Episode 345. The Power of Ramen (3)

Pregnancy test kit.

Although the accuracy reached 95%, the possibility of false negatives could not be ruled out.

A method of diagnosis by detecting the pregnancy hormone (hCG) in urine.

If the concentration is abnormally high or the urine output is low, it can lead to incorrect results.

That’s why I went to the gynecologist.

While I was waiting in the waiting room, I called the head of pediatric surgery.

The past few months have been like Pixton.

He was a manager who was proud of himself.

So soon.

[Hey, you’re out. You haven’t had a proper vacation in a while. That damn vacation. If you want to take it, take it. Yeah, a week would be enough?]

“A week? To be away for that long… .”

[What, it’s a practical exam or something, everyone’s on vacation. Just go and come back. You said you finished it in 30 minutes anyway? You might as well turn off your phone and go into hiding.]

A sudden suggestion.

When Jinhyeok asked in a questioning tone, the head of pediatric surgery said something unexpected.

[The first period had 130 questions and the second period had 120 questions.]

“Yes, sir.”

[If you solved it that quickly, there would be a lot of people asking for the problem to be restored.]

“… … .”

[You get cursed at for not doing it. Even if you do it, you get cursed at. Don’t even do anything that will get you caught. That’s what I’m saying.]

“ah…….”

[You still have to be careful. Behave properly. Don’t do anything that will even get you talked about!]

The call was immediately hung up.

There was concern and anxiety, and consideration for himself.

No, more than that.

‘Don’t even do anything that will get you caught?’

Belated realization sets in.

okay.

Restoring the problem was an action that could be talked about.

Han Dong-soo said he was worried about his third year, but wasn’t there a time when the exam committee leaked the questions and it was reported on the news?

That too in a surgical specialist exam.

Of course, that hasn’t happened yet.

However, since the strike was barely prevented, it was right to avoid even the smallest risks.

So right now.

“I, Professor. That is… … .”

I called Han Dong-soo and explained the situation.

I had an accident.

So I can’t do anything.

hereto.

[Hey. Lee Jin-hyuk. Hey! You, Inma! Congratulations! Is it your son? Is it your daughter?]

“I don’t know yet.”

[Really? First of all, it’s CS. You know? You have to raise them well. Raise them well and send them to medical school. Make sure they become CS people. That’s what I’m saying.]

“Huh? Already? He hasn’t even been born yet?”

[Why? You’re not going to make me a doctor?]

“I haven’t even thought about it yet.”

[Of course I should! He was born with dexterity! He must have inherited that damn ability or something. The father does surgery! The son does scrubs! How great is that!]

Han Dong-soo is already excited.

Jinhyuk stuck out his tongue and hung up the phone.

but.

‘We’re having surgery together?’

I couldn’t help but imagine things without realizing it.

The daughter handing over the scalpel.

And Dad, who points out mistakes.

It’s a dream come true to operate on a person’s heart while working on it together.

It was truly a romantic thing.

The reason why there are so many families of doctors.

There may be many reasons, but isn’t it everyone’s dream to have surgery together between father and daughter, or even father and son?

so.

‘The supplies for catching stones are scalpels, forceps, scissors, syringes, and stethoscopes… ‘

Needless to say, I was already thinking about the supplies for catching stones.

Judge’s gavel?

Soccer ball?

mike?

All of that was unnecessary.

No, leaving too many things behind was dangerous.

okay.

Mess. Just laying down the mess was also a good idea.

* * *

And he acts like an old fart.

Jinhyuk Lee, who sometimes acts like an old man.

The only thing I lacked was that I didn’t have much dating experience.

so.

“You’re saying I should just lay down the knife? Do you have anything to do with the baby right now?”

Hyunah Lee immediately frowned.

But given the place, she lowered her voice with superhuman patience.

“Don’t be nervous, you’ll do fine. Okay? Let’s go in now.”

The restaurant I went into like that.

Lee Hyun-ah’s parents arrived first.

Since it wasn’t a frozen state, I was able to be welcomed.

If there is a problem.

“I disagree. I mean, the military. Isn’t Sang-geun a bit like that?”

The story was that the prospective craftsman had trouble with military service.

When Jinhyuk remained silent, he continued.

“If you go to the military medical office, you’ll be a captain anyway. You’ll have three diamonds. You can commute to work. You’ll get a salary. What’s the problem with that?”

“That’s true.”

“Men, you know. You have to do it properly. That’s how you become wise.”

It means that full-time work is not allowed.

The thoughts of adults have not changed from the past to the present.

Of course, Jinhyuk, who had already been there once, just smiled awkwardly.

That makes sense.

Going to the military twice was truly horrible.

Wasn’t it so bad that it made you break out in a cold sweat just by appearing in your dreams?

but.

“You say you enjoy seeing patients so much. How many people do you think make a living doing what they love? There aren’t many. No, there aren’t any at all. It’s really rare.”

“That’s right. Because everyone lives forgetting their dreams.”

“Yeah. That’s what I’m saying. If you go to Sanggeun, you won’t be able to treat patients or anything. Armed Forces Capital Hospital is in Bundang anyway.”

The persuasion continued.

The words of the pediatric surgeon, telling me not to do anything that would get me caught, lingered in my ears.

When you are struggling with what to do.

The woman who was to become my mother-in-law opened her mouth late.

“Have you decided on a name?”

“Yes, that’s… … . Um… … .”

“… … ? Why? Haven’t you built it yet?”

“I… … . That’s, ramen, that’s what I named it.”

“What? Ramen? Why? Did you have a dream about eating ramen?”

“That, that… … .”

Jinhyeok, unable to tell the truth, closed his eyes tightly.

This kind of thing will continue to happen in the future.

I must have buttoned up the first button wrong.

* * *

When are you getting married?

What is love?

He himself doesn’t know.

There are many people who think that marriage is simply about spending the rest of your life with the person next to you when the time comes.

Longing, comfort, affection, passion, desire, love and hate.

Because every single bit of emotion will fall into the category of love.

Even a brief thought is fleeting.

This time, my father was against it.

“There’s already a lot of talk. My father is against it too. He says that public health doctors go to the countryside. Then I think it would be better to just go as a military doctor.”

“I wonder.”

“Yes. Armed Forces Capital Hospital. It’s only been two years since it moved to Bundang. My brother-in-law said the same thing. Then do that.”

“… … .”

Opposition from both sets of elders.

Let Jinhyuk remain silent.

Even Lee Hyun-ah came forward.

“Father, I think it would be a good idea for me to do that too.”

“hmm?”

“I went to Sang-geun for no reason using my child as an excuse. I intentionally left. I think it seems like I caused an accident on purpose. I was afraid that there would be malicious comments or rumors. I was too short-sighted. I’m sorry.”

There are already a lot of enemies, so there is no need to give them an excuse.

Jinhyeok nodded as he remembered that even Lee Ji-hoon, a member of the colorectal surgery department, had caused a stir.

That makes sense.

If someone with malicious intent were to bring up military issues, reporters would immediately start trying to make headlines.

That was absolutely unacceptable, as it could have hurt the child.

Besides, wasn’t he the one who acted like an apostle of justice?

‘I guess we don’t live alone in this world. We have to listen to what other people say… … .’

When these thoughts come to mind naturally.

The mother, who was delighted that she had let go of her worries and thought she would live her whole life as a bachelor, stepped forward.

“By the way. What is your name?”

“Huh? What’s your name?”

“Oh, you just stay still. I’m going to ask our daughter-in-law. Okay?”

“That, that.”

“Haven’t you decided yet?”

“No, I have decided.”

“What did you decide? Huh?”

“… … .”

Lee Hyun-ah couldn’t answer and just blushed.

She also seemed embarrassed to reveal ‘Ramen’s’ identity.

Then Jinhyuk stepped forward.

“The nickname is ‘CS’.”

“what?”

“It’s called ‘CS’.”

“Oh my! This kid is real! What kind of thoracic surgery name is that for a kid!!”

Even though his mother screamed in horror, Jinhyuk remained steadfast.

“When I grow up and become a doctor, I want to do surgeries together. That’s why I named it ‘CS.’”

It was a name that contained his own wishes.

* * *

The place we decided on as our new home is Jamsil Siyoung Apartment.

It was the perfect location, facing the Asin Hospital and the embankment road.

Of course, there was a lot of noise about the need for reconstruction.

The first day back after finishing so many things.

After a long surgery, Jang Hyuk-jun approached Jin-hyeok, who was looking for a break room.

“Comrade Vulcan! You said you had an accident?”

“Huh? Who told you that?”

“The rumor spread like wildfire. Didn’t you know? Didn’t anyone pretend to know?”

“Wow… … . Somehow everyone’s eyes are… … .”

When Jinhyeok blinked his eyes in confusion, Jang Hyukjun smiled faintly.

“Wow, I thought you were dying to get in touch.”

“Who told you that? Professor Han, perhaps?”

“Bingo! I thought you were already planning to come to CS?”

“No, really. He wasn’t even born yet.”

“He told me not to be upset that he wasn’t going to make a yama (family tree). I think he spread the rumor on purpose.”

It was said that there was a deep meaning.

They said that for some reason, the contact requesting restoration of the problem suddenly stopped, and there was such a story.

Now that we’ve sorted out the military issue.

Jinhyeok started working while Jang Hyukjun watched.

Dadadak.

Dadadak.

The practical exam is coming up soon.

Since there was an oral exam as well as a practical demonstration, I had to submit the surgical records first.

Thirty of them, too.

Why did you have surgery like that?

What was the problem?

You will have to have a question-and-answer session with the interviewer.

As Jinhyeok filled out the surgical records by looking through past cases, Jang Hyukjun became curious.

“Why do you only choose such difficult things?”

“You know they don’t release the results of the specialist exam, right?”

“I know. The scores aren’t public.”

“Except for the first place, they are all second place. That’s why.”

“Do you really have to be the top student? Why? Because of that guy? Is it Lee Ji-hoon or something? Why, you picked a fight back then.”

“That too… … . The number of people who are hostile to me, knowingly or unknowingly, is increasing again. And… … .”

“and?”

“I don’t know yet whether it’s a girl or a boy. I’ll tell you later. Dad was top student. So you should study hard too… .”

Jinhyuk stopped talking and trailed off.

Because as I spoke, I felt embarrassed.

In fact, the role of parents was clear.

Supporting and assisting children to do what they want to do.

That was the true role of parents.

When I was young, it helped me maintain a stable residential infrastructure and make friends for a long time.

Because it was right to encourage them to do what they wanted to do.

But now, he himself was unable to get rid of his old habits and was acting like an old man.

of course.

‘But I think it would be a good idea to try the surgery together… … .’

Jinhyuk was still unable to let go of his attachment.

* * *

Causes, anatomy, pathology, physiology.

Definition, symptoms, diagnosis.

Indications, treatment, complications.

Until the prognosis.

The first test asked everything about each sub-branch.

The second exam had to be taken only by residents belonging to the Department of General Surgery.

Unlike the internal medicine department, which took its exam at a hotel, all the surgeons went to Konkuk University Hospital.

Because the clinical skills center was larger than expected.

Well, the site was large.

It couldn’t be helped.

Not long after, Jinhyuk entered the large auditorium with his exam ticket around his neck, drawing attention.

The surgeons from each hospital who had been chatting with their colleagues began to look at Jinhyeok’s appearance without fail.

Of course, curiosity is contained in that gaze.

No, it was a favor.

Very few.

So, except for those who seemed to belong to the colorectal surgery department, everyone’s gaze towards Jinhyeok was gentle.

For that reason, Jinhyeok bowed his head slightly as a greeting, then sat down and closed his eyes.

His own number is 139.

We will gather as a group, listen to the instructions, and then move to a temporary examination room.

Waiting was the answer.

How much time has passed like that?

The dispatcher shouted.

“From 136 to 140! Just follow me!”

Jinhyuk immediately stood up from his seat. Then he smiled faintly.

Lee Ji-hoon, a member of the Department of Colorectal Surgery, who caused a disturbance at Samyuk University’s athletic field.

His number just so happened to be 138.

They say enemies meet on a single-log bridge.

It was such a coincidence.

Oh, weren’t you an enemy?
