The office workers seemed to be satisfied with their new office . It was clean and luxurious . They walked around the office carefully not to damage anything . The production field looked good too . It was organized better than the one in the Asan factory .
Gun-Ho had the first meeting with managers and directors at the new building in Jiksan Town .
"How many employees did we lose due to the moving? I understand that there are some workers who said they wouldn't be able to commute to our new location . "
"We have all of the office workers, but many of lady workers in the production field quit the job . We lost about 30 workers from the production field only . "
"It shouldn't cause any problem to the production . Please post a job advertisement to fill the vacant positions immediately . We will have to encourage younger people to apply for the jobs, so please list the benefits we could provide them with the job posting . "
"Yes, sir . We will state that we provide lunch, commuter shuttle, a bonus of 400%, and financial aid for their children, etc . "
"Director Yoon, you can start demolishing the factory in Asan City . "
"The factory in Asan City?"
"Yes . "
"The Asan factory is old, but it still can be used . We don't have to demolish it . Why don't we just remodel it instead?"
"No, tear it down please . "
"Umm, okay, sir . "
"In Asan City, we will build a new factory that would look exactly the same as the factory here . That factory will be used for a joint venture with Lymondell Dyeon once it is confirmed . "
"Did you say a joint venture, sir?"
"It hasn't been confirmed yet, but Lymondell Dyeon is reviewing our application to do a joint venture with them . "
When the meeting was over, Gun-Ho received a call again from his family . They said they set up the meeting with that elementary school teacher for this coming Saturday . Gun-Ho's mother added,
"I decided to make you marry someone by the end of this year . "
After mother, Gun-Ho's sister called . She gave Gun-Ho the place where Gun-Ho was supposed to meet with the girl .
"You will have to come to the café at Ramada Songdo Hotel this Saturday at 2 pm . The school teacher lady will be there . You should come without question, okay?"

Gun-Ho didn't know what to say, but he felt curious at the same time .
"Who knows? Maybe I will meet a lady who I've always dreamt about . "
Gun-Ho didn't want to upset his family, so he said yes that he would come to see the girl . Gun-Ho thought that he would have to meet Chairman Lee after he met with the elementary school teacher .
Two books written by Japanese authors were published by GH Media . These books were about self-development . President Jeong-Sook Shin sent these two books to Gun-Ho's office .
They were thin books with about 250 pages .
"Who would read a book like this?"
Gun-Ho called for an accounting manager; she was a lady who Gun-Ho thought might be interested in reading a book like this .
"We just published this book by GH Media . Who do you think would buy this kind of book to read?"
"Wow, it's a new book . It's still warm . "
The accounting manager smelled the book .
"People prefer to read a thin book like this these days . If a book is thick, they don't want to even pick it up from a bookshelf . "
"Really?"
"Can I try it first?"
"Of course, go ahead . "
The accounting manager seemed to be excited to take the book with her .
It was Saturday .
Gun-Ho drove to Ramada Songdo Hotel in Incheon . There were three ladies sitting at the café while waiting for Gun-Ho .

"Hey, Gun-Ho, over here . "
Gun-Ho's sister recognized Gun-Ho first . There were two other ladies sitting with his sister; one was in her 40s and the other one was in her late 20s or early 30s . Gun-Ho could know intuitively that the lady in her 40s was Jeong-Ah's homeroom teacher and the other younger lady was the one who Gun-Ho was supposed to meet with .
"Hello . "
"How's traffic? Please have a seat here . This is the lady I was talking about . "
The older lady made such a fuss .
"Oh, you look so handsome . I was wondering who would be that good-looking man entering the café, and it was the person we were supposed to meet here . "
Gun-Ho's sister seemed to get her hair done for today, and she was wearing a very colorful outfit . She certainly looked different than those days when she worked at a factory with depressed face . She looked more like a lady from a loyal family . Money did some magic .
The young lady in her early 30s looked up to Gun-Ho quietly . Gun-Ho was looking down at her while still standing . She didn't look very attractive to him .
Gun-Ho's sister introduced two ladies to Gun-Ho .
"This is Jeong-Ah's homeroom teacher, and this lady here is the one who I talked to you about . She graduated from Gyeongin National University of Education . She is very popular in school . Students love her . "
"Nice to meet you . "
Gun-Ho said placidly .
Jeong-Ah's homeroom teacher said,
"Your brother looks different from you . I thought he was a movie star . Sir, you are running your own business, right?"
"Yes, I am . "
"What sort of business do you have? I've heard from your sister that you have an auto parts factory . "
Gun-Ho's sister stopped her there .
"Let's stop here . We'd better let them talk to each other alone . "
"Oh, that's right . Haha . I just wanted to get to know him . He is so handsome . "
Jeong-Ah's homeroom teacher stood up to leave along with Gun-Ho's sister .

"Okay, we will leave you two here then . Good luck to you two . "
After two ladies left the scene, Gun-Ho was sitting with the lady who was in her 30s . Gun-Ho couldn't think of anything to talk about with her .
"Please have some tea . "
"Okay . "
The lady seemed that she didn't know what to say either because she was just fiddling with her cup of coffee .
"Did you study the Chinese language in college?"
"No, I majored in accounting . "
"I was told that you went to a college in China . "
"Yes, that's correct . "
Gun-Ho felt like people sitting at the next table were glancing at them . Gun-Ho wanted to leave the café . Gun-Ho started fiddling his cup of coffee as well without saying a word .
Gun-Ho thought he had to say something because otherwise, he could look so rude to her .
"Is Incheon City your hometown?"
"No, my hometown is Suwon City . "
"Do you commute from Suwon then?"

"I stay in a OneRoomTel during weekdays in Incheon and go back to my home in Suwon on weekends . "
"Oh, I see . "
Gun-Ho couldn't find any other question to make a conversation with her, and he let out a slight sigh .
'I wish the lady who is sitting in front of me was Mori Aikko . '
Gun-Ho thought of Mori Aikko who was smiling at him .
Gun-Ho felt pressured that he had to say something to the lady .
"How long have you worked as a teacher?"
"It has been five years . "
"You get used to teaching children by now then . "
The lady lifted her head and laughed . It was the first time Gun-Ho saw her laughing . Gun-Ho didn't think his wife had to be pretty, but he really didn't like this lady who was sitting in front of him . It seemed that the lady knew Gun-Ho wasn't attracted to her .
"Maybe we should be going now . "
"Sounds good . "
Gun-Ho stood up and then the lady stood up to leave . She was surprisingly short . Mori Aikko was short, but this lady was way shorter than Mori Aikko .
"It must be hard to teach children, right?"
"No, it's okay . It's doable . "
The lady seemed to be disappointed . She expected Gun-Ho to ask her to have dinner or take a walk or something, but he didn't suggest anything . Gun-Ho felt sorry for her because all he could think of was Mori Aikko .
"Maybe I am too into a geisha . I might lose my opportunity to meet a great girl because of a geisha . "
Gun-Ho then thought,
"Nah . I want a girl who is at least average looking and a bit taller than her . "
Gun-Ho asked the lady .
"Where are you heading to after this meeting?"
"I need to meet with my friend . I am heading to Bupyeong District . "
"Oh, you do? I am supposed to meet with my friends in Seoul too . "
Gun-Ho laughed and the lady laughed along with him .
That was the end of Gun-Ho's first meeting with a girl, set up by his family, and that didn't go well .
