Synopsis

Eijiro Saito (Tsumabuki Satoshi) is a graduate of the prestigious Eidai Medical School and is sent to Eidai Hospital as a trainee doctor. There, under the supervision of Dr. Shiratori (Miura Tomokazu) at the surgery department, Eijiro trains hard with Dekune (Kato Koji) and Munakata (Matsuo Masatoshi). But all they seem to do is take care of the menial work. They work on average 16 hours a day for 38,000Y per month. It's so bad that they have to do part-time work at other hospitals just to make ends meet.

Eijiro picks Seido Hospital, run by Dr. Hattori (Ogata Ken), for his part-time job. The surgery is like a battleground. Eijiro is very impressed by his senior Dr. Ushida (Sugimoto Tetta) and the nurse Kaori (Suzuki Kyoka). But one night, when he is on duty, Eijiro runs from the surgery leaving a badly injured patient behind. --TBS
