After a moment of confusion with the latest gossip about him - he decided to ignore it. This was not the first time. During his time in America, He repeatedly was rumored to be close to a celebrity or fellow female MMA athlete. He thought the girl was a lesbian, but he was attracted to Jun. The media even occasionally discuss the closeness of the two of them. Of course that was not true. Jun only often treats her as a sparring partner.
Hyeon Jun was popular. He himself realized he was attractive. However, he was actually not very experienced with women. When he was in high school, he attended an all-boys school whose only activity was to fight. It couldn't be helped. Everyone knew that he was a gangster from birth. There was even a legend about him.
When he was brought home from the hospital after birth, his father burned a cigar for him. Then, they said his milk was mixed with alcohol. In addition, there were also those who say that he has been tattooed since he couldn't walk. Of course it was all a lie. The organization likes to exaggerate stories about people. They wanted to create a frightening impression of their young master. Because he was already appointed as the heir of the clan since he was born.
Because of that, Jun could never relax. Every day there was always someone who invited him to a duel. He couldn't lose. So Hyeon Jun practiced many martial arts. It continued until he graduated and finally decided to study martial arts in America. He continued his street fights in the legal ring and became a champion there.
He was not thirsty for victory. He was just so used to being challenged that he was worried that he might weaken if he didn't beat someone for too long.
First love? Hyeon Jun couldn't remember if he had experienced it. He lives in a world full of masculinity and befriends men who smell like tobacco and liquor. If He was really going to date someone, maybe she's a girl involved in the same world as him. The daughter of another gang or a glamorous girl who likes to go to bars to party.
"Why are you silent?" Someone scolds him.
Jun didn't realize, he stared at his colleague's cellphone screen for a long time and repeated reading the gossip over and over again. Though he thought he could ignore it. But again, instead of being bothered by the news. He felt a little happy. Did that mean he had a chance to meet Mi Rae again?
But why did they have to meet? This was just a rumor that would fade with time. And why should he be happy about this? Jun should be angry and busy arguing. He didn't understand his heart right now. Ever since he met her, he had a hard time focusing.
"Young master Jun!" Corn head number two is calling.
"Take your cell phone, I'm going to my room," Hyeon Jun said lazily. He acted like he didn't care. Even though he had intended to continue surfing the internet alone to read news about her and himself.
"Jun, come here for a second!" Lee Dae Woo tugged at his collar. Jun almost tripped over it.
"What?" He shouted as he straightened his shirt.
"Is this news true?" He said as he showed his cell phone with news about him and Mi Rae.
Hyeon Jun was a little confused. Since when was his father interested in celebrities let alone gossip? Even when Jun competed alone he never watched even once. He thinks Jun was trying to betray the organization by using his martial arts skills for legal purposes.
His father was disappointed because he tried to take the straight path instead of becoming a criminal. Whereas other parents would be happy and show off their achievements to all their relatives. It was not normal. But Hyeon Jun had indeed been raised in an abnormal world.
"If it's true why?" Hyeon Jun folded his arms defiantly.
"No way. You're a twenty-six year old virgin. How could you dare to date her?" Lee Dae Woo said, teasing him a little.
"W-I'm not that pitiful, chairman Lee!" Jun said annoyed.
"Before you approached her, you should have practiced with the girls in our group's bar and casino. They are thirsty for your presence and keep asking when you want to visit?" His father chuckled, enjoying his son's discomfort.
So what if he was still a virgin? It has also become a popular fact among gangsters. Jun feels annoyed that his personal problems become public consumption. If he carelessly sleeps with women he would feel worthless. He had to find a real lover if he wanted to do that. Not a one-night stand with an easy girl in a bar that reeks of alcohol. Maybe the situation would be different if he was a virgin at the age of teen. He could have done it with any girl. But he was already twenty-six.
"That's just bullshit, why are you getting involved in this anyway?"
"Because I thought of a mission for you. I think it's time for you to prove that you will be of use to our organization,"
"Hey old man! Really, all the bloody missions that you put on me since I was in high school weren't enough? Don't you remember when you sent me to the North Korean border to smuggle someone? I have a bullet hole in my right arm to remind you!" Jun shouted again emotionally. What kind of parent sends their child on a suicide mission?
"Well, I thought this new mission might be too difficult for you. I'll send Kang Min Soo to your room. Which one? Left or right kidney?"
Hyeon Jun bit his lip. Although he and his father were used to being rude and cursing each other. He knew that his father had a slight disturbance in his brain. He was a cruel man. He wasn't lying when he said he wanted to steal someone's kidney. The thought of waking up one morning with a missing kidney was unpleasant for him.
"Okay what do you want?"
"Good, now you are ready to be a real gangster, Jun?" Dae Woo squeezed his son's shoulders and smiled peacefully.
"I've been unlucky for being born as your child, so what's the difference?" Jun complained again.
"This thing about you and the actress named Song Mi Rae- you might as well make it come true,"
"What?" Hyeon Jun made sure he didn't hear wrong.
"Seduce her and make her your girlfriend. My image will be even better if I have a son who is an MMA champion and future daughter-in-law who was famous actress. It's not difficult, right?" Dae Woo said casually.
Not difficult? Hyeon Jun chose to break through the North Korean border once more instead of a new mission this time.
