Episode 67
Kang Jin went to a man in his mid-thirties holding a document with incorrect numbers written on it.
“Mr. Kang Sung-soo.”
“Huh? Why?”
There are a total of 7 full-time employees in the export agency team 2. Among them, Kang Sung-soo was the agent who worked with Choi Mi-na.
It was the year when I was supposed to be promoted to manager, but the promotion was a bit slow.
Anyway, Kang Jin handed the documents to Kang Sung Soo.
“Please check.”
When Kang Jin handed over the documents, Kang Sung Soo looked at them alternately and nodded.
“I checked it carefully. Thank you.”
“No. It’s my job.”
“Then the numbers are based on the original documents
“Write it down.”
“yes.”
As Kang Sung-soo picked up the phone, Kang Jin took the documents and returned to his seat.
Then I changed the numbers and wrote the time next to them. I also wrote down the time of the change in case this becomes a problem later.
A’s I
Kang Jin, who changed the documents, Park Chung Man
Let’s see, he started looking at the papers again.
With Park Chung-man’s help, Kang Jin was able to check all the documents.
“Ugh!”
Kang Jin groaned and twisted his body. His whole body ached from having been bent over all day looking at documents.
“Ugh!”
Kang Jin groaned again and looked at the time. It was almost time to get off work.
Then Kang Jin took the documents and brought them to Lee Sang Seop.
“I checked it twice. Please check it once and if there are no problems, you can give it to Manager Choi Mina.”
“thank you.”
While Lee Sang-seop was receiving the documents, he saw Kang Jin holding other documents as well.
“Have you checked the other team members’ businesses?”
“yes.”
“It’s not good to do it quickly, you have to check to make sure there are no mistakes.”
At Lee Sang-seop’s words, Kang Jin looked at him and nodded.
“I checked everything.”
“Let’s think about it again. If we receive it and find out that it’s wrong, we’ll hear a word from you.”
“it’s okay.”
At Kang Jin’s words, Lee Sang-seop looked at him and nodded.
“okay.”
At Lee Sang-seop’s words, Kang Jin gave him the documents and then passed them on to the other team members.
Lim Ho-jin, who was watching the scene, opened his mouth.
“Check everything carefully.”
The team members nodded at Im Ho-jin’s words.
He nodded and started checking the documents.
Since we were team members who had worked with Im Ho-jin for a long time, we knew what he meant.
It meant to find the mistake and scold him right away.
Just as Lee Sang-seop didn’t believe Kang Jin’s words, Im Ho-jin didn’t believe it either.
Kang Jin confirmed all the businesses that the export agency team 2 was doing.
It is not just a simple check, but a double check of the documents that summarize the main points and the general documents.
The important thing was to do it correctly, not quickly.
However, when Kang Jin says that he has confirmed it, he tries to find out what is wrong and correct the habit.
Of course, I didn’t mean anything bad to Im Ho-jin. I just wanted to let him know that it’s not good to rush things.
And since the team members knew about this idea, they started to carefully look over the documents sent to them.
Meanwhile, Kang Jin brought a piece of paper to Choi Mi Na.
“Sir.”
“What should I get you too?”
Choi Mi-na didn’t give her business to Kang Jin because she had to work on Friday.
Kang Jin smiled at Choi Mi-na’s words.
“This is the recipe we talked about at the company dinner yesterday.”
“Oh my! It was just a passing remark… …
“How could I forget what my heavenly boss said? I wrote down a few simple things.”
Then Kang Jin handed over a piece of paper. Choi Mi Na took the paper and read the menu.
“Kimchi stir-fry, spicy kimchi stir-fry, sesame oil kimchi stir-fry? There are three kinds of kimchi stir-fry.
“Is it Ryuuna?”
“This is beginner mode.”
“Ah… … It really is easy.”
“It’s a food that is guaranteed to taste good even if you just stir-fry it.”
“Well, to make kimchi stir-fry, you just have to stir-fry kimchi… …right?”
The recipe for kimchi stir-fry didn’t have a long explanation. It just said to chop up the kimchi, stir-fry it, and add a little sugar.
“There’s also curry. Curry is difficult.

O… ”
Choi Mina, who was slightly surprised to see curry in it, tilted her head after reading the instructions.
“Easy?”
“If you make any dish difficult, it becomes difficult, and if you make it easy, it becomes easy.”
“Yes. Chop or slice two onions and put them in a frying pan with a little oil. Fry them for ten minutes until they turn caramelized.
“Continue to stir-fry for about five minutes.”
“It would be good to cut it into pieces, but if that’s difficult, you can just chop it roughly and stir-fry it.”
“But you fry it for fifteen minutes?”
“Fry until caramelized. It depends on the heat, but if you cook it over a non-scorching heat, it will take about fifteen minutes.”
Choi Mi-na nodded at Kang Jin’s words and finished reading the text.
“When the onions turn caramelized,
Pour water twice into the bowl. Then add the curry and stir well to prevent it from burning. When it thickens, enjoy. Is that all?
“What I’ve written down just now is the most basic of the basics. Once you’ve tried it, if it suits your taste, you can add other ingredients a few minutes before the onions turn caramelized. Pork, potatoes, carrots, whatever you want to eat.”
“anything?”
“You can put anything in it.
“While doing this, you discover your own hidden recipe.”
At Kang Jin’s words, Choi Mi-na smiled and looked at the paper with the recipe written on it.
“thank you.”
“Try these and if they taste good, we’ll move on to the next step.”
“all right.”
As Choi Mina nodded and looked at the recipe, Lee Sang-seop looked at Kang Jin.
“You checked it well.”
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah… …There’s no problem other than what you checked.”
Then Lee Sang-seop looked at the other employees. Kim Hye-in and the other employees shook their heads at his gaze.
It meant that there was no problem. At that moment, Lee Sang-seop looked at Kang Jin and shook his head slightly.
“You… … learn things really quickly.”
“thank you.”
“No. You learn really quickly.”
Then Lee Sang-seop looked at Kang Jin and smiled.
“Let’s keep in touch even after the internship is over.”
“After your internship, come to our store often.”
“okay.”
Kang Jin, who was looking at Lee Sang Seop who was nodding, checked the time and
I packed my bag.
“Thank you for your effort.”
The employees nodded slightly at Kang Jin’s words. The sight of Kang Jin leaving work when it was time to leave was now familiar.
“See you tomorrow.”
Kang Jin left the office with his bag and got on the elevator. There were people leaving work in the elevator.
Kang Jin, who was standing next to them, was behind them.
The man who had been there spoke.
“Are you Lee Kang-jin?”
Kang-jin turned around when he heard his name. Behind him stood a handsome man who looked to be around the same age.
“yes?”
“I saw you once when we had an intern gathering… … My name is Hwang Gyu-sik from the domestic support team 2.”
“As you may know, my name is Lee Kang-jin. So, are you an intern?”
“yes.”
Kang Jin smiled at Hwang Gyu-sik’s words.
“nice to meet you.”
“me too.”
With that, Kang Jin said no more. Then Hwang Gyu Sik looked at him and said.
“I heard Mr. Lee Kang-jin has good reviews.”
“Is that so?”
“I majored in psychology and also run a restaurant.
“An intern who is neither a doctor nor a medical doctor but knows how to take the pulse… … That’s not common. And that’s at a trading company.”
Kang Jin smiled inwardly as he felt that there was a knife hidden in the light joke.
“Does that not include the fact that I have no intention of becoming a full-time employee?”
“It’s also included. That’s why our department seniors said that they don’t feel burdened by interns like Kang Jin.”
“I think the people at Taekwang Trading are really good people. They usually don’t think it’s difficult to cut interns.”
“That’s right. That’s why I really want to join this company.”
Kang Jin nodded at Hwang Gyu-sik’s words and looked back at him.
“I hope you succeed.”
Hwang Gyu-sik nodded at Kang Jin’s words.
Ding!
When the elevator stopped on the first floor, the people on board got off. Hwang Gyu-sik approached Kang Jin, who was getting off with them.
“Excuse me, would you like a cup of coffee? I’ll buy it.”
“Coffee?”
“It may be a coincidence that we met, but wouldn’t it be a good thing if we continued our relationship as fate?”
Kang Jin took the time to say what Hwang Gyu Sik said.
He nodded after seeing it.
“Let’s do that.”
Kang Jin said as he entered the coffee shop located inside the building.
“Caramel coffee please.”
At Kang Jin’s words, Hwang Gyu-sik placed his order with the clerk, picked up the buzzer, and sat down in an empty seat.
“Are you going to the sports meet?”
“Isn’t everyone going?”
“Yes.”
Hwang Gyu-sik nodded and slowly opened his mouth.
“Did you know that after the sports competition, one intern will be hired as a full-time employee?”
“is it so?”
“Didn’t you know?”
“I’m hearing this for the first time. But if you’re going to hire interns after the sports competition… … You’re not really going to hire them based on their athletic ability?”
Hwang responded to Kang Jin’s question, which seemed absurd.
Gyu-sik shook his head.
“It’s not about getting selected through exercise.”
“sure?”
Drrrrrr!
Hwang Gyu-sik, who was talking, got up when the bell rang and went to get a drink.
Then he gave the caramel coffee to Kangjin and said quietly.
“To be exact, we choose the most popular intern among the interns.”
“popularity?”
“After the sports event, the interns secretly vote to choose the person on their team who best suits Taekwang Trading. The person who receives the majority of votes becomes a full-time employee regardless of the performance evaluation.”
At Hwang Gyu-sik’s words, Kang Jin looked at him and smiled.
“ah……”
” ah?”
Hwang Gyu-sik responded to Kang Jin’s muttering.
I looked at him as if I was ashamed.
“Why ‘Ah’?”
“I think I know why my seniors didn’t tell me.”
“Why? What is it?”
“If it’s the person who gets the most votes, it’s possible, but the problem is that it’s a majority.”
Kang Jin smiled and took a sip of coffee. He was tired, but drinking the sweet caramel coffee made him feel like his sugar level was recharged.
‘It’s delicious.’
“There are about 17 interns joining Taekwang Trading this time?”
“Yes.”
“Then, in order to get a majority, nine people have to pick one person, which doesn’t make sense. All the interns who want to become regular employees… … Oh, to be exact, 16 people, excluding me. All 16 people want to become regular employees, so how can one person get the majority of votes?”
Kang Jin shook his head as if it didn’t make sense and continued speaking.
“Even someone who is really popular would have a hard time getting three votes.”
Hwang Gyu-sik nodded at Kang Jin’s words.
“That makes sense. But… … it’s not like it’s completely impossible.”
“If it were Mr. Hwang Gyu-sik, would he give his ticket, which could lead to a full-time position, to someone else?”
Hwang Gyu-sik smiled at Kang Jin’s question.
“Of course I won’t give it to you. But… … I can’t write my name on this ballot.”
“Can’t you write your own name?”
“Since you can’t write your own name, you have to write someone else’s name. So it’s difficult, but not impossible.”
At Hwang Gyu-sik’s words, Kang Jin fiddled with his coffee cup and then laughed.
“Certainly… … it’s difficult, but not impossible.”
“Right?”
“But it will never be easy.”
“These days, finding employment for young people is not easy either.”
Kang Jin nodded at Hwang Gyu Sik’s words. If you think about it, Hwang Gyu Sik’s words are right.
If you think about the unemployment problem among young people these days, you should give interns a chance to participate in sports events.
It might be easier to get a table.
And Kang Jin liked Hwang Gyu Sik’s mind.
Of course, it could be a bit of a sly move.
The reason he is talking to you now when we usually don’t talk at all is because he is asking for your vote.
But… …so what?
Job hunting is a war. You have to make an effort to survive in the battlefield.
And Hwang Gyu-sik was making that effort now. Kang Jin highly valued his efforts to survive.
Of course, that doesn’t mean you have any obligation to help Hwang Kyu-sik.
