Everyone rose from their seats at the sound of a grave voice.
“Has Lee Yu-san come?”
“Did you cough, old man?”
“I was waiting for you.”
They stopped their mouths and focused on Yoosan as if they were fighting. Park Kyung-kyung also kept his mouth shut and looked around.
“You are very angry.”
When I met myself, my mouth didn’t come out well. Park Kyung-kyu was perplexed and was looking for something to say, but Yoo-san’s hand was placed on his shoulder.
chin.
Kyung-Woo Park was startled and trembled.
Yu-san frowned.
“I’m just angry. I understand. The situation is very bad right now.”
“Yes. Senior.”
“The current situation makes me angry, doesn’t it?”
Yusan Lee looked over the members of the camp. They looked at each other and nodded their heads slightly. Candidates who committed crimes, including Rep. Ryu Kwang-min, could not bear to make eye contact and looked down.
Yu-san sighed. However, as the representative of the camp, he had to lead them.
‘It’s hard to be the president.’
The dead person rots. And the camp at Mt. Yuyu had been stagnant for quite a long time. At first, even those who entered the political world with shining eyes were often ruined when they learned the taste of money soon after.
‘If you’re going to hammock, you’ll do it well. I want to throw away all those who made mistakes.’
Still, it was the role of a leader to lead and move forward with such people. If I cut out all the people I can’t see, there will be no one left around.
So I had no choice but to be patient.
“But if I get angry, what will change? I’ll have to think about what I’m going to do next. Does anyone have an opinion?”
Everyone looked at them, but no one opened their mouths.
Yusan Lee patted Park Kyung-Woo on the shoulder.
“Yes. Hey. You seem to have a lot to say. Why don’t we talk about it?”
“Wh…what can I say?”
“We’re in a pinch right now. What should we do next?”
It is easy to criticize, but the alternative is difficult. Park Kyung-woo, who has acted with the highest priority on not making things to be criticized, was not immune to such things.
“that is….”
“Yes. Let’s talk.”
“First of all, I think those guilty should make a public apology. I think we should move ahead of others to restore the party’s image.”
“Do you think so?”
“Yes. That’s right. If you apologize sincerely, I think the people will recognize it.”
Yu-san clicked her tongue inwardly.
‘It’s naive. Still, there should be at least one guy like this in the party.’
He was the man in charge of the party’s conscience. There had to be someone who was relatively clean so that the image of the party would not be completely tarnished.
But apologizing was tantamount to admitting a crime. If he was going to run, it was better to keep his pretense to the end.
‘There is no need to draw attention once again with a public apology. It may look like image washing, or it may look like crocodile tears. That’s a minus to the whole party.’
Yu-san hardened her heart.
“Isn’t our life long?”
“yes?”
Everyone’s eyes widened at his sudden remark.
“There are times in life when you fall, but you have to get up and run again.”
Representative Ryu Gwang-min slowly raised his head. Because it seemed like he was telling his own story.
Yu-san paused for a moment, then took a deep breath. He exhaled slowly and blinked his eyes.
“It’s a very difficult decision.”
Party members nodded. The camp was hit hard even before the general elections began. Usually, to avoid an all-out war, the decisive blow was not put in implicitly.
It also avoided a topic that so many people could relate to.
But this time it was different.
Someone took the risk and worked on it, and all parties took a hit. The person who takes care of it first will be able to take care of the image.
Lee Yu-san’s eyes turned to Ryu Gwang-min. Representative Ryu Kwang-min met Yoo-san’s gaze with eyes full of hope.
Yu-san smiled faintly.
“It would be nice to take a break from time to time when you fall down. The people mentioned this time will take care of you next time.”
“Mr.. Senator.”
Ryu Gwang-min jumped up from his seat. I never imagined that I would be abandoned here.
“Why is that?”
“If I don’t become a member of the council this time, I might be arrested.”
“If you run for office, do you have the confidence to win? Mapo Eulgu isn’t that easy.”
“…I’ll go back to Namyangju.”
Ryu Kwang-min decided to make a concession in order to obtain the privilege of non-arrest as a member of the National Assembly. It would be quieter than now in the next general election, so I should have advanced to Seoul at that time.
However, the words that came out of Yu San’s mouth were beyond his expectations.
“At least one red string isn’t much of a problem. I’ll call you back after you’ve rested comfortably for four years.”
Voters did not like migratory birds. The problem was that he went to a campaign in Mapo-eul to appeal in advance.
“Senator!”
“Do you want to get some rest?”
Sparks flew from Yu-san’s eyes.
Ryu Kwang-min had a lot to say, but he couldn’t open his mouth. He might not be able to return to politics if he brought up the topic prematurely.
Of course, there was no guarantee that he would be able to return just because he obeyed.
I had no choice but to hang on to it.
“sorry.”
Yusan Lee smiled benevolently and sat down.
“We are a community of destiny. Even if we take a short break, we will be together someday. Everyone, don’t be in too much of a hurry.”
The pruning for victory has begun.

‘As expected, Congressman Hwaseong A did well not to attack.’
I heard that Yoosan’s nomination lineup has been changed. It was a faster response than expected.
‘Still, he doesn’t apologize.’
Representative Ryu Kwang-min was excluded from the nomination list without a rumor. He didn’t say anything about the people’s criticism, he just kept his mouth shut.
That alone was enough to serve as a meat shield.
‘Are you trying to distract yourself and make a plan?’
He also had a knack for cutting people out.
I took out a piece of chocolate that Ha-yeon gave me as a Valentine’s Day present and put it in my mouth. The sweet taste filled my mouth.
‘Should I ask Congressman Seol Gyeong-taek what he intends to do?’
It would have been difficult if I didn’t move at least Yusan Mountain.
He is my guest
Rep. Seol Gyeong-taek clucked his tongue after seeing Lee Yoo-san’s quick response.
‘I’m going to lose my hands right away. After all, there is a reason why I was able to live in politics for a long time.’
He listened to Kim Jae-goo’s advice and was preparing in advance, but Lee Yu-san was different. With the nomination candidates already decided, when it seemed that the charter would become unfavorable, the candidates were immediately replaced.
Like changing things.
Yusan’s camp was like a huge group of organisms with him as the brain. The difference from humans was that anything other than the brain could be replaced at any time.
‘What scares me most is Yusan’s charisma.’
He had the power to unite people who were only interested in their own interests. They presented what they wanted and did not hesitate to threaten them if necessary.
There was no evidence, but there were also people whose whereabouts were unknown after carrying Mt. Lee and Chuck. The people around him were quiet, but there was no disagreement that it was related to Mt. Yoo.
Disappearance without reason or evidence. It was a fact that only those around him knew that he and Yu-san Lee had a bad relationship.
‘I envy the ability to prevent betrayal while cutting it off.’
The advantage of Seol Gyeong-taek compared to him was that the party was integrated into one. It was because Rep. Ha Jang-wook, the former party leader, was willing to give him the seat of the presidential candidate.
{The future belongs to the young. I believe that Congressman Seol Kyung-taek will do better than me.}
Although he was a member of the National Assembly for the same 4th term, his bowl was different from Lee Yu-san. He was a man who knew how to step aside for the future of the party.
Seol Kyung-taek was also grateful to him.
‘I have to win somehow.’
I wanted to repay the favor of the people who trusted and entrusted me. I haven’t slept well lately because I had so many things to take care of.
‘Has it been over a month since I haven’t slept more than 4 hours?’
It was like there was a fog in my head.

Jiying.
{Rep. Seol Gyeong-taek. This is President Kim. We ask if there is anything we can do to help.}
‘Goddess of luck didn’t abandon me.’
Seol Kyung-taek smiled and grabbed the phone.

Jaegu Kim. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is loved by the goddess of luck, and the man was supporting himself. He was the best partner with great wealth.
‘I don’t know what he’ll ask for later, but he doesn’t seem like the kind of person who would ask for anything unreasonable.’
He was different from the old entrepreneurs who were rotten at the root. He was a person who knew how to see the future and how to invest in the potential of a growing sprout, a start-up.
Seol Kyung-taek lifted his phone.
{We selected the best possible lineup with no cheating candidates. Thanks to this, the percentage of young people has increased, but we plan to target young people by placing them in areas where there are many young people.}
{All right. Have a cup of tea soon.}
It meant to meet at Dowon Dawon.
{Are you okay at 11 tonight?}
{great.}
I was waiting for the time to meet him.
***
I found a golf driving range near my house.
It was an expensive neighborhood, so I had no choice but to choose a screen golf course.
‘I can’t be embarrassed on the field on the weekend.’
At least I decided to leave the basics behind. I had no experience playing golf except for a few visits to entertain my bosses during my company days.
‘If I had had a little more time in my life, I would have hit it a few times.’
My old life was too hard for that.
“welcome.”
The clerk, who was about to greet me, looked at Jaffrey and blurted out his words. It was unavoidable because Jaffrey had a size that would be embarrassing to those who saw him for the first time.
“Hello. It will be reserved under Kim Jae-gu’s name.”
When I said I wanted to learn golf, Benjamin Chung inquired about driving ranges nearby and found a place that was perfect for me.
“Ah! President Kim Jae-gu. Welcome. I’ll take you inside.”
It’s a driving range run by a former golfer, who had time to teach me this week. I was only able to take classes for about half of my full time, but that was enough.
‘If I do it real full time, my joints will go out.’
After passing the room where regular members practice, we were guided to a special room. A tall man was waiting there.
He smiled brightly and held out his hand to me.
“Hello. I’m Pro Golfer Seo Eutteum.”
“I’m Jaegu Kim.”
I only shook hands lightly, but I felt the strength of my grip. People who have played sports for many years can feel the firmness even when they lose their strength.
‘I’m an athlete, so I have a good physique.’
Maybe it was because he went to the field often, but his skin was tanned and he looked healthy. Suddenly, I thought of what it would be like to try tanning.
‘I don’t think it suits you.’
But in case you don’t know, I’ll ask Elisa later.
“I heard that today is the first time. You want me to get up in three days.”
“Yes. I have an appointment on the weekend, so I’m trying to prepare a posture before then.”
“It’s a short time, so it’s going to be hard to learn the perfect posture. But I’ll do my best.”
“i look forward to.”
He came right away with a golf club.
“First, I will teach you how to hold an iron.”
***
When I arrived at Dowon Dawon, I waited for Seol Kyung-taek and patted my waist.
‘I was overdoing it.’
After playing golf until 9pm, my whole body was sore. The coach told me to take it easy, but I couldn’t because I was in a hurry.
‘If I didn’t exercise normally, I would have developed bone disease.’
The saxins were all sore.
Seol Kyung-taek showed up when it was almost time for the appointment. Judging from his usual behavior, he seemed really busy.
“Chief Kim. I’m sorry I’m late.”
“No. I’m really sorry for calling you when you were busy.”
“If I can invite you to camp, it will be convenient to talk with you.”
“hahahaha.”
Not now. And I didn’t want to show my face as much as possible in the future.
‘I feel like I’ve already become a celebrity.’
Thanks to the shipwreck and Della Foster, I put a face stamp on people. However, it will soon be forgotten in the flood of information pouring in.
I was just waiting for that moment.
“What else did you call me for?”
“You said you selected young candidates, but I asked to see you because I was curious about what kind of people you filled.”
It could have been sensitive information. So, I decided to show my trust first.
“This is a list of potential nominations for Lee Yu-san and Han Joong-taek camp.”
Dokgo Gap trusted me and gave me this. Perhaps if he had eyes of trust, he would never have handed me this list.
But he doesn’t have eyes of trust and now that I’ve been given the list, it’s time to share it with my side.
Seol Kyung-taek opened his eyes wide and examined the paper. His expression changed every moment.
