T
he Second Teyangin (Soyanginesque Teyangin)
The second teyangin has an organ structure with the lungs as the largest organs, pancreas second largest, kidneys relatively small, and liver the smallest. This cam be indicated as lungs > pancreas > kidneys > liver.

This can be expressed as follows, according to Lee Jema's organ theory, attributing the organs to the four jiaos.

Largest: upper jiao: lung group (lungs, esophagus, tongue, ears, brain, skin).
                                                                 i
Relatively large: upper middle jiao: pancreas group (pancreas, stomach, breast, eyes, spine, muscles).
                                                                 
i
 
Relatively small: lower jiao: kidney group (kidneys, large intestine, sex organs, mouth, bladder, bones).     
                                                                 
i
Smallest: lower middle jiao: liver group (liver, small intestine, navel, nose, waist, hypodermic tissues).

                         Illustration. Organ structure of the second teyangin

The lungs are the largest organs in the second teyangin, so the upper jiao, the lung group (lungs, esophagus, tongue, ears, brain, skin) is the most developed. Pancreas follows as the relatively large organ, so the upper middle jiao, the pancreas group (pancreas, stomach, breast, eyes, spine, muscles) is well developed. Kidneys are relatively small, so the lower jiao, the kidney group (kidneys, large intestine, sex organs, mouth, bladder, bones) is not well developed. The smallest organ is the liver, so the lower middle jiao, the liver group (liver, small intestine, navel, nose, waist, hypodermic tissues) is least developed.

Illustration. Body shape of the second teyangin

The first and second teyangins both have the lungs as largest organs and liver as the smallest, but they are still different in their external body shape, because the relative sizes of the two middle organs, pancreas and kidney, are different.

It is important that, although both have the organ structure 'lungs > liver', the first teyangin is characterized by the largest lungs, while the second teyangin is characterized by the smallest liver. In other words, the first teyangin is a constitution caused by lungs that are too large, while the second teyangin is a constitution caused by a liver that is too small.

If these constitutions somehow become ill, the large lungs of the first teyangin become stronger and the main cure is to adjust those strengthened lungs. In the case of the second teyangin, the small liver will become even weaker, and the main cure is to adjust that weakened liver.

This can be easily expressed as below.

Above: Constitution with lungs that are too large: the first teyangin
Below: Constitution with liver that is too small: the second teyangin

Lungs

kidneys

pancreas

liver

As seen above, although the first teyangin has the lungs as the largest organs same as the second teyangin, the two lungs cannot be put into the same vertical column and regarded as equally large. It is evident, that the first teyangin's lungs are larger.

Although the second teyangin has the liver as the smallest organ, same as the first teyangin, the two livers cannot be put into the same vertical column and regarded as equally small. It is evident, that the second teyangin's liver is smaller.

By organ structure, the second teyangin (lungs > pancreas > kidneys > liver) is the opposite of the second teumin (liver > kidneys > pancreas > lungs). They have various characteristics that are opposites.

It is important, that even though the difference is small, the second teyangin hardly puts on extra weight, same as the first teyangin. That is strange, because the second teyangin should be prone to becoming fat as the opposite of the second teumin, who almost can't become overweight. In the organ structure of the second teyangin the pancreas is the second largest organ, so we could think that his good digestion would make him fat.
But to become corpulent one must have from birth either the pancreas as the largest organ, like the first soyangin, or at the same time have large liver and pancreas like the first teumin.
Even though the second teyangin's pancreas is large, it isn't the largest organ like that of the first soyangin. Besides, the second teyangin's liver is the smallest organ. Therefore the second teyangin doesn't become fat.

In summary, teyangin doesn't become fat, neither the first nor the second teyangin; among corpulent people you won't find teyangins.
Some scientists attribute the teyangin's not being corpulent also to his vigorous mental activity due to his well developed brain.

The first teyangin from birth has a strong body and is resilient against illness, but the second teyangin has a relatively weaker body.
The second teyangin is characterized by its smallest liver and must not drink much alcohol, but there are those who drink too much.

The second teyangin can be afflicted with the unique ailment in which the legs weaken without visible cause, and in a serious case become thinner little by little until they become useless. This is because his weak spine can't smoothly deliver energy to the legs.

Because of his large pancreas he can eat and digest well anything, but greasy foods put an undue burden on his weak liver. So for his health meat is not good, and vegetables are good.
He is progressive and decisive and begins things without fear. He depends more on inspiration of the moment or intuition than on detailed anticipatory preparation; therefore he often fails. Nevertheless, he doesn't much regret it.

He has a strong will and hardly listens to others. Through acting on such strong will, he can become either a hero or be ignored by society.

Teyangin tends to deny the real world and endlessly seeks a better future. He is radical and wants reform. He has an idealistic or revolutionist temperament.

He speaks well either in private or before the public. Career is important to him and he is power hungry. He is quite interested in politics. Indeed many are outstanding in that field.

He makes friends easily and is not offended by them. He acts freely without thinking about it.
His mental activity is very vigorous and he has many immediate thoughts and ideas. But sometimes due to lack of fulfillment his ideas remain only ideas or fall into other's possession.

The second teyangin has small kidneys so a woman's uterus is not well developed. She can be sterile or not fertile.
Because of his small liver and kidneys the second teyangin has a weak lower body, and therefore likes to sit leaning against something or lie down and can't remain sitting, standing or walking for long.
Generally the second teyangin has a large head because of the well developed brain and has brilliant eyes due to the large pancreas.

Teyangins from birth have healthy bodies and seldom become ill. The first teyangin has a stronger body than the second teyangin. However, if they do become ill, medicine, either chemical or herbal, will not work well or may even be limited to side effects.

They like fresh and simple foods. If they eat salty or hot spicy foods for a long time, the stomach will be injured and they'll easily suffer indigestion, spasms of the esophagus, or esophagostenosis.
Lee Jema says that if teyangin perfects his personality, he becomes a contributor to the human race; otherwise he becomes the most ignoble fiend.

Note: Useful and harmful foods for the second teyangin are the same as for the first teyangin.

Examples of the second teyangin:
Lenin, Picasso, Napoleon, Beethoven
