The newsroom was a whirlwind of chaos the moment Taehyung arrived that morning. Reporters dashed around, producers were shouting orders, and the interns looked slightly panicked as they scrambled to keep up. Taehyung had barely set down his bag before a loud call echoed from Mrs. Choi's office.

"Kim Taehyung!" Her voice had a mix of urgency and excitement that made Taehyung's stomach flip. He hurried down the hall, wondering what had his normally composed boss in such a flurry.

He stepped into Mrs. Choi's office to find her practically vibrating wiht energy. Papers and files were scattered across her desk, her computer screen was filled with open tabs, and she was sipping coffee from a mug that looked suspiciously like it had been refilled a few too many times that morning. Her eyes were gleaming with excitement as she gestured for him to take a seat, nearly spilling her coffee in the process.

"Taehyung," she began, but quickly set her mug down when it threatened to slosh over. She leaned forward, her expression a mix of awe and disblief, "I need you to listen very carefully. We've just received confirmation from Jeon Jeongguk's team."

At the mention of Jeongguk's name, Taehyung's eyes widened, the room seeming to go still around him. Jeon Jeongguk-one of Korea's youngest and most influential businessmen. His every move was analyzed, his business decisions groundbreaking. What makes him most elusive is his completelyprivate self. And now, he was coming here? That too interview?

Mrs. Choi leaned in even closer, her fingers tapping rapidly on her desk as if she couldn't contain her excitement. "He's agreed to an interview. With us." She paused, barely catching her breath before practically bouncing in her chair. "And you're going to be the one to do it!"

She clapped her hands together, looking at him with a grin, "This is huge, Taehyung! Monstrous! Gigantic!" she emphasized, struggling to find words grand enough for the occasion. "Can you believe it?"

Taehyung blinked, his mind racing with questions. "I-when? When did they confirm?"

She frantically shuffled through the mess of papers on her desk, muttering under her breath. "Ah, where'sthat email? Or was it a call? No, it was an email! Or maybe..." She glanced around, checking under her coffee mug before finally finding the printout. "Aha! Here it is!"

Her excitement was almost contagious as she waved the paper happily, though it was mostly covered in coffee stains, "They said he wants the interview this evening-yes, this evening!"

Taehyung tried to keep his expression steady, but he could feel his pulse racing. An interview with Jeon Jeongguk, and on such short notice? Mrs. Choi noticed his look and seemed to snap back into her version of composure

"Taehyung, I know it's sudden," she said, trying to calm herself by adjusting her slightly crooked glasses. "But this is exactly the type of challenge you were born for. You have that... that calm, unshakable charm."

She leaned back in her chair, trying to look dignified but quickly fidgeting as she realized her coffee was looked at him with wide, hopeful eyes. "Just think, Taehyung. Your face... his face... the interview of the year. Our newsroom is going to make history."

He bit back a smile at her uncharacteristically clumsy enthusiasm. "I'll be ready, Mrs. Choi. Promise."

"Good!" she said, breathing a deep, exaggerated sigh of relief. "And just make sure you're... well, you know, extra charming." She added this with a slight wag of her finger, then seemed to blush as she realized howstrange that sounded. "Not that you're not already! Just... you know what I mean!"
