After a while.
Kim Cheol-soo stood in front of the podium looking at the people divided into three teams.
“It looks like a team has been formed. Now, please select a team leader.”
The three teams began discussions, and a team leader was soon selected.
“Team 1 leader is Jang Sang-hoon, Team 2 leader is Yang Young-sook, and Team 3 leader is Robert.”
Park Dong-gyu diligently wrote down the names of the team and team leader next to Kim Cheol-soo.
“great. “Now I will give you the final interview task.”
Everyone looked at Kim Cheol-soo with nervous eyes.
Because this one task will determine whether I win or not.
Kim Cheol-su looked at them one by one and spoke slowly.
“The best performing team wins.”
Everyone swallowed their saliva.
“And the team leader must eliminate one person. The remaining three members of that team will be hired.”
At those words, everyone looked at the people who had been selected as team leaders.
Everyone seemed to regret it, saying that if they had known it would happen, they should have been the team leader, but the bus had already passed.
Jinyoung Song looked at Robert and sighed inwardly.
‘thank god. Because the team leader is friendly to me.’
Lee Gyeong-jeon smiled as he saw Song Jin-young sighing lightly.
‘It’s not easy. ‘It’s already been said, Beach.’
“Okay, then I will give you a task to complete. This assignment must be submitted or reported by midnight on the third day. “If you violate the time limit, you will be automatically eliminated.”
Feeling the gaze pouring on him, Kim Cheol-soo continued speaking.
“It doesn’t matter what it is. Please do what you can to increase your performance at Hanyoung Corporation. “It doesn’t matter whether it is a written plan or a transaction that will benefit Hanyoung Trading Company.”
People looked at each other with bewildered eyes.
“I will convert it into dollar amounts, and the team that raises the highest amount will win.”
It was a task that I had no idea about at all.
“I’d like to take a question.”
Everyone raised their hands.
**
The three interview teams who came to the bench in the park outside the building were silent for a long time.
“It’s really a task that will make you swear.”
Song Jin-young broke the silence.
“What kind of performance are you trying to achieve in two days? Moreover, we are not even employees. “It’s a ridiculous task, right?”
It was the same for Lee Kyung-jun.
I had a terrible headache.
‘Just give up?’
“It seems that other teams have people with experience in this field, but on our team, there is not a single person related to general trading.”
It was the same for Kang Yun-sik.
I made it to the final round without doing anything, but I really didn’t think anything about this assignment.
‘If I fail here, will my job eventually end? So am I failing again?’
Robert watched his frustrated teammates and clapped his hands.
“Now, thinking about it won’t help anything. “Let’s talk comfortably about what we can do.”
Lee Gyeong-jeon sighed and said.
“··· I give up.”
“Yes. Giving up is also a good solution.”
At those words, Song Jinyoung shook his head with a dumbfounded expression.
“That’s the worst solution.”
“Then Jinyoung, do you have any good ideas?”
“of course. “We have to achieve greater results than the other two teams.”
Lee Gyeong-jeon frowned.
“Who doesn’t know that?”
Song Jin-young turned his head and looked at Lee Gyeong-jeon.
“Why do you keep speaking informally? “Please follow the basics, right?”
“Well, okay.”
Robert nodded as he looked at Lee Gyeong-jeon, who shrugged his shoulders and agreed surprisingly easily.
Kyung-Jeon Lee said while looking at his teammates.
“No doubt other teams are drawing up business plans. “These people have a lot of experience in this field, so they will come up with a good plan.”
“I guess so.”
“But we don’t have anyone who can write such a plan. “If you try to do something you can’t do, you won’t win.”
Team 3 thought about it for a while and talked about various things, but nothing useful came out.
Song Jin-young, who was frustrated, suppressed his anxiety and looked at the outdoor billboard installed on the roof of Hanyoung General Trading Company for a long time.
Recently, the premium apartment ‘Atelier’ launched by Hanyoung Trading Company was released.
At that moment, something flashed in his mind, and Song Jin-young looked at his teammates and said.
“Have you seen that CF?”
“What CF?”
“Team leader Kim Cheol-soo, I mean, this is a CF commercial featuring our interviewer.”
Lee Gyeong-jeon nodded.
“I think it came out last year or so.”
“Yes? Have you seen that news too? “Team leader Kim Cheol-soo sang at a charity party in the United States.”

Kang Yun-sik nodded his head loudly.
“I was there.”
Then everyone looked at Kang Yun-sik.
Song Jin-young also opened his eyes and looked at Kang Yun-sik before opening his mouth.
“How was it?”
“Those who attended that charity party will probably not easily forget it. “Me too.”
“Because of that, there was a bit of a fuss about whether or not the entertainment industry would invite me, right?”
Lee Kyung-jeon and Kang Yun-sik nodded at Song Jin-young’s words.
Robert didn’t know much about it because it wasn’t a field he was interested in, so he just listened to their stories in detail.
“By the way, have you ever seen Team Leader Kim Cheol-soo on TV?”
“Not at all.”
“If I had known, I would have looked for it when preparing for the interview.”
Song Jin-young pointed to the outdoor billboard on the rooftop of Hanyoung General Trading Company.
“Have you ever seen that commercial on TV recently?”
“Atelier? hmm···. “I don’t think I’ve seen any TV commercials.”
Song Jin-young walked back and forth, thought hard, and then clapped his hands.
“Then how about using our team leader Kim Cheol-soo?”
Everyone looked at Song Jinyoung with an absurd expression.
“yes?”
Choosing people is no joke.
“Are you suggesting that team leader Kim Cheol-soo’s appearance be a condition of the contract in exchange for advertising on the program?”
Lee Gyeong-jeon dismissed Song Jin-young’s proposal as nonsense.
“First of all, it’s nonsense because the parties have not given permission and I don’t know any broadcasting company officials who would accept such conditions, but even if they did, there are only two days left. “It’s impossible.”
Kang Yun-sik and Robert were lost in thought for a moment.
Kim Cheol-soo left a strong impression on Kang Yun-sik for a long time, but he had never appeared on TV.
After thinking quietly, he opened his mouth.
“There was talk that a broadcasting company was trying to recruit team leader Kim Cheol-soo. In fact, at a charity party…”
Robert, who was quietly listening to Kang Yun-sik talking about the situation at the party, nodded.
“okay. “The explanation is from Kang Yun-sik, who personally witnessed Team Leader Kim Cheol-soo’s performance at the scene, so it is quite believable.”
People focused their attention on Robert.
“I was in Korea for a long time and ran a fairly large travel agency in the United States. So, I have quite a few connections. Among them are the owners of broadcasting companies. “If I ask, maybe we can meet for a meal.”
Everyone blinked and looked at Robert.
Jinyoung Song asked Robert back.
“Why are you trying to work here?”
“··· It may sound like I’m full, but I actually have a serious mannerism. “I need something to work with and achieve something with.”
Robert shrugged his shoulders and continued.
“I applied to a few other companies besides this one, and now I really like this company. Interviews like this are fun in their own way, and I wonder how much more fun work I can do in the future.”
Song Jin-young, who found it difficult to empathize, shook his head.
“Are you really planning on getting a job at the company?”
“Please remember that I am the team leader. “I am working hard.”
It was said with a good-natured smile, but the three people who understood the meaning behind it looked at each other with slightly nervous expressions.
Even if a team of three was selected, the team leader was the one who had the power to decide who would ultimately be eliminated.
“Yes, team leader. Sure.”
Song Jinyoung’s expression instantly relaxed.
‘That’s a talent too. Or maybe he experienced a lot of upheaval from early on.’
While thinking so, Robert looked at his teammates.
“This seems to be the most realistic proposal among the many proposals that have been made so far. “What about you?”
Kyung-jeon Lee was lost in thought as he looked at his teammates.
Everyone except himself seemed to like Song Jin-young’s proposal.
‘3 to 1. There is no use in resisting. If so, we’ll have to coordinate the details.’
Buy it, not the president of a broadcasting company.
It was a very possible contract if Robert could be persuaded.
“The problem is team leader Kim Cheol-soo. It doesn’t seem like they have any will to appear on TV. “It’s not something we can force.”
Song Jinyoung shook his head.
“Team leader Kim Cheol-soo clearly told us to use all available means. It’s up to him whether he wants to appear or not, but we can make suggestions. “He did something that could be converted into money.”
Then Lee Gyeong-jeon frowned and raised his voice.
“Why do you keep thinking only about yourself, Jinyoung Song? “Are you not even considering Robert’s position, which may be difficult, and Team Leader Kim Cheol-soo’s position, which may be even more difficult?”
Song Jinyoung tried to say something, but closed his mouth and turned his head.
‘How do you work while considering all that? I’m so frustrated and annoyed. If only Robert wasn’t the team leader…’
When it seemed like the two were going to fight again, Kang Yun-sik opened his mouth.
“I know a little about Team Leader Kim Cheol-soo, but he has a surprisingly reckless side.”
Eyes were focused on him.
“Even though I couldn’t swim, I jumped into the river to save people.”
“yes? “Really?”
“So I did save it.”
The team members thought they had found the reason why he passed the document interview despite having no experience in the related industry.
Song Jinyoung nodded with a nervous expression.
“So?”
“I didn’t turn down the request to appear on stage even at the charity party. There is a possibility that I will accept this offer.”
Lee Gyeong-jeon shook his head and asked.
“You can’t be sure, right?”
“How about persuading your wife?”
Persuading the daughter of the chairman of Hanyoung Group?
“Do you think we can meet?”
“You can try.”
Lee Gyeong-jeon sighed as he saw Kang Yun-sik talking only nonsense.
And Robert answered with a smile.
“great. I’m trying to suggest several methods. “Then what is another way?”
Jinyoung Song and Kyungjeon Lee looked at Robert for a moment.
‘It sounds as if there’s no problem in persuading the owner?’
The two were thinking the same thing when their eyes met, and they reflexively turned their heads to each other.
Kyungjeon Lee opened his mouth.
“According to the organization chart, Team Leader Kim Cheol-soo is below the Head of Sales Division 3. No matter what you do, you must get the approval of the head of the department. “If he can convince the general manager, he won’t be able to refuse.”
Song Jinyoung smiled and answered.
“Lee Kyung-jeon only knows how to talk. “There’s nothing you can do directly?”
“I beg your pardon?”
“Director Ahn Jeong-gyu is the head of the division. “I’ll take care of that.”
“It would be better not to use the shy beauty category. “I heard you’re a person who only knows your home and work.”
“under! What do you think of me? “Find something to do.”
Kyung-Jeon Lee said while looking at his teammates.
“The completion of the site is documentation. “We will calculate how much profit this contract will bring to the company and prepare a report according to the format.”
Robert nodded, watching everyone find their roles in an instant.
In the sport of soccer, the player who scores goals is the main character.
All players participating in the game want to become the protagonist.
If all 11 players rush to score a goal, the team will never be able to escape last place.
That’s what being a team is all about.
An attitude of recognizing the team’s goals and being able to find and do one’s own work.
‘This is a very good team.’
Robert said, making eye contact with his teammates.
“Then we don’t have time. Shall we move quickly?”
**
“Team Leader Kim! A cup of coffee?”
Pyo Il-soo called out Kim Cheol-soo, who had been sitting in front of the computer without moving for several hours.
Kim Cheol-soo finally looked at his watch, nodded and stood up.
“Good. “Team leader Pyo.”
The two went out to Sky Park, each got a cup of coffee, and sat down on a bench.
Pyo Il-soo asked for a cigarette, and Kim Cheol-soo took out a lighter from his pocket and lit Pyo Il-soo’s cigarette.
“Hey, man. Do you still carry it with you?”
“sure. “There are so many uses.”
“If your rank was lower, you could at least pat your head.”
“ha ha ha.”
Kim Cheol-soo smiled and sipped his coffee.
“Are you feeling a bit lonely now that Deputy Director Lee is gone?”
“I can’t say no.”
“Haha, I’m kind of like that too.”
“Wow, time flies so quickly. “It’s already been three years since you joined the company.”
“Iknow, right. “Wrinkles are starting to form around the conductor’s eyes, too.”
Kim Cheol-soo said while looking at the dark circles around Pyo Il-soo’s eyes.
“Parenting isn’t usually difficult.”
“Yes. I wake up crying every hour or two. “Even if I manage to get him to sleep and put him down, it doesn’t take long before he wakes up again and starts crying… I can’t sleep at night.”
Kim Cheol-soo nodded and spoke, and Pyo Il-soo asked with wide eyes.
“How do you know that?”
“Of course… isn’t it common sense? Common sense!”
“Is that so? “Why didn’t I know?”
“It’s because I always watch historical dramas.”
“is it?”
“Haha, sure.”
Kim Cheol-soo cleared his throat and changed the topic.
“Are you Assistant Manager Park returning next year?”
“I don’t know. “If there is a space available at that time, I will return, but if there is no space, then what?”
Pyo Il-soo took a long drag on his cigarette.
“right. “There are rumors going around the company. What kind of interview are you doing?”
“Haha, I’m trying something I’ve always wanted to do.”
“Hey, picking people is no joke. “If a strange person comes in, it’s really a pain in the ass.”
“Is that so?”
Cheolsu Kim answered, pretending not to notice.
“then. “The HR team tries to change the hiring method every year, but idiots always come in.”
Pyo Il-su continued speaking with sparkling eyes.
“Kids who can’t work and kids who have no interest in the company come in. They come in and cause trouble like loaches, and they leave after cutting the team leader’s performance in half. “You’re not a teammate, you’re just a stranger.”
“Team leader, is there anyone on your team like that?”
Pyo Il-soo smiled and answered.
“Under a great team leader, there are only great team members.”
“ha ha ha!”
“Hey, is it funny? “Why are you laughing so hard?”
“it’s nothing.”
Pyo Il-soo frowned slightly, but when he saw Kim Cheol-soo smiling, he soon burst into laughter.
“I heard there was a pretty person among the interviewees. how is it?”
“I don’t hire people based on their looks.”
“Hey, if the specs are the same, it’s better to be someone who makes you feel good when you see their face.”
“Haha, isn’t there already Jang Yu-mi?”
“Hey! “She is now the daughter-in-law of a chaebol family.”
Kim Cheol-soo smiled and answered.
“If Assistant Manager Park found out that Team Leader Pyo was acting like that, wouldn’t he just stay away?”
“Hey, hey. This is a real secret. Actually, it was just something I said. Personality is more important than appearance. Cancer, whatever. “
“Cancer, cancer.”
“Even though I say this, there is only one of us, Assistant Manager Park. know?”
“yes yes.”
Pyo Il-su poured down the remaining coffee in one mouthful and suddenly opened his mouth.
“what is it. Choi Hye-na… How are you feeling? are you okay?”
After getting married, he always added the word ‘nim’ when asking about Choi Hye-na’s well-being.
“sure. “It should be okay.”
“Take care of me. “Even more so when I’m pregnant.”
“That’s right.”
“Well, if I see what you’re doing, I’m not worried.”
Pyo Il-su tapped Kim Cheol-soo, who was grinning, on the back.
“Be good, man. “Anyway, what are you going to do when you select team members?”
“We are planning to push for Google to enter Korea in earnest.”
“google? “We’re already in Korea, right?”
“Currently, we only provide advertising services for large portals.”
Pyo Il-soo nodded.
“That’s it. “I’m sure it’s not just about helping, right?”
“I’m thinking about securing some shares in Google Korea.”
After tapping the calculator in his head for a moment, Pyo Il-su lost his appetite.
“But in Korea, portals like Naver and Daum already dominate the industry. “I wonder if Google can step in and make a profit.”
Kim Cheol-soo smiled faintly and nodded.
“Haha, I don’t know.”
“what? “You have something planned?”
“Well, I’m still thinking about it.”
“This guy, didn’t he do something big as soon as he became team leader?”
Pyo Il-su crumpled the paper cup.
“hey! Our team’s performance is now in 3rd place. “Let’s get the best team award too!”
“Haha, just working hard.”
“I want to shake hands with the boss too!”
“Haha, then can I make some concessions this year?”
“and···. That feels worse, man.”
Pyo Il-soo giggled and flicked off his cigarette.
“Even if I can’t give up on work, I will give up on other things.”
Pyo Il-soo had no objection that Kim Cheol-soo would be the most important person in the group.
I thought maybe I could go higher than Executive Director Ahn Jung-gyu.
In his opinion, President Choi Young-jun is very polite and a good person…what can I say.
He was a person who felt somewhat distant.
I couldn’t help but feel that I was more impressed by Kim Cheol-soo, who I could talk to casually.
“Cheolsu.”
Kim Cheol-soo saw Pyo Il-soo.
“You quickly go upstairs and have Assistant Manager Park reinstated.”
“ha ha ha.”
Kim Cheol-soo burst out laughing, and Pyo Il-soo also chuckled.
“If that happens, of course. “We will definitely bring you back.”
“okay. I feel reassured that he even said that. The apartment loan is still owed…”
Seeing him shaking his head, Kim Cheol-soo smiled faintly.
