In the office of Mr. Kim Hyunwoo, the president.
Kim in a black suit took hold of a keyphone and called sowhere.
Wow, its a great honor for you to give a call first like this. Did you have lunch, sir?
Oh, yes. I ate until Im full.
I think I have to treat you, but Ive been in Philippines for one month.
As you say youre busy, I feel good. Now all you have to do is to rake in the money.
Hahaha I owe all this to president Kim Hyunwoo. Im always thankful to you.
Suddenly his glittering eyes full of greed ca to Kims mind.
Lee Dongman, who a.s.sud the power of president only one year ago. As the previous president pa.s.sed away because of cardiac infarction, Lee took his place.
There flared so controversy over his taking over the position such as a behind-the-scene conspiracy or mobilization of gangsters, but Kim did not care.
Unlike the previous president, Lee Dongmans way of doing business made him frown.
As he had found out, the kind of business he had been doing so far was wine and dine for his business partners, with boxes containing cash for them.
When Kim first t him, Lees flattering and walking on eggsh.e.l.ls around him was an eyesore to him.
Kim had forgotten Lee for a long ti, but Suhyuks call suddenly reminded him of Lee.
Kim could make a judgnt, naly, if such a figure is the president of Mirae Electronics, this company would not be able to grow under his leaders.h.i. p.
More than that, he would sue his nephew-like Suhyuk for defamation?
Lees wife and daughter exactly resembled him in terms of their behavior.
While Lee continued to flatter Kim, he just smiled, saying,
You seem very busy, but Im afraid I have to make you busier.
Wow! Are you thinking of helping more? I am just so, so thankful to you
I think the company bonds maturity cos to an end this month, right?
Oh, yes. Actually I was going to see you about that
Im going to collect on the debt without extending it. And the investnt I ntioned to you separately is off!
An urgent voice ca out of the phone.
President Kim, why are you saying that suddenly? Did I do anything wrong?
Well, because I feel bored.
Talking with him shortly like that, Kim Hyunwoo hung up the phone.
Twisting his long legs, Kim stroked his chin, when the phone rang.
It was a call from Lee Dongman.
Rejecting it, Kim contacted his driver Kim for so direction,
Mr. Kim, as for our 10% equity in Mirae Electronics, just sell them at the lowest price. And tip the press on it, okay?
Yes, sir.
Rising from the seat, Kim stretched himself fully.
He was overlooking high-rise buildings outside the window.
What a nice weather today!

Dongsu, who was at the interrogation room of the detectives departnt, rose from his seat, and he patted Heyjin on the shoulder lightly, seated on the opposite side.
Dont worry about anything.
Heyjin nodded her head.
Detective Choi.
At his voice, a detective ca to him.
Please escort her to her house safely.
Yes, sir.
The detective opened the door, when she turned back suddenly to look at Dongsu.
Why? Do you have anything else to say?
Heyjin shook her head from left to right, and she bowed her head,Thank you.
You dont have to thank at all. You can say thank you to that ddleso doctor.
Soon Heyjin went out with the detective, and Dongsu sat before the laptop, and he read carefully an affidavit that he wrote by himself.
Not only extorting money but also torture using water.
They took off her clothes and attempted to film her. Fortunately she could escape from them.
Dongsu knitted his brows.
School violence was turning nastier by the day and being developed sophisticatedly.
Beating, extortion, threatening, murder and even suicide.
It was much like an organized gang.
What would have happened to Heyjin if Suhyuk had not found her?
The detectives departnt was in clamours with a womans voice.
You guys are making a mistake. Dont you know who I am? The mont you recognize , youll have regrets.
Picking his ears, Dongsu approached her.
Are you Subins mother?
She opened her mouth, scrutinizing him from head to toe,
Yes, who are you?
Im the prosecutor in charge of this Lee Heyjins case.
She made a frown suddenly, arguing,
What did my daughter do wrong? Did you see her? Any evidence?
Dongsu smiled slightly, and turned his eyes toward the other girls.
You guys did hara.s.s her, right?
Hearing no reply from them, Dongsu nodded his head.
Yes, youre doing fine. You know how to exercise the right of silence, too. Most of the people here are doing it just like that. But they say the sa thing at the end of the day, naly, Im sorry.
Subins mother had bloodshot in her eyes now,
You! Whos your supervisor?
Then a man ca up to them. He was a lawyer she hired.
Soon the girls hardened faces beca relaxed, and they took a glance at Suhyuk.
Dongsu could not help but giggle at that.
The lawyer opened his mouth right away,
How could you detain them without any warrant
Dongsu presented to him a piece of paper.
It is still hot, isnt it? Its just been issued
The lawyer could not respond. Instead he let out a long sigh.
Dongsu was the very prosecutor who had two prosecutors involved in wrongdoing put in jail.
He was very famous even among lawyers. He would catch anyone who commits cris.
When her lawyer beca dumb as an oyster, she made a frown suddenly.
Lawyer Kang! My daughter Subin
Now Im going to start interrogating her. If you make any further noise, I would a.s.su its an obstruction of justice. Do you understand?
Dongsus smile was gone already.

Sweeping up her long brown hair, a lady was sneaking into the school gate.
She went into the school along with a man holding a cara.
With a little whisper, reporter Han Jihye opened her mouth,
Looks like this is our own scoop, as there are no other reporters.
Youre right. Daughter of Lee Dongman, president of Mirae Electronics, under investigation for hara.s.snt. What a big news story!
Shh! Your voice is too big, as the students are taking cla.s.ses right now. Lets sit here for a mont.
She squatted on the stairs of the hallway, and the caraman opened his eyes wider.
Wont you go and cover the princ.i.p.al and the horoom teacher? Shaking her head, she opened her mouth, How many years have you worked with ?
Two years.
You have a long way to go.
What do you an?
Just co to think of it. If you go and tell the princ.i.p.al and the teacher that were here to cover school violence, do you think they would welco you and grant an interview? If you were in their shoes, would you want to do that?
He scratched his head, adding, Maybe theyre going to expel us.
Yeah, as the image of the school is damaged, they would make a big fuss by threatening to call the police.
What would you do then?
When she gestured with her chin, he turned his head.
2nd Year 3rd Cla.s.sroom.
Lets interview the students first.
She bead brightly, thinking to herself, What a lucky charm he is.
What would the good luck charm Suhyuk be doing right now?
9pm that day.
News was coming out from the radio on the bus.
The bus ca to a stop with a shrieking noise.
Listening to the radio,Suhyuk got off the stop.
The white vinyl bag he was holding contained various dicines such as ointnts to apply to wounds,etc.
Arriving at the orphanage, he went to the directors office.
The noise of children resonated within the hallway.
Then a boy who just ca out of the rest room noticed Suhyuk.
Uh? Are you here again because youre hungry? The al ti is already past.
Suhyuk bent his knee and checked his face.
A scab on the wound fell off and new flesh was coming out in its place.
When Suhyuk smiled, the boy waved his hands, Now I have to go to sleep. Co earlier next ti.
The boy said he wanted to be a doctor when he grew up.
If his dream does not change, one day he could see the boy again.
The directors door was open.
Rising from the seat, she held Suhyuks hands with a bright smile.
Thanks so much. I dont know how to repay your help
Suhyuk handed her the dicine bag, saying,
These are the essential dicines for daily life. And the ointnts with the nas on are for Hayon, Jongwook, and
Tears fell down from the directors eyes.
How can I repay this Thanks a million
Suhyuk made a bitter smile. When he saw the director at first, Suhyuk doubted her for a mont, though she was also such a good-hearted woman.
The children would grow up well because they had a good director like her.
Goodbye then.
When he was about to go out, Heyjin was standing there.
Hi!
Are you leaving now, sir?
Suhyuk nodded his head, saying, Ive got many patients waiting for
Youll co back, wont you?
Sure, if you call .
When Suhyuk was going out the door, the director followed him.
Dont co out.
The director, sowhat hesitant, told Heyjin, Go and see him off.
So, both of them walked through the hallway and went out into the playfield.
Suhyuk took a glance at her walking by his side.
There was no ntion of her na on the internet or in the press.
She appeared only as a victim, because he arranged it as such.
I hear that youre being transferred to another school? Yes
You can study well there, right?
Yes, Im determined to change.
They arrived at the main gate of the school.
Take care, then.
Goodbye, sir.
Nodding his head, he turned back.
Heyjin was looking at him disappearing into the distance quietly, taking her two hands to her mouth, she shouted, Uncle Dr. Lee!
Suhyuk turned back.
If our children get sick, can I take them to see you?
He made a smile, but he was seen nodding his head only.
How can I find you at the hospital?
Look for Lee Suhyuk, Lee Suhyuk.
Suhyuk was walking back, with his back against her, and Heyjin was repeating his na,
Uncle Lee Suhyuk, Lee Suhyuk
