Thank you. What's your name?
I'm Ko Se-gyeong.
Ik-sun and I live in the same building.
I'm her closest friend here.
Hello?
Yes, Se-gyeong.
I know I said this earlier, but when Ik-sun's out…
It doesn't matter how late it is.
Can you please tell her to call me right away?
Yes, I will.
But you really don't need to worry.
Her injury isn't serious.
Okay, thank you.
This is nuts…
Why are you still up?
My girlfriend is supposed to call me.
Do you need a drinking buddy?
No, thanks. Just do your thing.
All right.
Hello? Are you okay?
Thank goodness you're not seriously hurt.
What about the driver?
Everyone's fine. That couple's already at the place we're staying.
You're not "fine."
Your brain CT scan showed bleeding in the brain,
and you hurt your arm too. How's that "fine"?
It's not like my skull is broken.
And it's only a tiny bit of blood. The doctor said it's negligible.
They told me I shouldn't be worried.
I'm really okay, babe. I'm totally fine.
Can't you tell from my voice?
Even if the CT scan looks okay now,
you could experience delayed injury symptoms.
The bleeding could get worse in the next two days.
Rest up and monitor it carefully.
If you have a headache, vomit, or feel dizzy, go to the ER right away.
Yes, sir.
Professor Kim, stop worrying about me and go to bed.
-Isn't it really late there now? -Yes, it's 2 a.m.
They want you to stay there today, right?
Yes, they want to monitor my condition tonight.
Gosh, I feel totally fine though.
I've wasted an entire day, so I'm going to check out
Bournemouth Pier tomorrow and take it easy.
What are you talking about? Rest up for the next two days
and just head back to London.
You should rest up tomorrow
and just head back home the next day.
Wouldn't you feel more comfortable at home?
I don't want to head back right away.
I'll step out for just a couple of hours.
I can take care of myself.
You can stop worrying about me, okay?
They're looking for me. I'll call you later.
No, I'll call you when I'm leaving the hospital tomorrow.
Go to bed.
I feel so bad that you stayed up because of me.
I'm sorry.
I love you. Feel better soon.
Okay, I will.
I hate it when I don't feel well.
Sweet dreams, babe. I love you.
Bye.
YULJE MEDICAL CENTER
Shall we go see Ba-da now?
-Sure. -Hello, Professor Ahn.
Hello.
Professor Ahn, we were only going to keep Seo-a on antibiotics until today.
Should we stick to the plan?
Yes, we'll take her off it as of tomorrow.
Dr. Do Jae-hak, please do a good job with the surgery.
Don't worry, Professor.
You can count on me.
Jeez, I feel like all you've learned is to be a smooth talker.
This will take long if you two have it easy.
But if I have it easy, it'll be quick.
Please make sure I can have it easy today. You can do that, right?
Well, I'll do my best.
Hey!
Professor Ahn, Ba-da's mother is very worried.
We told her it'll be a simple surgery,
but she's worried about the general anesthesia and scarring.
Of course, she's worried.
To a mom, there's no such thing as a simple surgery.
Professor Ahn.
Do you have a kid?
Me? Yes. Many, in fact.
I think of all the kids I've treated as my own.
Hello.
He really is like a saint.
I agree.
I read the draft for your thesis.
I know it's a complex topic. You did a great job.
I know you're saying that because you don't want to hurt my feelings.
I want your honest opinion. I won't be hurt.
Well…
How about we have some coffee?
Sure, I'll go make some now.
Do you like it mild in the morning?
Yes, thanks. No, I'll do it.
Just print the draft, Seon-bin.
-Let's look at it together. -Sure.
Professor Chae, are you going back to Sokcho tonight?
No, tomorrow morning. I only have appointments in the afternoon.
-You want dark roast, right? -Yes, thank you.
No problem.
We'll perform the surgery early tomorrow morning.
She can eat anything she wants until bedtime tonight,
but she shouldn't eat or drink anything tomorrow, including water.
Is Ba-da a big eater?
Yes, she is. She gets so greedy with food.
Oh, no.
You can give her food four hours after the surgery,
so just be careful until tomorrow morning.
Do you have any questions about the surgery tomorrow?
How long will it take?
The surgery itself will take about an hour.
But including the time we need to move her to the OR and put her under…
I'd say three hours at the most.
We'll be performing a procedure called "thyroglossal duct cyst excision."
We'll make an incision of about 3 to 5cm on the neck
and remove the cyst.
It'll leave a noticeable scar, right?
Well, the incision will be about this big.
Even if we try to make it smaller,
it'll be about this big.
She's been doing that to everyone she sees.
Yes, pinky swear.
The surgery will go well, and you'll recover in no time, Ba-da.
Okay!
Did anything come up with Sim Eun-yeong?
We checked her cervix.
It's about 1cm, so it hasn't dilated further.
But she is having regular contractions,
and her pulse has increased to 120. She is having a hard time,
so we took her off ritodrine and switched to atosiban.
She's also on betamethasone.
What about a chest X-ray? Any signs of pulmonary edema?
No, we checked. No signs of pulmonary edema.
But the patient is very worried.
You'd like me to have a look at her, right?
Yes.
All right.
-Min-ha. -Yes?
Ask away.
How did you know?
Can you read my mind?
No. Of course, I can't. I saw what you were writing down.
TO ASK OR NOT TO ASK THAT IS THE QUESTION
Are you Hamlet?
What's your question?
Can patient Kim Ye-ji be discharged?
That's what I wanted to ask you.
She's not nitrazine positive, right?
No, she's not. And no pooling is detected.
That's a relief.
I'll let her know when I'm doing rounds.
-Let's go. She must be waiting. -Okay.
Your liver somatic index looks good.
The immunosuppressant levels look good too.
And your kidneys are working fine too. Everything looks good.
Any other concerns?
It's nothing serious,
I can't digest food as well as I used to.
My stomach gets upset often.
As I've explained before,
the gallbladder is removed during a liver transplant,
which can cause digestive problems temporarily.
Try to stay away from greasy foods
and make sure you exercise regularly.
Yes, I took your advice and have been exercising regularly.
Don't you worry, Doctor. I'll make sure she never becomes lax.
She's finally healthy.
Don't worry about her exercise routine and diet.
My gosh, okay. Keep up the good work.
Then I'll see you in a month.
-Okay. -Oh, right.
-You live in Jinhae, don't you? -Yes.
It must be tiring to come all the way here.
What time did you leave?
-We got here last night. -My gosh.
We got here in the wee hours
and slept on the bench in the lobby.
We used to get a motel room in the past,
but it's hard to get a room these days.
And we'd have to check out early in the morning anyway,
so we didn't want to waste money.
Still, it's important that you get enough sleep.
Don't you also have an appointment with our neurologist?
You were treated for a cerebral infarction.
That's right! You're so smart.
My gosh.
So I've been told.
When is that appointment? You'll have to come back for it.
Can you find out?
Just a moment, please.
It's on March 25.
Yes, March 25. It's with Professor Yoon Mi-hye, right?
Yes, that's right.
Hold on. Does that mean
