Chapter 476 – Part 3
Finally, Kim Jin-cheol came.
To be honest, this plan was for Seongjin not to come to Korea.
However, the reason Sungjin came in like this was because he wanted to see Kim Jincheol’s broken appearance with his own eyes.
Seongjin hoped that Kim Jincheol would try to escape by all means.
Only then would the double and triple traps dug by Gwang-shik and Mrs. Hong Ra-gyeong shine, and he hoped that his blood would dry up as he struggled inside.
When the blood dried up and couldn’t stand it, Seongjin thought of laughing in front of Kim Jincheol’s face.
And in the finale, Kim Jin-cheol will end up going to prison while being baptized with flashlights.
However, Kim Jin-cheol came to Seong-jin sooner than expected.
Now, he has only been investigated by the prosecution once, but he has already come to Seongjin.
“Ask me to come in.”
After a while, the front door opened and Jincheol Kim came in, gasping for breath.
It seems that he ran from the front door to the front door in a hurry.
“No.. Teacher Kim Jin-cheol, what are you doing here? How do you know I’m in Korea?”
“Big.. Big.. Sung.. Seongjin-gun.. No.. Chairman Lee, how have you been?”
Kim Jin-chul, who saw Seong-jin’s laid-back appearance, greeted awkwardly, slightly embarrassed.
Still, it seems that Chairman Lee is giving a counter-response to see if there is even a flea’s face.
“Well… It’s me… As you can see, I’m doing very well. Did you take such a difficult step to ask how I was doing?”
Seongjin looked at Kim Jin-chul, who was in a hurry, and held back her laughter that kept bursting out.
“That… Chairman Lee. Please help me.”
Kim Jin-chul had a hard time talking to Seong-jin with a distorted face.
Judging from the fact that he straight-forwardly brought out the main topic, it seems that he is in a hurry to be in a hurry.
Seongjin looked at Kim Jincheol in silence without answering.
Kim Jin-cheol’s face was haggard, as if he had aged 10 years.
It was to the extent that I could tell at a glance how much heartache he was suffering.
“Hmm.. What do you mean by that? I don’t know what’s going on and why you’re saying such absurd things to ask for help. And what kind of power do I have? Under. Would you like to save Mr.
“Don’t do that… President Lee… I know you can save me. I’ve been really wrong all this time. So please save me huh?”
Kim Jin-cheol lowered his head to Seong-jin and begged him.
Seeing that Seong-jin knew that he had the key to the case, it was clear that Kim Jin-cheol was still in power in the regime, and he seemed to be grasping the atmosphere very well.
“No, like me. Okay is a thousand human beings. Under. How do you save Mr. Jincheol Kim of I have no idea what the hell you’re talking about.”
“Hey.. Really.. Would this be like this?”
When Seongjin kept pretending not to know and just being sarcastic, Kim Jincheol burst into anger.
Haa.. It seems that the trashy nature is still the same.
“Huh.. You must not be angry in front of me right now. You still don’t know what you did wrong, do you?”
“What… What?”
Seong-jin’s face turned cold in an instant, and when he spoke out, Kim Jin-cheol started to panic.
The person I absolutely regret right now is Kim Jin-cheol himself.
In the face of the crushing defeat in the election, Mrs. Hong Ra-gyeong and her brother’s newspaper, Kim Jin-cheol’s corruption story had already spread to all newspapers, and now it was being widely reported on the TV 9 o’clock news.
No matter how much the Blue House tried to stop it directly, the government’s influence, which had already fallen into serious lame duck, did not work anywhere.
Kim Jin-chul, who seemed like he would drop a bird, finally realized his situation, and if he stayed still, he had no choice but to go to prison, to the point where he didn’t know how many years he would have to live.
And the bigger problem was that Kim Jin-chul’s own work could affect his father, the president.
If that happens, it is very likely that President Kim Hyeon-sam will give his son as wealth and try to maintain the regime.
In any case, Kim Jin-cheol was in a situation where he had no choice but to go to prison.
In such a situation, the news I heard by chance was that there was a Jangseong Group behind this revelation, and that Seong-jin, who has a close relationship with Mrs. Hong Ra-gyeong of the Jangseong Group, had recently entered Korea.
This news, of course, was not accidental, and was intentionally spilled by Sungjin.
“Look at this. Jincheol Kim Mr. Then why did you touch me when I was quietly helping your father? I am the one who saved your father’s life through older brother Kwang-shik, and I am the one who made your father the president.
How much slush fund did I make for you and the president? But how insignificant I looked, did you dare to reveal your petty greed even to me? When have I ever upset you and the President?”
Seongjin raised his voice and fired at him, while Kim Jincheol didn’t say anything and just kept his mouth shut.
“The son’s fault is the father’s fault. There must have been instructions from President Kim Hyun-sam after Kim Jin-cheol installed it like this. Yes? Well… It doesn’t matter if it’s not…
So, I’ll push you and your father right into the pit.
Do you think losing this general election and being called to the prosecution for your corruption are the end?
If so, you haven’t seen me well until now. I hope you enjoy watching what will happen next while chewing on beans in the prison. Haha..”
As a result, it was clearly revealed that the instigator of all this was Seong-jin.
It must have been a shock to Kim Jin-cheol.
He must have known him as a mere young man who could play with and trample on anything he wanted, who happened to be lucky enough to become a self-made man.
Kim Jin-chul suddenly dropped to his knees on the floor.
“Look, Chairman Lee… No, Chairman Lee. I have committed a mortal sin. Please forgive me just once, just once. No, if you don’t get angry, please finish it on the line where I go to jail. Please don’t touch my father. Big..”
Kim Jin-cheol bowed his head in front of Sung-jin and eventually burst into tears.
If Kim Jin-cheol leaves Seong-jin’s house and mobilizes all means, including the Blue House, he may be able to deal with Seong-jin.
However, the National Assembly was already under the control of Kim Se-joong’s Democratic Party, and the Jangseong Group, the press, and the prosecution were working together as one.
It wasn’t a problem that would end if Seongjin was caught, and if Seongjin was caught, the problem could have gotten worse.
Certainly Kim Jin-cheol was a smart person.
President Kim Hyun-sam was trying to negotiate with Seong-jin to ask him to be removed from this job while shedding tears and kneeling down to ask for his life.
“As long as you don’t touch my father.. Yes.. So-young. I will hand over our So-yeong to the chairman. Didn’t the president also like our So-yeong a lot?”
Kim Jin-cheol raised his head as if he had found the answer, mentioning Kim So-yeong.
“Oh, fuck Nimmy.. Are you talking about that now? Don’t you know how I broke up with Mr. Soyoung? It’s all because of you
She used her daughter as her instrument for her own ends, and still does. Haa.. I really feel sorry for So-young. Poor.”
Seong-jin really wanted to punch Kim Jin-cheol, who was like a human being, hard with his fist.
Kim So-young said that her father was also her father, and she even betrayed Seong-jin, whom she loved so much.
“Go. I don’t want to see your face, so please leave. And never come back.”
“Please… Please… Chairman Lee. I don’t care what happens to me, so please don’t touch my father. Yes?”
Seongjin shouted and turned away, and Kim Jincheol grabbed Seongjin by the crotch of his pants and stretched out.
Seongjin wanted to beat her up and kick her out, but she couldn’t bear it.
“Whoa.. I get it. Let me think about it.”
“Haa.. Thank you. Thank you so much.”
At Seongjin’s words, Kim Jincheol lowered her straight hair.
“Please leave my house now.”
Kim Jin-cheol replied that he knew and left slowly.
A bitter smile appeared on Kim Jin-cheol’s lips as he left.
The bitter thing was that in the end, he had no choice but to go to prison, and the reason he smiled was because of the relief that he would be able to protect his father, who is fortunately the president.
“Let me just think about it. Jincheol Kim Mr. Just thinking.. Hehe..”
However, Seong-jin, who remained in the living room where Kim Jin-cheol had left, sat comfortably on the sofa, crossing his legs and putting a cruel smile on his lips.
She was Seong-jin, who never had the heart to forgive.
Seongjin took her cell phone out of her pocket and called her somewhere.
“Yes. That’s me. I will start the second work of Poongshin Fund. Grab your dollars. And after a week, we will start collecting the maturing bonds.”
A week had passed since Kim Jin-cheol went to Seong-jin.
Every day, the Hanbu Group incident and Kim Jin-chul’s imperial corruption cases were being reported on the news, and the news that Korea First Bank requested public funds from the government saying that it could go bankrupt was being reported.
In the social atmosphere, a sense of crisis was growing, saying that even state-owned banks were about to go bankrupt.
The government, which had already suffered a crushing defeat in the elections, tried to calm the atmosphere somehow, and the president personally issued a statement saying, “Don’t worry, our economy is stronger than expected.”
Office of the President of the Republic of Korea.
“President… It’s a big deal.”
President Kim Hyun-sam was having a serious meeting with his secretaries, led by the chief of economics at the Blue House.
Suddenly, the door to the office opened, and the Minister of Economy jumped in.
“Can’t you see I’m having a meeting with the President right now? What are you making a fuss about?”
The Chief of Staff at the Blue House gave a small shout at the Minister of Economy who dared to act rudely.
“The market has run out of dollars. Someone is suddenly buying dollars in bulk.”
“What? What do you mean all of a sudden? Buying dollars, who the hell is doing that?”
“Anyway… It seems like the Japanese side. The wind god fund created by Kitano is suddenly buying domestic dollars in large quantities.”
“This.. This.. Damn, side-legged bastards. In the end, that’s how you’re going to get revenge. But if you buy dollars from a Japanese fund, won’t yen come in instead? Isn’t that a problem then?”
“That’s not it. It turns out that the Poongshin Fund has already been buying won by releasing dollars since the beginning of this year. Now, the won has been released in large quantities on the market, and the dollar has dried up.”
“What? It’s completely planned. The Minister of Economy summons the Japanese ambassador to protest and tells the Bank of Korea president to come in quickly. And the chief of staff, please contact the United States.”
President Kim Hyun-sam quickly gave the order, and people rushed out of the office with embarrassed faces.
“This is crazy. Because of Jin-cheol, the approval rating is at the bottom now, and it is unknown what the opposition parties will do when the new National Assembly begins next month. Ha..”
President Kim Hyun-sam could only sigh.
I couldn’t understand how the situation had come to this.
Clearly, it was a divine move to stop the lame duck using anti-Japanese sentiment.
And while arresting the two former presidents, he was able to get a very good compromise with the conservatives.
Even so, the election was defeated, the Hanbu group went bankrupt, and his son was even investigated by the prosecution.
I knew for sure that the Jangseong Group had done this, but I couldn’t punish it in the current situation.
It is because the current economy has completely collapsed, and President Kim Hyun-sam was no different from the fire.
However, after knowing the economy, it was the Japanese guys who did it.
It was really crazy and jumpy.
A few hours later, the meeting was held again, this time with the President of the Bank of Korea in attendance.
“Minister of Economics. So, what does the Japanese ambassador say?”
“He doesn’t know anything about it. And he just snorted and went away, asking how to sanction a good company that is doing economic business legitimately.”
“This… These guys who will kill me..”
“Chief Secretary. The United States… Have you ever contacted the United States?”
“Yes. I spoke with the US Ambassador. First of all, I said I would find out what was going on as quickly as possible.”
“Ha.. I’m going crazy. That means there is no definitive answer.”
President Kim Hyun-sam frowned as he seemed to have a momentary headache.
“I’m sorry.”
The chief of staff bowed his head as if he was sorry for the president’s appearance.
“The President of the Bank of Korea. What is the solution to this situation?”
“That… Mr. President. I think we should abolish the fixed exchange rate system.”
“What? Abolish the fixed exchange rate system? Does that make sense now? Isn’t that because the government is tying up the exchange rate, so companies can export as much as they want? But if the exchange rate is released, what will companies do with their exports? Are you suggesting that as a solution now?
Make it impossible to buy more dollars, or think about going somewhere to get more dollars. Huh?”
President Kim Hyeon-sam, as if the president of the Bank of Korea was easygoing, shouted in a fit of rage.
“Haa.. But, Mr. President, if you just defend yourself, you could end up like last year’s Japan. Don’t you know what happened last year when Japan held on to raising interest rates until the end? At least, Japan has a floating exchange rate, so it was able to withstand George Sorobon’s attack in the early stages.”
“So what happened? Huh? Did Japan withstand the attack of the floating exchange rate system? Couldn’t you stand it? You couldn’t stand it.
Are you unable to differentiate between the exchange rate system and financial attacks? Are you still the president of the Bank of Korea?”
The head of the Bank of Korea, who tried to appeal to the president somehow, kept his mouth shut when he thought that Japan had capitulated by raising interest rates and ruined the economy.
“All I need now is dollars. Pray for a way to save dollars. Chief of staff, call the US ambassador again and see if they can lend you an urgent dollar.”
“Yes. All right.”
The chief secretary ran out.
“What are you guys doing? Minister of Economy, President of the Bank of Korea, go and get dollars right away. Okay?”
After the Minister of Economy and the Governor of the Bank of Korea answered, they had no choice but to leave the office with a sigh.
After leaving his office, the Bank of Korea president simply shook his head while looking at the Minister of Economy.
I thought maybe it was already too late.
