Episode 94: Let’s go first

These days, there is a man who ranks first in favorability among South Korea’s conglomerates.

↳ Wow, really. I never thought I would become a fan of conglomerates in my lifetime… … .

↳ No, seriously. You changed your clothes and hairstyle. It’s no joke. Why are you getting more and more handsome… …? Are you an actor? A model?

↳ Huh? Isn’t this person a celebrity?

↳ You are the president of the Gyeomyeong Group.

↳ Oh my… … !

Kim Si-on, Chairman of the Keimyung Group. His spectacular transformation as he approaches his mid-40s.

The channel , which contains his daily life, has been receiving so much attention that it has been ranked on the YouTube algorithm several times.

As his name suggests, he is the chairman of a conglomerate, so his subscriber count quickly surpassed 1 million and approached 2 million, and the number of views per video steadily increased from 100,000 to 200,000 and then to 300,000.

More and more people are using his videos as a playground to leave comments.

One of their main interests is Chairman Kim Si-on’s fashion.

Kim Si-on always wore old-fashioned suits and had an old-fashioned executive hairstyle.

But after receiving consulting from , he changed.

The boring chairman turned into a tall and handsome actor?

Even now, you are studying fashion on your own and developing your own style?

Not many people could tolerate this story.

↳ Wow. What’s the intro for today? The door to the chairman’s office opens, and the handsome chairman in workwear is signing a document… … This is fantasy.

↳ Workwear? What is that?

↳ Isn’t it more Americana than workwear?

↳ That’s it.

↳ Similar, but a bit different. Workwear is literally the style worn by American workers, and Amekaji is a Japanese reinterpretation of that… … .

↳ Anyway, it’s so cool!

↳ Seriously. A chairman who can really pull off workwear… … . He’s cool.

↳ Mr. Chairman, can you tell me some information about what to wear today… … .

↳ If I give you that, can you live with it?

↳ Why are you so angry? Can’t you ask?

↳ This is Chairman Kim Si-on: Oh, it’s not expensive. I bought it at XX Clo. A utility denim jacket with a t-shirt. And parachute shorts. Kim Si-on.

↳ Oh my! The chairman’s own comment!

↳ Mr. Chairman! Please give me 100 million!

The cheers of people running for every video and comment.

Reactions that are full of friendliness and affection.

Kim Si-on has been feeling a bit strange lately.

In fact, it was extremely difficult to gain people’s favor while living as a chaebol in Korea.

Since each conglomerate is a conglomerate, it is natural that each person and each family is different.

Personality and beliefs are all different.

However, people tend to lump together conglomerates and think of them as all similar people.

The bad deeds of this conglomerate, the bad deeds of that conglomerate, these things are all lumped together to create an imaginary evil conglomerate.

Kim Si-on’s family followed the meticulous will left by his grandfather and never ate up inheritance tax, and they also made a lot of contributions to society that they could be proud of.

But somehow, it seemed that a YouTube channel that had been running for less than a year resonated with people more than those difficult and honest decisions.

Should I like this or be upset?

Chairman Kim Si-on felt complicated emotions, but eventually smiled.

“I’m looking forward to the second half.”

The public interest that had been raised while receiving star consulting for continued even after the three-month contract ended.

No, it was getting hotter and hotter.

↳ But I’m really looking forward to this Lucy phone. How will it turn out when the chairman has changed so much?

Now, people are showing interest in the new Lucy phone that will be released in the second half of the year without having to work in the PR team.

“If this is the case… … . The consulting fee of 1 billion won is not at all a waste.”

Rather, I thought it was cheap.

When I first signed the contract with , I had a lot of concerns about whether this was really the right thing to do… … .

Even the elders in the family who had previously been opposed to the idea were now supporting it.

But what’s even scarier is that there are still bombs left.

“Milliph Eretishia’s Central Park performance.”

Millie Eretria, the mega pop star who is currently taking America by storm.

The greatest show of her life she’s planning.

The person in charge of the stage costumes there was none other than designer Lee Yong-won of .

What if that stage becomes a legendary stage that will remain in human history for a long time?

So what if the videos and photos of that stage costume sweep the internet?

What if the connection between Lee Yong-won, who designed it, and himself, the chairman of the Kyeomyeong Group, is revealed?

There has never been a marketing boon like this.

If done well, it could be an opportunity to raise the awareness of Lucifer, which is currently staying in Korea, to a global level.

“Thank you, Mr. Lee Yong-won.”

Kim Si-on put his hands together as if praying.

His computer was playing a video of Ava Lawrence from a recent Helen Show appearance.

* * *

It was a syndrome.

At first, when School Zone was in its infancy, the attention that and Lee Yong-won received was nothing more than a maniacal interest.

There were so many people in this world who had no interest in girl groups, and even less were they interested in the people who created the concepts for those girl groups.

But if new firewood is continuously added before one log is fully burned, the fire is bound to grow stronger.

She became a hot topic by selling clothes to Millif Ereticia.

Behind actor Kim Ji-hoon, there was also Lee Yong-won.

Lee Yong-won also appeared in the national entertainment show, “I Will Learn a Thing.”

With the success of the YouTube channel , he became known once again, and more of his backstories were revealed through the channel run by his father.

The flames spread beyond the campfire and began to burn the forest.

More and more people became aware of Lee Yong-won’s existence and took interest in his success story.

And just as great interest inevitably breeds great dislike, great interest inevitably breeds great dislike.

These days, experts from all corners of the room are busy writing their own reviews of the facility, as long as there are enough of them.

Even on his father’s channel, , it was no exception.

↳ But honestly, making the stage costumes for Millie is an overstatement.

↳ What’s over?

↳ Just making good everyday clothes and coordinating clothes well are completely different fields from stage costumes.

↳ Why are you worried about that? LOL Millif said he would do it.

↳ I just spoke my mind because people kept making a fuss.

In his YouTube comments, and even sometimes in live chats, Lee Yong-won frequently comes up as a topic of conversation.

Just as there were many people who wanted Lee Yong-won to rise to the world stage through Millip’s stage costumes, there were also many people who wanted to be a part of it.

Lee Yong-won’s father sensed this atmosphere and made a comment on his broadcast.

“It could work out, and it could also work out… … I don’t know why you’re insisting on picking on people who are cheering you on. Don’t worry about it. If our Yongwon does well, they’ll all disappear, and even if it doesn’t work out, what our son has accomplished won’t disappear.”

He pretended not to care, but inside he was trembling more than anyone else.

‘Yongwon! Beat up all these guys… …!’

He raised his son freely from a young age with the mindset of “Haha, as long as he doesn’t come in last, hehe.”

But at this moment, I felt like I understood how upset my parents would be if their child came in second place in the entire school.

Finally, finally, the day of Millie’s performance has arrived.

I would have liked to arrive in New York the night before if possible, but that wasn’t possible.

was also nearing its end, so the filming schedule was tight, so I had to book a flight to arrive early in the morning on the day of the performance.

I thought it would be okay since the show starts at 5pm…

‘But why did things turn out like this… … .’

I definitely made sure to give myself plenty of time.

I had a flight departing at 3pm the day before, and by the time I finished all the airport procedures and went to the gate, it was 2:30.

but,

Hooddududud-!

Boom! Boom!

While waiting for my flight at Taipei Airport, it suddenly started to rain heavily and thunder and lightning.

From then on, I started feeling a little anxious… … .

One by one, delayed arrival signs began to appear on the electronic display showing flights scheduled for takeoff.

“Huh? Huh?”

An announcement echoed throughout the airport.

They said the departure was delayed due to sudden bad weather.

Somehow, I felt like there was a stone on my chest.

At 3 o’clock in the afternoon, an international call came in.

It was Michelle, Millif’s secretary and interpreter.

She asked me, as always, in fluent Korean.

– Did you board the plane safely?

“Uh… … . I heard that it’s delayed?”

– Yes? How much?

“Hmm. I don’t know right now. It started raining so hard all of a sudden.”

– … … Yes, I understand. But I still have about 10 hours left, so that should be okay.

“Yes, it will be okay.”

If I had taken the flight at 3pm as originally scheduled, I would have arrived in New York at around 6am. If I took a taxi from there and went to downtown New York, it would be 7am. That still left me with 10 hours until I could enter Millie’s concert, so I still had plenty of time.

But why is that?

Why does a part of my heart keep feeling uneasy?

An hour later, I got another call from Michelle.

– Have you ridden it?

“yet…….”

An hour later, I got another call.

– Did you stop?

“yet…….”

Time passed like that.

3 hours, 5 hours, 7 hours.

With each phone call, Michelle’s voice became more and more anxious.

– Ah… … This is a big deal. What should I do? Should I hire a private jet?

“No. There are currently no planes at the airport, so it’s no different if you have a private jet.”

– That’s true. Ah… … .

“Don’t worry too much. Even if I’m a little late, I’ll definitely go see the show.”

– No!

When I cautiously assumed the worst, Michelle reacted as if she was about to throw a match.

– Millief. Actually, I get really nervous and shaken up before a performance. So, I feel relieved only when everything goes according to plan before the performance.

“Uh… … Really?”

– Yes. One drink to drink. One sandwich to eat. Everything has to be prepared exactly as Millief expected. Otherwise, she gets noticeably anxious and the performance goes awry.

“Is that all?”

– So, I don’t usually make any other plans right before a performance… …. But for this performance, I made sure to say hello to Lee Yong-won before going in.

“uh…….”

– Ah… … . What should I do? If I don’t see Millie before the show starts, she’ll be really nervous… … .

Michelle was at a loss, and I was getting anxious too.

‘No. Why won’t this damn rain stop?!’

The school zone members must have sensed my tense atmosphere, as they were sighing while clinging to the rain-covered window.

Time continued to pass like that. Ten hours, and finally,

The maddening downpour had eased a bit, and we hurriedly boarded the plane to New York. It was 2:30 in the morning.

I called Michelle urgently.

“We’re on the plane now!”

– Thank goodness! Thank goodness! I’ll be there to pick you up at the airport!

“But… … isn’t it too late already? It’ll be 5:30 when we arrive at the airport… … .”

– I’ll do something about it! You said there were 15 people in total, right?

“yes!”

– Just come safely! Just come!

The plane, annoyingly, dropped us off at New York airport at exactly 5:30 PM without going any faster.

Still, it was fortunate that I was able to pack my luggage quickly since it was first class.

As I was frantically packing and exiting the gate, I saw Michelle looking around.

“Michelle!”

“Follow me!”

As soon as she spotted us, she came up to me, grabbed me, and ran.

With me at the helm, the school zone, manager, security guards, and filming crew had to run all at once.

and,

That day, I rode a helicopter for the first time.

“This is… … ?”

“No time! Let’s get on first!”

Michelle, a blonde beauty, jumped onto the helicopter with its propeller spinning and extended her hand to me.

Just like a secret agent who suddenly appeared with the secret of my birth.

I followed her and climbed onto the helicopter as if possessed.
