Life, Once Again!

* * * *

I should quit smoking. I stuck a cigarette between my nose and my upper lip and pondered for a few seconds, then asked. I got up from my seat with an empty pack of cigarettes. It was a time of sorrow when smoking in the building had to be noticed.

The phone in the jacket pocket vibrates in the car about to come out and light a fire and take a sip. Seeing the end of the cigarette burning red, he gave up his cigarette, muttering, "Don't smoke."

“Hello?"

- Hey, Mi-yeon.

“Oh, Journalist Choi. Busy reporter Choi Mi-yeon called again. Ah! I have urgent business to attend to, so I think I should hang up... ”

- I did some digging behind Lee, but something interesting came up.

Dongwook groaned. This silent successor was desperately willing to close his ears and open his mouth. It's fun, by the way. A bitter smile flows out. If that's what I think is interesting, then this successor is really wasting away.

“Are you still holding on to that? ”

- Am I the only one holding on? I'm sure you've got it under control, too.

“I was wrong to hear you then. Journalism is not journalism. Internet reporter. ”

I rubbed my heel against the cigarette falling on the ground.

“Yes, where are you now? ”

* * *

“Sunbae.”

Dongwook walked in front of Choi Mi-yeon with his hands raised.

“Buy me some food. ”

“Are you talking about Bob as soon as you get here? ”

“Let's talk about Bob, shall we? ”

“This is a coffee shop. ”

“Let's have some bread, then. ”

“Do I have to open the back wallet like that? Shouldn't you be getting a salary bump from JA? ”

“You're getting your ass kicked by Sharon. Journalists say you're earning quite a bit these days. ”

“You know, interviewee journalists. I'm already out of the snow. ”

“So who told you to carry around someone else's teeth? Let's just gossip. There's a lot of that. Who likes who, who's in a relationship with who. If you dig through Idol, it could be an issue mall. How about we end the journalist of justice today? ”

“I'm not closing. And I'm not interested in that. What are you gonna drink? ”

“Sweet. ”

Miyeon ordered and came back. As soon as I sat down, I took some notebooks out of my backpack and put them on the table.

“What is all this? ”

“Things about Madame. ”

Madame, I opened the notebook in front of Dongwook. Inside is a collection of articles from the newspaper. Advertising, production announcements, casting stories, etc. It was related to the entertainment industry.

“What is this? ”

“Madam, I've been tracking the changes that have happened to each actor since Im Yun let go of the bridge. ”

“What if it's a leg? ”

Dongwook was circled with his left hand and his right index finger was placed in it. He shakes his head once, as if it weren't, and slaps the top of his left hand with his right palm.

“That or that. But can you find a connection? It doesn't make sense to have proof that these guys were having sex before they got this ad or contract. ”

“There's a testimony from that actress I told you about. ”

"You killed yourself. Did you record something?"

"No, that's not it."

“Well, let's just say it's true. I can only prove one case with that. Why are you telling me these people were having sex? ”

“I got in touch with the person who used to work with Imyun. This is the director. He's a broker who connects VIPs with celebrities. ”

Dongwook said, smiling lightly.

“How did you come to know the director? ”

“Through an acquaintance of the actress. He quit his job, and he's in a lot of pain, and he wants to make his life easier by telling him everything he did wrong. ”

“That fits perfectly. ”

Dongwook covered the notebook.

“Watch this. The actress is the reason you got into this. You said you killed yourself, right?”

“Yes.”

“Accomplice with my son. But in the article, it wasn't suicide. That's what it says in the will. It's hard to prove a sexual surrender case with this woman. ”

“That's why you did the hydrogen door. ”

“That's why it's a problem. It was discovered by a journalist from one of the women's magazines who doesn't even have the right to investigate. It's been a while. ”

Vibration bells informed me that coffee was about to come out. Miyeon sighed and brought me coffee. Dongwook uses it after a sip. "

“Let's put aside the dead actress for a moment and talk now. An actress at MH Entertainer caused a sexual assault. Immediately thereafter, The Fives, who were in the same company, blew up an unfair contract. After leaving the correlation, the actress's sexual payment charges were forgotten so cleanly that she didn't even know it was happening now. After that, The Five split up, and three of them went into the soul of a new celebrity promoter. This is what's happening right now, right? ”

“Yes, it is. ”

“One of the four claims here is that The Five Men's Idols made sexual payments, and there is Imyun at the center of it. Is this it?"

“That's what I said before. ”

"There is testimony of an actress from an MH agency on grounds to support this, but she has already seen the agreement and she does not want this to get bigger. This one, too, right? “

“Hey, what do you want to say? ”

Dongwook said, setting up his index finger.

“There's only one person who can testify to the facts you're assuming. Likewise, he met through an acquaintance of the actress who committed suicide. There is no evidence in the past except what the dean said. ”

“No, of course, it's hard to touch The Five and Imyun case because there's no hard evidence yet, but if you take the evidence from the broker and put it in the press, you can water the case workers. ”

Miyeon said in a strong tone. Dongwook listened to that and put a lot of syrup in the coffee.

“It can be used to pour sugar. Anyway, you're not thinking this. There is a contact between the broker who was the leader of the previous incident and Lee Mi-yoon, so if you dig up past events, the current events can also be tied with a noose. ”

“That's right.”

“Mi-yeon.”

“Why?”

“It's too urgent. ”

“In a hurry?”

“You quit the newspaper, you go into the fashion magazine, you rust your gut, or you can't tell if you want to beat the crap out of everyone with your hands. ”

Dongwook unconsciously put his hand in his jacket pocket and realized it was only a lighter that caught him and frowned.

“How many broadcasters were on the list of actors from MH back then? What do you think they did first? ”

“You fixed it.”

“Even the mid-legged Lee Mi-yoon would've made sure he didn't catch fire. If all the assumptions you've built are true, then they're also tied together. I don't know if it's the main cause of the Hong Kong disaster or someone else at the company, but I'm pretty sure they brought Idol, the other promoter who broke up. By the way, no one holds a funky, explosive bomb in their arms. Only after I know it won't explode, and I'm sure it will. ”

After I saw Miyeon nodding her head, I took out her notebook from Dongwook's arms.

“At that time, I said in the wagon. Even knowing that the king's ear is a donkey's ear doesn't make a difference. ”

I opened the notebook and showed him a phone number. Mi-yeon who saw the number opened her eyes wide.

“How did you get this number? ”

“I wasn't just playing around, either. I looked this way after 10 billion buyers. Because of some junior who's like a broken-down calf. ”

Dongwook covered his notebook and said, "Call this director." Miyeon urgently picks up her phone and dials the number. She takes her cell phone to her ear and waits with a serious face, but after a moment she gives a blank look.

“What's going on? Why is he in custody? ”

“The world's most righteous journalist is not alone. A reporter from the station who had investigated his own time, like you, persuaded and reported the broker. The broker was sentenced to a clean sentence without denying any of the charges. ”

“I didn't know. Just a couple of weeks ago, he told me he was talking to me. ”

“It's not just you. ”

“So it's settled now? ”

Mi-yeon said with a smile.

“Good packaging. A very clean tail cut. ”

“Yes?”

“The broker left behind no senior official by that name, and no celebrity. It also did not come up with the name of the woman you were thinking of, Im Yun. It was just a connection between the brothel and the general public. ”

“No way. He has something to do with me.... ”

“Consider it a good thing you didn't notify the police. I left the station quietly, a reporter preparing to trust the broker and report to the media. Yesterday.”

“Yes?”

“In a few days, these articles will be very small. I can't believe you filed a complaint with a disgruntled reporter who's blind to resonance. It'll be brief, but the people who saw it will think, As expected, it wasn't that big of a deal. That's when the investigation ended. No, most of them don't. ”

“I'll go see the journalist. ”

“I'm afraid that's hard, too. ”

“Why?”

“He went to Hawaii. ”

“Yes?”

“Don't you know Hawaii, Hawaii? ”

“You said you were the one who wrote the accusation. ”

“I did.”

“Then why Hawaii? ”

“A man can't keep being righteous. Rats bite when they're stuck in a corner. A person would be mistaken. First, he threatened to sue for defamation and innocence. When you try to reach the press, with or without all the data that you've been researching so far that you can't be beaten by a shaky journalist, you make up your mind. With a lot of money. That's what he's saying. Well fought. Excellent. But what are you going to do living like that? Who knows? Take this money and relax and come in. Well, you can promise to get your job back. Maybe he finally said," I wish you were that righteous. You did everything you could. ""

“Then the past case... ”

“A few righteous journalists would have ended it perfectly. I can't say anymore. There's still an MH actress handbill left, but there won't be any way to dig it up. ”

“Let's meet the actress again and fight together.... ”

“You said you didn't want to be involved. You're willing to take money for your tired sense of justice and shove it up someone's ass? You'll probably have a better chance of getting a lawyer before that. Don't talk about the settlement. ”

Dongwook pushed the coffee cup to one side.

“So I said. I don't think you should do it. I sold some burnt supplies to a journalist I'd forgotten a long time ago, but I ended up like this. ”

Mi-yeon, who bit her lower lip tightly, put a notebook out of her bag.

“I don't want it to end this way. ”

“I knew it. ”

"There's got to be a way. There are whistleblowers everywhere. He could be waiting for us to come find him."

"Maybe so."

"Sunbae."

"Why?"

"I've done a lot of research saying I don't want to do it."

"If it works out, we'll have a chance to make a name for the big scandal."

"Don't lie to me."

"What do you know about me? I was happy just looking at the salary accumulated during the time of the TV station reporter. The press changed their minds a long time ago."

"That's all I'm saying, I know. Let's go, man."

"Where?"

"You know better than I do. Tell me where to dig."

"I'd love to, but I've got work to do. I'm on the contract again."

"Work?"

"I have to write about the movie, writing. We've got interviews, and we've got a film coming out of JA that we're so proud of, we've got work to do."

"So where are you going?"

"The cinema. The premiere was so chaotic, I didn't go. I want to see it quietly and write it myself."

"Then come with me."

"What's wrong with you?"

"I'm a journalist, too. Let me show you, like, an article on that movie."

"Woman's fashion magazine is not a good movie."

"What kind of reward?"

Dongwook put his notebook in his pocket.

"What kind of sick old man takes a picture of his kid's head with a ledger."
