Characters
- Teru is a surgeon at Yasuda Memorial Hospital. When he was young, he was the only survivor who was saved in a plane crash but his father Mahigashi Kousuke, who was a famous surgeon called “GodHand”, died. He has handprint bruises on his chest from the chest massage that his father had performed on him right after the accident. Because he has an honest and earnest personality, he is loved by many people, regardless of whether they are hospital staff or patients. He is slow when it comes to love and flustered by those around him.
