Chapter 617 – Scripted War
Dismissal.
It is a very sensitive topic for the public.
“”Awaken! Awake!””
“”Awaken! Awake!””
You will lose your job.
Your immediate livelihood may be at risk.
What if the company abuses it carelessly?
It is common to take sides.
“What’s going on?”
“I heard that female employees were fired as a group…”
“Oh~ Just picking on women?”
Scene of protest.
The gaze of passersby looking at them was a little different from usual.
‘Ugh, I thought it would explode at some point.”
Choi Min-sik has been an office worker for 10 years.
I have been here in Pangyo for over 6 years.
In the IT industry, it is at a mid-level level.
If you stay that long, you’ll learn even if you don’t like it.
─Is our company the only one plagued by female employees?
Newcomers who came in with the female bonus point buff
It’s astounding that he can’t do anything and only insists on himself
Even if something inconvenient happens
Fired for discrimination and workplace harassment
My work skills are the worst and I still don’t know how to use Excel
You have to do everything
Even if you report it to superiors, it is not grounds for dismissal, and you cannot be demoted, let alone fired;;
└Employees of large companies don’t even know how to use Excel?
└A few years ago, the hiring policy strangely changed to favor women
└These days, if you say one or two wrong words to the female employees, you get in trouble haha
└This isn’t even a game of tag
In reality.
As a middle manager, I have no choice but to judge the abilities of my employees.
“Honestly, I think he got fired because he deserved it.”
“Admit it.”
“If they were fired as a group to that extent, then the company must have done it deliberately.”
The difference starts from the specifications.
It is natural that there are additional points.
They are also uncooperative at work.
If you do all the rest.
‘I don’t get any sympathy.’
Same worker.
I have too many things to think like that.
It’s no different from a privileged class.
At least they are not the people you should worry about.
“What are you looking at, you idiot!”
“Don’t let men be careful.”
“Women are getting in the way of doing big things.”
Such a fact.
It is clearly visible.
It wasn’t just the people who were fired.
Professional protesters obstruct the passage of passers-by.
It is causing inconvenience.
‘Oh, it’s noisy!’
‘I thought I was cutting a pig’s throat.’
‘How much fat is in your vocal cords?’
It’s noisy.
It is violent.
Even his words and actions are not normal.
“Did it come from some service company?”
“No matter how I look at it, it looks suspicious.”
“Hey, I have to report it.”
It is natural to feel uncomfortable.
This is not an ordinary protest.
I would like to say something because I feel the same way.
There were such passers-by, too.
“If you want to travel, where do you want to go?”
Gatekeeper.
It is blocked by a very large woman who resembles a Pacifica.
Completely blocks the passage of the public.
After creating the stage I wanted.
“Seed Studio committed the atrocity of singling out and firing only female employees! Seed Studio and its new major shareholder, Lee Chan-wook, must provide an explanation and apology!”
A press conference is held.
The camera shutter is firing as if it had been waiting.
Directing.
The atmosphere was created to let people know that the current situation is serious.
“I want to hear the difference in position between the company and the employees regarding the reasons and process for dismissal!”
There are people who slander it.
A reporter’s question turns the scene cold.
Because I broke the unwritten rule
Who is qualified to ask questions here?
“What is it, that bastard?”
“If you’re a reporter, act like a reporter!”
“What are the police doing? Why are they not sending that strange person out?”
Female reporter.
Pro-women media.
You must belong to one of the two.
A male reporter is dragged away.
She has no choice but to feel unfair.
‘It’s a press conference? Why are you not letting me ask questions? …’
This is not a normal press conference.
Proceed according to their own taste.
Korean Newspaper− “”Again! I was punished because I was a woman”… “This company fired a group of female employees”
Fact News− “Women’s groups file a collective complaint against ‘Seed Studio’ for laying off women”
Daily News− 「Lee Chan-wook invested in a misogynistic company that fired women? “On the chopping block of responsibility controversy”
It is to create public opinion as one.
Focus on discrimination against women.
Issue.
It spreads like wildfire.
No, we are raising it with all our might.

Wow, did you just pick out the women and fire them?
My hands and feet are shaking just thinking about it…
────────────
Boss****
I supported Lee Chan-wook, but I was so disappointed
How can I invest in a female-owned company?
Absolutely boycott the food market ㅡ

Dg74****
I’m going to hell because I can’t manage the company
Act while being selective about who is taking care of your food ^^

The article is posted.
Coordinates are transmitted.
Comments and likes are pouring in.
‘It’s amazing…’ … Was it like this?’
Influence.
Eunmi Lee can’t help but be thrilled when she sees the results of the protests.
I felt like grasping at straws.
She asked for help from people she knew.
“Look! What did I say!”
“They say if you send an SOS to women’s groups, it will be resolved in one shot.”
“Girls can do anything!”
She is active in the women’s rights movement.
And that’s not a hobby, it’s a job.
Does that make money?
There were definitely times when I didn’t understand.
‘If this happens, the company won’t be able to sit still.’
Your thoughts have no choice but to change.
The portal site is being turned upside down.
They say it’s even on the news.
Her own unemployment becomes a national topic.
“But you won’t cause harm or anything like that later, right?”
“Who? Men?!”
“Fuck it!! Don’t let a man be discreet!”
“Hey, it’s a restaurant, so be quiet…”
Acquaintances who helped.
We are having a meal together.
I felt like I needed to buy him at least some food.
‘It’s going to cost a lot of money. The size of the back is surprisingly large.’
It’s almost embarrassing to walk around with.
But it is also true that it was helpful.
We may be able to get it back with this protest.
Not only reinstatement but also revenge.
Chi profit… !
It’s cheap to buy a few meals.
They grill meat with a smiling face.
‘I asked about the number of hits.’
If it becomes a hot topic like this…’
Will there be more subsidies from the government?’
My acquaintances also have plans.
Women’s group.
It is operated in an organized manner.
—————————–±
『Women’s Group Structure』
「Korea Women’s Organization Federation」
↓
Dozens of places including 「Women’s Association」, 「Gender Research Institute」
↓
Hundreds of places including 「Bopyeong Sisters」, 「Butter Knife Crew」
±——————————————–
They belong to a lower-level group.
There is not much budget from the government.
How to get more?
The women’s movement must be carried out, and its achievements recognized.
“Eunmi, you thought well. You contributed greatly to advancing women’s human rights!”
“Really?”
“Let’s drink today! Let’s die!”
“Let’s kill the Korean man!”
“”Kkkk!””
We achieved tremendous results.
The media is also paying attention.
It’s not that kind of story.
‘It was a huge hit!’
Lee Chan-wook.
He is a giant among giants.
There is no one in Korea who does not know this.
He is so involved.
He was named as the majority shareholder of ‘Seed Studio’.
The same goes for politicians and businessmen.
Very vulnerable to misogynistic frames.
“If George is a celebrity, there will be an unconditional response. When our reporters ask for an interview, they always say it’s because of him.”
“Only our reporters?”
“Even articles differ depending on who writes them.”
“Reporters can’t be careful~.”
“”Kkkk!””
I will do my best to avoid it somehow.
The purpose is the same.
More than that.
They may rip off your sponsorship by asking you to prove that you are not a misogynist.
‘That’s right. A man must be careful.’
This is a method that has worked hundreds of times so far.
I thought it would go well this time too.
* * *
The ball I was waiting for.
It flies at the right angle at the right time.
‘Then I have to hit it.’
The same is true in reality.
If only I knew what kind of attack would come.
“CEO Lee Chan-wook is now embroiled in a controversy over misogyny. This is really not normal!”
It’s not difficult to cut it out.
No, it is also possible to aim for a home run.
‘As long as the referee doesn’t make a biased decision.’
Tilted playground.
If there really was such a thing in reality, it would be the current situation.
A press conference is taking place.
Unlike some, it is an official position.
“I would like to take this opportunity to express my deepest regret.”
“Are you admitting it?”
“Are you willing to apologize to the affected employees?”
“No. The regret I have is for the company’s business partners.”
“”?!!””
The question is asked as if it is biting.
This is natural considering freedom of speech.
‘If you write what you want, that’s not fair. How can you be a journalist?’
It is a difficult environment to do that.
2021.
It was a good country for some extreme women to live in.
Laws and systems are tilted.
Even though we are clearly aware of that fact.
“Some people mistakenly believe that the reason for the employees’ dismissal was simply because they were women, but that is not the fundamental reason. It was discovered that the employees in question had left misogynistic expressions in the company’s work.”
Push.
It escalates the situation.
It is still only the early stages.
‘Such pointless things;
The entire nation, politicians, and even the president took it seriously.
Actually.
Buzz, buzz!
It’s natural for the press conference to become noisy.
Misogyny is often an issue.
“You call it man-hating?”
“Is there such a thing as male hatred?”
“Oh my god, men have vested rights…”
No response to men.
No, it is accurate to say that there is no interest at all.
‘Lighting a fire in a land where there is nothing.’
Making smoke.
You have to start a fire.
It is by no means an easy task.
Therefore, there are things that can be done.
In this society, you can receive something called ‘hate’.
“We wanted to handle it as quietly as possible as it was causing damage to our business partners. Since we have also confirmed that this hate controversy is not limited to Seed Studio, I would like to inform you that the same treatment will be taken at other companies in which I have a stake.”〈 Br〉
A scripted war begins.
