In “Doctor X,” Son Hyun-joo and Kim Ji-won engaged in a tense standoff, leaving viewers unsure whether they were allies or enemies.
In Episode 2 of SBS’s new Friday-Saturday drama “Doctor X,” which aired on the 10th, Sun & Steel’s Park Gwang-cheol (Chairman), who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and Lee Ju-hee (played by Yuna), whose pediatric diabetes had progressed to pancreatic cancer, were admitted to the hospital.
Kye Su-jung (played by Kim Ji-won) argued regarding the case of Park Gwang-cheol (Chairman), which Do Yun-sik (played by Kim Young-min) was assigned to handle, stating, “I have an objection. If we leave the blood vessels intact, it will be an R2 resection. We should resect them along with the vessels. I don’t mind touching them, but it seems you do? I never fail.”
However, Hospital Director Bu Seung-gwon (played by Son Hyun-joo) assigned Lee Ju-hee to Kye Su-jung and Park Gwang-cheol (Chairman) to Do Yun-sik. Despite this, Kye Su-jung pointed out to Do Yun-sik, “Wouldn’t it be better to switch? With your skills, you won’t make it. Your stubbornness needs to match your competence.”
On the day of the surgery, Do Yun-sik said, “It has spread more severely than expected. The tumor is encircling the blood vessels. Even if we perform a partial resection of the cancer, the prognosis will not change. I am closing up as it is,” attempting to abandon the patient’s surgery.
Bu Seung-gwon, who was watching this, asked, “Professor Do. Are you really going to close it up like that? If I do not permit it? Are you going to tell the patient that we simply opened and closed them? Do you have no intention of saying that you did your best until the very end?”
Ultimately, he called Kye Su-jung, who was performing surgery on Lee Ju-hee. After finishing Lee Ju-hee’s surgery in one hour and moving over, he firmly stated, “We will proceed with a pancreaticoduodenectomy including the SMA.”
After the surgery ended, Bu Seung-gwon pointed out to the dejected Do Yun-sik, “Yun-sik. You started by thinking about closing up. You did not consider what else you could do; you thought about giving up from the start. You had already left the operating room at that point.”
In response, Do Yun-sik cried out, “I didn’t leave. I volunteered to be an assistant and watched this surgery through to the end. I tried to do something. Do you know how miserable that is? Facing a hopeless wall that my skills simply cannot overcome.”
He continued, shedding tears, “Even so, I did not leave the operating room until the very end. I endured it. I will endure in the future as well. That is why I will definitely secure my position at this hospital and achieve what I have dreamed of. You know my dream.”
Bu Seung-gwon coldly said, “I see,” and patted his shoulder. To Kye Su-jung, he said, “You cannot avoid failing forever.” Kye Su-jung countered Bu Seung-gwon by saying, “It seems you have already failed, Director.”
