In This Life,
after the explosion of coolness of Seok-hyeon (532) as a child, it was naturally the main character, Kang-hee.
I wonder if an intern would be active with a second-year resident next to him, but the main character, even if he was just starting out in society, was able to beat the executive level and get the attention of the chairman.
‘But
In fact, ‘Sim Jeong-ah’, a second-year thoracic surgery resident, was forced to choose thoracic surgery even though it did not suit her aptitude.
This is because the desire to follow in the footsteps of his father, Shim Jin-myeong, who is Korea’s top authority in the field of pediatric cardiology, overcame all other suffering.
‘I don’t know if it’s a good attitude to have as a doctor.’
As she followed a similar path to her older brother, Seok-hyeon, Jeong-ah faced many comparisons, knowingly or unknowingly.
Just as a bright child’s colors fade when standing next to a genius, she was hidden in her brother’s shadow.
I felt jealous and competitive with my brother, who always never missed the top prize and was called ‘Professor Shim’s son.’
―I will apply as CS.
―Really? Are you okay?
―One of the professors is also a woman. It’s true that surgery is physically difficult, but is there anything you can’t do? And I’m my father’s daughter.
Her older brother switched to anesthesiology rather than chest medicine, and Jeong-ah thought that applying to cardiology was an opportunity to prove that she was exactly like her father.
‘I didn’t think that decision would actually strangle me.’
‘Jinmyeong’ was not a person who favored doctors with insufficient skills because they were his children.
He pushed his daughter, who came under him, harshly.
Thoracic surgery is often directly linked to life.
As the worst could happen if the doctor did not come to his senses, ‘Jin-myeong’ acted sternly, and ‘Jung-ah’, who was so oppressed, lost her sense of direction after her father’s death.
‘He was a respectable father, but that doesn’t mean he was perfect as a parent…’
Even though he was an excellent doctor, Jinmyeong was indifferent to his children.
To be precise, I trusted children who would grow up well on their own without causing accidents.
Even though she was angry at her son who insisted on his opinion even if he was about to die, she never worried about her daughter who followed her well and did not notice the pain in her heart.
‘Jinmyeong found out about it later and blamed himself a lot… Now that I think about it, it’s a spoonful of sinpa instead of romance.’
In any case, for that reason, ‘Jeong-ah’ was shaken and an opportunity was created for ‘Kang-hee’ to be active.
“The cut is good. “I’ll be there right away.”
Producer Kang, who made a big decision to increase the number of cameras to two to create realistic surgery scenes, shouted the following as soon as he confirmed that there were no mistakes.
Since most of the surgery scenes up to episode 14 were scheduled to be filmed today and tomorrow, the staff became busy.
“The surgical area is very realistic.”
“Hahaha, it’s the result of changing the art team.”
Unlike other actors, Soo-hyun, who was standing beyond the cloth, was amazed when she saw the pile.
A strange shine catches the light and sparkles like real human intestines.
It was evident that a lot of effort was put into both the camera and the model.
‘Even if you save a lot of money, it’s a good environment if you pay attention to these aspects.’
No matter how much cooperation was obtained from the hospital, there were many difficulties filming in the operating room that patients were supposed to use, so the production team proceeded with filming by decorating a part of a newly built building that had not yet been equipped with equipment to resemble an operating room.
As the various efforts were visible, it gave me strength as an actor.
“Even though the mask is thin, it’s frustrating to keep wearing it. Senior Yurim, aren’t your glasses heavy?”
“It was light at first, but gradually I started to feel a weight on the bridge of my nose.”
While the next scene was being prepared, Soyoung chatted with actress Yurim, who had just played ‘Jeongah’.
Yu-Rim smiled, wrinkling the bridge of her nose, saying that even though it is a loupe of the same shape and does not have an actual lens, it is still uncomfortable.
“Senior, the next scene is the end, right?”
Unlike the main character ‘Kanghee’, ‘Jeongah’ did not appear in every surgery scene.
Cardiothoracic surgery fellow ‘Heo Jang-sik’ had more work to do with ‘Kang-hee’, so Yu-rim’s schedule for today ended earlier than usual.
“that’s right. “Oh, the director is so nice.”
“I think it would have been easier if I had worked with the director last year.”
“There really aren’t many cases where supporting actors are given this much consideration.”
The episodes in which ‘Kanghee’ participated in the surgery with ‘Jeongah’ were episodes 4, 5, and 9.
Even though there was an episode between episodes 5 and 9 where ‘Kanghee’ entered the operating room with another doctor, PD Kang filmed the surgery scene in episode 9 first.
It was an efficient and considerate schedule compared to other environments where supporting actors or newcomers are simply left to wait according to the lead schedule.
“Soohyun, don’t you want to finish early today too?”
“Oh, I have to go somewhere else for a while. “Junwoo’s filming comes first.”
“aha.”
Su-hyeon, who felt a slight toothache while brushing her teeth after lunch, apologized to the PD and made an appointment for outpatient treatment.
While Soo-hyun was away, Jun-woo, who played the role of ‘Hong Yeon-min’, a second-year anesthesiologist, was scheduled to start filming.
“It’s hard to keep standing, but it’s comfortable because you’re not moving.”
“Even though phytoncide doesn’t come out, the surrounding area is green so it’s easy on the eyes.”
“Hahahahaha. Iknow, right….”
“…? Ah haha. “Have fun, senior.”
“….”
Su-hyeon, who joked while looking at the green scenery of the operating room, was hurt by the forced laughter that followed.
In Soyoung’s case, she reacted a beat late and killed him twice.
‘It was kind of a joke…’
The operating room, where a lot of red is used, was decorated with green, a complementary color to red, to reduce eye fatigue and afterimage effects.
It was an ambiguous joke related to the fact that green reminds us of plants, but the response was not good.
‘Wasn’t he quite witty?’
After trying it several times, it seems that my fun point is a little different from others.
Suhyeon swallowed her bitterness and changed the topic calmly.
I gained the power to make people laugh even at content that was obviously not funny, but it was somehow useless.
* * *
While filming ‘Soul Doctor’ continued, Soo-hyeon left the scene and headed to the dentist.
Because his manager, Soo-yeol, made a reservation in advance and set the time, he went straight into the treatment room without having to wait.
Fortunately, since there was bleeding and pain caused by a foreign object stuck between the teeth, the treatment ended with the removal of the foreign object.
“I don’t have any cavities. “I guess you take good care of it.”
“yes. “Because I tend to clean it often.”
“Usually, if you have that kind of habit, your gums tend to wear out, but your teeth and gum health are also very good.”
“thank you.”
The doctor who checked Soo-hyeon’s teeth complimented him, saying that the handsome man had pretty teeth as well.
The admiration that the even teeth were model-level made the listener proud.
‘As expected, it was rewarding to take care of my baby from the time he lost his baby teeth.’
Su-hyeon, who returned to her younger self, took care to ensure that her primary teeth did not block the growth of her permanent teeth and that her dentition was completed evenly.
There was one dark story related to attracting children, but that was not important.
“Ah, the actor is here. “I heard you made an appointment at the hospital. Are you okay?”
“I had a slight problem, so I went to an outpatient clinic, but it wasn’t a big deal.”
“thank god.”
“How far did the filming go?”
“At that moment, actor Park Jun-woo finished filming and was in the process of changing the dummy. “The other actors were leaving after a 30-minute break.”
When Soo-hyun returned from treatment and asked about the filming process, the AD explained the situation.
Except for a few re-shoots due to NG, there was no incident.
“Did you finish your work well, actor?”
“yes. thank you.”
“Ah, the actor is here. “I’m going to rest for another 20 minutes now.”
“yes.”
Every time Suhyeon passed by, staff members who made eye contact with him asked how he was doing.
Those who knew they had stopped by the hospital building expressed slight concern, and some reported the current situation.
It was a situation where many people were talking about similar topics, which could be annoying, but Soohyun accepted what they said one by one.
He was doing that because he was worried about me, but it was good if he felt good, there was no reason to be bad.
“Actor! You’re finally back! Ugh, my makeup is gone because of the mask…! “I’ll touch it right away!”
“please.”
Jeongwon, who was waiting next to Suhyeon’s chair, found him and quickly opened the makeup case and took out the tools.
Her hands patting his face were quick yet meticulous.
“I’ll put a hat on you! wait a minute!”
She meticulously transformed Su-hyeon into ‘Seok-hyeon’ and left him with a satisfied expression.
As always, Suhyeon also smiled faintly at the perfect change.
“I will use the mask later when filming begins.”
“yes!”
“Actor, the director is calling you.”
“yes. thank you.”
After meeting with the PD and briefing on the next filming scene, Soo-hyun felt bored as there were still 10 minutes left.
Time, which normally wouldn’t be a big deal, passed a little slowly when I had to wait.
‘Shall we go look for Soyoung or Lee Ho?’
Thinking of the two actors who had not yet returned to the scene, Su-hyeon stood up.
Since I was close with the actors on set, the way to find them wasn’t awkward.
‘Where is it? Filming is starting soon.’
Su-hyeon, who was walking around asking the staff around her, expressed her confusion when the two did not appear even after walking down the hallway for a long time.
Because it was a new, unprepared building, there were still few people, and the lighting was dark, so it was somewhat eerie.
‘Am I here in the wrong place? Should I go back first?’
After checking the time, Su-hyeon paused for a moment in a troubled mood.
I felt like I would be late for filming if I continued like this, so it was difficult to look for it anymore.
‘Our paths may have diverged. Let’s go back first.’
Filming takes priority over building friendships.
Su-hyeon, who quickly came to a conclusion, was about to turn around when he heard a voice from across the hallway.
Although I couldn’t hear the content, it was clearly Soyoung’s voice.
‘Oh, I guess I’m in the right place.’
Feeling happy, Suhyun walked down the hallway at a fast pace.
Contrary to Su-hyeon’s mood, there was a sharp tone in the voice and atmosphere.
‘Are they fighting…?’
I can feel the anger in the voice of the man criticizing me.
Suhyeon accelerated his steps at the familiar voice and strangely ominous feeling.
The closer I got, the more clearly I could hear the urging voice.
“Soyoung, if you do things this way, you still can’t get rid of the rookie label.”
“that.”
“When my senior says, ‘Yes.’ “Where can I talk back?”
“….”
“Did I say something wrong? “You make people strange?”
“….”
It’s not unusual to see someone being scolded one-sidedly.
Su-hyeon turned the corner and stopped when she saw Lee Ho with his arms crossed and frowning, and So-young with her head bowed.
As I roughly understood the situation, my eyebrows narrowed.
‘It seems like they are being abusive to their juniors who are doing well.’
The acting industry had a very strict standard-bearing culture.
Even though they were the same age, the person who debuted first was a senior, and even if their popularity waned, they showed a polite attitude toward the person who debuted first.
It was a respect for those who have survived for a long time in a difficult industry.
However, it was not the case that there were people who often showed jealousy toward successful juniors and tried to step on them from an early age.
‘The line between discipline and bullying is blurred…’
At first glance, it’s bullying, but when Su-hyeon starts to say that it was a bitter comment for his junior, Su-hyeon, who intervened, becomes embarrassed.
Still, just as she was thinking about pretending not to notice since filming was about to take place, Lee Ho put his arm around Soyoung’s shoulder with a friendly face.
Soyoung’s trembling shoulders were pitiful.
“This is all advice to do well.”
That moment.
Soo-hyeon approached without delay and grabbed Lee Ho’s arm.
