After I posted Father Devine Kitchen story yesterday, I felt the story somewhat humiliating.
Somewhat too much for me to leave on public space & re-review on and off.
I elected to delete it in spite of nice comments from two 선배님. and keep it in my personal file.
My apologies to Dr Lee HJ & Lee B B and Web Master.
First couple of years in US were difficult for me and probably for most of us.
PS: I had fond memories of learning ,next few years in Philadelphia, including 2 rotations under
under C.E. Koop, a Giant in pediatric surgery history and later Surgeon General.

Dr. Choh,
Regret to learn you feel differently but you shouldn't take it as a humilating experience at all but rather a unique experience no one had.
I'd rather feel proud of you to share such painful(?) - now you could laugh!- event with friends. And wish you to share more with friends to ease its burdening in your unconscious level like we do!
Indeed, it was very helpful for me to learn other roommates got same if not similar traumatic experiences through homecoming days/visit to Richmond and ease of much of angers in my unconscious level. Now sadly most of senior members of Humera Society are gone if not devastated with senile dementia so that we don't have much shoulders to share to cry on any longer.
Hope you change your perception and open up more memories to ease off the painful humiliating feeling!
Have a safe trip home and enjoy the challenge.
With warm regards,
BB Lee
P.S. Good to know you had such unique chance to rotate to the Childrens to learn from legendary CE Koop. Along the period you were at Childrens, my former roommate Jack Templeton Jr went up to study more under CE Koop and later he did the famous Siamese twin separation surgery to have become a world famous pediatric surgeon. The reason I still remember Jack Templeton so vividly was Jack did not hesitate to defend me- he was one year ahead of me through MCV surgery program- whenever anyone criticizes me (indeed, many felt disgusted to see David Hume waived the unwritten rule to accept me, one damn foreigner of FMG origin ruining the image/fame of MCV surgery program so that quite a few guys bullied me openly- even one guy kicked me to my shinbone under the OR table to bleed leaving the scar till now). He always warned the group NOT to have a prejudisce against BB Lee as FMG whenever he had a chance, which I learned from other roommates. Anyhow, Jack got married one girl, Pina, a niece of Italian pizza house owner near to the hospital at Richmond who became a pediatric anesthesiologist, and took us often to feed the pizza till he left for Philly. But I didn't know Jack was the heir of such worldly famous Templeton Investment Foundation till many years later -he eventually quit the surgeon's job at Philly Childrens to succeed his father - because he never showed up how rich he is while we worked together. He succeeded the philanthropic service from his father, I beleive he donated 3 billion dollars for this service till he passed away a few years ago.
