At that moment, chance led her to the hospital lobby.
Having spent the morning leisurely at the swimming pool, she belatedly received a call from PD Park and rushed to the hospital.
Roughly, the accident happened like this:
Director Song, after taking a few years of vacation, went on a family trip to Gangwon Province. Shortly after unpacking and spending barely a day, he received an urgent call from the broadcasting station.
Leaving his wife and daughters behind, he hurried alone in the early morning, only to meet with an accident.
Yeon entered the lobby and headed toward the VIP ward where the director was hospitalized.
While monitoring the news in the morning, she had seen the accident firsthand, but never in her dreams did she think it would involve Director Song.
Upon receiving PD Park’s urgent call about the significant accident, she felt as if the heavens were crumbling.
Thinking he was severely injured, she felt a chill in her chest. However, the moment she saw Director Song warmly smiling inside the hospital room, she was left dumbfounded.
“Director, are you…?”
“Oh, Yoon Woo-yeon, you came?”
“What on earth happened? Are you okay?”
“Sit. You must have been surprised, huh? Park PD insists on making a big deal out of nothing just because I told him not to call me for trivial matters!”
PD Park, who had rushed to the hospital first upon hearing about Director Song’s accident, was quietly pouring coffee.
Yeon looked in that direction, then quickly turned her gaze back to check Director Song’s condition.
“Are you really okay?”
“More or less.”
“The scale of the accident was quite significant.”
“Well, the accident was substantial. You saw it on the news, right? Due to a drunk driver crashing into me at full speed from behind, the car was crushed like a tin can. But look at me. The doctor says I’ve used up all my luck for the year.”
“Phew. Do you know how shocked I was?”
Director Song’s absence is a big deal for the broadcasting station. There’s no one else who can take the lead and support PD Park and Yeon in their work as much as Director Song.
PD Park, who had rushed there in disbelief, handed the just-poured coffee to Yeon with a somewhat awkward expression.
“Still, just in case, I told him to stay in the hospital for three more days.”
Yeon nodded.
“Yes, you did well.”
“I need to hurry back to the station. Anchor Yoon should be here, right?”
“Yes. I’ll be here. Please go inside.”
“Okay. Director, I’ll go in first. Please send Anchor Yoon as soon as the family arrives.”
Director Song waved his hand as if urging her to leave.
“I understand. Go quickly! I called Reporter Yeom a while ago, but he said he absolutely wouldn’t come here, no matter what.”
“That’s Reporter Yeom for you.”
“In any case, no one listens to Director’s words. Everyone does as they please.”
Director Song looked frustrated.
He had said it was unnecessary for anyone to be there even if the family arrived soon. However, his words fell on deaf ears, causing him considerable frustration while he was mentally absent during the breaking news that had already been announced once.
Roughly summarizing the situation and rushing to the hospital, he swept his hair back and exchanged places with Yeon.
PD Park left the hospital room, and Yeon took off her jacket. Despite Director Song’s silent gaze urging her to leave, she just drank her coffee without a word.
“Not busy?”
Yeon sat in the visitor’s chair, took out the newspaper she had been reading at home, and habitually began to scan it with her eyes.
Under Director Song’s gaze, she blinked a few times.
“I understand. I’ll get up soon. Is the examination all done?”
“We’ve done most of it.”
“Your wife must have been very surprised.”
“Well, something like that. My wife is always jumpy. Hey, over there, those documents.”
Yeon glanced at him.
Director Song trying to work even while hospitalized was irritating, but from the moment she confirmed that he was safe, she couldn’t help but smile inside as she took out the newspaper herself.
“By the way, recently PD Park mentioned that you have something interesting going on, Director?”
Setting aside the joke, he reached for the documents he was looking for. Familiar words caught Yeon’s eye.
Jang Kyung-ga’s secret. Chairman Jo Se-hoon, wife Kim Ha-yoon, Jo In-young, Aunt Jang.
Realizing that Director Song, who noticed her staring at the documents for a long time, shrugged his shoulders in a seemingly meaningless way.
“News is stuck regarding the investigation into Jeongeum Construction, right? Reporter Yeom mentioned that.”
“…Yes.”
“He’s been looking into it separately since a few years ago. I warned him not to touch it while I was in danger. But with the Jeongeum incident, I’ve been thinking about various things again. I’m going to review it one more time. As you can see, the Minister who helped Jeongeum this time has a deep connection with Jang Kyung.”
The name Jang Kyung Group sent shivers down Yeon’s spine.
It felt like every fiber of her being stood on end, and even her scalp prickled fiercely.
“Is that so?”
