Chapter 320 – Episode 320
“Hey you…”
Choi Do-jin, who was ridiculed next to her and became a sacrifice to show Park Chae-yeon’s excellence, frowns and glares at her. At that moment, I tilted my head.
‘Uh, what is it? It looks like someone.’
Aside from what I saw at the convenience store, I just felt something familiar about Choi Do-jin’s face. Where have I seen that face? There is no way there is a celebrity who looks like that bastard. Then, among the people I know, there is someone who looks like him… Who is it?
On the other hand, you could tell that Park Chae-yeon was not easy just by looking at her snort at Choi Do-jin’s attitude.
“What? Are you dissatisfied? If you have any complaints, don’t be late. Did I tell you earlier? I expected you to be late, so I told you to come at 40 minutes, but you came right on time. Then, if I told you the correct time, you would come at 9:10?”
“Ha, you’re so strict. If one person is late, just go in first and wait. Are you making such a fuss just because you have so much time? This is why I hate kids who give me a straight face because it’s unnecessary during appointment times.”
To be honest, surprisingly, there were many people like Choi Do-jin who did not consider appointment times to be a big deal. I’m not that shameless, but should I say that there are types who are not good at keeping their appointments?
Personally, in my family, we were the type to leave about 10 minutes early for any appointment, and I also had kids like that among my high school friends, so after a few fights, I was the type of person who didn’t really care.
Still, there was a time when I was very unpleasant when I was younger and was strict about keeping appointments.
“Why don’t you say that when you get a job at the company? The day I was supposed to complete the project is today, but I think it will be done tomorrow. “Say it confidently.”
“Wow, this is ridiculous. “Is this the same as the company?”
“It’s not the same, but it would be a lot easier than a company project. “I don’t think a guy who can’t do easy things properly will be able to do something more difficult than this, right?”
“If you really do that…”
“Really what! If you’re going to say something, say it straight to the end. Uh? “Do it right.”
“…”
I clapped reflexively from the side.
I am truly amazed.
Aside from Choi Do-jin’s rotten personality, how much he lived at home eating poorly and not exercising. Each lump of her flesh was generous. The intimidation that comes from her size is not completely absent, but Park Chae-yeon did not back down at all.
And, she knew why.
“Mr. Ha, a bastard like you has to go to the military. Exempted for some trivial reason. “Do my older brothers and younger brothers all have to rot for two years each time?”
Ah…
It seemed like Park Chae-yeon was swarming with brothers both above and below her. They say there are at least two older brothers and younger brothers.
Moreover, seeing them get teary-eyed while talking about the military, it seems like some of the siblings who served in the military had some bad experiences.
‘Yes. The Korean military needs to be careful.’
Maybe not everyone is like that, but if you look at the news consistently coming out about the military every year.
I really had to be careful. Among my friends, it’s quite common to have kids coming out of the military with knee or back injuries.
‘If you overdo it at a young age, it usually comes back to you when you get older.’
At least I went to the rear, and although I suffered a lot of bad habits, I was fortunate that I didn’t come out with any injuries.
Anyway, Park Chae-yeon continued to push Choi Do-jin as if he really didn’t like her.
“I know what you believe and why you act like that. You are not the only one at ULSoft. In fact, if you count the number of people, I have more people. While you’re always staring at your phone and talking nonsense, I’m having a drink with the professor. I even got to know the seniors at UL by having a drink with them.”
It’s definitely because I have a lot of older and younger brothers.
Park Chae-yeon had a different feeling from ordinary women. Should I say that she has the same basic social skills as a man? Well, she had a lot of charisma from the moment she controlled the people around her.
Usually, women who grew up with brothers tend to be this strong.
It’s war at the dinner table, and it’s war in everyday life.
“… Well, let’s go in! Because you keep talking like this. People around you can’t get in.”
“Okay.”
I thought it would just end like this.
Park Chae-yeon turned her back and seemed to think of something, and she said something to Choi Do-jin.
“Oh, that’s right, you. I think I know Hyunwoo here. And that too in a bad way. If you made a mistake, apologize properly, apologize. “I’m not even a child that’s one or two years old.”
Choi Do-jin’s expression suddenly rotted.
The funny thing is, I was watching because I wanted to apologize. In the end, Choi Do-jin just snorted and went into the study café without apologizing to me.
When I saw Choi Do-jin behind me, I burst into laughter. That bastard is just as admirable as that bastard.
He was like that before when he lied about not liking me and spread it on the internet as if it were the truth, but he was a person that I could only admire.
‘I thought that was a legendary animal that can only be found in fantasy.’
What’s creepy is that, surprisingly, people like Choi Do-jin exist in reality. Is there any truth more horrifying than this?
Even the poop left behind by a bastard like that is usually cleaned up by people around him. It’s like there’s one person who poops and another person who cleans it up.
“Ugh, you pathetic bastard. Instead of forcing people who are living well even though they are having a hard time into the military, we should take idiots like that into the military and make people out of them.”
“That is correct.”
“Let me apologize on behalf of that bastard. “First of all, I have to focus on the study café.”
“Oh, no.”
I really didn’t care much.
Because I am sure that I am a better person than Choi Do-jin, and I am sure that I will meet a much better ending than that bastard.
“You don’t have to be like that. Anyway, if you pay attention to a guy like that, you will only lose yourself.”
Lastly, as long as I become more successful than that kid and live a better life. People like Choi Do-jin cause seizures on their own.
In the end, all I had to do was do well. Just like we have done so far.

“Let’s start by introducing ourselves, shall we?”
What’s this guy up to?
As soon as I entered the study café, I had that thought when I saw Choi Do-jin suddenly ask to introduce himself. It’s okay to introduce yourself when you’re meeting for the first time, but it’s that bastard who made the suggestion…
“Are you thinking about something bad again?”
Park Chae-yeon, who was the last to enter the study room after finishing the calculation and closing the door to the study room, asks if I’m not the only one who had this thought. At this, Choi Do-jin threw a fit with an aggrieved expression.
“No, what a bad idea. “I had to do it anyway, introduce myself.”
“Hmm. That’s right. But, I’ll take care of that too. You just stay still, stay still. No, you just don’t have to come next time.”
“Wow, you really talk like shit. “If you live like that, you won’t be able to fit in properly at work, right?”
“Don’t worry, I won’t do this to anyone else. Because I am confident that I can at least do a million times better than you.”
That’s right, that’s right.
I wonder if Choi Do-jin is trying to rub up against our group leader Park Chae-yeon.
“Then, shall we start by introducing ourselves? Hello, my name is Chae-yeon Park, and I am the leader of this study group. “I don’t know about other companies, but I know ULSoft quite well, so I will give you as much help as I can.”
It was a very neat self-introduction.
Everyone thought so, except one.
“No, how do you introduce yourself? Don’t you need to reveal how old you are, where you went to college, and anything else worth putting on your resume? “I also get TOEIC scores!”
“Do I really need to know that? Aren’t the people here just one or two years old like you? “Why?”
“You should know! Then maybe I can help you. I have an uncle at UL Soft, and my older brother also works there. So it’s important to hear about universities, TOEIC scores, and what’s needed on a resume. I will ask and tell you which one is best.”
“…”
Park Chae-yeon had an unwilling face, but she had no grounds to stop her.
She sighs, but since she is in charge, she is the first to open her mouth.
“It’s not something that is forced or enforced. If you don’t want to talk, you don’t have to. Still, if you think she might be of help to you, you can tell me.”
It seemed like everyone would probably do it. Because everyone is desperate to find a job.
In fact, among people who do not work at a company, the only ones who are not desperate for a job are unemployed people who have enough money to play and eat for the rest of their lives. Moreover, even unemployed people with silver spoons find it boring to just hang out all day, so they try to work at their parents’ store, or take on a light job or part-time job.
That’s how important it was for people to do something, even if it wasn’t work.
“First, I graduated from Sangmoon University’s computer engineering department. It may sound like bragging, but it is. My GPA is 4.3, my TOEIC score is 970, and I worked as an intern for almost the entire year of my 4th year in college, so I have about a year of experience and have participated in several projects as a freelancer. Among them are Hanban Group and Saseong Group. That’s it.”
All I could say was that it had crazy specs.
I, who was listening from the side, felt intimidated, and it seemed like Choi Do-jin felt the same way. He glares at Park Chae-yeon with the eyes of a monster, then scoffs and opens his mouth.
“I also graduated from Sangmoon University’s Department of Computer Engineering. “I got mediocre grades.”
I guess my grades are garbage?
“I got 955 points on TOEIC. In terms of experience, I worked at the Nobel Group for about a year. Yes, this is the Nobel Group you all know. Park Chae-yeon said it casually, but the best department at Sangmoon University is the computer engineering department.”
It was a little shocking.
Because that damn bastard’s specs weren’t as bad as I thought. Sangmoon University itself is not necessarily a very prestigious university, but it is a different story when it comes to the computer engineering department at Sangmoon University.
This means that certain popular departments at each school tend to have higher cutoff points than most universities in Seoul. The Department of Computer Engineering at Sangmoon University was exactly like that.
Moreover, the same goes for the Nobel Group development company. After all, it is a large company, so even if it is an inter-experience, it will not be easy if it only lasts for a year. How on earth can a bastard like that?
“I asked to introduce myself, so I could show off. In the end, it was all obtained through personal connections and studying abroad.”
“Network is also a skill. “You also interned at other places, all because of recommendations from professors.”
“…”
This time, Park Chae-yeon kept her mouth shut, as if she had nothing to say.
After that, people introduced themselves one by one. As I was sitting next to them listening to their specifications and experience, I couldn’t help but gape.
They were all people who had interned at a prestigious university or a large company for at least six months.
‘Aren’t you crazy?’
Come to think of it, something like this came up in the news recently.
Competition for jobs has become more intense recently. Until the year before last, it was enough to get into a large company with this kind of portfolio, but these days, it’s difficult to get into even mid-sized companies.
I couldn’t really feel it because I saw it on the news, but when I saw people introducing themselves here, it really hit home.
“Well, now it’s Hyunwoo’s turn for the last time.”
And then, my turn came.
