Located in a somewhat secluded area, Songhwagung was a branch of a center in Taiwan operated by a global corporation called GLP, and it had been the talk of the town among the ladies even before its opening.
In the midst of this, the matriarch of the Samjung Group mentioned Songhwagung at a social gathering of chaebol wives she often met.
When she appeared with a face that seemed rejuvenated despite being over seventy and mentioned she was under the care of Songhwagung, rumors quickly spread among the ladies.
“What’s the big deal about the rumor I spread? I told the truth, and my face is the proof. Do you think those women would come just because they believe my words?”
“Haha……. I don’t know how to thank you. I’m so grateful.”
Lady Kang Ok Hee liked Hyun Seo not only professionally but also personally.
She had been impressed with him from the first time she saw him, introduced by Grace Park. Hyun Seo’s earnest and sincere demeanor as he raised his child alone had touched her.
“By the way, my daughterinlaw wants to bring a guest next week. She asked me to speak to you. That’s also why I called you.”
“How many people will come?”
“Probably three including my daughterinlaw.”
Hyun Seo answered with a friendly yet deep gaze.
“Yes, please let me know when the schedule is set. I’ll prepare well.”
Members of each center were managed so that they could book without difficulty, if possible.
Lady Kang nodded with a satisfied expression.
“Thanks to you, I’m getting treated well by my daughtersinlaw these days. Thank you.”
“You’re too kind. I’m always grateful.”
“Phew…….”
Resting his elbows on the desk and washing his face, Do Ha let out a sigh.
It was because of an unresolved problem.
He had started a business related to cosmetics about two years ago. It was a business that he thought of while thinking about his departed wife.
Hyun Seo, who was interested in everything, had been fascinated by medicinal herbs he learned about from his grandfather in his childhood, and had a lot of interest in not only Chinese, but also oriental medicine and traditional Chinese medicine.
Whenever he went to a mountainlike place, he would pick herbs and use them for folk remedies or to make cosmetics. At that time, it just seemed like a small hobby.
“Brother, when Seo Ha grows up a bit, I want to try a cosmetics business.”
“Cosmetics?”
“I want to make my own cosmetics. You’ll help me then, right?”
When Hyun Seo said that, Do Ha was weighing the realistic vision and prospects of the business in his head.
“Okay. Let’s think about it again later.”
From then on, he should have seriously considered and actively pushed for it. If he had, she might still be working in the same building and living as his wife.
Whenever he thought about various things, he regretted why he couldn’t do that, feeling as if everything was his fault.
He remembered his wife’s dream at that time while aimlessly longing for his missing wife.
He had thought about what he could do while he was waiting for his wife without any promise.
He thought that if Hyun Seo ever came back, he should now let him do what he likes to his heart’s content.
There were employees who opposed when he said he would start a new business that had no relevance at all.
However, Do Ha sincerely convinced them and established a new cosmetic business division.
The small company that started by separating the business line had grown quite a bit and had moved out of the startup phase.
Thanks to continuous investment in research, it had not exploded, but had been steadily growing.
In the meantime, Do Ha had also been promoted to the executive director of the Jinseong Group.
Do Ha, who had been contemplating for a while, picked up the phone on his desk.
“Yes, Executive Director.”
“Please contact the laboratory in Paju and tell the director to come to my office today.”
“The director is free at three o’clock, I will arrange for that time and contact him.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Do Ha was lost in thought.
‘I wish it could be resolved somehow.’
There was a problem with the whitening cream that had been consistently researched.
A substantial amount of research costs had been invested, but one of the ingredients used in it was patented.
He couldn’t buy the ingredient or contact the person who held the patent because there was no contact information.
But strangely, he had a feeling of déjà vu. He seemed to have heard about this ingredient in the past, but he couldn’t remember what it was.
‘What was it?’
It was vague, but it was something he strangely wanted to remember. It seemed very important.
.
.
.
It was almost three o’clock and he was still focusing when he heard a knock.
Knock, knock
“Executive Director, the lab director is here.”
The director entered with the secretary’s guidance.
Do Ha closed the document he was looking at and stood up from his seat.
“Please have a seat. You must have had a hard time coming here.”
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
