"What's the latest update on that Thai Dog?"
You recline in your office chair, casually crossing your legs on the table. Despite your relaxed posture, an air of authority surrounds you.
Your secretary, Kate Willson, visibly shivers, her legs trembling in response to your commanding tone. She clutches her tablet close to her chest.
Three years ago, Kate was a twenty-year-old orphan searching for a promising internship to complement her college coursework. Her surname and facial features were enough to distinguish that she was not Korean, her slightly tan skin with big amber eyes and pointed nose always complemented her American beauty.
She hadn't been a top student; her academic records were darker than the night sky. Rejection after rejection came from nearly every company in Seoul, unimpressed by her lackluster grades.
Korea was the country where almost every company looked for the 'elites'. The demand for the 'good' scorer students and employees was more than the mediocre one. Hence, mediocre scorers like Kate Wilson often had to suffer surviving in such country until...
She stumbled upon your company, which was often considered the underdog among Seoul's corporate giants.
Kate initially misunderstood your company, thinking of it as an underperformer. With no other options left, she decided to apply for a job at WY Weaponry.
Like most companies, yours had a rigorous selection process. However, it stood out for its strictness. Unlike other firms, you didn't want to judge employees solely based on their high school grades or college percentages. You believed that such criteria often masked a person's true potential, stifling their inner drive.
To find their genuine inner drive and potential, your company conducted a one hour written test series for the willing employees, upon passing them, the employees were straight driven to the interviews taken by Woo-Hyun, the current CO-CEO of the WY weaponry.
The mediocre Kate Wilson stood appreciably in your conducted exam; her exam showed her frustration of her being rejected by every company.
This highlighted a crucial lesson: mediocrity in academics doesn't always equate to failure. Hard work can be a driving force at any stage in life.
It has been three years since she successfully cleared the interviews and assumed the role of the most trusted and reliable secretary you've ever had.
But, years of sincerity and innocence doesn't mean she could get used to your mood swings, apparently, you still manage to scare off that poor girl. Like today...
A mere week ago, you returned from the hospital, your aura a storm of anger. As expected, your relentless work ethic has pushed all the employees at WY Weaponry to their limits. You'd even kept late hours in the office alongside them.
The reason for this late-night hustle was a deal you were finalizing with some local Thai thugs.
They made an unusual request, demanding fifty M-16 rifles. The fact that the other weapon dealers in Seoul had turned them down birthed a Doubt within you.
