[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Heo Midam] Actor Jung Joon showed support for Professor Lee Guk-jong.

On the 13th, Jung Joon posted on his Instagram, "Cheer up. You are not wrong. Professor, you are not wrong. I am just sorry. I apologize. Cheer up #TheMostAwesomeProfessor #ProfessorLeeGukjong #Respect #SupportingFromAfar" along with a screenshot of the MBC 'News Desk' broadcast.

He also posted another message saying, "A true hero. We are not ready to accept this hero. Please let change happen so that we can accept the hero, and our society can become a mature and wonderful Republic of Korea #Praying #CheerUp #TrueHero," along with a photo of Professor Lee Guk-jong.

Earlier that day, MBC 'News Desk' revealed a recording of Yoo Hee-seok, director of Ajou University Medical Center, verbally abusing Professor Lee Guk-jong, head of the Trauma Center at Ajou University Hospital's Gyeonggi Southern Region.

In the recording, Director Yoo shouted at Professor Lee, "Quit it, you XX. Get lost. You XX who are not even human. Do you want to fight me?" to which Professor Lee replied, "No, that's not it."

The problematic recording was reportedly part of a conversation from several years ago, not recent, between Director Yoo and Professor Lee regarding cooperation issues between the trauma center and other departments within the hospital.
