“What are you doing?”
He looked down at me sternly, scolding with his eyes.
“I mean…”
“Didn’t I say there was nothing wrong?”
“No, no serious matter.”
Did he scold because I didn’t explain it meticulously? Da Jeong looked up at him with a perplexed expression.
Then, a languid voice sharply pricked her eardrum.
“Are you the office manager?”
The sophisticated suit that Tae Sang wore was far from a uniform. He scanned Tae Sang from top to bottom and spoke as if suspicious.
“You don’t seem to be a cabin crew… a headquarters employee?”
“Yes.”
Tae Sang stood up as if to protect Da Jeong and spoke.
The height that one had to look up at, the confident tone of speech whose origin was hard to guess. On top of that, the overwhelming gaze that seemed to press down.
Whether the man was daunted by his formidable attitude, he shifted his gaze and subtly changed his tone.
“Wwell, it’s not a matter for headquarters staff to interfere in.”
“I am the overall service manager of Air Korea. You can talk to me.”
The implication of a higher position than an office manager made the man’s eyebrows rise slightly. He straightened his shoulders and poured out a sermon with a scolding tone.
“No, it’s not just anyone, our older brother is the executive in charge of the cabin here. I’m also the president of an Air Korea partnership company. In other words, this is our company, our company. But the service is a complete mess, how can I leave it be?”
“The executive of the passenger department……”
“Yes, Executive Kim Ki Joo. You must know him if you work at headquarters?”
“Yes, I know. Executive Kim.”
“……What? Kim, Executive Kim?”
Tae Sang quietly nodded without saying anything. The man’s expression crumbled at the attitude that seemed to ask what the problem was.
“Even if you don’t know the pecking order, you have a station, you green kid, what? Executive Kim? We need to educate the lowerlevel employees properly, this won’t do. Where are you assigned?”
“The Vice President’s office.”
“Your position?”
“Vice President.”
“……”
For a moment, the man’s brow furrowed tightly. Annoyance filled the thick wrinkles, and a chuckle burst out from the slightly open mouth.
The next moment, the man took a deep breath and puffed out his chest like a penguin.
It was obvious that he was about to blow his top and scold him for talking nonsense. Her heart was troubled by the upcoming commotion, but the man’s mouth slowly let out empty air.
He seemed to have no common sense but fortunately, he seemed to have tact.
“You, really a vice president…? No, right? Hey, flight attendant, isn’t that right?”
The man asked, throwing his gaze over Tae Sang’s shoulder. As Da Jeong quickly stuck out her head and opened her mouth, a response came from an unexpected place.
“I am Cha Tae Sang, Vice President of the office. Please pass on my message to Mr. Kim to properly educate his subordinates.”
“A real Vice President? Then, the eldest of the Hyosung Group… Huff!”
There wasn’t anyone who didn’t know that the core executives of Air Korea were from the owner’s family. The man’s lips trembled at the chilling thought that his own and his brother’s position might be in danger.
Swallowing his saliva once, he let the stiffness in his throat ease.
“No, no. When I said ‘educate subordinates’, that’s because… It just slipped out when I was instructing a flight attendant lacking manners….”
“Why are you instructing our flight attendants?”
Tae Sang growled in a low voice.
“From a customer’s perspective, one might do that. If there’s something lacking, one might offer guidance and… Isn’t that how it is?”
“Is that so? Then, from today onwards, you are not our airline’s customer.”
The completely emotionless voice dropped like a hammer on the man’s head.
He was the type of person who, when looked down upon, would take it lightly and feel dismissed. Not knowing gratitude, he’d try to step on others to rise.
For such people, it should be clearly stamped who is above and who is not. A pressurefilled look whirled in Tae Sang’s eyes as he looked down at the man.
“…Not a customer, what does that mean?”
“Causing a disturbance on the flight and verbal abuse towards the flight attendant. These are clear reasons for refusal of boarding.”
“Refusal of boarding? No, even if you’re the Vice President, you can’t do this!”
“It’s not because I’m the Vice President, but because I have common sense.”
“Com… common sense…?”
The man repeated Tae Sang’s words with a distorted expression. If it were his personality, he would have screamed by now, but it seemed he couldn’t afford to handle the aftermath.
Da Jeong was quietly watching him, forgetting even to breathe. He had an overwhelming aura that dominated the surroundings.
His wellforged words were sharp but respectful, and his gaze at the other was intense. He was an impressive man, as a man and as a boss, who could even take one’s soul.
“It seems there’s nothing more to say.”

Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
