Chapter 60 The Shameless Trial

At first glance, the house was full of antique furniture. Even expensive-looking old pottery, tables, and wardrobes were all expensive items. It was a high-end apartment that most people couldn’t even afford a house.

A total of four people were sitting at the table and eating.

It was Judge Kang Gwan-wook who stood up first. Judge Kang Gwan-wook poured the coffee beans from the roasting machine into the living room, put down the mug, and opened the newspaper.

Her wife also finished eating and went out into the living room with her cup of coffee.

“Did you say there is a trial related to orthognathic surgery today?”

“right.”

“There was a self-immolation a while ago, and these days there are a lot of talk… … I can understand the minds of those people… … .”

“Uh-huh, this guy.”

Judge Kang Gwan-wook frowned at his wife’s pitiful voice and put down his newspaper for a while.

“Didn’t everyone tell you that law and emotion should not be related? And before the trial, it’s not good to talk like that.”

“Yes, I am sorry. honey.”

As she knew his character well, she nodded her head and picked up the teacup. Now, my daughter, who is now in high school, has gone out with her backpack, and her son, who is going to be in the military soon, will enter the room and think about what to do and play today.

Judge Kang Gwan-wook held up his teacup and sighed.

Three days ago, lawyer Ko Doo-gil came to visit. The friendship between the two was quite strong.

The late Doo-gil was a senior at the Judicial Research and Training Institute, and he was a wonderful senior he trusted and followed while attending the Judicial Research and Training Institute.

Of course, he knows what it must have been like before he reached that level. What he was asked to do now was quite reluctant.

There was still an envelope in his drawer with money his wife didn’t know.

‘I may be criticized for a while, but the medical law itself is very difficult.’

I couldn’t forget the sight of Doo-gil, pouring his drink and sneaking over an envelope. In fact, he did not give a definitive answer, but he did ask.

Also, as Doo-gil Go said, it was a time when his atrocious words were circling, but the choice was ultimately up to him.

Lawyer Ko Doo-gil said that they should listen to their side to some extent in a reasonable way.

At present, the amount offered by the plaintiff was about 70 million won. That was the cost of reoperation and compensation for psychological damage.

However, it was said to be an adult and comfort him at an amount of about 2,000.

The amount doesn’t matter. Whether or not the plaintiff receives the desired amount was the key to winning or losing, and it was also the criterion for judging the presence or absence of side effects from orthognathic surgery. Therefore, in this judgment, Go Doo-gil emphasized that it is important to cut most of the damages claimed by the plaintiff. In that sense, if a judgment is made to pay 20 million won, it would be a complete defeat for the plaintiff.

In addition, Director Lee Min-geun was a famous plastic surgeon in Korea. This time, he was in a situation where complicated things could happen to the plaintiff’s side if he accepted the hand.

Of course, he hasn’t decided yet.

Whose side to take

‘Attorney Kang Tae-hoon… … .’

Judge Kang Gwan-wook’s eyes sank as he raised a teacup and wet his mouth. Judge Kang Gwan-wook had a solid position as a just judge in his own way.

Attorney Tae-Hoon Kang. Because it is that person, Go Doo-gil must be so impatient.

I sincerely hoped there was a variable today. Otherwise, he might end up taking the hand of the late Du-gil himself.

When all the coffee beans were empty, he got up and went to the bedroom. His wife, who had accompanied him, put on her suit top and tied her tie.

“Sunghyun says that he is going to the army soon, so he just plays every day.”

“It’s been a week now, so let’s unwind.”

“What are you doing today?”

“I’m going to visit my family for a while.”

“okay.”

Her wife, who tied her tie, went out. Judge Kang Gwan-wook looked back before taking his step. He sighed and opened his wardrobe.

He took out an envelope from the chest of drawers, put it in his arms, and left the house.

Director Lee Min-geun and lawyer Ko Doo-gil got off the Mercedes-Benz car together. Reporter Lee Soo-ae, who was standing with the cameraman in front of the courthouse, hurriedly approached.

“Hello. This manager.”

“Oh, yes.”

Director Lee Min-geun only lightly bowed down.

“How do you feel about the trial today?”

“Hmm. I assure you that there was nothing wrong with my surgery. After the operation, I checked it, and there were no signs of nerve damage at that time.”

“Do you mean that the patient is trying to hand over the damage caused by his negligence to the hospital?”

“Is that so? Hopefully, a fair judgment will be given.”

Lee Min-geun gave a pretentious smile. At least in Lee Soo-ae’s eyes, it was clearly visible.

The number of reporters was quite large. These days, as side effects of orthognathic surgery continue to rise, people’s attention is focused on the first formal trial as it rises.

Taehyung was the first to arrive. Journalists were banned from entering the courtroom. Only one person was allowed in, reporter Lee Soo-ae.

Naturally, all electronic devices were blocked, and only pens and notebooks were allowed for writing. In other countries, the cameras sometimes run in courts, but in Korea, it was still a closed process.

Tae-Hoon took a small bow to Ko Do-Gil and Lee Min-Geun. Oh Hyun-soo was standing next to Tae-hoon.

“This is true.”

Lee Min-geun licked his tongue and turned his body around. Godu-gil also walked with him.

Seeing them like that, Taehoon swallowed his bitter smile.

The expressions of lawyer Go Doo-gil and Director Lee Min-geun, who will soon be seen, already came to mind.

Before the trial began, the victims of orthognathic surgery who were fighting with Tae-hoon came into the audience to watch the trial and took their seats. It wasn’t just that.

In the audience, there were also a few people who had fought in other hospitals due to orthognathic surgery. This trial was of great interest to the victims of orthognathic surgery and the victims.

They lost, but if they win this trial, hope will shine on them too. Even though they lost now, they can start fighting again by appealing.

Judge Kwan-wook Kang and Judge Bae-seok from the left and right entered the courtroom together. As the ritual proceeded, Judge Kang Gwan-wook carefully looked at Attorney Doo-gil Ko, Director Lee Min-geun, Attorney Tae-hoon Kang and Plaintiff Oh Hyeon-soo, and the other victims who were suffering from side effects of orthognathic surgery sitting in the audience.

Lee Soo-ae’s eyes lit up.

‘But he’s a pretty conscientious judge.’

Although she herself is a journalist, she found out about the judge who was in charge of her, as this article is very important. Judge Kang Gwan-wook was rumored to be an honest judge.

Of course, that honesty means legal honesty.

The trial began.

Go Doo-gil shows the evidence of Gabojeung.

consent for surgery.

It was the most powerful guy.

“As you can see, the consent for surgery clearly specifies the side effects. ‘My operating surgeon is Director Lee Min-geun, and I agree that depending on the condition during the operation, upper jaw (chin tip) plastic surgery may be necessary.’”

Go Doo-gil read down the most important part of the consent for surgery.

“’I have listened to the explanation of the operation, complications, and sequelae from the doctor Lee Min-geun, and I fully understand that irresistible complications that occur after the operation and surgery and that an accidental accident may occur due to my specific constitution. While entrusting medical treatment to the medical staff, I pledge and agree to actively cooperate in surgery and treatment.’ As such, the plaintiff, Hyeon-soo Oh, from the doctor in charge, Mr. It is the fact that I heard the story and signed it.”

Taehyung laughed bitterly.That’s not all. Soo-ae Lee laughed, and Hyun-su Oh also laughed. Go Doo-gil was serious, and inside it was written, “My operating doctor is Director Lee Min-geun.”

In the first place, the effect of this consent for surgery had disappeared from that point on.

However, the defendant, Go Doo-gil and Director Lee Min-geun did not see the smirk that crossed them. It was just that there was a written consent form here, and they were asking what to do.

On the contrary, Director Kang Gwan-wook caught the smile that passed by for a moment.

Seeing their smiles passing simultaneously, he sensed something.

‘You’ll find out later.’

“Also, the current plaintiff has filed a lawsuit less than a year after the operation. In this regard, we present the 3rd certificate of A.B.”

The material that Godu-gil came up with was an article that the swelling, which had not fallen out in two years, disappeared and the nerves in his jaw were revived.

There are many variables in any surgery.

Also, it literally depends on your body type. For some people, the swelling will go away quickly after surgery, and for others, the swelling will go down slowly.

For Oh Hyun-soo, it was a heartbreaking word.

My jaw is twisted, so does this mean that it will come back?

Saliva was dripping from his mouth, and swelling from the double jaw surgery went up to his eye, causing one of his eyes to swell.

A professor at a university hospital, an acquaintance of Tae-hoon, gave the opinion that nerve damage had already occurred.

Of course, Tae-Hoon presented the appropriate data.

“If you look at the data for the second certificate, it is the opinion of Professor Ji-Hoon Jang of the Department of Oral Surgery, Chonbuk National University. According to the report, the optic nerve has already been damaged due to excessive jaw bone cutting. is showing results. Also, even if the swelling goes down after 2 years, it doesn’t mean that the chin will return to its original place. Crucially, double jaw surgery is also a surgery to correct malocclusion. I think the defendant Lee Min-geun knows better about that.”

At Tae-hoon’s point, Director Lee Min-geun spit out an inaudible cough.

“Currently, the upper and lower jaws, that is, the upper and lower molars, are not meshing together. This is proof that the operation itself was not successful.”

“One, sir. The hospital has previously expressed its intention to focus on reoperation and treatment related to him.”

“It will be a problem that the intention to do so is lifting surgery and fat grafting surgery. Dear Judge. What are the most problematic side effects after plastic surgery?”

Taehoon asked the three judges a question. Judge Kang Gwan-wook looked at him without a word.

“It is the fact that when side effects occur after surgery, it is a cold attitude that is completely different from when you first received treatment. In Korea, there is no law related to orthognathic surgery. It means that there are no restrictions such as restraining the amount of jaw bone cutting or not having surgery if there is no malocclusion. That’s why the doctor said that the drug had to be administered, and that the excessively touched jawbone caused damage to the optic nerve.”

“The plaintiff’s attorney, although there is currently a doctor’s opinion, it is presumed that the optic nerve was damaged and the doctor’s negligence was possible.

Ko Doo-gil calmly advised him not to speak. Taehyung nodded his head and sat down.

The fierce battle in court continued.
