Light leaked through the gap in the curtain and flickered over Joo Hawon’s closed eyes. It did not feel like he had slept on a proper pillow, the sensation against his pressed head was hard. For a brief moment, he felt dazed, as though he had just woken up in Jahan’s old house. Only after seeing the man asleep right in front of him did he realize it had been a dream. Kwon Taeha, who had given him an arm pillow, breathed evenly in his sleep. Even with the light pouring in, he slept so soundly. He…-

“Why’d you say that.” Kwon Taeha muttered, looking toward the master bedroom. “Yeah… guess I’m a bit drunk.” Blaming Kwon Jaehee for dragging up what they were trying to bury, only for him to look full of regret. “I even killed time so I’d come in late. At least that helped, right?” “I’d still do what I had to even if you came in early.” Kwon Taeha flipped open his Zippo lighter and lit a cigarette. As he drew in deeply, the red ember crackled and burned down the…-

The place I lived in Macau was also called a villa, but the interior facilities and the people living there were as different as heaven and earth. Of course, no matter how spacious it was, the areas Joo Hawon used were essentially just the master room and the living room. The maids employed by the villa came once a day to clean, and Joo Hawon would either be sleeping or reading during that time. If it weren't for Kwon Taeha telling him not to do any work until his health improved, he would have been so…-

A few months ago, Joo Hawon had moved into a penthouse villa overlooking the Han River. At the entrance, not only were private security guards stationed, but also white bodyguards employed by STA. The top floor penthouse could only be accessed by a private elevator through fingerprint recognition. There was a fitness room inside the house, but to receive personal training, he had to go down to the first-floor fitness center. The doctor had warned that if he didn’t exercise consistently, his lung…-

Side Story. Back Straight Flush Joo Hawon had developed a habit he’d never had before. It was almost like a fit of hysteria, the way he would tap at his chest—thump, thump—without thinking. While walking toward the mart, Joo Hawon once again stopped in his tracks and tapped his chest. He had always walked fast, so slowing his pace felt unnatural. After all, it wasn’t easy to change a habit built over nearly thirty years of life. Quitting smoking was even harder than adjusting his pace. He…-

Joker Track 1 As a BM executive, he was cleared of charges regarding illegal U.S. housing purchases. Due to insufficient evidence of collusion with the U.S. Democratic Party, he was cleared. As no evidence of illegal acts was found in the bidding process, he was cleared. Through more than a week of investigation by the German Federal Court, all the accusations against Kwon Taeha were dismissed. Once the investigation ended, Kwon Taeha immediately left Germany for Macau, and just as he…-

In Korea, dozens of army, navy, and air force generals—along with the Minister of Patriots and Veterans Affairs, the Prime Minister, and more—were forced to step down. On xx month xx day at around 11 p.m., a large Korean portal server was paralyzed by hacktivists, and the corruption that had festered for years between corporations and the government was laid bare. Domestic servers went down in just ten minutes, but through foreign storage servers, anyone around the world could download WikiLeaks.…-

The door to the room opened. Jade Miller, wiping his glasses with a handkerchief, spoke awkwardly. “The shareholders’ meeting is being held tomorrow.” “……” “The timing, right when unfavorable evidence has been found….” “Who could even get into the CEO’s room? It was practically always me there, or the bodyguards on watch.” “I’m not saying I suspect you, Mr. Joo Hawon, but… have you ever met with the vice president separately?” I said no, but I knew Jade…-

With growing unease, I watched the special program about STA, Tex, and the shipbuilding company—only to see my own face revealed. It was a photo from last year’s Füssen charity event. I was stunned. I had turned on the program to hear how the situation was unfolding, but instead they were spewing pointless gossip. Clearly, the producers were starved for ratings—dogs chasing after sensationalism. I turned off the TV and collapsed onto the sofa. Security around the place was still…-

He remained silent as we walked down the long corridor, through the casino, and out of the ship’s interior toward the bow. The Max plowed through the sea, carrying damp, cool wind across the deck. A few people lingered around the outdoor pool, scattered thinly in the late afternoon. Only when we reached the ship’s farthest edge did we stop. To the right, a passage led to an elevator that went straight to the helipad. Before heading that way, he looked down at me from the end of the deck. “You told…-
