Cha Young Min Regrets the Kind of Doctor He Used to Be
In "Ghost Doctor" episode 15, Cha Young Min recalled what type of doctor he had become. After meeting ghosts and knowing their thoughts, the thoracic professor felt a certain disappointment about himself.
It is because he couldn't save one of the coma ghosts Choi Hoon Kil (Choi Seok Won), whose health is deteriorating. He tells himself that he should have done things earlier to rescue him, but it's now too late.
On the other hand, the other coma ghost Hwang Kook Chan (Han Seung Hyun) reminded Professor Cha of how exceptional he is as a doctor.
Hwang Kook Chan expressed his deep gratitude towards Cha Young Min and mentioned how he took care of him even though he was not his patient.
The conversation with the coma ghost made Professor Cha realize that he can still save someone through Ko Seung Tak.
Cha Young Min to Undergo Bypass
As the tvN medical fantasy drama heads to its finale, Cha Young Min received shocking news about his surgery.
After the doctor's meeting regarding Professor Cha's surgery, they concluded that the only way they could save him was through bypass surgery.
Unfortunately, the downside is that he might not perform any critical surgery once he gets back.
Initially, Ko Seung Tak disagreed and vowed to search for a good doctor to help them with Young Min's condition. He mobilized all his connections to look for a doctor to perform the surgery.
In the latter part of "Ghost Doctor" episode 15, Professor Cha, who possessed Ko Seun Tak, had a talk with his former junior, Ahn Tae Hyun (Ko Sang Ho), and asked him to be his assistant while he performed his own surgery.
However, the next scene raised speculation that Dr. Ahn might endanger his senior. It came after he met Han Seung-won (Tae In Ho) and asked for the position for Cha Young Min.
