Chapter 140
Side: Yoo Jin-seok
Yoo Jin-seok was enjoying a rare peaceful day with his friend Shin Ji-woon. With the war over, they had been given mandatory leave by the Association, though technically, Yoo Jin-seok could take breaks whenever he pleased.
Shin Ji-woon chewed noisily on a dried squid leg he’d bought for 12,000 won at a Ma-Ket.
"That bastard Ha Jung-seok sure got lucky. Scored big thanks to that Whitey, and now he’s gone and cut her off from politics before she could even step into the field."
Still, there was a nagging worry in the back of his mind: was Ha Jung-seok planning to use Eun-ha and then discard her, like tosagupyeong—slaughtering the dog after the hunt? On the bright side, being tied to the Baekhwa Sect might actually shield her from greater hardships.
"She said she’s fine with it, so what can I do? Honestly, getting famous at such a young age is exhausting."
"You’d know, wouldn’t you?" Ji-woon quipped.
"If Eun-ha officially becomes a hunter, foreign countries won’t let her go. Hell, with her looks, she’s already got fans abroad."
Eun-ha’s being a girl only made things more complicated. In Korea, she already had a fan club, Eunha-dan, and even Eunha Moms who adored her. Come to think of it, the Eunha Moms also called her "Whitey."
Overseas, especially in Japan, some people were pushing for her "integration" into their ranks, though Shinohara Yuzuki, the de facto power in Japan, had remained silent on the matter. Unlike the prime minister, Shinohara seemed to have no clear stance, but who could really tell what she was thinking?
"Whitey’s got that unique mix of Eastern and Western features. She gives off a vibe that appeals everywhere."
"...You’re not thinking what I think you’re thinking, are you?"
