Episode 33
“The stuff is good, but… … those two people are hard to believe.”
Lee Sang-seop looked at Kang Jin’s words and said.
“why?”
“Lee Sang-seop… …
When Kang Jin hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to call him, Lee Sang Seop spoke.
“Please say Mr. Seed.”
“Mr. Lee Sang-seop, don’t you also feel uncomfortable with them?”
“Me?”
Kang Jin said while looking at Lee Sang Seop who was looking at him as if asking what he was talking about.
“When I was talking to the other party earlier, I could tell that Mr. Lee Sang-seop was uncomfortable because the area between his eyebrows and forehead was slightly tense.”
Lee Sang-seop said while pressing his hand between his eyebrows at Kang Jin’s words.
“Is it psychology?”
“What I felt when I saw Mr. Lee Sang-seop is something that can be understood even without psychology if you just have a sense of humor. And I think Mr. Lee Sang-seop also sensed that those two people were hard to trust.”
Lee Sang-seop rubbed his eyebrows for a moment and then nodded.
“I felt a little uneasy.”
Kang Jin said to Lee Sang Seop, “Those two people
I looked at where Ram was sitting.
“When talking about objects, the person who spoke had a relaxed expression on his face. That means that he is confident about kitchen knives, just like he said.”
“Is it because it looks comfortable?”
“Yes. And I saw a few more signals.”
Kang Jin picked up a kitchen knife.
“I made sure that the opponent could see the blade of the knife. I was sure that it was a knife.
I have confidence in Korea. But… … when we talk about exports and when Mr. Lee Sang-seop says that we need to check, he shows an extremely stressed reaction.”
“Stress response?”
At Lee Sang-seop’s words, Kang Jin got up and sat down in the seat where his opponent had been sitting earlier.
Then he moved the coffee cup to his seat and moved it aside.
“When talking about knives, I put my coffee cup aside and talked. I removed the wall between myself and Mr. Lee Sang-seop.”
“Is the coffee cup a wall?”
“It’s a psychological expression. It’s a feeling of security that comes from putting something between you and the other person. Anyway, when the topic of exports came up, I moved the coffee cup.”
Swish!
A coffee cup between Lee Sang-seop and himself
The fallen Kang Jin said.
“I built a psychological wall with a coffee cup.”
“To think that much about a cup of coffee… …
At Lee Sang-seop’s words, Kang Jin shook his head and put his hand on his neck. Then he gently pulled on his tie and lowered his hand.
Then he raised his hand again and grabbed the coffee cup.
“This is the reaction shown by the other person.”
“Is that a signal too?”
“Even though it’s a small reaction, it’s all a signal that occurs when stress builds up. It’s like a signal to buy some time to think.”
“flaw.. “
At Kang Jin’s words, Lee Sang Seop briefly touched his tie and then looked at his hands.
‘It’s time to think…
Looking at such an idealistic person, Kang Jin said
It continued.
“I don’t know much about trade, but… … work is done between people, so if I were you, I wouldn’t work with someone who sends signals like this.”

Lee Sang-seop placed a kitchen knife in front of Manager Im Ho-jin and told him what happened during the meeting.
Im Ho-jin glanced at Kang Jin after hearing what Lee Sang-seop said.
“Mr. Lee Kang-jin.”
At Im Ho-jin’s call, Kang Jin got up and approached him.
“Are you saying that he is psychologically untrustworthy?”
“It’s not that he’s an untrustworthy person, it’s that he’s an untrustworthy person in that situation.”
“In that situation… …
After listening to Kang Jin’s words, Im Ho Jin paused for a moment and then looked at Lee Sang Seop.
“How much is it?”
“One billion.”
“Ten billion… …
Lim Ho-jin thought for a moment, then looked at Kang Jin and said.
“Go and see.”
As Kang Jin went to his seat, Im Ho Jin saw Lee Sang Seop.
“What do you think?”
“Even in my opinion, the person I met with didn’t give off a good vibe.”
“how?”
“It’s a business meeting, so it’s natural to be nervous… … but I feel a little bit nervous?”
“Psychologically?”
“No, it’s just a feeling.”
“Watch out… …

Lim Ho-jin looked at the kitchen knife set for a moment and then said.
“Don’t cancel it first, just take a look.”
“Shall we take a look?”
Although it is a billion-dollar business, it is not a big deal for the company.
Besides, even if it was 10 billion, the commission would be at most 10 percent, or 100 million won. Since the selling price was the same, if it wasn’t a big deal, it would be okay to cancel and buy another item.
Lim Ho-jin glanced at Lee Sang-seop, who looked puzzled, and said.
“If I cancel because I don’t feel good about it… … what will happen to this company?”
Lim Ho-jin showed off a set of kitchen knives.
“If it’s a billion won, it’s a big deal for a small company. Let’s check it out and decide whether to proceed or not.”
“All right.”
Lee Sang-seop is carrying a kitchen knife set
Let’s try it. Lim Ho-jin raised his hand.
“Is the knife good?”
“yes.”
“I should get one for my wife.”
At Im Ho-jin’s words, Lee Sang-seop put down the kitchen knife and picked up the shopping bag he had placed on the floor.
Lee Sang-seop, carrying a shopping bag, gestured to Kang Jin and Choi Dong-hae and led them out.
“How are things going?”
In response to Kang Jin’s question, Lee Sang-seop told him about the conversation he had with Im Ho-jin.
“Then isn’t it a cancellation?”
“As the manager said, a billion won is a lot of money for a small company. I can’t just turn it down based on my feelings… … There are dozens of jobs at stake, so I think I need to check more.”
“okay.”
Lee Sang-seop, who was talking, pointed to the door of an office on one side.
〈Export Agency Team 2〉
Lee Sang-seop said, looking at the door that said “Export Agency Team 2.”
“This is the warehouse our team uses.”
Lee Sang-seop opened the warehouse and went inside.
There were various items on the shelves in the warehouse, and on the shelves
The items that couldn’t be taken in were piled on the floor.
Lee Sang-seop, who had roughly placed a set of kitchen knives on the display stand, looked at Choi Dong-hae and Kang Jin.
“These are the items our team handles for export. Please come in whenever you have time and check and examine the items in the documents.”
At Lee Sang-seop’s words, Choi Dong-hae and Kang Jin began to look around the warehouse.
* * *
At five o’clock in the afternoon, Kang Jin took a quick look around. The employees were still working without getting up from their seats.
At that sight, Kang Jin looked at Choi Dong Hae.
“Aren’t you going home from work?”
“Other people have to get up before we can go.”
Kang Jin said to Lee Sang Seop,
The crab approached.
“Can we leave work?”
“leave work?”
Lee Sang-seop looked at Kang Jin with a slightly bewildered expression and then nodded.
“I’m leaving work.”
“See you tomorrow.”
Kang Jin bowed his head to the other employees and then looked at Choi Dong Hae.
At that sight, Choi Dong-hae quietly packed his bag and got up, and Kang Jin left the office with him.
As Kang Jin left the office, the employees all looked in that direction.
“Our intern, Sene.”
Lee Sang-seop nodded at Im Ho-jin’s muttering.
“That’s right. When I was a new employee, I had to be careful when going to the bathroom… …
Im Ho-jin thought for a moment at Lee Sang-seop’s words and then said.
“Mr. Lee Kang-jin is not in the trade department, so it will take some time for him to learn the job.”
“I thought it would be like that, but it’s faster than I thought to get used to it.”
“okay?”
“It seems like he studied trade a bit before joining the company. He knows some of the terminology, although he’s not used to it. And since he’s a psychology major, he knows how to do it without being asked.”
“Mr. Choi Dong-hae?”
“that is……”
Lim Ho-jin looked at Lee Sang-seop, who was not continuing his speech.
“What’s the problem?”
“He seems a bit timid. He doesn’t speak well… …
Lee Sang-seop’s words reminded Im Ho-jin of Choi Dong-hae.
‘That’s not a good impression.’
“It might be because I was a little nervous on the first day
“Yes, too. Anyway, please tell me.”
“All right.”
Im Ho-jin said nothing more in response to Lee Sang-seop’s answer and began looking at the documents again.

Kang Jin and Choi Dong Hae began their internship life in earnest the day after they started working.
The superiors seemed to think that one day would be enough to understand the company’s work, so work was assigned right away from the second day.
Even though it was work, it wasn’t anything special. It was just errands, errands, errands.
“Mr. Lee Kang-jin, please make ten copies of this.”
“Mr. Lee Kang-jin, if you go up to the 11th floor, you will find the Overseas Business Department Team 1. Go there and… …
“Mr. Lee Kang-jin..
I had to run several errands, starting with Mr. Lee Kang-jin.
As I was making copies and helping prepare for work, it was already lunchtime.
“Okay! Let’s eat and then come back.”
The employees stood up at Manager Im Ho-jin’s words.
“Mr. Lee Kang-jin and Mr. Choi Dong-hae are also here.
“From now on, we eat together.”
“yes.”
Yesterday, Manager Im Ho-jin told the two of us to go eat separately.
It was meant to be a comfortable lunch for the interns. So they ate together at a nearby restaurant… … but it wasn’t very comfortable.
This is because Choi Dong-hae is a quiet and introverted person, so Kang-jin only talks to him and occasionally listens to his answers.
“By the way, what are we eating today?”
Lee Sang-seop sighed at what Im Ho-jin said as he left the office.
“Everything about our company is great, but the only thing that’s a bit disappointing is that we don’t have a cafeteria.”
“I heard that the cafeteria at my friend’s company is really delicious… …
“If there was only a cafeteria and it was delicious, the workers would have less to worry about. Worrying about what to eat for lunch is part of the job.”
Kang Jin and Choi Dong Hae followed behind them in silence, listening to what the staff had to say.
Anyway, they will decide what to eat, so we just go and eat.
‘But… …who pays for the meal?’
Looking at the overseas business team 2, it seemed like it was paid by the head of the department, Oh Seong-sil… … The salary of an office worker is obvious, but it is not always possible for the boss to live off of it.
‘If you buy it for me, I’ll eat it, if not, we’ll each pay for it.’
As I was following my superiors with that thought in mind, one of the female employees clapped her hands and said.
“I heard there’s a good restaurant near the company. Do you want to go there?”
“Good restaurant?”
“The price is cheap and the food is delicious.”
“Is it close?”
“I checked the distance because I was planning to go there this weekend, and it’s only 5 minutes away.”
“Then go that way.”
At Manager Lim’s words, the female employee took the lead and started walking.
As the female employee took the lead, the other employees followed suit. And then… … Kang Jin soon felt bewildered.
The place the female employee took the lead in was a Hankki restaurant.
“The door is closed?”
“Is this a good restaurant?”
“What restaurant is closed during lunch time?”
The female employee looked around the store in puzzlement as the employees chattered.
“That’s strange.”
The female employee was shaking the store door and looked through the crack. Seeing her, Kang-jin spoke quietly.
“How did you know about this store?”
“The Internet.”
At the female employee’s words, Kang Jin looked at her and then stepped forward.
“Come in.”
As Kang Jin opened the store door with a key along with the words, the female employee looked at him with surprised eyes.
“uh’?”
“This is my shop. Come in.”
Kang Jin opened the store door first and went inside.
As he entered, the employees who had been looking at him with a puzzled look followed him in.
Kang Jin, who entered the store, saw the ghosts looking at him with questioning faces and winked.
‘They’re out.’
As Kang Jin spoke in a small voice, the ghosts rose one by one and went outside, avoiding the people coming in.
If there are ghosts, people will eat
I sent it out because it gave me goosebumps when I ate it.
Kang Jin looked back at the staff after confirming that only Bae Yong Soo had entered the kitchen.
“Please sit down.”
At Kang Jin’s words, the employees began to sit down at the table one by one.
