Episode 58
* * *
Near a certain coastal area in Busan.
Una Sam let out a sigh.
‘A mansion that I can’t get used to every time I come… … .’
Is this the California of Korea? What is this LA?
This sight is of a mansion that would be acceptable only on the vast American continent, sitting on the narrow Korean Peninsula in Busan.
It was hard to look at no matter when I saw it.
Even if people passing by call me a rich person, I have nothing to say.
But the owners of the mansion are a bit too scary for that.
Una Sam sighed and straightened her clothes.
“Oh my. You’re here?”
“I hope you are doing well, Madam!”
“Your greeting is a bit excessive, kid.”
“I’m sorry!”
The middle-aged woman holding the papillon in her arms burst into laughter. It was a girlish smile.
‘But don’t be fooled.’
A living legend who was born as the daughter of a prominent gangster family and expanded her family’s power to an incredible extent during her generation.
The legend of Busan.
Moreover, she was a woman who brought in the prosecutor who had been chasing her to catch her as her son-in-law and did not even give her father’s surname to her children.
Madam Hwang pitifully covered her cheek.
“But you know, our youngest is still in a really… … kind of bad condition.”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah. What happened in Seoul?”
“Everything outside is like that. Besides, the weather is unsettling these days due to the changing of seasons, and as you know, the head is very sensitive, isn’t he?”
“Well… …Is it because I was raised in a modern art setting? My soul is born with a somewhat artistic disposition. Right?”
“yes…….”
Modern art, was that you?
Somehow, the personality was surreal and difficult to understand.
Una Sam walks with an uneasy expression on her face.
The exterior was American, the interior European. Either way, the house looked like a modern art piece.
Mrs. Hwang, who had guided us to the front door, said that the men should talk amongst themselves and (fortunately) gave us the space.
“Head, it’s Sam. I’m going in.”
A dark bedroom.
His back looked like it was asleep, but his right arm, Una Sam, who had been supporting him for a long time, was not fooled.
‘That tofu mental boss guy… … .’
“I’m on my way here after seeing the tearful selfie you posted on Instagram. Please wake up.”

It’s so exhausting and impossible to look your best in front of everyone.

“… … Stop it. I don’t feel like talking about my luggage.”
“You promised me on New Year’s Day that you would fix this habit of coming down to Busan every time you ate at Babylon.”
“Someone said they ate a room!”
“Then why did you come here as soon as you heard that Baek Do-hyeon had stamped the Babylon seal?”
“If you don’t close your mouth, I’ll really hit you hard.”
A speech that is completely drained of energy, apart from the harsh dialect.
Una Sam was silent.
‘It’s worse than I thought.’
There were several overlapping bad news.
Scouting failed, during the change of seasons, and… … hmm.
“Is that really why you’re doing this?”
Shudder.
“… … Haa. I already explained to you that Hyungbae misunderstood. Common sense tells you that both Gyeonjio and Gyeonjirok are of the Gyeon surname, so how can they be in such a relationship?”
‘Anyone can tell that we’re relatives.’
I have something to say about this, but later. After I calm down a bit.
“And now is not the time to be disturbed by such things. An official letter has arrived from Babylon.”
“… … What is it?”
Only then, the dusk turns to this side and lies down.
From the silk pajamas to the pale face pressed against the pillow, if it weren’t for the flashy tattoos, he’s definitely a young gentleman.
Una Sam reported, clicking his tongue inwardly.
“I’m talking about the 39th floor conquest competition. It was originally scheduled for next week, but the date has been changed to tomorrow.”
“… … Huh, isn’t this green dragon kid sick? Did he eat something wrong? Who the hell is changing it and acting up? Ha, stop it. I’m going. I’m not going.”
“There is a postscript… … .”
Una Sam, who had seen the twilight once, spoke in the driest tone possible.
“If you don’t show up, I’ll leave you behind, you little privates.”
“… … !”
Suddenly, the dusk of waking up from bed.
It wasn’t a surprise.
If I had to describe it, hmm. It’s like a face that’s so pissed off that the fuse has blown.
Twilight jumped up and down on the bed, swinging his fists and limbs in the air.
“Whoa, ha. What the heck! This kid’s got a new start! This green dragon bastard, go right ahead! Hey! Pak! Pak, like this, huh? I’m going to hit you!”
After a while of punching the air and throwing shadow knee kicks, Twilight glared and relaxed the muscles in his neck.
“What are you doing? Get the car ready right now! This guy is really not going to leave me alone. This time, who! Hey! Who’s up there! Pak!”
Hmm. I feel like I’ve gotten a little more energetic… … ?
Una Sam hesitated for a moment before speaking.
“But head.”
“ok?”
“I have something to report to you.”
“What is it? Tell me quickly.”
“You know that cat I mentioned last time?”
“Uh-huh. Nasam told me to wait and tell you when he was sure about something. Huh? Are you sure about something?”
“……yes.”
“You and Nok-Yong aren’t that close, right?”
“Yes. Definitely not. Not at all.”
Before Twilight’s face fully brightened, Una-sam quickly continued.
“We are real siblings.”
“Then that’s right… … !”
… …
……to?
“Kyunjio. Kyeonjirok. Born in January and December of the same year. Eleven months apart. Real siblings who grew up almost like twins.”
– It is said. Una-sam, who had finished reporting, took a deep breath and took a rest.
Quagga River. It seems like some kind of sound effect is being heard.
Twilight, when you fall down onto the bed in the same position you were standing in.
“Oh, head!”
“… … ”
“Hey, head… … ?”
“… … Randa.”
“yes?”
“I’m not going, I’m not going, I’m not going to Seoul!”
That’s the guild “Dawn”.
Confirmed non-participation in the competition.

Chiik, tak.
In the darkness, a light appeared and then disappeared.
The empty space is filled with thin wisps of gray smoke.
The tiger swallowed and spat out the cigarette smoke.
It may be sacrilegious in a holy place, but it is not my religion.
And by this time, the Lord must have also left work.
Step, step.
I walked up the low stairs with leisurely and weighty steps. The interior of the cathedral was bathed in moonlight.
Old man. Or old age.
Or a lion.
An old man with a back like that was standing blankly in the darkness.
Looking down at the chrysanthemums in front of me.
“Representative.”
I called several times but there was no answer.
The tiger took a deep breath of smoke, exhaled, and slowly called out again.
“father.”
“… … Life is fleeting.”
“… … ”
“When young, you die in battle, when old, you die in time, and the fragrance of chrysanthemums never ceases.”
“It sounds incongruous and poetic.”
“Is that so?”
Eun Seok-won looked up at the front.
Stained glass on a moonlit night.
It was quite charming, although not as much as during the day.
“I can’t help but feel sentimental every time I send them off one by one.”
“… … ”
“Still, in the end, it’s still a ‘person.’”
The laughter of Asrahan’s father.
The tiger, who had stepped on the cigarette butt with his shoe, took out a new one and put it in his mouth. That must be it.
“Because you’re not a ghost.”
“Do you even know how to joke?”
“I live with the tendency to talk about everything lightly… … .”
It was in my mouth.
The man who lit the cigarette laughed. Eun Seok-won also laughed. It was a much lighter laugh than before.
“He’s a good kid.”
“It’s a problem because I’m indifferent.”
“That’s the kind of time it is. When you give your heart, it doesn’t get lighter, it gets heavier. You collapse because of the weight.”
“… … ”
“That’s the world.”
“… … ”
“Hey, Tiger.”
“yes.”
A lonely gaze swept over the coffin. Eun Seok-won closed his heavy eyelids.
“She is the woman I briefly loved when I was young.”
“… … ”
“Would you like me to offer you some incense? If you go to the afterlife in peace, my heart will be less disturbed.”
The ghost lord, the tiger, silently lit fire in the air.
The way out after turning around.
There was no need for a long conversation between the two rich men.
Sentences continued intermittently, only when necessary. The sound of shoes hitting the stone floor filled the gaps in conversation.
“… … Oh, really? So you work at Jirok’s?”
“You must have sensed a crisis. Isn’t your wit amazing?”
“It’s a good thing. There’s nothing wrong with broadening your circle of friends. I was always worried that Geo was too narrow-minded.”
“You’re still young. It’ll get better.”
“Do you know that sometimes you are softer towards Geo than towards me?”
“Not just sometimes, but every moment.”
“Well, you must have lived only looking at Geo for over 10 years.”
“… … ”
“Who lives in such a narrow space?”
“… … ”
The wind is cold.
Eun Seok-won admired the night that had fallen on his son-in-law. He looked up at the distant moon.
“What can I do if my weakness is so big?”
“… … ”
“I’m worried that I might not be able to properly lead Pride after I die.”
“The rock has already been well-cleaned, so nothing will be difficult.”
“Tsk tsk, you’re becoming a snake.”
The eldest son.
Also, the strongest… … .
“Hey, Tiger.”
“yes.”
“Don’t be such a cruel leader to your brothers.”
“They are my brothers, whom my father passed down to me. How could that be?”
“Well, that’s fortunate.”
Tigers are inherently more cruel than lions. Eun Seok-won replied with a bitter smile.
“Ah. Bambi said he’d like to change the date of the competition to tomorrow afternoon. I’ll pick you up around noon.”
“I get it, that guy has a short temper.”
Guild “Silver Lion”.
Confirmed attendance at the conference.
A guide to proper living for rankers.
