"The swelling in the occipital lobe is too severe." "Professor." "Professor." "Professor." "Please calm down." "We need to quickly do an EVD." "Administer anesthesia to the patient." "Okay." "There's bleeding in the cerebral veins." "Let me look." "The swelling in the occipital lobe has subsided." "Professor Lee," "The ICV and the Vein of Galen are too close together." "You can't use a bipolar coagulator here." "Keep that in mind." "Okay." "Professor, am I now the primary surgeon on this operation?" "Isn't that why you came running here?" "No." "I ran here because of an emergency." "Please clarify the situation." "Did you call me here for the EVD?" "Now that the EVD has been done and the swelling has subsided," "I'll just hand the operation back to the Professor and leave." "Fine." "You're the primary surgeon." "It's all up to you." "It's up to you!" "Professor, are you alright?" "Work hard." "Professor, are you alright?" "Bipolar." "=Electrosurgical instrument used for intraoperative coagulation control=" "Bipolar." "Prof. Gim Sang Cheol said, the Internal Cerebral Vein and the Vein of Galen are too close to use Bipolar Coagulation." "Yun Ji Hye, who's the surgeon for this operation?" "I asked you, who's the surgeon here?" "You are." "Isn't that the ICV?" "You only have me here, not Prof. Gim Sang Cheol." "It appears to be the ICV." "Below the white matter of the Corpus Callosum is the Great Cerebral Vein of Galen." "Isn't the ICV alongside the Great Vein of Galen?" "Dong Seung Man." "Yes, Professor?" "Switch positions with Yun Ji Hye." "If you don't want to switch, you can both leave, and call Dr. Yang Beom Jun." "Assisting, call Dr. Yang Beom Jun." "I'll do it, Professor." "Nuna, I have to go scrub." "Yun Ji Hye, if you're in a bad mood, get out." "Right." "I'll get out." "Bipolar power at 50." "Let's try reducing it to 30." "Professor, are you alright?" "Professor?" "Is the operation going smoothly?" "Okay." "Dr. Yun, were you asked to leave too?" "Nurse." "Okay." "If Dr. Jo Dae Sik is free, ask him to come over to video the operation." "The surgical microscope is already recording it." "I know." "I want another copy for lecturing purposes." "Ah, yes." "Ha Yeong, it's early in the morning." "Why..." "Now?" "Yes.." "Okay." "Aigoo." "Ha Yeong, you're really..." "What?" "What is it?" "The occipital lobe is swelling again." "Didn't we do EVD?" "After the cerebrospinal fluid finishes draining, it will return to normal." "Professor, where do you want this placed?" "Why are you here?" "Dr. Jo has rounds." "I'll place it here." "Yang Beom Jun." "Okay." "Don't just record the OR." "Take good shots of the microscopic view, so that we can get a close look at surgical procedures." "Okay." "This is as far as the brain retractor can go." "The space is too narrow." "Use the EVD to draw out 20cc." "The edema is worse." "Professor, it's best to stop the surgery now." "If we continue, we won't be able, to reattach the patient's skull." "KUSA -=Kamalaarak Ultrasonic Surgical Aspirator (KUSA) is used for the removal of unwanted soft and hard tissues during surgery.=" "The patient's pulse is beating too fast." "If this continues, he'll go into shock." "Professor, you can't continue." "Dr. Lee Gang Hun!" "Let's stop this operation." "We'll first wait for the edema to subside and then re-attempt surgery." "Dong Seung Man," "Take extra care with the opening in the cranium and remember to protect the dura." "Store the bone flap in the tissue bank." "We'll need it after the second operation." "Okay." "Turn off the video camera." "Turn off the video camera!" "Okay." "If the edema gets too severe, you can increase the dosage of steroid to stabilize it." "Okay." "Then tell his family that he may be operated on again in a few days..." "I'll tell them myself." "Okay." "I heard that Song Min U's operation was aborted." "What about it?" "Prof Gim Sang Cheol wanted me to find out the details." "Why was the operation stopped midway?" "Why?" "What?" "Didn't you know?" "The primary surgeon is no longer Prof. Gim Sang Cheol, it's me." "Where it concerns my patients, is there a reason to report to Prof. Gim?" "Of course there's a reason." "The patient chose Prof. Gim Sang Cheol from the start." "And furthermore, entrusted Prof. Gim with the operation." "If you were in his situation, wouldn't you want to know?" "No, I would not want to know." "Okay, I see." "I'll look at the CT scan myself and give the results to Prof. Gim." "Forget it." "I'll tell him." "In 20 minutes, I'll brief Song Min U's family after speaking to Prof Gim." "Okay." "Prof. Gim Sang Cheol went out." "It's a meningioma." "Do you know the frontal and occipital lobes?" "It puts pressure on this area." "The tumor effects the optic nerve." "There's the possibility that the vision in the left eye could deteriorate." "Other symptoms include headaches and mood swings." "We need to do a second surgery, but don't worry." "When we operate near the eyes," "Occasionally cerebral edema can occur." "When there is severe edema, continuing on with the operation would be very risky." "It's safer to wait until the edema subsides and then resume the surgery." "That's why we halted the surgery." "Please believe me, there's no need to be alarmed." "...I've finally found his weakness." "That's right." "Prof. Gim Sang Cheol is really stubborn." "He's become more moody and old-fashioned." "Am I like that?" "Not a bit." "The Chief however, is always reasonable and up-to-date." "Prof. Lee." "You have the ability to make people around you happy." "You're like a happy virus!" "Is Dr Seo Jun Seok still on leave?" "Yes." "As far as I know, up till today." "Prof. Lee has been working very hard." "Why is Prof. Seo taking leave right now?" "So Chief Go is completely forsaking us?" "We can't do anything." "The March election for hospital director is around the corner." "There's a need to take preemptive actions to secure our positions." "Chief Go has noticed that as well." "And tries to get close to Director." "Professor Seo, did you enjoy your leave?" "Yes." "But I regret that I had to leave so suddenly." "I was a bit surprised, by your sudden leave." "Aigoo." "Your hand is..." "Because that patient's operation will take longer than the next patient..." "Ahhh!" "Dr. Seo!" "Did you enjoy your leave?" "I don't have a lot of cases, right?" "Not a lot." "I always have so many surgeries." "I heard that you're planning to do almost 150 surgeries for the first half of the year." "Is that so?" "I don't know if I can reach it." "But, I'll try for it because gaining more surgical experience is my life's work." "Laceration?" "It's not serious." "Are you temporarily unable to perform surgery?" "That's too bad." "I'd feel terrible if a day passed without performing a surgery." "Are you OK?" "Surgery isn't everything." "Those words sound very familiar." "It's what Prof. Gim Sang Cheol often says." "Is that so?" "Work hard, Dr. Seo." "For a surgeon, surgery is life." "A day without a surgery..." "Dr. Seo!" "Was the break good?" "Yes." "Did you injure yourself?" "Oh...it's nothing." "Why weren't you more careful?" "Okay... the upper extremity arteries are..." "You have a pretty smile." "I've learned my lesson." "Do you want to leave when you see me?" "Or when Dr. Yang Beom Jun comes, do you have to leave?" "Dr Yang will be here in one minute." "And I'm on my lunch break now." "Thirty seconds remaining until Dr. Yang comes." "Let's have lunch, ok?" "Ha Yeong?" "Um..." "No, sorry." "It looks good this way." "It looks as if, for the moment... you can't perform surgery." "Dae Sik?" "I have a patient of Prof. Lu Jeong Sang," "The paralysis in the left half of the body seems to have gotten worse." "Professor Lu went to an academic conference." "Can you come take a look?" "All right, I'll go now." "Professor Lee." "Hasn't your shift ended?" "I was worried about the patient's condition." "The patient had a mixture of blood and cerebrospinal fluid during EVD." "That's bad." "Redo the CT." "Do ABGA." "Yes." "No, let Dong Seung Man do it." "Professor." "Professor." "Let me take a look." "The patients left hemiplegia dropped from level 4 to level 3." "=Hemiplegia:" "Total paralysis of the arm, leg, and trunk on the same side of the body.=" "Start with injections of glycerol and if there's any improvement, do a CT scan." "Afterwards, call Professor Lu Jeong Sang and report the situation." "Yes, Prof. Seo." "Are you feeling sick?" "No, I'm just out of breath from running over here." "Good work." "Yes." "Prof. Seo?" "Yes?" "Are you all right?" "What?" "Is there a problem?" "What problem?" "Did you have that treated at our hospital?" "I handled it myself." "It's not serious." "Prof. Seo." "What?" "Nothing." "Dr. Yun what are the numbers for the CD31 data we measured in the last experiment?" "Wait a moment Prof Gim, let me take a look." "The experiment at 400 times amplification had an average of 52 compared to 45." "The statistical results don't show a favorable difference." "Why wasn't it reported at that time?" "I reported it to you, and you still let me redo it." "When?" "When did you report it to me?" "I didn't expect you to be this type of person." "To do as you wish and believe you won't be discovered?" "Do you really believe that you won't be discovered if you just don't tell me?" "Yes, it will be discovered, what you have hidden behind the mask of goodness." "The ugly essence inside..." "I will surely expose it." "Prof. Gim?" "You should leave first." "This, I was supposed to..." "Dr. Yun." "Get out now!" "Okay." "I'll leave now." "The event of 20 years ago," "Although Professor, you did not bear any responsibility for it at that time," "I will surely expose the truth." "I will certainly see this to the end." "This is my unwavering aim." "But now the situation has come to this." "I can't just collapse." "As long as you don't investigate, nothing is wrong." "Please help me." "Professor you must help me." "Please help me this once!" "Here you go!" "I don't like to drink it hot." "You have a bit of a cold." "Drinking something warm will help you feel better." "Blow on it like this!" "It doesn't taste that good?" "This little devil!" "Ruby, here." "Blow on the drink." "Too hot!" "Yes?" "Miss Yu Jin, are you all right?" "Wow, is this Gang Hun?" "It looks like I should have told you earlier that I had a daughter, and let you call me." "I always told the others about my daughter." "You're the only one I didn't tell." "Because..." "Ruby!" "What's wrong?" "Ruby!" "Ruby!" "Ruby...!" " What happened?" "Miss Yu Jin?" " Ruby!" "Gang Hun!" "What should I do?" "!" "Ruby!" "Ruby!" "Ruby!" " Please stay calm." " Ruby!" "The doctor will be right here." "MRI." "It's currently in use." "A CT scan has already been done." "It appears that the left half of the body is temporarily paralyzed." "Why is she like this?" "Miss Yu Jin." "Did your child eat something hot or blow on anything?" "Soup..." "Soup..." "It could be because of that..." "What should I do?" "Please calm down." "Please calm down." "Nothing is wrong." "It could be Moyamoya disease." "Get ready to do angiography after the MRI." "Okay." "Miss Yu Jin, we suspect that your child has Moyamoya disease." "She has to be admitted to the hospital immediately for a thorough examination." "We'll decide if we need to proceed with surgery based on the test results." "Surgery?" "Surgery..." "My Ruby..." "Miss Yu Jin, keep your spirits up!" "Miss Yu Jin?" "The surgery will go smoothly." "Take it in stride." "Miss Yu Jin." "These are mine." "Change into them." "Your feet will get sore." "In Moyamoya disease there's an inadequate flow of blood in the brain because of the constriction of certain arteries." "That's why Ruby suddenly developed paralysis." "She'll recover after the operation, because we will be able to construct new pathways that will enhance blood flow." "Is Ruby your niece?" "I'll get something hot for you to drink." "She's my daughter." "My daughter..." "She was born to an outrageous mother." "She's never even called me "mom."" "She's my daughter." "Because it's an abnormal basal cerebral vascular network disease, the PCO2 has to be maintained at around 40 during operation." "Take note not to let her blood pressure drop." "EDAS is an indirect arterial anastomosis procedure." "Scalpel." "Professor, Grandmother Lee Yeo Sun in the ward..." "Tell me later." "Professor seems to have changed a lot." "Yes, right." "An inauguration ceremony?" "Okay." "The cranial nerves center, is not only the public image of our neurosurgery department, but also that of our hospital." "It's our prestige." "I would like an appropriate ceremony for my inauguration as the head of the center." "It will boost the reputation of our neurosurgery department." "Why?" "Oh, nothing." "Only..." "You usually don't like any kind of formality." "So your request came as a surprise." "I don't like to be caught up in that type of thing." "But I really cannot stand watching from the sidelines." "If I continue to be hands-off, they may think that I'm easily bullied." "Why do you look so shocked?" "Director, you should know all of this very well." "Look at you." "Look at me." "Look at those people." "Isn't this world made up of people busy working for their own glory?" "Normally when she eats something hot or blows on an instrument or a balloon..." "Did she show any signs of paralysis?" "I'm not really sure if she showed any signs of paralysis before." "There were only situations where, she would shout and scream." "I always thought... that she's acting like me, someone who gets easily agitated." "I didn't know she was actually sick." "Don't blame yourself." "Many parents have had the same misconception as you." "Let's observe her condition for today." "If there aren't any big problems, then tomorrow she can be moved to the ward." "She resembles you a lot." "I'll be going." "Anything unusual?" "No, everything's fine." "Ruby's surgery was successful, right?" "Okay." "That's a relief." "Yun Ji Hye." "Are you still angry?" "What, angry?" "I have nothing to be angry about." "Yun Ji Hye." "I'm really not angry..." "Have you treated patient Pak Sun Ae's wound?" "After 3 days, the wound should not be covered." "If you do something, do it well." "Our Prof. Lee's performance this month has been exceptional." "Wow!" "You even did cranial base surgery." "If you continue to perform like this... people will only look for Prof. Lee Gang Hun," "in Chunha University Hospital's neurosurgery department." "You flatter me." "Our neurosurgery department's model doctor is Prof. Go Jae Hak." "You're obviously very capable and yet so modest... just like me." "Hold on a second." "Yes?" "Professor." "Professor." "The patient's pupils are dilated." "How about his response to pain stimuli?" "His pain stimulus response isn't normal." " CT scan." " Yes." "This... what's happening?" "What's wrong with our Min U?" "Is our Min U brain dead?" "He's not brain dead." "He's in complete coma and shows no responses to stimuli." "Didn't you say the operation was a success?" "Didn't you say he would be fine?" "A normal child." "How did he end up like this?" "Sir." "The operation was going well." "However we had to stop and allow the cerebral edema to subside." "We've planned for a second operation." "After another operation, he should be all right." "After a thorough investigation, an answer will emerge as to, whether there were errors during the operation ." "I want to see your Director." "I'm not sure what to say." "We are really very sorry." "I need neither your apology nor your compensation." "We are requesting a police investigation." "Depending on the outcome of the investigation, we may take you to court." "He needs another operation." "The operation had to be suspended, because the cerebral edema became too severe." "Due to these circumstances, it's essential for him to have a second surgery." "After the second operation, the patient will be able..." "After you did this to my child, how dare you still suggest, that he go through another operation?" "Let me explain it once again." "Patient Song Min U, is in a coma only because of the cerebral edema." "After I operate on him again, the problem will be resolved and he will regain consciousness." "Please be quiet Dr Lee." "We are really very sorry." "Our doctors always give their best on behalf of the patients at all times." "However, complications do happen despite their best efforts." "But, we will focus all our resources to ensure your son regains consciousness." "We are really very sorry." "Where is Prof. Gim Sang Cheol?" "I'll call him." "What?" "Okay, I see." "It's really strange." "He seemed okay during the operation yesterday." "Why would he suddenly go into a complete coma ?" "There weren't any problems with the operation after I left, right?" "Yes, and nothing special was mentioned in the medical report." "Bipolar power at 50." "Nuna, I'm going to the ward." "Okay." "I consent to a police investigation." "I'm confident that the investigation will reveal no negligence on my part." "Perhaps you have video recording of the surgery?" "Yes." "I'll go and confirm it." "Who else was present during the surgery?" "Dr. Dong Seung Man." "Why doesn't he answer the phone?" "Dr. Jo." "Yes, Professor." "I'll check it out." "The ICV and the Vein of Galen are too close together." "You can't use a bipolar coagulator here." "Please keep that in mind." "Bipolar." "Isn't that the ICV?" "=Internal Cerebral Vein=" "You only have me here, not Prof. Gim Sang Cheol." "What?" "Min U's father." "Min U's father." "Please let me perform the second surgery." "If the second surgery is done, Min U will regain consciousness." "Is that so?" "We can't allow it." "We have absolutely no confidence in this hospital." "Min U's father!" "Min U's father." "Please..." "Please...calm down." "Anyway," "If the police investigation reveals negligence," "I will alert the press and media." "Please be prepared for that." "That... that..." "Please wait." "No.You can't do it." "Please, please don't publicize this." "Please don't do it." "I don't want to take that step, but my child is already in this state and as his parents, this is what we can do for him." "What do you plan to do Dr Lee?" "!" "How are you going to solve this mess?" "How?" "I even heard there's no video recording." "There's no record of the surgery procedure, because on that day, of all days, the hard disk in the microscope stopped recording." "Did you erase it?" " I would never do such a thing." " Lee Gang Hun!" "I should not have brought you back." "I should not have believed in you." "Please calm down." "How can I calm down now?" "No matter how difficult my situation, I should not have joined forces with you." "I should not have joined forces with you." "You have to bear this responsibility." "You have to bear the entire responsibility yourself." "Chief Go." "You just spoke what came to your mind." "If my judgement is proved correct, will you be able to accept that?" "It will be very awkward for you." "What?" "What?" "What do you mean that the hard disk was full so there's no recording?" "I'm not sure." "The hard disk in the microscope was already full that day, but we forgot to check it." "Dong Seung Man," "Why did you take it upon yourself to do this?" "You thought I would be grateful to you for this?" "No, it's not that." "It was because that day, you didn't follow Prof. Gim Sang Cheol instructions on how to proceed with the operation." "What?" "Don't tell me you also believe that Prof. Gim Sang Cheol's decision is right?" "No..." "I don't mean that." "I'm afraid that sunbae..." "I'm afraid that Professor, you'll get into trouble." "Dong Seung Man." "You're creating trouble for me." "You think you know everything, you brat." "I firmly believe that I did not make an error." "Who do you think you are?" "Taking matters in your own hands without first asking me." "I'm really sorry." "Huh?" "Where did the memory card go?" "Ah..neurology could have borrowed it." "Yes, I'm Yang Beom Jun from Neurosurgery." "May I ask.. did you borrow our camcorder?" "The number you dialed is currently unavailable." "My Hye Ri!" "Give my Hye Ri back to me!" "Seo Jun Seok." "Hang on." "Get over it." "What are you doing?" "What are you doing here?" "Since you can't perform surgery." "Professor." "You are all alone here." "Why didn't you attend the meeting?" "You must explain the facts." "Patient Song Min U's condition was not caused by either your negligence or mine." "We must prove that it's a normal complication." "Professor." "I'm sorry." "I was wrong." "I was wrong." "Please forgive me." "I'm sorry." "I was wrong!" "I was wrong!" "I was wrong." "What's wrong with you?" "Professor." "I was wrong." "What's wrong with you?"
