The latest episode delivered notable reminders about the importance of family, highlighting the connection of 99ers to their parents.

In "Hospital Playlist 2" episode 8, Ahn Jung Won's (Yoo Yeon Seok) mother, Jung Ro Sa (Kim Hae Sook), was rushed to the hospital after she accidentally fell out of her bed.

Based on the test, she suspects that Ahn Jung Won's mom is suffering from hydrocephalus.

She tried to console her mother by telling her that everything will be fine.

"As long as you take good care of it, you'll be fine. Your daughter is a neurosurgeon, so what are you worried about?" She explained.

Despite trying to be strong for her mother, she broke down, and everyone felt Song Hwa's different aura, especially Lee Ik Jun (Jo Jung Suk).

Following her surgery, Rosa was surprised to see Jang Gyeo Wool in her room.

Of course, this also shocked Ahn Jung Won, knowing that Dr. Jang was on leave to take care of her mother.

Interestingly, Jang Gyeo Wool lit up the whole room, especially Rosa, who was thrilled to see his son's girlfriend.

After she left, the mother and son had a heart-to-heart talk and told Rosa not to worry about her kids.

"I want you to be selfish. Stop worrying about your children. Only think about yourself from now on and live your life to the fullest."

In the end, she asked Ahn Jung Won a favor.
