Doctor John (의사요한)

Save me.

Doctor. I want to live.

Save me.

Save me.

Dr. Cha, please promise me...

that you'll...

help me recover...

from this illness.

I'll do my best.

I'll give it my best.

So you also...

need to stay strong.

Okay, I'll stay strong.

Help me.

I have CIPA.

Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis.

He put on a show this far.

How can someone who has CIPA treat patients?

I will report him myself.

Lastly, do you have anything to say to the patients out there...

who are suffering from pain?

I have nothing to say.

Pardon?

There's nothing I can say to console their pain.

But I promise that I'll do my best to get rid of...

and reduce the pain that they have.

Dr. Cha, we just got the test results.

And the numbers are a little odd.

The galactomannan value needs to be over 0.5 to be considered positive.

And he got 0.6.

Why did you want to see me?

Do you remember telling me that you'll...

leave it to the patients to judge what kind of doctor you are?

You can break your bones, cut your flesh,

get a burn, and suffer from frostbite.

But you still won't be able to feel any pain.

So how will it be possible for you to understand your patients?

Is that why it was so easy for you to euthanize someone?

Because you think of pain as something you study...

rather than something you feel?

I know it's too late to hold a retrial,

but I'm going to question your qualifications as a doctor...

on whether or not you have the right...

to care for the patients.

Are you done?

I'm very busy, so I'll get going if you're finished.

Dr. Cha.

Why did you come see me if you know about my illness...

and thought I didn't deserve to treat patients?

What did you want to check?

Did you want to check if I was being honest or hypocritical?

I'm sorry, but as I told you before, my patients are the only ones...

who have the right to decide whether I'm qualified or not.

Are you confident?

Are you confident that your patients will continue to trust you...

without feeling betrayed even after they find out about you?

Even in this very moment, a patient of mine...

is lying in bed unconscious.

Whether I can save that patient or not.

That's what's important to me.

How are you acquainted with Mr. Lee Won Gil?

Dr. Cha, you need to get over here.

I don't know if he's conscious or if his eyes are just open.

I can't check because he can't react to pain.

Gi Seok, can you hear me?

Gi Seok, I want you to follow my finger.

Gi Seok, try moving your hand.

Try moving your feet.

Gi Seok, I want you to blink...

if you can hear me.

Locked-in syndrome. - Locked-in syndrome.

"Lee Won Gil"?

I don't know who he is. Am I supposed to know him?

What if...

there's a drug that allows you to die comfortably in happiness?

And what if...

someone was to allow you to use that drug?

"Die in happiness"?

How can there be a drug like that?

Life and death aren't that simple.

If you feel the urge to die and you see that drug right next to you,

do you think you'll just take it and die?

And even if someone wishes to die,

all living beings have an instinct to stay alive...

up until the very moment they breathe their last breath.

That's human nature, and it doesn't change that easily.

And that's why every living being...

is very pitiful.

Hello? - Did he admit to it?

Yes.

Now, all that's left for him is to lose his medical license.

This isn't enough to make him lose his medical license.

But we'll at least be able to get him fired from that hospital.

Once people find out that they were being treated...

by a doctor who can't even feel pain,

many patients will start to question his medical diagnosis.

I want you to calm down first.

Let's think about what to do.

What's there to think about?

I have a lot on my mind other than this issue.

Let's talk about this next time.

Prosecutor Son.

Locked-in syndrome?

Yes.

We must find out what caused it.

Depending on the cause, the prognosis can be good or bad.

At least now he can communicate with you...

by blinking.

Do you know any of Gi Seok's friends...

whom we could ask what happened?

Yes.

Someone called to ask how he's doing.

Could you ask that friend to come to the hospital?

Yes. I'll ask him.

We can relax a bit now.

If we just identify the cause...

What is it?

It's nothing.

How much longer do I have...

as a doctor?

Dr. Cha. - You're awake.

I dozed off. - You stayed all night?

Did you get some sleep?

Yes. You did a lot of studying.

I found this.

A research team at Clevlend Clinic...

is studying pain management...

with the CIPA gene.

They should have much more data...

and material on CIPA cases.

Shall I contact them?

Why?

It's nothing. Can I take a look at this?

Yes.

You must stay strong...

if Gi Seok's to have the energy to fight.

At least now he can blink to communicate.

We made progress.

Right.

That's it. As my mom said, food is energy!

She said that.

Eat up.

Excuse me.

Yes, Dr. Cha.

Gi Seok. Did you inject yourself with steroids while working out?

This. If I'm right, blink once.

If not, blink twice.

Did you go to a new place other than the gym?

Where? - Ask yes or no questions.

Oh, right.

Excuse me.

Just a moment.

SBS E25 'Doctor John' "Eun Jeong's Exposure" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Dr. Cha, I have something to tell you.

I met Gi Seok's friend.

Assault? He was assaulted?

Yes. A group of kids bullied Gi Seok.

He was dragged to a warehouse and beaten up.

A warehouse?

Hey.

Hey. Do you really not feel pain?

Hey. Does this not hurt?

Stop it.

Hey. Get up.

Stab a knife. You did it before.

Gi Seok. - Gi Seok.

I don't do that anymore.

Move.

Is that so?

I'll make you feel pain. - Come here.

He hit his head?

Yes.

How about this?

That must've hurt. Oh, no.

Come on, Gi Seok.

Where do you think you're going? - Fight back, Gi Seok.

Fight, Gi Seok. - Where are you going?

Let's do a CTA.

Do you suspect something?

Vertebral artery dissection.

Doctor.

The first CT didn't show anything.

If it's acute, cerebral infarctions don't show up in CTs.

We'll test right away.

What's the matter?

If his vertebral artery is dissected,

his prognosis...

will be very bad.

We don't know the result yet. Let's check first.

Ma'am, your patient's here.

Okay, thanks.

This garden was made...

by the voluntary workers at this hospice.

When they are indoors, they only talk about being sick.

But out here, they can talk about beautiful things...

such as flowers and trees.

I can't smell the flowers,

but I can hear the birds singing...

and the breeze blowing...

through the leaves.
