Graduate School of Reality and Drama (5)
Oh So-hee and Kim Da-hye were unfamiliar with Oh Tae-woo appearing side by side with star actors on the screen.
“Hey, what role did Tae-woo oppa say?”
“I hear you’re Yoojung’s older brother.”
“Fortunately, it’s not an elite brain role. I was also worried that my brother would come out as a genius professor with an outrageous temper.”
“That’s what the PD writer crossed the line. That grizzly bear is a professor, hehehe.”
Oh Tae-woo’s role was an ordinary faculty member.
Although he was too strong to be called an ordinary Iranian… … .
-Kim Jeong-ae. Professor Hwang seems to have a lot of money. Shouldn’t I also get a proud brother-in-law and become a director of a university foundation instead of a university employee?
– Brother, are you crazy?
– He’s a proud person, but he’s friendly, so there’s nothing wrong with him. That’s all the lessons this brother learned in his long life.
-If you’re going to say that, then go. Go!
Kim Seok-hwang (Oh Tae-woo), who has a big age gap with his younger brother, was faithful to his role as licorice at the pharmacy.
With a gentle and slow character, he was helping to naturally evoke the atmosphere of the play.
Oh So-hee and Kim Da-hye felt a sense of deja vu when they saw it.
“That’s Tae-woo oppa’s usual character. Wow, how did the producer find out about that and put it right there?”
“It’s just the bulgomting as usual. Ooh, what kind of acting is that? It shows the original appearance.”
“Isn’t it the contrast group? Originally, if you collect a lot of nishikigoi, you will be confused whether this is pretty or not. It’s like if you sneak a goby in there and then you decide, “Oh, this is so beautiful.”
“Hey, but our Bulgomting is a bachelor, and don’t be discouraged at all in front of Yoo Jung-ah, just talk well. You’ve become a complete celebrity.”
“yes? Mistress, last time I should have been included unconditionally. Somehow, something happened at home.”
“I thought I had been active in the entertainment industry for 10 or 20 years. It didn’t smell like a rookie at all.”
“It’s the same with undergraduates. Isn’t that why the two of you get along so well?”
“Honestly, seeing her in front of the table like Yoo Jung-ah, she was so pretty that I didn’t even feel resentful.”
“If you say that one more time, a hundred times, a hundred times.”
“It’s not that tidy.”
In ＜The Hunter＞, the older brother who was like a ferocious male lion as the head of a young conglomerate bodyguard has become a naturally virtuous salaryman brother who occasionally scratches the inside of a competent professor sister.
I was like a different person in ＜The Hunter＞, but now I feel like a real older brother. Maybe it’s because it’s a character I’ve always seen.
-Professor Cha Young-woo, don’t do this to me and go to the president. I’m just following the official notice. It is the terminal that only follows orders.
– No, Manager Kim is at the end. And how do you go to the president with an agenda to buy a new robot vacuum cleaner?
-A robot vacuum cleaner? Isn’t that the Boston Dynamics new robot module?
-It’s just a robot vacuum cleaner, vacuum cleaner.
-It looks like they rejected it because of security because it has a camera. Choose a different product and try it.
-No, you need to have a camera to be good at distinguishing areas that have not been cleaned… … .
It is a little strange to see them blend so well without any sense of incongruity among the actors who boast outstanding acting skills and good looks.
“Oppa, you’ve become a real actor.”
“Yeah. I don’t know the lead role, but if I continue to play supporting roles, I’ll be able to become an A-class supporting actor. How much do A-level actors get paid these days? Should I show my brother well now and get married?”
“Crazy. Bullshit really.”
Suddenly, there are scenes in which fellow professors are surprised by Hwang Kun-wook’s paper published in Science.
– Did this person also dig nuclear fusion? What have you touched so much? Others have a hard time even having one for the rest of their lives.
-It seems that they did not sell nuclear fusion, but tied other things together to properly sell nuclear fusion. Now I see there are only four PhDs.
-You were very famous at Caltech. But why did you come to our university? What about tenure?
An interim re-evaluation of Hwang Geon-wook, who was wealthy and smart, but had no arrogance.

Not just smart, but ridiculously smart.
“Stand up, stand up. One-sided love was right there. Yoojung-ah, did you see the shaking of your eyes right now?”
“As a 15-year-old drama viewer, I would like to comment, those are the eyes that I usually show when I forcefully go wild with anger because I don’t want to admit the love that has sprouted in my heart.”
“Ah, does Yoo Jung-ah do such delicate emotional acting?”
“He’s good at acting emotions. It just looks like it’s going to smoke because it eats the face debuff.”
“Hey, since when have you been such a fan of Yoo Jung?”
“Since when we ate together with the student?”
If you’re a drama fan, you have to multitask to explore the web community to check the fandom’s reaction in real time.
“Wow, now not only the entertainment department, but also the international department handles the story of Hwang Kun-wook.”
“That’s funny. If you have nothing to write an article about, do you even extend your pen to dramas?”
“I must say that the dissertation you put out this time under the bachelor degree is amazing.”
The two created the illusion of equating the thesis written by ‘Jeong Seo-hoon’ with the content in the drama.
A cognitive error that can easily be caused by simply looking at the title and partially stitched memes.
Until now, the percentage of fans like this was overwhelmingly high.
“Oh, looking at this, it seems that the bachelor was also doing the thesis experiment while filming.”
“yes? That’s really great. Geary graduate school and acting at the same time.”
“It seems that the reporters misunderstood the article that Hwang Geon-wook published in Science, and wrote a lot of articles.”
“Oh, I’m going to look into it properly and write an article. No matter how much an actor’s side job is science, what should I do if I write an article without distinguishing what I did in real life and what I achieved in the drama.”
“I know yeah.”

Lee Se-jong was sitting on the phone, leaning back in a chair. The call was conducted in English.
– It is impossible to reproduce according to this thesis. There is no specific test method written. It cannot be loaded like this.
“KSTAR conducts nuclear fusion experiments with deuterium and tritium. Since its inception, it has never had any helium. Then what do you think of the helium that came out as the final fusion result?”
-Unfortunately, we cannot rule out the possibility of a large-scale manipulation scandal.
“Are you saying that a government-funded research institute actively participated in a manipulation experiment of a first-year master’s degree student who has nothing to do with it? With the giants of physics gathering and watching?”
-… … .
It was a sharp point.
There is no reason for the Korea Nuclear Fusion Energy Research Institute to actively help from one to one hundred in ‘Jeong Seo-hoon’s thesis fabrication’.
Wouldn’t it be better if they manipulated themselves?
The other person’s voice softened slightly.
-We only had the worst possibility in mind. We respectfully request revisions to the thesis. Please insert a specific experimental method that anyone can reproduce.
In the thesis, it was written that ‘the resistance of the electrostatic force can be attenuated or ignored without high energy input by applying an irregular and fragmented voltage load to the particles’, which made the scientists go crazy.
“Editor-in-Chief Colde, let’s assume. The existence of Pluto was proved by showing a picture of Pluto taken by New Horizons in the Goryeo Dynasty. But how did you ‘draw this’, and if you can’t prove it, you won’t believe it. Then what should I do?”
-I don’t think the analogy fits.
“Then, in this era, what is it appropriate to compare room-temperature nuclear fusion to?”
-… … .
It was not Lee Se-jong’s original intention to keep his mouth shut here.
After gently deflecting his energy, Lee Se-jong brought out his original purpose.
“That ‘load manipulation’ is the key to cold fusion. To be honest, if it is disclosed, dogs and cows will have room temperature nuclear fusion technology, but if you are like the editor-in-chief, can you use it 100% as it is?”
-… … That makes sense.
“According to the student, he applied the arithmetic formulas that were patched together in an infinitely repetitive labor formula. Right now, I am organizing it neatly into an equation, and I am contemplating how far I should disclose it.”
– You are preparing a patent.
“Absolutely. Of course, the patent will not include commercial know-how. We will only include the line for sharing scientific knowledge and protecting technology.”
Science editor-in-chief Kold’s voice softened a little.
-Then can we wait and trust that additional revisions will be reflected?
“But since the disciple is so busy… … .”
-professor! If it is true that we have found clues to room temperature nuclear fusion, this means that humanity will truly enter the era of energy free! What could be more important than this?
“I think the equation theorem and the particle load manipulation method won’t be finished within this year. And I really hope that the thesis will be published this year. You know what I mean?”
– You want to win the Nobel Prize next year. However, it will be difficult in the current state of the thesis. I need a supplement.
Concerned that this might be the case, I mobilized all possible connections with great scholars to show real-time experiments and share raw data.
After all, it’s because he’s a science who got into trouble with Korea in the past, so he doesn’t open his heart easily.
“Then let’s do this.”
– How do you mean?
“Science prepares the stage for reenactment. Our Dr. Chung will only bring a laptop.”
-… … .
“There is one condition, as long as there is a level of nuclear fusion comparable to that of KSTAR. Organize and supervise all experimental stages from one to ten in Science. You may call any number of validators. The disciple said he would reenact it on the spot.”
-If you go that far, we can trust this first thesis. But is there any motivation to put in such a huge effort?
“Ah, I made the same suggestion to Nature. If I get rejected from science, I will bring my thesis. Nature said it would do it unconditionally.”
The sound of grinding teeth from beyond the receiver happily massages the eardrum.
“Remember. I don’t have much time to publish my thesis within this year. Our Dr. Jung doesn’t have much greed for scientific honor, but I don’t. My student, I must see you win the Nobel Prize next year.”

The atmosphere of Nonhyeon-dong’s hometown, which I visited after a long time, was different from usual.
My mother greeted Jeong Seo-hoon with indescribable emotions.
“Sehun. Was it a real story, not a drama story, that you submitted your thesis to that science? I heard from Su-ryun.”
“I did it in the drama, and I did it in real life as well. The drama has been published, but the reality is still being reviewed.”
“I also looked for some articles, but I heard that the reenactment method was not written down properly, so it would not be recognized as it is. What else do you mean? I sometimes see the word fabrication of the thesis… … .”
His voice is full of caution, perhaps even worrying about what he is saying. I am worried that my son will fall into the swamp of dishonor.
“Manipulation is nonsense. Then the whole large fusion research institute jumped into fabricating thesis for me alone, does this make sense?”
“Isn’t it? How honest my son is, but to fabricate thesis. Do you know how shocked I was to see such a story?”
“You know that the professor and my father have also verified that I am capable of cold fusion. So don’t worry.”
Jeong Su-ryun couldn’t stand it and giggled next to him.
“Hey! So are you really going to win a Nobel Prize? in your 20s? You haven’t even got a master’s degree yet?”
“I will ride.”
“Wow, Mom. How could this be? No, even if I gave it to my brother, he drove it too much! It is said that the rich are genetically rich and the poor are poor, but isn’t this too much child discrimination?”
“That hair gene came from your dad, not from me. Go to your dad and say something.”
While happily appreciating Jeong Su-ryun’s outbursts, whining about her envy and unfairness, Lee Se-jong’s call came.
Jeong Seo-hoon turned his back on the screaming and walked away, answering the phone.
“Yes, Professor.”
-Dr. Jung.
Lee Sejong’s voice was much more affectionate than before.
-Is it possible to travel abroad for a while?
“Looks like the stage for the show is ready.”
-Yes, they say that Science has prepared a very big stage. Dr. Jung go and give a performance. After you finish, sing a song.
“It will take three days for a round trip.”
– It will be possible on the same day. The place is Japan.
“Is it Japan?”
It was unexpected. I thought it would be the US.
-Because we will be most wary of room-temperature fusion results coming out at our university. The idea of science is that the most thorough and objective verification can be achieved. There will be far more scientists from all over the world coming to KFE than ever before.
“It doesn’t matter where or who comes.”
There was a force in his voice.
“With my hands and eyes, the result will be the same.”
