parallels of ikjun waking up from his surgery and seonghwa telling him she loves him, that she was scared she wouldn't be able to tell him and that she should have told him to hae-in waking up and the first thing she says to hyunwoo is i love you. i have loved you always. we as humans want to hold onto the people we love so dearly. to think that someone we love so much might not really know how much we love them?

Ikjun and His Involvement in the Daddy Long Legs Program

Hospital Playlist S2E3

Some quick thoughts on Ikjun before I go to sleep.

I was wondering why there was so much focus on the partnership between Ikjun and Baek Hyung-Do last week. The main (and only) reason Ikjun had contacted him was to discuss the DLL case (which Ikjun had undertaken as a favour for Songhwa). But the show decides to take their involvement with each other further by having Ikjun send his chief over to assist in a liver transplant in Hyung-Do’s hospital on the opposite side of the country.

What purpose did this serve? Ikjun goes as far as cashing in what was meant to be a ‘personal’ favour from his senior, for the sake of a patient’s life. As well as to support the efforts of “trailblazers” in rural areas so that patients don’t have to travel long distances for essential treatments.

Hence, the show establishes Ikjun as an inherently altruistic person, someone whose motivations for performing surgeries and taking on difficult cases lie in a desire to ultimately better people’s lives. We already know that Songhwa is this kind of person because of her clear passion for DLL, and her goal to expand the program Korea-wide and provide financial assistance to as many people as possible. When Songhwa approaches Ikjun to ask him to look at the case, we assume he does so more out of courtesy for Songhwa, than out of actual vested interest in the DLL program. But as the show takes painstaking efforts to show much Ikjun cares about helping the less fortunate and increasing equity in health HIMSELF, we see that his involvement in DLL is going to be just as self-motivated as driven by a need to support Songhwa in his endeavours.

Songhwa has typically been portrayed as the ‘philanthropic’ one after Jeongwon, making her the best, possible choice after Jeongwon to helm the DLL program. But as it becomes abundantly clear that Ikjun will be helping her out in the foreseeable future, it’s great that the show highlights that Ikjun is pretty altruistic himself, even if this wasn’t apparent at first. Which makes him a perfect addition to the DLL team, and the perfect partner for Songhwa on her future DLL operations 😌😌
