Real Man

The MWC (World Mobile Exhibition), which is held every February, is a showcase of the latest smartphones.

Here, smartphone companies from all over the world participate and compete.

As it was an important exhibition, many people from the mobile strategy team were planning to attend.

Due to Apple’s absence, the most attention-grabbing company was Ilsung.

There were already rumors that Ilsung would win the highest innovation award.

The stronger Ilsung’s light was, the darker the shadow was on Hansung, which was called a rival.

This time, too, countless news related to it would be derived.

Wouldn’t such news pop up every other day?

The forces of Shin Kyung-soo would not miss this opportunity.

Yoo-hyun could see their movements clearly.

Yoo-hyun returned to his seat after parting with Team Leader Na Do-yeon.

‘By now…’

It was when Yoo-hyun was sitting and thinking about this and that.

Kwon Se-jung, the assistant manager, stuck his head in as usual.

“What are you thinking about so much?”

“I’m thinking about my colleague who was slumped until a while ago.”

“Hey, I was like that for a moment. I’m not like that now.”

Yoo-hyun shrugged his shoulders as he looked at Kwon Se-jung, who was flustered.

“Didn’t you do that too?”

“Ah, Hyun-woo. Well, he did change.”

“How about you, Se-jung?”

He pretended not to, but if it was about change, Kwon Se-jung was not easy either.

Kwon Se-jung, who was embarrassed, changed the subject.

“Me? I don’t know. But don’t we have a team dinner?”

“What team dinner?”

“We’re done with the report, right? If we overcome such a big mountain, we should have a drink together and cheer up! Don’t you think we should do that?”

Yoo-hyun answered sullenly to Kwon Se-jung’s words.

“If you want to, you can suggest it to the team leader.”

“How can I do that? You can see the team leader’s style clearly.”

“What’s wrong with his style?”

“He’s obviously an individualist, right? He won’t even deal with people except for work, let alone a team dinner.”

He had a good sense, so he guessed Team Leader Na Do-yeon’s personality correctly.

This was also a characteristic of the people who were doing well in the group strategy room.

They were stingy with human relationships as they had a strong sense of elitism.

Like Yoo-hyun in the past.

“He does have that side.”

“See? That’s why the team atmosphere is so bleak. It’s good to do well at work, but he’s too lacking in humanity.”

“But he ate lunch with us last time.”

“That was because there was some team operating budget left.”

“That’s still generous of him.”

“Why? Wasn’t he like that when you were in the group strategy room?”

Kwon Se-jung seemed very curious, but he couldn’t tell him.

It’s not because it was a secret.

-They all said they wanted to eat eel. Since you don’t like eel, I guess you have to eat separately.

He didn’t have the confidence to explain the childish situation at the time.

Yoo-hyun, who remembered Team Leader Shim Byeong-jik’s ridiculous words, chuckled.

“No. I’m just saying.”

“Anyway, it’s a shame. I feel like drinking a little.”

“Then let’s go by ourselves.”

“Leaving the team people behind?”

“There will be a chance next time.”

It would be nice if the whole team got together, but they weren’t that close yet.

Instead of forcing something that didn’t work, waiting for the right time was also a way.

Kwon Se-jung asked bluntly at Yoo-hyun’s words.

“Who pays for the drinks?”

“Do you think I’ll ask you to pay?”

“Okay. I’ll get ready right away.”

Maybe it was because he was too tight and relaxed recently?

Kwon Se-jung looked excited as he shrugged his shoulders.

It wasn’t just Kwon Se-jung who wanted a drink.

Yoo-hyun also wanted to buy a drink for his hard-working colleagues.

He also had a lot of stories he wanted to hear.

Everyone had the same mind, so they got up from their seats as soon as the quitting song came out.

Jiing.

It was the moment when he opened the door at the entrance of the 8th floor and came out.

Kwon Se-jung, who had been holding his mouth shut, said one word.

“Hyun-woo, do you even ask for permission from Shin Manager when you leave work?”

“I just greeted him out of habit.”

“What greeting? You looked so careful and cautious when you talked to him.”

Jeong Hyun-woo was angry at that.

“What about you? You ran out as soon as you saw that Kim Manager wasn’t here.”

“Hey, that’s not it. I’m strict about separating work and personal life.”

“So am I.”

The two men were bickering over nothing.

They both saw each other eating rice in their eyes, but they pretended not to, so it was funny.

Yoo-hyun shook his head in disbelief.

Ding.

The elevator door opened and two men walked out.

Yoo-hyun greeted them politely as he recognized their faces.

“Hello.”

The colleagues who sensed the atmosphere also bowed their heads in turn.

One of the men, who had a dark complexion and a sharp look, reached out to Yoo-hyun.

It was Park Do-gwon, the manager who assisted Mrs. Hong Jin-hee at the Royal Family banquet.

He moved to the innovation strategy room as the manager in charge of management strategy and became a team leader.

“Manager Han, long time no see.”

“Yes, team leader. Nice to see you again.”

“That’s right. It’s a cruel fate.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

He met him through Director Lee Jun-il, but the past was the past.

Park Do-gwon, the team leader, smiled and introduced Yoo-hyun to the man next to him.

“Oh, do you see Team Leader Yu for the first time? Say hello. This is Han Yoo-hyun, the manager who was briefly in the group strategy room.”

“Nice to meet you. I’m Yu Seok-won.”

“Nice to meet you. I’m Han Yoo-hyun.”

Yoo-hyun then shook hands with the man who had a long face and a gentle smile in his eyes.

Squeeze.

He still had the habit of putting a lot of strength in his hand when shaking hands.

When Yoo-hyun smiled as he held his hand, he raised his eyebrows as if surprised.

“You’re a very energetic guy.”

“Thank you.”

“Sure. I look forward to working with you.”

“I look forward to working with you, too, team leader.”

Yu Seok-won, the team leader, smiled faintly after Yoo-hyun’s sincere greeting and walked away.

Yoo-hyun looked at his back and recalled an old memory.

-You should be able to ask fundamental questions about how to contribute and improve through human resources. To do that, you should naturally have the basic numbers in your head.

Team Leader Yu Seok-won was the part leader when Yoo-hyun moved to the human resources support position.

He was famous for having all the human resources information across the group in his head.

Under him, Yoo-hyun worked really hard.

He had to memorize not only the human resources information of all the subsidiaries, but also the contents of the competitors.

At that time, he thought it was absurd, but thanks to that process, Yoo-hyun was able to have a broader perspective.

He began to see the complex interests and the movements of countless people within them, among the subsidiaries within the group, among the competitors, and within the society.

That was also the point when he started to see that.

Yoo-hyun respected Team Leader Yu Seok-won that much.

Although he didn’t work with him for a long time, he was the best human resources expert Yoo-hyun had ever seen.

He was also the person Yoo-hyun insisted on bringing to Shin Kyung-soo, the vice president.

He was preparing for the organizational innovation of Shin Kyung-soo’s regime.

The integrated organization of the mobile phone business unit was already included in the category.

He didn’t know that Yoo-hyun was the originator of the proposal.

‘I look forward to working with you.’

Yoo-hyun greeted Team Leader Yu Seok-won again, who was moving away.

The team dinner was held at the tripe restaurant where Jang Jun-sik, the assistant manager, had his first dinner with Yoo-hyun.

It was the result of actively reflecting the opinion of Jang Jun-sik, who wanted to eat tripe because he hadn’t eaten it for a while.

A large pot was placed on the round table, and alcohol was placed next to it.

Sizzle.

With the sound of tripe cooking as the background, Kwon Se-jung, the assistant manager, who filled the empty glass, asked.

“I didn’t even know that the two of you were team leaders.”

“The two you met earlier?”

“Yeah. The ones who said they belonged to the management strategy department.”

Kwon Se-jung didn’t even hear that the two were in charge of management strategy.

Yoo-hyun explained the reason briefly.

“It’s natural, since the organization chart wasn’t shared, and we didn’t meet separately.”

“But why do they run the innovation strategy room so closed?”

“Is it different from before?”

“Yeah. It seems to have changed a lot since the management strategy department was created.”

Yoo-hyun admitted it from the beginning.

As Yoo-hyun said, the management strategy department followed the group strategy room’s operating method.

This was the condition that Shin Kyung-soo, the vice president, proposed when he scouted the staff.

The story behind it was a bit long, so Yoo-hyun gave a brief answer.

“It’s a newly established organization to deal with human resources and management in general. Security is that important.”

“Is that so? It doesn’t feel like we’re in the same organization.”

“They must be moving strategically from above.”

“I guess so. That’s why they brought you.”

Kwon Se-jung, who had a broad view, didn’t seem to understand the overall situation well.

That’s how much work was going on under the water.

He would find out soon enough.

All this would be connected to the mobile phone business.

Yoo-hyun raised his glass for his hard-working colleagues.

“Come on, let’s have a drink. You all worked hard.”

“Thank you for your hard work!”

The glasses clinked with a refreshing sound.

The topic that had been off for a while was back on track as soon as the alcohol went in.

Everyone had a lot to say about the group work they had done.

“I suffered a lot under Kim Manager…”

“I learned life from the bottom up through Shin Manager…”

Only Jang Jun-sik was quiet.

He stirred the tripe without saying a word.

Kwon Se-jung asked him.

“Jun-sik, don’t you have any complaints? You worked hard under Yoo-hyun.”

“I don’t. I learned a lot.”

“What are you talking about? You make us look bad.”

“I really don’t.”

Jang Jun-sik waved his hand as he stirred the tripe.

He looked as good as a part-time worker.

He didn’t even know how to hold a spatula, but he grew up a lot.

Yoo-hyun looked at his proud junior with a pleased expression.

“Jun-sik, you stir the tripe well.”

“I don’t know about anything else, but I’m confident about this.”

“No, you’re good at everything else. You’ve improved a lot.”

“Thank you… No, I mean…”

“You can say thank you, now.”

“Thank you.”

As Jang Jun-sik bowed his head at Yoo-hyun’s words, Kwon Se-jung said with a surprised expression.

“What, did you stop him from saying anything he wanted?”

“That’s not it, dude.”

“What do you mean, that’s not it. This is pure evil. Jun-sik, you must have suffered a lot under this guy.”

“That’s not true.”

Jang Jun-sik waved his hand, and Kwon Se-jung said excitedly.

“Of course, what. Come to think of it, you seem worse than Kim Sung-deuk, the manager.”

“What’s worse?”

“What do you mean, worse. Kim Sung-deuk, the manager, has a unique style of killing people by draining their blood. That stubbornness that makes them speechless. You’re more than that.”

“…”

“And do you know how much Kim Manager torments people mentally? Not that he made them speechless like you, but… Hey, why are you all looking like that?”

Kwon Se-jung, who was babbling, noticed the sudden silence and paused.

He turned his head quietly as he saw the careful look of Jeong Hyun-woo, the assistant manager.

Swoosh.

At that moment, Kim Sung-deuk, the manager, who met his eyes, said calmly.

“It seems like you said up to the part where I torment people mentally. I’m curious, so keep going.”

“Huh! Ma, Manager!”

“Why are you so surprised? Did you see a ghost?”

“No, that’s not…”

“Tsk tsk.”

Kim Sung-deuk, the manager, clicked his tongue and got up to Kwon Se-jung, who didn’t know what to do.

It was a very affectionate sight of a senior and a junior.
