Real Man

Chapter 323:

Chapter 323

Yoo-hyun took care of not only his own team members, but also those from other teams.

He went around offering drinks, and even those who had not talked much with Yoo-hyun before opened their mouths without hesitation.

It was all thanks to the light atmosphere that Yoo-hyun created.

“Mr. Han, I think you are…”

“Haha. Really? Thank you.”

Yoo-hyun smiled and got closer to each person.

Even those who had been jealous of Yoo-hyun’s flashy actions were in a good mood and laughed.

If it had been the Yoo-hyun of the past, he might have done this on purpose, but not now.

He acted casually without any calculation.

Yoo-hyun approached his team members naturally like a gentle breeze.

He did the same for those who could have been awkward because of his fast promotion.

Yoo-hyun offered a bottle of liquor to Kim Eunyoung, an assistant manager.

“Mr. Kim, let me offer you a drink.”

“You don’t have to add ‘Mr.’ between assistant managers. You and I are the same age, right?”

“Hey, once a senior, always a senior.”

Yoo-hyun smiled brightly, and Kim Eunyoung chuckled and held out his glass.

“You threw away all the liquor you got from Director Go Jaeyoon back then.”

“Haha. I’ll drink it for real this time.”

They drank happily while sharing stories from the past that had become memories.

Yoo-hyun emptied his glass and filled the empty glass of Lee Junseok, a new employee from Team 1.

“Mr. Han, I…”

“Oh, are you a classmate of Jinhun?”

Yoo-hyun reacted when he heard that he was a classmate of Park Jinhun, a researcher at the Ultra High Resolution TF Lab.

Lee Junseok came closer to him.

“Yes. Mr. Han, please speak comfortably.”

“Okay. Junseok, I hope to see you often.”

“Thank you. Jinhun told me that you are a god of module work.”

“What? I didn’t do anything. That’s nonsense.”

Yoo-hyun waved his hand and happily emptied his glass.

The next person Yoo-hyun looked for was Park Geunha, a section chief who had recently transferred.

He moved from the TV Business Division to fill the vacancy left by Shin Chanyong, who had resigned.

Park Geunha tilted his head as he received the glass of liquor from Yoo-hyun.

“Mr. Han, I’m really surprised.”

“Why?”

“I heard rumors that you turned the Ulsan factory upside down. So I thought you were a very difficult person.”

“That’s totally nonsense.”

Yoo-hyun cut him off cleanly, and Park Geunha nodded in agreement.

“Is that so? I thought it was strange.”

Kim Hyunmin, the team leader who was listening to the conversation, said with an incredulous expression.

“He’s lying.”

“Team leader, I can hear you.”

Yoo-hyun immediately tackled him, and Kim Hyunmin backed away and made a fuss.

“Look at him. He’s so scary.”

“Hahaha.”

People laughed loudly at Kim Hyunmin’s act.

In the warm atmosphere, Kim Hyunmin pulled Yoo-hyun’s arm.

“Scary guy, do you want to talk to me?”

“Sure.”

Yoo-hyun smiled and followed him.

A moment later, Kim Hyunmin sat on a bench behind the restaurant and laughed while holding his stomach.

“Hahahahaha.”

“What’s so funny?”

At Yoo-hyun’s question, he shrugged his shoulders and said,

“Just because what you’re doing is funny.”

“Don’t I look relaxed like a scoundrel?”

Yoo-hyun straightened his shoulders shamelessly, and Kim Hyunmin patted his shoulder and said,

“You look very relaxed. Very nice to see.”

“But why are you like that?”

“You’re too relaxed, it shows. You know what I mean? Haha.”

Kim Hyunmin, who had been serious for a moment, soon laughed playfully again.

Yoo-hyun felt like he had slightly revealed his inner thoughts and asked casually,

“Do you see it?”

“I can’t fool me even if you fool others. I’ve been a scoundrel for 10 years.”

“Oh.”

Yoo-hyun blinked his eyes for a moment and then smiled late.

He agreed with his words a hundred times.

Kim Hyunmin poked Yoo-hyun’s side with a grin.

“You know what? A real scoundrel doesn’t stand out like you do.”

“Is that so?”

“Yeah. Others don’t care about anyone and just live their own lives. Like Gang Taegong who went fishing.”

Kim Hyunmin, the team leader who had been a scoundrel for 10 years, had a different opinion.

He had a point, so Yoo-hyun looked up to him and asked him for a tip.

“You’re really amazing. Can you tell me your secret?”

“You’re so funny. Are you serious?”

“Yes. I’m serious.”

Yoo-hyun’s eyes sparkled, and Kim Hyunmin sat up straight.

He faced Yoo-hyun’s face, which was flushed from the alcohol.

“Why are you like that?”

“Actually…”

Yoo-hyun honestly told him about his worries.

Kim Hyunmin shrugged his shoulders after hearing his story.

“Hahaha.”

“It’s hard to get rid of it once it gets stuck in your mind.”

Yoo-hyun shook his head seriously, and Kim Hyunmin asked him with an incredulous expression.

“Are you crazy? Is that something a pirami should worry about?”

“What does it matter if I’m a pirami or a wolchok?”

“Well. There’s no age limit for learning. Hmm.”

Kim Hyunmin pondered for a moment at Yoo-hyun’s words.

He seemed confident in this field, even if he didn’t know much about work.

Maybe it was because of the alcohol, but Yoo-hyun was also immersed in this ridiculous conversation.

Kim Hyunmin nodded as if he had made up his mind.

“It’s hard to do it in a short time. Unless you go abroad or something.”

“Then what?”

“You have to get some help from others if you’re struggling by yourself.”

“Others?”

“Wait and see. I’ll help you get a scoundrel certificate.”

Kim Hyunmin gave him a meaningful smile.

The next day.

Choi Minhee, the assistant director, said to Yoo-hyun who was standing in front of her seat.

“I agree with what the team leader said.”

“What did he say?”

Yoo-hyun asked with a bewildered expression, and Choi Minhee answered casually.

“He said to let you rest as much as you want. He said you need a lot of rest.”

“Haha. I see.”

Yoo-hyun laughed involuntarily at Kim Hyunmin’s typical measure.

Thanks to that, he had to live like a retiring sergeant again at the end of his dispatch life.

Choi Minhee stamped her approval on Yoo-hyun’s thoughts.

“You just came back. Don’t feel any pressure and just relax.”

“Yes. You know I do well whatever you ask me to do.”

“Hoho. Yes. I’ll watch you.”

“Okay.”

Yoo-hyun turned around confidently, and Choi Minhee smiled and checked the monitor screen.

There were projects related to Ultra High Resolution TF on it.

What Yoo-hyun was in charge of here was the preliminary project, excluding the mass production of Applephone 4 panels.

It was called preliminary, but it was technically very difficult, and the goal was high.

It depended entirely on the development team’s capabilities, so it was hard for the planning team to intervene.

But Yoo-hyun’s case was different.

The project ran organically as if he had set up a good system.

It was so finely organized that there was no need for intermediate management.

Moreover, reports from the development team came in on their own.

Even if Kim Hyunmin hadn’t told him to rest, there wasn’t much for Yoo-hyun to do.

Choi Minhee turned her head and looked at Yoo-hyun’s back and muttered.

“They said they would do everything themselves in the development team. What can I ask him to do?”

The corners of her mouth rose sharply.

As promised, Choi Minhee didn’t give Yoo-hyun any special tasks.

She even gave him an exemption from attending most meetings.

The projects were all independent, so the team members didn’t bother Yoo-hyun much either.

They all seemed to think that Yoo-hyun would do well on his own.

Thanks to that, Yoo-hyun could relax endlessly at Hansung Tower.

In that atmosphere, Yoo-hyun received a phone call from Go Junho, the executive in charge of Product 4.

He exchanged simple greetings with a bright voice and told Yoo-hyun about the past event.

It was about the audit of the new Ulsan factory that they had discussed face-to-face before.

-If you ask me how the factory audit went…

“It went well.”

Yoo-hyun nodded as he listened to the explanation.

It was not a problem in the first place, since they were receiving investment.

Yeo Taesik, the vice president, had prepared well for any minor issues that could be picked on.

Thanks to that, they finished the matter that could have been dragged on for days quite neatly.

Go Junho pointed out that part and said,

-As you said, it seems like the group leader took care of a lot of things in between.

“Yes. I heard about it.”

-As expected, all the stories go through you.

“That’s not true.”

Yoo-hyun lightly explained away the misunderstanding, and Director Go Jun Ho laughed loudly.

-Hahaha. Okay. You just need to do well at work.

“Yes. I’m glad. Please keep in touch.”

-Okay. You too, contact me anytime.

Director Go Jun Ho hung up the phone with a hearty farewell.

He was nowhere near the fiery person he was when Yoo-hyun first met him.

He was just a very nice person in front of Yoo-hyun.

Yoo-hyun chuckled and recalled what Vice President Yeo Tae Sik had told him a while ago.

-You don’t need my help. So don’t worry and relax.

He gave Yoo-hyun confidence, and Yoo-hyun trusted him.

And now he had produced the results as if to prove it.

He wouldn’t be completely out of Han Kyung Hwe’s sight, but time was money.

This was enough.

Yoo-hyun was thinking that when it happened.

Beep beep.

He received a message from Deputy Manager Park Doo Sik.

-Director Han, do you have time for a cup of tea?

-Yes. I’ll see you right away.

Yoo-hyun gladly accepted the offer from his old boss, who had no reason to refuse.

A short while later, in the small conference room on the 11th floor.

Yoo-hyun entered the place that Deputy Manager Park Doo Sik had reserved himself.

There were plenty of snacks on the desk.

“What is all this?”

“I have to pay you back for the chocolate you gave me last time. And for helping me with the interview lecture.”

“It looks like leftovers from a team meeting.”

“Haha. So what?”

Deputy Manager Park Doo Sik led the mood lightly with his unique rhetoric.

He must have had a reason to care so much about him.

Yoo-hyun pretended not to know and dropped a hint.

“You must have missed my face a lot. You even contacted me personally.”

“Haha. That’s right. I called you for a reason. You look good, don’t you?”

“I feel very relaxed after taking a break.”

“That’s good to see. Here.”

Yoo-hyun took the coffee that Deputy Manager Park Doo Sik offered him.

The two exchanged pleasantries for quite a long time.

“This year’s HR team event was…”

“I was on secondment during…”

Meanwhile, Deputy Manager Park Doo Sik kept an eye on Yoo-hyun.

Yoo-hyun waited for him to speak first with a calm expression.

It wasn’t to gain the upper hand or take control of the situation.

He wanted to hear Deputy Manager Park Doo Sik’s honest thoughts.

Eventually, Deputy Manager Park Doo Sik broke the silence.

“Director Han, you’re popular, aren’t you?”

“Why do you say that?”

“It seems like the mobile group leader is paying a lot of attention to you.”

“Is it because he supported me for the interview lecture?”

“No. Not that. Hmm, where should I start?”

From his tone of voice, it wasn’t about rewards or promotions either.

It was about Vice President Yeo Tae Sik caring about Yoo-hyun in another aspect.

What could it be?

Yoo-hyun tried to confirm his guess by beating around the bush.

“Our group leader is very caring of his employees.”

“Haha. That’s right. It’s not easy to do that.”

Deputy Manager Park Doo Sik’s voice became serious, and there was an answer in it.
