Son of a Conglomerate at the Highest Level

＜ Gorgeous apology, modest sincerity ＞

I turned off sight sharing with the grim reaper.

‘As expected, my father!’

A smile came out without me knowing.

When everyone else is talking about business, a man who can take a step back and call out to people!

That was our father.

‘Certainly, it would be difficult to accommodate all the injured at Woogwang Hospital alone.’

I recalled what the Taesung chemical fire accident was like in the past.

Unfortunately, however, the Taesung Group report did not contain anything related to it.

‘My grandfather immediately held an emergency press conference to announce an apology to the public, and established the Taesung Foundation by donating 3 billion won of his own money.’

That was what was written in the Taesung Group report.

However, Wookwang Group’s report tells a little more about this.

‘Didn’t the grandfather who resigned from the position of the head seriously damage his health by running the Taesung Foundation himself and working tirelessly to help the victims’ families?’

It is said that the grandfather tried to take care of the victim’s family rather than putting all his efforts to prevent Taesung Engineering & Construction and Taesung Chemical from becoming independent.

‘How will Chairman Kim of Woogwang come out?’

The grim reaper suddenly appeared.

[Sheesh, I missed all the soap operas. There were only boring programs to watch tonight.]

It was a frenzy to watch a television program.

‘Even if I eavesdrop on the meeting all night, it won’t change much. It’s a working-level meeting after this.’

In-depth discussions on specific strategies would begin.

It hurts my head to hear that.

What I’m interested in is the strategic direction, because field work is something I can’t do.

[No, why is this happening again?]

The grim reaper cried out in great indignation.

When I turned my head, I saw a large subtitle on the TV screen and the image of Chairman Woo-Kwang Kim, the head of the Woo-Kwang Group.

＜Announcing an urgent press conference by Woo-Kwang Kim, CEO of Woo-Kwang Group＞

this time?

It wasn’t long before the national anthem was played, and it was late at night, when a curfew would soon occur.

The TV screen reflected an auditorium that seemed to be the headquarters of the Wookwang Group.

Standing in front of the podium with Woo-Kwang’s logo, President Kim of Woo-Kwang turned on the microphone.

-Dear citizens, I, Kim Woo-gwang, bow my head and offer a sincere apology regarding the unfortunate accident that took place at the Woo-gwang Chemical Plant today.

It was Chairman Kim’s public apology for the Wookwang chemical fire accident.

As Chairman Kim lowered his head, the camera flash clicked in a dizzying way.

As the TV screen illuminated the other side of the auditorium, the presidents and executives of Wookwang Group affiliates lined up in the auditorium and bowed 90 degrees.

– I apologize!

-I am sorry for causing concern to the people!

It was Woo-gwang’s apology.

Chairman Kim read the apology he had prepared in advance, word by word.

-Once again, I bow my head and deeply apologize to all the victims and families of Wookwang Chemical, as well as the public. We, Wookwang, will do our best to deal with the accident, and we will make efforts to clearly identify the cause of the fire accident, as well as promise sincere compensation for the victims and their bereaved families.

The presidents and executives of Woogwang’s affiliates shouted loudly.

-Woo-gwang will take care of it!

– This will never happen again!

That’s how the TV subtitles changed.

＜Woo Kwang’s Public Apology: A Sincere Apology and Promise to Investigate the Cause＞

-We, Wookwang, will continue to put safety first and be reborn as Wookwang Chemical, which gives trust to customers. We will keep our promise to our customers no matter what damages the company has.

Chairman Kim of Woo Kwang looked straight at the TV screen.

-We will be reborn as a completely new company to fundamentally relieve the anxiety of all customers and citizens who love Wookwang Chemical and restore market trust.

There was not a single word that he would appear on his own.

– We will do our best to ensure that Wookwang Chemical products can be trusted and used.

There was no word about compensation for the bereaved families.

-Moreover, we promise to become a company that contributes to the economic development of the country by putting safety and social values first.

Not a single word came out about the establishment of the Wookwang Foundation.

-Finally, once again, I bow my head and deeply apologize to all the people who were affected by the Wookwang Chemical fire accident.

With that, Woo Kwang’s public apology press conference was over.

I was speechless.

‘Huh, didn’t you even say that you were resigning from the position of commander in the sense of self-reflection?’

You mean this is a public apology from a conglomerate?

This is the position and decision of the head of a company that caused nearly 200 casualties, right?

‘Woo-gwang…’

Chairman Kim of Woo Kwang-eui took a completely different course from his grandfather, who was the head of Taesung Group.

‘Shall we leave it alone at the Blue House?’

There must have been pressure from the Blue House, and Chairman Kim must have made a public apology this late at night.

What happened?

I didn’t think the owner of the Blue House, whom I peeped at at the Hyunmu Hotel, would go over so easily.

‘Is this really the end? It’s a big company, right?’

* * *

It was a strange thing.

I expected that when the day dawned, there would be scathing criticism about the public apology of the previous night.

The press was in a hurry to package Woo-gwang.

＜The sincere apology of the CEO of Wookwang Group worked!＞

＜Woeful Promise! Wookwang will take responsibility and investigate the cause of Wookwang Chemical’s fire accident!＞

＜The scene of the fire accident being quickly cleaned up under the direction of Chairman Woo-Kwang Kim!＞

It was to the point of cursing.

“These giraffes! How much money did you get and eat?”

It wasn’t just the newspaper.

Even on TV, well-packaged news about the Woogwang fire was pouring out.

-President Kim Woo-gwang prepared a joint incense burner for the victims of the Woo-kwang chemical fire accident!

-We have in-depth coverage of the procession of remembrance that continues all over the place!

– See you in detail on the nine o’clock news!

In fact, at the joint incense burner for the dead of Wookwang Chemical, Chairman Kim of Wookwang did not even show his nose.

The news cameras showed funeral flowers sent from all kinds of affiliates of the Wookwang Group filling the halls of Wookwang Hospital.

Members of the ruling party and opposition parties who visited the joint incense burner quickly put their faces in front of the microphone.

-It is devastating to think that so many people have died and been injured.

– It is time for all of us to join forces to prevent such a devastating tragedy from happening again.

It was the greed of politicians who wanted to stamp their faces by adding even one word.

Click.

[Why turn off the TV! It’s time for a daily serial soon!]

‘It’s because I don’t want to look bad.’

[You don’t have to watch the news. Daily soap operas are not guilty. You can’t watch the broadcast you missed!]

No matter what the grim reaper said, I didn’t move with my arms crossed.

At that time, my mother stuck her head out from the kitchen.

“Junghyuk-ah, let’s have dinner.”

I have no idea.

“Tomorrow morning, I will go to Taeseong Hospital with my mother.”

Taesung Hospital?

Oh right!

Tomorrow is the day we decided to deliver donations for patients with Taeseong family.

* * *

My mother and I took Uncle Cheol-gu’s jeep and headed to Taeseong Hospital.

A lot of the bruises of Mr. Cheol-gu, who had been colorful in those days, had disappeared.

“Are you still busy catching spies these days?”

“of course. I catch all the spies in this country! don’t you know? Uhahahaha, I’m officially back from tomorrow!”

The Court gave me a long vacation because I was tortured in the torture room at Seobing High School.

It looks like you are going back to work after your vacation is over.

Iron Man gently turned the steering wheel.

“Mrs. Kang, what are you so nervous about? Have you ever had a health checkup?”

“Then, I’ll take it for the first time since I grow hair. I will die of trembling.”

The voice of the landlord’s grandmother, who was sitting in the auxiliary seat, trembled uncharacteristically.

“How old am I? What should I do if a big bottle pops up?”

“Oh, Mrs. Kang. Sell your worries. Don’t you know why you’re getting a health checkup? It’s not that you catch it before it goes to the big bottle. Don’t you know the saying that you’ll block it with sputum, but you’ll block it with a hoe?”

right!

He hit Mr. Cheol-gu on the head with the handbag the owner of the house was holding.

“Why is there filthy phlegm coming out here! I’m dying of worry because my cough hasn’t stopped lately!”

This phlegm would not be that phlegm.

We arrived at Taesung Hospital.

My mother widened her eyes at the people camped out in front of the hospital lobby.

“Oh my, why are there so many people in front of the hospital?”

Couldn’t it be that Director Song of Taeseong Hospital gathered the medical staff?

There must be many patients brought to Taesung Hospital from the Wookwang chemical fire accident.

Most of the people camped out in front of the hospital were not medical staff.

“Director Song.”

“Bocchan, madam, are you here?”

Director Song greeted us at the corner of the main entrance with a very tired face.

So I asked.

“What are all these people doing?”

“We are the bereaved families and guardians of the Wookwang chemical fire accident.”

Come to think of it, the things they were holding were unusual.

There were eggs and tangerines as well as water bags.

Director Song wiped away a cold sweat.

“That’s it, isn’t today the last day of Woo-gwang’s joint funeral? After the joint funeral, news spread that Woogwang would come to the hospital here to comfort you. What is it?”

* * *

Upon entering Taeseong Hospital, there was a really large placard hanging there.

＜Taesung executives joined in helping Taesung family patients!＞

Even from a distance, my grandfather’s name was written in large letters at the top of the fundraising list, and my name was written right next to it.

A poster was pasted next to the placard.

＜The event to help Taeseong family patients was held at the suggestion of Master Cha Jeong-hyeok. The executives of Taesung’s affiliates, who joined the meaning of ‘Taesung is one family!’

On the poster, the reason and process for attaching these placards, and details about the family selected as the patient’s family and support for hospital expenses were written in detail.

It was clearly written only with facts, but the whole time I was reading it, my face was hot.

“The reason we brought the young master today is to hold a small event to help Taeseong family patients.”

In the corner where placards and posters were attached, there was a platform decorated with flowers and garlands, and the words ＜Help for Taeseong Family Patients＞ decorated with colored strings and balloons were hung.

This was displayed in the lobby for all people who come and go to Taesung Hospital to see.

“I was just trying to quietly support the hospital bills. I never meant to be so loud.”

After I found out about Kim Gab-yong’s situation, I did it with the intention of helping him pay for the hospital bill.

“You were the one who asked me to hang such a large placard in the hospital lobby.”

It was because he was considerate of Taeseong’s executives so that it was obvious that he had added a good heart to a good cause.

For them, honor was directly related to face and pride.

I just followed the teachings I learned at the year-end night.

“This time, thanks to the young master, there are 25 families of Taeseong’s patients who have received support for surgery and hospital expenses.”

That’s why there were quite a few people in suits besides those in Taesung construction work clothes.

“In terms of enhancing loyalty to the company, as well as boosting self-esteem. It is right to arrange an event like this, even if it is small, and show that the hard work for Taesung has not been forgotten.”

There was nothing wrong with Director Song’s words.

Just as I was trying to save face for Taeseong’s executives who opened their wallets with a good heart for a good cause, Director Song seems to have wanted to brighten up my face for planning this project.

“Hey, kid. Did you secretly do such good things behind your back?”

Mr. Cheolgu put his hand on my shoulder and smiled mischievously.

“Couldn’t this be accomplished by sticking sincerity through the doctor’s gown?”

Cheol-gu’s smile was filled with pride.

At that time, Gab-Yong Kim and former employees of Taesung Chemical, all dressed in ‘Taesung Construction’ work clothes, found us and rushed to us.

“Bocchan, are you here?”

Gab-Yong Kim and other people who sacrificed themselves to save their colleagues at Factory 6 were laughing innocently.From noble mtl dot com

Now, they have changed into work clothes called Taesung Construction, but the name of Overlock engraved on their chest is still the same.

‘Maybe because these people risked their lives to save their colleagues, only 23 people died in the Taesung chemical fire accident?’

The same fire accident occurred, but the death toll from the Wookwang Chemical fire accident reached 56 people.

“Thanks to the young master, we solved the problem of hospital bills, and our Captain Kim is excited to shovel these days.”

“Don’t talk. You go out to the field and work from dawn in the morning, and you supervise the night work while being exposed to the dew at night?”

“That would be true, too. What do you mean by saying that your daughter’s operation was a very successful, successful, great success? You will bury the bones in Taeseong.”

Kim Gap-yong and his wife bowed their heads.

“I heard from Director Song. Didn’t the young master plan this event to help the Taeseong family’s patients?”

It was an impressive voice.

“Thanks to you, my daughter was able to safely undergo surgery. After paying off all the overdue hospital bills…”

“Thank you, Bocchan. thank you so much.”

However, there was a familiar human being who walked in from the other side.

“Hey, Kim Gab-yong. When are you going to pay me back?”

It was Bulgwang-dong gasoline.
