After Yoon Chang-ho's press conference, the formation of the new party began to gain momentum. Starting with the junior members of the Conservative Party, more legislators from the Progressive Party also began to express their willingness to join. Of course, my efforts were behind this. Those who could be bought with money were bought off, and those who couldn’t were coerced with their weaknesses. I helped in every way I could. Though the party hadn’t even been established yet, it had garnered…-

A thin wisp of steam rose from the teacup. The silence was broken by Yoon Chang-ho's voice. "...I know your fear better than anyone else. You haven't forgotten, have you? I was the one who took care of things when you wanted someone removed or buried." "Yes. But power changes people. I don’t trust politicians. I trust you, Prosecutor. Please don’t make me your enemy." After forming a connection, Yoon Chang-ho had never disappointed me. He accomplished whatever he set out to do, no…

Hyeon-seong's reaction was quite amusing. "What’s wrong? Why aren’t you answering? Is it real?" "No." "So you do seem a bit interested, huh?" "..." Hyeon-seong downed his soju in one go, hesitating for a moment before finally speaking up. "I do feel something, but... it’s complicated with work and everything. Plus, I’ve never confessed to a girl before..." He had never given his heart to a girl since childhood. I poured him more soju, laughing. "I can't believe it. The mighty Park…

"Boss, I have something to report." After finishing the visit, we were on our way back to the Myeong-dong office. Manager Ma quietly began to speak. "I looked into the Zhung Lian Bang." "Yeah, what did you find out?" "Taiwan has a much closer relationship between the business sector, politics, and organized crime compared to Hong Kong or Japan. You could say there are virtually no boundaries." "Wasn't it supposed to be a safe place?" I heard Taiwanese public safety was comparable to ours. Manager…

Lee Sang-geun sprang into action the moment he received Kim Mu-hyeok’s order. His subordinates thought it wasn't necessary for him to get involved directly, but Lee Sang-geun believed it was better that way. The Taiwan gang quickly accepted Lee Sang-geun's proposal. He headed to the restaurant mentioned by the Taiwan gang. "It’s an honor. I’m Chen Jin-peng." He ignored Chen Jin-peng’s outstretched hand and took his seat. "Just sit down already." Chen Jin-peng stood there, his face slightly…

Their conversation was a back-and-forth dance along parallel lines, each side speaking only of their own position. "Well said. So, Chairman Kim, when do you plan to hand it over?" "With those kinds of accusations, do you think pressuring me will help? You need to understand our internal circumstances too," he countered. "The situation at Hyunhwa is of no concern to me. Accusations? The value of a company is determined not by you, but by me. Isn't the value of a listed company dictated by the market…

Why don't I invest in China? Because it's an incredibly unreliable country. In some ways, it's worse than Japan. "I don't understand. American investors are slowly coming in, and South Korean conglomerates are very interested in the Chinese market. Why is Boss Kim so negative about it?" I thought for a moment but decided to speak honestly. "It's because I can't trust it. Of course, there are risks in investing, but money might be tied up in China for political rather than economic reasons." "Are you…

The road leading to the Mirae Building loomed ahead. The sky looked like it might unleash rain at any moment. The figure of the Mirae Building stood against the darkening sky. It had changed a lot since its initial construction. The sight of the Taesan Bank's headquarters on the first floor brought a smile to my face. I parked my car along the road and waited, soon after, Eva opened the back seat door and climbed in. "Boss! It's been a while." Eva was practically a person who was always out and…

Roman would still be gaining power behind the backs of the first-generation oligarchs. I greeted them with a calm expression, smoothly transitioning into casual conversation. "Do you like soccer, by any chance?" I smiled as I replied to Roman's question. "Of course! Korean men are crazy about soccer. The 2002 World Cup was co-hosted with Japan, which really boosted the public's interest in it." "Ah, I heard about that. I hope Russia qualifies for the World Cup. If I visit Korea, would you be my…

"I plan to limit the political participation of the oligarchs." I expected as much. That’s as far as I got, though. In his previous life, Putin had let only those who followed him keep their positions, seizing the properties of everyone else and either exiling or imprisoning them. "Still, the influence of the oligarchs is considerable. No, to be honest, their money is what truly matters right now." Putin sipped his black tea, his voice trailing off ominously. "Then, out of the blue, you appeared in…
