A professor acting as a professor (2)
“Congratulations, Professor Jeong.”
“Congratulations, Professor Jung.”
“Let’s do our best in the future.”
Some professors showed courtesy by using friendly respect despite the age difference.
He must have been more cautious because he was a person who was taken for granted as Korea’s first Nobel Prize winner in science in his early twenties.
The president stretched out his chest and said.
“The government has decided to create a new special rule for our university. So that Nobel laureates can freely conduct research and lecture to their heart’s content regardless of their retirement age. In fact, it can be seen as a gift for Professor Chung.”
“The president has been very active. thank you.”
“Heh heh, I only said a few words. Don’t take it too seriously.”
On the outside, he was humbled, but he seemed happy that Jung Seo-hoon recognized his efforts.
“I’m asking you out of curiosity, are you really not worried about stolen research materials?”
“Yes. It would be faster for the culprits to complete the nuclear fusion themselves than to try to succeed in decryption.”
“Then, when can Professor Jung’s nuclear fusion research be commercialized?”
Everyone is full of great expectations.
Jeong Seo-hun suddenly remembered what Lee Se-jong often grumbled about.
‘The nuclear fusion reactor is in Daejeon, which is far away. It’s too inconvenient to study.’
The fact that KSTAR is located in Daejeon has its own circumstances.
Prevention of population deepening in the metropolitan area, uniform development of local areas, purpose of Daedeok R&D Special Zone, etc.
After the beautiful campus shooting is over, there is nothing to do at KSTAR anymore.
“We need more work to refine the theory. I am still cautious.”
“As expected, the research materials are gone… … .”
“Oh, there is nothing more to see in KSTAR.”
“Yes?”
“Yes. It’s a tokamak-style fusion reactor in the first place. It is fundamentally different from the electrostatic force control method I pursue.”
The eyes of professors related to nuclear physics, including the president, twinkled.
KSTAR is not needed, the world’s top nuclear fusion authority nailed it.
If so, you will have to start over from the bottom, and if you do well, Seoul may bring back the initiative in nuclear fusion research.
The entire Korea Nuclear Fusion Research Institute may have to pack up and come up to the metropolitan area.
For a nuclear fusion researcher residing in Seoul, isn’t this a once-in-a-lifetime rebuilding opportunity?
“Of course, you don’t have to touch anything until you’ve got the equations sorted out. I can’t say yet when it will end.”
“hahahaha, don’t be pressured and do it slowly. I’ve already been there once, so why can’t I go again just because I lost some data?”
“of course. It will remain somewhere in our Professor Jeong’s mind, so we just have to wait for it to come up again.”
Everyone looked forward to a bright future.
The president proposed a tenure ceremony, but Lee Se-jong blocked it.

[This is a full notice of B-Lab! Must read!!!!]
– We bring you good news. It may be sad news for some of the fan base, but it’s good news because it’s objectively good news.
A dissertation on nuclear fusion published by our bachelor’s degree in Science has passed the Doctoral Review Committee of Korea University.
It will still take some time for a formal degree to come out, but now I am a doctor.
Also, at the place where I was recognized for my Ph.D. acquisition, the President of Hankook University officially announced that I had passed the Tenure Professor examination.
From now on, our bachelor is a doctor, full-time, and tenured professor.
Also, even if you reach the retirement age of 65, you can freely engage in research and lecture activities until you want to quit our bachelor’s degree.
This is a special benefit only for undergraduates who have published great research, which is not available for other tenured professors at Korea University.
therefore convey.
In the future, the title of bachelor is to inform you that you have graduated with honor.
I won’t ban you, but please be aware that it is a huge insult to keep calling someone who has been promoted to an executive.
In the future, we recommend using titles such as ‘Professor’, ‘Professor’, and ‘Professor Jeong’.
‘Professor’ is highly recommended for unity, simplicity and symbolism.
-All operators-
When it became known that he had obtained a doctorate degree and tenure belatedly, the fandom was in a fuss.
-Wow;;; Was it possible to acquire a tenure in the first semester of graduate school?
-Absolutely not lol
-Isn’t this only possible in webtoons? Does it even happen in real life?
– There must have been one or two things that needed to be repaired, but the conservative university foundation managed to allow me to get a doctorate in the first semester.
-LOL Then, I should immediately give a doctorate to the person who left the Nobel Prize and announced the room-temperature nuclear fusion clue. What are you going to do?
– It was right to be the first player to lose to a foreign university. This is what Korea University did well.
-But if you are a tenured professor, you will be a slave to Korea University until you die? I guess that’s too much
– hahahahaha Tenure is not such a concept.
– Colleges can no longer cut bachelor’s degrees. But bachelor’s can leave at any time.
-Ah, is that so?
-Besides, since you said that it will be guaranteed unconditionally even after the retirement age, Hankook University is no different from the property of a bachelor. To be honest, the inventor of room temperature nuclear fusion should crawl
-Bachelor x Professor o
-ㅋㅋㅋ I ended up becoming a professor in real life while filming a drama in which I appear as a professor.
– hahahaha Professor acting as a professor ㅠㅠㅠ
-I just wrote the script by predicting the future as if it was true that I was possessed by Kim Sang-hee.
-Sanghee’s sister… … Did you see everything as Ye Jian? Is it like that?
* * *
Although recognized as a professor, Chung Seo-hoon had no intention of giving lectures. Even the school didn’t want him to lecture. So, I plan to become a research professor.
The position in Sejong Lee’s laboratory has also changed.
Previously, he was treated as the crown prince of the kingdom of the laboratory, but now everyone looked up to him as the founding monarch just before branching out.
“Have you been to the president’s office, Professor?”
“… … Ki-tae type. What’s wrong.”
“Professor, how do you do that to a late doctoral student? Just be comfortable with this guy and that guy.”
Hwang Gi-tae exaggeratedly bowed his back.
“Sleep, boys. Professor Jeong Tenure is leaving. Get out of the way.”
“Yeah!”
“know? A 20-year-old professor is a record that will not appear again in Korea. You guys are sharing that glorious moment.”
“By the way, isn’t there a record of K University’s appointment as the youngest professor at the age of 19? Although he was a foreigner.”
“Do you want to get hot?”
In any case, there was a very high possibility that the record of the youngest professor Jeong Seo-hoon achieved as a Korean national would not be broken in the future.
At the age of 20, the record of being a tenure at Korea University will remain as the gatekeeper of the Wailing Wall.
“Professor Jeong, what are you going to do next?”
“why?”
“I was fine with tenure, but I was wondering if I was going to stay in the lab. Shouldn’t we be independent?”
“well. For the time being, I plan to stay under Professor Sejong Lee.”
“If it were you, I think you would be able to run the lab independently.”
A graduate school lab is like a kind of small company.
Jeong Seo-hoon is now qualified to establish his own company.
“Hyung, what about the fans who applied for graduate school because of me?”
“Oh, I see.”
“I have to live as an actor anyway, so running my own rap is a burden. I’m going to stay here in the lab for a while.”
“I get it.”
Fan slaves came out in droves and surrounded Jeong Seo-hoon and congratulated him. There were many fan slaves who were happy and showed tears as if it were their own work.
And little worries.
“Professor, you’re not going to leave the lab just because you got tenure, right? Will you still be here?”
“You can’t go anywhere! I am enduring this difficult graduate school life just by looking at my professor.”
“If you are going, you must take us too.”
Jeong Seo-hoon reassured the fan slaves with a benevolent smile resembling Lee Se-jong.
“Do not worry. I don’t intend to be independent for a while. I have to live as an actor, but how can I run my own lab?”
“Professor, are you going to give lectures in the future? Can we hear it too?”
“I don’t think I will ever do lectures. I plan to work as a research professor.”
Jeong Seo-hoon kindly answered each and every question of the fan slaves and reassured them.
“I have a photoshoot, so it’s enough.”
When it was time to shoot, Jeong Seo-hoon left the lab.
Outdoors on campus, preparations for filming had already been completed.
Song Jeong-woo approached and asked if he had heard the news.
“Mr. Seo Hoon. I read an article in the b-rap fandom, that he became a professor… … .”
“Yes, I was notified by the president a while ago.”
“Then did you really become a tenure?”
“Yes.”
“Wow, really.”
Song Jeong-woo got goosebumps on his forearm and scratched himself.
“Twenty-two now? Wasn’t it just twenty? your birthday is in december How do you become a tenured professor at the best university in Korea at that age? These days, even if the setting of a drama is set up like that, I get insulted. There is no realism at all.”
“If I appear, reality will not be a problem.”
“I know yeah. Real drama writers should thank Seo Hoon. You really expanded the range of character settings.”
“Seeing PD-nim is so surprised, I think it’s a liberal arts course.”
“Yes? Am I just Moon and Sensibility? Even when leaves fall in the autumn wind, I just want to recite a poem, and I just do that.”
Song Jeong-woo laughed because he thought he was praising his sensitivity.
Jeong Seo-hoon said it with the opposite meaning.
‘They are more surprised and admired than during nuclear fusion.’
Tenure at Korea University at the age of 22?
Compared to room-temperature nuclear fusion, it is just a performance like a firefly in front of the sun.
But Song Jeong-woo is much more shocked now than then.
‘As expected, this is the limit of literature… … .’
It must be that comparing the value of room-temperature nuclear fusion and tenure doesn’t go well, Jeong Seo-hoon passed it over.
Outdoor shooting went smoothly.
Jeong Seo-hoon sat in a simple chair and watched other actors perform passionately.
Chae Ji-hyun, who was sitting next to her, spoke quietly.
“congratulations. I heard you became a full-time professor.”
“thank you.”
“But isn’t being a professor busier than an alumni?”
“I don’t think there will be anything special.”
“Then acting… … .”
“There is no limit to activities. The university side also decided to be considerate. It’s a bit embarrassing to say with my own mouth.”
Jeong Seo-hoon paused for a moment.
It is directed to accurately convey the feeling of embarrassment. Acting is necessary because the real heart is not like that.
“It’s the university’s position that you want to hold onto me even if you do that.”
“Ah, Seo Hoon is the top, isn’t it?”
“It’s a very one-sided relationship. Don’t go anywhere and tell me that I said this.”
“Ah, yes. Why would I say this elsewhere?”
He seemed relieved to hear that being a professor would not interfere with his life as an actor.
“My role, Chae Sara, likes Hwang Gun-wook.”
“Yes, it is.”
“I also like Hwang Kun-wook. However, I thought Hwang Gun-wook was different from Jeong Seo-hoon, but Hwang Gun-wook broke the drama and came out in reality. right in front of my eyes.”
Chae Ji-hyun let out a light sigh.
“Do you remember when we were filming the storage room?”
“Yes, I am still alive.”
“It was really fun then. It was fun. The movie almost fell because of actor Yoon’s scandal, but Seo Hoon came in as a pinch hitter and amazingly saved it. Thanks to you, it has exceeded 10 million.”
“It’s because the film was originally chosen well. I only put a spoon on it at the end.”
“How could the sequel be confirmed when it was only spoon-fed? Seo Hoon is the hidden protagonist.”
Chae Ji-hyun looked embarrassedly and added.
“I was very excited when I shot that kiss scene. I was grateful to the director for continuing to give me an engine. Oh, embarrassing.”
“I liked it too. It was fun being with Jihyun from the beginning to the end.”
“I haven’t changed much since then, I’m in my place, but Seo Hoon-ssi has gone so far ahead that I can’t even see his back anymore.”
“Acting is not a 100-meter race. It’s not about someone showing their back and going ahead, but I think it’s a process of building a big building together.”
“… … .”
“As long as we are acting, as colleagues, we will always be by each other’s side.”
I don’t know how it seemed to Chae Ji-hyun.
However, it was clear that his expression had brightened a lot more than before.
“I hope to shoot a sequel soon. Seo Hoon only follows me there. There is no need to compete with headaches like View Cam.”
“I’m chasing you for revenge, is that okay?”
“As much as you like.”
* * *
After filming was over, the staff withdrew from the campus.
Ha Tae-soo watched the production team vehicles leave side by side with Jeong Seo-hoon.
“Did you see Soo-ryun’s expression earlier?”
“uh.”
“I felt like crying. What’s wrong?”
“Nuna’s expression of regret because of me is definitely like that. When I go home later, I will weep loudly again.”
“Because you became a professor?”
“Nothing other than that.”
Ha Tae-soo, who was quietly sipping as if it was funny, suddenly remembered and said,
“Oh. A request came in from you. If it’s big, it’s big, if it’s small, it’s small.”
“What?”
“It may be a bit absurd for you. Listen and don’t laugh too much. What do you think it might be?”
“I don’t think it’s a drama, movie, or CF. Is it entertainment?”
“No, Korea Education Channel Corporation. EBC.”
“… … what?”
“It seems that rumors about your tutoring skills have spread.”
