Gun-Ho was talking with GH Mobile's President Jang-Hwan Song on the phone about the products that A Electronics requested .

"How many products do they want?"
"He was not sure about the volume of the product order because his job is not directly involved with product order . Since they are a research center, they only get involved in determining whether the product can be made or not . "
"Hmm, really?"
"He suggested talking with the plant manager of the factory in Dangjin City or Changwon City about the number of products and their prices . "
"I guess his part is to conduct a testing on the sample product that we will make . "
"I think so . "
"Who's going to pay for the product molds then?"
"He said they will pay for them . "
"Hmm, really? You went there with our research center's chief officer— Mr . Director Oh, right?"
"Yes, I did . "
"What did Mr . Director Oh say?"
"He said that it won't be difficult to make those products . "
"Okay, then . Good job . "
"A Electronics' chief officer of the research center seemed to be excited to see our Director Oh . He said that he always wanted to meet with one of the people who obtained their Ph . D . from the Technical University of Munich in Germany and who were in the automobile industry . In doing some research work, there seemed to be things that they could help each other with . "

"I see . That's good . "
"After lunch, we will head to their factory in Dangjin City right away . I will let you know once I meet with their plant manager . "
"Sounds good . "
Gun-Ho left his office for the lunch appointment with President Shin a bit later than noon because of the phone call from President Song . When Gun-Ho came down to the first floor at the building entrance, President Shin and Mr . Yoshitake Matsuda were waiting for him .
"I'm so sorry that I came down late . I had an important call that I had to take . "
"You said that we are going to the sushi restaurant across the street, right, sir?"
"Yes . "
The three people crossed the street and walked toward the alley in the direction of Nonhyeon Town . When they sat at the table at the sushi restaurant, Mr . Yoshitake Matsuda said, "This restaurant reminds me of Japan every time I come here . "
"Is it so? Please have sushi as much as you please . "
The first dish that came out was sliced raw flatfish . Gun-Ho dipped the piece of raw fish in a wasabi in soy sauce and put it in his mouth . It felt like it was melting in his mouth .
While having their sushi, Gun-Ho asked Mr . Yoshitake Matsuda, "How do you know Ms . President Ji-Yeon Choi in Akasaka, Tokyo?"
"It has been more than twenty years since I first met her . The day when I was assigned for the position as a newspaper correspondent in Korea, I went to that Korean restaurant . I wanted to experience some Korean culture before I leave for Korea, and the Korean restaurant seemed to be the right place to start it . That restaurant was a newly opened restaurant at that time . "
"Really?"

"When I went there, I was astonished . "
"For what?"
"I was astonished by the beauty of Ms . Ji-Yeon Choi . She is now an old lady, but twenty years ago, she was an amazingly beautiful woman . Lots of men went to the restaurant to see her in the old days . "
President Shin who was sitting at the table asked, "Who is Ms . President Ji-Yeon Choi?"
"She is a Korean lady owner president who is running a Korean restaurant in Tokyo . I believe that she is about the same age as you, Ms . President Shin . "
Mr . Yoshitake Matsuda continued his talk while having his sushi with seaweed, "Whenever I stay in Tokyo and when I have a guest from Korea, that restaurant was my first pick to go, and I went there pretty often . The newspaper that I worked for at that time did the marketing for that restaurant as well . That way, I became close to her . "
When Mr . Yoshitake Matsuda mentioned Tokyo, that reminded Gun-Ho of Mori Aikko .
'Since the weather is still too hot, she probably doesn't do her dance performance as much . What is she doing these days? When the weather becomes cooler, will she participate in Aki Matsuri (Fall Festival)?'
Noticing that Gun-Ho was lost in thought for a moment, President Shin said while placing a vegetable salad in front of Gun-Ho, "What are you thinking, sir? Please have some salad . "
"Huh? Oh, oh sure . "
Gun-Ho was thinking of asking Mr . Yoshitake Matsuda if he knew of Mamsan Segawa Joonkko, and then he decided against it . He didn't want to take a risk revealing his relationship with Mori Aikko, especially to President Shin .
Mr . Yoshitake Matsuda said while picking up a piece of shrimp sushi, "Oh, I talked with Mr . Sakata Ikuzo the other day . He wanted to treat you both, Mr . President Goo and Ms . President Shin when you have a chance to visit Japan . He was very happy with the earnings that he made with his art exhibition here . "
"Haha, really?"
After lunch, Gun-Ho came back to his office . After having a cup of coffee in his office, he fell asleep . When his secretary— Ms . Yeon-Soo Oh— came in the office to pick up the empty cup, Gun-Ho was already deep in sleep . His neck was weirdly folded to the side . Yeon-Soo Oh walked backwards to the front door trying not to make any sound .

Around thirty minutes later, Gun-Ho woke up feeling thirsty . He found a bottle of the beverage— Vita 500— under his desk . It was from a tenant company . Director Kang had brought a box of Vita 500 to Gun-Ho the other day saying that a new tenant dropped it to the office .
While having the beverage, Gun-Ho looked at the box of Vita 500 and thought, "If I fill this box with 50,000 won bills, how much would it hold?"
That thought often popped up in Gun-Ho's head whenever he saw a box of Vita 500 .
Gun-Ho made a call to his mother in Guweol Town, Incheon City .
"Mom? What are you doing?"
"I'm watching TV . One of my favorite soap operas is being re-aired right now . "
"Mom, Young-Eun is pregnant . "
"Young-Eun? Who is Young-Eun?"
"You don't know Young-Eun, mom? She is your daughter-in-law . "
"What? Your wife is pregnant?"
"Yeah . She already verified her pregnancy by having an ultrasound . She is about two months pregnant according to an ob-gyn . "
"Really? Really? Finally, you will be a father . Hahaha . "
"She is doing okay . She has no morning sickness or anything like that yet . "
"She will start it soon . You have to be good to her, especially during her pregnancy . The best thing that you could do for your wife is to stay with her . That's what most women want . "
"Really?"
"Just focus on her well-being, both physical and emotional . If she wants to eat something, you should get it for her . Don't let her do any hard physical work . Tell her to be extra careful when she drives . "
"She can take care of herself . "
"No, you can't just leave it to her . You have to actively help her . Oh, my goodness . I will soon have my own grandchild . "
"Well, mom, I just wanted to let you know that . I have to go now . I will call you later . "
It didn't take even thirty minutes until Gun-Ho received another call from his sister .
"Your wife is pregnant, huh?"
"News indeed flies fast, huh? Her ultrasound test said so . We are not 100% sure yet . "
"If the ultrasound said so, then she is pregnant . Your wife now becomes a mother . "
"Haha, I think so . "
"Tell her that she is welcome to the club, and give her my congratulations . I will send her Mom's Package . "
"Mom's Package? What is it?"
"It's a box containing all sorts of things related to infant care . You will find things from wet tissues to dried seaweed to towels and stuff . Oh, you will find a children's storybook as well, that is supposed to be used for prenatal education . "
"Oh, that kind of thing can be found in the market, huh? People are so smart . It seems that people's business skills and ideas are evolving every day . "
