Chapter 529. The traitor’s monster
father?
is that guy?
Hyeon-soo and Ye-rin don’t seem to know each other well.
It’s not a well-known face in society, but I certainly knew it.
The man was the owner of one of the three major newspapers that control public opinion in Korea.
At the same time, he was also the chairman of JBBC Group, a comprehensive programming channel that opened at the end of 2011.
The name is…..
“Nice to meet you all. I say that Arin is Kang Joong-hyun, who will become a father.”
sure he was right
Contrary to his round impression, he was a businessman whose insides could not be understood.
They were a brother-in-law with the sister-in-law of Im Seong-cheol, the current chairman of Ohjung Group, as his wife.
Not only the connections, but the family members were all great.
Both brothers and sisters were presidents of companies under the Joongbu Group.
“Dad, what’s going on here at this hour? Let’s just say I’m busy today.”
Arin sunbaenim appeared again.
Come to think of it, Chairman Kang Joong-hyun, who had a round impression, saw Arin senior’s face.
Now, the one axis that I was guessing was completed.
There was a reason I was close to senior Son Yu-ri since childhood.
Joongbu Ilbo chairman and Li & Chang law firm got along well.
They were the major shareholders of the upper class in Korea.
The Joongbu Ilbo loses half a report to the Cho Kuk Ilbo.
It was clear that politics was part of vested interests.
Joongbu Ilbo and JBBC, which will open in the future, have very different atmospheres.
And JBBC will play a big role in purifying social problems in the future society.
“I postponed all the meetings to congratulate my beloved daughter on entering the training center.”
Chairman Kang Joong-hyun looks at Kang A-rin with lovely eyes.
“Uhehe~ After all, my dad!”
The source of Arin sunbaenim’s aegyo was his father.
The conversation between the father and daughter was so sweet that it tickled my ears.
“By the way, is it still before lunch? Thanks to our daughter, I became a proud parent, so I have to repay the favor.”
“Oh Dad, did you hear that?”
“Then I was very happy to hear from you in the back seat. And I also wanted to be my daughter. My daughter is even worried about her father’s blood sugar after he left without breakfast.”
“…..”
Arin’s face turned red.
“Kick…..”
“Keukheop.”
Senior Yerin and Hyeonsu covered their mouths with their hands and suppressed laughter.
Then Chairman Kang Joong-hyun saw me.
Pababat.
Eyes met.
“Are you Jang Tae-san’s soldier?”
“nice to see you. President.”
“Do you know me?”
“of course.”
Chairman Kang Joong-Hyun stretched out his hand to me.
We shook hands politely.
Kwak.
The grip I felt in my hand was no joke.
What’s wrong with this old man’s atmosphere?
eyes met again.
Chairman Kang Joong-hyun’s eyes were coldly scanning me.
***
“Thank you very much. President.”
“haha. What is the president? Since our Arin is a junior, call him father. And aren’t they the same last names as us?”
“I will serve you like my father!”
Kang Hyeon-soo smiled broadly and responded vigorously to Chairman Kang Joong-hyun’s words.
A high-end Japanese restaurant in a two-story building located near the Judicial Research and Training Institute.
I was guided to a special room as if I had made a reservation in advance.
Kang Joong-hyeon postponed his busy schedule to congratulate his daughter, Kang A-rin, on entering the training center.
Although he was brilliant enough to enter the law department at Korea University, he did not expect to pass the bar exam so easily.
It was a war between geniuses who fly and grow.
I expected it to take at least two more years.
However, he passed the judicial exam.
It was also top notch.
Not only Chairman Lim Seong-cheol, but also the presidents and presidents of other conglomerates have been congratulating.
As a father, I felt really good.
Recently, there has been no such slope in the house.
Chairman Kang Joong-hyun and the entire group have been busy inside and out these days.
It was selected for the final episode, but public opinion was not good.
Ahead of the opening in November, we had to hire new staff and find out the direction the broadcasting would go in the future.
Unlike Cho Kuk or Dongseo Ilbo, which are clearly the color of the ruling party, I wanted to try something different.
It was my dream to throw off the name of pro-Japanese Jo Jung-dong.
Newspapers had a line that was held from generation to generation and could not be touched.
Even as the chairman, it was not a part that could be touched carelessly.
Starting with the editor-in-chief, all the high-ranking staff of weekly and editorial board members were entangled like a spider’s web with the government or other companies.
If you touch it, other businesses will be hit and it will be dangerous.
The only one that was starting now was the lack of external pressure and politics.
He was recruiting celebrities for behind-the-scenes work.
I wanted to succeed by grabbing viewership ratings at once.
Chairman Kang Joong-hyun dreams of a future that is different from the existing broadcasting channels that are indolent and afraid of change.
In the midst of being busy every minute, I took a break and attended this place.
‘The young guy is amazing.’
Kang Jung-hyeon admired as he looked at Jang Tae-san, who was smiling quietly with a piece of sashimi in his mouth.
The purpose was to meet Jang Tae-san under the pretext of congratulating his daughter.
Last year, I received a proper word for the first time from the hostess of Ohjeong Group, Hwang Ra-hyun, the executioner.
When I was invited to a family gathering on the side of my wife’s side, Hyungyeong advised me to make a good relationship with Jangtaesan.
Coincidentally, Kang Joong-hyeon also heard of the name Jang Tae-san.
I thought it was talked about once or twice in the political and business circles, but now I hear it occasionally.
Rumors that Jang Tae-san was behind the breakup of the Anah and Cheonil groups were secretly confirmed as true.
Quite a few people around me dismissed it as nonsense, but there was no way smoke would come out of the chimney otherwise.
Then, one day, the reporters of each newspaper were ordered to mute.
Chairman Kang Joong-hyun also heard a warning from Chairman Lim Seong-cheol not to directly inform the world of Jangtaesan.
I was even more curious when something like this happened.
I wanted to see and judge how great a person he was.
Fortunately, he was friends with his daughter Arin.
My daughter, who doesn’t judge others easily, came home and praised me for having a great junior.
Chairman Kang Joong-hyun also found out about this and that, and liked Tae-san Jang more and more.
It wasn’t the standard size.
Unmanageable big players that even Kang Joong-hyeon hadn’t thought of were lined up behind Jangtaesan.
And today, when we met for the first time, Kang Joong-hyun was truly impressed.
He knew his identity and did not show any agitation even though it was his first meeting.
It was as if he had met his next-door neighbor.
Every time our eyes met, it was only a glimpse of a smile that I couldn’t understand.
Rather, Kang Joong-Hyun’s heart trembled every time that happened.
I smelled the scent of a giant that I felt every time I saw President Oh Seong-cheol Lim.
“dad. How is our Taesan? Isn’t it cool? It looks dignified. He’s handsome like the heroine of romance comics… and has a lot of money. Ughhh.”
Kang A-rin, her daughter, constantly praised Tae-san.
“How many female friends there are…”
Lee Ye-rin, her daughter’s junior, also helped out.
Kang Joong-hyeon knew that she was the daughter of a senior judge of the High Court, who would become the next Supreme Court justice.
“Anyway, he is a good friend. Since high school, I have packed all my friends’ snacks. Even now, when I go down to Changzhou, all my friends gather because they want to see Mount Tai.”
He was a guy full of virtue.
“Were they friends? You love my cards more than me?”
“That’s it~ Because you love your friends, don’t you also love cards? Hehe.”
Kang Joong-hyun naturally laughed at the light conversation between Jang Tae-san and his friend Kang Hyun-soo.
Decades ago, I had a time like that myself.
However, at that time, Kang Joong-hyun thought of his friends only as competitors, not friends.
I had been taught that living itself is a business giving and receiving everything.
Friends who were judged to be of no use were erased from memories and contacts and disappeared from their lives.
The remaining friends now are only those who have been judged to be worth using at least once in their lives.
His past days were as much regret as this moment.
In that respect, Jang Tae-san’s human relationship aroused Kang Joong-hyeon’s envy.
“Thank you Taesan-kun. For making my daughter a person at an early age.”
“no. I received a lot of love from seniors.”
“me? Did I buy you love?”
Kang Ah-rin raised her glass and asked, raising her round eyes.
“During orientation, didn’t the sunbaenim just… confess that he likes me and that he loves me and ask me to be loved and say that he’ll be fine as long as he drinks?”
“Kek!”
Jang Tae-san’s joke with a mischievous smile caused Arin’s drinking to go away.
‘I know how to control the atmosphere…’
I knew that my daughter had a crush on Jang Tae-san.
The name Jang Tae-san came out countless times from the mouth of the guy who shouted that the only man was his father.
I’ve heard the same name countless times over the years.
However, it could not be a relationship that promised a future.
Jang Tae-san exceeded the size of a bowl that her daughter could handle.
Lim Yoon-ah, the youngest daughter of Chairman Lim Seong-cheol, already liked him.
In addition, he had a close relationship with the daughter of Director Son Dae-gyun of Li & Chang.
In particular, Jang Tae-san’s gaze itself did not see her daughter as a woman.
“I’m going to go to the bathroom in a minute.”
“Me too!”
When Lee Ye-rin got up to go to the bathroom, Kang A-rin, who became a blush, followed.
“Then excuse me too.”
Kang Hyun-soo must have been patient for a long time, so he hurriedly got up.
“…..”
Unexpectedly, the two of them stayed together.
A moment of silence passed.
Swoop.
Kang Joong-hyun held out his business card.
Jang Tae-san received a business card.
“Come visit me sometime soon. I want to have a quiet meal with you, who have a lot of knowledge.”
Kang Joong-hyun revealed his intention to invite with meaning.
“…..”
Jang Tae-san staring at Kang Joong-hyeon.
‘My gong is no joke.’
Kang Joong-hyun was the first to invite me, but I felt like I was waiting for permission.
Still, oddly enough, it didn’t feel bad.
“I will contact you.”
Jang Tae-san took a business card.
‘Have I… aged.’
Kang Joong-hyeon realized that he had been pushed back in a fight of spirits in a short time.
The opponent I was facing was much stronger than I thought.
It was the first time among his young friends to receive his business card so proudly.
“As rumor has it, the barrel is big, so I like it.”
Kang Joong-hyun’s sincerity came out of his mouth.
“Thank you for a good look.”
Jang Tae-san did not lose his manners even for a second.
A business card was handed over with a smile, but an invisible tension flowed through the room.
“Thank you for taking care of Arin.”
This was also Kang Joong-hyun’s sincerity.
Except for the name of the family, there was nothing to succeed in Korea except the signboard of Korea University and the bar exam.
For Arin Kang, there is only one thing left to do in the future.
In the future, you will take the place of spouse of a good family.
There weren’t that many upper-class daughters-in-law in Korea who guarded their beauty and intelligence.
“I invested a little because my senior will help me a lot in the future.”
Jang Tae-san reveals that it was a deliberate approach.
‘invest?’
Kang Joong-Hyeon saw Jang Tae-San’s mouth smiling faintly.
‘This guy can’t… Knowing my true identity, deliberately?’
Suddenly, a strong doubt hit his head.
The possibility was high enough.
It was perfect when it was suggested to use the central newspaper as a knife.
“You are destined to do good for the country. Just like the president.”
“like me?”
Kang Joong-hyun seemed to be drawn into Jang Tae-san’s words as if he knew something.
It was different from the answer he expected.
He is clearly saying that it is an investment in his daughter, Arin, not himself.
“You can proceed as is.”
Unexpected Jang Tae-san’s pointless advice.
“What do you mean?”
“Chairman….. aren’t you worried because you want to see a better world? The rotten vested interest in Korea, which became entangled with each other and did not know whether it was poop or soybean paste….. I won’t have to turn it over once before I die, especially if it’s a man with a hot heart.”
A kid in front of you who dares to say words with scary meanings casually.
“!!!”
Chairman Kang Joong-hyeon stared at Jang Tae-san, who was penetrating his heart.
The hands and feet under the table trembled at his words, as if the master of the law of interest had returned.
A rebellion that I have been dreaming about since I was buried deep in my heart.
That youngster who seems to fan the heart of those who dream of treachery…
At some point, he seemed like a monster of a traitor who would really destroy the upper class of Korea.
