"Yes, they are . My father became a person with a bad credit score as well . He hadn't done well with his work either . "
"Hmm . "
When Gun-Ho was thinking for a moment, Jae-Sik started talking again .
"I'm sorry, Gun-Ho . I understand you can't really say anything to me . I guess I asked you too much . All my other friends I called earlier, they just hung up on me as soon as they heard my voice . But you listened to me . I appreciate that . Thank you . I will let you go then . "
Jae-Sik was about to hang up the phone when Gun-Ho quickly said,
"Hold on!"
Gun-Ho didn't let Jae-Sik hang up the phone .
"Come down to Asan City . . . I mean, to Jiksan Town, in Cheonan City . "
"Jiksan Town?"
"Yeah, Jiksan Town in Cheonan City . "
"Whew . I don't even have money for bus fare . Why do you want me there?"
"Take a subway to Jiksan Town . You might find a place to work there . "
"Nah, I don't think so . Since I have a bad credit score, no one would hire me . Even though someone hires me, my salary will be seized . "
"Just trust me on this, okay? Come to Jiksan Town . "
"You have something like OneRoomTel there?"
"Just come, okay? I will see you at the Jiksan station at noon tomorrow . "
"Okay… Thank you . "
The next morning, when he arrived at his office, Gun-Ho called for the accounting manager .
"If a person with a bad score got a job, will all of his salary be seized?"
"Not exactly . They will seize his wage after subtracting his basic living expenses . "
"How much would the basic living expenses?"
"It would be probably 1 million won or 1 . 2 million won . I don't have the exact figures . It should be around that amount . "

"So, if a person with a bad credit score is being paid 2 million won per month, and if that person's basic living expenses are 1 . 2 million won, then 800,000 won will be seized . "
"That's right . "
"Hmm . "
"We used to have a lady worker here in the production department, whose salary is being seized . "
"Really?"
"She at first asked us to pay the salary with her mother's name to her mother's bank . However, we didn't do it . That is illegal . "
"Hmm . "
"That worker eventually quit the job . "
"Hmm . I see . "
Gun-Ho did a cursory review of the report in the morning before he headed to Jiksan Town . When he entered into the construction site of his factory in Jiksan Town, Director Yoon who was wearing a safety helmet and boots ran to Gun-Ho .
"Sir . "
"They dug up deep . "
"Yes, they are going to put reinforcement steel there . "
"Are those workers over there on a salary?"
"Some of them are paid on a salary, but many of them are paid daily by the subcontracting company . "
"Hmm . "
"Do you have something you want to tell me, sir?"
"No, never mind . "
Gun-Ho met Jae-Sik Moon at the Jiksan Station .
Gun-Ho almost couldn't recognize Jae-Sik and so did Jae-Sik .
Jae-Sik looked shabby and old; he looked like he was in his 40s . Moreover, he probably lost some weight; he looked small .

Jae-Sik couldn't recognize Gun-Ho at a glance . In his memory, Gun-Ho was a poor and shy kid from a poor family . He couldn't belong to any group in high school . However, Gun-Ho now looked totally different . He looked confident and did indeed look like a president of some company .
"It has been a really long time, Gun-Ho . I almost couldn't recognize you . "

Jae-Sik smiled but he looked sad .
"So do I . You changed a lot, Jae-Sik . "
"How's your business with OneRoomTels?"
"It's going well . Jae-Sik, are you interested in working at a factory?"
"A factory? No one would hire me, and all of my salary will be seized . "
"I actually have a factory, so I can give you a position . Also, I think I can do something about your salary seizure problem . "
"Really?"
Jae-Sik seemed to be very interested now .
Gun-Ho took Jae-Sik in his car and went to an ox bone soup restaurant in Jiksan Town, close to Dong Seoul University .
"Let's have lunch first before we go to the factory . "
Jae-Sik seemed to enjoy the ox bone soup a lot .
"Can I order one more bowl of cooked rice?"
"Of course . Eat as much as you want . I just need one bowl of cooked rice . "
Gun-Ho looked closely at Jae-Sik who was having the ox bone soup . His jacket and shoes were old and shabby . Gun-Ho could see Jae-Sik's harsh life through his appearance .
'I can't believe this is that Jae-Sik Moon who was so talented and passionately participated in the literature club in high school . He was the best student in that club . '
After lunch, Gun-Ho headed to Asan City with Jae-Sik .
Jae-Sik didn't say anything on the way, and Gun-Ho also didn't say anything because he couldn't think of anything to talk about . Gun-Ho was thinking about what he should do with Jae-Sik; he could be troubling .

When they arrived at Gun-Ho's factory in Asan City, Jae-Sik was shocked . There were so many people working there with so many heavy equipments . He looked around the factory with his mouth open . Gun-Ho didn't take Jae-Sik to his office, but instead, he took him to a small meeting room . He then asked for the production manager—Jong-Suk Park .
"Jong-Suk, do you remember Jae-Sik Moon? He used to live in a house with a blue-colored front door . This is him . "
"Well, I think I saw him once, but I don't remember much about him . "
Jong-Suk couldn't really remember Jae-Sik . Jong-Suk used to hang out with outgoing people like Suk-Ho Lee who was now running a bar in Gyeongridan Street . Jae-Sik used to spend a lot of time at home .
"Are you the son of the restaurant owner in Bupyeong District?"
Jae-Sik seemed to remember Jong-Suk .
Gun-Ho asked Jong-Suk,
"Is there any position that Jae-Sik could work in the production department?"
"There are plenty of positions available, but the question is whether this bro can handle the work . "
"Hmm . "
Gun-Ho asked for the general affairs manager .
"This is someone I know well, and he wants to work at our factory . Do you know any good position he could take?"
The general affairs manager asked Jae-Sik,
"Do you have any particular skills certificate?"
"No, I don't . "
"You do have a driver's license, right?"
"It's suspended after I got involved in a car accident . "
The general affairs manager suggested Gun-Ho,
"We have one open position for a security guard for the night shift . I think he can handle that work . "
"Okay . Why don't you give him a list of papers he needs to prepare? Jong-Suk, find a place to stay for Jae-Sik . A OneRoomTel is good as well . "
"Yes, sir . "
The general affairs manager and Jong-Suk answered at once .
Jae-Sik seemed to feel better when he heard Gun-Ho asking Jong-Suk to find a place to stay for him .
Jae-Sik walked out of the meeting room with the general affairs manager .
Once Gun-Ho sent Jae-Sik to the general affairs manager's office, he came back to his office .
There was a missed call from Attorney Young-Jin Kim from Kim&Jeong Law Office on his cell phone .
Gun-Ho made a call to Attorney Kim .
"I'm sorry that I missed your call . "
"You must be very busy, huh?"
"I'm good now . What's up?"
"I just received a call from Amiel in Tokyo . "
"Really?"
"He was asking if you already develop the new product—AM083 . He said you showed him the product drawing last time . "
"How can we develop the product already? Dyeon didn't even give us an opportunity to make a sample product . "
"Amiel said he has someone he wanted to recommend you meet with in order to resolve that problem . "
"Recommending someone? Who is it?"
"He is a Japanese engineer who used to work for Dyeon in the U . S . He is now retired . He used to be the best engineer in Dyeon . "
"Oh, really?"
"Amiel was asking if you want to get some advice from that engineer . "
"Of course . I really need any help now . "
"Okay, then . I will let Amiel know that you want that engineer . "
