Chapter 235 – Part 2. 1993
“Oh my boy. What respect do you say to your friend’s son? Take it easy.”
“Still, how do you say hello right away?”
“No. You’re my mother’s friend, so of course you have to tell me. That makes me comfortable.”
“That… Is that so? But Sungjin is really tall and handsome. It’s completely different from what you see on TV. I saw her win a gold medal at the Olympics and it was amazing.”
When Jin So-ra praised Seong-jin, her mother did not leave her smile on her face.
She was also a mother, a fool of her son.
Seong-jin greeted Jin So-ra and went into her room to wash, and she comfortably changed her clothes and came out.
Mother was preparing her meal, and Jin So-ra was playing with her So-hee on her lap, holding her hand.
Jin So-ra’s face was so cute that So-hee would die.
As Seongjin approached, Sohee greeted her brother and held out her hand.
Jin So-ra put on a regretful expression and handed her So-hee to Seong-jin.
“Sohee is so cute and pretty. I wish I had a daughter like that.. I wish Hee-kyung. He has such a handsome, successful son and such a pretty late child..”
So-ra Jin said her words to her mother in her kitchen with her really envious face on her face.
While diligently preparing her meal, her mother laughed at Jin So-ra’s words and salted her.
“Then. I am really very happy these days. I was also invited to the Blue House Businessmen Luncheon next week.”
“Really. I don’t invite anyone there… You must have really succeeded. Wow. Our Heekyung is doing well. I envy you.”
There was no end to the chatter between Mother and Jin So-ra.
Mainly, she said that she was proud of her mother, and Jinsora asked various questions.
When her mother asked her about her career in the entertainment industry, Jin So-ra used to give the impression that somehow she didn’t want to answer.
While Seong-jin was holding So-hee and playing with her, So-ra Jin knocked on the sofa next to him and asked So-hee to come and sit down.
Seong-jin doesn’t like her image of Jin So-ra, so she doesn’t want to talk much, but for some reason, Jin So-ra asks Seong-jin if he’s interested in her, and she acts friendly.
“Madam, can I call you Auntie? You are my mother’s friend. But for some reason, she is too young and beautiful to be called an aunt, so I don’t think she suits her. What should I call you?”
“Oh, she’s my friend, so just call her Aunt. Is it okay if I call her Aunt, Sora?”
“Then. Call her aunt Let’s get close to Seongjin too.”
“Yes. Then she will call me Auntie.”
Jin So-ra asked Seong-jin about the Olympics, college, and so on like a real aunt.
While Seong-jin was eating, her mother and Jin So-ra sat together at the table and drank tea while the three of them continued talking.
I thought the image of Jin So-ra as a prostitution broker, Madame Tu, and queen bee would be bad, such as cold, venomous, snobbish, arrogant, etc. .
She giggled and laughed while talking about her mother and what happened in her hometown when she was young, but it was so pure and naive that it made me doubt whether it was Jin So-ra, who is now called the best actress.
Even during the conversation, she was polite and considerate in the way she tried to take care of Sungjin.
Her bright smile made me doubt whether she was a real high-ranking prostitution broker and had sex with new male actors while changing them.
To be honest, in the middle of talking with her for hours, Seong-jin fell in love with Jin So-ra.
I knew so many things, and I came to know that I still have the sensibility of a girl, and in particular, I came to admire the beauty that doesn’t show age at all, especially in terms of face and body.
Of course, her mother also has a beauty and body that doesn’t look 39 years old at all, but she honestly couldn’t help but fade in front of the actress.
In the middle, Sohee fell asleep, so Seongjin put her to sleep on the bed in the master bedroom and came out.
After that, her mother brought out her wine, and they chatted happily until late into the night over a glass of wine together.
As soon as Seongjin also had a drink of hers, her initial reluctance disappeared and she was able to have a pleasant conversation while asking questions.
She tried to talk about Park Hee-seon, but she couldn’t because she didn’t think Jin-so, the person I saw today, was that kind of person at all.
She went back after 12 o’clock at night, her drunken Jin So-ra.
Her mother grabbed Sora to go to bed, but she then said she would invite us over to her house and was taken back by her manager.
Even though Jin So-ra passed away, her mother told her about the old days until she fell asleep in Sung-jin’s arms.
The fact that her mother liked meeting Jin So-ra so much made her wonder if it was her fault that she had Kim Doo-shik investigate her Jin So-ra back the other day.
Anyhow, the Jin So-ra Seong-jin I saw today was so different that I wondered if she had the wrong idea.
I felt like I had to wait a bit longer to see if this was a disguised look wearing a mask or a misrecognized look of Madam Ddu and the Queen Bee.
But just in case, I think we should get Park Hee-sun out as soon as possible.
Because Seongjin missed her so much.
The next day was the opening party.
After Seong-jin finished class, she stopped by the company to work, and after 7 o’clock, she hurriedly went to the Hope House in front of the school.
She tried not to attend because she was busy with work, but she had no choice but to attend because Yeonghee noona insisted that she attend the class opening party during the day.
Sung-jin said she was startled as she entered the bar.
Usually, when you have a start party, you have to sit on one side of the bar, but no matter how many people attended, most of the bar was occupied by the start party.
It wasn’t a buzz or a fuss.
“Oh~ our hope, Seongjin Lee, has finally arrived.”
When Seong-jin opened her door and entered, she found Seong-jin, and Yeong-hee’s sister got up and greeted her with shouts.
No matter how much she drank, Young-hee sister already had her tongue twisted.
Well, since the opening party started at 5:00, it was time for everyone to get drunk.
Even so, Yeong-hee noona’s condition seemed a bit serious.
When all eyes were on Seongjin, Seongjin greeted her from the entrance and found a seat.
She banged on the chair for Young-hee to come next to her, but the man sitting next to her dragged her down and put her in her seat.
Around her older sister Young-hee, only men were crowded.
It seemed as if the men had given Yeonghee noona a drink.
I wanted to go and drag Yeong-hee out immediately, but I couldn’t bring myself to do so because of her social life, no, her school life.
But strangely, there were quite a few faces I didn’t see during class.
While looking for her empty seat with her eyes, Kim Mi-young was waving her hand from the other side.
Seongjin was happy to see her, so she went over and sat down.
Most of the girls in her class were sitting there, perhaps because the attention of the men was focused on Yeong-hee.
The atmosphere wasn’t very good either.
It was noisy over there with Younghee noona, but it was relatively quiet here.
However, when Seong-jin sat down next to Kim Mi-young, her mood immediately changed.
All the girls greeted Seongjin and started handing her drinks.
Seongjin also cheered her up by pouring drinks for her girls.
Even while we were talking about giving or receiving alcohol, Yeonghee noona kept glancing at me because she was nervous.
On Yeong-hee’s side, her atmosphere was very good.
All the men were treating Young-hee as her princess, and Young-hee noona giggled as if she liked it, drank her drink and slapped the man next to her on the shoulder, making her fist clenched.
But just as Yeong-hee noona and the guy sitting to her left pretended to smile secretly, she put her hand behind Young-hee noona and the like.
She was definitely the first face I saw today.
No way, she thought it wouldn’t work, so Seongjin took a bottle of soju and moved toward it.
“Hello. She is said to be Seongjin Lee of the class of 93.”
She deliberately said that she stood behind her and greeted the people next to her.
“Uh? Uh. Okay. Nice to meet. I am the class of 1990’s Kim Maltong.”
Seong-jin deliberately poured her soju to Yeong-hee’s older sister, who was sitting to her left, and greeted her with soju.
She was also a stinky senior.
Looking around the table, I saw a few of her freshman classmates, but most of them were senior males.
Apparently, when I went to the classroom yesterday, Younghee noona’s beauty seemed to be rumored among the seniors.
That’s why a lot of male seniors who would normally not come to the first year’s opening party came.
Seongjin handed over a bottle of soju to the senior named Maltong Kim, took a drink, and asked her to take care of the younger female students over there as well, so he vacated her seat.
And she poured soju to the men around her, greeted them, and began to drink them.
In the meantime, the guys who were trying to impress Younghee noona kept saying funny things, so the atmosphere was very good.
I was checking in next to Younghee noona for a while, but when Seongjin was alone, the girls on the other side got up one by one with bottles of soju, came over here, and started greeting the male seniors.
Of course, the girls came to talk to Sungjin.
Then, before I knew it, the drinking party started to rise as men and women were evenly mixed.
Taking advantage of the atmosphere, Yeong-hee noona also tried to move while holding a bottle of soju, so Seong-jin secretly dragged her by her clothes and blinded her so that she could not move at all.
She ran from the beginning saying that she was going to check the guys who were aiming for Young-hee’s sister, and she came in less than an hour, but Seong-jin was already flirting with her.
However, it was so much fun to experience this atmosphere again after 20 years.
In her college life before her return, she had no money, so she played on the school lawn eating soju and eating shrimp crackers.
I used to go to this bar sometimes to meet seniors.
Also, when it comes to class opening parties, most of them were busy with their own activities, so there weren’t that many people gathered.
Since most of the department opening parties overlapped with the opening parties of other clubs, it was because I did not go to my favorite place and drink with people from my department.
But today the atmosphere was completely different.
There were enough people to occupy most of this large bar, and above all, there was no need to worry about money.
At first, to protect Yeonghee noona, she talked to the men around her and gave them drinks, but now they have all become friends and they are actually offering a glass and talking happily.
Seongjin talked about working out, how she met Michael Jordan at the Olympics, and how she won the gold medal.
Then, people asked Seong-jin a lot of questions, and Seong-jin answered her wholeheartedly.
As her friendly atmosphere became, Seong-jin became very friendly with her people.
Her seniors, classmates, and boys also fell for Seongjin’s charms, and soon started eating and drinking with her brother and sister.
The girls didn’t just talk to me anymore, they also became close with the seniors and classmates, so everyone was mixing and chatting excitedly.
Moreover, when Seong-jin started leading her drinking game, her mood became chaotic.
“Drink~ Drink~ If it doesn’t come out, it will attack. Follow the goong~”
Now, it was to the point where Younghee noona stopped Seongjin from drinking.
It was 9:00 before I knew it.
People who came from 5:00 drank for 4 hours.
It wasn’t even a fuss, from drunk people with their heads on the table to people who secretly ran away, to people who went to the bathroom and didn’t come out, to people who rushed outside to serve beans and smoked cigarettes.
Still, after Seong-jin came, perhaps because she had refrained from drinking, Yeong-hee, who was fine, said that she should finish it soon.
But Seong-jin, who had been properly plugged in for the first time in a while, suddenly climbed onto her chair and shouted her golden bell.
“Now. The person who finishes the first round here and goes to the second karaoke room. I shoot karaoke.”
She said Yeong-hee’s older sister was crazy to stop and she stopped her by hitting Seong-jin’s leg, but Seong-jin made her feel good and wanted to play more.
At Sungjin’s karaoke bar, everyone cheered for her at her golden bell, shouted her go-go-go, grabbed her bag, and stood up.
Younghee noona, who sighed, got up and went to the counter to pay her bill.
Originally, the general secretary had to do the calculations, but Miyoung Kim was already in the middle of shouting karaoke go-go because she had become a gongra.
There were more than 70 people in total, but people who had already left and people who were drunk and couldn’t stand their feet were left out, leaving about 30 people.
The remaining members rushed into a nearby karaoke bar.
