Chapter 328

“You’ll see when you come to Korea.”

Yoo-hyun smiled and looked at the monitor.

There was a news article on the screen.

<Korea to register as a candidate for hosting the G20 in 2010.>

The same thing that happened in the past was happening now.

***

After a brief escapade in Insadong, the atmosphere in the department changed subtly.

He could feel it from the morning commute.

Of course, Jang Jun Sik greeted him as usual, stiffly.

“Good morning.”

“Jun Sik, good morning. You came early.”

Lee Chan Ho, the assistant manager, received his greeting warmly.

It was a huge improvement compared to the past when he wouldn’t even make eye contact.

Not only Lee Chan Ho, but also other department members casually chatted with Jang Jun Sik.

Even Hwang Dong Sik, the assistant manager who never approached him first, asked him how he was doing.

“Jun Sik, did you work overtime again that day?”

“Yes. I did.”

Kim Young Gil, the section chief, showed him the photo he took that day.

“Jun Sik, you looked good in the photo. Did you see it?”

“Yes. I saw it.”

But Jang Jun Sik was still rigid.

He seemed to cling to his work more, as if he was afraid of people coming closer.

He was clearly uncomfortable with human relationships.

Tadadadadak.

Jang Jun Sik, who had his nose on the monitor, typed on the keyboard without a break.

Yoo-hyun shook his head as he watched him.

A day of adventure didn’t change Jang Jun Sik, but Yoo-hyun wasn’t impatient.

He knew it was part of the process of change.

So he lived as usual, leisurely.

He met people and talked to them, he called here and there and communicated.

He was on the phone right now, too.

The caller was Jung In Wook, the head of Ultra High Definition TF.

He took the initiative and told him about the progress of the project.

-We’re about to get the panel made from the existing LCD line. Did you get the data I sent you?

“Yes. I saw it.”

-And we also filed a patent for...

He even told him what kind of patent they were applying for.

It was like he didn’t have to do anything as a project manager.

He was grateful and overreacted.

“Really? That’s great.”

-It seems to be going well, but it’s not easy.

“Hey, why are you being so weak? It doesn’t suit you.”

-People are too interested. I’m so stressed out.

That was true.

It was a project that the business director himself was interested in.

From the perspective of a rookie team leader, it was very burdensome.

Yoo-hyun sincerely said a word to him.

“The leader has to be stressed and tired so that the people below can be comfortable. So you can work harder.”

-Ah! Don’t say that.

“I’m not kidding. I’m serious.”

-I know. But hearing that from you makes me feel worse. It feels like I’m standing in front of my boss.

Jung In Wook complained with his voice full of emotion. Yoo-hyun teased him as if he was next to him.

“Hey, you like it.”

-Kid. I love it. Are you done? Are you done?

Jung In Wook’s angry voice came out loud and clear.

He laughed so hard that he could imagine his crumpled expression vividly.

“Hahahaha!”

He laughed so loudly that people around him looked at him one by one.

Jang Jun Sik looked at Yoo-hyun and said, stopping his typing.

He didn’t look at Yoo-hyun’s eyes, but at the empty space.

He still had the aftermath of being taken to Insadong.

“What do you know about the meeting?”

“I don’t know.”

Jang Jun Sik shook his head and Yoo-hyun didn’t waste time and got to the point.

“It’s a meeting in the VIP meeting room.”

“VIP meeting room?”

“Yes. On the 15th floor.”

“Really? I don’t think I can attend.”

“Your name is on the reservation list. Let’s go.”

Yoo-hyun left him a word and turned around, but Jang Jun Sik was stunned.

He had been working for a year, but it was his first time to enter the VIP meeting room.

Jang Jun Sik came to his senses and followed Yoo-hyun with his stuff.

A moment later.

Yoo-hyun went up to the 15th floor and checked his identity with the guide, then moved to the VIP meeting room.

The marble floor and luxurious wall materials gave a different feeling from other floors.

Jang Jun Sik followed Yoo-hyun with a nervous expression.

The guide in front of the meeting room kindly said,

“Mr. Han, this is the meeting room.”

“Thank you.”

Kkiiik.

As soon as the meeting room door opened, the inside scenery came into Yoo-hyun’s eyes.

They were obviously high-ranking people gathered there.

They all had stiff expressions, as if the meeting atmosphere wasn’t very good.

Then, a woman sitting at the head of the meeting room stood up from her seat.

Ttoktokttoktok.

She approached Yoo-hyun and took off her trademark white gloves and reached out her hand.

“Steve, long time no see.”

“Yes, Laura. How have you been?”

Yoo-hyun held her hand and asked her how she was doing in German. Laura Parker received his words pleasantly.

“Of course. I’m sorry for calling you in so suddenly.”

“Not at all. I was hoping you would call me.”

“Really? Then I should have called you sooner.”

Even if they didn’t know German, they could guess their friendly relationship from the atmosphere.

The people who were in an ice-cold mood just before just blinked their eyes.

Jang Jun Sik, who hadn’t grasped the situation yet, was just bewildered.

Thunk.

Yoo-hyun sat down and checked the posture of the participants, Laura Parker’s gaze, the data on the screen, and the position of the presenter. He quickly grasped the situation.

Click.

Jo Sung Eun, the deputy director of the promotion team at the mobile phone division who exchanged eye contact with Yoo-hyun, put up data on the screen.

“Then I’ll continue with my presentation. This is about the channel watch we’re reviewing...”

Regardless of the presentation, Laura Parker looked at Yoo-hyun with more trust in her eyes.

On the other hand, Jang Jun Sik was unfamiliar with everything that was happening here.

‘She was really something...’

When he was in marketing team before, Jang Jun Sik had met Jo Sung Eun, the deputy director.

Even Seong Woong Jin, the deputy director who used to brag in front of him, was completely a chick who ate honey.

He thought it would be the same this time, but what?

It was as if the roles of the master and the servant were reversed.

Before Jang Jun Sik could come to his senses, Jo Sung Eun’s presentation was over.

Laura Parker ignored everyone else and asked Yoo-hyun first.

“What do you think, Steve?”

“To be honest, I like the design concept better than any other digital watch I’ve seen.”

“That’s because your opinion was included last time.”

“That was just the base. If you look at the finishing touches and the strap replacement parts...”

Yoo-hyun talked about the whole product, not just the LCD parts.

He saw a smile on Laura Parker’s lips, who had been standing still after receiving the report.

“As expected. You see right through it.”

“I can tell you put a lot of effort into it. But to increase the practicality, you should change the strap replacement part...”

Yoo-hyun added his idea and pointed out the changes.
