The Heavenly Demon Gives a Massage - The Heavenly Demon Gives a Massage chapter 215
Humans have a desire.
I want something, I want to eat something more delicious, I want to meet someone, I want to be loved by others, I want to be famous, etc.
Although the motives and contents may be different, each person has their own desires, and that becomes a purpose and a driving force that motivates people.
However.
You can’t make everything happen the way you want it to.
The reason is simple. First, because there is a limit to human ability, secondly, because opportunities are limited, and, crucially, because time is limited.
That’s why people always have a chance to make a choice. My desire, what I want to do, the moment when I have to choose what to give up.
Choi Seong-hyun was like that.
Standing in place with a dumbfounded expression for a while, he looked static and uneasy, like a clock whose gear had fallen off and stopped.
“… So.”
Then a voice just came out.
He wet his dry lips with saliva once and spoke in a calm tone.
“Everton FC players are coming tomorrow? to the store?”
“yes. They will come one after another.”
“Which players?”
“Well… Most of them?”
Kang Tae-han didn’t remember all of Everton’s players, but since the reservations for players scheduled until the day after tomorrow were about 13 or 14, it’s probably that most of the players are coming.
“why?”
“Well, of course you come to get a massage. Is there any other reason to visit the massage parlor?”
That’s not wrong. However, it was not a sufficient answer for Choi Seong-hyun. I didn’t ask because I didn’t know that in the first place.
“what I’m saying is… Why did you tell me that now?”
“I thought you knew.”
Seonghyeon Choi’s words were closer to complaints than to argue. To that friend’s words, Kang Tae-han scratched his head and answered in a slightly perplexed voice.
“I didn’t tell you, how do you know?”
“No, you were also nearby when the manager told me the reservation schedule. So I thought you knew.”
“… uh? Did you?”
When Kang Tae-han said, recalling the moment, Choi Seong-hyeon paused for a moment and began to search for his memory.
When I thought about it, there was one thing that I definitely pointed out. Even the fact that he thought it had nothing to do with him at the time and was doing something else.
“I think it was like that after I heard it… … .”
In fact, it was also something that Seonghyun Choi did not need to concentrate on listening to. The content of the story that day was about the reservation for the Cheonma course, and even Choi Seong-hyun had a scheduled schedule on his day off.
In other words, it is not in my jurisdiction.
That’s why I was nearby, but I was just there, I didn’t pay attention to the content of the story and I was only focusing on my smartphone game. I thought that if I needed help, I would call on my own.
I’m not saying it’s wrong.
To put it bluntly, masseuses only needed to be aware of their schedules, and the atmosphere of Cheonma Massage was not so authoritative and stiff.
However, Choi Seong-hyun had no choice but to regret it. It’s an if story, but if I had focused a little on that day, there wouldn’t have been such a conflict.
“How do you do this… … .”
Soccer is Choi’s favorite sporting event, and Everton FC is Choi’s favorite soccer team.
If Everton is playing, you have to watch it to be satisfied, and the signed ball he received from England that day was decorated like a trophy in a corner of his room, and he still wipes the dust once a week.
Although the reason he became a fan was simply because of the team that Korean player Joo-Wan Kang was playing for, his fan spirit of cheering for and liking the team was not inferior to others.
Of course, Seong-Hyun Choi has already met the players once. The signed ball was also received at that time.
However, doesn’t that mean that the fan spirit will disappear? If Everton players come to Korea for an event, they will be happy to visit, even if it is Jeju Island. Not to mention Seoul.
However… … .
what can i do
Seonghyeon Choi, who had been groaning with anguish and conflict for a while, sighed briefly with an expression of organizing his thoughts.
‘It’s true that it’s a very unfortunate opportunity, but… … .’
Actually, it wasn’t something to think about for a long time.
Because I already made an appointment to meet Jeong Ga-in.
A promise is something that must be kept unless it is unavoidable. Of course, there may be people who don’t think so, but at least Choi Seong-hyun thought so.
No, you don’t even have to go that far.
just… I want to see more of Jung Ga-in. I didn’t have any grandiose plans or anything grandiose prepared, but I just wanted to meet you and see your face.
Is Jeong Ga-in more important than anything else in the world?
Probably not. However, Choi Seong-hyun was able to confidently say that at least he wanted to see her and that he was sincere.
“So, what are you going to do?”
“What should I do, of course I can’t come out.”
Seonghyeon Choi’s voice was so resolute that it made the appearance of worrying just now colorless. Kang Tae-han smiled and nodded as if he knew that.
“I knew it would.”
A strange smile that seemed to already know everything. At that smile, Seonghyun Choi scratched his head with an embarrassed expression. At that moment, Chief Hwang, who was still looking at his laptop, opened his mouth insinuatingly.
“But Sunghyun-ah.”
“why. Are you going to play with this again?”
“No, not that… Didn’t I say earlier that if it gets over 1 million views in one day, it will come out really well?”
“Yes?”
This is a story we just talked about while watching What Tube together. When Choi Seong-hyeon nodded and replied, Chief Hwang turned the screen towards the two and said.
“Isn’t this video uploaded about an hour ago on the same channel?”
The video on the screen is the same as before, from the Denver channel. As he said, it took about two hours at most to upload, and it was a hot video.
“I see. So?”
“This already has 500,000 views.”
“… Eh, is that so?”
Choi Seong-hyun, slightly surprised, turns his gaze toward the number of views.
It was true that Denver Jung’s channel was quite famous, but even so, hundreds of thousands of newly uploaded videos made no sense.
Director Hana Hwang simply stated the truth without exaggeration or fiction. Choi Seong-hyun made a surprised expression at the number of views.
“… What kind of video do you want it to be?”
“There is a foreigner who came as a guest of Taehan not too long ago. He was very tall and muscular.”
“Oh, I think I know who you are talking about.”
It was a very ambiguous explanation, but it seemed like I could tell what kind of person he was talking about. When Choi Seong-hyun nodded, Chief Hwang continued the story by scrolling down the mouse.
“He seemed to be a very famous football player. It’s just a simple interview, but it’s been a while since you’ve seen your face and updated your current situation. The comment section wasn’t even a mess.”
As said, the video already had a significant number of comments. All of the comments are in English.
In fact, there are almost no comments in Korean.
Denver Jung’s channel originally had some foreign subscribers, but… Even so, it wasn’t on this level. Choi Seong-hyun started reading the comments one by one with a surprised expression, and soon opened his mouth as if he had discovered something.
“… I was worried, but I’m glad you look healthy. Do you look forward to Korean massage content that will be uploaded in the future?”
“From now on, this person… Who are you, Mr. Caliber? Anyway, while this person is staying in Korea, he said he’s going to upload some videos. Including a comparison video before and after receiving a massage.”
“Uh, did you talk to us?”
“Now that we’ve talked about it, I guess Taehan-ssi and I are indifferent, right? Of course, I didn’t expect it to be this big.”
Director Hwang looked at Kang Tae-han behind him with a shy expression and said. Taehan Kang smiled lightly and shrugged. He opened his mouth in a playful voice.
“This is how I opened a branch in the United States.”
“Haha, that could be it.”
Director Hwang responds to Kang Tae-han’s jokes with an appropriate laugh. It was a little later that he realized that Kang Tae-han’s words were not just a joke.

A spacious conference hall with a calm atmosphere.
There were many people gathered, but the air inside was so quiet that you could feel the calm. In the air, the man sitting in the most prestigious seat opened his mouth.
“Hmm. There is some time before the meeting starts, and everyone is showing up very quickly.”
The identity of the man is none other than Jang Tae-hyeon, the chairman of Daecheong Group.
Having said that, he glanced at the clock in the corner. About twenty minutes earlier than the original meeting schedule. However, everyone was already seated.
“There is no need to gather so early.”
Jang Tae-hyeon’s words brought a common word to the heads of everyone at the table.
The chairman of the group, not anyone else, is sitting here, so how can he come so slowly?
This is the conference hall located at the head office of Body Care. Of course, there is no one with a higher rank than Jang Tae-hyun here. No, it wouldn’t even be in the group in the first place.
Hearing that he had arrived early and was heading to the meeting room, the executives participating in the meeting put down their busy work and gathered in the meeting room.
It is now that we have gathered like that.
At first glance, everyone seemed to be reading the material with a calm look, but everyone was trying to calm their breathing, exhausted from running.
“Haha, it’s because our executives are all the type to lead by example. They usually gather early like this.”
“Hmm… okay. Great.”
At the words of the president, who spoke with an embarrassed expression, Chairman Jang Tae-hyun nodded and praised him.
Is it really just reacting like this purely without knowing the context, or… Did they show this performance to emphasize the importance of this project?
At least in terms of his expression and voice, he was closer to the former, but his original purpose was unconditionally the latter, and everyone gathered here thought so.
smart.
A knock sounded at that time.
“… come in.”
After sneaking a glance at Chairman Jang Tae-hyun, the president asked him to come in, and the closed door opened quickly and an employee dressed in a suit came inside.
“Excuse me.”
“Oh, come on in.”
Chairman Jang Tae-hyeon seemed to recognize him as soon as he saw him, showing a particularly welcome expression and showing hospitality.
It was worth it.
The reason why he dared to participate in the meetings of the group’s subsidiaries was also because he had high expectations for the project he was in charge of.
Perhaps this is the brightest expression since I visited here today. Of course, it was just a difficult existence for the person involved, like the division commander who visited the unit.
“Hmm, hmm. Hello everyone. Each and every one of the people gathered here is a busy person, so thank you very much for taking the time to sit here.”
On the other hand, a man who got up on the podium receiving such a warm welcome. He bowed his head to the people sitting in the seat, greeted them, and immediately put the presentation material on the screen behind him.
Kwon Tae-soo, the development team leader in charge of this project.
He was one of the main players in the recent rapid growth of body care, and he was also the person in charge of the next key plan to lead the future.
“Well then… We will start reporting the development status of the massage chair The Meister’s follow-up product, tentatively named The Second.”
And this meeting is a place to report the progress of the project and discuss future directions.
Perhaps it was because of the anticipation for this project, a faint smile appeared on Chairman Jeong Tae-hyun’s face as he listened to the presentation.
