Chapter 79

HeeYoon returned home early after cram school . KangYoon said that there was something important to talk about .

Oppa .

Youre home?

When HeeYoon went through the front door, KangYoon was making dinner . A nice array of food, including meat and fried chicken, were on the table .

Ill do it .

Its fine .

KangYoon refused her, but HeeYoon still did it anyway . She didnt feel good about her brother doing the meals . She knew clearly how much work he was doing to support her, so she did not want to make him do work at home as well .

I said it really is fine .

In the end, KangYoon was forced to the table . HeeYoon was firm in this matter .

After their dinner was ready, the two siblings sat across each other . The two started eating joyfully .

Oppa, you have something to talk about?

.

Seeing KangYoon hesitate, HeeYoon noticed that KangYoon had something to say . She felt a strange aura about her brother . A sister was a sister alright .

KangYoon thought for a moment before going into the topic .

HeeYoon .

What is it? Is it something hard to talk about?

You know, the thing we talked about last time .

HeeYoon also momentarily paused . This was about going to America . HeeYoon focused .

America right?

In my opinion, I think it will be better to go there as soon as possible .

In her heart, HeeYoon had already decided to go to America . She especially focused on the fact that she would not be a burden to KangYoon anymore once she regained her health and found her dreams . There was no reason to hesitate .

When are we going? And how long are we going to be there for?

I think well go there in 2 months . Ill take care of the documents, and well have to learn some English too . Is that fine with you?

Im fine with it . In fact, Im really delighted .

Seeing his sister very clear on her intentions, KangYoon sighed in relief since one of his worries was solves . He was worried that she may want to remain here in Korea . Fortunately, nothing like that happened .

The problem lay elsewhere .

What are you going to do? Your work is important, isnt it?

Im going to go after I clean up .

Oppa .

HeeYoon shook her head . She was worried that KangYoon was giving up his work for her sake . She did not want to burden her brother .

If its because of me, then dont . I can stay alone by myself .

HeeYoon, its not just because of that .

Then what is it? If you are going to stop working just because of me, then Ill just not go .

I said its not like that .

Oppa, do you take me for an idiot?

HeeYoon violently shook her head .

I know better than anyone how much you like your work right now . What would I be if you stop working and go to America just because of me? Lets just wait and .

HeeYoon!

In the end, KangYoon shouted out loud . Then, HeeYoon became quiet . However, her eyes were still blazing .

Feeling that the atmosphere had calmed down somewhat, KangYoon started talking calmly again .

Shouldnt I prepare myself if I want to do my own work? Thats why were going .

Your own work? What do you mean?

Until now, I was an employee in a company . But now, Ill be running the business myself .

Eh?

HeeYoon became absent-minded . Running his own business? This was just as shocking as when JooAh suddenly invaded her school .

Your business? Youre going to do a business?

I now have enough foundation and ties with other people . So, Im thinking of doing my own work .

Haha .

HeeYoon felt weird . She was surprised when her brother stopped being a manager and became a planner, but now he was going to run his own business .

However, as always, she believed in her brother .

Wow, so its a business now? Its my brother, so of course, youll do well, right?

Thanks . Its not like Im going to start right away . We have plenty of time, so Im going to study as well while you heal .

Study? Study what?

Music . I also want to study stage planning as well .

KangYoon remembered back to Samuel Johnsons concert . The beautiful stage filled with bright golden light flashed in his mind . He could still clearly feel the stage filled with passionate golden light among the cheers of countless people .

He felt that he was still lacking if he wanted to create such a stage .

Then Im going to go to school with you?

Youre going to study too?

Of course . Once I get healthy, all your worries will be over .

Girlie .

KangYoon patted HeeYoons head in delight . HeeYoon grumbled saying that her hair got messy, but KangYoon giggled, replying that he did that on purpose .

Like that, the night for the two siblings went by .

***

During the past couple days, MG Entertainment was very noisy within the company .

Once, it was noisy about the success after success KangYoons embezzlement rumors, and next, it was that that rumor was due to corruption in the audit team, as well as a director, being directly involved in it . With such rumors going around, the employees were gossiping .

And today, KangYoon put the icing on the cake .

What is this, Team Leader Lee?

When KangYoon put a white envelope on the table, Chairman Won JinMoon muttered in a very awkward voice .

Its my letter of resignation .

So . It comes to this .

.

He sighed as though he had already expected this .

You wouldnt want to stay behind when you were framed for embezzlement . I understand you plenty .

Chairman, thats .

Aah, it really isnt easy to say that its a pity to see you leave . Haha .

Chairman Won JinMoon didnt hide his feelings . KangYoon had successfully put JooAh in Japan despite many obstacles . After that, he succeeded in numerous other projects and raised MG Entertainment, which was known for its specialty in idols, in the field of concert planning and general music business . He also single-handedly raised the general music team and showed its potential . At this rate, it was only a matter of time until the team became a separate department and eventually become its own company .

However, a trivial jealousy from a director had ruined everything . He should have prevented the competition between the board of directors and the president before it went too far . He felt that it was his own fault .

Chairman Won JinMoon sighed deeply .

You know . I do not have a history of clinging to someone whos about to leave the company . But you, however, are different . Right now, I really need you . I really wish you would reconsider this .

I apologize, Chairman . Actually, I have another reason for this .

Another reason?

KangYoon talked about his sister the fact that she must go to America to receive an organ transplant, and that he wishes to cool his head and study a little more .

With things like this, Chairman Won JinMoon could do nothing .

Your sister, huh . Thats an awkward time .

I think this is the end of me here in MG . I could only come this far thanks to you, Chairman . I will not forget this .

Thats a pity . When are you planning to go to America?

In two months .

Please finish up your work properly . Also, lets have a meal before you go there .

Since this was about his family as well, Chairman Won JinMoon no longer had an excuse to hold him here . He closed his eyes and gestured to him to leave .

Just as KangYoon left and passed by the secretary,

Director Kim JinHo . The chairman is looking for you .

Looks like hell get thrashed badly . Well you reap what you sow .

Bypassing the secretarys office, he shrugged his shoulders . Then, he headed to his next destination, the presidents office .

In her office, there were two guests along with the president herself . It was Producer Akabashi and Oda .

Team Leader Lee . Welcome .

[Hello?]

[Producer, Hello . ]

KangYoon shook hands with Producer Akabashi, who he never imagined seeing here . After last time, when he invited him and HeeYoon to a meal, they became very close . Producer Akabashi was also very grateful for KangYoon for giving him a clue to solve his business relationship with JooAh .

[This is Oda Futaba-san . Hes a guitarist and]

Producer Akabashi introduced Oda to KangYoon . KangYoon greeted him as well and then heard about the reason they had come here .

[The concert, you say?]

[I saw the breakdancing concert last time, and it was very impossible . The intro, the collaboration, and the final act was very powerful and caught the attention of the audience . I liked how you focused on the most important things . ]

They were definitely here to talk about the concert . And just as he had expected, Oda wanted to request KangYoon to stage a concert in Korea .

He was thankful for Odas words but had to shake his head .

[I am very sorry . It will be hard for me to help you . ]

[Sorry?]

For Oda, this was a completely unexpected matter . He asked back .

[You havent heard of my conditions yet . ]

[I apologize, but I have decided to go to America due to my sisters affair . I think it will be very difficult . ]

[Ah, the lady from last time . ]

Producer Akabashi interrupted . KangYoon nodded his head .

[Yes . Due to an opportunity, my sister is about to receive an organ transplant . I am very sorry, but I will have to refuse . ]

Oda seemed to be very disappointed as he sighed . Since it was about his family, there were no compromises . He went left the office for a bit with Producer Akabashi, saying that he had to think about it . The office was left with KangYoon and President Lee HyunJi .

So, you handed it in .

I did .

The chairman must have been very disappointed .

He called for Director Kim JinHo .

Looks like that guy would get thrashed . Such a foolish guy .

President Lee HyunJi poured some tea for KangYoon .

Thank you .

So our days together in the company are numbered . When are you going to America?

After I clean everything up, I am thinking about in two months .

Thats a pity . So, youre going to study while youre there?

Yes . Im planning to cool my head for a year or so .

Thats good . You should properly learn everything that ChanYang-seonbae taught you too .

Other than that, KangYoon talked about cleaning things up here and stood up from his seat . When KangYoon left, Producer Akabashi and Oda returned . President Lee HyunJi apologized to them and offered to introduce another concert planning company . Although it took a little time to persuade Oda, the matter was finished up well .

***

Recently, Eddios did not come to the company much . Due to various events and recordings for TV programmes, they would have a hard time even with body doubles .

Meanwhile, lightning struck on Jung MinAh .

Wh . What? Hes quitting!?

MinAh! Dont open your eyes!

While getting her eye makeup done, Jung MinAh reacted very sensitively to a huge piece of news . Thanks to that, the coordinator doing her eye makeup slipped her hand . Not caring about that, Jung MinAh turned around and nagged the one who said the news, Manager Han TaeHyung .

What do you mean by that? Why would he quit?

You know about the embezzlement a few days ago, right?

Yes, that complete and utter nonsense dont tell me its real?

Jung MinAh was really angry . KangYoon? Embezzlement? She started nagging Manager Han TaeHyung, saying that theres no way her idol KangYoon, would so such things .

Theres no way its true . Why would he do that in the first place?

Obviously . Anyway, whys he resigning when he did nothing wrong? Just what is it? Isnt the other side in the wrong?

Yes . For now, Director Kim JinHo is suspended from work for trying to frame the Team Leader of embezzlement, but . I dont know the details either .

Manager Han TaeHyung didnt know the details . Jung MinAh couldnt hold it anymore and called KangYoon, but all she got was a robotic voice .

Im going to go there after this .

Go where?

Where else? The office, of course .

After fixing her make-up, the recording began again . Although she felt nervous because of KangYoon, she was still a professional .

Good! A little more to the left .

After a messy round of following the photographers demands, the skies darkened .

When the photographer gave the okay after checking all the photos, the session ended with everyone greeting each other . Jung MinAh quickly bid them farewell and headed to the van .

Hes still here!

From the outside of the company, she could see that KangYoons office was still lit . She didnt even look back and ran to his office .

Ahjussi!

Jung MinAh burst through the door while panting .

What the hell!?

KangYoon, who was clearing things up, suddenly stood up in surprise due to the sudden entrance . However, he felt awkward after finding out that it was Jung MinAh .

At least, knock, would you?

Is that the problem right now?

Usually, she would act cute or play pranks, but today was different . She started causing a mess right in front of KangYoons desk .

You resigned? Why did you do that? Did something happen? Really? Really?

One by one . okay?

Why so suddenly, why?

Calm down a little first .

Jung MinAh sped up her speech in agitation . KangYoon first sat her down and gave her some tea to calm her down . She sat down on the sofa and sighed after some time .

Phew .

Did you run all the way here?

Yes . I ran up from the ground floor .

Thats amazing . Whats up today? Arent you busy nowadays?

Its .

But now that KangYoon actually asked, she could not think of what to say . She just hated to see KangYoon quit . She just couldnt express it .

KangYoon wondered while looking at her lips twitch .

Didnt you come here because you had something to say?

Its . uh .

Since youre here, have some tea .

KangYoon stood up from the sofa . Only when he cleared up his work properly could his successor succeed his work . He was busy and didnt have time to confront her .

At that time, Jung MinAh abruptly stood up and shouted .

Dont go!

MinAh .

Who am I supposed to believe in once you arent here? Please dont go!

She shouted her lungs out . KangYoon ended up laughing .

MinAh . What the heck does that mean?

I mean dont go! *sob sob!*

But her emotions seem to have overwhelmed her as she teared up before she collapsed onto the sofa and lowered her head . Her usual energy was nowhere to be seen . Once her tear glands burst, they burst like a waterfall .

This sheesh .

KangYoon walked back and sat down next to her .

*Sob sob!!*

There, there . Stop crying . Youre doing well, right now, arent you? Stop crying .

Dont . go .

Seeing Jung MinAh having difficulty saying those words while heaving, KangYoon felt both sorry and grateful . Until now, no one was this honest with him . He also felt quite emotional .

Thanks .

*Sob sob*

KangYoon hugged the girl who honestly showed her true self .

He felt bitter in one corner of his heart . Although he didnt really take it to heart when seeing the others, he finally felt that he was actually leaving for real .

It really is bitter .

Consoling Jung MinAh, KangYoon made a bitter smile .
