Today, we’ll be discussing Episode 5 of Hospital Playlist, starring Jo Jung-suk as Lee Ik Joon, Yoo Yeon-seok as Ahn Jeong Won, Jung Kyung-ho as Kim Jun Wan, Kim Dae-myung as Yang Seok Hyung, and Jeon Mi-do as Chae Song Hwa. We discuss:
Two songs from the episode:
“Oh? What a Shiny Night” by Mido and Falasol
“Beautiful My Love” by Urban Zakapa
The meaning behind the name Mido and Falasol, the group credited with the Hospital Playlist OST songs, and why so many of their songs became huge hits in Korea.
How this episode shows that medicine can’t be separated from people and emotions—the patients, their families, and the doctors and nurses caring for them.
The heartbreaking child abuse case, how Ahn Jeong Won recognizes the warning signs, and why doctors are responsible for reporting suspected abuse rather than proving it.
The congressman’s elaborate scheme to disguise the identity of his liver donor, and why modern hospital identification and transplant procedures would make such a switch extremely difficult.
The baby with moyamoya disease, why Chae Song Hwa orders that the baby not be allowed to cry, and how hyperventilation could further reduce blood flow to the brain.
The complicated ways families respond to illness: a daughter willingly donating part of her liver to her father, a wealthy son refusing to donate to his father, and a father insisting that Kim Jun Wan give his son the most expensive heart valve available.
Do Jae Hak’s excitement over his matured jeokgeum, or installment savings account, and his plans to use the money for a jeonse lease—and the ominous warning that he should read his lease very carefully.
Divorce in Korea and the very different experiences of Lee Ik Jun, Yang Seok Hyeong, and Seok Hyeong’s mother, who refuses to divorce her unfaithful husband even after his mistress announces that she is pregnant.
All the developing romances: Jang Gyeo Ul pining for Ahn Jeong Won, Chu Min Ha beginning to see Yang Seok Hyeong differently, Ahn Chi Hong confessing to Chae Song Hwa, and Kim Jun Wan finally confessing to Lee Ik Sun.
The alarming ending in which Chae Song Hwa becomes the patient after discovering a suspicious mass and is told she needs a biopsy.
