Chemistry

Song Bo-young, who was sitting on the couch facing Kim Bona, repeatedly held her fist in the voice of a 6-year-old.

“You're the same age as Dr. Lim Woo? ”

“Huh."

“Wow, that didn't look like it. ”

Even though I generally admire it.

“The intensity of big businesses on average is high. I saw you drinking a lot at the time. Do you know that the more you get hit by a job, the more you come in proportion to your aging speeds? When a cute and adorable style that looks like you're in your early 20s, your book value drops. ”

“Now, the book value? ”

The use of puncturing words makes the tongue stand out.

“If you don't have a promotion, you can also show off your attractiveness as a woman by adding exercise and makeup skills at that time, and the statistics that you succeed in marriage are……. ”

I don't know where I got the information, but the more credible I felt, the more shocked I was.

“Bonaya.”

Song Bo-young shakes her head, wakes up and calmly says.

“That's all you care about for me, right? Thank you."

The conversation went beyond the topic of excellence as an adult. I was looking at Kim Bona, hoping that she would shut up. I was looking at her with very curious eyes.

Song Bo-young sighed deeply.

“... What do you want to know? ”

“Does Teacher Lim Woo care a lot about Miss Song Bo-young? ”

“Well, maybe that's the way it is. ”

“You like it.”

Song Bo-young's face turned red.

“Uh, how do you know? ”

“Teacher Lim Wu said. ”

“What? Jungwoo even said that to you? ”

At this moment, Song Bo-young's voice, which said that she was preparing to get together, hit Song Bo-young's head. Song Bo-young, who didn't know what to do after her heart started beating, was furious when the door to the internal laboratory opened.

“What's wrong, Bo-young? ”

“I see……. ”

“Oh, my God. Bona got you pretty bad. I told you to be strong. ”

When Jungwoo came to comfort her, Song Bo-young couldn't say anything and avoided her gaze. The following western population quietly walked to the entrance of the room.

“Population. If you make me anything else, bring it to me. It's dangerous to just throw it away. ”

“Thank you."

“Oh, and this... ”

The western population bowed their heads when Duk asked them to eat something delicious until dinner with the tea.

Bloop.

After he left, Song Bo-young came to the side.

“How nice is your brother? ”

“Yes, and I think about you deeply. ”

“This professor asked me when I was going to do a follow-up study with Mr. Seo Jung-gu. ”

“Please say no. There's no reason to call them separately. ”

“Why?”

Jungwoo shook the plastic canister harvesting the Western population's genes.

“That's enough for your brother. ”

“You're going to compare his genes? Wouldn't that be more difficult? The date of dispatch is now three days away. ”

“Is it hard for you to work? I'm doing the best I can. ”

Jungwoo looked at Kim Bona and said, "Right? ’and sought agreement.

“You don't want to see me again? ”

“Well, you don't. Let's just focus on tomorrow's meadow interview, and then focus on the data to get to Dr. Moon. ”

During the conversation, a text was sent to Jungwoo's cell phone. Jungwoo looked back at Kim Bona.

“Uncle's coming soon. ”

“Is it stuck?”

“You don't say that. Ask him yourself later. Be gentle. ”

Jungwoo added the word ‘please’ to his mind.

9: 00 a.m. Friday.

Jung, who entered Conrad's hotel lobby in a long time, walked inside a very familiar pretext and entered a three-story Dynasty Hall with a symposium.

There was a situation board at the entrance titled "Genius Gene." Checking the program sequence, there was a speech meeting following the presentation of the professor of the Ministry of Life Sciences.

You asked me to help you in the first place. ’

I was about to send in an invitation, but I saw a familiar face on the inside.

“Mi-hee? ”

Seo Mi-hee, a friend of Song Bo-young and the managing director of the hotel, was also surprised to see Jungwoo.

“I see Jungwoo here. Seoul University Symposium?”

“Yes.”

“And Bo-young?”

“The company is organizing the data. ”

Seo Mi-hee, who raised her hand to give the lighting instructions, looked back at Jungwoo.

“I heard that Bo-young is working for Jungwoo. ”

“Is that what you said? I'm not working for you, I'm just helping you. That must have been stressful. I see that Mi-hee knows. ”

“Stress. The last time we were together, we were drunk. I want to go to work fast, I like working together, I want to run around and sing... Oh my. ”

Seo Mi-hee muttered.

“Keep it a secret. If Bo-young finds out about this, she'll rip her hair off. ”

“There are a few injections that we already know about. It's not that new. ”

“Even though you only wore underwear? If I hadn't stopped him, he would have stood in front of Jungwoo. ”

Jungwoo coughs with his saliva.

“I'll pretend I didn't hear that. ”

When Jungwoo, who lowered his head, tried to walk inside, Seo Mi-hee said, "Wait.” I came close. She raises her hands on Jungwoo's shoulders to dust and lowers her voice to open her mouth.

“Our Bo-young injection is only about Jungwoo these days. Since it sounds boring, can't you just turn that into a thumb drive? ”

“Yes? That's ……. ”

“Director Seo! The head of the cooking team suggests that he may need to change his lunch dessert. ”

“Oh, okay. I'm coming.”

Seo Mi-hee nodded at the employee's shout and looked at Jungwoo.

“Please, Bo-young is a very lonely girl. Lots of money. You know what this means? ”

Seo Mi-hee disappeared into the wink. Song Bo-young had to kick the tongue out of the offer of her best friend who seemed to be active by herself.

‘By the way, he lives in a very varied way, you know. ’

Jungwoo who moved to find a seat opened his eyes when he saw the two people he met a few days ago in the nearby seat.

“The meadow is your mother. Meadow.”

“Is the doctor here? ”

When she asked how Jungwoo got here, the mother of the meadow said with a smile.

“Professor Lee said he wanted to hear the case of the grasslands at this presentation. ”

“Really? Oh, the grasslands are going to masscom. ”

I suddenly thought of Jungwoo, who only saw the dots on the paper as usual.

“There's a machine that's not as good as the company uses, but it's getting faster. It's a little bigger than a laptop, so you can carry it around. I got it from the buyer's office, so I'll send you the address. Paper, wood, metal plates. It's all available. ”

“Thank you very much for your concern, sir. ”

Jungwoo boldly laughed and omitted the words, "The meadow is the cutest of the three weeks studied."

“Ah, sir. ”

“Yes?”

The meadow rumbles through my bag as if my mother had suddenly come to mind. Then I took out a sketchbook and handed it to Jungwoo.

“This was drawn for you by the meadow. Glad you could make it. ”

“To me?”

Jungwoo sat down after taking it. And then I handed him one.

It's me.

Talking in the lab. It was shaped as a point that gathered to a more elaborate point than the photograph. It was a very lively, classy picture that could be framed separately.

“Wow, meadow. Thank you!”

As Jungwoo lifted his thumb, he looked up at the grasslands that were looking at the drawing. He smiled brightly and looked back, but communication was enough.

In amazement, one more chapter of Jung stopped.

Close-up of the face only. It was because of the peculiarity of the composition of its eyes. The shape of the fine dots reflected on the surface of the eye seemed to only represent the molecular world.

You're telling me that I'm looking at things with molecular vision? No matter how observant... ’

I turned to the next chapter just in case. And there, and then there. There was definitely a molecular structure in his eyes that seemed to be immersed in the molecular world.

‘Yay! The meadow wasn't just any genius. It's creepy.’

Jungwoo turns his eyes to the side for a moment.

The fifteen boys who were able to see were flashing their drawings and showing them to their mothers. I smiled as if it was a sudden touch in the image of Mother who stroked the head of the meadow.

The last time I fought in the whole school. I barely managed to stay awake and study for the 2nd semester finals, but my grades couldn't have been good.

‘Mom baked pork belly for me that day. ’

The sale of love was nothing special. Hong Ji-suk showed once the smile that Mother of the Meadow was making towards herself, wanting to eat more meat than cold, placing tenth place in the back.

He laughed at the fact that it was the only reason he tried to die eight years later, saying that he would somehow become a society.

"Oh my God, I'm such an easy firstborn. ’

Jungwoo thought about himself and reflected on himself three weeks ago, worrying that he had to study three spiritual runaways.

Kim Bona, who admitted to being cool when he asked me if he liked my uncle every time, didn't say anything, but he didn't say anything deeper than anyone else, and Seonggoo, who was sane and emotionally detached. It's a real easy family for someone.

In an hour.

On top of the five panels sitting side by side, there was a discussion in English.

- I hope this technology helps our society. But there is no law that says, if genetic research goes beyond human dignity, it will not become a standardized society in which genetic testing is performed, as in science fiction.

- I agree that if a biological chain reaction is triggered, it will have a significant impact on the entire ecosystem. But who wants to be born with one hand short, one nose crooked, one deformity?

Jung, who was watching the debate, continued to yawn after only the policy stories about genetic research. It was about half an hour ago.

When asked by a general audience, the discussion time for the panel to respond came up.

I have a question for the professor, who is above the Seoul National Institute of Genetic Engineering.

One person holding the wireless microphone stood up.

Earlier, you presented the research and presentation of a child with genius. You found a bunch of intelligence related variants. Is that D4DR-11?

Yes, we are analyzing and linking different unique factors in a total of 3 cases.

Is there any reason to declare such a small sample as definitive?

Even pretending to be sharp from the start was a researcher at the Beijing Genome Institute. He replied calmly.

The analysis attempted by the head of this study was not a way to find out that numerous genes were statistically generated, but a custom analysis to infer the target molecule and validate its associated effects.

It reminds me of a proverb about finding needles in haystacks. Is there anyone in the world who can pinpoint that?

Lee looks at Jungwoo. A small nod nods at the signal, asking if you can tell me.

You can ask her yourself. Sit close.

The eyes of the audience converged on the finger on the platform. Jungwoo took the microphone given to him by the hotel staff and turned to the researcher who asked.

I am the researcher who searched the haystack. Are you related to the Genius Genetic Research paper published by Nature?

Yes.

"Oh, you did.

It was a sentence that Jungwoo looked at the contents of the article with a stutter of memory.

I can see a magnificent plan for you to select only the best based on your IQ test and create a superhuman being. That's what I thought. If you put down the definition of inferiority and superiority so calmly, what's different from the idea of eugenics that race with only good genes is superior? It wasn't just a massacre like the ones that caused the holocaust.

What?

When I mentioned the Nazis aggressively, my opponent's expression cleared.

'D4DR-11’ or whatever you find. It doesn't distinguish precisely what the effects are, it just makes you more observant? The MAOA gene variants we've studied in the cognitive genome team are nonviolent.

AVPR1A mutations are clearly defined as closely related to good faith. You can edit it and apply it in real life.

What would you do if the best children were born that way?

What did you do? With an average IQ of 50,000, there are significant differences in economic productivity, national competitiveness, patent holdings, and economic innovation. Do you think it makes sense for an individual to have a single line of genes in a national study?

Jungwoo scratched his chin for this logic and his gaze stayed on Yoon Meadow.

“Mother, can I see the painting of the meadow for a moment? ”

The mother of the meadow nodded her head and handed the paper to Jungwoo. Jung hears it from the other party, whether he accepts it or not.

You know Yun Meadow, right? The kid from the presentation. He just drew it.

As one camera illuminated the picture, it appeared on a large monitor above the single phase.

It was a picture of a Beijing Genome Institute researcher throwing up heat with a microphone in his hand. Some audiences were amazed at the vivid painting.

You drew well, right? If you look closely here, it's a pimple on the left. And on the lips...

Jungwoo glanced at the painting.

From the food you had in the morning to the red pepper powder.

The embarrassed researcher wipes his mouth with his bare hands.

Above all, this expression. That's how you feel when you open your eyes and lift the white pebble, your tendons burn, your mouth squeezes and your molars snap, right?

What's wrong with your angry face? We have a lot of specimens, a lot of talent to draw.

I'm not asking you to compliment me on a good drawing. Can you shine the camera over here?

Jungwoo highlighted the eyes in the picture. The camera pulls and focuses, and the audience bursts into even more awe than before. It was because there was another picture with only a tiny dot in the eyes.

Our reflection in your eyes. It's in there, too. Doesn't it feel hostile and like a fight? That's how they perceive us and accept us. Meaningful looking for hidden pictures. This was done five minutes ago by the grasslands in 0.1 seconds. Amazing, right?

Nonsense. You didn't bring him here for fraud?

It makes sense. D4DR-11 is a unique factor involved in this cognitive capacity.

The researcher couldn't take his eyes off the drawing on the platform. Jungwoo asked, returning the painting to his mother.

Did you know that some cells in the human body can be in a microchimeric state with slightly different DNA sequences?

You don't know that.

Jung looks at his opponent as if he could see through a molecule.

"Then you also know that you may have genetic mutations.

Me?

In the database, it's probably called 'ABCC11.'

It's a variant that stinks less. How do you know that without a sample?

I have a sensitive nose. Most of those Koreans had them, but you're lucky they didn't have a lot of them. Oh, time.

Jungwoo who saw to look at the watch said.

That's all I have to say. Hundreds of geniuses? I wish I could study it. But I believe that even one of us can do well enough. Even if it's just you.

The discussion was held again after the set time for questions.

- End Session 1 discussion with more than… There will be a second session after lunch, so the presenters should meet 30 minutes in advance.

The researcher at the Beijing Genome Institute who had been shaking his head with little objection all along disappeared as soon as he finished.

You're not going to lunch? You must have a lot of good stuff. ’

Jung looked up at the monolith. Among these, the professor looked down politely. I strode out, stroked the boat full of marketers who gave me snow salutations.

“The discussion was impressive. ”

Then I encountered a twenty-two year old man standing at the door.

“Huh? Why is Seo Jung-gu here...? ”

“I was mentioned in the presentation of the second session. ”

It seemed to be a strange call. Jungwoo nods his head to say goodbye.

“Looks like your brother took the pills. ”

Jungwoo's movements stopped.

“Speak straight. That's what Jung-gu got from me with tricks. ”

“This is what you need when the law can't protect you. ”

“My brother thinks differently. He grew up very well. Be good.”

Seo Jung-gu didn't seem to admit it. Then I looked into Jungwoo's eyes.

“Do you have something to say? ”

“I heard you're not doing any more research on this side. ”

“I'm busy. But don't worry, Dr. Moon is going to keep going. You're a better expert than I am. I don't think I'll be seeing you again, so let's say hello. ”

“Greeting?”

“Forget all the misunderstandings and things that have happened while researching, let's shake hands in that sense. ”

Seo Jung-gu silently looked at Jungwoo who held out his hand.

“KG Chemistry. Are you still going there after four years? ”

“Why do you ask? ”

“Let's say hello then. ”

Seo Jung-gu, who left this note, disappeared into the event.

“What?"

For some reason, I was shivering when I felt like I was going to appear in public in 4 years. That's a thriller genre.

The next day.

Jung, who entered his private laboratory to organize the handover data, was curious to see a fruit basket on his desk.

Did Bo-young buy it for you? ’

I felt too old to say that. I was on one side of Juju Island, and Song Bo-young walked in with a box of open doors and healthy drinks.

“Welcome, sunbae. ”

“Good morning. Heave-ho.”

Song Bo-young placed the box on Jungwoo's desk.

“This is a gift from the Director of Information and Electronics. This fruit is the battery center chief. ”

Jungwoo smiled when he mentioned Kim Sung-bo and Ah-jeong.

“What a surprise. ”

“You want to impress Jungwoo because it's the next dispatch. The last time 70 graduate students came to observe Jungwoo's research, Yoon Donghui Center Director must have been very proud. It's rare for corporate research to attract academic attention. ”

Only two centers remained, through basic materials, materials science, and medicine bios. I felt like I was done with the instructions from the warden to go around the center.

Jungwoo took an apple from the fruit basket and shrugged it. After biting my mouth, I asked Song Bo-young if she would eat with her eyes.

“Never mind. I love this side with lots of caffeine. ”

Song Bo-young opened the health drink and drank it as it was.

“Sunbae, the schedule for the next week is empty, right? ”

“Yes, I don't have any other instructions. ”

“Then you stay in study one. See you when Dr. Moon gets back. ”

“What about Jungwoo? ”

“I have some personal work to do. ”

Song Bo-young looked curious, but Jung smiled gladly.

Jung, who found Dr. Heaven's laboratory, approached the secret vault in the cabinet. There were dozens of sealed containers situated inside the door of the bulky open vault with opaque protein polymers of varying concentrations.

This was by taking ‘AF-12’ and ‘AF-5’ to reanalyze and culture the modified Jungwoo self genes.

‘Let's hold still.'

Five containers with a similar protein structure were taken out from Kim Bona, Yoon Meadow, and Seo Jung-gu.

‘I don't have any information, so I have to take it backwards. ’

A series of processes for studying the specific genes of those who think and think in other ways, and inferring the effects of pluripotents. I haven't done anything like this until now.

It was time to spend comparing the activity of genes in the molecular world.

It's the same thing. ’

The same genetic code was seen between the molecular structure of container 8 and the specific factors that were reanalyzed. Twice, I checked again three times.

"Really?"

A single glance flashes across the ground in a seemingly headless survey.

Once we have the overall structure of the pluripotent factor, it is possible to make it. Even after the contract ends and everything disappears, if you make something that is equivalent to ’AF-12’, you can continue to be a chemist.

‘All thanks to those tough kids. Just buy me some food... No. It's a lot to take in, but I'm the only one who gets involved in three things. Let's think about it next year. ’

Jungwoo sings a nostril and puts a new label on the courage. And I picked up a pen.

A clue from three geeky geniuses.

I thought about the code name and wrote it down.

[BG-1]

Beautiful. Beautiful, excellent, unparalleled.

Genius. Genius. Genius. Talent. Special talent.

I felt like it would fit in the name of the factor that should be filled out in the future.

-----

code: BG-1

case: restriction woo sample protein polymer

research: (Genetic Code analysis is currently in progress.)
