# 15
15th episode of “Real Man”.
I called him right away because I was curious, and I was able to recall the memories of the military through conversation with him.
Do you remember when we drank at the gym after the last show?
“I remember. I was amazed that ice came out of the vending machine, so I kept eating it.”
It’s still unfair to think that I lost rock-paper-scissors to you.
I don’t know what’s so unfair, but time has passed since we shared memories in this way.
Today is a wonderful day.
I talked on the phone for more than 30 minutes with my junior at school who just started talking to me and didn’t even remember eating and drinking coffee alone.
It was the first time in Yoo Hyun’s life that he spent time like this when he was not from work or people who should look good.
I could see why people were making such unnecessary chatter.
Yeah, let’s have a big drink that evening.
“Okay.”
That’s how the call ended.
From Jung Hyun-woo to Park Young-hoon, new relationships were with Yoo Hyun’s life.
Perhaps Yoo-hyun’s flapping of wings to live differently is already changing his life.
In a space with a subtle atmosphere, middle-aged Yoo-hyun was bending down to receive a glass.
A man sitting across the table was looking down at Yoo-hyun with a smile on his mouth.
Congratulations, Vice President Han.No, I should call you President Han Yoo-hyun now.
Thank you, Chairman.
I’m going to thank you.I’m here because CEO Han held my hand.
-…….
It was the path chosen to succeed faster, and Yoo Hyun’s choice was not wrong.
His third son, who is much younger than him, has become the chairman of a huge group called Hansung, pushing out a powerful first.
Thanks to this, Yoo-hyun enjoyed a lot on the side of the winner, but those who were with Yoo-hyun in the past had to go back bitterly as losers.
Since then, under the newly inaugurated chairman, Yoo has had to make several harsh decisions.
Many people were sacrificed, but he also thought it was the way for the company.
No matter how much I masturbated, there was no way I could feel comfortable.
I can’t get this kind of feeling out of course.
Yoo-hyun quickly put on a mask and smiled around his mouth.
What have I done?It’s all thanks to you.
Hahaha, I feel good to hear that from CEO Han.Let’s drink as much as we want today.Isn’t it a happy day?
Yes, sir.
As soon as I was about to hand over the glass, the alcohol in the glass floated and something came to mind.
Photographs of Kwon Se-joong’s portrait, howling families, and the faces of his old colleagues who were struggling passed by quickly.
Surprised, Yoo-hyun dropped the glass he was holding.
The chairman’s expression came in in a situation that was moving like slow motion.
The mouth is smiling, and the eyes are as cold as poisonous snakes.
The glass touched the floor as soon as I got goosebumps.
It’s clink.
“Oh my god!”
Yoo-hyun, who opened his eyes in surprise, quickly looked around.
I saw the appearance of a small living room.
“… Is it a dream?”
It seems that the body has adapted to the current reality after several days.
Seeing that you can call decades of memory just a dream.
I still have mixed thoughts about what is a dream and reality.
Yoo Hyun, who stood up with her throbbing forehead, gulped down cold water.
Only then did my head clear a little.
“Ha…….Are you glad?”
Yoo-hyun, who talked to himself, looked at the clock.
5:30 in the morning.
It’s time to wake up as always.
I resent the body that moves according to old habits.
He even laughed when he was getting ready to run naturally.
What can I do?
I’m frustrated, so I’m going to run.
In the end, Yoo-hyun left the house.
The habit I maintained to build up my physical strength for 20 years has not changed, but there are many changes.
It is not a small change, such as running on a river road, not the usual Hangang road, or not eating red ginseng that you eat when you open your eyes.
First of all, I feel very light.
When he first started running after returning, he looked rather dull, but his body quickly adjusted, and now he is showing his physical strength in his 20s without regret.
It certainly hit me that youth is a gangster.
And one of the biggest changes.
“Let’s run together, brother.”
There is someone who runs with me, not alone.
Yoo Hyun was always comfortable being alone.
This is because whatever choice you make is the fastest and most efficient.
Still, the mind preferred to be alone.
But now I intend to change.
Yoo-hyun slowed down to meet Jung Hyun-woo’s footsteps because he did not want an empty life like before.
“You need to build up your physical strength.When I go to work like this, I can’t work because I’m running out of energy.”
“Oh, my. You look like you’ve been to a company before.””
“I’m just saying.Shall we take a break?”
“Yes, gasp.”
Sweat-soaked, Jung Hyun-woo picked up a plastic water bottle on the bench.
His trembling hands showed that he had run out of stamina.
At the moment Yoo-hyun smirked, Jung Hyun-woo’s slippery hand caught my eye.
“It’s falling.”
The water bottle moved away from his hands with symptoms of the expanded wrist muscles, open fingers, and flinching shoulders.
“Uh, uh, uh.”
He was in a hurry to catch it again, but there was no way he could catch it.
As soon as the bucket was about to touch the floor, Yoo-hyun’s foot, who was there first, supported it.
When I lowered my foot to match the falling speed and raised my toes, the water bottle was accurately caught between my ankle and the top of my foot.
Yoo Hyun grabbed the water bottle that was lightly kicked and handed it back to Jung Hyun-woo.
“Here, hold tight and drink.Don’t shake your hands for no reason.”
“What? Oh, yes…….”
Jung Hyun-woo looks dumbfounded.
After drinking water, he stuttered as if his surprise still hadn’t calmed down.
“Oh, how can I get it?”You’re so athletic.”
“What. It’s because I saw it fall.”
“That’s true running, too.You’re amazing. You’re the best.”
He doesn’t stop talking with his thumb up to his thumb.
Running is really nothing.
Jung Hyun-woo certainly tended to overdo it.
Oh, and by the way.
“Did your athletic ability get better?”’
As a young body, it was natural that he had good physical strength and muscle strength.
But something was different.
I remembered the other day when I was dealing with a self-harm rackete
What is it?
The exact substance was still elusive.
Anyway, I felt confident that I could do any kind of exercise well because my body was light.
What should I learn?’
Suddenly, I think about doing other sports besides running.
There are two weeks until the interview announcement and a month until the training of new employees, so it would be good to look for it slowly.
after the exercise
Yoo Hyun took Jung Hyun-woo to a rice soup restaurant.
Jung Hyun-woo was still looking at Yoo Hyun with respect.
“Hyung, I think you really live a cool life.”At school, too.”
“What?”
No way.
I went around alone, but I didn’t even look good.
“Bro, you were really cool when you presented your management strategy assignment.No one can answer the professor’s question, but you did everything.I wanted to be friends with him since then.Hehe.”
“Did I?”
Honestly, I don’t really remember.
All I remember from school is just trying hard.
Perhaps, seeing him talk like that, he seemed to have made it through the situation in a timely manner.
Just like the company announcement.
We were talking about this and that and the meal came out.
“The rice soup is here.”
“Thank you, auntie.I was so hungry.I think it’s going to be really good.”
“Hohoho, the young bachelor speaks so beautifully.Enjoy the song.”
The lady who was carrying rice soup replied with a bright smile to Jeong Hyun-woo’s greeting.
Yoo Hyun looked at Jung Hyun-woo, who spoke kindly to everyone she met.
There is no pretense in expression and action.
It is natural to treat people as if they were wearing tight-fitting clothes.
Even people who see it for the first time laugh in front of Jung Hyun-woo.
It is impressive to see him hanging out with people so quickly that it feels like a long relationship.
He is a completely different type of person from Yoo Hyun.
I lived a cool life?’
I don’t think the life that ran fiercely forward was cool.
I don’t want to go back to the path of success where there is not a single grass left in the past.
Rather, Yoo Hyun thought that Jung Hyun-woo, who mingles with people and gives them a happy smile, is living a cooler life.
“Bro, enjoy your meal.Hehe.”
“Yes, enjoy your meal.”
Yoo Hyun raised the corners of his mouth while looking at Jung Hyun-woo, who smiled.
I think I got a hint about how to live.
After returning, Yoo Hyun sat in front of the computer and watched the news like a habit.
There was a thick monitor in front, not a tablet.
In addition, cold water, not coffee from the machine, was on the table, but it didn’t matter.
The seriousness of looking at the news is no different from before.
Watching the pouring news, especially IT-related news, I feel once again that I have returned to the past.
Large companies like dinosaurs have disappeared without a trace, and now companies that are not even in the news are aiming for the top of the world.
Yoo Hyun was at the center of the electronics industry, which rapidly changed year by year.
The anxiety that he would fall behind even a little always captivated him.
I didn’t want to put down my heavy luggage.
Rather, I became more greedy and kept wanting more.
When I look back, it’s nothing…….
Yoo Hyun, who suddenly remembered the old days, shook her head and got up from her seat.
This is to avoid following the workaholic past.
“A little more relaxed.”
Yoo-hyun repeated to himself as if he were hypnotizing, but his eyes turned to the monitor.
It’s scary to see habits like this.
“Oh, my.”
It was the moment when Yoo Hyun turned off the monitor screen.
(Singing)
The cell phone on the desk rang and Yoo-hyun’s body flinched at the same time.
“CEO?”
Because the only person to call at this time is the chairman.
For a moment, I got goosebumps when I remembered him in my dream.
“Ah……”
Yoo-hyun breathed a sigh of relief when he picked up his folding phone and realized that he recalled his past memories like a habit.
On a small LCD window, not a large screen, “Father” appeared in the name of the sender.
Are you up?
“Of course, of course.Did you eat?”
Yeah, I ate it.
Why did my father call me in the morning?
Although we got a lot closer, I was worried because there was no way to call first.
I felt more anxious about my father’s voice after a pause.
But I heard a voice that I didn’t expect at all.
Thank you, Yoo Hyun.
“What?”
– About the idol construction.
“Oh, that?”
Only then did I understand my father’s contact.
My father tried to hold back his excitement and continued.
– I looked into it closely and it seemed like there were some problems.That’s why I decided not to do it.
“That’s a relief.”
All Yoo Hyun did was insinuate the problem.
I didn’t think I’d appreciate it.
However, Yoo-hyun could understand his mind from his father’s words that followed.
Yoo-hyun’s changed attitude even changed his father.
I think I’ve been so nervous.But thanks to you, I was able to relax.Thank you.
“No, Father.Thank you very much, too.”
I hung up the phone by saying thank you to each other several times.
Yoohyeon was in a daze.
This is because I have never received a phone call from my father in the morning, and I have never heard of thank you.
“This is what happens again.”
A small change was changing Yoohyeon’s entire life.
My chest.
My chest.
He’s running.
“All right.”
I gained positive confidence through the phone call with my father.
Yoo Hyun decided to change more actively.
As Jung Hyun-woo did, he thought he would approach not only family and friends but also those who pass by.
I greeted them more kindly, paid attention, and thanked them.
The series of processes seemed easy, but it was not easy for Yoo Hyun.
It was an effort against the individualism-based values that have been formed so far.
It is also true that I thought that I had to do this.
However, Yoo-hyun realized as he looked at the gradually changing surroundings.
First, let’s open our minds and approach them, and even the invisible relationship becomes abundant.
