Chapter 368

Yoo-hyun sneered and said bluntly.

Hey, manly man Moon Jung-gu, why are you looking at me like that?

Im embarrassed.

Forget it. Come here.

Yes.

Moon Jung-gu quickly jumped up and stood in front of Yoo-hyun.

Yoo-hyun gestured with his hand, and he handed over the book he was holding.

It was a golf magazine, and it had instructions on how to make a park golf club.

Since the club was made of wood, there were people who made them by hand.

The first one that Jeon Il-ho had brought was also a handmade club from a company in Mokpo.

Thats why he got it cheap back then, but now he couldnt buy it because there was no stock.

Yoo-hyun asked him, seeing the page on making golf clubs was stained with his fingerprints.

Are you making a club?

Yes. I heard its hard to get a park golf club.

Is that so?

Yes. I heard people say that.

Yoo-hyun suppressed his bursting laughter and asked him.

So youre going to make one yourself?

Im good at carving wood. I can do it really well.

He was an interesting guy.

Thud.

Yoo-hyun hit the table, and he sat down with a determined posture.

His shoulders were tense, and he looked funny just by looking at him.

Not bad. Give it a try.

Yes. Ill do my best.

Good. Good luck.

Yoo-hyun also used a military tone because of Moon Jung-gus stiff way of speaking.

Then Moon Jung-gu shouted.

Yes. Manly man Moon Jung-gu, I will succeed in confessing Oops.

Yoo-hyun quickly covered his mouth, doubting his ears.

Hey, you dont have to blurt everything out. Ah, this is really hopeless.

Ive heard that a lot.

Puhahahaha. Youre honest. I like that.

In the end, Yoo-hyun couldnt hold back his laughter and burst out loud.

That evening.

Behind the Chinese restaurant, people from the village gathered around the golf practice range table.

They didnt intend to have a party.

It was just that the butcher offered to treat them to meat, so they set up a grill.

But the atmosphere was like a village festival.

Sizzle.

From two large stand-type meat grills, the smell of well-cooked pork rose up.

On the table, there were food and drinks that the villagers brought with them.

The butcher stood between the two grills and shouted loudly.

Help yourself to the meat. Its on me.

As the people cheered, Lee Young-nam pointed out his mistake.

Mr. Jung, you should be more precise. Youre treating us because you lost the golf bet.

Hey, Mr. Lee, do you have to point that out? It makes a difference in mood, doesnt it?

The butcher waved his arms exaggeratedly, and the people laughed loudly.

Puhahahaha.

Then Shim Hyun-ji, who was munching on a sausage as usual, raised her camera.

Okay, let me take a picture of this nice atmosphere.

Oh dear. Here we go again.

The people laughed and chatted.

Yoo-hyun poked Moon Jung-gus side, who was absorbed in grilling meat, and whispered to him.

Jung-gu, you have to be more confident when taking pictures. Hyun-ji will check them later.

Oh. Youre right.

Moon Jung-gu put down his tongs and narrowed his eyes.

Then Shim Hyun-ji came over to him.

Wow. Jung-gu, youre really good at grilling meat.

Shim Hyun-ji exclaimed and picked up a piece of meat with her chopsticks.

To Yoo-hyun, it sounded like she just wanted to eat meat.

But Moon Jung-gus reaction was different.

His face turned red and he yelled.

M-manly man Moon Jung-gu can do this much easily. Ill grill more deliciously for you.

He added more meat to the grill and arranged it with lightning-fast movements.

The villagers eyes turned to Mun Jeong-gu one by one.

Wow, Jeong-gu is good at this.

Yeah, hes so fast.

Then, Bae Yong-seok, who was grilling meat on another grill next to him, also followed suit and added more meat.

Whoosh.

The two mens hands moved quickly in the strong flames rising from the charcoal of each grill.

They looked like they were competing.

What is this, really.

Yoo-hyun chuckled and enjoyed the amusing scene.

There was plenty of food and drinks, so the mood couldnt be bad.

Everyone chatted happily.

Yoo-hyun also enjoyed mingling with the villagers.

That was when one bottle, two bottles, empty bottles came out.

Shim Hyeon-ji, who had been babbling a lot, raised her hand.

Village head, I have a suggestion.

We have to listen to our pretty Hyeon-ji. What is it?

Lee Young-nam, the village head, nodded his head with a warm smile. Shim Hyeon-ji, who got up from her seat, said boldly.

Cant we buy park golf clubs with our village operating expenses? We dont have enough money and its very inconvenient.

Then, as if they had been waiting for it, one word came out.

The atmosphere of the drinking party changed to that of a village meeting in an instant.

Thats right. Its hard to get them in Mokpo city now.

The price has gone up too much.

Park golf was not yet popularized, so it was hard to get clubs.

As a result, calling for them was expensive.

It was a problem that had been reported several times already, and Lee Young-nam, the village head, had also thought deeply about it.

But it was far too short to handle it with the village budget.

Lee Young-nam, who had been thinking for a while, asked Yoo-hyun.

Han Ju-im, do you have any ideas?

At the same time, the villagers eyes turned to Yoo-hyun.

Yoo-hyun couldnt give an easy answer either.

He couldnt force them to buy expensive clubs, nor could he tell them to endure the inconvenience.

It was also unreasonable to wait until they received budget support from Haenam County.

But that was before Yoo-hyun met Mun Jeong-gu today.

Yoo-hyun smiled as he received Mun Jeong-gus burning gaze and answered.

There is a way.

Really?

There is, but its not easy. Someones tremendous effort is needed.

Everyones eyes widened at Yoo-hyuns exaggerated words.

When Yoo-hyun nodded his chin, Mun Jeong-gu jumped up from his seat.

With all eyes on him, he shouted in a spirited posture.

Ill try to make park golf clubs myself.

Then he looked at Shim Hyeon-ji standing next to him.

His legs were trembling nervously, but his eyes were steady.

Yoo-hyun laughed softly as he saw him.

The power of love is really amazing.

***

Some time passed after Mun Jeong-gu showed his strong ambition.

In the meantime, nothing had changed much in Yoo-hyuns daily life.

His factory work, hobbies, mingling with the villagers, and resting alone were all the same.

Everything was relaxed.

He felt that living like this wasnt so bad either.

On one Saturday lunchtime, he was at Choi Jeong-boks house in Yeonseung-ri village.

He had been invited for a meal.

As he was eating, Yoo-hyun told them his thoughts. Choi Jeong-boks wife was surprised and asked him.

How can you think like that at your age? Young people usually feel suffocated when they come to the countryside.

Youre so kind to me. You always make me delicious food. How can I not like it?

Choi Jeong-boks wife clapped her hands and praised Yoo-hyuns smooth answer without stopping.

Oh my, oh my. Hohoho. Yoo-hyun speaks so nicely.

This guy has no sense of shame.

Choi Jeong-bok tried to stop her with an embarrassed expression, but all he got back was a scolding.

You just be quiet and stay still.

My brother is watching.

Yoo-hyun likes being humble like this because hes a new generation. Right?

Yoo-hyun gave a cheerful answer to Choi Jeong-boks wife, who winked at him.

Of course. You look like my ideal type right now, sister-in-law.

Ho ho ho. I knew it. You have such a clear mind, Yoo-hyun. Wait a moment. Ill get you some more meat.

She got up with a bright smile and took the empty plate to the kitchen.

Behind her cheerful steps, a pleasant whistle echoed.

Choi Jeong Bok sighed, and Yoo-hyun smiled.

After finishing the meal and clearing the fruit, Yoo-hyun went outside.

The village of Yeon Seung Ri, where Choi Jeong Boks house was located, had better road maintenance than Yeon Tae Ri.

The signs of the shops were also uniform, giving a neat impression.

The road was winding because it was close to the high mountain, but that was also the charm of the village.

It was fun to walk around and see different things.

As they walked together, Choi Jeong Bok brought up his wife.

My wife wasnt always so talkative.

She looks very happy.

Im glad you think so. Actually, when we first came here

Choi Jeong Bok elaborated on his past story that he had briefly mentioned before.

He was born in Seoul and moved to the countryside after getting married to find some leisure.

He had big dreams when he came to the village, but he also faced many disappointments.

My wife especially wanted to go back. The landslide made our income worse, and we couldnt get along with the villagers.

It must have been hard to settle in a village where you had no ties.

Right. Thats why my wife admires you. We struggled for over five years before we got comfortable, but you look so relaxed.

Its because the villagers are so nice to me.

Its because you have an open heart that people approach you.

Yoo-hyun felt a twinge in his chest.

When he first came to this village, he deliberately kept his distance from people.

He didnt want to be interfered with, and he thought it would be easier that way.

But he realized it wasnt.

He enjoyed being with people more than being alone.

It was a joy that he could only get from being with good people.

They are all kind-hearted people.

No. They just like you.

Oh, come on. Hey, is that an Apple phone?

Yoo-hyun waved his hand at his teasing words and pointed at his phone shop.

There was a banner that said <Apple Phone 3 Pre-order Registration>.

Yeah. My wife told me to order it without looking back.

Haha. Youll be in trouble if you cant sell it, right?

No way. Shell hit me even if I do. Shell probably apologize to you instead.

Id like to see that once.

What? Hahaha.

Yoo-hyun laughed with Choi Jeong Bok, shaking their shoulders.

He enjoyed this light-hearted conversation with him.

Yoo-hyun turned around the big hill and went over to Yeon Tae Ri village.

He walked along the trail until he reached the golf practice range behind the Chinese restaurant.

This place was also Yoo-hyun and Choi Jeong Boks hideout, and there were already many people gathered there.

The people who sat tightly on the platform were listening to a man who was far away.

Yoo-hyun smirked at the sight.

Jeong Gu is doing that again.

Did he make another club?

Choi Jeong Bok pointed at the people who were touching the club on the platform.

Yoo-hyun nodded as he had seen this scene before.

Thats right.

Then, Moon Jeong Gu lifted up the club that he had leaned on the platform and raised his voice.

Everyone. This club is more upgraded. First of all, if you look here, I changed the grip to silicone material, and I painted the club head with eco-friendly paint

Amid his long speech, murmurs spread among the people on the platform.
