Jin Cheon-Hee (진천희 Jin-Cheon-Hui) is the protagonist of Doctor, Live Again who died from a civil war attack and transmigrated into the novel he finished reading, the Supreme Heavenly Demon. After displaying his impressive 'other-worldly' surgery skills, he is taken in by the White Dragon Godly Doctor Jaegal Lin, and becomes his disciple as well as the successor of the White Dragon Clinic.
Appearance[]
Before his transmigration, Jin Cheonhee has short unkempt hair and dark grey eyes. He wears rectangular glasses and is seen wearing a surgeon outfit underneath his lab coat.
After his transmigration, he inhabits the body of a young child who has long brown hair tied into a bun and brown eyes. Though, the webtoon depicts him having grey eyes instead. He had a scrawny body that may have hinted the body he inhabits was neglected, though under the care of his master does he grow more fat. After undergoing metamorphosis, his physique has become more muscular and he has grown slightly taller than the average person of his age. He's told on various occasions that he has a handsome face, something he himself is proud of.[1] Each time he uses the martial arts of the Jaegal Clan, his eyes transform into the same blue hue as his master's. This change becomes permanent due to the incessant employment of the art. Eun Wang-ya described those blue eyes as precious jade[2], most are scared of it due to its meaning.
Following his apprenticeship under the White Dragon Godly Doctor, he now tends to wear a yellow and turquoise-colored robe, with a white robe and short sleeves worn above it. Additionally, his hair has grown longer since he became a disciple.
In the work, he is described as a handsome man with an outstanding appearance that regardless of his gender. When he walks down the street, people blush because of his unique atmosphere and beauty, and the Sapa mentioned that they would kidnaps him and gives him as a gift to high-ranking officials due to his appearance.
Overall, he is a beautiful person with a gentle and warm impression, and has neat facial features like a celestial being.Official Moonlight Beauty
He is well aware of this fact and actively uses his appearance, such as deliberately becoming bait or dressing up as a woman when infiltrating. When he was trying to seduce Yooho.
He is called a poisonous mushroom in White dragon clinic, which is famous for poisoned many handsome men and beautiful women because of his looks. There are more than a few members who fell in love for him the first time because of his looks and personality, even though they knew they would fail if they fell in love. There are even members who cried because they were not invited even though they were prepared to go to the research center.
He is drawn with brown hair on the cover, and according to the description in the work, he has brown eyes.
Backstory[]
He was raised in an orphanage, but soon after his adoptive parents adopted him, they had a child and abandoned him. Since then, he has stopped expecting much from people, and being abandoned has left him with trauma. At school, he was often accused of being a thief because he was an orphan, and he was bullied because he was smaller than his peers. He didn't want to be abandoned, so he wanted to be a "necessary child" and did their homework for them or watered their plants.
After that, he became a doctor and went to do medical service, but the place he went to got caught up in a civil war and he was shot and died instead of a child.
Personality[]
Due to spending most of his time dedicated to work in his previous life, Jin Cheonhee mainly focuses on saving patients, without expecting anything in return and does not care about his patient's origins or the faction they are part of.[3] This type of mindset is rather odd to most Jianghu doctors, making him draw the interests of powerful figures, namely Jaegal Lin, Pung Juha, etc.
He's a pacifist through and through, and is rather enthusiastic about it, making others finding him as insane. He's later on known to be crazy for saving anyone he comes across injured[4], which can be reflected in his eyes that is full of motivation, said to be a terrifying look than a madman.[5]
As a modern citizen, Jin Cheonhee finds himself struggling to adapt in a world where killing their opponents is the norm, and has mainly avoided needlessly killing his opponents in favor of negotiating first. Especially since the world is set in Murim, he is unable to comprehend high-ranking nobles or the etiquette they follow.[6]
As a doctor, he follows the idea that he cannot kill his opponent, but will crush their bones to rend them immovable. He's shown to adore kids and has a hard time turning them down when they ask for help. He has an indomitable will, and whenever he sets a goal, he wastes no time to complete it, even going so far as to overwork himself that causes those around him to worry. He unconsciously strives for perfection, where Wang Gakyeon would later comment on how he tries too hard to make everything perfect, despite doing well enough as it is.[7]
Given that the Murim world lacks modern technology, Jin Cheonhee exudes a child-like enthusiasm over his ideas and inventions, giddying and laughing at every successful product he's able to create as well as replicating chemical processes (such as nitrogen fixation) that would otherwise be impossible. His frequent expressions of maniacal joy in light of his creations often lead to outsiders believing he is mentally unstable, hence he becomes very well-known for this behaviour leading him to be nicknamed as the 'All-Encompassing Madman'. However, those who have been around him long enough would simply attribute his behaviour to his standard good mood.[8]
He relishes the life he has transmigrated into, filled with gratitude for his encounter with his master and sworn brothers. The White Dragon Clinic has become a beloved home which he cherishes.[9]
