The first 200 lines.
Professor Yang, it's me, Min-ha.
Do you have any plans for this evening?
If not, let's have dinner together at the steakhouse across the street.
At 7:30 p.m.
No pressure though. You don't have to come.
My friend lives in the area, so I can eat with her if you can't come.
But I really hope you can come.
SORRY, JUST HAVE DINNER WITH YOUR FRIENDS
SORRY, JUST HAVE DINNER WITH YOUR FRIENDS, MERRY CHRISTMAS
SORRY, JUST HAVE DINNER WITH YOUR FRIENDS
YOON SIN-HYE
Hello?
What about a CT scan?
He's conscious?
Yeah, he got a CT scan done.
The Professor of Neurosurgery said they'd just have to monitor him tonight.
Is that okay though?
I'll be there in a minute.
THE STEAKHOUSE IN FRONT OF THE HOSPITAL
You go ahead.
My gosh.
Yeah, please go ahead.
SORRY, JUST HAVE DINNER WITH YOUR FRIENDS
Hey, Seok-hyeong! You're still here?
This is Kang So-ye. She's a good friend of mine.
She's going to join our hospital as a fellow next year,
but she wanted to learn the job in advance. How kind!
Yes, thank you.
-Hello. -Hello.
Just now, Professor Yoon Seon-ju…
He was just admitted, right? Cerebral hemorrhage, in his seventies.
Yes, the CT scan shows ICH in the right basal ganglia.
I'd say about 15cc,
which isn't a lot, thankfully.
The CT angiogram shows no abnormalities.
His mental status is alert, but the left side motor response is poor.
We're going to monitor him all night. Why? Do you know him?
He's a famous professor.
Over here.
Who's on duty tonight for Neurosurgery?
Professor Choi Hyeong-su. He came and left.
Seok-hyeong.
Yes.
EMERGENCY CENTER
Who is she?
Cheers!
It's a Christmas gift from our chef. Enjoy.
What a stingy chef.
This is tiny!
THE STEAKHOUSE IN FRONT OF THE HOSPITAL
Wash up later. The bathroom's flooded right now.
Hey, where were you? I called you twice.
The study session ended just now. What's up? Is something up?
No, it's fine.
Liar. You're obviously not okay.
-What? -You miss me.
Gosh, what should we do? There's no medicine for this.
Should I come see you? Should I get on the bus now?
I really miss you a lot.
I miss you so much that I'm about to get a sty…
Hold on.
Go away. Get lost.
I'm off anyway.
I can't stand to watch any more of this.
Jeong-won dropped by.
Ik-sun, the ring got sent back to the hospital.
I received it today.
It got sent back? Why?
It just says, "Return to sender."
That's odd. I was home all week. Last week too.
Let me ask my friend in the room next to mine. I'll call you back.
All right.
He can't move one arm and threw up earlier.
Doesn't he need surgery?
No. It's only a little bit of blood, so the meds will do.
They're right in putting him on meds
that can lower the intracranial pressure and BP.
But what if the bleeding gets worse overnight?
What if his condition worsens?
The bleeding could increase.
But I'm sure the ICU staff will keep taking CT scans to check.
If the bleeding worsens, we'll insert a long tube
called a catheter to drain the blood.
If the bleeding worsens significantly,
we'll go into surgery right away.
But at the moment, we don't know.
We have no idea whether or not the bleeding will worsen,
so let's wait and see. We can decide later.
This is why it's important to know someone who works in a hospital.
Thank you for stopping by.
No problem.
The ICU is full at the moment, so he'll have to wait a little.
You should sit down and get some rest. It won't take too long.
See if you can speed it up a little…
for old times' sake.
Okay.
Did you have dinner?
No.
He suddenly collapsed on our way to a family dinner.
So we brought him here.
None of us had dinner.
I see.
Mom must be hungry.
Is there a gimbap place nearby? Or even just a convenience store.
Yes, there's a gimbap place across the street.
It should still be open.
-Come with me. -What?
Okay.
It's snowing a lot outside.
-It's okay. -Thank you.
We're stepping out to get gimbap. It'll be quick.
Let's go, Seok-hyeong.
It's so cold!
Oh, no. What should I do?
I'm here. I'm right in front of the ER now.
My gosh, it's snowing so much right now.
I just saw your text.
You're back already? You said you had a date this evening.
Did I?
I was joking. A date, my foot.
Anyway, I'm heading in now.
Wait at the station, okay?
Gosh, it's so cold.
-Merry Christmas. -Merry Christmas.
The half-dried herring actually goes quite well with wine.
-Doesn't it? -Yes, it's very nice.
Good choice, Kettle.
What kettle? What brand is it?
He calls me Kettle, Mr. Kettle.
Oh, I see.
What are you doing? Hurry up!
It must be good news, right?
That's what you want to tell me. That's why you're coming to see me!
What is the good news that you're thinking of?
What do you think? You staying right by my side forever, obviously.
Let's talk in person on the weekend.
Okay. I'll be waiting, with the red carpet rolled out just for you.
I love you, son!
Jong-su, pour me some wine. All the way to the top.
What's going on? What did Jeong-won say?
Sounds like he decided not to quit.
Really?
That's great.
My, that's such good news. Great news!
Really? He told me that he was leaving soon.
He's not going anywhere. He's had a change of heart.
He's visiting Yangpyeong this Sunday,
but his flight was booked for this Sunday.
What does that mean? Clearly, he's decided to stay!
And I think Jeong-won's got a girlfriend.
What does her family do?
What does her father do?
How would I know? And who cares what her family does?
I'm just grateful that my 40-year-old son has finally got a girlfriend!
That's such great news for the hospital.
I was really worried about how I'd manage Pediatric Surgery without him.
PEDIATRIC SURGERY AHN JEONG-WON
Gosh, it's Professor Ahn.
Answer it. Hurry, quick!
Hi, Professor Ahn. What's up?
Me? I'm with your mother now.
Right.
Can I stop by your office for a moment tomorrow morning?
I need to have a word with you.
Yes, of course. You can stop by for ten hours, if you'd like.
You can come by anytime.
Okay. Then I'll come by before my outpatient appointments.
Great, I'll see you tomorrow.
Hey, what's our next song?
"I'm okay now. I've given up on love."
"Why am I crying like a fool?" By the way…
Someone's dating.
Seok-hyeong is seeing someone, right?
Well, I'm not sure. He didn't say anything to me.
The song choice is pretty suspicious.
Hey! I figured out why. My goodness.
Hold on. Hold on a second.
Just a second.
It got sent back because no one was there?
That's the way it's done here.
The mailman must have come when I stepped out for a moment last week.
Se-gyeong told me they'd redeliver it
if I called the post office and confirmed the details,
but I'd have to call right away.
I can't believe it got sent back.
I'll send it again.
No, it's okay. What if something goes wrong again?
Just give it to me in person when I'm back in Korea.
When will that be?
I don't know.
All right. Then I'll hold onto it for now.
I don't want you to be stuck at home waiting for the ring.
How's studying going?
It's hard. I should've done this sooner. I'm physically struggling.
I get tired so easily.
Doesn't my face look weird now? Look.
You look pretty. You don't look weird at all.
I guess your friend is helping you out a lot.
Yes, Se-gyeong helps me out so much.
She came here just a little before I did, but she's like a native Londoner.
