Captain Yoo Shi Jin met up again with Kang Mo Yeon, with his chich soldier uniform, he claimed to be the one responsible for the security and safety during their stay in Urk as Mowuru Company Commander, Captain Yoo Shi Jin. Kang Mo Yeon sees him with her expressless expression, it's most likely shocked yet happy to meet him again after 8 months.
Meanwhile, Captain Yoo passed by her without saying anything and just looking cool enough for me to want to hug him!! (*kyaaaa*) After giving the rest of the doctors an army bag, he picks up Mo Yeon's scarf and give it to her without saying anything and both of them just stares on each other.
They came back to the camp and the doctors are welcomed by flower arrangements. After that, they unpack their bag and some other stuffs they need to carry. There are also some medical cube for the doctors to use as part of their duties. The rest of the doctors who heard the converstation between Mo Yeon and Director from the hospital gossiped about her that being sent there was part of Mo Yeon's punishment, not just a volunteer work.
Mo Yeon unpacks her things with one of the nurses. Suddenly, Gi Bum, the thief who ran away from the hospital the other day was there to say hello to them. Mo Yeon is surprised to see how come he is there and becomes a soldier who give their life for the peace of the nation. She asked him how he is doing after being hurt on his right knee eight months ago and he answers her that he is super fine.
Then, Mo Yeon comes out from her camp and wants to explore the place. She accidentally see Yoo Shi Jin comes out from the car and brought a box that was sent over specially for Seo Dae Yong. Without saying anything, he walks away from Mo Yeon. Mo Yeon who is cleaning up her shoes says, "Does he not see me? Or is he ignoring me?" leading to the assumption that the string between them had broken up.
However, Captain Yoo with his desperate expression, look at the mirror for the presence of Kang Mo Yeon. Still awkwardly in silent and does not know what he should do. He knows that the doctor who comes there is Mo Yeon, but he doesn't know what to do about it. Fate leads them to meet again, but they are not destined to be together.
Captain Yoo gives the box to Dae Yong, assuming the gift box is from Myeong Jo, but Dae Yong told him it may be a handbomb but Shi Jin refuses that man can only die once and order him to open the box, like a man. Dae Yong opens it and said the red ginseng is supposed to be for the other Sergent and Captain Yoo asks for his gift but there is nothing for him and said, "Woah, this Myeong Jo, even after she brokes up with you, she still care a lot for you." leading Dae Yong to say, "This is what I am sad about." and told Captain Yoo that his gift is coming on the way there, which means Myeong Jo is coming there also for him.
In Seoul, Myeong Jo is informing her father that she is going to Greece for the sake of Dae Yong. She even can't wait to go there to meet him. The letter she sent to Dae Yong includes her line of, "I miss you every day." But her father said again to her that he likes Yoo Shi Jin better since he is a General Material and threatens her, by doing things like that will only give Dae Yong a hard time.
She said that her father should not treat based on personal feelings as a superior or else he will lose an excellent subordinate. His father said that Dae Yong stays in the army based on his advice. But then Myeong Jo states that Dae Yong choose to stay in the army is not because her father is a great superior, but because Dae Yong is a true soldier and because of that, she is in love with him no matter how the rank is divided in the army and she won't ever let him go. She still insists to go there even if her father stops her again this time, her dad will lose both a Lieutenant Yoon Myeong Ju and also a daughter Yoon Myeong Ju.
Mo Yeon see a bunch of children just around the restricted area across the camp after her phone call with her friends in Seoul, stating that she met again with the same guy eight months ago. The children are sucking their tumbs and Mo Yeon said don't eat that because it's dirty and gives one of them a snack. But then the rest of the children are asking for their part. Suddenly, Yoo Shi Jin comes to rescue her. He tells the children to go to the camp to get food and enjoy the welcoming party. Then he turns his back to Mo Yeon, asking her bravery for crossing the fence into the restricted area. Mo Yeon doesn't back off and asked him the same question. Then she just walked away, but there is a sound from the place she stands. Shi Jin jokes along with her, saying that it's a trap and she shouldn't move anywhere.
Mo Yeon believes in him, even asks him whether she is going to stay alive or not. She also begs him to save her and asks him whether he can rescue her from the bomb trap just like the one she saw last time on TV. Shi Jin said, during his 25 years being an outdoor guy he has only seen only one person who can disarm with Swiss army knife. Mo Yeon asks him who and he answers her, it's the one that Mo Yeon saw on TV. Mo Yeon feels being trapped by him and cursed him. Shi Jin then asks her attitude for cursing somebody who is indded the only one who can keep her alive. Then Mo Yeon begs him to call somebody again, but Shi Jin walk closer to her and said that he is going to replace himself to die instead.
Mo Yeon shocked and said it doesn't make sense if he is going to die to save her. Then because the closer they get, Shi Jin and Mo Yeon fell onto the ground together, with Shi Jin smiles while closing his eyes and Mo Yeon shakes her head, asking why there is no bomb sound.
Shi Jin then slighty lean his hand towards Mo Yeon and said "How have you been?" which makes Mo Yeon realizes that she is being tricked and sheds tears for causing her to panic. She then walks away and asks him not to even follow her or talk to her anymore.
Shi Jin worries that his joke has been taken seriously by Mo Yeon so he chases her and Dae Yong who see him, asks him what's going on. Shi Jin tells him that he has made that beautiful girl cry. Dae Yong responds him, "Seriously? U make her cry already?" which tell us that their bromance is really full of blossoms XD. Shi Jin runs to her and says he is sorry for his over-joking and at that time, the Korea's flag is being flown into the sky. Shi Jin gives his salute and he turns Mo Yeon to give her oath position for their duty as a soldier and doctor.
The next day, Mo Yeon and the other nurses are having a good sight of the soldier guy who is shirtless with their good looking fugure going for a run. Shi Jin comes and asks her what's her planning for the medical team in the morning and afternoon. She ignores him because she is having a good time with the soldier showing off their body. Shi Jin knows that and tells the soldiers to get back to the camp since their jog time has finishes.
Suddenly there is a sound across the mountain road, and there is a claim for an accident of truck. Team Korea has gone there to check whether there is any significant impact. Shi Jin saw there are two foreigners, one of them is dead and the other one is hurt. The victim claims they are UN and there should be no harm but Shi Jin found out that they are actually the guy behind gun black-market.
Shi Jin comes back to the base and wants to report this incident. Meanwhile, Mo Yeon asks Dae Yong whether there is a Wi-Fi over there because she needs to wire money. Dae Yong suggests Mo Yeon to come together with Shi Jin, because Shi Jin is going downtown and the place is near to the internet cafe.
Shi Jin asks whether Dae Yong eat something wrong this morning but agrees finally to take Mo Yeon and enjoys their free time together. Shi Jin drives and Mo Yeon is on her phone saying she is going to wire the down payment.
Shi Jin also asks her whether she is moving. She said no and tells him her plane to quit from the hospital and starts her own clinic. Shi Jin asks her whether it is because of the scandal with the Hospital Director. Mo Yeon is surprised to know that Shi Jin even knows about the scandal and asks him how does he know? Shi Jin tells her that when she is not around, all of the medical team talk about it.
He then said, "He seems like not a nice guy. I am giving up on you not for you to date that person", Mo Yeon explains that she is not even dating the Hospital Director and said she was sent there as a symbol for her punishment, that's why she should wire the money to open her own clinic.
Mo Yeon asks him what's across the ocean there and Shi Jin tolds her that place is too far.
Shi Jin then drops her on Daniel's store (I dunno what store it is, but it seems Shi Jin is pretty close with Daniel. Daniel has a Korean wife - but that girl claims herself as co-partner only) and tells her to stay there, transfers the money and he will be back for a while. Shi Jin comes to the base and the Commander tells him not to care about the black-market selling of gun because the time is near for their comeback to their home-country and if there is nothing wrong, the Commander and Shi Jin will be promoted. Shi Jin smiles and said okay. Then suddenly there is an order for Sergent Seo Dae Yong to come back to Korea asap.
On the way back, Shi Jin has his depression look on his face. Mo Yeon can tell Shi Jin is bothered by something and he reveals that Dae Young’s transfer order came down. He’s upset because the reason for that transfer isn’t proper – it’s not the order of a superior officer but of a father. Mo Yeon understands that Myung Joo’s father is a key player in this makjang drama which is still going on. She also asks him how Dae Yong and Myeong Jo first meet.
Shi Jin tolds her, at that time, Myeong Jo is an army surgeon and notices Dae Yong for having an injury but insists not to be treated and get the first place. Myeong Jo suspects him wanting the first place so that he can gain a vacation to attend his ex-gf wedding and crushing the wedding party. Dae Yong says that's the truth and both of them comes to the wedding to crush it, with Myeong Jo's suggestion to bring her also to the wedding. The problem is that. Myeong Jo's dad prefers Yoo Shi Jin to become his son-in-law because he is a General material and the future will be good. But Myeong Jo said she doesn't like Shi Jin's face because it's too dandy.
They are arriving somewhere around the boat and Shi Jin said they are going to the beach, and it will be better to go there before they both get busy. Mo Yeon asks him, just now he says that place is too far. Then, with a strong gaze, Shi Jin says, "Yes, it's far and I want to spend a long time with you."
Mo Yeon stops and doesn't follow Shi Jin towards the boat. Shi Jin said, if she is curious enough about Dae Yong and Myeong Ju, she should follow him. Shi Jin continues his story and it stops when Mo Yeon hears that Myung Joo’s dad wants Shi Jin to be his son-in-law. She wants to know if Shi Jin-Myung Joo-Dae Young is in a love triangle? Shi Jin nonchalantly says yes and doesn’t think Mo Yeon has any right to ask since she dumped him already and asks Mo Yeon why she is so curious about it when she doesn't even interested on him. Mo Yeon tries to act cool about it but Shi Jin can tell she really wants to know.
Shi Jin helps Mo Yeon onto the speedboat and they take off for the island to go explore a landlocked vessel on the beach. The scene is very spectacular, with Shi Jin being confident and charming enough to say "Hold on tightly or you will fly away." The background song also fits perfectly. I can tell it's K.Will voice. Maybe this OST will become part 4. After they arrive, Shi Jin offers his hand to help Mo Yeon off the boat but she ignores it and jumps right on the beach.
Mo Yeon thinks this place is too pretty and Shi Jin tells her to come back. He picks up a rock from the island and explains that the local culture believes that taking a rock from here will lead a person back to return the rock. He gives the rock to Mo Yeon and she finds the belief very romantic. Wandering through the shipwreck, Mo Yeon wonders how this ship got stuck here? Shi Jin thinks it was captivated by here, and people get stuck when captivated.
Mo Yeon asks if Shi Jin has ever been captivated and he admits he has and she knows all about it. OMG. That means it's by HER!!! Mo Yeon and Shi Jin stare at each other silently until he asks what her answer is to his question about how she’s been these days? Does she still look sexy in the OR? Mo Yeon remains cool to Shi Jin, dispelling his belief that she’s here for charitable reasons. She’s here because a powerful person is punishing her and her goal is to go back as soon as she can and regain her position back home. She is also not doing surgeries anymore because it doesn’t help her career. Shi Jin says he understands while Mo Yeon caresses the rock in her hand.
Mo Yeon and Shi Jin arrive back on the base to see Chi Hoon (played by Onew from Shinee) carrying the boy into the infirmary. Mo Yeon checks him out and is trying to figure out what the ailment is, and wonders if the kids around here are ingesting something bad. Mo Yeon remembers the kids out scrounging and eating some stuff. She orders Chi Hoon to administer some treatment for poisoning.
Shi Jin offers to help translate when the boy wakes up but Mo Yeon keeps him at a distance saying this is for the medical team to handle. Shi Jin brings up how the Dr. Kang he knew believed that all life was precious so why is she not doing her best.
Mo Yeon says this is a rare condition but Shi Jin rebuts that it’s rare in Korea but common here. Mo Yeon thinks not all doctors are working out in the field all the time and Shi Jin agrees, some go on TV shows.
Mo Yeon says this is a rare condition but Shi Jin rebuts that it’s rare in Korea but common here. Mo Yeon thinks not all doctors are working out in the field all the time and Shi Jin agrees, some go on TV shows.
In this episode, we also see how Myeong Jo's father came to Dae Yong last time and told him to let his daughter go for the sake of her future. Dae Yong asks him whether it's an order or not and he said, he doesn't want to go that further but if that keeps him from getting closer to his daugther, he will surely do that.
Neither are happy after that exchange but Shi Jin has more important matters to tend do as the base is placed under level 2 security emergency. Dr. Song wonders if enemy is attacking while Chi Hoon is willing to treat even the enemy since he is a doctor. The medical team is ordered to convene immediately for an arriving VIP patient.
Turns out an Arab envoy Mubarat who is in Urk to broker peace talks collapsed on his way back and is being rushed to the closest medical facility which is at the base. Both North and South Korea is informed about this development and General Yoon calls in a meeting with the Blue House.
Shi Jin hands Mo Yeon the medical file on the VIP patient and the doctors see that a lot of information has been blacked out. Mo Yeon says VIP patients often lie about their medical history anyway. Shi Jin radios in that the patient has arrived and is being treated now.
The doctors take the patient’s vitals and is about to treat him when the head bodyguard hands over a prescribed medicine from the envoy’s personal doctor. They inject it when the vitals start to drop precipitously and the patient’s abdomen swells up. Mo Yeon says the patient has hemoperi, his abdomen is bleeding, and needs surgery immediately.
The envoy’s bodyguards refuse to let him be operated on by non-Arab doctors and draw their guns to stop the surgery. Shi Jin demands to know from Mo Yeon whether she can save him? Mo Yeon pauses before saying that surgery will save the patient’s life. Shi Jin and his squad pull their guns and face off with the envoy’s bodyguards as he orders Mo Yeon to do the surgery.
My personal thought:
Episode 3 marks the reuniting between our main OTP after eight months of longing. I can see clearly that Shi Jin is respecting Mo Yeon's decision back in Seoul when he let her walk away so coolly, not because he agrees with their different way of thinking. He doesn't know what to do when she appears again in his life.
But again, he is there and I like how he teases Mo Yeon everytime and glad to know he is able to speak out what he thought. The one I like the most is, "It's nice meeting you again..." left a very deep impression on me. That means he is thinking of her all this time. I also love how there is much interaction between our main OTP which is smoothly written. We can see their chemistry development and there is no pressure as far as I see since they are slowly but intensely trying to understand each other's mind. One of my fave interaction is on the shipwreck beach, in which Shi Jin admits he has ever been bewitched by things that are too beautiful.
Well, now I remember what Kim Eun Sook has written before in Secret Garden, "Things that are too beautiful sometimes are far from our reach." and well, the concept comes back again here. Meanwhile, Mo Yeon seems confused as to what she should do. Should she come back to where they were left off before? I know she seems curious enough about Shi Jin-Dae Yong-Myeng Jo's love line, but well, she can’t help but still be intrigued and attracted to Shi Jin, at the same time not wanting to pick up where they left off.
Besides, their conversation here is a bit more like trying to understand the limit and perspective. I’m glad that Shi Jin got to make a dig at Mo Yeon's doctorly aspirations on saving lives contrasted with her current lifestyle of being a VIP doctor on TV. I really enjoy episode 3 so far, because not only the relationship development between our main OTP, but also our second OTP, I got a really clear background now about Dae Yong and Myeong Ju. I guess, there won't be a love triangle between Song Joong Ki, Song Hye Kyo and Kim Ji Won, because by those conflicts in the war area, it has been a really hard time to even consider love story
There is nothing wrong for this drama to get a 23% on rating because I like every second of it, specially the shipwreck, the cinematography is really amazing and I am glad they shot in Greece. Because it's really too beautiful there.
Episode 4 in my opinior, is going to be all about Mo Yeon's perspective, on how she feels when she knows Shi Jin doesn't obey the order from above to not operate the president. This is because they will blame the Doctor if the President dies.
