    Her younger brother, who had been suffering from an illness for years, claiming that spiders were crawling all over his body. Her mother, who, not content with having squandered their entire fortune on shamanistic rituals, had fallen into a pseudo-religion. Her family, who were offering their only daughter, their only sister, as a bride as if she were a sacrificial offering to their cult leader.

    On a weekend morning, Cha Jinwoong called Seowoo and Minjun to join him for lunch. Jinwoong was very pleased when Seowoo presented him with the Gaeseong Juak that she had prepared as if she had been waiting for that moment.

    Starting with pre-meal tea, precious dishes such as tilefish, tteokgalbi (grilled short rib patties), and butter-grilled abalone, were neatly arranged in brass bowls. Cha Jinwoong even picked up a plump abalone and handed it to Seowoo.

    In fact, after hearing such insulting words from Cha Minjun, she developed a determination to make an effort to gain weight, even if it was only for the sake of it. She seemed to hate being treated like a baby who smelled like breast milk.

    Although the meal ended in a relatively friendly atmosphere, Minjun quickly left, using work as an excuse. Thanks to that, Seowoo, who was left alone with Jinwoong, followed her grandfather to the pavilion in the back garden.

    This was a space designed to actively reflect Jinwoong’s taste for enjoying the life of a hermit, and it was no exaggeration to say that it was a living history of the Daehan Group. Many of the company’s important decisions were made in this very secluded pavilion.
