The Returning Doctor Wanted to Live Quietly - Chapter 330



Only Noblemtl

Episode 330. Giving orders (12)

People remain children even when they are old, and they remain children even when they are sick.

Just like Han Dong-soo.

[This kid! Why isn’t he answering!]

[Oh my! I’m dying!]

[Hey hey!!]

A torrent of texts.

Finally, Jinhyuk called.

“Yes, Professor. I didn’t do it on purpose… … .”

[Oh, okay. Save your time. I’ll give a lecture too.]

“ah…….”

[ah?]

“No. Then from 4:30 to 5:00. I’ll take 30 minutes off.”

Dduk.

Jinhyuk hung up the phone and checked the timetable.

A patched up situation due to Professor Baek’s absence.

Since we unknowingly brought the lunch hour forward, there was ample time for Han Dong-soo to step forward as a speaker.

Of course, it is true that I was worried about him coming forward as a speaker.

It was like that even when I told you how difficult internal medicine is right now.

It was Han Dong-soo who had been harassing himself by asking why he was causing such trouble and had made remarks and actions that were close to team killing.

But it’s already spilt milk.

Jinhyeok turned his head towards Jang Hyukjun.

“Let’s change the timetable a bit.”

“What is that all of a sudden?”

“That’s why… … .”

“A professor suddenly came in?”

“yes.”

“Ugh. Why is Professor Han like this? No, more than that, why do I only show such a weak side to Professor Han?”

“Because you’re sick.”

Jinhyeok, who had lightly ignored Jang Hyukjun, looked at Jeong Seongwook this time.

As he nodded, the timetable was immediately corrected.

Of course, that wasn’t the end.

I even checked the surgical schedule of the professor assigned to the afternoon lecture once again.

I don’t want to get a flat tire again.

but.

“Huh? Professor Jeong, your surgery schedule has been set.”

“Really?”

“Yes, I think it’s a reply.”

“Then there needs to be a substitute… … .”

“How can we find a substitute now? Everyone is busy with surgeries.”

“Let’s look for it first.”

We all started operating our laptops right away.

The idea is to check the surgical schedule and try to recruit other surgeons who have open schedules.

but.

“Ugh. There isn’t any.”

“Everyone’s schedule is full.”

“None. None.”

It was impossible to find a professor who didn’t have surgery.

If there was no surgery, there was outpatient treatment.

If there were no outpatients, it would be relatively quiet.

Because that’s how busy a surgeon’s life is.

“I’ve already patched it up once. What should I do now? Can I just cover it up with my words?”

“That’s hard too. I barely managed to beat it earlier.”

“then…….”

“Either the chief leaves. Or Mr. Jang leaves. The story of the True Medical Support Group during the strike. Well, it’s better to talk about something like that… … .”

“Hey hey. Okay. Okay.”

“Ah. The story of the bald head. There’s nothing to say.”

As they both shook their heads, Jinhyuk became lost in thought.

Someone who can come and give a lecture right away without surgery or outpatient treatment.

There was one person who came to mind.

“There is one person.”

“Who is it?”

“No surgeries. No outpatient clinics. A surgeon with lots of meetings.”

“… … ?”

“This is the hospital director.”

“… … !”

Everyone was surprised, but they decided to do it right away.

I know the love of the hospital director, Jinhyuk Lee.

Well, maybe it was possible.

When Jinhyeok took out his cell phone again, Jang Hyukjun shouted.

“Fighting!!”

* * *

That moment.

Oh Ji-ho, the hospital director, was in the middle of a boring meeting.

The budget is this and that.

What equipment do I need?

It was so incredibly boring.

So I have no choice but to think about something else.

‘I’m sick of it, I’m sick of it. Ha.’

But then a call came. And it was from Jinhyuk Lee, whom I love unconditionally.

Oh Ji-ho immediately looked around.

The absent person sitting across from me.

After changing his mind about running, he was on fire.

Well, it’s been like that anyway.

‘That guy is the kind of person who finds fault with everything.’

Again, Oh Ji-ho looked left, right, and left.

The chief surgeon on the left.

Choi Jae-won, who just performed the surgery silently, also didn’t care.

The problem is the operations manager, Woo Yong-man, sitting on the right.

Even if I ran away under the pretense of answering the phone, I was sure I would get caught.

So in the end.

“Hey, what’s going on? What? Is my kid hurt?”

[Excuse me, the hospital director?]

“No, where did the kid get hurt like that? What? Did he get in a fight?”

[I… … . the hospital director?]

“No, you! What did you do without taking care of yourself! Hey! Even your face is torn. What? Right? No, how many times do I have to tell you! If you’re going to get hit, then hit me! Big money! I’m just asking for something like that!”

[I…….]

When Jinhyuk panicked and thought he had dialed the wrong number.

Oh Ji-ho naturally stood up from his seat.

The meeting has already been adjourned for a long time.

He waved his hands.

“Oh, don’t worry about it. Go ahead. Go ahead.”

“Please feel free to talk. I will wait.”

“Ah. I have to go. Okay. Oh, uh. No, you. I told you to send your child to Taekwondo when he was young. What did you do while he was getting beaten at school!”

The nonsense continued for a long time.

Jinhyuk’s voice rang out as he belatedly realized the situation.

[I’m sorry, if this is a difficult situation, I’ll hang up the phone.]

“No, no! Don’t hang up! I said I’m going!”

[… … .]

“Yeah, which hospital? What are you doing! Why don’t you speak up quickly?”

[I’m in the basement lecture hall right now, but Professor Jeong, who was supposed to give a lecture to the polycle (interns), went into surgery in a hurry… … .]

“Ah, okay. I’ll go soon.”

Dduk.

Jiho Oh hung up the phone and muttered to himself with a bewildered expression.

“Oh, right. This. My wife. Big. Big. This is the problem, the problem. I said hit her instead of getting hit. My, right. Go do your own business.”

The conference room I escaped from like that.

Oh Ji-ho, who used to walk briskly, suddenly started running.

Because I could have been caught.

Well, we decided to all have lunch together after the meeting.

I had to listen to what the elders were saying too, but it didn’t matter.

Looking after the juniors.

It was the only pleasure.

The problem is.

“I… … . That’s it.”

Even though he ran towards me in one stride, Lee Jin-hyeok stuttered with a flustered look on his face.

“Huh, why? You’re telling me to be your substitute?”

“Oh, no. That’s. A little. Hmm.”

“Why? What is it?”

“I was going to ask if you could be my substitute. The 3 o’clock lecture got canceled… … .”

“Not now?”

“Yes. Everyone has gone to eat now.”

I’m telling you, you can’t come now.

Oh Ji-ho tapped Jin-hyeok on the shoulder as if to say, “What is that?”

“I thought my kid was hurt. But he’s okay?”

“yes?”

“Well, there is something like that. So, quite by chance… … . Quite by chance, I came here.”

Let’s kiss.

Jeong Seong-wook and Jang Hyuk-jun with blank expressions. And Jin-hyeok nodded at the same time.

A surgeon’s job is to turn hope into reality.

A good surgeon must also be good at lying.

You can’t just tell a cancer patient that he or she will die in three months.

Oh, of course I had to take responsibility for the aftermath.

* * *

In any case, the hospital director is in the highest position.

So, he sits at the head of the table in every meeting.

Right in the center, right in the front.

That was Oh Ji-ho’s reserved seat.

But I saw him crouching in the back seat.

A surgeon who left the field.

Just looking at the young, innocent-looking juniors makes my heart race.

It was clear that my heart was racing as I wondered what kind of person would become my disciple.

Well, I guess he does that because he doesn’t want to stand out to other professors.

After a while, the afternoon briefing session began.

Explain what each department does.

The process of injecting surgical sutures was repeated.

Sometimes I also played videos made with Lee Hyun-ah’s help.

Sometimes, they even recycled footage from ‘Surgeon 24’.

When that lethal dose of surgical mulberry was injected.

Han Dong-soo showed up late.

It was also possible because he was not feeling well and was able to complete his schedule leisurely.

He came out a little earlier than the appointed time and was startled when he found Oh Ji-ho.

“Director?”

“Professor Han? Hmm, big.”

“Why are you here?”

“My child is a little sick.”

“yes?”

“My child got hurt at school.”

“You said you were late, right? Then you should go to the hospital.”

“This is the hospital. Where are you going?”

A tone that tells you not to ask any more questions.

Because they were fighting over Jinhyeok.

The relationship between the two was not good.

Han Dong-soo, who tilted his head twice, was the first to provoke Oh Ji-ho.

“It’s over there.”

“huh?”

“Over there, over there. Our kid. Wow, he’s good at socializing. His shoulders are broad too. He’s grown up very well.”

“What about our child? Our Jinhyuk is a surgeon, a surgeon.”

“The surgery will be over soon.”

“Jinhyuk called me. He asked me to give a lecture. He begged me, desperately, to please do it.”

“You did it to me too?”

“… … .”

Jiho Oh crossed his arms at Dongsu Han’s answer.

The unspoken body language of discomfort.

Han Dong-soo immediately responded by crossing his arms.

While watching other lectures while engaging in a war of nerves like that.

First it was Oh Ji-ho’s turn.

As he stood up from his seat, Han Dong-soo was the first to strike.

“I’m the last one? I’ll show you a live surgery.”

“what?”

“They don’t have any schedules anyway. I heard someone cleared all their schedules.”

“Is that mine?”

“Oh my. Thanks to you, I can show you what we do at CS. Haha.”

A situation where it is clear that something big has been prepared.

Oh Ji-ho washed his face once and then immediately climbed up onto the stage.

“Ah, mic test. One, two. One, two. I’m Director Oh Ji-ho.”

Applause that comes out without me knowing.

The sound of clapping echoed throughout the room, but Jinhyuk intervened.

“This is someone who was hard to get! Let’s give another round of applause to the hospital director who is busy with hospital management and operations!”

Clap clap clap clap.

Clap clap clap clap.

“Wow!”

A loud roar.

3 seconds forward!

Well, it felt like this.

My stomach vibrated.

Not just a professor, but a hospital director.

The trainees also had eyes and ears, so they knew what to do in these situations.

‘So, did you see?’ Jiho Oh’s lecture, which was a bit boring as he glanced at Dongsu Han with an expression like that.

The attitude a surgeon should have.

How to do surgery well.

7 Conditions for Becoming a Good Doctor.

Etc. etc.

I was talking about something so obvious.

So, Jeong Seong-wook whispered right away.

“Hey, hey, number three over there. In the far corner. That little bastard is sleeping. Wake him up.”

“Oh. Okay.”

“Over there, at the very back. Oh, the one with the black horn-rimmed glasses. Wake him up too. Write his name down.”

Even though it was a lecture given by the hospital director himself, every day was full of tension.

From patient reviews, topic reviews, to journal reviews.

It’s natural, since you’re struggling with homework.

Progress agents ran around from time to time.

And that sight completely stimulated Oh Ji-ho’s nerves.

at last.

“Surgeon? It’s busy, hard, and difficult. Patients die all the time. Huh? That’s why you don’t come? 80-hour workweek limit. I’ll definitely stick to it!”

He announced something like a promise.

Of course, there was no reaction from the audience.

Special law for specialists already enacted.

The reality was that the 80-hour workweek was not properly observed, but the trainees had no way of knowing that.

When the expected reaction did not come out, Oh Ji-ho shouted.

“70 hours a week! Oh! When you guys work at the hospital, you’ll definitely work 70 hours a week!”

“… … .”

I took 10 hours off, but the same reaction.

Even if it was 70 hours a week, I had to go to work every day, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and work 10 hours each day.

That too, with the default of one hour deducted from commuting time and lunch time.

So, Oh Ji-ho took a risk.

“60 hours a week!! I’m the director of a hospital!”

“… … !”

“I’ll definitely protect you! Hey!”

“Waaa …

Cheers like a bell erupted belatedly.

60 hours of work per week.

Some say 52 hours a week is too little, but it was a groundbreaking promise.

I was able to rest on Sunday.

Because you only have to work 10 hours a day.

Of course, the schedule wasn’t supposed to turn out like that.

When the sound of clapping rang out from the auditorium, Jinhyuk immediately shook his head.

They say that they don’t want to be surgeons because it’s hard, difficult, and like X.

It is chivalry to resolutely oppose reinforcements.

No, it was the doctor himself.

So, it was true that I had doubts.

“Why are you doing that?”

* * *

When I participated in an international academic conference.

There was a time when a black guy, whose name I can’t even remember now, provoked me.

Tear your eyes side to side.

He didn’t even hesitate to be racist.

Conversely, it has been proven through academic papers that the more black people experience racial discrimination, the higher the rate at which they commit racial discrimination.

He said.

– Hey, Dr. Lee. It’s going to end anyway. Korea is finished. We can hold on for now, but no one will support us anymore.

And he himself answered.

– I’ll save you somehow. I’ll change you.

– Just a resident? What can you do?

– I’ve already changed a lot. I’m going to change everything.

– Ha, you’re talking funny.

Dr. Lian, who was laughing at himself.

So, I could immediately get down from the stage and whisper to Ji-ho Oh, who was standing there with the feeling of, ‘I’m the hospital director. Hey!’

“If we want to reduce the workweek to 60 hours, we need to hire more doctors.”

“Just pull it out! Hey!”

“The operations manager… … .”

“Me! I’m the hospital director! Hey!”

“If we suck you in like a black hole, what about the other hospitals?”

“what?”

“Then the local hospital… … .”

“There… … .”

“Ultimately, we need to increase the number of doctors. Shouldn’t we increase their numbers?”

“Ugh.”

The second issue of reinforcements already mentioned.

Oh Ji-ho immediately grabbed the back of his neck.

The one who was impatient about this was Jeong Seong-wook, who had caught the event magician right away.

“Hospital Director!! Aah! Jinhyeok! What kind of accident did you cause again!”
