“What on earth did I run all this way for?”
A life comic that reminds those who have only looked forward and run forward about what is important!

Publisher's Review
“I’m Manager Kim of a large company who is also good at real estate investment!”
─ Attention, old farts! The hyper-realistic story of Manager Kim, who will raise office workers' blood pressure, is coming!
“Well then, can the company run without me?”
“Back in my day, I couldn’t even imagine driving a better car than my boss...”
“After eating this, the third stop is a noodle restaurant! Everyone, don’t even think about going home today!!”
Manager Kim has been working at a large company for 25 years, earns an annual salary of around 100 million won, and most importantly, owns a house in Seoul.
My hobbies include luxury shopping, golf, and having company dinners with coworkers.
They live in self-importance and absolutely cannot tolerate anything that damages their pride.
Manager Kim can't stand to see his subordinates drive foreign cars to work, and he can't stand his less-than-perfect colleague, Manager Choi, carrying a better bag and living in a better apartment.
The sight of Manager Kim struggling to keep up is funny, and he's so old-fashioned that you don't want to get close to him. However, as you watch Manager Kim's life, crises, and growth, you find yourself rooting for him wholeheartedly.
This is because the image of Manager Kim, who appears strong but carries the burden of a difficult life, somehow resembles our parents, husbands or wives, and me.
“If you keep running forward without stopping, the destination is a cliff.”
─ Everyone faces a crisis at least once. What will Manager Kim do when he stands on the edge of a cliff?
“After decades of running along a rough and rugged path, I finally arrived at...
“This is my grave.”
“Why did I live so diligently, looking only ahead?”
“That damn money...
money...
Stop it.
“I guess I can earn it somehow!”
Among the four-volume series, volumes 1 and 2 of the Manager Kim series show the life and growth of Manager Kim, who has been running forward without looking back.
Manager Kim is cornered when he hears the shocking news that he has been transferred to a factory from the company he trusted.
The feeling of loss at being abandoned by the company I had dedicated 25 years to and the responsibility of taking care of my family brought waves of worry about the future.
Then, something caught Manager Kim's eye: a "new town shopping center." A self-proclaimed "real estate investor," Manager Kim, filled with dreams of becoming a Starbucks building owner, signed a contract for the new town shopping center and rejoiced.
Will the rosy future that Manager Kim dreamed of unfold this time? The main text reveals Manager Kim's unwavering retirement life, a life that remains unsettling until the very end.
