Hospital Playlist (Wise Doctor Life / Seulkirowoon Uisasaenghwal / 슬기로운 의사생활)

I didn't see this coming at all.

All of a sudden, she said her peripheral vision was gone,

so I took her to an ophthalmologist.

The doctor told me to see a neurosurgeon.

But So-mi is okay, right?

She hasn't had her first period yet?

No. Is that a problem?

I see.

Look over here.

Do you see a mass here?

From the blood test, I see that her prolactin level is quite elevated.

It's because there's a tumor in her pituitary gland.

And the tumor is growing upward.

This part of the brain, optic chiasm, is the crossing of the optic nerves,

and as you see, the mass is pressing on this part.

So there has been a loss of her peripheral vision.

That might be the reason she still hasn't had her first period.

Does it mean

I have a brain tumor?

In my opinion, it may be a pituitary tumor.

I can officially diagnose it based on the biopsy result.

They usually turn out to be benign, so don't worry.

It's okay, So-mi. This is treatable.

It's definitely treatable. Isn't that right, doctor?

Of course.

So-mi, it won't be open brain surgery.

It's called TSA surgery.

We insert an endoscope through your nose

and scratch off the tumor.

If you take medication after the surgery,

you can recover from this without a problem.

-Don't worry. -Doctor.

When can she get the surgery?

There's no bleeding in her brain, so it's not urgent.

But we shouldn't delay it.

Let's get her admitted and proceed.

I'll get her admitted today

and proceed with a blood test, ECG, and a chest X-ray

to see if she can get the surgery.

As for the surgery, I'll perform it when our ENT doctor is available

and discuss when it will be.

I'll try to book it as soon as possible.

Thank you.

But she must have been experiencing headaches and there must've been

a gradual loss of her peripheral vision. Why didn't you come sooner?

Her tumor progressed quite a bit.

She just told me about it.

I just found out about it. My gosh, I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry?

Excuse me.

Yes, what is it? I'm with an outpatient.

Jun-wan just went in.

I don't think he can make it.

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Aren't you cold?

Why didn't you just wait in your office?

Go and get some sleep.

You need to see your patients tomorrow.

I can't sleep.

I thought about going home, but I just can't.

Song-hwa.

I don't know how I'm feeling.

What do you mean?

I don't know if I'm sad

or relieved.

I don't know

how I'm supposed to feel.

They are my feelings,

but I can't put a finger on it.

And I don't know

what kind of a face I should put on.

Then, just don't do anything.

Guys, go home. I'm all right.

Jeez.

Will you stay here all night?

Jun-wan will be here.

Yes. I have to be up all night anyway to check in on the other patients.

You should go home.

I'll call you if something happens.

Listen to him.

I swear.

I don't believe in superstitions.

But I have a bad feeling about it. I don't think I should leave.

Perhaps, I should wear a black suit all the time.

Goodness. There are so many funerals to attend these days.

Chairman Yang had a bad heart, to begin with, right?

Jeong-won told me he had angina.

And he had gotten the surgery for it.

But he said it wasn't serious.

Gosh, I can't believe he died so suddenly.

If this was going to be it,

he should have been nice to his wife and children.

What's going to happen to his company, then?

Isn't he the majority shareholder of Taegeon Apparel?

I doubt Professor Yang's mom can run the company.

-Will Professor Yang run the company? -How can he do that?

Jong-su.

I guess we don't live in an unfair world.

-What do you mean? -I'm talking about his mistress.

She's left with nothing now.

I'm sure she wanted to take over the company.

Thank you for coming.

Did you eat?

Can you give them more side dishes and drinks, please?

We're okay. We ate a lot.

Did you get some sleep? What about your friends?

I took a short nap.

They all have surgery in the evening,

so they came this afternoon.

-Sir, do you want some beer? -No.

What about your mother?

She went home just now.

I told her to sleep at home tonight and come back tomorrow morning.

Most of his employees came in the afternoon.

Only my guests are night owls.

Here come your night owls.

Jong-su, his friends are here. We should go.

Okay. Let's go.

Bye. Hello, guys.

-Mom. -Take care.

-Okay. Thanks for coming. Bye. -Bye.

Your underwear and razor.

The underwear is new, and I brought the razor from your office.

Thank you. I thought about asking my mom to bring me some.

And this is a pain relief patch. Put it on when you go to sleep.

When my dad passed away,

my knees hurt the most

because I had to bow a lot of times.

-You didn't eat dinner yet, right? -I'm hungry.

-My gosh, I'm hungry. -Give me one.

She came to the funeral? Really?

My gosh, she is one gutsy woman.

Luckily, my mom wasn't here, so there wasn't a scene.

Did you curse and kick her out?

Don't you know Seok-hyeong? I'm sure he sent her away quietly.

No, she paid her respect.

I told her to do that.

Are you insane?

The real Buddha was here.

Did she say anything else?

She told me that she was six months pregnant.

Who wants to know that?

She said that the child may be fatherless but will have a good older brother.

She kept going on about this and that.

I just listened to her.

She's on another level.

Well, that's how she could be his mistress.

-Then, that lady... -Lady? Are you mad?

-Then, she can't get anything, right? -You bet.

When her baby is born,

the baby will have the right to a part of the inheritance.

Will you let that happen?

It might be hard to prove paternity since your father passed away.

Don't let them have a cent. Not a cent.

That's not up to me.

Besides, it's not the baby's fault.

-Hey! -Hey!

YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Yes.

Okay. I got it.

Hello. We're here to get admitted.

I see. This way.

-What's your name? -It's Park Byeong-su.

I see. I need to ask you a few questions.

Do you have any underlying conditions?

-I have diabetes. -When were you diagnosed?

-Was it ten years ago? -Yes.

It was a long time ago.

I see. Have you had any surgery in the past?

-No, this is my first one. -I see.

-I'll get your height and weight. -Okay.

The patient from Room One is about to get surgery. Is the patient ready?

Hold on.

-Let me add antibiotics. -Okay.

Lee Jang-u is back from his surgery.

Hold on.

Yes. Okay. I'll get it ready.

-Ma'am. -Yes?

The patient in Room Eight came back from surgery.

And a patient will be moved from the ER to Room Three.

But I'm not done going over the steps with him.

-Head to Room Eight, please. -Okay.

Get his medical history first.

I'll check the patient in Room Eight, Lee Jang-u's vital signs

-and see if a bed is ready in Room Three. -Thank you.

-This way. -Take a seat.

Ma'am, we need to get Lee Jae-guk's consent for ERCP.

How should I explain it?

After his cholecystectomy, he has a high total bilirubin level.

From the MRCP exam, we found a CBD stone, so he's getting ERCP.

Okay.

So-mi, I have portrait rights.

Why don't you get my permission first?

You totally got it wrong. I wasn't filming you.

You're going to be moved to a regular room now.

Are you feeling okay?

Taking deep breaths will help you recover.

Make sure to go to your physical therapy sessions.

And I'll see you in three months.

-Okay. Thank you. -Okay.
