< Taeseong is one family >

Kudangtangtang!

Trapped in the petrol in Bulgwang-dong, Kim Gap-yong rolled down the hallway of the hospital.

“Are you not going to pay me back? uh?”

“It’s only been 15 days since I borrowed the money, why…!”

“The interest has already doubled the principal amount.”

“what? Isn’t this really too much!”

“What is the interest rate on debentures originally like? If you say no, don’t use the loan from the beginning.”

Gasoline in Bulgwang-dong bounced off earwax.

“Pay my money back quickly. Unless you want to look very dirty. do you know what my nickname is? I am Bulgwang-dong gasoline.”

Gasoline from Bulgwang-dong pricked Kim Ga-yong’s chest with his finger.

“Don’t you think something very interesting would happen if I broke into your workplace?”

“What are you going to do…!”

“I’ll leave it up to the imagination to see what happens. Whatever you imagine, you will probably be able to face more than that. not my bet You will be fired from your job as of today. Kuk-kuk-kuk.”

Gasoline in Bulgwang-dong snooped around the hospital room, laughing.

Then Kim Gap-yong quickly ran and blocked the front of the hospital room with his whole body.

“Stop thinking nonsense. If I get fired from my job, it will be difficult to get paid.”

“Why can’t I get paid? Why did you buy insurance?”

Bulgwangdong Gasoline laughed meanly.

“If I break into the workplace and collect severance pay and insurance money, will I be able to collect enough of my money at once?”

“What are you talking about…!”

“Originally, people are born and die is the order of nature. Wouldn’t it be better if dying would help the household?”

Bulgwangdong Gasoline stuck his hand in his pocket.

“When you talk, you better listen. This is your final warning.”

“I’m going to call the police!”

“try. But is there any evidence? You’re using your head for weird things. Pay me back my money in the time to spend my hair. yes?”

Bulgwang-dong Gasoline turned his head left and right.

“After work, it will be a hospital. Did you say that the hospital bill was overdue? If I made up my mind and screwed up, your daughter would be kicked out of the hospital right away and left on the street. Is that okay? Kuk-kuk-kuk.”

“no!”

“Where was your job?”

“It’s not possible! No way!”

The petrol in Bulgwang-dong made a clicking sound when he flicked his hand.

“Oh right. Taesung Chemical! ok, ok Please wait.”

The gasoline in Bulgwang-dong went back and forth.

Kim Gap-yong leaned against the wall and breathed heavily.

“What the hell are you going to do!”

Kim Gap-yong gritted his teeth.

It was impossible to hide the look on the face of a person driven to the edge of a cliff.

“honey.”

Someone put a hand on Kim Gab-yong’s shoulder.

it was his wife

“Is it because of the hospital bill?”

“I’ll work it out somehow. don’t worry too much You just have to take care of Yerin.”

Kim Gab-yong held his wife’s hand.

“You are having a lot of trouble meeting an ugly husband. Nursing a sick child would be difficult, but I glued doll eyes, glued paper bags, and peeled garlic every now and then.”

“honey.”

“Sim said that. Taesung Construction gave an in-house loan to an employee who would buy an apartment. I want to put my last hope there.”

“Getting a loan is difficult. The competition rate will also count. It will be difficult.”

“I don’t know. You have to go down to see it. know what else? If you live hard, will there be a day when the sun shines even in the hole of the mouse? I don’t know anything else, but I am confident in doing my best.”

“You nosebleed!”

Kim Gab-yong stopped his nosebleed with the handkerchief his wife had given him.

“I’ll just go. I stopped by for a quick lunch break.”

“Are you working all night today? It’s time for Yerin to wake up soon, so go see her face.”

“Yerin said that she has a holiday work this weekend, so she won’t be able to come.”

Kim Gab-yong smiled.

“Tell me that I love you, that the picture was well received, and that my daughter is the best.”

Kim Gab-yong hurriedly left the hospital.

A sigh mingled with each heavy step.

Above Kim Gab-yong’s head, the countdown to the Nether Road, [4 hours], was twinkling.

He headed to the Taeseong Chemical Plant, not the Taeseong Construction site.

* * *

‘oh!’

I was forcibly thrown out of the blue-swaying scene.

It was because Kim Gab-yong, who was shaking hands with me, removed his hand.

“Brother, it was nice to meet you. The factory line is running, but I can’t be away for a long time, so I’ll just go back.”

Kim Gap-yong bowed politely and turned around.

‘You say it’s cut off like this? no! Grim Reaper, show me more of the back!’

I was curious about the back story.

I didn’t see the most important part.

‘I haven’t seen a single thing about what’s going on at Taesung Chemical in 4 hours, what happened to Captain Kim, and how things turned out like this!’

If we bump into Captain Kim again, wouldn’t we be able to see each other again?

In a sense of urgency, he reached out his hand toward Kim Gab-yong.

President Shim grabbed my staggering body.

“Bocchan, are you okay? Suddenly, the sound of breathing becomes rough, and the complexion is not very good.”

“Captain Kim!”

“I think it’s because of the smell of chemicals…”

“Wait! Captain Kim!”

“yes?”

Captain Kim looked back as he was about to return to the workshop.

“I have something to tell you! So wait a minute…!”

“Aww, Bocchan! If you move like that, you will fall!”

President Shim grabbed me at once when I was tilting.

‘Grim reaper, I’m more curious about what’s behind me! I have to show you that!’

It was then.

The blue color shimmered before my eyes again.

It felt like being sucked into a blue scene.

* * *

Quaang!

The sound of a huge explosion coming from close by.

Looking through the window, I saw the Taesung Chemical factory engulfed in flames.

President Shim, who was sitting face to face with Woo-gwang’s takeover negotiating team, jumped up.

“Damn it!”

Sim rushed out of the conference room.

“Call the fire engine first! Evacuate people safely! hurry! Hurry up!”

Woo-gwang’s takeover negotiating team, which had been arguing over every single thing, was surprised and ran after them.

“What is this?”

“Which factory and why did it explode?”

Sim shouted out loud.

“Aren’t you going to check it out now!”

President Sim saw the fire rising above Factory 6 and swaying wildly.

People who assist and carry the wounded who have been burned.

The floor of the clearing was strewn with wounded people who were lying and moaning.

There seemed to be well over 50 people.

“Evacuate the wounded to the parking lot! Take all the raw material transportation vehicles outside!”

Covered in soot, someone ran and reported.

“Chief Kim of Factory 4 and Work Squad 1 are in danger!”

“Why are the people in Factory 4 again?”

The place where the fire broke out now was not the 4th factory, but the 6th factory.

“As soon as we heard the sound of the explosion, Captain Kim and the people from the 1st work team ran to the 4th plant and rescued several injured people! That we have to save the people who are now lying down inside…”

Quaang!

At that moment, a huge explosion sounded.

In this way, Taesung Chemical’s 6th plant was completely consumed by the flames, emitting black soot.

* * *

The blue scene in front of my eyes faded.

I broke out in a cold sweat.

‘sh*t. How many people were killed and injured?’

It was something I vaguely foreboded when the grim reaper floated the countdown to the nether road and orange arrows above people’s heads.

‘The accident killed 23 people and 166 people were escorted to the hospital.’

The scene of the flames spreading in all directions along with black smoke soaring high into the sky was vivid.

It was a mess where people’s cries and painful screams were heard.

‘Still, compared to the Taesung Group report, the number of injured seemed to be significantly lower. As the takeover of Taesung Chemical started in earnest, the plant’s operation rate was reduced, and most of Taesung Chemical’s employees were sent to Taesung Construction.’

Unlike reason, which was coldly sinking, the heart was seething with heat.

Precious lives were lost in vain.

Innocent people were suffering.

I closed my eyes.

‘It was an accident that made the Blue House angry and called the group leader.’

My heart was heavy, and my head was complicated.

“young master?”

Kim Gab-yong and President Shim were looking at me with worried expressions.

“Oh, you’re so tired of it.”

“Even cold sweat! Is it really not that bad?”

I shook my head.

“no. I’m fine.”

“Bocchan, shall we go back home?”

“Chief Shim, why don’t you stop by the hospital first, just in case?”

I waved my hand.

“It’s really okay. I mean…”

There’s no way to explain what?

At that time, the people who were watching this side could hear whispers.

“What is it? He said he had to return to the workshop quickly. Why isn’t Captain Kim here?”

“Looks like the kid has come. Could that kid be Captain Kim’s?”

“Ah, that’s your daughter. You must be in Taeseong Hospital right now? He’s a kid I don’t know.”

“is it? Come to think of it, he really is a handsome boy from a rich family.”

Their eyes met.

‘ah······!’

Above their heads, the letters [10 days] were still twinkling.

It shone like a star above the heads of more than ten people.

‘Are they the ones who jumped into the burning factory to save their colleagues along with Captain Kim?’

They were innocent faces.

They were people who gave up holidays and worked hard.

Eyes filled with small curiosity and deep tiredness were looking at me.

When our eyes met, people just smiled and waved their hands a little.

I checked the name tags on their chests with Overlock.

‘Choi Beom-seok, Lee Cheol-yong, Park Jin-seop, Song Won-gil, Oh Dae-man, Kang Woo-jin, Ko Seong-hak, Kim Gyeong-ho, Jeong Il-gun, Park Man-soo, Choi Young-jun, Ko Dae-young, Yoon Hyun-oh, and Lee Kyu-hyuk.’

Sim’s words were right.

They were the pride of Taeseong.

I repeated the name in my mind once more.

“I think this is all the president’s fault! That bastard’s rice cake soup!”

Sim clicked his tongue.

“I knew it! He served rice cake soup in front of so many people! I was worried, so I even brought digestive medicine!”

President Sim, who was squatting and watching me, jumped up.

“I can’t. Even if I did a sieve, I think I did it firmly. I have to go to Taeseong Hospital right now!”

“Wait! I have something to say to Captain Kim!”

I desperately grabbed Captain Kim’s overalls.

Detective Kim seemed surprised, but he didn’t know what to do with his eyes wide open.

“yes?”

“You don’t have to worry about hospital bills!”

He threw his whole body to save the Taesung Chemical family.

“Taesung is one family!”

I like a loyal man

“I’m trying to support hospital expenses for Taeseong’s family!”

Captain Kim tilted his head.

“yes?”

Detective Kim seemed to have no idea what was going on, and kept saying stupid things from earlier.

I looked back at Sim.

“It was like that before. Captain Kim’s daughter is sick and is benefiting from company medical insurance. It is difficult because the surgery schedule is not set.”

I decided to help Kim Gab-yong.

‘To be honest, from the beginning, I brought up the topic of donation to Taesung Hospital with Kim Gab-yong in mind. For three reasons.’

First, since he was a person with a sufficient motive for the crime, he intended to persuade him not to start a fire at Taesung Chemical.

Second, as much as it was announced in front of the executives of Taesung’s affiliates, it was planned to highlight Taesung Chemical’s side and make it stand out.

Thirdly, Mr. Cheolgu’s shaft was golden, so I thought I’d buy insurance just in case.

‘But now I think it’s okay.’

i want to help him

My heart moved.

That’s it.

“I want to help Captain Kim. Can’t we?”

“What could not be? First of all, isn’t it a new year’s gift? Originally, you use it where you want to use it.”

Sim smiled.

Shim gave a small pat on the shoulder to Kim Gab-yong, who was still bewildered.

“You seem very lucky this year. Today, Master Jeong Hyuk declared that he would help the Taeseong family’s patients in front of the president and executives of affiliates.”

“yes?”

“You will know later when you look at the placard hanging at Taesung Hospital. The executives of Taesung’s affiliates joined in helping Taeseong’s family patients with one heart and one mind.”

“That, that’s what…”

“You’re saying you’re going to help with the money you’ve collected.”

Only then did Captain Kim’s mouth begin to open wider and wider.

“Stop, no way…!”
