Publisher's Review
"Seoul, Seoul, damn Seoul! Even if I die soon, will my hopeful future ultimately lie in Seoul?"
─ Luxury shopping and foreign car flex! The arrival of Deputy Jeong, a man who lives only for today!

"Only four hearts? Last time, I got over 200."
“A fleeting, uncertain future flashes before my eyes, but we only live once.
“I’ll put my worries aside.”

Manager Jeong, who works at a large company.
I'm somehow managing my company life by trying to please my manager and working moderately.
I don't have much money saved up, but I always trade in my car that I've driven for over 10 years for a foreign car, or buy a new car whenever it comes out at a department store.
I'm meeting my girlfriend, a business aspirant, and preparing for marriage, but I'm worried that we'll have to live in a remote area far from Seoul.
This is the moment when the word 'Inseoul', which I have heard so often since high school, feels suffocating again.

Since moving from the countryside to Seoul during his school days, Manager Jeong has always compared himself to his friends from wealthy families.
So I paid more attention to how I appeared to others and tried not to fall behind.
Then one day, he meets Barry, a high school classmate and particularly wealthy friend, on the street and goes to his house to play.
After a brief moment of reminiscing, Manager Jeong is shocked when he sees the envelope his friend Barry gave him...


“Efforts to do well always come back as hurt.”
─ The story of the growth of passionate new employee Kwon, who struggles between dreams and reality!

“If I had made a different choice one day in the past, would my life be different now?”
“I feel skeptical about the current state of affairs, where we have been running at full speed toward a destination that was obviously set in stone.”

Kwon Sa-won, who ran towards his set destination harder than anyone else.
Although I approached everything with passion, when things didn't go as planned, neither my work nor my love life, I felt lethargic and drinking alone at home after work became a daily routine.
I have nightmares where I prepare and rehearse in my head over and over again to make the project I'm assigned a success, but my voice doesn't come out and I end up waking up drenched in sweat.
As I began to question, "Is this really what I wanted?", I stumbled upon a graduate school application I'd been preparing for a few years ago, and began to worry about my future...
Will Kwon be able to find the life he truly wants?


“It was a dark and somewhat unsettling story, one I couldn't bring myself to tell anyone.”
─ The dark and painful past of Manager Song, who was thought to have everything perfect, is revealed!
The long-awaited conclusion to Manager Kim's story!

“Dirty, useless garbage.
“I thought that it was I who had to be abandoned.”
“For the fragrance of each other’s lives.”

Manager Song, who never spares encouragement and guidance for his juniors, and who always seems to have the right answer no matter what they ask.
But even he had a dark past that others didn't know about.
Even during my school days and my social life, I had a hard time doing even simple tasks properly, so I was always treated like trash and felt like my life was not worth living.
However, with my father's support, I tried to change little by little, and even though I didn't know how, I kept challenging myself until I found the way.
After that, he finally meets his family, with whom he had been estranged for a long time, and takes steps into the world, meeting new people.

One day, while continuing his efforts for change, he goes to the house of his father's old friend and is shocked.
The friend lived in poverty like his father, but he received compensation worth several billion won for the land he farmed, and his life changed forever.
After that, Manager Song began saving money in earnest, studying real estate, and preparing to change his life.
How did Manager Song overcome his dark past to become a dependable mentor and father? The story of his journey to becoming the Manager he is today, and his future path, will be revealed in the final volume, Volume 5.
