What's going on?

There's a doubtful vessel on the radar.

Operator, report detections.

Radar one, reporting detections.

Heading 30 degrees, 3,000km away.

The vessel seems to immobile.

Attempting to contact the small target.

- Search for a signal for the ship. - Yes, sir.

Contacting the immobile vessel.

This is Coast Guard ship P-3008.

Do you read?

This is Korea Coast Guard.

Vessel heading 30 degrees.

Do you read me? Over.

This is Korea Coast Guard. Vessel heading 30 degrees.

Do you read me? Over.

This is Korea Coast Guard. Vessel heading 30 degrees.

Do you read me? Over.

This is Korea Coast Guard. Vessel heading 30 degrees.

Do you read me? Over.

There's no response.

This is the captain of 3008.

We've found a doubtful vessel. Please provide information.

Grant permission for inspection as well.

Upon inquiring with the navy, there is no information.

Granting permission for inspection.

Chief, carry out the inspection. Gather the inspection team.

Yes, sir.

Team One, take the wheelhouse.

Team Two, search the deck and engine room.

There could be an ambush, so keep your guard up.

If they open fire,

fire back right away and gain control. Got it?

Yes, sir!

Let's move.

Dolphin One, this is Alpha Ship.

Alpha, this is Dolphin One.

Check the vessel's condition and report back if it's possible to board.

Checking.

Alpha, this is Dolphin One.

Suspicious vessel not showing resistance. No obstacles in the way of boarding.

Able to board with our numbers and equipment. Awaiting orders.

Captain, should we board and take control?

Okay, board. Take control.

Dolphin, inspection team leader, board and take control.

Boarding. We will take control.

Drop your weapons. Hands in the air.

Where are we?

Where are you from?

We are the Korean Coast Guard.

Where are you from?

Help us.

We are from North Korea.

The traffic congestion heading to Seoul…

Today, six representatives from North Korea…

…crossed the DMZ in order to attend the summit--

It's four degrees in Seoul and the surrounding area,

but Gwangju is--

This song was requested by one of our listeners.

We'll be back with part 3 after the song.

When are the other doctors coming?

They'll be here soon. Please wait

just a little longer.

Do you hear that?

They're coming now.

P-3008, we're returning home. Report current weather status.

What's this?

They're kids.

They're the team that saved former Defense Minister Ryu Woongil's life.

Lieutenant Ko Eunho.

Hello, we're from Doldam Hospital.

I'm emergency physician Jung Insu.

This is surgeon Seo Woojin.

And this is nurse practitioner Park Euntak.

Let's see the patient first. We heard it was a gunshot.

- Before that, you must sign some forms. - What?

As of this moment, everything that occurs on this ship is strictly confidential.

You may only ask

the minimum information required about the patient for treatment.

If you do not comply,

you may be court-martialed for violation of national security laws.

National security…

There. Can we see the patient now?

This way.

Where's Master Kim?

Eunjae went to find him. We'll hear from her soon.

Wait up, Euntak.

You know,

there are three things I never do after sundown.

One of them is driving at night.

Does this make any sense right now?

I don't even drive on an eight-lane road in Seoul at nighttime.

But at this time of night,

and on a bumpy unpaved road at that?

Gosh.

- Oh, dear. - My goodness.

What are you doing, Dr. Jang? You still can't reach Master Kim?

I keep calling, but he's not picking up.

Gosh, Master Kim. Please pick up.

The world is lonely and melancholy

At times, you need a friend too

Even if you leave

For somewhere far away

This way.

You may go inside.

How are the patient's vitals?

What? Oh, right.

BP 100/70, heart rate 120.

Blood loss?

He had already lost a lot of blood when I got here.

I'm not sure exactly…

We'll take charge from now on. Step back.

Okay.

Step back.

Sir? Can you hear me?

He's in a stupor.

When did he lose consciousness?

I'm not sure about that either. He was like this when I got here.

Scissors, please.

Let's check his back.

One, two, three.

No exit wounds.

It means both bullets are still inside.

Let's see the ultrasound.

He has severe hemoperitoneum.

It's a liver injury, right?

Yes, it looks that way.

But there's too much blood, even up to the spleen.

Right? There could more bleeding.

Can we do general anesthesia?

Here, in the treatment room?

That might be hard. We don't have an anesthesiologist--

Dr. Jung, can you handle sedation?

Can we take him to a hospital?

I don't think he'll last.

He's lost a lot of blood, but he's in bad shape in general.

Also, he might be…

Why? What is it?

Is something else wrong?

There is a possibility of an IVC injury.

Where is the treatment room? Let's see your equipment first.

This is it.

This is the only place you can treat patients

on this ship.

It's Dr. Seo Woojin.

- Answer it. - Okay.

- Here. - Hey.

Hey, Eunjae. What's going on? What about Master Kim?

I don't know yet. He won't even pick up.

You still haven't found him?

Cha Eunjae!

That's why I'm doing my best!

But I can't find him anywhere.

We've been circling this area for an hour already.

Wait, over there!

Where? Is he here?

- There. - Where?

Did you find him? Did you find Master Kim?

Stay on the line. Darn it.

Master!

Gosh, Master Kim! Were you here the whole time?

Why didn't you answer your phone?

Do you know how many times I called you?

Hey, I'm on my precious vacation.

Don't you know that?

Of course I do.

I do,

but it's a gunshot wound patient.

We got an emergency call from the Coast Guard.

For now, Dr. Seo Woojin, Insu,

and Euntak went to the site.

But the patient seems to be in bad shape.

Hey, give me your phone.

- Here. - Okay.

Hey, Woojin. What's the situation?

It's an unidentified middle-aged man.

He's had three gunshot wounds.

One of them nicked the left brachial plexus,

and the other two don't have exit wounds. They're lodged inside.

We suspect a liver injury,

so we plan to open him up and stop bleeding first.

Then why not just do it?

But,

there's also a chance of an IVC injury.

How much blood loss?

He was rescued when he had already lost a lot.

We're not sure exactly--

It should be

about 800cc.

Since he was first shot,

he has lost about 800 up to 1,000cc.

Since about 10 minutes after he was shot,

he's been in a stupor.

Who's that?

It's the person who was with the patient.

The patient is very malnourished.

It's not looking good overall.

I'm not sure how much longer he can hold out in this state.
