Gun-Ho received a call from Jae-Sik Moon .

“The landowner next door decided to sell the farmland to us for 900 million won . I’m heading to the realtor’s office right now to make the sales and purchase contract . ”

“Hmm, really? He finally made the decision, huh? You have enough funds to make the contract, right? I will transfer 900 million won tomorrow since the bank is already closed today . ”

“The landowner will take care of the permit to buy farmland for us . ”

“Really? That’s nice . ”

“It’s March already . I think it’s a good season to condition the soil and improve the soil quality . Well, I guess I don’t have to be hearing that old man’s complaints anymore . I’ve stressed a lot whenever he complained about oils leaking into his land . ”

“Since we currently have 1,000 pyung for the business, once we add the land next door, the entire land would total 2,500 pyung . ”

“Once we combine those two parcels, it would look great with the widened roadside . I think we can do some actual farming there . Well, I’m kidding . ”

“Once you pay for the land, start the process for the land use change . ”

“Okay . ”

“How’s the business doing?”

“We are doing container shipping work for the customs agency which Dyeon Korea has been working with . Because of this new addition to our current workload, our revenue is on the rise . Since we are managing several trucks, we see several minor fender-benders, no surprise there; it’s understandable . The good thing is that we haven’t had any personal injuries . The snow season is over . I feel so relieved . Snow is a huge hindrance to a transportation business . ”

“It’s good to hear that you spent your first winter season without having any personal injuries . ”

“I will let you know once the land purchase transaction is completed . ”

“Okay . ”

Gun-Ho sent the formal gift for the bride to Young-Eun’s father’s home in Sillim Town . He decided to omit some Korean traditional wedding procedures since Young-Eun’s mother was not present, and he was not a young groom . Young-Eun liked it better that way .

Once she received the gift, Young-Eun sent cash to Gun-Ho’s parents’ home as part of the Korean traditional wedding procedure . Gun-Ho’s mother said while looking at the cash, “We won’t accept this much . We just need to get dress suits for your father, myself, and your sister’s couple . We won’t get anything for your aunt . She didn’t give us anything when her son— Jae-Woong married anyway . ”

Gun-Ho’s mother returned half of the cash back to Young-Eun .

Gun-Ho was thinking who he would ask to officiate his wedding .

“Who should I ask? I really wanted Chairman Lee from Cheongdam Town to officiate my wedding . ”

Gun-Ho already went to see Chairman Lee to ask him to officiate his wedding, but he refused to do so . His reasoning was,

“I’m not qualified to officiate anyone’s wedding . I used to work as a hard money lender . The people who still remember my past would laugh at me and probably laugh at you as well . They wouldn’t approve your choice of having me officiate your wedding . ”

“I don’t care about others, sir . I truly admire you . ”

“I’ve never done it before . Weddings are a sacred ceremony . You need to find someone who everyone approves and admires, and ask him to officiate your wedding . ”

Since Gun-Ho didn’t graduate from a normal 4-year college in Korea, he didn’t have any college professor to ask for it . He wouldn’t be able to ask a pastor to do so since he was an atheist .

‘Maybe I can marry without an officiator . I can ask Min-Hyeok Kim or Jae-Sik Moon to lead the wedding ceremony . Many people marry without an officiator these days . Or, maybe I should ask Young-Eun to ask one of her professors from her school— Medical School of Seoul National University . Well, I don’t want her to think that I’m not even capable of finding an appropriate officiator like I don’t have a good social network or anything like that . ’

Gun-Ho kept trying to find a solution . Getting married was not an easy process . It seemed to require constant problem solving, one after another . Gun-Ho’s parents wouldn’t know anyone either .

“Well, maybe I should ask the class president of the Advanced Center for Administrative Development . Can an incumbent minister preside a wedding?”

It was the day when Gun-Ho had a class at the Advanced Center for Administrative Development . Gun-Ho waited for the class president at the parking lot .

When he saw the class president— Mr . Jin-Woo Lee getting off his black Genesis, he called him .

“Mr . Class President!”

“Oh, Mr . Class Manager?!”

“I have something to ask you . ”

“Me?”

“Well, I’m getting married on March 18th . ”

“Oh, really? I didn’t know you were still single . ”

“I have a favor to ask you, sir . I was wondering if you could preside over my wedding . ”

“Me? I usually don’t officiate a wedding . ”

“If you could, I would really appreciate it . I insist . ”

“I might have a prior engagement to play golf on March 18th . ”

“After the wedding, I will take you to a nice golf field . I sometimes go to Japan or China to have a round of golf . ”

Gun-Ho and the class president started walking toward the classroom while continuing talking .

“What kind of business did you say you were running?”

“It’s a manufacturing company for automobile parts . ”

“What’s the sales revenue?”

“We made about 80 billion won last year . ”

“Hmm, really?”

“If you like golfing, I know several nice country clubs in Japan and China to show you . ”

“I’ve been to Japan several times, but not to China . ”

“There are wonderful golf fields in China where you can enjoy the ocean view while playing golf, or in a mountain with snow . ”

“Haha, really?”

“If you happen to go to China, I can show you around . I actually graduated from college in China . ”

“Oh, really? Then you probably can speak Chinese . ”

“Of course, I can . ”

“You said your wedding will be on March 18th? Where is the wedding venue?”

“It’s in the Hilton Hotel across the street from Seoul Station . ”

“Oh, I know that place . I go there sometimes . I am often invited to a breakfast seminar there as a speaker . Well, I wouldn’t do it if it wasn’t for you . I will do it . It’s not your second wedding, is it?”

“Hahaha . No, sir . It’s my very first wedding . ”

Gun-Ho, who didn’t even graduate college in Korea and who used to work as a factory worker, finally found someone who would preside over his wedding . Gun-Ho felt relieved and let out a deep sigh .

It was Sunday . Gun-Ho went to Starbucks in Daehakro to meet Young-Eun . Young-Eun seemed to lose some weight . She was probably stressed a lot as well because of the upcoming wedding .

“It’s stressful, isn’t it? You lost some weight . ”

“You too, oppa . ”

“Let’s eat something very nutritious today . ”

“Let’s go eat pork belly . There is a restaurant in Myeongryoon Town, which provides indefinite refills . ”

“A meat restaurant that offers indefinite refills usually doesn’t have high-quality meat . Let’s go to a restaurant that uses only Korean pork . ”

“I know one . It’s close to the traditional market around Hansung University . I’ve been there once with my friends . ”

Gun-Ho followed Young-Eun to a restaurant . It was located at the entrance of a traditional Korean market . It looked old and shabby . They had a sign hanging on the wall, which clearly said ‘Korean pork only . ’

“Haha . Mr . President, do you think you can eat here?”

“I do like a restaurant like this one . ”

Gun-Ho ordered a bottle of soju along with pork dishes .

“You brought your car today . Don’t you need to drive?”

“I want to drink today . I can call a paid designated driver . ”

“Do you have a number to call them?”

“It’s right here . ”

Gun-Ho pointed to a note attached to the wall . It had a number for a paid designated driver .
