Chemistry

Jungwoo, who was walking down from Apgujeong Station and looking at his cell phone, arrived in front of a building.

Although not the size of A hospital, the clinic with the appearance of a fairly large hospital had a ‘cold in mind, the best way to deal with the breakup of dreams’ sign in front of it.

I looked at the picture in the billboard as I passed the entrance.

Is that Prelate Dr. Moon? ’

I was a little nervous on the face of the sensible Career Woman who appeared to be in the mid-30s. He went out looking enough to put a picture of the front, but somewhere he felt a bit like Dr. Moon. It's just that I'm wearing glasses. It feels so cold.

‘It's a little scary to be judgmental to my personality. ’

Through a clean corridor lined with pastel stones, Jung stands in front of the receptacle.

“I made a reservation. Limited Woo. ”

After saying his name and showing him his ID, I was immediately instructed to go to office number 1. The sleeping clinic was very quiet without being loud or cluttered like a hospital.

Yawning in the lobby.

Jungwoo was immersed in the energy, so he took a careful step and approached the clinic at the end of the hall. As soon as I opened the door, the ledger turned his head in the sign labeled ‘Seongmeena’.

“Welcome. ”

A fresh voice.

“Would you like to sit in front? ”

As Jungwoo sat face to face, the principal checked the booking information on the small monitor.

“Mr. Jungwoo. Your first visit today. ”

Then the Prelate's eyes widened.

“That's right. Cha Eun came to introduce you, right? ”

“Oh, yes. ”

“First of all.”

The Prelate slowly looked at Jungwoo, clasped his hands and chins.

“It's been a long time since Chae Eun personally asked for this. Are you two together? ”

“· · No · Just a coworker. ”

“Or maybe I was just being rude. ”

I felt a bright energy in the voice of the principal who smiled and apologized. As she tapped and manipulated the keyboard, a diagnostic tag was posted on the monitor that turned to Jungwoo called the 'Sleep Questionnaire’.

“It's a choice if you press it with your hand. As you write it, listen to it. ”

Jung looked at the screen.

[It takes more than 30 minutes to sleep after you lie down in bed.]

[0. Not at all · · · · · · 4. Every day.]

I was choosing one by one, and the principal of the castle spoke.

“The diagnostic process will be comprehensive. especially when it comes to information related to sleep. Relax and relax. ”

“I don't think I'll be relaxed when I hear the headmaster's question. ”

“I did that on purpose. ”

Principal Sung saw a mysterious friendship.

“Most sleepnessesss are defensive. A depressed patient says," Wow, you haven't slept in days? Are you afraid to go to bed? "You're just stressed when you say things like that. ”

“Is that so?"

“Ouch, how many days have you been awake? ”

It wasn't a sarcastic tone, but it didn't feel comforting, so Jung nodded.

“Aside from identifying the exact cause and treatment, there is not a single pill of sleeping pills. Well, here's the thing. In that sense. ”

When Jungwoo finished completing the questionnaire, the principal said in a voice full of cheerfulness.

“Go to sleep. Bedroom four, second floor. We'll talk more tomorrow. ”

The words of the Head of the Castle like something is drying up.

Jung had a hunch here that the sign said [MD/neuropsychiatrist] in the original dog. Dr. Moon has a different personality, but he's a tricky specialist.

Jungwoo, who came up on the second floor, wandered around the "Sleep Lab" area looking for room 4. Almost every room has its lights out, and from the room with the eerie door at the end, a fire is leaking out.

VIP lab. Looks like someone's inside.

‘This is Cheongdam-dong, so you must be the higher-ups. ’

I was surprised that the interior was more luxurious than I expected to open the door to Bedroom 4. If your room is an inn, this is a hotel. Maybe the VIP room next door is the penthouse.

I sat on the fluffy bed for a moment, and the door opened.

“I'm a sleeper knight.”

The clinic staff came in. The man with his pajamas and toiletries said he'll be back shortly and asked you to prepare well.

After I changed into my pajamas and finished brushing my teeth and washing in the bathroom outside, an employee came in with an EEG machine.

When I put sensors on my head, face and legs and lay on the bed, the staff said,

“Before going to sleep, I'm going to examine the activated EEG and put out the fire. ”

“What if I can't sleep? ”

“The Plumbers' test is not to see how well you sleep, it's to see what's wrong with your sleep. ”

Hearing this made Jung feel better.

‘I think I'll sleep better because it looks more comfortable than home. ’

After a while, the room lights out.

* * *

In a spacious room with a warm glow with a big skylight.

He opened his eyes slightly to confirm it was morning and covered his face with a pillow with a groan.

Twist, twist, twist. I was enjoying the feeling of a warm duvet and looking like I was fighting the urge not to wake up.

“Oh, my.”

Yoon Lee Seol turned his head to a middle-aged woman in a white robe sitting next to the table.

“Prelate?”

“Merry Christmas. ”

“How long have you been here? ”

“Ten minutes ago. ”

“I slept crazy. I didn't know you were coming. ”

Yoon Iseul sat on the bed with her palms on her yawning mouth.

The Prelate Seongmin looked at Yoon Iseol like that.

This patient, who was visiting the clinic for three weeks, was pretending to sleep deeply because he was sensitive to the doctor, keeping his eyes open and his mind awake, as if he had made a commitment to stay positive even today.

She began to interpret the sleep test graph that flowed on the monitor exactly as it did.

“Time to sleep is 12: 00. I wake up at 2: 00 and I haven't slept for 30 minutes, and then most of the time I sleep shallow. I'm in a trance right now. 10 minutes before waking up. ”

Yoon Lee Seol stretched out his tongue.

“It's like a ghost whenever I hear it. But in total, I slept for four hours. ”

He glanced at Yoon Iseol with an admirable look and gently removed the sensor on her forehead.

“We can put it off till the afternoon for the morning exam, so have breakfast and get some sleep. ”

“I'm fine.”

“When is Seul not okay? ”

When Yoon Iseol thought of Sung-mina's question, he replied.

“When the melody doesn't come to mind? ”

“And?”

“When the melody comes to mind stinks? ”

“I like Lee Seol's songs, but they don't suck. ”

“I picked and picked. Oh, that's me, right? The pains of the creator.”

“He came around a lot and became a doctor. ”

Hey, Yoon Iseol smiled and said that she pulled all the sensors from his face.

“Are you going to start treatment right after the diagnosis today? ”

“Treatment?”

“You can't sleep for four hours forever. ”

“The Prelate doesn't know. Sleep is a basic option for celebrities. ”

Yoon Lee Seol covered his mouth with his hands and whispered small.

“I hate to break it to you, but I'm busy with that crowd. ”

“I know, it's popular. ”

This flower girl was known in the Korean yoga world as a truly talented genius musician.

The official condition of her symptoms, which is loved by many in her early twenties, is' early onset of persistent depression. 'However, I deny it and therefore suffer from sleep disorders.

It's not that serious yet. However, there was no guarantee that if we evolved to Melancholia, which is the disease of geniuses, we would not make extreme choices.

In the case of Yoon Yi Seol, it has a natural sensitivity that goes beyond common sense.

Living a life for fans and not being selfish for a moment, giving up happiness for yourself. This was also a problem that arose because it was so kind and compassionate.

That's why I felt attached to this patient and wanted to help him as much as possible.

“Let's talk after breakfast. ”

“I'll go wash up, then. ”

Yoon Seul walks to the door with a towel.

When I heard the irritating door opening while looking at the sleep graph again, I suddenly thumped and lifted my head.

Yoon Lee Seol was leaning against the wall in a frenzied expression.

“What's the matter? ”

“Bar, Outside · ·”

“Let's talk calmly. ”

“He's out there. ”

Seong-Mina asked because there was only one person who could wander around the sleeping inspection area at this time.

“Mr. Jungwoo? ”

On Yoon Yi Seol's excited look, I caught the emotional change that I hadn't seen in three weeks and asked.

“Do you know him? Why don't you go say hello? ”

“How can I do that? You look like this.”

“Like?”

“Today's my ugly day. I don't have Cody or makeup. ”

She laughed. Despite her pajamas, she was charming and pretty enough to look at. But Yoon Yi Seol didn't have enough.

“And then I said something stupid. I didn't want you to know that. Why did I do that? ”

I opened the door and glanced at Yoon Seol who was looking at the outside like a spy.

As a practitioner of psychiatry, the hardest part about treating a patient is finding the first clue to unlock the tangled thread in the mind. If you pull the thread quickly, it becomes more tangled, and if you uncover it one by one and get buried in a bunch, you'll never see the clue again.

Let's find out. ’

Seongmina turned her eyes to the hat and mask that Yoon Lee Seol wore last night.

“Mr. Lee Seol. We'll have to run tests later. ”

“Ho, does he do that, too? ”

“Of course. I'm here for insomnia, just like Mr. Lee. ”

“Ahh · · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

That someone who is interested has a similar experience. Perhaps there is a hint that this genius musician will cure a cold in his mind.

“Behavioral tests?”

Jungwoo tilted his head as he saw a smartwatch like the one the employee fills on his wrist.

“We will conduct cognitive behavioral tests with a baseline physical exam according to the list here until lunch. · · · · Through activities that put some weight on your body, or cause mental stress or interest. ”

Looking at the list, Jungwoo confirmed that it is a comprehensive sleep screening method similar to a comprehensive health examination.

“That's thorough. ”

“We have to be sure for you. There are only eight of you today, so you'll have plenty of time to wait. After lunch, the Prelate will tell you about your findings. ”

The staff left, Jungwoo stood up.

I walked out of the bedroom and went up to the third floor, and suddenly the dinner texted to see if he was doing well.

[Date Course Selected?]

[Working. I'll see you at lunch.]

[Crying irritably, go and not tickle the girl as you normally would.]

[Are you kidding me? I can't believe I'm upset!]

I felt irritated by the text, so I smiled.

I went up to the third floor and in front of the Body Composition Measurement Room on List 1, and there was a person who was there first.

She was a woman wearing a mask and pressed into a baseball cap, and she was continuing to lean toward the interior of the body ingredient measurement room.

The number of the recorder in Jungwoo is 8. The woman's number on her wrist was seven. Jung said hello to Jung because he thought he would stay with us.

“Hello."

As soon as I speak, the startled woman's movements harden. "Did I do something wrong? ’I scratched my chin and sat on a chair next to the hall.

‘You must have a cold. ’

Waiting without any other meaning to wear a mask indoors, the woman's reaction was a little strange. I'm drooling.

Did you bury something? ’

I tucked away the gown from the clinic and saw the woman again. She rubs her long hair, shrugged under her shoulders, nervously.

"Huh?

I just focused on her for a moment, but the tip of her head suddenly expanded and turned into the micro world. I immediately caught Jungwoo's attention because I had never seen a petal-shaped molecule spreading from her hair into the air.

Meanwhile, the door of the measurement room was opened.

“Come in seven times. ”

The woman disappears into the door like the wind. The wind pushed the aromatic molecules in and touched the tip of the Jungwoo's nose. This was the smell of shampoo that Jungwoo used in the washroom in front of the bedroom.

‘No way · · · · · · · · · VIP? ’

It was a weed that made me curious as to why people who live in such a large and good place are suffering from insomnia.

VIP She continues to be tested one step ahead of Jungwoo.

You put electricity on your fingers, you stimulate them, and where you do the stress test, you scream, and as soon as you're done, you're gone.

Walking two kilometers away from the treadmill, he disappears in an instant without following his staff's instructions.

I had to scratch my head to avoid myself.

What's wrong with him? Is it just the higher-ups who don't want to face the common man? ’

This room was a place to measure the level of your brain waves when you were interested. The inspection method was simple, but it was a game of hook throwing, with a simple sensor and a chair.

A VIP who had already failed four times and was considerably struggling with the last one in her hand, she swung and failed as soon as Jungwoo entered and grabbed her fist with resilience as if it were a pity.

“I'll do it again in a little while. The third one will be a success. ”

It looks like I've already tried many times. She is standing far behind the chair, unable to move quickly from this laboratory.

“Excuse me.”

I felt quite young, even though it was only skin that was exposed to the side of the mask as I moved closer.

Soon Jungwoo put a measuring instrument on his head and held the loop in his hand.

A wooden pole situated 2 meters away. A plastic loop the size of a palm of your hand.

Jung comfortably threw it because he was confident that he could succeed this much because it was a children's toy level.

Ugh.

One fails, and the second fails in a row.

‘It's not as easy as I thought. ’

Jungwoo completely focused and threw a third. A ring that flies into the air and bounces off the rod.

“Calm down, you only need one measurement to be successful. You need a change in the brainwaves at the moment of success. ”

When the employee said this, he even failed the fourth time because he was more shaken. The situation that will add itself once more.

“That's too bad. You must have been nervous. ”

I could feel the VIP standing behind my back, smiling behind my mouth.

‘Ew, that's embarrassing. ’

Jung thought it shouldn't be like this, so he took a deep breath and called them for a long time.

Gather round, gather round! ’

You collect dust stars in your right hand and plant them in a loop. His left hand was extended and pointed toward the trunk of the tree. I gathered all the dust stars that were wandering freely around the wand. As soon as I saw that the rod was instantly charged towards [+], I swiped the charged plastic loop [-].

The loop that was flying along the curve was sucked into the rod like a magnet. It appeared to be a success that seemed to ignore the laws of gravity, but the staff were not very conscious because they were looking at the EEG.

‘That's it. I protected my pride. Well Done.'

Jung, who scattered the dust stars of both hands, smiled satisfactorily at the palms of his hands. Clearly, they are better gathered and dispersed than before.

“Brain waves are a little unusual right now. There's more theta waves. ”

Jungwoo asked what the employee said.

“Really? What difference does it make? ”

“I don't know if this is a high-density electroencephalogram. Just get the Prelate's opinion. ”

Jungwoo takes off his utensil and retreats. The VIP sits on the road chair and takes off her hat. I was amazed at the sheen of my hair as if it were in an advertisement. Since she was a rich girl, she seemed to have taken care of it thoroughly.

However, the attempt went on as if it had failed again. The employee said halfway through the third loop.

“It's not a mandatory test, so I'm just going to do it this time. ”

VIP The feeling of a slight tingling of her shoulders was conveyed around her.

‘You're a poor athlete. ’

Jungwoo thought for a moment. If we don't succeed, there's no point in running tests. I don't think it's a bad idea to practice dusting and help.

Jungwoo, who was standing behind, reached out his hands. Draws as much dust as possible from a distance to focus on a specific area. The principle was the same as before.

A fourth loop flies toward the rod, failing very close and falling to the floor.

‘It's not easy. ’

Fifth loop.

‘Send it here, except there. ’

At a distance of about 3 meters, each group of dust moved to its place.

Finger. chuck.

Just as the two textiles of static electricity are attached to each other, the hook is attached to the rod.

“Wow!"

Her favorite VIP with a gleaming hand. I smiled because I was so fond of nothing for a rich girl.

After an hour-long examination, a 10-minute break came.

Jungwoo was sitting on a bench in the hallway on the third floor drinking water. Then I cut off my ear to the sound of it flowing through the vent above my head.

Because the clinic is so quiet, the sound of singing snorts is faint as you wash your hands. From what I heard, the melody was very ripe in my ears.

‘This is... ’

Sweet humming.

How can I forget the charming sound that shocked my ears not long ago?

The sound soon disappeared. Jungwoo walked out of the women's bathroom at the end of the vent and cast his gaze at the back of the woman who was disappearing to the other side of the Bumblebuck corridor. She is just the time to carry the guitar in that body type.

“Yoon Yi Seol? ”

Her walking VIP stops.
