1. 1

   C 선생님들, 뼈해장국 두 그릇 나왔어요. 오늘은 두 분이 왜 이렇게 말이 없어요? 싸웠어요?

   Seonsaengnimdeul, ppyeohaejangguk du geureut nawasseoyo. Oneureun du buni wae ireoke mari eopseoyo? Ssawosseoyo?

   Here you go, doctors, two bowls of pork-bone soup. Why are you two so quiet today? Had a fight?

   Line 1
2. 2

   B 아니에요, 사장님. 그냥 좀 피곤해서요. 잘 먹겠습니다.

   Anieyo, sajangnim. Geunyang jom pigonhaeseoyo. Jal meokgetseumnida.

   No, not at all. We're just a bit tired. Thank you for the food.

   Line 2
3. 3

   A 서진아, 먹으면서 얘기하자. 아까 그 일, 너 진짜 보고할 거야?

   Seojina, meogeumyeonseo yaegihaja. Akka geu il, neo jinjja bogohal geoya?

   Seojin, let's talk while we eat. About earlier. Are you really going to report it?

   Line 3
4. 4

   B 해야지. 박 선배가 약 용량을 열 배로 잘못 입력한 거, 간호사 선생님이 발견 안 했으면 큰일 날 뻔했잖아.

   Haeyaji. Bak seonbaega yak yongnyangeul yeol baero jalmot imnyeokan geo, ganhosa seonsaengnimi balgyeon an haesseumyeon keunil nal ppeonhaetjana.

   I have to. Dr. Park entered a dose ten times too high. If the nurse hadn't caught it, it could have been a disaster.

   Line 4
5. 5

   A 근데 환자는 결국 괜찮잖아. 투약 전에 잡았고, 선배가 고의로 그런 것도 아니고. 지금 말한들 뭐가 달라져? 선배만 곤란해지지.

   Geunde hwanjaneun gyeolguk gwaenchanchana. Tuyak jeone jabatgo, seonbaega gouiro geureon geotdo anigo. Jigeum malhandeul mwoga dallajyeo? Seonbaeman gollanhaejiji.

   But the patient's fine in the end. It was caught before it was given, and Dr. Park didn't do it on purpose. What difference will it make if you speak up now? It'll just get Dr. Park in trouble.

   Line 5
6. 6

   B 달라지지. 그 용량이 왜 경고 없이 전산에 들어갔는지 아무도 모르잖아. 다음엔 아무도 못 잡을 수도 있어. 병동 전체가 경각심을 가져야 하는 일이야.

   Dallajiji. Geu yongnyangi wae gyeonggo eopsi jeonsane deureoganneunji amudo moreujana. Daeumen amudo mot jabeul sudo isseo. Byeongdong jeonchega gyeonggaksimeul gajyeoya haneun iriya.

   It makes a difference. Nobody knows why the system accepted that dose without a warning. Next time nobody might catch it. The whole ward needs to be on alert about this.

   Line 6
7. 7

   A 선배가 조용히 넘어가자고 했잖아. 일 년 차가 보고하면 병원 생활 끝이야.

   Seonbaega joyonghi neomeogajago haetjana. Il nyeon chaga bogohamyeon byeongwon saenghwal kkeuchiya.

   Dr. Park asked us to let it slide quietly. If a first-year reports it, that's the end of your life at this hospital.

   Line 7
8. 8

   B 욕을 먹을망정 보고는 해야 돼. 우리가 입 다물면 다음 환자한테 똑같은 일이 생길 수도 있어.

   Yogeul meogeulmangjeong bogoneun haeya dwae. Uriga ip damulmyeon daeum hwanjahante ttokgateun iri saenggil sudo isseo.

   Even if I get chewed out for it, it has to be reported. If we keep our mouths shut, the same thing could happen to the next patient.

   Line 8
9. 9

   C 김치 더 드릴게요. 미안해요, 엿들으려던 건 아닌데 목소리가 좀 커서요.

   Gimchi deo deurilgeyo. Mianhaeyo, yeotdeureuryeodeon geon aninde moksoriga jom keoseoyo.

   Here's more kimchi. Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but you were talking a bit loud.

   Line 9
10. 10

    A 아, 죄송해요, 사장님. 저희가 너무 떠들었죠.

    A, joesonghaeyo, sajangnim. Jeohuiga neomu tteodeureotjyo.

    Oh, sorry about that. We were being too loud.

    Line 10
11. 11

    C 아니에요. 내가 여기서 이십 년 동안 선생님들 밥을 해 드렸어요. 새벽에 와서 국물만 뜨다 가는 날은 꼭 마음에 뭐가 걸린 날이더라고요.

    Anieyo. Naega yeogiseo isip nyeon dongan seonsaengnimdeul babeul hae deuryeosseoyo. Saebyeoge waseo gungmulman tteuda ganeun nareun kkok maeume mwoga geollin narideoragoyo.

    Not at all. I've been feeding doctors here for twenty years. The mornings they come in and only pick at the broth are always the mornings something's weighing on them.

    Line 11
12. 12

    B 사장님은 어떻게 생각하세요? 선배 실수를 보고하는 거요.

    Sajangnimeun eotteoke saenggakaseyo? Seonbae silsureul bogohaneun geoyo.

    What do you think? About reporting a senior's mistake.

    Line 12
13. 13

    C 나야 의사가 아니니까 잘 모르죠. 근데 직업을 막론하고 실수는 누구나 해요. 문제는 그다음이죠.

    Naya uisaga aninikka jal moreujyo. Geunde jigeobeul mangnonhago silsuneun nuguna haeyo. Munjeneun geudaeumijyo.

    Well, I'm not a doctor, so I wouldn't really know. But in any line of work, everyone makes mistakes. What matters is what comes after.

    Line 13
14. 14

    A 그다음이요?

    Geudaeumiyo?

    What comes after?

    Line 14
15. 15

    C 옛날에 우리 직원이 상한 선지를 모르고 국에 넣은 적이 있어요. 다른 직원이 바로 말해 줘서 그날 국 한 솥을 다 버렸죠. 그래도 가게는 안 망했어요. 숨겼으면 망했겠죠.

    Yennare uri jigwoni sanghan seonjireul moreugo guge neoeun jeogi isseoyo. Dareun jigwoni baro malhae jwoseo geunal guk han soteul da beoryeotjyo. Geuraedo gageneun an manghaesseoyo. Sumgyeosseumyeon manghaetgetjyo.

    Years ago, one of my staff put some spoiled ox-blood curd into the soup without knowing. Another worker spoke up right away, so we threw out a whole pot that day. But the restaurant didn't go under. If we'd hidden it, it would have.

    Line 15
16. 16

    B 제 말이 그거예요. 현우야, 보고는 선배를 벌주자는 게 아니야. 환자 안전 보고는 원래 처벌하려고 있는 제도가 아니잖아.

    Je mari geugeoyeyo. Hyeonuya, bogoneun seonbaereul beoljujaneun ge aniya. Hwanja anjeon bogoneun wollae cheobeolharyeogo inneun jedoga anijana.

    That's exactly my point. Hyunwoo, reporting isn't about punishing Dr. Park. The patient safety reporting system isn't there to punish anyone in the first place.

    Line 16
17. 17

    A 머리로는 알지. 나중에 발각되면 더 큰일인 것도 알고. 그래도 무서워. 선배 얼굴을 어떻게 봐.

    Meorironeun alji. Najunge balgakdoemyeon deo keunirin geotdo algo. Geuraedo museowo. Seonbae eolgureul eotteoke bwa.

    I know that in my head. And I know it'd be worse if it came out later. But I'm still scared. How do I face him afterwards?

    Line 17
18. 18

    B 그러니까 몰래 하지 말고, 회진 전에 선배한테 먼저 말하자. 같이 보고하자고. 선배도 속으로는 겁먹었을 거야.

    Geureonikka mollae haji malgo, hoejin jeone seonbaehante meonjeo malhaja. Gachi bogohajago. Seonbaedo sogeuroneun geommeogeosseul geoya.

    So we don't do it behind his back. Let's tell him first, before rounds. Ask him to report it with us. I bet he's scared inside too.

    Line 18
19. 19

    A 같이 하자고? ...그래, 선배가 화를 낸들 숨기는 것보다는 낫겠지.

    Gachi hajago? ...Geurae, seonbaega hwareul naendeul sumgineun geotbodaneun natgetji.

    Report it together? ...Okay. Even if he gets angry, it's better than hiding it.

    Line 19
20. 20

    C 자, 그럼 일단 국부터 드세요. 밤낮을 막론하고 사람은 밥심으로 버티는 거예요. 식으면 맛없어요.

    Ja, geureom ildan gukbuteo deuseyo. Bamnajeul mangnonhago sarameun bapsimeuro beotineun geoyeyo. Sigeumyeon madeopseoyo.

    Right, then eat your soup first. Day or night, people keep going on a good meal. It's no good cold.

    Line 20
21. 21

    B 네, 잘 먹을게요. 사장님, 오늘 국물이 유난히 진하네요.

    Ne, jal meogeulgeyo. Sajangnim, oneul gungmuri yunanhi jinhaneyo.

    Yes, we'll eat. The broth is especially rich today.

    Line 21
22. 22

    C 양심 지키러 가는 선생님들 거라서 고기를 한 점씩 더 넣었어요.

    Yangsim jikireo ganeun seonsaengnimdeul georaseo gogireul han jeomssik deo neoeosseoyo.

    It's for doctors on their way to do the right thing, so I put in an extra piece of meat each.

    Line 22
23. 23

    A 이러시면 더 도망 못 가잖아요. 서진아, 먹고 다섯 시 반에 선배 당직실로 가자.

    Ireosimyeon deo domang mot gajanayo. Seojina, meokgo daseot si bane seonbae dangjiksillo gaja.

    Now there's no running away. Seojin, after we eat, let's go to Dr. Park's on-call room at five-thirty.

    Line 23
24. 24

    B 응. 말하고 나면 속이 후련할 거야. 그리고 오늘 저녁은 내가 살게. 여기서 또.

    Eung. Malhago namyeon sogi huryeonhal geoya. Geurigo oneul jeonyeogeun naega salge. Yeogiseo tto.

    Yeah. You'll feel so much lighter once it's said. And dinner tonight's on me. Here again.

    Line 24
