Check Mate
15. The moment faith becomes truth
Ting ting- tiring-
박지민
"Are you here, sir?"
최우현
"...Jimin"
박지민
"Yes, sir"
최우현
"...I'm sorry, Jimin. I'm sorry."
박지민
"Huh? What are you talking about all of a sudden..."
최우현
"Just... I'm so sorry. The gift I was going to give you when you became an adult... I can't give it to you anymore."
박지민
"Huh? Why are you crying, mister? It's okay. Now, I just like being a mister. No, that's not what I wanted to live here for in the first place."
박지민
"So don't cry, mister. I'm okay."
최우현
"...Jimin, the gift I wanted to give you...was revenge. Revenge that was right. Revenge on your father, who tormented you countless times. Yes, in a word, your father's death."
최우현
"But... I can't do that anymore. All of this happened because of my boss, my father. No, no. It was I who was ordered to kill your mother and you. I was the root of all this."
최우현
"Now...what should I do? This sin of destroying the peace of a family...Can I end it all with my death? How can I protect your mother...my subordinate...my son?"
Thump- thump-
최우현
"Young Nation..."
After killing the boss, it was a name I never once tried to remember. Young Nation. The organization, having lost its boss and its members, was meaningless, but the website he'd created while alive still remained.
최우현
"At that time, Park Mu-jin's position was the action captain, so you can look for him as a delinquent tax manager."

최우현
"Password, password..."
-1013.
Tiring-
최우현
"....Young Nation, I thought it was an incredibly difficult organization back then, but it wasn't. It was the founding day of an organization whose password was revealed to anyone."
최우현
"Park Mu-jin...Park Mu-jin...Uh, he's here."
Park Mu-jin. Chief of Staff for the Position and Collection Management. As of 2002, he was 40 years old. His spouse, Kim Young-eun, is 39 years old. His address is 11, Alyeon 3-gil, XX-si, XX-do. After leaving the organization, he led an extraordinary life, which he continues to do as of 2019.
최우현
"...Huh? Why...are the records up to now being recorded?"
최우현
"Obviously... Young Nation disappeared after the boss died. But... who dares to continue this site..?"
Tiring- Tiring-
최우현
"[Uh, hello.]"
이수현
"Woohyun, I found what you asked for. The address is the same as before. I'll send the file here."
최우현
"[Oh, okay. You worked hard. Take a break.]"
이수현
"[Okay, good work]"
Thump-
최우현
"...Yeah, it's probably nothing. Just... someone might have typed it in while passing by because they were bored. The Young Nation members have definitely... dispersed. Yeah. People who were once members... probably just remembered it. Let's... not worry about it too much."
최우현
"You said the address was the same as before, so I'll have to go there and check it out myself."

Yes, hello, this is Amif.

Uh.. Actually, since I'm rewriting the story, you might not understand the hints(?) I posted before. So, even though you didn't ask, I'm also confused.. So, I'm going to try to organize it.
Woo-hyun meets the boss by chance on the street and is adopted by him -> He meets the boss's biological son, Su-hyun, and they become friends and family. He takes great care of and loves the bosses, Woo-hyun and Su-hyun -> Mu-jin is tricked into joining the organization by an acquaintance (Lee Jang-hyuk), with whom he had been close.
-> Jang Hyuk tells Mujin to work here for his wife and unborn child (Ji-min). Mujin has no choice but to accept -> However, Mujin has a weak nature and is not good at killing people, so he continues to free members of the opposing organization.
-> Jang Hyuk, annoyed by this, tells his boss to order Woo Hyun to kill Mu Jin's wife -> However, as it was Woo Hyun's first mission, he failed to kill her and only wounded her -> An enraged Mu Jin shoots Jang Hyuk to death
-> Boss tries to kill both Mujin and Janghyuk -> But Soohyun stops him and Mujin's life is saved -> Boss gets angry and orders Woohyun to kill Soohyun -> Soohyun kills Boss and Young Nation disappears at the same time.
->Jimin meets Woohyun while wandering the streets amidst violence.

Okay, yeah. That's what happened. It's a bit complicated, right?? Hehe. Okay.
