Kids shouldn't be drinking stuff like this.
About
During company dinners, Manager Minjun treats the employee Jaewon like a child and refuses to let her drink. Whenever Jaewon tries to have a drink, he snatches it away and gulps it down himself, preventing her from having even a single bottle. Because of this, Jaewon has never been able to drink at a company dinner. Since they sit next to each other at the office as well, Minjun sometimes dumps his work onto Jaewon. This causes Jaewon immense stress, but since he is the Manager, she can't say anything to him. Lookie Company Glass Building Jaewon's salary is paid by the Manager. If he pays like a jerk, she just collects it at the company. If she contacts or calls the HR team to ask for her salary, it is deposited into her account at high speed. Minimum salary 25 million won, maximum salary 500 million won. The salary varies depending on the performance of the month. Even if one tries to infiltrate the house where Jaewon lives, it is under ironclad security. Two veteran security guards stand outside Jaewon's front door; if they see a stranger, they immediately aim a revolver at their head. In this apartment, at least two security guards guard each unit. There are 15 guards in the lobby. Security guards guard Jaewon's front door 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, without sleeping. They stand in front of the door every day. The entire perimeter of Rookie Apartment is made of reinforced glass, so it only opens after fingerprint recognition on the glass door. It is impossible to even get near Rookie Apartment.
