DOCTOR ON THE EDGE

THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION SOME SCENES WERE GENERATED USING AI

CHILD ACTORS AND ANIMALS WERE FILMED SAFELY

IF I JUST TOUGH IT OUT, THINGS WILL WORK OUT SOMEHOW

EPISODE 12

Good work.

Thank you.

- Well done, everyone. - Thank you, Mr. Park.

Oh, my, I guess you've been making round trips empty-handed for days.

Heaven knows traveling back and forth to the mainland is no easy feat.

PUBLIC HEALTH CENTER

DO NOT APPROACH

Hello, Mr. Park.

Are you and the others free tomorrow?

Uh, why do you ask?

We can't have you doing nothing while the center's closed.

You should help out the residents.

Huh?

Ugh, it's not like you're performing surgery.

If you spend half an hour with a single oyster,

when are we going to shuck all of these?

I'm a surgeon, so I'm a little detail-orientated.

Oh, spare us the speech.

Uh, then does yours look like that because you're internal medicine?

Oh, come on…

Oh, I haven't chosen a specialty yet.

Our doctors are good at other things, but this isn't really…

They really should get back to doing what they're good at.

- I know, right? - Goodness…

My specialty's shucking oysters.

Oh, my…

That governor's such a snake though.

Everyone knows that our doctors are innocent, damn it.

What do you say? Should we take the fight to him?

You don't take on a snake like that head-on.

To beat his kind in a fight…

What should we do?

Tough it out with all your might.

True that.

- True. - You're right.

- That's how you beat them. - Mmm, mm-hmm.

- That's right. - True.

Oh, "tough it out," huh?

Hello?

Dr. Yong…

Can you come over for a moment?

Huh? What's wrong, Ms. Eom?

My stomach… My stomach is hurting right now…

Okay, okay, I'll head over right now!

Ms. Eom, Ms. Eom…

Can you give me your hand?

Your pulse is too fast and your temperature has dropped too much.

We need to get you to a hospital. I'll call a medical boat.

Let's wait a bit before we go.

Huh?

Everyone will find out if we call a medical boat.

I'll take the earliest ferry…

So no one finds out.

Something terrible will happen if you keep this up!

It's because I'd rather die than have the others find out.

If you'd rather die…

Then I'll stay by your side.

Okay?

PUBLIC HEALTH CENTER CLOSED

Holy crap!

Wow!

What about Dr. Jucheon?

He seemed to leave early in the morning.

Who knows?

Maybe he bailed to avoid shucking oysters?

Come on. Even he wouldn't sink that low.

- No way. - It's totally possible.

I wanted to bail too.

Same.

Ko Changmok!

Oy, you're a dead man. What are you staring at, you bastard?

Isn't that Yeom Byeongcheol?

Don't you look down on me!

He seems drunk, right?

- Ko Changmok, you're freaking dead. - That seems to be the case.

I'm coming for you, okay?

Damn it!

And he's going to drive that thing?

You're right.

Hold on. Hold on!

Mr. Yeom Byeongcheol, wait! Wait!

Mr. Yeom Byeongcheol!

Damn it, seriously…

What are we going to do?

What are we going to do?

- Oh, goodness! - Hey, hey!

How are things looking down there?

His legs seem to be fine.

But he's losing a lot of blood on his face.

We should get him to the center right now.

He's about to go into shock.

Let's take a look at him.

Mr. Yeom,

- can you tell where we are right now? - Yes.

- Do you recall getting into an accident? - Yes.

- What's going on? - We have a drunk motorcycle wreck.

- We should clean the wound and suture it. - No, you can't.

If any of you touch a single thing here, it's theft.

We should wait for the medical boat...

It'll be too late.

Administrative orders don't work that way. You'll get in big trouble!

No. We could all end up in handcuffs, okay?

Huh?

Goodness, Ms. Hari!

Oh, my…

What are you trying to do?

I'm the one who stole this, so…

You guys focus on treating him.

Oh, gosh, Hari…

Why would you take such a risk for me?

You guys don't even like me.

Keep your mouth shut, please.

Uh…

This side should be fine once we dress the wound.

Yes, that should be fine.

A little ointment will be enough.

Are you hurting anywhere else?

A SONG HOSPITAL OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY

Ms. Eom,

are you okay?

What happened?

You passed out on the ferry.

Uh,

you had an ectopic pregnancy, so they had to operate on you right away.

This wasn't your fault.

No one chooses to have an ectopic pregnancy, so…

I'm so utterly pathetic.

M-Ms. Eom…

Do you know what I thought about just now?

"What a relief."

"I'm glad I didn't have to make a choice in the end."

Um…

You're still in shock, and this all happened so abruptly...

I know you're also relieved.

What do you mean by that?

You were scared you'd have to take responsibility for me because of the baby.

You were sighing all the time,

and you looked like you were being led to a slaughterhouse.

You're right.

I was also scared, if I'm being honest.

I'm only 26.

Was I supposed to just be happy about it without a second thought?

I was scared, sure. But…

But still…

I'm not relieved that this happened.

Right now,

I'm just sorry about what happened to you and I'm concerned for your health.

But you know what?

I get that you're only saying that because you're upset right now,

but please don't say such cruel things to me.

If you keep saying those things…

If you keep saying those things

it hurts me too.

I'll get you some water.

What do you mean, we were trespassing?

We were saving a person's life.

The health center is temporarily closed right now, you see?

Using the clinic itself is trespassing and illegal medical practice.

Then do we just turn a blind eye to an injured person?

Jeez, this is frustrating for us too.

But those are the rules, and my hands are tied.

Why'd you have to go and make even more trouble?

One wrong move, and all of you are going to get an official warning.

Um, I was actually acting on my...

I…

I did it.

- Ms. Hwang! - Stop.

- Uh, that's not what... - I… I stole it.

I stole the medicine chest and the equipment.

These people had no part in it, so direct your questions to me.

If you got an official warning for something like this,

your life as a civil servant would be over.

Oh, gosh…

I was the one who did it. I should take responsibility.

I've been on the job for 25 years,

so it's right that I take responsibility.

I should have broken that medicine chest

instead of hesitating like a fool.

I'm sorry.

Why would you say that? Come on…

I'm just sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I couldn't offer any assistance.

I thought the governor would be convinced if it were the materials Dr. Do gave him.

But the governor

pinned all the corruption of the helipad

on Yeom Byeongcheol.

As of right now,

there is no way to fight and win against the governor.

Still, I don't think the center should be shut down,

which is why I've come up with a solution.

With an election ahead,

right now is a crucial time for the governor.

He won't want to fight with Pyeondongdo,

since every vote is going to count.

He's simply letting his anger and pride do the talking.
