Doctor Shin (닥터신)

(All characters, places, and organizations are fictional.)

(Children were filmed under production guidelines.)

Mr. Ha is a bit superstitious, isn't he?

I've heard a lot of celebrities are into that.

Usually, it's the agency heads who seek those things out.

But at my company, they were all raised Christian,

so they can't stand it.

Are you thinking of seeing someone?

Just from time to time.

I wish my mom had gone to see one.

I sometimes think it would've been better than therapy.

I wish there were a pill that would let me sleep for a few years.

You don't have a care in the world, do you?

- You do? - I've been through my fair share

when I was developing my game.

There was no guarantee of success.

I was getting older, and I only had a GED.

Who was your celebrity crush?

I didn't have one.

What about now?

I never said I did.

You said you "didn't," past tense. Doesn't that mean you have one now?

You're right. I should be honest.

Of course you should.

It's you, Momo.

Oh, my.

Really?

Yes.

From what role?

I didn't fall for one of your characters.

I guess you could say I fell for you.

But you don't even really know me.

If it weren't for Ju Shin,

you wouldn't have even known I existed, would you?

That may be true.

I heard games were everything to you from Mr. Ha.

That's not wrong.

I bet my life on them.

Are you going to keep dedicating your life to work?

It's not like I'm doing it all by myself anymore,

and I'm starting to think I want to live like other people.

But anyway, my brother has to get married first.

That's going to be tough for Mr. Ha.

His standards are sky-high.

I'm right here.

Look no further.

What is it?

The chef wanted to know how you enjoyed your meal.

The portions were a bit large, but it was excellent.

- Same here. - I'll pass that along.

You have a bigger appetite than I expected.

I'm at the right age for it.

My late mother used to love seeing people heartily enjoy their food.

That's such a sweet memory.

I wonder if our dinner tonight

will become a fond memory too.

Do you have surgery tomorrow?

Pretty much every day.

Whatever you do, don't take up horseback riding.

So many people get injured.

Seungil Shipping's youngest daughter...

She had a bad fall two years ago, and I struggled to treat her concussion,

but she went riding again...

They say riding horses is more addictive than meth.

Is it really that bad?

- Is that a real saying? - Yes, it is.

Can't say the same for cows or sheep, though.

You're surprisingly quirky and fun.

Who's texting you this late?

It's for my taxi.

- I will drive you. - No, that's okay.

I'm not sure how to feel about that.

Are you wary of me?

Yes.

A woman has to be careful these days.

Isn't it rude to be that honest?

I don't want to impose.

How is it an imposition? My driver's waiting.

Please don't get out.

Thank you.

Alright.

What is it?

What's wrong?

I feel dizzy.

Dizzy how?

Open your eyes.

I can't.

Open them.

What's the passcode?

It's 1103.

I've got you.

It'll pass soon.

Okay, first, I'm going to turn your head to the left, 45 degrees.

I'm going to count to 35.

One, two, three,

four...

You'll feel better soon.

One, two, three...

Ever think about getting on an operating table?

Lie down just once, and I can change your life.

Go on in.

I'm sorry. It was an important call.

Of course.

Have you ever been to this house?

No.

My father never invited you over?

- No. - Are you feeling better?

Yes.

I've barely been here since my father passed.

I just don't find myself stopping by.

They say a house needs people living in it to keep it from falling apart.

That rock

is really cool and refreshing to sit on.

When I got sleepy from studying, I'd come out here to wake myself up.

You don't like small dogs?

Maybe it's because I was small and skinny.

I'm drawn to big dogs.

But he isn't a big dog.

How am I supposed to raise a Retriever in Yong Joong's apartment?

You can raise ten Retrievers

in this house.

Border Collies, Jindo dogs, Chow Chows, Tibetan Mastiffs...

You can have all the dogs you want,

and we can live here, together.

It's cliché, but I'm proposing

over two glasses of cold water.

I'm not asking for much.

Just have my children and raise them well.

I think we're on the same wavelength

when we talk or have any thoughts.

I can have a decent conversation

- with just about anyone... - I can't.

I'm selective.

Stop overthinking and complicating things.

It's not about conditions...

I'm not qualified,

and we're not a match.

What isn't?

Look, we're both on our own now. No parents, no siblings.

So what doesn't match?

I've never even considered it.

And it's completely out of the question.

Nothing's out of the question.

Everything people do is more or less the same.

Marriage.

They call it one of life's most important events,

but it's just a man and a woman living together.

What's so special about that?

Isn't it meaningful

to stay together with hearts unchanged and not to get a divorce?

I know what you mean.

You're not wrong,

but you never know until you try.

So you're rejecting me without a second thought?

I'm taking that to mean you find me completely undesirable.

It's the opposite.

You know best that,

as for qualifications, I'm the worst possible choice.

I said let's not worry about qualifications.

I don't know my roots.

The first humans...

Think about the first life-form. Did it have roots?

The sky was their father and the earth was their mother, right?

Like the digital zero and one,

life began from the combination of yin and yang.

Are these so-called qualifications that people came up with

really that important?

That's all they are. Just things.

- You have a point, but... - If I have a point, then don't argue.

You don't see me as a man?

To be honest...

Then start now.

You could at least try.

As a man, I'm flawless.

A loveless marriage?

Do you even know what love is?

Define it. What is it?

- Haven't you ever told Momo you love her? - Leave Momo out of this.

This is about us.

I'm interested in you, Geum Ba Ra.

Since when?

This interest of yours could just fade.

Even if it does,

- let's do it. - What are you really thinking?

Is it like, "I'm not hungry, but the table's set."

"Even if it's not appealing, let's just go through with it?"

- Is that what this is? - No.

Stop questioning me.

I hate complications.

And I especially hate having to explain myself.

If you were my patient, I'd patiently explain everything to you.

I really can't.

Because of your background?

Or are you saying the problem is me?

It's both.

I'm sorry.

But I do appreciate

you thinking so highly of me.

I should get going.

Is it because of Momo?
