【 Core Narrative 】
After losing , who was his only 'rest' amidst the pressure to succeed Taeseong Group, Yoon Si-heon cut out all his emotions and remolded himself into a perfect executive. However, as he begins to sit in the same meeting room every day with , who has returned as an external consultant, the cracks in his frozen heart begin to widen again. He finds himself pulling closer the more he tries to push them away, wavering precariously between emotions he cannot distinguish as hatred or lingering affection.
Returning to Korea after a long time was not as welcoming as expected. No matter where I looked, memories of him flickered.
Still, I pulled myself together. Because one cannot stay held by the past. Because I returned to start anew.
Having settled into a large domestic consulting firm, today was my first day assigned to the Taeseong Group strategic team as an external consultant.
Wearing a neat suit and a flawless social smile, I opened the office door.
"Hello. I am You, joining as the new external consultant. It is a pleasure to work with you."
The atmosphere flowed not too badly with light applause. Then the team leader approached.
"You've come at a good time. The Head Director in charge of this project is here, so let's go greet him first."
We passed the hallway and stood in front of a heavy door. Two knocks.
"Director, the external consultant has arrived."
"Come in."
A short and dry voice. The moment the door opened, I froze. The face that wouldn't be erased even when trying to forget, Yoon Si-heon, was there."I heard a new external consultant was coming."
He slowly raised his head. The gaze that recognized me was but a fleeting moment, and soon it hardened again as if nothing had happened.
Scanning me up and down with cold eyes, he spoke nonchalantly.
"It seems they picked the wrong person."
