Is Song Yu-geun a failed genius? Or is it a young man to start now?

In SBS 'SBS Special,' which was broadcasted on the night of the 21st, the latest news of a genius boy Song Yu-geun was revealed under the theme of 'Twenty years old,

Song yu-geun released on the day was no longer a boy but a young man. The 180-cm tall tall, well-behaved Song Yoo-geun was ahead of the army.

Understanding Einstein's theory of relativity at the age of six, he was the youngest student in the country, campusing with college students at the age of entry into elementary school. The genius boy who was setting various records with the title of the youngest was not able to go forward anymore. He was not a proud title, but had a painful modifier of plagiarism and failure to obtain a doctorate.

The place where I met 20-year-old Song Yu-geun was Japan. He decided to continue research at the National Observatory of Japan for research. "I am heartbroken, but in my country, I will have anti - whatever I do, so I decided to continue my studies abroad."

Song Yu - Keun 's plagiarism resulted in the dismissal of his advisor and he was unable to obtain a doctorate. It was a problem to write down the part of the advisor's citation. Song Yu - geun was no longer a teacher to be taught and no school to accept him, so he left himself as a researcher of black holes.

Song Yu - geun said, "I think the scholar is speaking in a paper. Since then, Song Yu-geun has traveled abroad, not in Korea, and continued his research. And the results were satisfactory. He is the world's leading astronomical journal, and Song Yu-keun has published his first book as the first author. He was proving himself by passing two papers to two world journals.

Song Yoo-geun is on the 24th of December this year. "I want to go to the army because I want to defend the country," he said. "Why is it strange that I am going to protect my country?"

He showed tremendous talent in his studies and reminded them of the calculus within seven months of memorizing his group. Song Yu-geun, who has been living in school for his head, has always been alone.

Song Yu-geun graduated from elementary school right after the turn of the day, and entered college at super high speed. This was the result of changing the legal policy for the gifted, such as Song Yu-geun. After that, Song Yu-keun was attracted to the excessive attention of entertainer class.

The voices of concern were also high. However, Song Yu-geun's parents also had a problem. His mother said, "Yoo-geun has made all the way to go, and I think if Yu-geun's way of seeing the child is changed, it will be easier for Yu-geun to go. "He said.

"It was really hard for me to walk around," he said. And his worries deepened in college life. He said, "I was sorry I could not get close to enjoying and enjoying science." He explained why he ended his college life in two years.

"I do not think 12 years of elementary and junior high school is necessary for watching the night sky," said Song Yu-keun, saying, "I feel sorry for not being able to live in school. He added, "I am not a person who can not fit anywhere, but a person who can fit anywhere."

Song Yu-geun went on a journey to study the night sky he liked since childhood. Song Yu-geun, who came to the Korean astronomical research institute, devoted himself to research. But people were more interested in his title. There was a controversy over plagiarism in the thesis, and everyone was worried about him, but Song Yu-geun caught up.

He said, "I want to jump over Yoon's Song Yoo-geun, I am just going to study because he likes the night sky and stars." He explained why he was able to continue his research after failing to obtain his doctorate.

But now he had nothing easy. Research without an advisor has also become a barrier. Nevertheless, Song Yu-geun did not stop challenging even a small chance. Song Yu-geun, who was happy to get a chance to present at a small seminar, was unable to conceal his sudden cancellation notice.

Songyoung's mother, who saw this, shed tears. "I think it is because I think about all the things that have happened in the past. Sometimes I feel sick every time I feel sick." His mother said, "Sometimes when I ask if I should stop, the child says that he has not seen Saturn yet." It seems like parents' role is to support the child as a parent. "

Now he is concentrating on new research with Professor Emeritus Okamoto who created the myth of "Okamoto spin-off". He is also a recommender to the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan as a collaborator. Professor Okamoto said, "I think it is negative in Korea to destroy enough young people, and if I need psychological and academic support, I will do my best."

Song Yu - geun said, "We have to do military service this winter. We aim to complete two or more papers before enlistment."

80 scholars and 20 scholars recognized each other through the stars. An adult who grabbed the hand of a young man who has never looked back. The young man who followed the black hole was now with the Norse. Song Yoo-geun told Professor Okamoto: "In Korea, it was hard to find a mentor or a colleague. I am so grateful, and the words" thank you "in Korean have a meaning of respect.

After the controversy of plagiarism, it took three years of harsh time, and the resident registration card received after two papers in both world journals were passed. Song Yoo-geun said, "I have been having a ceremony for the past three years, and now I feel like I have become a sincere adult after the ceremony."

Finally, he said, "I want to make my military life one of the happiest moments of my life," he said.
