Episode 69
‘No way… … There’s a popular intern selection… …
Kang Jin saw Lee Sang Seop.
“Who created the popular intern raffle?”
“Who can unilaterally turn an intern into a full-time employee? It’s the CEO.”
“The boss is amazing.”
Lee Sang-seop laughed at Kang Jin’s words.
“Did you notice something?”
“Didn’t you give me a hint by saying you had noticed something?”
“You’re definitely quick-witted.”
“So am I right then?”
In response to Kang Jin’s question, Lee Sang Seop looked at him and said.
“Don’t tell anyone else.”
“Don’t other people know?”
“It’s something we always do at work, how can we not know? All the employees know.”
“Then why?”
Lee Sang-seop said in response to Kang Jin’s question, “Are you telling me not to tell you?”
“You and I both know it, but it’s like a secret that we don’t talk about.”
“Then only the interns don’t know?”
“A quick-witted kid like you would know one or two things.”
Lee Sang-seop glanced at Choi Dong-hae. Choi Dong-hae had a puzzled expression on his face, as if he had no idea what the conversation was about.
“Kids who are clueless like Donghae won’t know what I’m talking about.”
Smiling, Lee Sang-seop pushed his chair back and returned to his seat.
“Don’t tell Donghae what I’m talking about.”
“Mr. Choi Dong-hae is not going to be a full-time employee either.”
Lee Sang-seop looked at Choi Dong-hae at Kang Jin’s words.
“If you do well this time, you might become a full-time employee. Aren’t you going to do it?”
The department may have viewed Choi Dong-hae’s chances as low, but if he became a popular intern, he could become a regular employee regardless of the department’s evaluation.
At Lee Sang-seop’s words, Choi Dong-hae hesitated and looked at Kang Jin. Then, after a moment, Choi Dong-hae nodded.
“I will work hard and learn during my internship… After my internship, I will go into the mountains, exercise hard, and lose weight to start my life.”
“Wow! You’re so determined.”
“Because I’m still young.”
Lee Sang-seop nodded at Choi Dong-hae’s words.
“Okay, diet hard and take the entrance exam. After all, they hire more new employees than interns.”
“thank you.”
At Choi Dong-hae’s answer, Lee Sang-seop returned to his seat and began looking at the documents again.
At that sight, Choi Dong-hae spoke quietly to Kang Jin.
“What were you talking about earlier?”
“There’s no such thing as a free lunch. Have you heard?”
“I’ve heard of that.”
“If you lose weight, you’ll be able to get a job at a trading company, right?”
“Yes.”
“When someone you meet through work offers you good food and good drinks… … remember. There is no such thing as a free lunch.”
Then, when Kang Jin started looking at the documents on the desk, Choi Dong Hae looked at him, wondering what he was talking about.
“What are you talking about?”
“It’s true. There is no such thing as a free lunch. I will give you something for free.
“Remember, the only people you care about are your family. Then you won’t have to go to jail.”
At Kang Jin’s words, Choi Dong Hae tilted his head at him and returned to his seat.
Kang Jin glanced at Choi Dong Hae and looked at the documents. However, Kang Jin was thinking about selecting a popular intern.
‘While selecting popular interns, we also test their character.’
That’s what Kang Jin thought. No, if you look at Sang Seop’s reaction, Kang Jin’s thoughts will be correct.
‘The CEO is such an amazing and funny person. How did he come up with all these ideas?’
Perhaps it is a test to gauge the personality of the interns by observing their behavior in order to get votes.
How could you do that when I gave you something like that?
What did I do for you to do that?
Do you have a number?
These are actions and words like this.
Those rumors will also be reflected in the performance evaluation. Perhaps, if you take too much, it will be a negative, and if you buy too much, it will be a negative.
There you can find a talent who can entice the interns, who could be considered enemies, to vote for him.
Anyone who can get a majority vote from interns has leadership.
Or maybe he’s a shark who can eat all his enemies.
Both of them were excellent talents that the company was looking for, so it was a double-edged sword of finding talent and testing character.
Kang Jin smiled as he thought about that.
‘Company life is really fun. It feels like I’m getting an internship.’
Psychology, which I had only seen in books, was alive and breathing in the company.
So Kang Jin decided to take a step back from the popularity intern selection and see how the interns would act and take sides.
As it was time to leave work, Kangjin started receiving text messages on his phone.
〈Hello. I am Choi, an intern from Team 3.

This is Youngjin. We are interns at the same time, but we haven’t even met each other until now. Today, we are getting together for a drink of soju. Would you like to join us?
〈This is Hwang Gyu-sik, whom I saw yesterday. If it’s okay with you, how about a cup of coffee after work today?〉
〈This is my intern colleague, Choi Myeong-sik. I heard that you run a restaurant near the company, but I haven’t been able to visit you even though you’re my colleague. I’ll go buy you some drinks with my friends tonight.
〉
‘It certainly seems like my ticket is without an owner.’
Since it is the ticket of an intern who has no intention of becoming a full-time employee, they think it is the easiest to get, so they are trying to secure it first.
Kang Jin, who was reading the text messages on his phone, glanced at Choi Dong Hae. Choi Dong Hae also looked at his phone from time to time, so he saw similar text messages to his.
It looked like it was coming.
Kang Jin looked around and whispered softly.
“The interns are getting together?”
“yes yes.”
“What are you going to do?”
“I don’t want to go.”
“why?”
“I’m going to eat a lot when I go, so I need to lose weight.”
Kang Jin snickers at Choi Dong Hae’s words
It was.
“I thought about it carefully.”
“I think you got a text message too, hyung?”
“I want to meet you.”
“Would you like to eat something delicious?”
“Rather than just eating something delicious, you should make something delicious.”
“yes?”
Kang Jin said while looking at Choi Dong Hae who was looking at him as if asking what he was talking about.
“To gather you at my restaurant.
“It’s been a while since we’ve increased sales.”
Then Kang Jin sent a text message
I sent replies to people.
〈As you may know, I have to work at the restaurant after work. If you have any business with me, please come to my restaurant. The location is… … .>
Kang Jin, who sent the text, smiled.
‘It increases sales and also satisfies psychological curiosity… … It’s the best.’
Kang Jin smiled and started organizing the documents. Then, at five o’clock, he got up.
“I’m going to leave work now.”
Lee Sang-seop looked at Kang Jin’s words.
“Are you in touch?”
“There have been many.”
“Then enjoy.”
Then Lee Sang-seop looked at Choi Dong-hae.
“Did you get a call from Donghae?”
“yes.”
“You should also get off work now.”
“There is still work to be done.”
At Choi Dong-hae’s words, Im Ho-jin looked at him.
“After the sports event, I will also have to go on business trips. I will have to go to faraway places like Pohang or Busan.
“Enjoy it while you can.”
At Im Ho-jin’s words, Choi Dong-hae looked at him and nodded.
“All right.”
Choi Dong-hae started to organize his documents and pack his bag. Kang Jin, who was watching him, saw Lee Sang-seop.
“Are you working overtime today too?”
“If you want to have a relaxing day on Friday, you have to keep working overtime.”
“Um… … I’ll make kimbap later
“Should I bring some too?”
“really?”
Kang Jin said, looking at the delighted Lee Sang-seop.
“I will only charge you one thousand won per line.”
Lee Sang-seop looked at Kang Jin’s words with a puzzled look.
“If you’re going to charge a thousand won… wouldn’t it be better to just give it to them for free?”
“If you receive something for free, it all becomes a debt later.”
“There is no such thing as a free lunch. Is that what they mean now?”
Kang Jin shook his head slightly at Lee Sang-seop’s smiling words. It wasn’t wrong, but what Kang Jin wanted to say was about JS Finance.
If you receive something for free even though you have the ability to pay, your JS Financial deposit will be deducted.
But Kang Jin, who couldn’t tell that story, said with a smile.
“That’s right. And it’s delicious.
“If kimbap costs a thousand won, that’s not that strange, right?”
“That’s true. And they deliver too… … Then I’ll give you two!”
Kang Jin looked at the other employees at Lee Sang Seop’s words.
“What about everyone else?”
It wasn’t a story from that far away, nor was it a quiet voice; the people in the office had already heard and known what he was talking about.
“Are you going to do it for us too?”
Kang Jin smiled at Kim Hye In’s words.
“Whether it’s one line or ten lines… … If you just prepare the materials, it’s a breeze.”
“Then I’ll say one line.”
“I have two lines.”
Kang Jin, who had been taking orders from people, left the office with Choi Dong Hae.
“Did you contact me?”
“no.”
“Tell the kids who want to see you to come to our restaurant. It’ll increase our sales.”
“Is that so?”
“okay.”
As he spoke, Kang Jin rode the elevator and thought of the ingredients that would be in the refrigerator.
‘Kimbap ingredients… … There’s no radish for kimbap.’
Among the ingredients in the refrigerator, there was no radish for kimbap. I had some for a while.
Kang Jin, who was doing his homework, nodded.
‘First, let’s make the recipe as grandma’s kimbap, and then in the middle, let’s make the recipe as radish stir-fried rice, and put in radish instead of just radish and stir-fried radish.’
The practice range of recipes includes many Eastern and Western dishes, but sometimes they are not included.
So, in similar dishes, you can use different recipes here and there to prepare the ingredients or make the food.
That was pretty good too.
Kang Jin, who was leaving the company while thinking about the kimbap recipe in his head, could see Hwang Gyu Sik standing there.
“Are you waiting for me?”
“I thought you would come out by now.”
Hwang Gyu-sik, who was approaching with a smile, saw Choi Dong-hae and happily raised his hand.
“Mr. Donghae!”
Choi Dong-hae also lightly raised his hand at the sight of Hwang Gyu-sik smiling and pretending to know something.
“It’s been a while.”
“Even though we’re in the same company, it’s hard to see each other because we’re in different departments. Ah! Mr. Kang Jin, I’m going to eat at your restaurant. Let’s go together.”
Choi Dong-hae looked at Kang Jin as Hwang Gyu-sik said something that seemed to indicate that things went well. Kang Jin smiled at that gaze and said.
“Let’s go first. Ah! Mr. Gyu-sik,
“Have you ever been to a restaurant?”
“I’ve heard a lot about you. You make delicious food to my personal taste?”
“You heard me right. Let’s go.”
Kang Jin took the lead and headed to the store with Hwang Gyu-sik and Choi Dong-hae.
Hwang Gyu-sik, who arrived at Hankki Restaurant, looked around the restaurant with a sad expression on his face.
“The store… was here.”
“Is it strange?”
“That’s not it… … I come and go here twice a day on my way to and from work, but I don’t remember seeing the store, is that it?”
“My store is strangely hard to find. It’s strange.”
Kang Jin, who was talking, checked the text message that came into his cell phone.
〈Here is the store that Mr. Kang Jin spoke about
I’m in front, but I can’t find the Hankki Restaurant. And did you happen to have an appointment to meet Mr. Choi Young-jin?
In the text message, Kang Jin saw Bae Yong Soo sitting in the kitchen.
‘Sure… …I have to get the ghosts out during business hours.’
Kang Jin, who was muttering to himself, looked at Choi Dong Hae.
“Donghae, there will be interns outside. Bring them in.”
“yes.”
Hwang Gyu-sik looked at Kang Jin with a puzzled look as Choi Dong-hae opened the door and went out.
“Do you talk to Donghae?”
“We work in the same department and see each other every day, so we decided to be brother and sister because we always treated each other with respect.”
“But it’s still a company… …
“Respectful and private within the company
“I only feel comfortable in my seat.”
Hwang Gyu-sik’s face hardened slightly at Kang Jin’s words.
“It seems like you’ve become very close with Donghae.”
“We see each other across the desk every day… … If we’re not enemies, we should become friends.”
At Kang Jin’s words, Hwang Gyu-sik looked at him and asked.
“Are there any other interns coming?”
“It’s not just Hwang Gyu-sik who wants my vote.”
Kang Jin said with a smile as he entered the kitchen.
“And this will be a place of opportunity for Mr. Hwang Gyu-sik as well. Do you know what I mean?”
At Kang Jin’s words, Hwang Gyu-sik looked at him and nodded.
“okay.”
As Kang Jin said, this place could have been a place of opportunity for Hwang Gyu-sik as well.
all.
In order to get 9 votes, you have to somehow steal other people’s votes.
