After dinner, President Kwon and I walked out of the tuna restaurant. I shook hands with him at the door.

“Then, I’ll ask you to do me a favor, President Kwon.”

President Kwon bowed his head and got my handshake. “No, I’ll ask you to do me a favor.”

While I said good-bye to him, I could hear the sound of opening the car door a little way off from me. I raised my head and saw that Secretary Seo was waiting for me in the distance. When I saw him, I said to President Kwon, “Oh, by the way, at that time… What happened that day will continue to be a secret between us. I don’t want it to leak it out either. Of course, I got a check back then, but OH Entertainment is now my company.”

Kwon recalled things then and said with a quick smile, “Yes, I see.”

I was about to say a real good-bye. But then, he said one more thing, “Boss, then… Should I tell Oh Hyun-joo that?”

Come to think of it, there was one more person who knew this fact: Oh Hyun-joo. I thought about it for a while, and said to him, “Oh, that’s… I think it would be better for me to talk to her in person.”

“Oh, would you?”


‘I’m sure it’ll be more fun. Maybe she’ll recognize me, too. I’m curious about that.’

“Yes. I think it’s better. Oh Hyun-joo does not know that I’m going to be a major shareholder, does she?”

“Of course not. I didn’t know until just now.”

“Yes, then, just keep it that secret. When we meet again, I’ll talk to her in person.”

“Oh, please feel free to contact me whenever you come to our company. I’ll adjust the schedule of Oh Hyun-joo…”

“No, no. We’ll meet naturally anyway.”

Kwon bowed to me once again for the last time. “Yes, I see, boss.”

————————————–

Vice President Jang spoke in front of me, giving me a document that said the contract was complete. “All the detailed procedures are done. The announcement of the contract will be made sometime today. In a week, the boss will officially become a major shareholder of OH Entertainment.”

“Yes. Thank you for your work. I trust that you will take care of the rest without any problem.”

“Don’t worry about that.”

As soon as Jang left the president’s office, my cell phone rang. I picked it up and checked the time. It was an alarm at 8:50. The news 12 Hours After and 12 Days After were coming. Two emails came in just at 8:55.

[P. 12 Hours After]

[P. 12 Days After]

‘It is not long before the P in front of the email will turn into Diamond’s D.’ Thinking that, I clicked on the news.

‘No, no, no, no… No.’

In 12 Hours After, there was nothing. I then looked over 12 Days After.

‘No… um?’ There was just one catchy piece of news.

[Economy – the rebellion of the price of Masung Group]

‘If it’s Masung Group…’

It was the company of Chairman Jeon Hee-joong, who died of a heart attack on a fishing ground last time. I clicked on it.

[Masung group is engulfed in the prince’s rebellion. Since the death of Jeon Hee-joong, Chairman of Masung Group, due to an acute heart attack on the fishing grounds on April 4, Jeon Woo-hyun, the eldest son of Jeon Hee-joong, seemed to take over as the group chairman, but the second son Jeon Woo-jin and several other board members opposed it….]

‘Oh, the chairman died suddenly, it has led to conflicts between people.

‘There’s an old saying, Brothers are not very close in a rich family. That’s not right every time, but it’s common to see brothers fighting over inheritances anyway. If it’s a chaebol group, then it’s a fight at the company level. But it’s been a long time since…

‘There are a lot of people who are fighting among the princes and then split up the whole group. So, these days, the chairman tends to arrange the inheritance before he dies. For the first is construction, for the second is finance, and for the third is fashion. In this way… However, Masung Group Chairman Jeon Hee-joong seems to have caused this problem because he was in his fifties and died suddenly of a heart attack.

‘If it’s a group fight, there’ll be ups and downs in the stock market. The Masung Group is an unlisted group. The Masung Group is a rare company not listed on the KOSPI or KOSDAQ, among the nation’s top fifty companies. That’s a bit disappointing. If it were only listed…’

‘People Search – Jeon Woo-hyun’

‘People Search – Jeon Woo-jin’

I could’ve put both of the brothers in a character search, but this time, I should just go over it.

‘I feel sorry.’ I locked my fingers together, put them behind my head and backed away. ‘I need to make more money.’

During the first month and the second month, I had earned nearly triple, but this month was not good. Of course, I’d already earned $10,000,000 for the subscription fee, but I needed to earn more than that to grow my account and develop my company.

‘Well… it’ll be much better if I get Diamond Class. Every time the grade goes up, it has been true…’

| I turned on the HTS without much thought. If there were any stocks that were skyrocketing or plummeting, I might be able to use People Search in 12 Days After. But around 10 a.m. when the stock price of CDK Entertainment rose 5%.

‘What is it?’ The contract was already up. So, the higher the stock price, the better.

‘Is there any good news on the air?’

I was trying to find out on the Internet, but there was a call. I looked up the phone.

“Boss.”

“Hmm?”

“No, because of the news about our company, I called you.”

“News?”

“In the Internet newspaper, the name of our company and your name are on the air. Would you like to take a look?”

Come to think of it, Kaiji, Director of Daewon Daily News Lee Won-jae said, “To celebrate this deal, I’ll put the news on the air.”

‘Anyways, there’s a public announcement after the market. I think they made the news before then.’

“Oh… Okay. I’ll look for it.” When I finished the call, I immediately went to the search box and typed ‘Invictus Investment.’ I saw the news that was released just a moment ago.

‘Who is the new owner of CKD Entertainment, which has been surrounded by acquisition news?’

The company that uploaded the news might be the media from the branch of the Daewon Daily News. I clicked on the article.

[It is confirmed that the rumored sale of CKD Entertainment is true. Recently, they suffered from a series of business failures and rumors. Do Chan-ki, the representative of the company, has been saying that it is a groundless rumor in the recent acquisition, but it is not true.]

I read the article quickly. And in the meantime, my name came out.

[The new owner of CKD Entertainment is Invictus Investment, a new company with a somewhat unfamiliar name, known to be run by young CEO Han Sang-hoon (29), a new company less than a month old. The capital of Invictus Investment is $30,000,000, and has safely bought the stake of Do Chan-ki, the representative of the company.]

I read it over and over again, focusing on it, because it was the name of the company, the part where my name was in it, and I wondered if it was good or not. But in this article, it just said a new Investment Company took over CKD Entertainment. It simply stated a list of facts.

[… it is noteworthy whether the big deal will be concluded.]

‘He said he’d write it well. There’s not much good to say.’

I looked at it for a moment, but then I thought of CKD Entertainment.

‘Now they know that our company is taking over the CKD Entertainment. That’s why the stock price went up. The rumor of the takeover is good news for a stock price to rise.’

I returned to HTS.

[CKD Entertainment +2%]

The stock price of CKD Entertainment, which briefly ran to +5%, was back down. It was no wonder, as our company had no name and no huge capital. Just like Jiwoo Entertainment, it was hard for the story of an orphan who had been adopted to the home of a chaebol, to come out.

I dropped by the stock bulletin board.

– Finally, a new owner comes out. Thank God. CEO Do Chan-ki, how much did he lose?

– Han Sang Hoon is the new owner? He is young. What’s Invictus like?

– Han Sang Hoon? I haven’t heard of the name. It’s like a rumor. If you buy it now, you’re a fool. Be careful.

My name was already going up and down. I suddenly remembered the chairman being cursed at Jiwoo Entertainment.

– Kim Dong-il, you son of a bitch! Because of you, I lost my house and my car…

I hoped I would do well so that our stock price would not go down in the future.

‘I’m sure I’ll do well.’

I took my eyes off HTS and went back to the news where my name came out.

[It is reported that Han Sang-hoon (29), a young CEO, is running the new company.]

My name appeared in the real news, not in the news of 12 Hours After, and it made me feel strange. I watched the article for a while. But at that time, suddenly a terrible thought flashed through my mind.

“Uh… Wait a minute… This?”

I got out of my seat. First, the rule that the Customer Service had informed me was that the news from 12 Hours After and 12 Days After would follow the rules of the Korean news. My name was on the real news. There was a thing that came into my mind when the two things came together.

‘If I become famous enough to appear on the news every day?’


I tried portal sites with a slight tremor. Slowly, I searched my name each letter on the portal site. ‘Han Sang Hoon’

There were countless news reports of people named ‘Han Sang-hoon,’ me and others of the same name.

‘… why hadn’t I realized that before?’

It was probably because I had always lived as an extra character in this world, as a supporting actor. I’d never thought of it this way, because I’d never lived in the world as the main character, and I’d never imagined my name would appear in the news.

I would become the most famous Han Sang Hoon in Korea. Then I would be able to find out what would happen in my life in the future by 12 Hours After, 12 Days After, 12 Weeks After, 12 Months After and 12 Years After. I could find out everything I would do through People Search.

‘And then… like the chairman of the Masung Group… There is no need to die of a heart attack because I can fix the future.’

I got up from the chair and I looked out of the window. I thought I had finally figured out how to use 12 Hours After.

‘When I become a main character of the world, news will be written about me. And I will know what news is going to be written.’

I shivered slightly at the fact.
