In the Previous episode both our lead Shi Jin finally kiss his Lady Doctor. I am sure everyone is absolutely bonkers over the sort of kiss. Since he is unable to drink in front of anyone he stole a taste of wine through kissing Kang Mo Yeon.

Hence the label wine kiss!

Stunned by the actions of the man, Mo Yeon hold onto the wine and he takes it away to set it off the side. Going straight for another kissing, hoping that she would allow him these liberties. Instead turning her head away, she denies our resident Captain and taking the wine bottle with her she said since he gave it to her. She left to her room, the outside is raining and Shi Jin is left all alone, wine-less. Haha



Originally, according to the Behind the scene, Song Hye Kyo wasn't suppose to take the wine bottle, but well I guess it changed the ad lib.

Scene places where Mo Yeon is having a flash back to all the actions of the funeral and to the talks she had with Shi Jin. Shi Jin in his own room starts to remove his tie and you can see his frustration.

Another scene shift to a bedroom, Ri Ye Hwa (Peacemaker Emergency Nurse Team) is noticing something off in her home and pull out the gun and head toward where the shadow is...she open the curtain and a nice handsome man is looking at her smiling. Our first refreshing introduction to Jasper Cho's character, Daniel Spencer (Peacemaker Emergency Doctor Team). According to an article Daniel Spencer character is pretty much the original character for the book they based DOTS from it is inevitable that they require this character to support the doctors with out border line up.

A total different take toward the military and regular hospital doctor group, moreover, he and Nurse Ri Ye Hwa are a bit of a mysterious pair that we don't really get too much information into. Only that Daniel Spencer does own this shop that is for mechanical repairs in Uruk as a hobby.

Daniel checking up on Ye Hwa ask her how she is...Ye Hwa character is bit robust and nagging like a wife. She question him as to why he didn't tell her where he was coming and going. Our dearest Daniel end up stating he was three months in Libya and a month in North Uruk with Chen Gang.

The reporting he does to Ye Hwa shows a slight intimacy between the two that he doesn't pause in giving her the details. Upset by hearing the dangerous places that Daniel went, she is waving around the gun at him, stunned he push the gun away and stating that nothing was as dangerous as having his wife point a gun at him.

Wow....wife. I am sure there is a back story to that since in the previous episode when Kang Mo Yeon meet her, she states that she isn't Daniel's wife. Changing the topic Ye Hwa asked him if he came back with Chen Gang, but the sadness slid over Daniel face at the words that Cheng Gang's gone back to the place he came from.

Curious Ye Hwa asked where, but then realize as she look at a photo of her, Daniel and another man then the black coat, she realize that Chen Gang most likely died. All we see is her getting up and leaving for the kitchen and just her back. I suppose it could be inferred that one of their Medical friend has died from a war or something, since Daniel indicated he was in North Uruk and the funeral clothes.

The view of the power plant that is being built in Uruk is quite impressive. I wonder if they use CGI to build such a structure and line it up with graphics of reproduce amount of solar panels. It somewhat look like the Tom Cruise Mission Impossible movies or even that of the newer James Bond Movies.

The introduction to the solar energy plant is given by Vice Manager Go stating that Haesung is number one in solar power construction and power, since it doesn't harm the environment and their construction group is even beating Germany. He brag they won the rights to construct the power plant in Uruk. The medical staff of Haesung is admiring the power plant and at the same time set up to do check up on the workers.

This is where we are introduce to another character in a red shirt and fedora hat. The man is the chief manager Jin Young Su (Richard Jin) of Urk electric power corporation, he isn't part of the Haesung group. He seem like a pompous man that states that he manages the entire project in Uruk and the is the person in charge, he also is asking who is the team leader, Professor of the group and to have them talk to him. However, our dearest Mo Yeon doesn't want to talk to him and went back to her group that are doing papers for the health check ups.

Receiving a phone call from Lee Chi Hoon, the boy eagerly want to tell her the good news and the bad news. The good news is the kid that suffer from lead poisoning name is called Blackey. The bad news is that Blackey is gone.

Kang Mo Yeon is inside the medic cube eyeing the empty cot and talking to Nurse Min Ji. Once again the woman lost another patient-this seems to be a trend with this nurse. She states she was checking Blackey's IV injection and left to bring him some snacks, when she got back the kid was gone.

Perhaps they should up the security or even use handcuffs! Granted that would be another can of worms there.

I also want to note Min Ji is dressed in a nice dress that is black with a white collar. Doesn't look like regular work clothes. It's been bugging me. Chi Hoon to level the unhappiness of Mo Yeon immediately lifted up a drawing that Blackey left. His assumption is Blackey went back home, since the image is of a house. Mo Yeon worried over one of their escape patient is trying to decide on what to do. Chi Hoon wants to go out and search for the kid and immediate snappy response from Mo Yeon is if he thin he is Tarzan since they are surrounded by Mountain, lakes, and terrain that they do not recognize.

Immediate response is to go ask Captain Yoo for help. The one person that Mo Yeon doesn't want to meet or talk to at this point in time. Time rightly, Shi Jin appears and Mo Yeon is recalling the kiss. The image is shown to Captain Yoo and immediately he is able to identify the landmark in the picture, stating the village name is Blackey.

Chi Hoon made a mistake on the name of the kid. Mo Yeon upset that Chi Hoon didn't even find out the name of the kid immediately raise her hand as to hit him and telling him to clench his teeth. I guess that is an expression to shut up or be quiet, since he has no right to sprout information if he doesn't really know.

Spotting Shi Jin giving her a glance she immediately back off, guess embarrassment still rings along in Doctor Kang. Chi Hoon said he would immediately go out and find the kid, he ask how far away is the village.

Shi Jin explains that sometimes children in Blackey village go to their outpost for some cookies. That it would take about a quarter of a day on foot. Making up her mind, Mo Yeon tells Chi Hoon to go give medical check up to the workers at the power plant today with Doctor Song.

I suspect that Mo Yeon doesn't believe that Chi Hoon could handle the issue at hand, since he made this mistake on the names. Surprise he asked her how she going to find the kid and she immediately said release the clenching. She indicate she will go with Captain Yoo to that village then. Obviously making the decision before even asking for the favor wow this woman is something indeed.

Immediately, Shi Jin said they will leave in 10 minutes, well he relented quickly. The car they are driving is white and look like a SUV Van or some sort that can seat five people. Traveling Shi Jin keeps on looking over at Mo Yeon. Immediately, she inform him to look at the road, since she doesn't want them to have an accident, wow she got eyes on the side of her head! Reassuring her that they would find the kid since this is the only road to the village, he then wanted to bring up the topic of last night and the kiss, but immediately Mo Yeon shot down the talk.

Stating she doesn't want to discuss it and that she need to sort out her mind. Shi Jin confessed that the thing he did that night and his actions he tried thousand of times to confess to her and to do it. Wow nice, it obviously got her to look at you amazed.

Arriving they see bunch of goats and the kid, that is now inside the room with his mother. Mo Yeon is explaining the bottle medicine and how many times to drink the medicine. She try to confirm from Shi Jin that the women is thanking her but he said that the woman is cursing her, obviously his feeling upset over what happen in the car.

Of course there are a bunch of kids outside the window and she said she recognize those kids from the base during picnic. Next scene happen is where Lieutenant Yoon Myung Joo is in Taebak base talking to Colonel Park Byung Soo. He seem very sub servant to her, which I find funny, quite attracted to our Army Surgeon and possibility of the fact her father is a General. Receiving a phone call she immediately said she has to take it, the man let her go quickly probably thinking its her father.

Instead it is Sergeant Kim Bum Rae that is calling to give her reports on Dae Young. Myung Joo obviously has her soldiers in Korea doing report on Seo Dae Young's schedule possibly wherever he goes. I suspect she even uses Yoo Shi Jin for that too.... Reporting wise he state that at 8pm Dae Young went to gym to worked out. At 9 pm he came back to the barrack and nagged the other soldiers. 9:30 pm he went too...appearance of Dae Young and the man immediately went to hide and stating he caught Dae Young's eye.

Myung Joo said she is jealous and now the poor man is saying Dae Young is approaching him...and he asked him what he is doing...then make the poor man run like the devil is after him to prepare him ramen.

In Uruk, Yoo Shi Jin bring Mo Yeon to the bar he usually frequents with Dae Young. In the bar he is all stiff claiming that this bar is Dae Young favorite place, talk about ratting out your comrade. Here Mo Yeon and Shi Jin go into a conversation of seriousness, it went from why he is in the military to what sort of man she wants. He asked her if she wants a rich man and she told him no and immediately he responded he knew it that it would have to be a handsome rich man.

Mo Yeon paid for the food as thanks to Shi Jin and while he went outside the bar to head to the car he spotted the man that he detained that claim he was U.N. Seeing Mo Yeon immediately he shield her and wants to send her to Daniel's shop to get her to safety and that it is possible for her to borrow a car from there to get back to base.

In the shop, Mo Yeon call out for Ye Hwa and instead meet Doctor Daniel. He claims he is half Korean and that his pronunciation might be a bit off. He claims that he likes fixing people and things even though the shop is his hobby.

Shi Jin then approaches the man and there the guy said how it would look for a peace keeper to point a gun at an un-arm civilian. He shot the car tire.

Inside Daniel shop Mo Yeon noted the gun shot.
Immediately the two men had their guns pointed at Shi Jin. He tell them that they aren't unarmed and that he want to know why they keep showing up wherever he is...that is when our antagonist comes along and we identify him as Captain David Argus. Argus immediately states that how many times he has to tell them to point the gun at the back of someone's head instead of aiming the guns.

Argus looking smug took off his sunglasses and identify Shi Jin as now a Captain. Shocked that the Delta Force Captain is now in Uruk of all places.

Inside the shop, Daniel is informing Mo Yeon that the fire that happened was due to a gang issue and that no one is hurt. Mo Yeon asked Daniel how he met Shi Jin. Daniel stated he met him during Funerals. Daniel offer tea and started to make some. Mo Yeon said she wanted to know about Shi Jin and what he does.

Immediately there is a flashback of Shi Jin being held captive and repeating his name, rank and serial number. He wouldn't give the radio codes and at this time Korean military came to save him. I think the Captain at the time was Lee Han Soo. Argus was saved by Shi Jin whom indicated that U.S. Delta Force Captain was there...and well during the mission of saving Shi Jin and the other guy he was shot.

Present time Shi Jin is asking why Argus is here and Argus said that he change jobs. He is no longer with the army or delta force. Shi Jin thought that he shouldn't have interfere with gods will because Argus should of died that day when being captured. If he didn't save him then he wouldn't he be here selling arms having a gang and causing issues. Argus is now a high profile mercenary and his only drive is money. He also now is in control of some corrupt officials, Shi Jin warns Argus to stay away from him and he then leaves. 

The scene switches to Mo Yeon whom told Daniel that is enough and he asked her if the information is enough meaning she would be leaving the Captain or staying. I guess he regret telling her and at the same time believe she need to know. Here Mo Yeon is driving a red jeep that belong to Daniel she glances at her phone while dialing Big Bosses number. Setting the phone on the dash board I suspect she is on the wrong side of the road and almost runs into a big rig truck. Freaking out she jerk the car to the side the dirt is hard for her to see and she didn't see the metal guard rail and went plowing through and down the hill.

Until the front wheels are over the cliff and the back wheels are still on the back portion. The license plate KEB-6099 is just a tidbit I want to throw out of there. Mo Yeon hands are trembling as she finally looks up scared.

The jeep is creaking and she starts to cry worried and scared on what to do. Finally Big Boss answers and she calls out Captain Yoo. Yoo Shi Jin said she must be on the road since she borrow a car. While trying to grab the phone the jeep roll in the front and she is crying out for help to save her.

Big Boss ask her where she is and she said she is over a cliff and to help her. Not having anymore signal she start to honk the horn and screaming for someone to save her. On her phone she switch to recorder and starts to dictate her will on it. She tell her mother not to cancel the annuities policy or any of the insurance policies. She is crying apologizing to her mother for all the mean thinks she said to her.  She crying saying she love her mother and tell Ji Soo that she put a lease or purchase on a clinic and told her to get the deposit back and to say good bye to Tae Won for her. (Whose Tae Won?) I heard the shii in the back so I assume it's a guy. She is now crying how come she has to die.

Then the car went forward some more since her leg cannot keep the brake on. The back of the jeep door is open and in pops the Captain. Immediately the Jeep went forward some more and he tells her not to move and to roll down the windows. Shi Jin then hops to the front and sit on the front causing a tilt. He immediately set her car seat back and then put on his seat bell. He told her to lean back and to release her foot off the brake. She tell him she doesn't want too and of cours ehe grip her hand and tell her he would get her out of this alive.

Feeling upset he immediately hit the wheel activating the safety air bags and tug down the brake as they went down the cliff and into the water. The next scene is Mo Yeon lain on the beach and Shi Jin is pumping her collar bone area and doing CPR. I want to note to the public CPR is not done in that area...I suspect that he didn't dare touch her chest area haha....

Waking up and coughing out water, she immediately starts to hit him with her first and checking her pulse rate crying. Shi Jin told her she must be fine if she can hit him. He tell her to get up, but she complains that she need a moment because she isn't a soldier. Shi Jin states that he cannot leave her alone, because when he did she ended up over a cliff of all places. Mo Yeon states in breathlessness still probably out of it from the fall, telling him she cannot take his jokes since she cannot laugh right now.

He seem pleased. Arriving back on base he immediately cover her up with his jacket stating to her that her clothes is see through because of the water and he doesn't want any other guys to see her this way. Mo Yeon asked him why he just didn't cover her up originally and he stated because he saw everything already and went off on his way. Aigoo...Yoo Shi Jin you naughty boy you!

Vexed she yelled at him as he walks away waving behind him without looking at her.

A image of an mansion comes up and immediately a man is shot dead to grab onto Chief Manager Jin's leg leaving blood on his pants. Argus is standing before stating that he wants the next diamond shipment in one week. He offer a roll of money to Jin whom stated to him that he doesn't care as long as he get his money, but wasn't the delivery schedule for 10 days original. However, Argus threaten him with a gun again and he states okay in one week.

At the power plant Manager Go is pinching Kang Min Jae ear and dragging him out. The kid loves to go to places in the plant area to secretly sleep instead of working. Chief Manager Jin appears and Manager Go welcome him even though the man isn't someone he likes. Manager Go asked him where his driver is and Jin immediately said he no longer work for them. Heading into the office Min Jae notices the blood on his pants.

Mo Yeon is in the kitchen of the facility keeping warm and drying both her clothes on a line with Captain Yoo's jacket. Mo Yeon is remembering the sound of a gun fire when she took the keep for the Jeep from Daniel. Shi Jin popped up offering her a coffee he brewed. Mo Yeon is glaring at him and called him a pervert.

Unable to help himself he question if it is because of her underwear asking black color whereas she immediately said it was blue. His witty retort if she didn't think he knew that and she immediately asked what he would be if not a soldier. Even I am wondering. Mo Yeon informed him if he needs a sedative because he must be in shock though at that point there was no shock. Shi Jin seem happy she is concern about her and she said yes she is because she owe him her life. He immediately became unhappy thinking she would treat anyman this way that save her life.

Mo Yeon ask him if he knew that she save her life that he place himself in danger to save her life. She tries to get a read on him and mentions about how he went to save private Ryan and whether it was a joke or not...but this brings along unhappy memories for Shi Jin because he recalls Argus and the trade off for his Captains life.

All he could do is confirm he did save Private Ryan and now this is the first day he regretted it. Mo Yeon asked him when he sent her off first that he lied to her. That's what you get for picking someone smart Captain Yoo. She can tell when he is lying and that the gun shot she heard was him quite preceptive and you can see the admiration he has for her intelligence.

Mo Yeon states because Shi Jin is like this that he makes things complicated. The light went off and only the fire place is providing light, since they have black outs constantly. The topic is changed and Shi Jin said he would scream if she did something to him. Mo Yeon thanks him for saving her but he still said he would still scream if she tries anything.

The light went on and Shi Jin peers at her amazed that she has this soft look on her face and he said that he is about to blush. The comment of him having tons of experience with women and the fast pace of how Mo Yeon constantly look at biceps in the morning and the jealousy in Shi Jin face. Oodles of humor added on when she mentions the car.

Next morning the car is tow to Daniel shop it is totally wrecked. Mo Yeon immediately blames Shi Jin asking if he could have not drown the car instead...but immediately apologizes. Shi Jin immediately said that Daniel can save the car, but then the bumper comes off and the door and the poor man fell onto his knees.

Captain Yoo even if Daniel is rich isn't this too much?

Table wise Daniel set out walkies talkies onto the table. Shi Jin wants these because they are much effective range and steadier then depending on satellite where cellphone signals can go off. Mo Yeon asked him how much it would cost and of course Daniel thought she would buy the walkies talkies, but she was referring to the car. Daniel starts to guilt her on the car, but Shi Jin immediately got up to defend her stating that Daniel should say good bye to the walkies talkies forever. Not sure if I should have taken that as a threat haha.

At the base, Shi Jin has the walkies talkies set up and giving instructions to Mo Yeon. He told her that medical team would be set on channel seven whereas the military channel would be 3. He pointed to the walkies talkies and said that the button is pressing and waiting before talking then letting go. He demonstrates it for her.

This is Big Boss, calling for medical team support. Over. 

Wow he does sound Professional. Trying to understand why Shi Jin uses the name Big Boss she asked if it is a nickname.

Shi Jin said it is a call sign that would refer to them and he said that she should use Beauty. She asked him if she look like a beauty at all to use that. This resulted in laughs when they get a knock and Lieutenant Myung Joo shows up.  Mo Yeon is surprised of course but the joking stature of the Army Surgeon saying she is here to marry Captain Yoo.

Yoo becomes nervous and states what she is saying and of course Myung Joo is surprise he is nervous. I guess the cat is out of the bag, he is attracted to Mo Yeon.

Of course this is all in jest since the woman doesn't have any designation. Mo Yeon immediately tates she would be leaving, Myung Joo wants her to shake with her, but Mo Yeon said her hands are full and she wouldn't ever forget what is between the two of them.

Shi Jin becomes curious as to what had happen between her and Mo Yeon. Myung Joo wittily states if they were reunited here because Shi JIn did something to come to this place or not. Shi Jin immediately said that he isn't like Myung Joo. Also he states that Mo Yeon is older then her and a senior of hers why she is treating her senior that way. Becoming defensive Myung Joo ask which side Shi Jin is but he immediately said not to change the subject and tell him what is between the two of them. Myung Joo states that she would ever accept Mo Yeon as her sister in law.

While this is going on out side the wooden door. Mo Yeon is using a stethoscope to listen in or trying too. Chi Hoon popped up with his own asking her if the door was sick. Surprised she drag the kid away.

Inside the office, Shi Jin states that the commander called to put in a good word for Myung Joo. Myung Joo teases if that would make Shi Jin treat her well. Whereas he states that his aim is to give her such a hard time that she decides to leave. Having intel Myung Joo states that Shi Jin return date has been pushed forward because of his father's discharge day. She asked if that was due to someone in the background, Shi Jin commented that perhaps it was...

Turns out we learn that General Yoon wants Shi Jin as his son in law, so he would do some favors and that is why he is teased as the son in law, even though both Shi Jin and Myung Joo are like siblings instead of lover status.

The two are teasing one another and we obviously get that they are comrades. Of course topics of Seo Dae Young comes on and Shi Jin said that Dae Young always call him and pick up his phone call. He makes to call and pretends he answer but then states that he isn't...he ask Myung Joo if she wants to leave a message.

Back in Korea Dae Young is training the troops. Boy is he training them hard. He does some scary things like have them on the arm range shooting the targets and appear in front one by one and the men are still shooting while he is walking. they are discharging their weapons except one guy when he stood in front of him and the target he states the guy still has three bullets and should shoot. Challenging the man.

Aiming the man shot three times and just clip the clothes of Seo Dae Young. I suspect he is training another group of black operation special forces. He is called by the Commander to the office. There Commander is asking him if there is anyone that qualifies for alpha team and he states they are only in training for five weeks for now.

Commander brought up his daughter and asked him if he thought his transfer orders were unreasonable and of course Dae Young blunt states that he agrees with her. However, Dae Young states to him that he agree with Commander since he doesn't approve of him and he think he isn't good enough for the mans daughter too. I find this portion sad but it also show the love and the understanding Dae Young has for the Commanders position and his concerns as a father.

During this point Dae Young is recalling the memories and the letter written by Myung Joo and how she is apologizing to him for what happened. Since she is a women that stand in a man way. Dae Young pull out his phone and see it is Myung Joo calling him, in Uruk it is day time in Korea it is night time. Dae Young look like he is about to cry, so I am feeling sorry for him because it must be tought for him. He continued walking on and not answering but overall the questions that Myung Joo had.

Chi Hoon pops out and asked Myung Joo if she is an army doctor and he wants to question her because he has to go into the army soon. Myung Joo wonder if he is flirting with her, but he immediately said no, that he wants to understand the army doctor dilemma and also she isn't that pretty. I can see way he said that he is in love and going to be a dad. HAHA Not to mention I am sure he see tons of pretty people since his a rich's man son.

Mo Yeon shows up and praises Chi Hoon on taste and of course they go into an argument both part and Mo Yeon believes she won the argument. Ah these two definitely has a funny history together. I cannot wait to see what else is added in.

Inside the building, the medical team is working on checking schedule and what needs to be done and questions. Min Ji asked why their meeting is inside the building instead of the medic cube. She points to the fan saying they cannot remove it to the medic cube. The walkies talkie came over and the call sign Beauty comes over and we can see that she is using the call sign he gave her. How cute, of course Shi Jin had to hear this whole conversation and the whole team run off. How embarrassing hahaha

Shi Jin said he need to talk to her and she said they have nothing to say since he has a fiancee. Then she leaves, inside the medic cube Miss B is Nurse Ja-ae. She is being hounded by Doctor Song again while she is sorting through the medical equipment. Doctor Song asked her if she think something is going on with Captain Yoo and Mo Yeon.

Doctor Song once again try to hit on her again, Ja-Ae shot him down saying that it is torture and he gets upset and said make a mess make a mess and starts to knock over boxes. Being all childish haha...the actor is quite cute his done theater mostly but has been popping into television recently. If I recall he was in Mi Saeng.

Back at the red jeep, Daniel is busy trying to fix the car, while Ye Hwa is holding onto the broken door and watching him. She complains how he should just be a doctor instead of fixing the car. That she find him more sexy holding a surgical knife and he said that is only Asians that say that. Daniel comment that in America the sexy figure is the one that holds a wrench and is a mechanic. Ye Hwa states he is such a naughty man.

Starting the car the car turns on and Ye Hwa is amazed he then ask for the door and she struggles to bring it to Daniel. Inside the medic cube both Doctor Song and Chi Hoon are playing with the new communication device playing like they are in the army. Ja-ae comes over and hits Doctor Song whipping out the walkies talkies and said clear.

This is all going on Captain Yoo is listening to the voice son the walkies talkie and open the drawer to seeing the rock. He sits down and look at it and listen to Mo Yeon start to sing over the communication device.

Next scene is Captain going to the mine field area watching and then to the next scene where the troops are putting together a dinner as a going away party for the Captain. Mo Yeon get shocked when she is told by Snoopy about this. Upset she is walking to an rocky off crop place and turn on the walkies talkies and switch to channel 3. She was going to call for Shi Jin, but instead start to insult him on the device without pressing the button. When Shi Jin immediately radio to ask if anyone seen where she is...

She pick up and radio in and Shi Jin asked her why she is spying on the military radio channel and if she is a spy. Shi Jin finds her and they are talking to one another and he said he tried to tell her but she avoided him the whole time. I want to say brace yourself girls because in this scene Shi Jin wants to clarify their relationship. He asked her about the kiss and immediately she tries to avoid the topic.

Shi Jin asked if he should apologize or confess his love to her. A wonderful line but at the same time it makes you wonder he is not going out there to confess his life and still playing it safe.
