Professor Jung Min-seok of the Department of Anatomy at Ajou University School of Medicine, famous as a’cartoonist doctor’, posted a post boasting that his son became an assistant professor, and was engulfed in controversy.
Professor Jeong said on his Twitter on the 1st, “I don’t talk about my family, but I’ll do it today. I’m proud of this story. My son (Jeong Beom-seon) has become an assistant professor in the anatomy class of Wonju University, Yonsei University from today.”
Professor Jeong said of his son, “After graduating from Soonchunhyang University medical school, he received a medical doctorate from Ajou University medical school with my help.” “My son was born in September 1989, so he became an assistant professor at the age of 31.”
“My son is the co-author of the neuroanatomy textbooks I always talk about,” he said. “Usually people try to become famous in the world after becoming an assistant professor, associate professor, or full professor, but my son was renowned in the world before becoming an assistant professor.” Explained.

Professor Jeong’s remarks, reminiscent of’dad’s chance’, are quickly becoming controversial as they spread to social media and internet communities. One netizen said, “Are you proud of having a doctorate in medicine with the help of your father and posting a son as a co-author in your book?”
The suspicion is also supported by the fact that his son, Beomseon, has been listed as the’first author’ in many of his father’s thesis.
One Twitter user pointed out that “out of the 34 journal articles of Jung Beom-seon searched in RISS (Academic Research Information Service), there are 20 articles co-authored with Jung Min-suk.” Among the papers on Professor Chung’s homepage, many of the first authors also have’Chung BS’, which is believed to be his son Jeong Beom-seon. As the controversy spreads, Professor Jeong’s’son’s pride’ has been deleted.
This controversy also raised suspicion that Professor Jeong is’following’ the prostitution account on Twitter. Professor Jeong was following 10 accounts, and one of these accounts was’Minseok Jung’, whose name matched. There were only two accounts that the account followed, and one of them was Professor Jeong. This account, which is suspected to be Professor Jeong’s’sub-account’, followed 50 accounts, including Professor Jeong, and most of them were accounts that advertised meeting conditions and prostitution.
In response, a netizen asked in a comment, “Is both accounts correct?” Professor Jeong stopped following the account immediately after the question came up.

However, the controversy also spread to his son. On social media such as Twitter, suspicion arose that his son, Jung Beom-seon, has published cartoons criticizing President Moon Jae-in and the government’s medical policy in’DC Inside.
In the DC Inside Cartoon Series Gallery, there are several cartoons created by an author named’Jeong Beom-seon’, most of which criticize the government’s medical policy such as the establishment of a public medical school.
In particular, the author criticized the government’s policy of public medical school in a cartoon saying’Medical school, now let’s go with parents easily’ and argued that if “parents have a big place in politics or civic groups”, you can easily become a doctor. . The artist’s cartoons were also suddenly deleted on the day when suspicion spreads.
On the other hand, Professor Jung Min-seok is a well-known character for learning anatomy cartoons that can be easily understood. The representative cartoon’Haerangi, Malangi’ (English version Anna & Tommy) was also published in the February 2017 issue of the Scientific Citation Index Expansion (SCIE) journal’Anatomy Science Education’ (ASE).
According to a report by the Chosun Ilbo in 2015, his son, Beomseon, graduated from medical school and entered the graduate school of Ajou University medical school, and since 2014, he has walked on the path of an anatomy in his father’s research institute. Mr. Sailing also helped his father work on cartoons at the institute.
