From Cloning to Cunning

Suspicion prevails over Dr. Hwang’s cloning paper. Many Korean scientists rise up and ask to verify his research data published in the journal Science. Although their rhetoric is full of concerns about the credibility of the Korean science society, reading between the lines reveals that what is eating them most is this “groundless” anxiety over their careers that further delays of investigation, or being silent about the issue, will either way hamper their reputations to the outside world.

Figure of speech, but all in one voice, some media and a majority of scientists alike, seem to already know the truth, and the truth is that Dr. Hwang denies again admitting his fabrication of the cloning research paper. The media and several online journals are impatiently waiting to see the result. Impatient, because they already know the whole story except one part of it. Next time, they will launch another, much BIGGER and more devasting round of investigation, whose title will be: Hwang-Gate – who is behind the fraud this world-famous "cunning" expert committed?
