Yeoju City Point
Name: Kim Yeo-ju Age: 27 years old
My father passed away when I was young.
With the disappearance of the head of the household, the family's fortunes gradually fell to rock bottom, and the household's circumstances became increasingly difficult.
I've felt that way since I was little. After my father passed away, we couldn't eat properly or wear proper clothes, so I wanted to make sure my mother didn't have to suffer.
엄마
“Hey, what do you want to eat?”
김여주(5살)
“Ahning, I like eating rice with Neneung and Gyerang Hurai the best!”
엄마
"really?"
김여주(5살)
"yes!!"
김여주(5살)
“Mom!! Look at me, I eat so well!!”
엄마
“Our heroine really eats well~”
So I decided to be filial to my mother.
I will definitely get into a good university and succeed so that I can make my mom happy.
But that resolution crumbled in an instant.
김여주(17살)
“I came back from school!!”
김여진
“Sister!! Mom.. Mom..”
김여주(17살)
“Huh? Why, Mom?”
김여진
“Mom collapsed.”
김여주(17살)
"what????"
I reported it immediately and was taken to the hospital, but the report was late, so the golden time was missed.
김여주(17살)
“You!! Why didn’t you report it right away?!!!”
김여주(17살)
“Why did you wait for me like an idiot!!!”
김여진
“There’s no phone!!”
김여진
“I was frustrated too!!”
Because of our family circumstances, we didn't have a phone.
김여주(17살)
"ah.."
It's truly a miserable reality.
I hated the reality that if you're poor, you can't even report it.
I started working part-time from then on
From convenience store part-time job
김여주
“It’s 4,700 won.”
취객
“Hey, how old are you!!!!”
김여주
"yes?"
취객
“How old are you and you’re already working part-time!!!!!”
손님
“One iced Americano please?”
김여주
“Yes, sir. Your iced Americano is 3,000 won.”
Even working part-time at a restaurant
There really isn't a single part-time job I haven't done.
But even more money was needed
Yejin's tuition, living expenses, and her mother's hospital bills
There was no place where money didn't go.
김여진
“Sister, can I buy this?”
김여주
“What is this?”
김여진
“Just cosmetics.. “
김여주
“What kind of cosmetics does a student need?”
김여주
“Just apply the skin lotion.”
김여주
“Or… should I buy you some sunscreen?”
김여주
“You know living expenses are tight this month.. “
김여진
"it's okay.."
bang!!!
김여주
“Hey!! Kim Yeo-jin!! My sister told me not to slam the door!!!”
김여진
“What does my sister know!!!!!”
I'm at an age where I want to use cosmetics and wear pretty clothes, but I had to worry about living expenses and hospital bills.
As soon as he became an adult, he moved to Seoul to earn more money.
The atmosphere in Seoul was really nice.
I walked down the street and looked around to see what part-time jobs there were.
Advertisements stuck on utility poles
김여주
“1 million won..?”
I was shaken
Is this really right? Is this okay to do?
I couldn't slow down any longer at the mention of 1 million won.
I worked at that very bar.
사장
“Welcome~”
사장
“How did you come?”
김여주
“I...I came after seeing the flyer..”
사장
“Oh, I have a guest right now, so I’ll work on it.”
김여주
“Huh? Right now?”
사장
“I just give my body and usually finish within 2 hours, so I can get the money from my partner.”
김여주
"ah.."
사장
“Huh? What are you doing? Come in quickly.”
사장
“Ah~ Change into the clothes over there~”
She wears shameful clothes and offers her body to the man who calls himself a guest.
I was very embarrassed
손님
“Hey~ You look great~”
손님
“Cry beautifully~”
김여주
“Huff huff huff huff huff”
손님
“Hey~ You did well?”
손님
“Here’s a bonus~ Next time you come, do it with me too~”
It was embarrassing, but it was the only way to make a lot of money.
As I continued to do this shameful and painful thing, I became accustomed to it.
김여주
“Boss, how many people are there today?”
사장
“There are five people today.”
김여주
"All right"
사장
“There’s a rumor going around that you’re good at it~”
사장
“Thanks to you, our sales keep increasing~”
김여주
“Oh, yes”
I was barely able to make ends meet by working hard to cover my younger sibling's living expenses, my mother's hospital bills, and my own.
The story goes that the chairman of a famous company is coming to this ordinary, ordinary bar.
사장
“Lady, you really must not make any mistakes today.”
사장
“The person coming today is a great person, isn’t he?”
사장
“You do better.”
사장
“Do you understand what I mean?”
김여주
"yes"
Tiring
사장
“Oh my, hello, Chairman!!”
전정국
“Hey, bring the most expensive alcohol to my room.”
사장
“Okay, I understand.”
전정국
"hey"
김여주
“..”
전정국
“Hey, can’t you hear me?”
김여주
“Oh, yes, are you talking about that?”
전정국
“Hey, who else is there besides you?”
He's annoyingly childish and speaks informally to me.
But I endured it because this kind of thing happens often.
김여주
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
전정국
“You said you were that good at sex?”
전정국
“Want to do it with me?”
전정국
“I have a lot of money.”
전정국
“I can give you more than you want.”
김여주
..
전정국
“Why? Are you embarrassed?”
no
It wasn't because I was embarrassed, but because it was the first time I'd seen a kid talk so confidently, and I was tempted to give him as much money as he wanted.
김여주
"no"
전정국
"let's go"
김여주
“Huh? Where..”
전정국
“Our house”
전정국
“I don’t do anything unless it’s my house.”
전정국
“It’s dirty here.”
김여주
"ah.."
The young man took me away. The boss saw me being dragged away and shouted, "Where are you going?" Then, a person who appeared to be the young man's secretary gave the boss money and said she would take me away.
So I came into the house of a young man whose name I didn't know and whose age I didn't know, and started working there.
