Cross (Keuroseu / 크로스)

What brings you here, Doctor?

I came for an interview.

Please show me your I.D.

Isn't Myungin University the top medical university in Korea?

It is.

He was top of his class, and passed the board exam with a perfect score.

- This is impressive. - Thank you.

What about his psychological test scores?

- His scores are good. - They're not just good.

With qualifications at this level, he has a brilliant mind, just brilliant.

It looks like you worked at Myungin University Hospital until now.

It's your fourth year of residency as a surgeon.

That's right.

If you had endured a few more months, you would've become a specialist.

So why did you quit?

- It didn't suit my character. - What? Being a doctor?

Or... your specialty?

My specialty didn't suit my character.

You could've just switched specialties instead of quitting then.

The apprentice system and hospital atmosphere didn't suit me.

It isn't because you caused an accident?

An accident?

Why else would a fourth-year resident doctor quit a major hospital?

A medical accident. Or...

an issue involving a woman.

- That's not it. - I can find out with one call.

I can find out why you quit the hospital.

If you doubt me, then go ahead and ask the chief professor.

Don't feel insulted. Prisons are a special place

so he wants to be meticulous.

It's okay.

Then let me ask you this.

Is a relative of yours imprisoned here, by any chance?

- No, Sir. - Then...

do you hold a grudge against someone here?

No, Sir.

- What the hell? - What?

- What the hell is this? - What the hell?

What the hell is he doing?

Gae Sang.

Hey, Yoon Gae Sang!

People would find it unbearable.

I bet you didn't know when you stabbed me and left...

that we'd meet here.

Ho... how are you here...

I've always been here, waiting for you to show up.

Hyung Bum, ca... calm down, okay?

I really needed money at the time.

Let... let me explain what happened...

I'll give you all the money.

I had no choice at the time!

Please, put that down, you son of a bitch!

Guard! Guard...

Unless you have an ulterior motive

there's no reason for you to apply to a prison.

With qualifications like these, and just two months till you become a specialist.

Then, Doctor, are you here because you lack qualifications?

- Excuse me? - If it's as you just said...

you must have another reason for being here.

Unless you're lacking in qualifications, that is.

I simply want to take care of the patients...

I applied for this position for the same exact reason.

It's because of my little sister...

who passed away because she couldn't get treated in time.

- I'll be back. - Make lots of money, okay?

My sister, who had biliary atresia...

constantly had high fevers and went into comas...

So when my father wasn't around

I had to run to the hospital with my sister on my back.

Is anyone there? Please save my sister!

It wasn't easy finding a hospital that was open at night...

- What's wrong with you? - Just this once.

- Go! - Please!

- Do you have a conscience? - Just this once.

Just this once!

And even when I found an open hospital...

we were kicked out because we had no money.

Please...

save my sister.

Please.

Anyone can go to a university hospital

and if they have money, they can get treated.

But I wanted to help the neglected

who don't have the power or money to go to such hospitals.

The kind of people...

who can't go to the hospital, even when they want to.

Do you have anything left to say?

No.

Then, please wait outside for a moment.

I'm against hiring Kang In Kyu.

Wait, what's the problem this time?

It's a waste of resources to hire a surgeon for a prison.

You keep saying "prison."

But we took exams to get here, you know. We're national public servants!

This prison is worthy of having such a talented individual!

One doctor of internal medicine, and one surgeon. It's perfect.

- I approve. - I approve too.

I'm the only one with the right to hire for the medical department.

He said... he wanted nothing else...

but for you to die...

He told me to kill you.

Did you sleep soundly after listening to that bastard and betraying me?

What else was I supposed to do then?

If I hadn't done that, he would've killed me.

- Hey, stop! - Hey, what are you doing?

Medic!

It's an emergency!

He has an abdominal stab wound.

It's an aortic rupture.

What are you doing? Do something.

- Doctor! - Wait

where's the emergency detention center?

They carried Prisoner Park Sang Pyo out this morning.

- Then, call 911... - We already did.

Wait, this...

You can't!

He'll die as soon as you pull it out.

How long does it take to get to the nearest major hospital?

- About an hour. - He won't last long this way.

What do we do then?

- We need to operate. - Op... operate?

What are you doing, Doctor Park?

I... I can't do it.

I'm an internal medicine specialist.

You're a surgeon. You're a surgeon, right? Do something.

If this prisoner dies, we'll all die.

Do you have a patient monitor?

Yes, we do, but...

What about an anesthetic machine?

- We have one. - I need to perform a laparotomy

so please bring me all the necessary equipment.

- A laparotomy? - A... a laparotomy?

You're going to cut his chest open here?

Who do you think you are? Do you want to kill him?

It's an aortic rupture, if we don't operate right away, he'll die.

I'm the person in charge here. If something happens to him

- will you take the responsibility? - Then should we leave him to die

when we can save him?

- Can you do it? - Yes.

I haven't decided if I'll hire him yet!

Only our registered medical personnel can treat patients

- during a medical emergency. - So...

am I hired or not?

Decide already!

I'm warning you now, if something goes wrong...

I won't be held responsible.

In one go. One, two, three.

I'll begin.

Okay.

Scalpel.

Bovie.

- You must take it out in one go. - Okay.

One, two, three.

Self-Retaining Retractor.

Gauze.

Vascular clamp.

Deaver.

Forceps.

Suture.

Please leave the scissors beside me.

His BP is unstable.

- Tell me the numbers. - 75/50.

It's continuing to drop.

Hook him up to the Hartmann solution

and assist me with it.

Yes, I'll do that.

- Is the blood ready? - Yes.

Give me all the Type A blood you have.

BP is 70/40. 60/30.

He might go into cardiac arrest.

Prepare the defibrillator.

Get out of the way. You can't touch the defibrillator with those hands.

200 Joules.

200 Joules.

- Charged. - Clear.

Shoot.

What are you doing? Give him the blood transfusion.

300 Joules.

300 Joules.

- Charged. - Clear.

Shoot.

What do we do?

The BP won't go up, even with the transfusion.

- Pardon? - What is it this time?

Did he have any other wounds?

No.

No, not that I know of.

I didn't see any.

Guard!

Let's leave the rest to a major hospital.

The bleeding is so severe, he could go into cardiac arrest again.

The ambulance will be here soon. Let's leave the rest to them.

He'll die at this rate!

What's that?

I'll continue with the anastomosis.

You worked hard today. You did a really good job.

Oh, thank you.

Good job.

But if anything goes wrong

you'll be held responsible.
