[192]Securing evidence 1
“I heard the kids messed up. “I’m sorry, Manager.”
“It must have been difficult to respond because it was not planned and happened suddenly. and… Isn’t it a foreign country? There was also a language problem. “Don’t worry too much.”
I felt even more uncomfortable when I saw Managing Director Woo Byeong-jun’s stern expression.
“It’s not a big deal, so leave it to Manager Moon.”
“Thank you for your understanding.”
“Now then, let’s take a look at what I did wrong in the past and what evil deeds I committed.”
I know it’s not a big deal, but my palms were sweaty.
Woo Byung-jun smiled slightly and took out a small notebook from his arms.
“The manager is a very boring person.”
So you’re saying there was nothing special?
“My cousins had a lot of really ingenious thoughts when they reached puberty, but the manager only focused on his studies… No, you were devoted.”
“It sounds like you didn’t achieve anything in particular because you only focused on work during college.”
“Don’t be too confident.”
Woo Byung-jun smiled slightly and turned the pages of his notebook.
“Tracking hidden accounts is not possible at this time. It was determined that all domestic accounts were open and there was no borrowed name at all. “Wow, he’s incredibly rich.”
Oh, does this person laugh? Would he have smiled like that if he had found a hidden account?
“I don’t have any money hidden under my car’s name, right? “It’s all legitimately earned money, so you can say there’s nothing to hide.”
“Is that so? “I am most suspicious of American Miracle Investment, but it was difficult for me to track them down, so I gave up.”
“No way? This is America. If you are caught committing financial crimes, you will have to rot in prison for the rest of your life. “No dirty money.”
“Then it must be legal money. The question remains as to how much… .Anyway, there are no weak points that most Korean conglomerates have. “I don’t think this will make anyone vulnerable.”
“So does that mean there is something else that could make someone vulnerable?”
“There was a little bit of immorality, but nothing that could be considered a weakness. It means that he either hid it really well or was restrained from the beginning… .”
“Which one do you think, Director Woo?”
“Couldn’t it be the former? A hot-blooded twenty-something with a lot of money. “It is quite difficult to control one’s instincts.”
“I have a girlfriend. “You know, right?”
“Are you talking about the future judge who is taking a murderous class schedule at the Judicial Research and Training Institute?”
“yes.”
“Isn’t it difficult to meet once a month? “It’s even weirder that you confidently call me your girlfriend.”
A strange smile appeared on Woo Byung-jun’s lips as he answered.
“I guess you were looking for something, a little immoral, you say?”
“Behind Gangnam Sangnok Hall, there is a tenpro called Maui.”
“Fuhaha!”
The best way to hide embarrassment is to laugh.
“Did you find it? “You’re amazing.”
“I was so excited.”
“yes?”
“I wondered if it could be possible without it. Even though they searched a lot of employees, they couldn’t find it. So I changed my method.”
“how?”
“I followed in the footsteps of the person who has been with me the longest.”
“CEO Se-Hyeon Oh?”
Woo Byung-jun smiled and nodded his head.
“It was his regular place. If you have to entertain someone, always use that place… .”
“Oh my, so I was convinced that there must be a part of me that secretly enjoys it without suppressing my instincts, so I investigated until it was revealed.”
“That’s right. I thought CEO Oh Se-hyun was the only one who could guide the director in that direction. And I was right. “He enjoyed it secretly once or twice a month.”
“With that, you won’t be exploited because of your weakness?”
“yes. This is all the dust I shook off. “I can assure you that no one else will have a harder time than this.”
The purpose of this job is not to find my weaknesses and suture them. The task was to find my uncle’s weak points and check whether there was any range to counterattack when I attacked him.
This makes it clear that there can be no counterattack.
And another thing was to check the capabilities of Managing Director Woo Byeong-jun… . It’s a bit ambiguous.
Finding a place like Maui was amazing, but I can’t say it was that great.
“Now then, let’s move on to the next task.”
“It has already started. “We are investigating three key personnel who worked in the management support headquarters at Sunyang Construction at the time.”
“Please also note what I found out. December 1997, January 1998. “You can focus on the person in charge at this time.”
Managing Director Woo Byeong-jun’s eyes sparkled.
“How did you know?”
“There was a trace on the account. “We figured it out.”
“Maybe in Malaysia… ?”
“yes.”
“okay. “It wasn’t a vacation after all.”
“It’s a vacation. “It’s a bonus that I found out.”
Woo Byeong-jun stood up with the notebook in his arms.
“I will give you the first report in 10 days. “If there are some areas that are lacking, more time may be needed.”
“It’s not urgent, so don’t be too hasty.”
“It is right to handle it quickly and accurately. “I will make sure that I do not miss the point because I am in a hurry.”
We already know the result.
Hundreds of billion won worth of company funds were stolen. All you have to do is secure evidence… . No, we will secure a witness and that witness will provide evidence.
When should we take advantage of Vice President Vibrator’s weaknesses?

***
Exactly ten days later, I sat down with Managing Director Woo Byeong-jun at an officetel in Yeouido.
Two names were written on the document that Director Woo presented.
Executive Director Lim Jong-yoon.
Manager Jeong Gyu-hwan.
“During the IMF, many people were laid off, but two people were promoted. From director to managing director, from team leader to manager.”
“okay. When times are tough, it’s common sense to clean up the support department first… .”
Since production and sales are the two pillars of the manufacturing industry, they are a low priority in organizing, but they are easy to handle… Management, finance, general affairs. These three departments are ranked first for layoffs when they are struggling with deficits or when a management crisis occurs.
But how can the director and team leader of an overflowing support department be promoted in the middle of a major crisis called the IMF? In particular, Lim Jong-yoon rose two levels from director to executive director.
It means receiving great trust or accomplishing a very difficult task.
“Other than these two, there was no one in sight.”
“Did something come out?”
“Isn’t the construction floor originally covered in sand and cement? “If we just shake off the dust from two people, we will be able to build a house.”
Byungjun Woo flipped through several data files.
“Executive Director Lim Jong-yoon runs a human resources company. We supply daily workers to Sunyang Construction’s apartment construction sites… .
“The number of people must have been inflated by going.”
“Isn’t this a way to steal money? But this guy was a bit harsh. “Managing Director Lim is the president, and he makes billions of dollars a year.”
Billions, not hundreds of millions?
This would not be possible without my uncle’s ashes.
“Then would it be correct to view it as a slush fund window for Sunyang Construction?”
“That’s right, but if the rice cake is big, isn’t there a lot to ask about?”
“It means there are a lot of things being stolen without even my uncle knowing.”
“yes. Even the Vice President will turn a blind eye to this up to 340 billion won per year. But the money I took last year was billion.”
billion? This is not a level to turn a blind eye to.
Companies also have unspoken rules.
They turn a blind eye to the fact that the manager in charge gets a meal or a drink.
It is natural for the manager to receive a set of ribs during the holidays.
It is common for executives to receive golf entertainment.
But that’s it.
The reason Executive Director Lim Jong-yoon goes to this extent and steals money is not because he trusts Vice Chairman Jin Dong-gi’s trust, but because he trusts his weaknesses. The belief that he who knows about the vice president’s corruption will not be easily kicked out.
You are foolish.
You don’t know how harsh and scary the people in my family are.
“Executive Director Lim Jong-yoon will be finished soon. great. “Then what about Manager Gyu-Hwan Jeong?”
“This friend’s life has changed so dramatically that people joke that he found a treasure chest full of gold bars.”
“The so-called life reversal?”
The lottery hasn’t even come out yet. Does it start next year? So, it’s not like I hit the lottery and made a fortune.
“yes. Things have changed since 1998. I sent my wife and children to the United States, and they attend a prestigious private school in Boston. A typical wild goose dad would clean up his apartment and crawl into an officetel, but Manager Jeong moved to a residential-commercial complex. “I also changed my car.”
“It looks like the vice president has taken care of his part.”
“That’s right.”
“He did something terrible, and it can be seen as a cover-up.”
The problem is that even if he did something lousy, it can’t be a weakness. He was following his uncle’s instructions.
“So, what is Manager Jeong’s dust?”
“It is right not to change your lifestyle even if you receive a lump sum of money. However, this guy had so much fun that even people in the same department were whispering about it. Of course he had a bigger accident.”
Managing Director Woo Byeong-jun clicked his tongue with a disdainful expression and held out a photo that was sandwiched between documents.
“I am a female employee who works on the same floor.”
“Infidelity?”
“yes. My wife, the first thing I did after sending my child away was to seduce a pretty female employee. A gift of expensive jewelry, a nice dinner at the hotel restaurant. Imported midsize sedan. And ability proven by rapid promotion. “From the eyes of a child just starting out in society, everything seems wonderful.”
“This is a bit fatal.”
“yes. If the wife finds out, there will be divorce, and since the reason is the man’s affair, half of the assets will be lost, and even child support will be incurred. “It is a weakness more frightening than embezzlement.”
Director Woo said while looking at me closely.
“Is this not enough?”
“no. That’s enough. Thank you for your hard work.”
“Thank you for your hard work. no. “Anyway, what do you plan to do with this lump of dust now?”
“You just have to push the dust under the bed and pretend not to see it. “But you get paid first.”
Byungjun Woo began to look at me with concerned eyes.
“If you plan to meet them in person and threaten them, you should leave it to me… .”
“A threat? That’s dangerous for me too. I’m just making a suggestion. You know the famous line from The Godfather, right?”
“An offer you can’t refuse.”
“That’s right.”
“It’s a play on words. “In the movie, the offer was a threat.”
“I am different. I’ll throw in an offer that will ignite their desire, and they’ll be amazed. “They will be grateful and think of me as their benefactor because I don’t threaten them even when I point out their weaknesses.”
“Can you tell me what the proposal is?”
“It’s simple. Now, the two have learned the taste of money. There will be no stopping now. “I plan to give you a lot of that delicious money.”
After thinking for a moment, Byungjun Woo cautiously opened his mouth.
“It may be presumptuous, but let me tell you something. Don’t try to satisfy your desires and get what you want. Let your fear give you what you need. “Fear is a greater force than desire.”
What path has this person taken so far?
Is this this man’s way?
Getting what you want using fear as a weapon is not something that anyone can do.
“Money bows before bigger money. “It is impossible to satisfy all of their desires.”
“Director Woo.”
“yes,
“Fear can be overcome, but desire cannot be overcome. These two people will destroy themselves because of their desires anyway. I get what I want with my money, and these two people will only speed up their self-destruction because of my money.”
Woo Byung-jun, who fell into his thoughts again, finally smiled.
“It reminds me of Aesop’s fable. “After all, it is the sunlight that takes off one’s coat?”
“That’s right. But this story is a little different. “It won’t take off your coat, it will take off your comfortable life.”
Looking at him smiling, I also smiled.
Would you like to get a little closer to this person today?
