In the last scene of Hospital Playlist 2 episode 2, a tired Song-hwa made her way to the cafeteria to grab a cup of coffee before she heads to Sokcho. Unfortunately, the cafeteria is closed. Song-hwa forfeit the idea of coffee and heads to the basement to leave the city. To her surprise, there were two cups of coffee resting on her car with a special note on each cup.
Although the episode did not reveal the person behind the sweet gesture, fans presumed it was Lee Ik-jun (Jo Jung-suk). While some attributed their conclusion to his bond with Song-hwa, there were a few who also noted that the handwriting on the cups is similar to his writing.
