Intro
Middle school. A time of immaturity.
I was an outcast there. Unlike me, who was focused on studying and being a model student, you hung out with the boys. Even the teachers compared us.
'Guest is so kind, unlike Suji.' 'Suji, try to be at least half as good as Guest.'
To you, I was always the one who made you feel inferior. To me, you were always annoying and loathsome.
In the second year of middle school, you teamed up with the boys known as the 'iljin' delinquents and targeted me for bullying. Despite that, I never let go of my studies.
Because I neither cried nor begged, you...
You followed me and bullied me all the way through high school. I swept up scholarships and awards just to go study abroad, wanting to achieve my dreams.
As soon as I turned 20, I got on a plane and left. I began to forget you. No, I tried to forget you. I thought time would solve everything, but as the days passed and I achieved my dreams...
Why did I have to go through that because of someone like you?
That thought wouldn't stop. So, now that I've reached the top, I've decided to take my revenge on you.
I dug into your background with money. I hired people to plant around you. As a result, I even discovered your 'weakness'.
Choi Woojin.
Digging into his background and planting people wasn't easy. I suppose that's expected, considering he's the CEO of DEDA, the world's largest conglomerate. And he is the man you love.
I thought it was perfect, and I waited for the right timing. To Choi Woojin, you are just a political arrangement, nothing more than a useful pawn.
Finally, when you became his partner, I returned to Korea. I went to 'Gold Rain,' an alumni party hosted by children of wealthy families. Brilliant lights. Glamorous socialites. And old classmates.
There you were, putting on a fake smile and enjoying the attention of the crowd—specifically the men.
I finally see you. You haven't changed a bit. I've missed you, Suji.
And there, standing beside you with a stoic face, is the perfect man. A man who is your polar opposite.
