The subsequent day.

Dowook was taking place to the primary flooring for emergency name obligation when he took out his telephone. There was a message from his mom.

[Son. What do you plan to do for the New Year’s?]

‘New 12 months’s?’

Trying on the date on the prime of the mobile phone, the vacation was simply across the nook.

Though Dowook all the time tried to take day without work to go see his mother and father in the course of the New 12 months’s, he actually didn’t have the time this yr.

Surgical procedure, outpatient, coaching.

The duties elevated as his first yr as a specialist started in earnest.

Contemplating what he needed to do on the hospital, he thought it could be solely on New 12 months’s Day that he would have time at greatest.

[I have about a day.]

Dowook noticed a well-recognized head as he was heading in the direction of the emergency room after sending a reply.

“Chang Soo, did you may have dinner?”

“Huh?”

Since Seong Chang Soo, who circled, had a scorching hoppang in his hand, Dowook pointed at it. [T/N: hoppang is a steamed bun with a sweet filling. Usually the filling is red bean paste.]

“Is that full of pink beans?”

“Uh-uh. There was just one left. Do not even give it some thought.”

“I do not like these with pink beans. It isn’t a odor I like.”

“Phew, poor man who would not even know something about style. That is wonderful.”

“When you really feel sorry for me, give me a bit. Hoppang has a reasonably good texture.”

Seong Chang Soo, who took a chew whereas hiding the hoppang from Dowook, confirmed his refusal by his actions.

“Oh, it is scorching.”

“I am not going to eat it. Eat slowly.”

Dowook shook his head and shortly took his ringing mobile phone out of his pocket. He thought it was his mom, but it surely wasn’t.

“It is Professor Choi. Shh.”

Seong Chang Soo closed his mouth instantly after fanning his tongue.

“Sure, professor.”

-The place are you proper now?

“I got here right down to go to the emergency room.”

-1st flooring? The place precisely?

“In entrance of the hallway to the middle.”

-I’m close by. Wait a minute.

As quickly as he hung up, Seong Chang Soo requested.

“What did he say?”

“He informed me to attend.”

“Now? Did you make any errors in the course of the surgical procedure?”

“If I had made an accident within the working room, would I be standing right here intact? I’d be crushed on the spot.

“Oh.”

“And Professor Choi. He is a really thoughtful particular person exterior. Do not misunderstand him.”

“Final Choi’s consideration? I feel it is extra like horror.”

Seong Chang Soo bit a chunk of hoppang with a horrified expression. And he smiled as if he had by no means executed that.

“That is actually a specialty. When you do not go when it’s steamed, it will likely be all bought out.”

A shadow approached behind the blissful Seong Chang Soo.

“Dr. Park.”

A chilly name. Seong Chang Soo instinctively flinched and walked to Dowook’s aspect. When he circled, Final Choi was standing there in his informal garments.

“I’ve an appointment, so it is arduous to cope with it.”

Choi Hoo held out a tough paper bag to Dowook. Dowook acquired it and requested.

“Have been you going someplace?”

“Yeah. I will be again earlier than tomorrow’s surgical procedure schedule. Chief Ha will probably be answerable for the morning spherical, so you do not have to concentrate.”

“Okay.”

Seong Chang Soo stabbed Dowook in his aspect as he noticed Choi Hoo disappearing towards the foyer.

“What is that this extremely regular dialog?”

“He is all the time like this. You have develop into a specialist, and it is time to be assured in entrance of Prof. Choi.”

“Is trauma simple to beat? I nonetheless keep in mind being smashed for doing one thing improper with the affected person’s notification in my first yr.”

Dowook opened the bag handed to him by Choi Hoo and raised his head.  His eyes remained on the hoppang held by Seong Chang Soo.

“Is that actually a specialty?”

“I can not give it to you. Shoo shoo.”

“Who desires it? How soiled.”

“There is a large dumpling snack bar on the third flooring. There’s a seasonal merchandise that they solely promote within the winter. Bulgogi disappears in a minute as quickly because it’s displayed.”

Dowook took the new hoppang out of the bag. It was a steamed bun with a aromatic soy sauce meat scent that was primarily totally different from pink beans.

“Like this?”

Seong Chang Soo’s eyes obtained larger. Dowook took a chew and nodded.

“It is a specialty. It smells good.”

“No method. Is every part within the bag steamed buns?”

“I suppose so. What does the inexperienced style like?”

“The legendary vegetable hoppang?”

“Legendary?”

“I’ve solely heard rumors. Myeongdeok mentioned that the ratio of chives to pork is loopy.”

“Oh. This may be good for dinner.”

Dowook appeared round and moved to an empty desk in entrance of the comfort retailer. Seong Chang Soo adopted with shining eyes.

“I would like one, too!”

Dowook jerked the bag apart.

“If you would like a chew, purchase me a drink first.”

Seong Chang Soo, who rushed right into a comfort retailer, got here out with two sodas.

“Right here you go”.

“Dessert, too.”

“You bought it totally free, too.”

“When you do not prefer it, simply depart.”

It was not till he ran to the espresso store throughout the road {that a} vegetable hoppang landed in Seong Chang Soo’s hand.

Seong Chang Soo appeared thrilled.

“You will be blessed, Professor Choi.”

“Hey. Trauma?”

“Beginning right this moment, it’s no extra!”

10 minutes handed as they shared the present from Prof. Choi.

After a sip of espresso Dowook appeared up on the ceiling. To be precise, he appeared within the path of Room 2007.

-My coronary heart beats as I hold listening to your voice. What sort of symptom is that this?

He was positive that she had requested as a result of she actually did not know Lim So Yool had all the time been sincere with him.

Why did such a sensible mathematician ask one thing like that?

The scenario on the time was too sudden to ask.

He needed to go test her well being and assist with work tomorrow night, however he couldn’t appear to maneuver simply.

“What are you enthusiastic about?” Are you upset as a result of I ate three?”

Dowook’s consideration turned to Seong Chang Soo at his query. Since they’d recognized one another for greater than a decade since faculty, they knew one another very effectively and helped one another each time they’d difficulties.

“Chang Soo.”

Dowook quietly informed him his worries.

“If, you already know, some woman tells you her coronary heart beats when she sees you. What would you do?”

“Huh? Who likes you?”

Since he hit the nail proper on the pinnacle, Dowook hid his embarrassment and made excuses.

“If. I mentioned if.”

“Who’s it? Present me an image.”

Seong Chang Soo, who already accepted it as a fait accompli and reached out his hand first, was relentless. Dowook shook his head.

“By no means thoughts. I am a idiot for asking this query to a single one that has by no means dated earlier than.”

“The speculation of a single one that has by no means dated is extra correct. There’s nothing to fret about. When you’re charming, you can begin courting. If not, simply thoughts your personal enterprise.”

“It is as a result of there are numerous issues concerned.”

“Drawback? You averted me since you felt pressured when Ina adopted you round due to her crush.”

Ina was Seong Chang Soo’s youthful sister, Seong Ina.

“That was a very long time in the past. Why carry it up?”

“She’s a stewardess now. It is also a category A airline. She’s been acknowledged for being charming. When you argue like that, you may completely stay alone your complete life.”

“I am not asking you to nitpick. Your sister is rather like you, so I did not like her that method. And also you all the time gossip about your youthful sister’s character. Why are you all of a sudden complimenting her?”

“She requested me this and that and requested if she may come over this New 12 months. She even supplied a bribe.”

“Do not do issues like that.”

“Don’t fret. I’ve already scolded her. Dowook is busy due to his flower-like…….”

Seong Chang Soo paused.

“PARK DOWOOK. The lady who mentioned you made her coronary heart race… By any probability?”

“No.”

“This man. This man. You confessed your emotions and obtained rejected?”

“Do not flip your ideas round. It isn’t like that.”

Dowook stopped transferring whereas making an attempt to appropriate Seong Chang Soo’s misunderstanding. However a name interrupted the dialog.

Among the many two individuals who confirmed the decision on the similar time, Seong Chang Soo raised his head.

“I received. It is an order from Commander Ji. There are two sufferers coming in from the collision.”

“Go forward. I will observe you proper after I clear this up. I’ll be on shift quickly.”

“Alternating? You are on emergency obligation once more? What number of playing cards did you max out? You shouldn’t use greater than your wage like me. It isn’t a troublesome factor.”

“Do not make me giggle and go.”

When Dowook entered the emergency room, it was after the affected person within the collision had already arrived on the extreme therapy room.

Chief Ji was answerable for one aspect and Seong Chang Soo was answerable for emergency therapy on the opposite. The situation appeared to be extra extreme for Chief Ji’s affected person. It appeared like they weren’t capable of finding the place the bleeding was since there have been a number of blood packs round them.

‘Hope you survive.’

Dowook handed by the therapy room and located Lee Sang-moon, a day shift employee. He was listening to the extreme therapy room.

“Dr. Lee.”

“Oh, you are right here, Dr. Park.”

“Is there any particular affected person you need to hand over right this moment?”

“There is no pressing affected person. One affected person who’s on a line in therapy room 7 will probably be discharged from the hospital on his personal afterwards. He comes right here typically. The affected person in No.3. is sleeping off the alcohol.….”

Lee Sang-moon couldn’t cease listening to the extreme therapy room whilst he was ending his shift. It was not simple to concentrate on different issues when a affected person was subsequent to you on the verge of life and dying.

Nonetheless, there have been already sufficient emergency response personnel in that extreme therapy room. As well as, Chief Ji’s response was as fast and efficient as ever.

“There’s no want for critical harm management. If the affected person’s vitals stabilize quickly, they only want arterial embolization, so it will likely be just a little useful when you transfer to the CT room and put together upfront.”

Lee Sang-moon’s head turned at Dowook’s rationalization.

“They used up 4 blood packs, but it surely’s simple to repair?”

“They’ve already discovered the place the bleeding is.”

Beep beep.

When Chief Ji pulled out, an indication of important normalization appeared on the monitor. Peace descended shortly within the therapy room, which appeared pressing.

-What are you doing? Why are you not going to arrange for angiography!

Chief Ji’s shout rang out.

As Dowook mentioned, Lee Sang-moon’s eyes widened as emergency therapy flowed.

“Thanks, Dr. Lee.”

“H-have a very good day.”

Lee Sang-moon was shocked and will solely take a look at Dowook passing by casually.

It was ridiculous {that a} first yr neurosurgeon, who acquired his specialist license this yr, was extra educated in emergencies than he was, an emergency surgical procedure chief resident.

“Now that I witnessed the rumor in particular person, it’s actually one thing else.”

The primary door of the Extreme Therapy Room opened. Chief Ji noticed Lee Sang-moon and shouted.

“Sang moon! Run to the video studio and arrange the essential embolization!”

“Sure, chief!”

Upon arriving on the normal space, Dowook entered his title in entrance of the working pc, after which moved in entrance of the reception desk, the place many ready sufferers had been situated.

The nurses on obligation right this moment noticed Dowook and bowed their heads briefly.

Dowook requested considered one of them.

“What number of sufferers are ready?”

“There are presently 23 folks.”

There have been lots from the beginning.

“Dr. Dowook, are you working right this moment?”

Hong Chul-soon, a third-year resident, greeted Dowook from the place he was sitting in entrance of his working pc.

Behind him was a health care provider Dowook hadn’t seen earlier than, and how younger they had been, it was possible a brand new sprout beginning this yr’s residency course.

Hong Chul-soon hit the sprout’s shoulder.

“Jinsu. Say hello. That is the well-known Dr. Park Dowook. Physician, that is Yeom Jinsoo, considered one of our new residents.”

“Good day, senior! I stay up for working with you!”

12 months since she began as an intern. The voice of a potential resident had the vitality of a brand new sprout.

However that was additionally a spirit that may die down by the depth of the hell-like residency that was incomparable to when she was an intern.

Dowook inspired her quietly to carry on as he mentioned.

“You do not have to be so energetic in your greeting. I’m from a distinct division. Be happy to name me doc.”

“Oh…”

“There are 23 sufferers ready. We could begin now?”

“Sure. Senior… ah, doc.”

The primary affected person was a person grabbing his nostril.

“Sir, are you able to let go of your nostril?”

“It hurts a lot…”

The higher a part of the affected person’s nostril was barely touched with a hand sporting sterile gloves. There was edema below the pores and skin.

“How did this occur?”

“I measured the improper heading angle. Ugh, it hurts.”

“It is not that dangerous. Nurse. Headlamp.”

Dowook put a lamp on his head and lifted an inhaler and a cotton swab.

“Do not glare on the mild and shut your eyes. Your eyesight will undergo.”

The blood clots within the nostril had been eliminated with a cotton swab, the ointment containing native anesthesia was utilized to the torn mucous membrane, and a gauze was hooked up to stop the affected person from touching the swollen higher nostril.

“It is executed.”

“Already? Do not you are taking X-rays? I feel my nostril is damaged.”

“Your bones are advantageous. When you really feel itchy or sore after returning residence, placed on a chilly pack or one thing. Till the swelling goes down.”

The wait was lengthy, however when the therapy led to two minutes, the affected person appeared puzzled.

Dowook winked on the nurse to elucidate it effectively after which moved to the following therapy room.

After coping with bronchitis sufferers, extreme hiccups, and finger dislocation sufferers, he got here out and appeared on the clock.

It was 7:10.

A mean of two.5 minutes per particular person. Dowook thought he ought to work more durable as a result of his tempo appeared to have fallen in comparison with earlier than.

‘What? I wasn’t utilizing the chief’s sense.’

Chief Ji’s sense additionally started to meld into his each day life, so trial and error occurred for some time. It was necessary to simply accept and replicate fastidiously as a way to utterly meld with the sense.

Dowook barely reached towards the video room the place Chief Ji, who was within the midst of embolization, was situated.

Tingle.

Simply by wanting on the affected person’s eyes, he may really feel Commander Ji’s sense extending utterly all through his neural circuit.

As he approached the therapy room the place the following affected person was, he may see the muscle spasms had been brought on by muscle cramps. That was the place the important thing accidents had been. It was muscle stiffness attributable to hyponatremia.

“Nurse, please put together a prescription for fluids right here.”

In just a little bit.

Dowook got here out of the overall therapy room after the thirteenth therapy.

“What number of sufferers are ready?”

“Now there are solely people who find themselves registering.”

Dowook appeared on the clock and thought he may take a breather on the nurse’s reply.

It was 7:25pm.

It was about 1.5 minutes per affected person.

“There is a distinction like this.”

Though the therapy time varies from individual to individual as a result of they’d delicate signs, he thought that Chief Ji’s senses nonetheless had a protracted solution to go earlier than he may utterly combine it as his personal.

The affected person’s prescription document was left on the pc chart, and Hong Chul-soon approached his aspect.

“Wow. I am actually blissful each time I’m on obligation with Dr. Dowook. How many individuals did you cowl by your self?”

“I am executed with the information.”

When he stepped again from the pc chart monitor, Hong Chul-soon additionally continued to speak a few prescription.

“Senior Chang Soo must be taught from Dr. Dowook, too. He all the time simply tosses the affected person. Or get offended.”

“Even when you speak behind somebody’s again, you need to get the information proper. I solely do this when there’s too many sufferers, not on a regular basis.”

Hong Chul-soon flinched on the sudden voice.

As Seong Chang Soo approached along with his eyes on him, Hong Chul-soon, who turned his head, closed his mouth. Seong Chang Soo, who was taking pictures Hong Chul-soon with a glance of “I’ll cope with you later,” turned his head.

“I am executed working now.”

“The affected person?”

“Finished with the care. The chief additionally gave the okay.”

Earlier, Dowook noticed Seong Chang Soo puncturing the central vein with a 24-gauge needle as an alternative of a typical 14-gauge needle. That was a skillful response, which he may notice even with out Chief Ji’s sense.

“Take a relaxation”.

“No method. I’ve to arrange for tomorrow’s convention. I will be within the medical workplace, so let’s have a late night time snack later. Oh, by the way in which. What I could not say earlier…….”

Dowook shook his head instantly.

“Simply faux you did not hear that. I do not need any extra recommendation from you.”

“What! I wasn’t going to say this. Just lately, Chief Ji and Director Lim…….”

Seong Chang Soo’s voice was lowered much more in case anybody may hear him.

“They’d a dialogue. I heard it by chance whereas sleeping within the medical workplace, however I feel one thing big will occur to the hospital. What was it known as? A bunch boycott occasion? They’re making ready one thing like that.”

The board members’ plans appeared to have been poorly understood by the vice dean.

“Anyway. She mentioned this to Chief Ji. Even when there’s an inside dispute, the New 12 months’s marketing strategy won’t be shaken, so please hold your steadiness. It is the day earlier than the storm. Director Lim is on the heart of it. What do you assume this implies?”

“What are you speaking about?”

“Is not this a narrative of affection rising up on this tragedy? So to talk, you are Romeo and she or he’s Juliet.”

Dowook facepalmed on the bizarre conclusion Seong Chang Soo arrived at.

“By no means thoughts. Go away”.

“The environment on the hospital is extraordinary.”

“Okay, go residence.”

Seong Chang Soo’s again was pushed within the path of the employees locker room, and Yeom Jinsoo might be seen in entrance of the reception desk holding the receiver with teary eyes.

Seong Chang Soo was shocked and requested.

“Jjinsu. What’s improper with you?” [T/N: Just a nickname Seong Chang Soo gave the new intern.]

“S-senior. The affected person appears to have hyperventilation syndrome, however the inside drugs physician refused to return after I known as for assist.”

“What?”

Seong Chang Soo appeared on the therapy room the place the affected person was sitting. A male affected person with dry palms, a typical symptom of hyperventilation syndrome. He was presently present process non permanent therapy with a respirator in his mouth.

He took the telephone.

“That is Seong Chang Soo from Emergency.”

-Come on. Why do you retain bothering me after I mentioned no?

“Did you see the chart? Blood strain 180 and 100. Pulse 98. Respiratory fee 40.There are additionally indicators of the trozo.”

-Cannot you see that oxygen saturation has dropped to 94% despite the fact that he’s hyperventilating? Verify correctly and word with correct signs. Do not waste my time.

Click on.

The telephone was hung up.

Solely then did Seong Chang Soo look intently on the pc chart and really feel improper.

“Jjinsu. Go and test the medical historical past once more.”

“What?”

“It isn’t hyperventilating syndrome. If you do not know the signs, you need to solely do goal issues in order that they’ll cooperate. Cheol-sooni. Observe me.”

Seong Chang Soo, who despatched two juniors, sighed deeply. Dowook requested.

“What’s improper?”

“Today, with the inner drugs docs. Cooperation isn’t the identical as earlier than. The environment modified dramatically this previous month. Like they’re making an attempt to eat emergency surgical procedure.”

Dowook had already skilled the inner drugs’s aggression within the outpatient clinic, so he solely listened silently.

“I can not say something as a result of I am not knowledgeable. It is nonetheless like that. In case you have signs, what occurs while you come down?”

“What sort of affected person is it?”

“Over there. Therapy no.2. The affected person with Jinsoo. It seems like hyperventilating syndrome, proper? However he mentioned no. I can’t determine it out in any respect simply by wanting on the chart.”

Dowook frowned on the chart.

“Hmm…. It is undoubtedly only a affected person who’s not simple to guage. I have to do a number of checkups to verify.”

“So please come down. That is not it. Inside drugs docs will probably be a lot better at diagnosing than emergency docs. They’re making an attempt to make you name them your self later.”

One particular person got here into Dowook’s sight as he listened to Seong Chang Soo’s lament.

“Huh?”

“Why?”

“Nothing.”

Dowook reached out after seeing his fairy who had simply entered the emergency room’s drug warehouse. With the fairy’s sense, Dowook turned to therapy room 2.

Mouth dryness and fatigue.

Gentle was flashing in crucial areas for figuring out signs.

“Senior. I’ve listened to the affected person’s medical historical past, however there’s nothing a lot to check with. What ought to I do?”

When Hong Chul-soon, who went with Yeom Jinsoo, hurriedly returned and mentioned this, Seong Chang Soo had an ungainly expression on his face.

“What do you imply? I’ll spin the examination after which do a noti.” [T/N: Short for ‘notify’ it means to call a senior doctor to ask for help with a difficult diagnosis. This would be fine if it really was a difficult case but if it was a simple one, then there’s a high chance for Seong Chang Soo to be scolded for being unskilled]

“Wait, Chang Soo.”

After finishing the reasoning, Dowook requested quietly.

“Ought to I attempt to noti?”
