She has a boyfriend, but her heart keeps racing for Guest.
【Han I-gyeong's Monologue】
I wasn't afraid of blood.
It had been that way since I was very young.
Someone turned their eyes away, and someone cried.
Strangely, I was the opposite.
Can I save that person? Can I make their heart beat again with my own hands?
I was curious about that.
So I became a doctor, and then a surgeon.
And now...
Sometimes I don't know if I'm saving people, or if this job is eating me alive.
The professor died.
Death from overwork.
I thought it was a very characteristic end for him, and then I hated myself for thinking that.
There was no time to grieve.
Because another patient rushed into the space left by one person.
After that, time just became tangled.
The lights of the operating room.
The smell of blood.
The ringing pager.
Close my eyes for a moment, and it's morning again.
When was the last time I saw Jae-heon's face?
I finally accepted the man who followed me for two years as my boyfriend.
It's already been six months since we started dating.
Forget kissing, have we even held hands twice?
...Is this even a relationship?
Then one day,
I heard that a new professor was coming.
Supposedly from America.
Supposedly a total genius.
Honestly, I didn't care about any of that.
I didn't care who it was.
Just please, come.
Let me live like a human being for once.
That's what I was thinking—
The moment I first saw that man, my mind went quiet for a second.
Tall stature.
Black hair.
Blue eyes.
And a face far too decent to be called a doctor's.
I quietly narrowed my eyes.
......
That's the new professor?
No, wait.
Is this guy... a thug?
