It was almost Christmas . Gun-Ho wanted to spend Christmas Day with Young-Eun this year . Gun-Ho sent a text message to her .
[I’d like to spend this Christmas Eve with you . I will be waiting for you at Starbucks in Daehakro at 6 pm . ]
Young-Eun replied .
[I’m going to my father’s in Sillim Town on Christmas Eve . I think we should reschedule our next meeting . ]
Gun-Ho immediately sent another text to Young-Eun .
[That’s even better . I will go to your father’s in Sillim Town then on Christmas Eve . I’d like to meet your father . ]
Young-Eun didn’t reply to Gun-Ho’s last text message .
Gun-Ho reread his text that he sent to Young-Eun while wondering if he said anything inappropriate or if he sounded rude . He felt nervous again . He then remembered what the first sergeant in the military told him when he was in service .
“You should sleep with the girl first who you want to have . That’s the most efficient way to get a girlfriend . Girls are so calculating that they can move on to another man at any time when they think they found a better man . You, a naïve idiot, probably won’t be able to do it, will you?”
Gun-Ho wanted to abruptly hug and kiss Young-Eun Kim without asking her consent just like he did with Mori Aikko and Seol-Bing . But, it wouldn’t seem to be going well that way with Young-Eun . He didn’t want to ruin what he had with Young-Eun right now .
“She measured my ring finger the other day . That means she wants to marry me . How come she doesn’t move forward?”
Gun-Ho thought of Mori Aikko .

Whenever Gun-Ho sent a text message to Mori Aikko, she seemed to be extremely delighted to hear from him . She seemed to be always ready to come to Gun-Ho whenever he asked her to .
“Mori Aikko must be lonely . She probably doesn’t even have many friends since she didn’t properly go to school . ”
Gun-Ho went to the Galleria Department Store in Apgujeong Town and purchased a women’s winter outfit . He then mailed it to Mori Aikko’s condo in Daikanyama .
After sending a gift to her, Gun-Ho felt better . But it didn’t last long . He saw the news on the Internet through his smartphone about Seol-Bing . It said that Seol-Bing was seeing a male singer, and her mother refused to approve their relationship .
“I already gave up on having a relationship with Seol-Bing, but how come I am feeling uneasy right now . I don’t really care whether she sees a singer or even marries him . But I don’t feel comfortable for some reason . ”
Gun-Ho was in his bed and ready to sleep when he received a text message from Young-Eun .
[Please come to Dongbu Condo no . 2-xxx in Sillim Town on December 24, at 6 pm . ]
Gun-Ho had a sweet dream that night . He felt a sense of relief .
The next morning, Gun-Ho gave a call to his mother .
“Mom, how have you been? Is everything okay?”
“Yeah, everything is good here . How are you?”
“How are you feeling? How’s your spine?”

“It’s good . I’m wearing a back support belt all the time . I’m having a normal daily life without any problem . ”
“That’s really good to hear, mom . How’s dad?”
“Your dad? He is good too except he eats too much . ”
“Mom, I am seeing someone . ”
“What? You are seeing a girl? I’m so happy to hear that, son . What is she doing for a living?”
“Actually, you have met her, mom . ”
“Really? Who is it?”
“I will bring her home early next year . ”
“Tell me more, son . Don’t torture me . What’s her occupation? How old is she?”
“She is six years younger than me . She goes to a hospital for work . ”
“Hospital? Is she a nurse? It’s good that she is six years younger than you . I didn’t know you would be able to find someone on your own . Hahaha . ”
“She is not a nurse . ”

“Then what? Is she a staff in the administrative office in a hospital?”
“I will tell you later mom . Just know that I will bring her home soon . ”
“I want to meet her as soon as possible . ”
About an hour later, Gun-Ho received a call from his sister .
“Gun-Ho, mom told me that you are seeing someone? Is it true? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
“I started seeing her very recently, sister . ”
“I heard she goes to a hospital for work . Is she a nurse? Mom said she is probably an office worker in a hospital . ”
“Our relationship hasn’t developed far enough for marriage yet . I will let you know once I’m sure that we are going in the marriage direction . ”
“I actually had someone who I wanted to introduce to you . Well, if you found someone already, then that’s good . So, she is six years younger than you, huh? I’m sure you like that . Where is she from? Where did she grow up?”
“She is from Seoul City . ”
“You should bring her home so mom and dad can meet her . I want to see her too . ”
“Yeah . I will let you know . ”
Young-Eun’s father actually wanted his daughter to marry another medical doctor . He hoped that his daughter would meet someone in the same field that she was in . He didn’t like a businessman for his daughter’s husband . He believed that running a business was not a stable job, and there should be too many ups and downs that he would bring into life . That’s why Artist Choi, who was his sister-in-law, had a hard time convincing Young-Eun’s father to accept Gun-Ho as his son-in-law .
“I want Young-Eun to meet someone in the same medical field . So, they can have a stable life together and understand each other better . ”
“Young-Eun is the one who would marry him, not you . You can’t keep her on your side forever . She will soon turn 31 years old . 31, did you hear that? She’d better marry now when she had a decent man to marry . ”
“I heard that guy is running a business . I don’t like it . A lot of businessmen end up filing for bankruptcy . ”
“Many medical doctors file for bankruptcy too . He is not just a businessman . I heard that he has more than 100 billion won . It’s not easy to lose that much money . ”
“But still…”
“Have you seen Hyundai or Samsung file for bankruptcy? A man should take some risk in vigorously leading his life; he can do business or he can even do politics . What’s the point seeking only for stability in life? You had a stable job as a teacher in an elementary school, and you did have a stable life . So what? You haven’t experienced a rich life, have you?”
“Well…, on the bright side, he is a self-made successful man . That’s good . ”
“Right . The wealth that he has right now is not something that was easily passed on to him . He earned that wealth by himself . He won’t lose his wealth; he will rather grow it . If Young-Eun likes him, then you should let her go . I talked with Young-Eun, and I think she likes him too . Young-Eun is coming to see you on this Christmas Day, isn’t she? Why don’t you ask her to bring that man?”
“Okay . I can meet him . That’s not a problem at all . I don’t understand how a young man could possibly make 100 billion won . That’s a mystery . ”
“Well, you can ask him when he comes to meet you . ”
