I Became Park Jeong-ui’s Nephew - Chapter 99

He became Park Jeong-ui’s nephew. – (99)

“Isn’t there any way to kill it?”

“We don’t have any information. How are we going to get to Korea?”

This is Aomori Prefecture, Japan.

A group of young men planned an assassination.

Their true identity is Zainichi Koreans. Why are they discussing the assassination of the Korean president here?

The South Korean government, which received information that North Korea was behind the coup d’état that involved Koreans in Japan, consulted with the US military government in Japan and expelled 700,000 Koreans in Japan across the 3rd and 9th parallel.

That was 9 years ago,

Of course, the passage of time does not mean that the resentment from that day has disappeared.

Koreans in Japan harbored resentment toward the United States for banishing them to the outskirts, and furthermore, they viewed the South Korean president, who was blocking national unification, as the axis of evil.

It’s impossible to shoot the US President across the Pacific Ocean, but isn’t the Korea Strait the only thing that stands between Korea and Japan?

A group of energetic young men planned to assassinate the President of South Korea.

The problem is that they don’t have any information.

What route should I take to get to Korea?

Even if Korea and Japan normalize diplomatic relations, people who want to travel between the two countries must go through entry procedures, and if identity fraud is discovered, Koreans in Japan will face social contempt and discrimination for causing trouble again.

No matter how I think about it, it’s a plan that has more harm than good.

In addition, after the Koreans in Japan were expelled across the 3/9 parallel, the link between North Korea and Chongryon was also severed.

How can these people, who cannot even receive support from North Korea, wash their identities and go to South Korea to assassinate the president?

Here, one person caught the eye of Koreans in Japan.

[Lotte Group establishes a corporation in Korea.]

[Will the path be open for Koreans in Japan?]

The identity is Shin Kyuk-ho, the president of Lotte Group.

Born in Ulsan, South Korea, Shin Kyuk-ho came to Japan in 1941 to start a business, and now, 20 years later, he has grown into the head of a major corporation.

Shin Kyuk-ho, who wanted to further expand his business, approached Korea and donated a large sum of money to establish the Pohang Iron and Steel Company, which resulted in the formal establishment of a corporation in Korea.

But this is just the tip of the iceberg,

There are 39 industrial complexes established in Yeongnam, and 28 of them received investments from Korean entrepreneurs with Japanese nationality.

This is also hopeful news for Koreans in Japan.

Could this incident be an opportunity for Koreans in Japan to return to their home country or escape political oppression?

But the young people whose goal was to assassinate the South Korean president did not think that far.

Their only goal is revenge,

I racked my brain to figure out how to infiltrate Korea.

***

“The Zainichi?”

“Yes, Chairman, I would like to ask for your help in finding work in Korea.”

“That might be difficult… Aren’t the Zainichi traitors?”

This is the Lotte Group headquarters in Japan.

Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho drew a line at the request of Koreans in Japan.

Did Lotte Group enter Korea because Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho is Korean?

Because they made donations to establish POSCO and promised to pay taxes to the Korean government, Koreans in Japan are still treated as abandoned children by the Korean government.

Since liberation, Chongryon has been operating under orders from North Korea. As long as the threat of North Korea exists, isn’t Chongryon a group that should never be approached?

Shin Kyuk-ho knows this well, as he travels between Korea and Japan.

Koreans in Japan are not worth getting close to or helping.

When Shin Kyuk-ho appeared like this, Koreans in Japan felt betrayed.

Those who betray their nation will be punished, and the three assassins shot Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho as he came out of the building.

Taang~!!

“What?!!”

“Gyaaak~!!”

The surroundings turned into chaos due to the sudden gunshots.

As the first shot missed, another accomplice hiding nearby also pulled out a gun.

This time, two people aimed for Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho’s head, but it was not easy for untrained people to aim for the head of a person 20 meters away.

The second bullet grazed the shoulder of a bodyguard guarding Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho, and the other struck the leg of a passerby.

The panicked assassins pulled the trigger again, but the bullets did not go out.

Meanwhile, people nearby rushed in and subdued the criminals.

“Hyukjun!! Shoot!! Shoot!!”

“You have to shoot!! Now is your chance!!”

Another accomplice, who happened to be nearby, heard his colleagues’ shouts.

If I pull out my gun here, can I kill Shingyeokho?

He had seen firsthand how his friends had failed, and he was not a trained agent to deal with failure, so he was not very good at following up.

“Hyukjun!!”

“How could you do this?!! Come back!!”

The criminal ran away, abandoning his friends. Only then did the bodyguards realize that there was another accomplice and began to chase after the fleeing young man.

Although he ran quite far, running was useless. The assassin was caught in a house and was brutally beaten by his bodyguards.

“This XX kid!!”

“Who dares to kill you?!! Should we kill you?!!”

“I was wrong!! I was wrong!! Please forgive me!!”

The assassin, who is unable to come to his senses due to the merciless pouring of kicks,

Anyway, the bodyguards handed over the three attempted assassins to the Japanese police. Where did these kids get the guns to shoot Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho?

The results of the police investigation were surprising.

“You stole a police officer’s gun?!!”

“yes….”

“Does that make sense?!! How did you guys take guns away from the police?!!”

Surprisingly, this was true.

He lured the police by making a false report and beat them to obtain a gun. Although he managed to obtain a gun with great difficulty, he did not even practice shooting it.

It’s a miracle that these immature guys shot at the scene.

In any case, the Japanese police even resorted to torture to uncover the assassins’ intentions.

“I was planning to go to Korea to ask Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho for a job. But he wouldn’t cooperate, so I tried to shoot him to death.”

“Korea? What are you going to do there?”

“I tried to kill President Park Sang-geun. That man is a traitor to the nation who is obstructing the unification of the country and cooperating with the United States.”

“What… what is it?”

The Japanese police were shocked.

It would have been world-shattering to attempt to assassinate Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho, but these reckless men attempted to assassinate the President of Korea. If that had happened, diplomatic relations between Korea and Japan would have been irreversible.

The only good thing is that the tail was caught here.

Japanese politics has been seriously contemplating how to deal with this issue.

“Wouldn’t it be better to let Korea know about it too?”

“What good will it do to let you know? Do you hope to hear a word of thanks from Korea?”

“That’s right. It’s best to just bury this quietly. You should tell Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho the same thing.”

Japanese politics has decided to bury this incident.

What will happen to the Korean government when the truth of the incident comes to light?

There are currently 1.22 million Japanese people residing in the Shanghai-Jeju Island area and receiving protection from the Korean government.

However, since Japan is unable to properly control the 700,000 Koreans living in Japan, this kind of thing has happened. If the Japanese government were to inform Korea of ​​this incident, it would be obvious what kind of reaction they would have.

Shingyeokho also agreed with that opinion and decided to bury this incident quietly.

***

“Your Majesty, I hear there’s been a commotion in Japan.”

“What’s the fuss?”

“Koreans in Japan tried to assassinate Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho.”

Today, as the routine continues, I received a report from the Central Intelligence Agency.

How many ordinary Americans are cooperating with the CIA?

I don’t know the exact number, but it’s probably around 100,000 people. With that many eyes acting as the eyes and ears of the CIA, how could Korea be any different?

There are approximately 30,000 civilians working with the Central Intelligence Agency, and there are also quite a few eyes and ears planted in Japan.

In particular, Chongryon is an organization with ties to North Korea, and I have been monitoring them steadily for the past seven years.

It’s something that didn’t happen in this era, but my uncle’s wife, Yuk Young-soo, was killed by a Zainichi Korean, and in any case, these guys are hard to deal with.

If we accept them as our own kind, it is dangerous, but if we keep our distance, we need to manage them consistently. What should we do with these guys?

If you come to Korea, won’t you make a fuss about unifying the country?

Let me be clear: I am a person who values ​​order, not bloodlines.

The fact that 1.22 million Japanese people live in Shanghai and Jeju Island did not cause any particular disturbance, and the same goes for the 30,000 Jews.

Should we accept these people into Korean society, who could become bombs at any moment, just because they are of the same ethnicity?

It is natural that I was suspicious of those who would be subject to restraint even if they stayed still, as they attempted to assassinate Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho.

The problem is that this incident should not cause any disruption to the Daegu Industrial Complex project, so we first checked the physical condition of Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho.

“So, what is Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho’s current condition?”

“They say that the assassins were inexperienced and did not sustain serious injuries.”

“Then that’s good. I guess the Daegu Industrial Complex project will proceed without any problems?”

“Yes, you don’t have to worry about that.”

“Just in case, please attach security personnel. Chairman Shin Kyuk-ho will play an important role in the development of the Korean economy.”

“All right.”

The Central Intelligence Agency, upon receiving the order, sent about 50 security personnel to the Lotte Group.

They are all experts specializing in terrorist attacks, trained to offer their bodies as human shields when gunfire rings out somewhere.

It’s a somewhat inhumane mission, but the treatment is certain. What great thing can a guy who can’t even protect my own life do?

He knew that he could only achieve his goal if he used others as shields to survive. He also brought along 300 security guards when he went down to Daegu.

***

“Director of Political Affairs, I think we will have to cancel this Daegu event.”

“What? Explain in detail what happened.”

“The Central Intelligence Agency has contacted us. Someone is trying to take Your Majesty’s life….”

This is the headquarters of the Korean People’s Party.

Park Jeong-ui, the political director, flinched at the whispers of his subordinate.

Recently, a fire incident occurred and Korean society is in turmoil in many ways. The Central Intelligence Agency has strengthened its security in preparation for any eventuality.

The president is scheduled to attend the Daegu Industrial Complex establishment ceremony soon, an event that will be attended by a large number of foreign investors, including some 50 businessmen.

A commemorative event marking another beginning for the Korean chemical industry.

Does it make sense that someone would show up here in such a privileged place, aiming for the president’s neck?

Park Jeong-ui continued the conversation, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

“So, are they heading to Daegu?”

“We don’t know that yet. There is something like that written in the letters the criminals exchanged, but we will have to investigate further to know if this was a prank or an actual planned crime.”

The problem is that you never know where these guys might show their tails.

I wonder if he will show up at the Daegu Industrial Complex Promotion Ceremony.

Concerned about the president’s safety, President Park Chung-hee immediately ordered the event to be stopped.

If that happens, the rats will go back to their holes. Since it’s already come to this, it’s bound to end, right?

But it was too dangerous to send the president to Daegu just to catch a few rats.

Director Kim Hak-young of the Central Intelligence Agency also agreed, and all events were canceled.
