Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©

A power struggle ensues at a hospital. Ye Jin-Woo (Lee Dong-Wook) is a doctor in the emergency medical center at Sangkook University Hospital. He has a warm heart and charisma. He admires hospital director Lee Bo-Hoon (Cheon Ho-Jin). One day, he hears from his brother Ye Sun-Woo (Lee Kyu-Hyung) that the hospital director placed government subsidy money into his personal bank account. On that night, the hospital director dies after falling off an apartment building rooftop where vice-director Kim Tae-Sang (Moon Sung-Geun) lives. His death is ruled an accident caused by a heart attack. Ye Jin-Woo believes otherwise.

Koo Seung-Hyo (Cho Seung-Woo) begins work as the president of Sangkook University Hospital. He is cool-headed and ambitious. As a businessman, he wants the hospital to become profitable. Other people tell him that running a hospital is different from running other businesses, but Koo Seung-Hyo doesn't see why a hospital is any different. So that the hospital can start turning a profit, he decides to transfer 3 departments, including the money hemorrhaging emergency medical department, to other hospitals. Hospital staff members oppose that idea and a strike is led by the vice-director. Meanwhile, Koo Seung-Hyo experiences the dark side of running a hospital, including cover-ups on patient's deaths.
