66. what to say thank you

“Ugh. right here right now??”

The embarrassed Son Jun-ik looked at Kyu-ha in surprise. However, Kyu-ha picked up the smartphone as if nothing was wrong.

“Yes sir. How are you? It’s not different…”

He explained to Park Chang-soo the concept of ‘Children and Children’s Joy’ planned by PD Son Jun-ik in a simple and clear manner.

“Are you going with me too? Perhaps I will serve as a guide. Yes Yes. Okay. The eel restaurant I went to at that time was good, and the Baeksuk restaurant was also delicious. Then let’s meet at the eel restaurant. Yes, I will contact you again, sir.”

Son Jun-ik, who was staring at Gyu-ha’s mouth, asked in a troubled voice.

“What, what did you say, teacher?”

“You want to have fun? First of all, he said he would like to meet and hear more about the program. Are you okay this Friday?”

“of course. Of course it’s fine! Then we’ll see you then.”

“I will leave the time and place in text.”

Son Jun-ik held Kyu-ha’s hands warmly and expressed his gratitude.

“thank you! I honestly had a hard time not being able to recruit senior actors, but now that I have at least some possibility, I can breathe.”

“I’m glad if I was of any help.”

So, Jun-Ik Son left with unexpected good news, and only Han Jeong-hee and Kyu-ha remained in the conference room.

“Are you okay? No matter how much it is, it won’t be easy to travel with the elderly… Besides, Gyuha hasn’t even traveled abroad.”

At Han Jeong-hee’s words, Kyu-ha smiled and replied.

“Don’t worry, chief. I can do well. Keeping the promise of the best, going on an overseas trip, and filming a variety show, it’s literally killing three birds with one stone.”

“If you say it’s Gyuha, you’re someone who will do anything, so don’t worry. Once the travel destination is decided, we will review from various angles what kind of support is possible at the company level.”

“Thank you as always, chief.”

Now, the depth of trust has grown so much that the sincerity can be conveyed just by looking into each other’s eyes.

East Seoul freshwater eel.

It is called one of the top 3 eel restaurants in Seoul and has been famous since coming up from Pungcheon 50 years ago. He had so many regulars, and Park Chang-soo was one of them. It was already 40 years ago that I couldn’t forget the taste of the eel in this house that a well-known senior bought for me when I was hungry and unknown, and promised that I would come often if I succeeded.

“Hi Sir. You are here early.”

“Five. Kyuha-kun. Come on.”

Son Jun-ik, who came in with Kyu-ha, greeted Park Chang-soo.

“Nice to meet you. teacher. I’ve met you from a distance before when I was an assistant director, but I’ll greet you formally. My name is Joon-Ik Son, an entertainment producer from UK E&M.”

“Chuck. I’ve heard about Son PD’s reputation. nice to meet you. My name is Park Chang-soo. Come on, sit down.”

As soon as we sat down, a middle-aged man who seemed to be the boss greeted President Park Chang-soo.

“Hi Sir. ha ha ha. Come often. As usual, my mother asked how I was doing.”

“Who is this? Aren’t you the boss? Is your mother still correcting herself?”

“Oh sure. Even though you are over 90 years old, you still do the field work yourself. Even if I try to stop it, it won’t help.”

“Chuck. I want you to be like an old lady. It makes me happy that you corrected me too. That’s why, please prepare something for today with what you always ate.”

“You mean gallbladder soju? I knew that, so I took out the most sincere guy in advance.”

Afterwards, CEO Ahn Seong-gyu brought a bottle of soju and poured one glass at a time, but it was light green soju, not the usual transparent soju color.

“This is the natural freshwater eel gallbladder that is said to be difficult to drink. That’s a large gallbladder weighing more than 2 kg. When I was young, I drank this and went to the filming site and filmed all night. chuckle Have a drink.”

“Oh, this precious thing. I will drink well. teacher.”

gulp.

“It’s definitely good.”

Freshwater freshwater eel that looked appetizing soon came up and was grilled deliciously with special sauce. After hurriedly eating grilled eel with gallbladder, the three started talking about work in earnest, probably feeling full soon.

“Ugh. It was so delicious that I just focused on eating it. If I say it again, why can’t the elderly go on a backpacking trip, which is considered to be the exclusive property of young people? departed from And through this, creating an opportunity to look back on what is precious in life is also the purpose of ‘Children’s Joy’.”

“The planning intention is really good. Backpacking… 50 years ago, there was a time when I wandered around the country with only one backpack on my back.”

Park Chang-soo’s eyes were wet with reminiscence as if he had returned to that time.

“Come to think of it, I was looking too far ahead and ran. Knowing better than anyone that sometimes you need to take a break… Then what am I supposed to do?”

When the atmosphere went well, Son Jun-ik said with a smile.

“Teachers have nothing to do. Just go on a trip and tell us what you saw and felt without adding or subtracting. That’s enough. The rest is up to us.”

“Then, are you going with Kyuha-kun too?”

“of course. In some ways, it is also the most important role. Our goal is to enjoy a trip together with the young and the elderly, as the word ‘enjoyment of the young and old’ while serving as a guide and companion for the teachers.”

“Chuck. If it’s with Kyuha-kun, I’ll go even more. Lately, I’ve never had as much fun as spending time with Kyuha. I wish you well when you go on a trip. Kyuha-kun.”

At Park Chang-soo’s words, Kyu-ha nodded.

“Sure, sir. It’s my first overseas trip, but I think it will be a beneficial and fun time thinking that I’m going with a teacher.”

In fact, when Park Chang-soo agreed to appear on the program, Son Jun-ik’s mouth opened with joy.

“thank you sir! I will take good care of it so that there are no other inconveniences. Phew… I feel like I’ve crossed a big mountain. Thanks to the teacher, I think I will be able to convince others once again.”

“Is there anything to be grateful for? what I choose By the way, who else are you thinking of recruiting?”

“Actor Lee Dae-ho and actor Park Hong-sik, I am thinking of these two.”

“Dae-ho, Hong-shik? chuckle This is going to be a fun trip. Wait a minute, let’s see…”

Park Chang-soo took out his folder phone and called somewhere.

“hey. shout. How are you? chuckle Of course this brother is doing well. It’s not different, let’s go on an overseas trip together. Aren’t you going to be the enemy of the fort too? Have you heard of PD Son Jun-ik? you haven’t heard? Yes, this man. Don’t you even watch TV? Anyway, he’s a famous entertainment PD, and he said he’s preparing a program where elderly people go on a trip together. I decided to go Since I’m going, I want to go with you. I am sure it will be a really fun trip.”

After that, I talked to Lee Dae-ho and then hung up the phone. Son Jun-ik looked only at Park Chang-soo with a sad expression.

“You say you’re going. I thought it would be better if I got into a fight with my wife and went out for a while. Anyway, they say they will talk to the company tomorrow.”

Under the table, Son Jun-ik’s fists were clenched.

‘Yes!’

“Thank you teacher. thank you.”

“Thank you, what are you thankful for? I do it because I like to go with people I am comfortable with. Let’s see where you are. I should call Hongshik too.”

In the meantime, Park Hong-sik was also easily accepted on the spot to the extent that PD Son Jun-ik’s troubles were colorless.

Son Jun-ik was sitting with a face that was lost, but he couldn’t hide the smile on his lips.

“How should I thank you…”

“There is no need for that. All of them are like comrades who have endured on this floor for more than 40 years, and they have great personalities, so I just wanted to go with them. They probably have the same thoughts as me. I’ve come this far with acting as my life’s work, but I’m sure you’ll feel that your body is getting old. Will I still have the same passion as before? Is it time to leave this place? I mean the things you do Seeing that everyone agreed at once, they must have felt the same way.”

Son Jun-ik’s heart became heavy at Park Chang-soo’s words, which made him feel dizzy.

“Exactly. If each teacher finds some answer or meaning through this trip, then this program is the same as a success. Anyway, I will do my best to avoid any problems. Trust me.”

With Park Chang-soo’s support, the launch of the program accelerated. Son Jun-ik went into the office as it was and rechecked the detailed planning and budget. In addition, the writers were instructed to select travel destinations and find out the best travel routes for content.

Producer Son Jun-ik’s heart started pounding just like when he made his first debut as a rookie PD.

After overwhelmingly defeating Uranus, Meogines won 3 more in a row, achieving a total of 12 wins in a row. At this point, there were fewer and fewer opponents who could deal with Meogines anymore, and in the end, the only opponent left was Homeus, the bare-handed slayer who had reigned as the champion of Thessaloniki for 5 years.

And finally today, the pankration match between Homeus and Megynes was concluded. In Thessaloniki, whenever two or more people gathered, whether it was a restaurant or a shop, a story blossomed with a confrontation between the two.

“Hey Agenor! Will Homeus be able to keep his title again?”

“Yeki! Man, Homeus isn’t easy this time either. Haven’t you ever seen a Meogines match? He said he only played an overwhelming game. Even Homeus should be nervous.”

“huh. Even so, isn’t Meogines just a grown-up? Homeus is said to have played countless pankration matches. The experience is different.”

“You look like this stuffy person! So, in a confrontation between Meogines, who has a green body, and Homeus, who is approaching 40 now, who knows, wouldn’t Meogines have an advantage? You wouldn’t say that when you see Meogines’ near-perfect body.”

“What is it? Are you saying I’m wrong?”

Agenor and Alcibiades, who are friends, quarreled in the street over the confrontation between Homeus and Megynes. Then a passer-by cut in between them.

“”Victory must be Homeus! No one can defeat the god of death!”

This kind of sight could be seen commonly in various parts of the Agora of Thessalokini. As much as that, the match between Homeus and Meogines was a situation where all the residents of Thessaloniki were interested and noticed.

Meanwhile, at that time, Meogines was training alone in a quiet inn on the outskirts of Thessalokini.

“Whoop whoop whoop.”

As he trained on the island of Thasos, he started with basic physical training and worked up a sweat with batting training with virtual enemies. Afterwards, he started hitting a tree the size of a human torso, mainly hitting indiscriminately using heels, elbows, and fists. However, the strength was so great that the bark of the hard tree was all peeled off, and the tree trunk was carved with Meogines’ fists and footprints.

At that time, someone quietly approached Meogines who was training.
