Tension rises in Hospital Ship when Kang Min Hyuk is shot.

In the recent episode of Hospital Ship 병원선, Song Eun Jae (played by Ha Ji Won) is taken as hostage by the drugs triad leader who forces her to perform an operation on the big boss who was seriously injured. Kwak Hyun (played by Kang Min Hyuk) volunteers to accompany Eun Jae to assist her in the operation.

Eun Jae observed the urgent situation and instructed Hyun to carry on the operation. She advised that the scalpel is a tool to save people's lives. They cannot turn it into a weapon of destruction. Hyun is quite reluctant to do so as laparotomy is a major operation which requires to be carried out in a proper hospital not at a rundown warehouse without medical equipment. 
             
The armed gun triad man threatened the doctors to carry out the operation within 3 hours. If they exceed by 1 minute, the rest of the members on board will be killed. Trembling with anxiety, Eun Jae suggested to transfer the patient on board for the operation. Hyun advised her to focus on saving the current injured patient. They will deal with the aftermath later and no matter what happens; they are not to be blamed for anything. 

Eun Jae and Hyun learned that the victim requires blood transfusion during the surgery and blood type required is B-type. They began collecting O and B-blood types from the staffs on board. Surgery was completed within 3 hours, however the gunman didn't keep his promise threatening to shoot Eun Jae. Hyun decided to swap his position as a hostage instead of Eun Jae.

                                  

The marine police came in time; angrily the gunman turned to Hyun and shot him. Hyun collapsed and was seriously injured with Eun Jae scrambling to her feet to save him.
They rushed Hyun to the Geoje Jeil Hospital with her telling him not to fall asleep. Eun Jae is determined to carry out the surgery calmly to ensure Hyun is safe. Jae Geol could see the tears and how Eun Jae is struggling inside to maintain her posture in the surgery room. Young Eun turned up only to be advised by Jae Geol that no one else could do that except for Eun Jae.
He felt a bit disappointed that he isn't the one lying on the surgery table instead Hyun took the bullet for Eun Jae. 

Hyun survived and regained consciousness. Eun Jae started to break down when he asked her if she is hurt anywhere as he wiped her tears. 

I knew it!!...it needs a scene where Hyun has to sacrifice himself or get injured to have Eun Jae realised how important he is to her. Are we waiting to see sparks fly off later on? Come to think of it, Hyun's mother knew  about Young Eun's web of lies. Hyun doesn't even have time to worry for Young Eun but only for Eun Jae's safety. Scriptwriter- can we speed up the happy relationship for Eun Jae and Hyun? I feel bad for Jae Geol too...he's a nice fella.
