Medical Return

147. Successful life. Looking to the end (5)

Jinhyun had such busy days.

The glowing hours of success passed, and he got older as well.

Late in the thirties.

A few years later, looking at Forty, he was relaxing in Central Park near St. Joseph's Hospital after an emergency liver transplant to soothe his tired body.

‘I have some time until the next surgery. ’

Central Park, Manhattan's Grand Park, also had a lot of people relaxing.

Seeing young men and women in their twenties holding hands and making love on the bench, he thought,

‘Time is fast. ’

I think I was that young yesterday, but I'm already in the late thirties.

"You're living well, aren't you? ’

He looks up at the sky.

It came to mind when I first made the regression.

I said I'd succeed, and I lived with it.

And now, more than twenty years later, the goal of life has been achieved.

Monetary success, social success, loving wife, golden son.

Well, there was nothing short of one.

But it was when I saw the clouds flowing like that.

I heard an unexpected voice behind my back.

“Mr. Jin-hyun Kim? ”

Calm Korean.

She turned her head in astonishment and looked at herself with her eyes open.

It was Lee Yeon-hee!

Why is she here?

“Oh, I thought the back looked similar... It's been a long time. How are you?”

“Oh, yes. What's going on here? ”

She was a nurse at a large hospital.

Of course, this is information from a few years ago, and I don't know what I'm doing right now.

You're not coming to America anyway. Why?

“I'm here for the sightseeing. It's holiday season.”

“Ah……. ”

It's a lightweight outfit that's unique to travellers.

Central Park seemed to be a key course for NYC tourists.

“Can I sit next to you for a second? I also met him like this. ”

Connection.

She may have said it without much thought, but it was a lucky word.

The relationship that was wife in my previous life is now completely staggered.

Well, that would be a good thing.

“Yes, sit down. ”

“Thank you. It's nice to see New York. ”

Yeon-hee's words smiled.

“I like Seoul better. ”

“I think so. But I think it's good for sightseeing. Shopping is much cheaper. ”

“Yes.”

Yeon-hee asked.

“How are you? ”

“I was fine. How are you?”

“It's just like me. ”

Something awkward ended the conversation.

Yeon-hee glanced at the view of Central Park as to what she was thinking.

Jinhyun opened his mouth because he was uncomfortable with the silence.

“Where's the group? ”

“I came alone. ”

At the end of the day, Jinhyun shut his mouth again.

A woman in her mid-thirties travels alone. It was not unusual, but it meant one thing.

Yeon-hee replied as he thought.

“I'm alone. ”

“Ah... yes. ”

It was a surprise.

Even if he and anomalous people had a couple of dating failures, men would have lined up to take her. It's not a bad home or job.

It was actually very popular.

“I'm just living for a patient. ”

“Yes.”

Jinhyun did not ask in more detail why.

It's a very apologetic question, and it's not close enough to ask.

“Did you hear that story? ”

A voice that seems to pass.

“What story? ”

“Mr. Sangmin's story. ”

“ ……! ”

Jinhyun's face hardened.

It is the name of the man who has been entangled with the greatest evil for more than twenty years after the regression.

“I didn't hear it. ”

I wasn't interested when I said it exactly.

What's so important about this guy who's serving an indefinite sentence and paying for his crimes?

She had a bitter expression.

“I see. ”

“Have you ever met an idealist? ”

“Sometimes... I really go to see her sometimes. ”

That was also a surprising story.

I can't believe she went to see an anomaly sometimes. At the end of the day, you were so hard on yourself.

She said with a smile.

“I just really go sometimes. It's not like you have any heart left. ”

“ ……. ”

“I got out of Sangmin's prison anyway. ”

“ ……?! ”

Jinhyun was surprised.

You're out of prison? You're committing such a crime?

But Yeon-hee didn't mean it like that.

“The schizophrenia is so severe that I can't stay in prison. I'm being transferred to a closed mental hospital. ”

“ ……. ”

Jinhyun didn't answer. Yeon-hee also said no more.

With silence the wind passed between them.

After a while, Yeon-hee looked at the clock and stood up.

“Because of the bus time to Boston, I think I should go. ”

“Oh, yes. Have a good trip.”

“Thank you.”

Then she turns her back and walks towards the metro.

It was as much a breakup as a meeting. Like him and her last connections.

“ ……. ”

Jinhyun also got up and went to the hospital.

And he did the next surgery, as he always did.

Nothing was different than usual.

Not at all.

* * *

Since then, time has passed again.

The study of the Tenofovirus treatment was fortunately a great success.

Haines' antiviral agent inhibited the in vivo proliferation of the virus in infected people, although it did not prevent infection with the Tenofovirus, and it was shown to be a dramatic reduction in lethality.

The mortality rate has been reduced by 30% to 2%.

Of course, it is also 2% higher.

However, 30% and 2% were the difference between heaven and earth.

A few years later, the Tenofovirus acquired a mutation that caused a pandemic, but did not cause the same catastrophic damage as the previous life of Jinyeon.

Thanks to Jinhyun's research, everyone in the medical community around the world has made a difference.

And it wasn't just the medical community.

He also received the U.S. Presidential Medal and was awarded the Sasakawa Health Prize by the World Health Organization (WHO).

“Your achievements have saved Africa. ”

The Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO) thanked Jinhyun in person, and many organizations and people around the world made their contributions.

The Nobel Foundation also took note of the progress made.

In his past life, Dr. Wesley of Harvard became a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Physiology, but it is of course a better achievement to discover a cure than simply to discover a virus.

Both Dr. Wesley and Jinhyun jointly became the nominees for the Nobel Prize in Physiology, and many life-saving achievements, not just academic achievements, so people thought they would win the Nobel Prize shortly.

Such a successful life flowed.

* * *

It is said that the time of life is like a resting scroll.

As you age, it means that flowing faster is like the disappearance of a paper scroll.

The age of Jin Hyeon has already reached forty years.

As a medical practitioner, Jin Hyun and Hye Mi decided to go to Korea.

“No, Dr. Kim? Back to Korea? What the hell is that supposed to mean? ”

The story of Jinhyun, their prouder, returning to South Korea prompted everyone in St. Joseph's to jump.

“What have we done to frighten you? ”

“Do you not have enough salary? Do whatever you say. I'll hear it all!”

Colleagues, surgeons, hospital heads, directors... everyone rushed and stopped him.

But Jinhyun shook his head with a sorry face.

“Sorry, this has already been decided. ”

“Ha, Dr. Kim... It's too bad. ”

After more than a decade of work, David now sighs with regret.

Jinhyun also regretted leaving St. Joseph as a second home, but did not overturn his decision.

‘It's time to go back. ’

Otherwise, the movers who had been the chairman of the former chairman's post were continuing to send love calls.

Please come and take over the one-on-one hospital.

However, it was not for that reason that I decided to return.

The biggest reason is because of my parents.

However, the age of the parents was close to seven years beyond the glorious armor.

At the end of last year, I can't forget their faces as white-haired old men.

“Yeah, I'm doing great. You need to go and be careful. My grandson goes to school well. ”

I don't know why my parents kept looking at me until my son and grandson were gone.

Parents did not say that Jinhyun would care, but they noticed that their son was longing for him as he got older.

Why not?

I can't help but miss my son and grandson who are happy with his success.

‘Success has already been done. ’

Of course, it was a shame to leave a shining position in the United States and go to Korea, but I wanted to do so before it was later.

"I can't go to Korea to do medical research or practice. ’

So Jinhyun decided to come back to Korea.

I was greatly delighted by the news that the chairman of the large group of gun movers

“Come quickly, quickly! We've already made room! ”

According to his long-standing wishes, Jinhyun decided to take over the Great Hospital.

‘I can't believe I'm the director of the Great Hospital. What a strange world. ’

It reminded me of a long time ago, which had already been over a decade ago.

I was intertwined with Lee Jong-myung, the director at the time.

Everyone who was in a relationship in Korea welcomed his return. In particular, the joy of Suwon Steel was great.

“Come quickly, Dr. Kim! You have to get me a drink! ”

Steel Min Steel, who served as the principal of the Great Hospital for many years, enjoyed a fully retired, Jewish life. The scalpel was put out of hand, but still corrected.

And I organized my life in the United States, right before I left for Korea.

Jinhyun looked at his classroom.

‘You've been living here for over a decade. ’

It was years of sobriety.

Still, I felt sorry to hear that I was leaving.

‘I can't help it. ’

Jinhyun shook his head and cleared the rest of the baggage.

I sent all my important luggage, but I had quite a few things left to clean up over the last 10 years.

You can ask someone else to clean it up, but is it because it's the room they buried in their hands?

I wanted to do it myself.

But it was a late night.

Pinch.

Careful visits were made to the faculty room.

Turning his head, David looked at himself with a surprised expression.

“Ah... there you are, Dr. Kim. ”

“Yes, I was organizing. What's going on?”

David scratches his head.

“I'm just sorry. I can't believe you're leaving like this.”

Jin Hyeon smiled at the words.

Since his first visit to St. Joseph, David has treated himself with great kindness. A very grateful person.

Jinhyun shook his hand and asked for a handshake.

“I will come often. ”

“Really?”

“Yes, I'll come to you every time. No bother at the time? ”

David shook his head.

“It's annoying. It's a visit from our St. Joseph legend, Miracle Kim. ”

Miracle Kim.

It's a disgraceful nickname to listen to for 10 years.

David said with his hands facing each other.

“Dr. Kim, I'll tell you because I'm leaving. ”

“Yes.”

“I admired you. Even though I'm much younger than I am. I've learned so much. ”
