“Hey, bring me two bottles of Fresh.” “…….” Eunho carefully observed the customer. He couldn't bring himself to say that he should retrieve the items himself. Working night shifts at a convenience store, he often encountered drunk customers. Their unreasonable demands were a daily occurrence. After a few encounters with drunk customers, he learned firsthand that it's better to quickly give in to their demands and send them away than to confront them. Eunho left the counter and…- 258.7 K • Completed
The meat restaurant located on the corner of the alley was bathed in a dim light. Traces of the past were apparent in the old sign and worn-out glass door. A wisp of smoke drifted through the slightly open crack. Perhaps due to the inclement weather, the shop was nearly deserted. A metallic noise echoed from the back door leading to the kitchen. Eunho had finished washing the dishes and was coming out for a breath of fresh air. The dark green apron he wore over his short-sleeved T-shirt was…- 258.7 K • Completed
“Is the setup complete?” In response, President Kang raised his eyebrows. His expression confident. Yeorok’s steps directed him into the hospital. The abandoned facility remained as he remembered, dim and shadowy whether day or night, still permeated by a musty mold odor. The resounding clack of his shoes echoed through the empty corridor, penetrating deep inside. An eerie wail reminiscent of a ghost’s cry could be heard. As he ventured further, the bizarre sound took on a clearer form. A…- 258.7 K • Completed
Eunho left home early in the morning. After a long walk, he came upon a street lined with shops. He wandered aimlessly, searching for stores advertising part-time jobs. These days, most information is obtained online. It's rare to find someone like Eunho who goes out and does the legwork. That makes it easy to create a suspicious impression, but there's no immediate solution. Fortunately, he managed to secure two jobs: a part-time job at a meat restaurant during the day and a part-time job at a…- 258.7 K • Completed
After Eunho finished washing his face simply and came out, he faced a lavish breakfast table. The smell of freshly baked bread made his hungry stomach stir. The buttery scent that came with every breath was almost overwhelming. The neatly arranged coffee cup and plate were the most luxurious tableware Eunho had ever seen in his life. “Shall we talk a little while eating?” Yeorok, who had already taken his seat, naturally offered coffee. Eunho gave a short bow and brought his cup to his lips. The…- 258.7 K • Completed
It had been almost 2 months since Seo Taehwa had disappeared. President Kang was someone with a knack for hide and seek, but Seo Taehwa, who had decided to disappear, was quite difficult to track down. Yeorok took out his phone. Given the seriousness of the matter, he called President Kang directly. He usually only gave instructions through Secretary Hong, and actually speaking on the phone himself was rare. “This is Choi Yeorok. I heard the report.” –Ah, don’t even get me started. We went…- 258.7 K • Completed
Morning arrived. After sleeping for a single night, the atmosphere inside the house had noticeably changed. Eunho, however, looked the same as always. He got up, washed, and ate a simple breakfast. After that, he headed to the annex to pack his things. None of the bodyguards stopped him. They even cleared the way on their own. If it could be called a positive change, then it was one. Eunho opened the front door of the annex and stepped inside. From the moment his foot crossed the threshold, cold…- 258.7 K • Completed
Yeorok was engulfed in a profound sense of despair. He silently closed his eyes and then opened them again. “…….” The person before him was indeed Sim Eunho, the very being he had so desperately longed to reclaim. Yet this reaction was entirely unforeseen. He had anticipated that upon regaining his full faculties, Eunho would unleash all his accumulated resentment upon him. Yeorok had steeled himself to accept it all, to soothe those wounds with unwavering resolve. But reality was…- 258.7 K • Completed
“Where is he?” As soon as Yeorok got home, he asked for Eunho out of habit. “He is in the library.” The answer was short. Since a new guard had been assigned, the existing guards had barely been able to do their jobs. That was largely because Eunho had kept them from coming anywhere near him. By using the new guard as a shield, slipping away at every turn, and even locking his door completely, Eunho left the old guards with nothing more than the ability to keep track of where Sim Eunho…- 258.7 K • Completed
In the spacious conference room, a long, dark mahogany table stretched out. At each seat, the solemn faces of high-ranking executives were visible. A board meeting was in progress. Amid the solemn atmosphere, countless eyes exchanged glances. And the end of every glance always led to the young man seated at the head of the table. Choi Yeorok was unusually quiet today. His tightly shut lips showed no sign of opening. But that didn't mean he wasn’t listening to the meeting. The directors, burdened by…- 258.7 K • Completed
