"When We Met"

Jin entered the luxurious lobby of CROWN, his footsteps echoing softly on the marble floor. The grandeur of the place, with its elegant decor and bustling activity, provided a brief distraction from the weight of his worries.

Jin quickly made his way inside, changing into his uniform with practiced speed. He then headed to the kitchen, where, at this early hour, no one else had arrived yet.

Jin finished his preparations in the kitchen and received a breakfast order from a VVIP GOLDEN Room. Seeing that the head chef hadn't arrived yet, he decided to handle the cooking himself. Despite the early hour and his fatigue, Jin quickly and efficiently prepared the meal, focusing on delivering quality service.

After preparing the breakfast, Jin instructed the staff, "Please deliver this to the guest in the VVIP GOLDEN Room."

Shortly after the delivery, the head chef and the rest of the staff arrived. They all began working together. After a while, a call came from the head office, summoning all the chefs to the Director's office.

Suddenly, all the chefs were summoned to the Director's office. The head chef, visibly anxious, began to scold the junior chefs angrily, his frustration evident.

"Did someone make a mistake?" he demanded. "Step forward and admit your fault quietly, or it will be very bad for all of you."

The junior chefs exchanged worried glances, Jin, visibly anxious, bowed his head and stepped forward.

"Head chef, The breakfast order from the VVIP GOLDEN Room..."

The head chef's eyes narrowed as he listened to Jin. The tension in the room was palpable, each chef bracing for the director's reaction.

"What happened with the order?" the head chef demanded, his tone still sharp.

Jin took a deep breath before responding. "I handled the preparation and delivery myself because you weren't here yet. I wanted to ensure it was done on time."

Hearing this, the head chef's anger intensified.

"Have you lost your mind? What was the need for you to take the order from the VVIP Golden Room? You should have said that the chef was unavailable."

"Jin, you've made a huge mistake. Now you're out of a job."

The head chef stood in the Director's office, lined up with all the junior staff. Jin stood at the very end of the line, his heart pounding with anxiety. He couldn't shake the fear that he might lose his job. Thoughts of his mother in the hospital, the mounting household expenses, and the overwhelming debt weighed heavily on his mind. Each passing second felt like an eternity as Jin's worry deepened, knowing how much was at stake if things went wrong.

Just then, KIM'S GROUP's Chairwoman, Mrs. Kim, entered the room, followed closely by Head Director Kim Namjoon and Director Kim Jungkook. The atmosphere grew even more tense as the three powerful figures walked in, their presence commanding immediate respect and attention.
