Cross (Keuroseu / 크로스)

[The characters, groups, places and situations in this drama are fictional.]

Doctor Kang.

This is yours.

I hope I can look after you, no matter where I end up.

Just like how you came back for me that night.

It looks like...

Dad also signed the oath that day.

The government has been speaking up about illegal organ trade.

Shockingly, the center chief of a major hospital was recently

found to be involved.

The police found fabricated organ donation forms and related call records

inside the suspect's car

which will be added to the charges against him.

However, the hospital claims that he acted alone

and that the hospital had no involvement whatsoever...

That's our old man. He used his brain.

But what will he do? That only benefits me.

The police revealed that it seems like he paid fake donors

to illegally buy and sell organs.

Geez, you successfully avoided a crisis.

I was so worried, I couldn't sleep a wink.

How is it going on your end?

- I've already set it up. - Really?

Then get it done already. Don't waste any time.

That's why I'm calling. I want to get it done.

- But? - But...

I don't have enough money.

How much?

- One bill. - 100 million?

Why are you being like that? You're missing a zero.

Okay, I'll see you tomorrow.

Yes, Sir.

You're too worked up right now. You won't get any information like this.

You saw it too. The evidence they talked about on the news.

Those were documents that Dad gathered to uncover the truth about the trade.

How could they conduct such a baseless investigation?

Don't go.

It will end the same way it did in Kim Chul Ho's case.

What did Dad abandon his family to protect?

Patients and regulations! That's it!

Those people are ruining Dad's life right now!

Then let's go together.

I'll come with you.

I mean...

how can they reveal information that hasn't even been confirmed yet?

Call logs? Fabricated documents? I'm speechless.

I'm disappointed in the hospital too. The center chief acted alone?

I don't know about the director, but there's no way Center Chief did this.

- Doctor Hwang. - Hey.

I'm... I'm sorry.

They found the fabricated documents in Center Chief's office

and the call logs show that he approached the seller.

What do you mean by that?

Are you suggesting that he participated in the dealings?

I didn't want to say this

but weren't you the one who operated on Congressman Noh?

Aren't you the one who participated in it, more than any of us?

Doctor, please calm down.

What I mean is...

how did that pass for evidence?

Unless someone intentionally planned it, that is.

I'm asking why Center Chief was charged

but his sudden death is the biggest question of all.

Shouldn't we submit a petition for a reinvestigation?

Okay, let's submit a petition or whatever else we can.

- Hurry and spread the news. - Yes, Sir.

But you only have circumstantial evidence.

How could you reveal such baseless investigation results?

If you don't correct this, I'll sue you for defamation.

We found fabricated documents for the fake organ donors

as well as call logs proving his attempts to contact the seller.

I already told you, he did that to uncover the truth about the trade!

Was Go Jung Hoon a police officer? He was a doctor.

Why did a doctor call a seller to uncover the truth?

Take a look at the call logs.

Besides... how do you explain that?

We found 200 million won in cash and related documents in his car.

The evidence has been fabricated.

But there's no evidence to refute it.

Did you find those inside my dad's car?

Do you think we put it there ourselves then?

That doesn't make any sense. There's no way.

My dad wouldn't have accepted money.

Family members always say that.

Do you think...

that maybe I didn't know my dad too well?

What do you mean?

If that money was really found in Dad's car--

Don't worry. There's no way.

Maybe I didn't know him very well since we lived apart for so long.

I was with him when you two lived apart.

Believe me. He wasn't that kind of person.

Thank you for saying that.

The truth is, that's all I wanted to hear.

Go on without me.

I have somewhere to go.

- Where are you going? - I'll tell you when I get back.

Please take me to Moojunggak.

The accident occurred at around 10 p.m.

Why did he come here and who did he meet?

Welcome. Do you have a reservation?

No, I came from Sunrim Hospital.

Oh, are you from Sunrim Hospital?

Would you like the Moram Room again?

That's the room that Chief Director Son and Director Lee reserve every time.

Did they reserve that room four days ago?

No, they didn't have a reservation four days ago.

Okay, thank you.

The transplant center staff is acting very suspiciously.

They submitted a petition to the police asking for a reinvestigation.

Is there something on my face?

What's your current salary?

A little over 70 million won.

How long have you worked here?

I've been with you since the beginning, so it's been 14 years now.

Then, it's time for a raise, isn't it?

Really? If you insist...

How old are your kids?

The older one is in fourth grade

and the younger one just started school.

Oh, really?

That's the perfect age to study abroad.

I'll pay for your kids' education, including college tuition

their living expenses, and give you 10 times your salary

in a single payment.

Pardon?

As long as you confess

that you gave Center Chief the fabricated documents yourself.

- Are you asking me to-- - If you do this...

you'll only get six months or less for workplace forgery.

And if you're lucky, you'll be released on probation.

You know how skilled our lawyer is.

You'd have to work for me for over 10 years for that kind of money.

You won't have to suck up to me or see any dirty deeds.

Will you take this opportunity

for yourself...

or will you let it go to someone else?

Honey.

Where did Sister-in-law's kids go to study abroad again?

Oh, that's right.

The Philippines, right?

You were sad that...

we couldn't send our kids then.

Do you still want to send them abroad?

Oh Gi Nam.

You're under arrest for participation in organ trade and workplace forgery.

Anyway, we're off the hook thanks to the PR manager.

Yes, we are.

Please dig in.

The winter fish won't give you food poisoning.

Oh, yes.

Did you say that Doctor Lee has been with us for eight years now?

You still remember that?

Of course.

Aren't we on the same boat now?

I feel like this might be the perfect timing.

How about we put Doctor Lee in the center chief's position?

He's still too young and inexperienced...

Why have you... changed your mind all of a sudden?

No, it's not that...

Where else...

would he get such an opportunity with those hands of his?

Besides Sunrim Hospital?

I'll ask him.

What did you watch? Didn't you hear the news?

They said that a hospital employee acquired the organ

and the center chief operated with it.

So they were both in on it.

- And the hospital was in the dark. - There's no way.

The center chief wasn't like that.

Geez, but look at who's usually behind these things?

It's always the quiet ones, isn't it?

He pretended to care for the patients while he snuck around doing that.

- Goodness, maybe you're right. - Yeah, that's it.

- Gosh, how could he do that? - I know.

Coordinator Go.

Don't worry about what other people say.

It doesn't matter as long as we stay strong.

I don't get shaken up that easily.

I just...

feel bad for my dad, who only cared about his patients.

He didn't do that expecting that people would see it.

So let's not expect that from them either.

We just have to prove the kind of life

that he lived.

Doctor Kang!

- Are you going home? - Yes.

Why don't we go together then? I'm heading home too.

His name is Kang In Kyu.

He entered Sunrim Hospital to find out who ordered his father's dissection

and who got his father's kidney.

Oh, Dad!

Oh, Yeon Hee.

Dad, you haven't met Doctor Kang before, have you?

In the process of providing transplants to powerful people

who benefits the most?

Who has the authority to let this happen?

Let me formally introduce myself. I'm a resident, Kang In Kyu.

I've heard about you.

I know it's hard, but please work hard for us.
