Then, I made eye contact with the newcomer.

“you.”

“Yeah?”

“come with me.”

“I-I have to help Toyama-senpai today, right?”

As she said that, the woman’s eyes turned to an employee named Toyama.

“are you busy?”

Then, startled, Toyama quickly waved his hand.

“no. I’m not busy.”

Seeing that reaction, Michiko looked back at her new recruit.

“Is that so?”

“No, I’m sure you’re busy today……”

“Okay, but now that I think about it, I think I can do it on my own.”

She says so and she smiles awkwardly. Then she turned her gaze elsewhere.

Michiko smiled and grabbed her newcomer.

“Okay. Then come with me.”

“Uh, where are you?”

“Printing Factory.”

At those words, the newcomer raised an impression and pulled her body away.

“No, why a printing factory? I heard that Machine Gun Jack hasn’t been edited yet.”

“It has nothing to do with it. And editing is solely up to Akagi-senpai, so I can’t intervene.”

“of course?”

“It’s because of Samsara, Samsara. I’m on trial again these days, so the printing factory is busy. Because I need someone to work with my body.”

“No, as you can see, my body is weak… And there is still time for lunch.”

“Where in the editorial department finds and eats all those things?”

“······nevertheless.”

“What are you talking about so much? Come on, let’s go!”

Saying so, she dragged the newcomer out.

“No, wait over there! Seniors!”

She looked at the staff with pitiful eyes, but everyone turned away from the newcomer.

“Eat everyone!”

At Kyunghee’s words, the fishermen stopped their work and settled their seats. And one by one they get up from their chairs.

Just then, the front door opened and Lee Dae-bong entered.

“Isn’t it too late yet?”

Seeing this, Somi Park smiled and said.

“Anyway, dinner time is really thorough.”



“Of course. Rather than eating outside, the food my mother made tastes the best.”

“Why are you your mother?”

As Silver got up from his seat and spoke, Daebong Lee laughed out loud.

“My mother is right. When I asked my mother before, ‘Isn’t that the son?’, I said, ‘Well, that’s right. Our James.’ That’s what he said.”

In the middle, she even pretends to be her mother.

But the action was so bizarre that the fishermen laughed out loud.

“James, why don’t you take the comedian test right now? You seem talented.”

“Yes. If it’s James hyung, I think it’ll fit. I don’t know if the popularity of Three and a couple will exceed.”

“Ah, that’s not it. Three and my husband also released a Christmas carol last year.”

“I bought it.”

“Me too.”

The fishermen gathered around the kitchen table, laughing and chatting.

The fishermen took their seats at the already set table and sat down.

“I will enjoy this food.”

“I’m sorry I couldn’t help you today.”

“I’ll do it right tomorrow.”

The mother, who was putting the leftover side dishes at the fishermen’s words, said with a smile.

“Aww, it’s okay. I’m busy, but I need to save time. And I’m even more sorry that everyone suffered like this.”

“Ah, no. How great it is to be able to work here. A lot of my friends also want to join the studio here.”

“of course. Compared to other Japanese studios, it is ten times better. There is only one place that offers medical insurance and pension insurance.”

“You won’t find this even if you search the entire Korean studio.”

Originally, I wanted to solve all four major insurances, or to be more precise, all five major insurances, but I had no choice but to implement only two.

Of course, the full amount is paid in the studio.

I made a lot of money thanks to the fishermen, so that’s natural.

No, I still feel inadequate.

The welfare part is more concerned.

Of course, we are always discussing the matter with Kyunghee.

These days, I leave the operating expenses of the studio to Kyung-hee.

“Oh, what was Samsara talking about during the teacher’s phone call?”

Park So-mi asked.

He must have heard some of the phone call from Jiro just before lunchtime.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

I also forgot because it was almost lunch time.

“Oh, that’s it. Samsara reprints quite a bit.”

“Yeah? Why all of a sudden? Are you in the spotlight again because of the machine gun jack?”

“There is something like that, and it seems that Samsara Annie is very popular in Europe recently.”

At that, Daebong Lee asked with a puzzled expression.

“uh? It’s popular in Europe, so why are samsara sold so much in Japan?”

This time Silver answered instead.

“Because it is popular in Europe. The Japanese are also interested.”

“You don’t understand at all?”

As Lee Dae-bong tilted his head, Silver opened his mouth as he sat down with a glass of cold water.

“You don’t know the exit (??入?)? escape entrance. They say they have a longing for Europe from a long time ago.”

“The exit? what is that?”

“It means leaving Asia and entering Europe. It was claimed by a person named Yukichi Fukuzawa, who is now on the 10,000 yen note. Anyway, it’s been a long time since they admired white people.”

Silver shakes his head with a pathetic expression on his face.

However, the fishermen who saw it made a sound of ‘Oh~!’ almost at the same time.

“As expected, I am moved by Silver’s overflowing knowledge.”

“Because you are a human encyclopedia.”

“I am an intellectual, an intellectual.”

Silver coughed once in response to the people’s reactions and started eating again.

By the way, when you say intellectuals, why do you think of a green search engine?

“Anyway, Japanese people seem to admire Western people a lot.”

“If you look at it that way, Korea is also longing for Japan right now. It’s like that.”

“Yes. It’s ironic that I get angry when I think about the past, but I also admire it.”

“Can we be as prosperous as Japan before we die?”

“It is possible to live well, but it will be impossible in Japan.”

“Is that so?”

“right. Japan is the second richest country after the United States. Some say that the US will catch up soon. How are you doing in Japan now? semiconductors, electronic products, automobiles, and even shipbuilding. It’s sweeping the world. And they seem to be buying up real estate in the US.”

“It’s an atmosphere that will swallow up the whole world. They say it’s the biggest attack since Pearl Harbor.”

“They said they would catch up with the United States after 2000.”

“From now on, there is talk of doing business with foreign countries in yen rather than dollars.”

Suddenly, it became noisy with stories about Japan.

Hagi-ya, in Japan today, no one seems to be able to stop it.

From the perspective of today’s Koreans, Japan is a place that is nothing more than a four-dimensional wall that cannot be crossed like an empire built by aliens.

“I can’t tell you how proud we are that our cartoons are doing the best in such a place.”

“At this point, I think I’ll be interested in broadcasting.”

“Ah, there is nothing good about being on TV. I could be attacked by parents for nothing.”

“It’s not like we’re serializing comics in Korea, what?”

“Don’t you know that Korean publishers started importing Japanese manga recently? You heard that Dragon Ball will be serialized in Korea soon?”

“really?”

Park So-mi looked at me and asked.

“okay. Any talk about Machine Gun Jack?”

I shook my head.

“Not yet.”

“If you serialize it in Korea, you will have a lot of Korean fans.”

“There are still a lot of people I know secretly.”

“That’s because of the pirated version.”

“I can’t help it. Because there is no official income.”

“Only the pirates are making money.”

“I will.”

Still, the piracy market is not to the point of concern.

However, sooner or later, as Dragon Ball becomes an official import, the number of Japanese imported manga will increase explosively.

And sooner or later, Korean comics will be a little bit behind in competition with Japanese comics.

So the mid-90s passed, and after the IMF…

Well, it will fall endlessly like that.

It will only be revived in the form of a webtoon later, but it will be a dark period for a very long time anyway.

Oh, I’m tired of thinking about it again.

“However, the fact that our manga has already crossed over to Europe is a real answer. Because we are westerners who read our cartoons… It’s hard to imagine.”

“Aren’t rhinos human? All fun is the same.”

“Still, it is strange. It’s also surprising that anime is so popular.”

People were talking loudly, then the doorbell rang.

When her mother was about to leave, Kyung-hee jumped up.

“I’ll go out, Mom.”

After saying that, she moved back and forth, and her mother nagged her.

“Don’t run. It is dusty.”

“okay okay.”

She quickly swallowed the rice she had put in her mouth and walked out cautiously, and soon heard the sound of running.

“He is too. Why is it so urgent?”

Now that it is common for guests to come, my mother is more relaxed than before.

After a while.

Kyunghee came in and looked at me and said.

“Brother, a beautiful guest.”

you’re a beauty

“who? Nakaya-san?”

“no. Weekly rumor reporter.”

“Mine?”

“Huh.”

What happened to that woman all of a sudden?

Min-ne, who immediately showed her face from behind Kyung-hee, said with a smile.

“Hello everyone.”

Then her mother is the most happy.

“Come on. Did she eat?”

When Kyung-hee interprets those words, Min-e smiles and shakes her head.

“no. I haven’t eaten anything today.”

“You haven’t eaten anything since morning.”

“Oh my gosh. Come on, she sits down. James, if you’ve finished eating, leave a seat.”

Saying that, his mother raised Lee Dae-bong, who had been sitting there giggling.

Lee Dae-bong abruptly got up from her seat and left with her impression on him.

“Mother, how could you do this to me…”

“Okay. sorry. Because James was the only one who ate.”

“·················ogue.”

When Lee Dae-bong, whose face had chewed astringent persimmons, stepped back, Mine took her seat and sat there. She hurriedly puts her new bowl of rice in its place, Mine said with a smile.

“I will enjoy this food.”

“Yeah, I eat a lot.”

Mine ate in a hurry, as if to prove with her whole body that she hadn’t eaten her meal at all.

“it’s delicious.”

“It’s delicious.”

“I understand that.”

Everyone looked at her with a strange expression on her face, as if her Mine was surprised at how she ate her.

Then, she pushes the pink sausage that was next to her by Ki-cheol Kim, who was closest to her.

Then she noticed that Mine’s chopsticks got busier.

Wasn’t this girl starving yesterday too?

She eats like a starving person for a few days, and then she empties her rice and drinks a glass of water.
