"Congratulations, Secretary General." I offered my congratulations to Hu Jintao who was on the other end of the line. At the recently held 16th National Congress, Hu Jintao was elected as Secretary General. Even Wen Jiabao who had fallen from grace was appointed Prime Minister of the State Council as history dictated. "I'm not sure if it's worth celebrating." "Worry about the future later.

"How did our Il-seong Group end up being treated like this? Does anyone here know why?" Though his question was calm, not a single person in the room dared to speak. "No answer? Are you all slacking off because my father's bedridden, or are you disrespecting me because I'm in this position?" "That's not it." Yoon Yong-seong, president of…

I spent several days in Busan resting and organizing my thoughts. While I was down here I took Grandma to the university hospital despite her adamant refusals. "There are no major issues. However given her age minor ailments are unavoidable." I felt relieved hearing there were no health concerns. I'd been worried about how much more she'd been sleeping lately. The doctor's assurance that this was a natural part of aging helped put my mind at ease. "However once heart problems occur there's always a…

A villa owned by the Heavenly Group on the outskirts of Gyeonggi Province. The men seated at the long tables flanking the head seat made no effort to hide their discomfort.

As his footsteps echoed in the quiet room, all eyes turned to him. "Looks like I'm a bit late." Yoo Sung-jin smiled in an attempt to…

A secret bar in Gangnam. I sat alone at the bar swirling my glass while waiting for Yoon Chang-ho. By the time the large ice cube had melted slightly the closed door swung open. Yoon Chang-ho walked straight toward me after entering. "Boss Kim it's been a while since we've seen each other." "Indeed it has. I see you're looking rather haggard Chairman." "Haha you know how it is. Things have been crazy lately. Never thought Kim Hak-gwon that old fox would try to drag us into this mess." Though Yoon…
