'Ghost Doctor' Episode 2 Recap: Cha Young Min Falls Into a Coma
The second episode illustrates more about the thoracic surgeon's car accident.
In "Ghost Doctor" episode 2, Cha Young Min (Rain) went to the meeting place where he and his ex-girlfriend Jang Se Jin (UEE) used to hang out.
Unfortunately, she never came but received a call from the ICU updating Chairman Jang's status.
Of course, he tried to be in Eunsang University Medical Center as soon as possible but ended up in a car crash.
Prior to this, he noticed that a motorcycle was following him.
While the first episode featured Ko Seung Tak (Kim Bum) doing his first-ever operation, the doctors warned him that professor Cha's BP was declining and needed another operation.
Unfortunately, the newbie doctor froze and did not know what to do. Thankfully, Dr. Ahn Tae Hyun (Ko Sang Ho) stepped in and wrapped up the operation.
Following the surgery and monitoring, the test concluded that Cha Young Min was in a coma after his brain got severely damaged during the accident.
Cha Young Min Meets Socrates
The result shocked the doctors and left Cha Young Min devastated.
Visiting his body and checking on his vitals, he saw that the drain was not connected.
Luckily, a cleaning lady fixed it and thought she could see him; however, a man got out of the female's body and introduced himself to the professor.
His name is Tess, short for Socrates, the Greek philosopher. Unlike Cha Young Min, Tess can enter anyone's body because he is dead.
Since the thoracic surgeon is in a coma, it could only mean that he could touch, hold or enter anyone's body, except for Ko Seung Tak.
To recall, Cha Young Min operated on himself by using the newbie's body. Handling a solo surgery shocked the whole hospital and became the talk of the town.
Meanwhile, after the surgery, Ko Seung Tak was also baffled about how he managed to pull it off.
He even asked his senior Oh Soo Jung (APink Son Na Eun) to keep things secret between them.
Chairman Jang's is in Coma
Apart from the top-notch doctor, his patient and the hospital's VIP were also diagnosed with comatose due to malpractice.
Cha Young Min insisted that he did the operation successfully and wondered what went wrong after the procedure.
Since he can roam around the hospital without being seen, he overheard the conversation between his junior Ahn Tae Hyun and Kim Jae Won.
The resident gave a large dose of a substance that was quite dangerous to the patient. Dr. Ahn went furious and seemed bothered by Chairman Jang's condition.
Kim Jae Won then revealed that he asked Ko Seung Tak to inject the substance since he was also in an emergency.
Was Ko Seung Tak Involved in Chairman Jang's Incident?
Cha Young Min visited the chairman's office and saw his ghost sitting near his bed.
The two heard that his son plans on killing his father through medical malpractice.
Moreover, he was surprised to see that the son was talking to the vice president of the hospital's administration Han Seung Won (Tae In Ho.)
Following Seung Won, professor Cha saw him and Ko Seung Tak talk about something.
"Don't forget that I'm right beside you, Okay," he tells the newbie doctor.
At the doctor's office, Ko Seung Tak reflects on his actions, especially with Chairman Jang and Doctor Cha's case.
Sensing that he might be involved in a plotted murder against the chairman, Cha Young Min was very disappointed at Dr. Ko and thought he did it just to pass the board exam and fulfill his parents' wish.
