Chapter 120

Jinhun went back to Angela, while Hyunwoo came back to the place where the Kwak and Tamtit’s family gathered.

Hyunwoo asked a favor of Sungji, “As you were generous enough o help out the Tamtit family, can you be a little more generous?”

“How can I help you?”

Hyunwoo told him about Angela, and Sungji nodded his head, saying it was not a problem at all.

The Tamtit family and Angela moved to a place near the N&C factory. As they lost everything in the typhoon, there was little to move. They had to even buy clothes in Ho Chi Min city. Still, they were all happy because they found the means of living thanks to Hyunwoo.

Hyunwoo was supposed to stay until Tuesday, but as they had found Tamtit’s family, he had no reason to stay longer. When he checked out the flight back to Korea, there was one seat available on Monday.

Sungji gave Hyunwoo a ride to the airport in person, “I wish you stayed one more day.”

“I’d love to see my girlfriend. I am going on a date with her as soon as I arrive in Korea.”

“Oh, I shouldn’t hold you, then. Hahaha. By the way, I tipped Yuzung off on your departure today. Looks like she couldn’t come.”

“Did you contact Yuzung? Oh my…Don’t do that, please.”

“Oh, don’t misunderstand me. It’s not me, but Yuzung who wanted to know about your departure time. She wanted to see you off.”

At that moment, he received a call on his cell phone. It was from Yuzung.

“I really wanted to see you off, but I can’t come because of an important class.”

“Thanks so much for your kind words.”

“This is my number. Can you call me sometimes? Otherwise, I’ll call you anytime.”

“Hahaha. Got it. When I have a chance later, let me introduce my girlfriend to you.”

“Sure. Please come here with your sweetheart. Let me guide you then.”

Hyunwoo hung up the phone and then got aboard the plane bound for South Korea.

On the plane, he had the Korean presidents on the brain. He was requested to promote their products for sale in Korea. If all things went well, it would bring great benefits to their companies in Vietnam and at the same time boost N&C Korea’s profits, too.

I wish the press could help me just like they did for the Dream Team.

At that time, his employer Aurum was a big help because Korean Broadcasting first mentioned the special feature about the Dream Team, but that would be difficult this time.

Let me think of another good idea.

What was important was the image of the company and its brand name.

Sales activities for N&C were an easy job for him because the company had a good image and brand name, but other Korean companies in Vietnam had none of them, so it was difficult for them to promote their products even with the competitive price and good quality.

In the current situation, it would be almost impossible to make ends meet, no matter how hard the salesmen were running around.

As soon as he arrived, Hyunwoo called Kwangsu Han, the owner of Real Film.

Kwangsu was skeptical about his idea.

“It’s not that difficult to make videos on their products. Do you have any network of some influential men in the broadcasting companies?”

“Nope.”

“I don’t think the broadcasting companies will take on your idea.”

“I know you know lots of people in the broadcasting field.”

“Well, I know only frontline managers. Even if you know higher-ups there, they are not responsive even if you mobilize influential men.”

After all, what he meant was Hyunwoo had to use kickback to influence them.

Hyunwoo also thought about that as the last resort.

“Let’s make the video first, then. When are you available?”

“I’m so tied up right now. I have no idea when I can finish the current job.”

“Just let me know as soon as you’re done.”

“Sure.”

Hyunwoo felt he could find a solution when he called Kwangu, but he felt rather heavy with no satisfactory solution.

After all, it was either networking or kickback.

It was already 4 pm.

Originally, Hyunwoo was supposed to have dinner with Suji as soon as he arrived.

Though Suji might think it was a casual dinner, Hyunwoo thought of it as a date with her, but it was bad timing.

“Oh, what should I do? I agreed to go to a year-end-party with my friends…”

It was Hyunwoo’s mistake. He should have called her to check her schedule.

As the second best choice, Hyunwoo decided to meet Sungrak and Jaegyong to discuss the upcoming sales work for the Vietnamese products.

Hyunwoo headed for the N&C Korea retail warehouse around dinner time.

When Hyunwoo appeared, everybody bowed to him with a surprise.

Rightly, they were surprised because Hyunwoo didn’t inform them in advance.

“How was your trip to Vietnam?”

“Oh, good. Gifts for you, guys,” said Hyunwoo, presenting them with Vietnamese coffee.

“Thanks.”

“How is your job doing?”

“I like it, especially since we had a flood of orders. I feel it’s more fun when we have more orders.”

Sungrak and Jaegyong gave him bright smiles. Smiling at them, Hyunwoo looked at Juhwan Moon who had been hired only several days ago.

Juhwan was a 20-year-old young man from the orphanage in Suwon. As Sungrak and Jaegyong’s hands were full handling the orders, Hyunwoo asked the director of the House of Happiness to recommend someone. Juhwan’s first impression was not good, but the director recommended him confidently.

“Above all, he is sincere and good-hearted. Contrary to his looks, he is pretty witty. If you hire him, he will do his bit very well,” said the director.

Actually, Juwan was getting well adjusted to his work, shaking off Hyunwoo’s concern. And he was very sincere just as the director said. Sungrak and Jaegyong were also satisfied with him

“How is your work?”

Juhwan said, scratching his head at his asking, “I still don’t know what’s what. I’ve got so much to learn here.”

“Oh, man. You already learned almost everything. If I had a couple of more like you, I and Jaegyong could be free from work and enjoy travel. Hahaha,” said Sungrak, highly praising him.

Hyunwoo replied he had no problem at all, “Sure. Hire a couple of more then.”

“Oh, I’m just kidding. Currently, we three can process the orders without any problem.”

“Well, not now, but in the future, we might have a problem. Sungwoo Paek told us he would hand over his sales work to you before he went to the United States. Didn’t you hear anything from him?”

“That’s what I heard. If that’s the case, it’s about time we hired a couple of more and gave them job training.”

“Would you hire them, sir?”

“Hey, did you forget what I told you? You’re not the employee here but the president. I hired Juwhan for you because you guys didn’t know anything about hiring. It’s up to you to hire some good candidates.”

Sungrak and Jaegyong scratched their heads, “Well, we don’t have a good eye for hiring…”

Hyunwoo gave them a tip, “I’ve said something to the director on this, so if you ask him, he will contact other orphanages to recommend people. That’s how I hired Juhwan.”

“Got it!”

“By the way, do you still have lots of work to do? Can I help you?”

“No, thanks, sir. I’ve got a little more to do.”

The staff began to move around busily, and Hyunwoo chipped in.

When Hyunwoo joined them to sort out the orders, their job was done quickly.

They finally turned on the unmanned security alert system.

As if he was waiting for them, Hyunwoo said, “Let’s go. Let’s have dinner together since we haven’t done so in a long time.”

Sungrak and Jaegyong scratched their heads, “What should I do? I promised to treat the orphanage kids to some fried food at the restaurant in front of the school.”

Hearing that they were supposed to treat some of the students at the House of Happiness to some light snacks, Hyunwoo felt it was stupid that he visited the place abruptly without making any appointments in advance. Nonetheless, Hyunwoo felt good about it.

“Really? Actually, I wanted to have some snack these days. Let’s go together.”

They headed to Ansan High School.

A little later some kids came to them in droves and followed them as if they were their real elder brothers. Sungrak and Jaegyoung also treated them as if they were their younger brothers.

It was not just today they treated the kids. Whenever they found the time, they would go to the House of Happiness to help the kids there.

They didn’t take care of the kids in the past. It was only after they met Hyunwoo that they began to change, and the reason was simple. As they respected Hyunwoo, they wanted to make him their role model, and naturally came to emulate his way of life.

The first thing they learned from Hyunwoo while watching him was giving and repaying.

If you give something to somebody, you’ll get back from him more than you give. And if you received something, you should repay by all means.

They began to translate that lesson into action gradually, so they decided to give something away to those who were in need of help.

When they looked around, there were so many who needed help. Even at the House of Happiness, there was always someone who needed help. That’s why they treated the kids, but they didn’t know how to repay to Hyunwoo. To them, Hyunwoo seemed a man who didn’t need anything in the world.

Hyunwoo was just content with watching them change like that. He felt that he already got the return on the investment he made on them.

“Help yourself to the food as much as you like!” said the granny of the snack bar, bringing heaps of extra snacks for the kids. A total of ten shared the food, but the charge was less than 50,000 won.

Fully satisfied, everybody went home.

After giving the kids a ride back to the House of Happiness, Hyunwoo went home with Sungrak.

When they arrived, it was already 9 pm.

Hyunwoo felt something strange in the stomach, though. He felt a sharp pain as if his stomach was pricked with a needle. Worse, he felt dizzy.
