Episode 194 Company welfare system (3)
The next morning.
A parent meeting was held at Gangyeong High School.
All participating parents were well-known in their fields.
However, Choo Young-taek’s mother, Cho Young-hee, who has a husband as a chief prosecutor and is the famous daughter of a family of chairman of a mid-sized company, had the strongest say.
“Is this the school? Why is my child coming in after being hit! “I’m a senior in high school next year, so I need to focus on my studies, but I hurt my wrist!”
“S-sorry. “We are investigating the incident, but we understand that it did not happen on school grounds but on the way home from school.”
The vice principal was embarrassed and made an excuse.
But such remarks backfired.
Jo Young-hee pushed back with a more vicious tone.
“It happened on the way home from school, so the school is going to tell me they don’t know about it? Why do we contribute to the school development fund? Don’t you want your students to go to school and come home safely? Then you have to take responsibility for getting home from school.”
“you’re right. So, from now on, we have made a plan to have teachers patrol on the way home from school.”
“They’re saying they’re going to fix the barn after losing the cow. Well, more than that, the student who did this to my child shamelessly left school today. Are they going to keep the perpetrator and the victim in the same class? “Is there any reason to give that student special treatment?”
Let Jo Young-hee raise her voice.
Several parents who followed her like maids joined in.
[He was rumored to be a student with many problems.]
[Why are you protecting a student who has not contributed a penny to the development fund?]
[The puddle is turning cloudy because of one loach! A bold decision is needed for the image of Kangyoung High School.]
[Do we really have to step forward? Shouldn’t the school handle it first?]
It could not be simply dismissed as a parent’s complaint.
Everyone was from a family that was in the top 1%, and if their husbands or even their family members brought it up, they would be in a very difficult situation.
“We will take action through due process. First, we need time to hear both sides of the story.”
“Are you saying my child is lying? Why is there any need to listen to both sides? “There’s even a medical certificate as proof!”
Jo Young-hee presented the medical certificate.
The medical certificate stated that 2 weeks of transposition was required, and it was Jo Young-hee who mobilized her connections to obtain 2 weeks of transposition.
“please wait for a moment. Student Cheon Min-woo’s guardian has decided to come to the school soon.”
“Aww, I’m bored. I guess I’ll get down on my knees and beg for her again. “This isn’t some kind of Buddhist temple, and I don’t know why people in non-existent families like to kneel so much.”
[It arouses sympathy. I just hate it!]
[It’s as if they’re making us into bad people.]
[It seems like a law was created without us knowing that if you kneel you must be forgiven unconditionally.]
The parents all folded their arms and swaggered.
The moment Cheon Min-woo’s guardian came in, it seemed like he had an intention to kill him.
It looked similar to how animals puff out their fur to subdue a steamer.
At that moment, the door opened and Chun Min-woo’s guardian came inside.
[Vice President Kim Min-jae?!]
[uh? Why is he at our school?]
***
How long has it been since you were in high school?
Before I returned, I went to high school, but in this life, I passed the high school level through the qualification exam, so it was like visiting high school for the first time in a long time.
But it didn’t feel that good.
Because the reason for visiting the high school was not a good reason.
Suddenly, the door opened and I entered the room where the parent meeting was being held.
Everyone seemed to recognize me.
Well, people recognize it in foreign countries, but it goes without saying in Korea.
“Nice to meet you. “This is Minjae Kim, who is attending as the guardian of student Minwoo Cheon.”
I bowed my head slightly and said hello.
But are they practicing poses separately here?
What happened was that all the parents were looking at me with their arms folded.
The only thing polite is for people to eat their rice together. Since he is a child of such people, he must be doing such a damn thing.
“Are Vice President Kim Min-jae becoming the guardian of student Cheon Min-woo?”
“Actually, my employee is the guardian, but we are working on a very important project, so I had to participate instead.”
Teachers and parents seemed perplexed.
Well, what kind of conglomerate vice president would visit a school not because of an employee issue, but because of an employee’s family issue?
“Who are Choo Young-taek’s parents?”
“yes? That’s me! “No, it’s me.”
It was Chu Young-taek’s mother who suddenly stood up from her seat.
Perhaps because of his pride, he crossed his arms in an awkward posture.
“Now that the perpetrator and the victim’s guardian have met, shouldn’t they talk about what measures to take?”
“Well said. If you try to use Taewo Group’s power to protect the perpetrator, I won’t stay silent! “I will use all my connections to influence the prosecution and the media!”
“Why do I take the side of the perpetrator? Of course, we are here to help the affected students. “It is also to prevent the offending student from committing secondary offenses.”
“Then are you going to transfer Cheon Min-woo? “I feel like expelling him, but after seeing Vice President Kim Min-jae’s face, I’ll end it with a transfer.”
Are my ears weird?
Or has the meaning of harm and damage been reversed?
“I think there is some misunderstanding. “The perpetrator is Choo Young-taek, and the victim is Cheon Min-woo.”
“Are you trying to manipulate information now? My husband is the chief prosecutor! “What are you talking about when the evidence is so clear?”
It was Choo Young-taek’s mother presenting the medical certificate.
I can’t believe I can gain the upper hand with just a piece of paper like this.
If you want to prepare evidence, you need to prepare at this level.
“This is video evidence, photos, transcripts, and a statement from a classmate that student Choo Young-taek continuously harassed student Cheon Min-woo. First, I will show you photos and videos.”
“yes? “What is that?”
The photos were spread out on the table.
These were photos taken by Captain Kang’s employees while hiding for several months.
While I was preoccupied with the photos, I took out my tablet PC and played the video of the school violence.
“Do you all know who the perpetrator is now? And there is video footage of what happened between the bodyguard and student Choo Young-taek yesterday.”
He was a bodyguard wearing a body camera.
The scene where Choo Young-taek tried to hit Cheon Min-woo on the head and the bodyguard inevitably grabbed Choo Young-taek’s wrist to stop it remained intact.
“Should we formally request that a school violence committee be held? With this level of evidence, it seems like everything from attendance suspension to expulsion is possible. “If you transfer schools on your own, I won’t ask you to hold a school violence committee meeting.”
“Are you telling me to change schools for my child? There is only one year left until the CSAT, but I can’t transfer schools. And wasn’t all this evidence collected illegally?”
“So you want to go to court with us?”
“My husband is the chief prosecutor! And although it is not as big as Taewoo Group, my father’s company is also not small.”
Why is understanding the situation so slow?
Is it because it grew so beautifully?
You have to step down when you have the chance.
It was Chu Young-taek’s mother who kicked away any opportunity to step down, perhaps because she always lived from the position of the superior.
“All right. Then, I will formally request an academic violence committee.”
“Promise that you will follow the decision of the Academic Violence Committee.”
“I promise.”
It was Choo Young-taek’s mother who came out proudly even though she presented evidence.
This was because the parents’ meeting had influence in the composition of the school violence committee.
The school violence committee was composed of teachers, lawyers, and experts, and was organized by the school itself.
Ultimately, this would mean that the school violence committee was formed through personal connections.
In the end, connections were nothing more than interests for mutual benefit.
I had the power to tear apart the network that Choo Young-taek’s family had built in an instant.
And I had no intention of waiting for the school violence committee to take action.
If you touch this type of person clumsily, they will become poisonous for no reason.
When you step on it, you have to make sure to do so to avoid backlash.
***
Same time.
Inside the classroom, Choo Young-taek was arguing with Cheon Min-woo again.
“I guess the security can’t get inside the school? “I would have spent money I didn’t have and hired a bodyguard, so what should I do?”
“… … “I didn’t hire you.”
“How dare you raise your voice and be damned!”
Choo Young-taek raised his fist and tried to hit Cheon Min-woo.
A few quick-witted friends stopped Choo Young-taek.
“what! “Let go of this!”
“Have you heard the news yet? “If you mess with him badly, you’ll be in big trouble.”
“What’s the big deal about messing with a beggar?”
“I heard Vice President Kim Min-jae came to protect that bastard!”
“What vice president?”
“Vice President Kim Min-jae! “The crown prince of Taewoong Group!”
These were not words that would come out of the mouth of a typical high school student.
Choo Young-taek and his friends were ranked based on money and power, and even their families educated them in this way, so this saying came out.
“Vice President Kim Min-jae came as that child’s guardian? why?”
“I don’t know.”
“Isn’t this someone who looks similar?”
Chu Young-taek could not believe it.
The successor to the largest conglomerate in Korea is Cheon Min-woo’s protector?
It was unbelievable, but something happened that I had no choice but to believe.
“uh? “This is Vice President Kim Min-jae!”
Vice Chairman Kim Min-jae suddenly opens the door and comes in.
He walked up to where Cheon Min-woo was sitting and hugged him warmly.
“Minwoo! I heard a lot from my sister. Study hard, and if something like this happens in the future, let me know anytime. “It will be resolved at the Taewoo Group level.”
“Why Vice Chairman?”
“Shh, if we look like we’re close, I won’t be able to treat you badly. “For now, I’m just quietly smiling.”
It was Vice Chairman Kim Min-jae who hugged Cheon Min-woo for a long time.
After the bell rang, he tapped Cheon Min-woo on the shoulder and walked out of the classroom.
“what? Do you really know Vice Chairman Kim Min-jae?”
“uh? … uh.”
“Are you guys wagging your tail at Chun Min-woo? “What does this bastard say?”
It was Choo Young-taek, who clenched his fist.
But his fist failed to reach Cheon Min-woo.
Since I saw Vice Chairman Kim Min-jae right in front of me, I could no longer treat Cheon Min-woo carelessly.

After visiting the school.
I went straight to Captain Kang’s office and told him what had happened at the parents’ meeting.
“We will immediately begin investigating the members of the School Violence Committee.”
“The group planning office will also move, so please cooperate well. ah! And what happened to what I ordered?”
“For that problem, I decided to get help from Myeongdong. “It is said that there are quite a few gangsters from Kangyoung High School in Myeongdong.”
Students tended not to be afraid of adults.
This tendency was especially evident in the case of delinquent students, and they had something else to fear.
Elementary school students were always afraid of their middle school older brothers.
Middle school students were afraid of high school students, and second-year high school students were afraid of third-year students or recently graduated seniors.
“Make sure to dry off the blood. “To the point where I begged to transfer to another school.”
“I will make it happen within a week.”
“And you said Choo Young-taek’s father is a chief prosecutor, right? Move that top line and put pressure on it.”
“I will.”
It was just the beginning.
I plan to make Choo Young-taek and his parents beg Cheon Min-woo to save their lives.
