Episode 65
When Kang Jin, who felt the anger in Choi Dong Hae’s voice, was about to say something, Im Ho Jin opened his mouth.
“Mr. Donghae.”
At Im Ho-jin’s call, Choi Dong-hae looked at him. Under his gaze, Im Ho-jin poured soju into a glass.
Creak! Creak!
Pour a glass full of soju
The other Im Ho-jin placed it in front of him.
widely!
Lim Ho Jin, who had put down his glass lightly, opened his mouth.
“Drink.”
“yes’?”
“You said you could drink more? Drink.”
Choi Dong-hae’s eyes wavered at Im Ho-jin’s words. No matter how drunk he was,
Even if I had said that, I could tell that the alcohol poured into one glass was not recommended.
“It’s okay… It’s okay.”
At Choi Dong-hae’s words, Im Ho-jin looked at him, picked up the glass, and started drinking.
Gulp! Gulp!
Lee Sang-seop was surprised to see Im Ho-jin drinking a glass full of soju in one gulp.
“Manager!”
Im Ho-jin raised his hand to stop Lee Sang-seop’s words and finished drinking the soju.
“Ugh!”
Then, Im Ho-jin wiped his mouth, took a bite of pork belly, and looked at Choi Dong-hae.
“The most important thing in social life is knowing how to keep the line.”
“…… yes.”
“No matter how close we are,
“One mistake can cause a rift between two people.”
Lim Ho-jin paused for a moment and looked at Choi Dong-hae’s glass of soju.
“Drink.”
At Im Ho-jin’s words, Choi Dong-hae didn’t dare touch the soju glass. Seeing that, Im Ho-jin said.
“Drink.”
At Im Ho-jin’s words, Choi Dong-hae hesitated, then picked up the glass and put it in his mouth.
Gulp!
Lim Ho-jin said while looking at Choi Dong-hae who was putting down his drink after drinking half of it.
“Mr. Donghae, wherever you go, keep this in mind. No one likes someone who looks drunk at a drinking party. A cool person is someone who doesn’t look drunk even when drunk.”
“yes.”
Lim Ho-jin said to Choi Dong-hae’s small answer.
“You might be thinking, ‘How can I not look drunk when I’m drinking at a party?’ Isn’t that right?”
“Actually… … that’s right. How can I not look drunk when I’ve had some alcohol?”
Lim Ho-jin smiled at Choi Dong-hae’s question.
“Because I have to live.”
“yes?”
“When I drink with friends, I can drink and eat comfortably. However, when I drink with colleagues, business partners, or colleagues, it’s all related to my own livelihood. Can I do well in my company life if I make a mess at a business dinner? If I drink and make a mistake at a business dinner, will the business go smoothly?”
Choi Dong-hae hesitated at Im Ho-jin’s words and then shook his head.
“sorry.”
He realized his mistake. Im Ho-jin nodded at that.
“Everything in the world is a matter of making a living. And when your family is involved… …
Lim Ho-jin filled the glass with soju again.
Crunch!
Then, when Im Ho-jin was about to grab the glass, Lee Sang-seop reached out his hand first.
Thud!
Lee Sang-seop, holding the glass, said with a smile.
“This is me… …
Gulp! Gulp!
Lee Sang-seop downed all the soju in his glass in one gulp, let out a deep breath, and looked at Choi Dong-hae.
“The moment you lose your mind, you lose your family’s livelihood. That’s why I have to hold on to my mind somehow. I can’t risk my family over something like alcohol.”
At Lee Sang-seop’s words, Choi Dong-hae furrowed his brows. He was trying to regain his senses by straining his eyes.
Lim Ho-jin, who was looking at Choi Dong-hae like that, continued speaking.
“And if you have any questions, please ask.”
“Are you curious?”
“Everyone here knows that Donghae is an introvert. But if Donghae had suggested the dinner first,
“Isn’t it because you have something you want to say?”
Then Im Ho-jin looked at his employees.
“To help Mr. Choi Dong-hae live his life in the future, please feel free to ask questions here.”
“All right.”
At Im Ho-jin’s words, Choi Dong-hae took a deep breath and drank a glass of cold water.
I was a little drunk just a moment ago, but after hearing Im Ho-jin’s words, the intoxication had gone away a lot.
Then Choi Dong-hae opened his mouth.
“Today, senior Lee Sang-seop told me that I have a big appetite.”

“ah……
The employees nodded at Choi Dong-hae’s words. We sometimes eat separately, but we don’t have any special plans.
Eun and Lee have lunch together.
That’s why Choi Dong-hae’s actions are visible.
“I know that I won’t be able to become a full-time employee… and that I will have to resign after my internship period is over.”
The staff were getting a kick out of Choi Dong-hae’s fastball. I thought they knew, but when he brought it up so openly, it was a little awkward for them too.
It’s like we’ve already concluded that you’re not a good fit for our company.
“To be honest, I was disappointed and upset at first. But now I’m grateful that my team members and the manager taught me the practical work in detail, even though I might not be able to do it after I leave.”
When Choi Dong-hae lowered his head as if he was being sincere, Im Ho-jin took a sip of soju and held out a glass.
When Choi Dong-hae received the glass, Im Ho-jin
He poured me a drink.
“Don’t be too upset. It would be nice if the interns who joined our department became regular employees. I’ll see you often in the future. But… … it’s a fact that we can’t hire all the interns.”
“I know.”
“Learn a lot while you’re here. It’ll help you, Donghae.”
“thank you.”
“Let’s finish the story we were talking about.”
At Im Ho-jin’s words, Choi Dong-hae put the soju he received into his mouth and spoke to his employees.
“So, let me ask you one more time. Please tell me what I need to fix in my social life.”
“It might not be a very pleasant story to hear, but is that okay?”
Choi Dong-hae nodded at Choi Mi-na’s words.
“I will listen.”
At Choi Dong-hae’s words, Choi Mi-na looked at him and nodded.
“Okay. Since Donghae said this, we will also tell you what we felt. And what we are saying is not to criticize Donghae.”
“All right.”
At Choi Dong-hae’s answer, Choi Mi-na looked at him and opened her mouth.
“Donghae-ssi… … It smells in the afternoon
Me.”
Choi Dong-hae’s face hardened at Choi Mi-na’s words.
“Smell… … what?”
Kang Jin’s mouth watered at Choi Dong Hae’s words.
‘count.’
In fact, Kang Jin-do felt it too. But it was also something that was difficult to point out.
The phrase ‘you smell’ means…
In fact, it was difficult to do even with really close friends.
But Choi Mina immediately threw a fastball.
“It’s okay in the morning, but it starts to stink in the afternoon. It’s not a bad smell, but it smells a bit damp and oily.”
“A damp, greasy… smell?”
When Choi Dong-hae looked at her with a puzzled look, wondering what that smell was, Choi Mi-na continued speaking.
“But don’t spray things like perfume. If it mixes with perfume, the smell will only get worse.”
Choi Dong-hae bit his lip at Choi Mi-na’s words.
“……yes.”
“… … Among my friends, there’s one whose armpits smell a lot.”
Choi Dong-hae’s face turned redder at Kim Hye-in’s words. Choi Min-a is older than him, but Kim Hye-in is older than him.
They were both two years younger.
It is more embarrassing and shameful when a younger and prettier woman talks about the smell.
“Even when he went to school, he carried two sets of uniform and three sets of T-shirts.”
“why?”
“When I felt like I was sweating, I changed my top. And I often sprayed baby powder on my armpits. I thought that kid smelled.
I also found out after the college entrance exam when we went on a trip together and I saw the clothes I had left behind.”
“You didn’t know?”
“Because I took care of it that much.”
Kang Jin nodded at Kim Hye In’s words.
“It must have been cumbersome and inconvenient to carry several sets of clothes and always carry powder… … You put in a lot of effort.”
“That’s right. That… …
Kim Hye-in, who had been silent for a moment, looked at Choi Dong-hae.
“Mr. Donghae, try it too. And women secretly like the smell of baby powder.”
“is it so?”
“No woman hates the smell of a baby.”
At Kim Hye-in’s words, Choi Dong-hae looked at her and his face brightened.
“I see. My older sister likes babies too.”
“Donghae, fighting!”
Choi Dong-hae smiled as Kim Hye-in clenched her fist.
“Thank you.”
Lee Sang-seop opened his mouth at Choi Dong-hae’s words.
“Um… … I think I need to lose some weight though.”
“I’m fat.”
Lee Sang-seop smiled and said as he looked at Choi Dong-hae, who was lowering his head gloomily.
all.
“If you know, leave it out. It’s a matter of personal taste and private life, but… … To be honest, these days, even looks are considered competitive.”
“That’s… that’s right.”
“It’s true that you gain weight as you age, but… … Ah! I didn’t say that for you to hear, Manager.”
At Lee Sang-seop’s words, Im Ho-jin stroked his stomach with his hand.
“Hmm! It’s like you’re telling me to listen.
place?”
“That’s not possible. At your age, sir, it’s not belly fat, it’s virtue.”
“Okay……”
Lim Ho-jin saw Choi Dong-hae.
“As Sangseop said, these days, even looks are competitive. If Choi Donghae and Lee Kangjin came for an interview, who would you choose?”
“That’s a capable person… …
“Ability… …
Lim Ho-jin, who had been looking at Choi Dong-hae for a moment, nodded and said.
“When recruiting new employees, our company first receives applications. Then, we review the resumes in the applications and select those who pass the first round. Then, in the second round, we take a written test. We take three subjects: foreign language, trade, and current affairs. We interview those who receive the highest scores and select the final successful candidates.”
Choi Dong-hae listened carefully to the story about the process of selecting new employees.
This is the test you have to take right away.
Im Ho-jin said while looking at Choi Dong-hae like that.
“Can we say that Mr. Choi Dong-hae has significantly higher qualifications or scores than the other interviewees who passed the resume and written test?”
“That’s… … not true.”
“That’s right. The fact that you’ve made it to the interview stage means that you already have the qualifications and abilities that a new employee should have. Unless Mr. Choi Dong-hae has qualifications that are far superior to those of the other interviewees, the interviewers should select people based on their feelings and impressions alone.”
Lim Ho-jin paused for a moment and looked at Choi Dong-hae.
“Then I think that Mr. Choi Dong-hae and Mr. Lee Kang-jin came for an interview.
Let’s see. If Mr. Choi Dong-hae were the interviewer… …who would you choose?”
Choi Dong-hae bit his lip. Looking at Choi Dong-hae like that, Im Ho-jin spoke.
“I failed the interview because I was fat. I failed the interview because I was ugly. It may be unfair. But we are a trading company, and our job is to meet people. Shouldn’t we make a favorable impression on people so that we can make good deals?”
“yes.”
“And… … it would be good to lose some weight for your health.”
As Im Ho-jin smiled and poured a drink into a glass, Choi Dong-hae took the glass, drank it, and then handed the empty glass back to him.
“Thank you for your kind words.”
“I hope to see Donghae looking much thinner later.”
“thank you.”
Then Choi Dong-hae looked at the employees.
There was.
“I want to hear other stories too.”
“Are you okay? It still seems like I was pretty straight forward.”
Choi Dong-hae shook his head at Im Ho-jin’s words.
“Now that I’ve heard it, I want to hear more.”
Im Ho-jin looked at Lee Sang-seop at Choi Dong-hae’s words. As expected, Lee Sang-seop was more interested in Choi Dong-hae.
I’m sure you know a lot.
