“Director General Ki Sang Beom proposed investing in a company called Myeong Tech. He claimed that although it was small at the time, it possessed technology that would greatly benefit Shinhwa Electronics in the future. Director Seon Jae Ho investigated that technology, and subsequently recommended investing in Myeong Tech. That was the moment Ki Sang Yong’s greed took hold.”

It was a predictable development. Ga Eul had to suppress the urge to bolt from her seat. She didn’t want to hear it—what would follow was an account of how they deceived and betrayed her father.

At the same time, Ahn Chang Beom’s slow delivery frustrated her. She longed to hear quickly exactly how they had deceived her father.

“Ki Sang Yong suggested to Shin Jae Ho that they make Myeong Tech’s technology appear as Shinhwa’s own. Since this wasn’t their first time, he likely didn’t consider it particularly difficult. The first step involved fabricating problems with Myeong Tech’s technology.”

“So he probably thought it was a win-win strategy—by doing so, he could also get rid of your father, who had proposed investing in Myeong Tech.”

When Dae Woon made this remark—unclear whether it was a question or a conclusion—Ahn Chang Beom nodded.

“That’s correct. And indeed, that’s exactly how things turned out.”

“Didn’t Director Seon Jae Ho resist? Did he silently comply with Director Ki Sang Yong’s orders?”

Ga Eul wanted to know. Had a man she considered family really betrayed her father without a shred of conscience? She wanted to understand this not just for herself, but also for Woo Jin.

“Seon Jae Ho had no choice. Ki Sang Yong held his leash tightly. To hide his own incompetence, Ki Sang Yong forced his subordinates to commit illegal acts—starting with minor infractions, but gradually pulling them deeper into illegality until they found themselves hopelessly mired.”

“By any chance, was Director Seon Jae Ho the Shinhwa Electronics contact you mentioned earlier?”

Ga Eul asked what she’d already suspected—and as expected, the answer confirmed it.

“Yes. I tutored Seon Jae Ho for quite some time. We lost touch after I enlisted, but years later, we happened to meet again—he was working at Shinhwa Electronics by then. He was a good person, kind-hearted since childhood. How tragic, then, that he ended up tangled with someone like Ki Sang Yong…”

Seon Woo Jin’s father—once deemed a good man—had driven her own father to death. What bitter irony.

“Did Ki Sang Yong murder President Han?”
