“Requests are still coming in from our overseas allies.” (Chief Secretary) “Oh, is that so?” (President) A certain man relaxedly leaned back in his luxurious chair. In front of him sat a huge desk that seemed a wee bit unnecessary, in terms of actual usefulness, and behind the luxurious chair he had parked his butt on, one could see the …

“Well, it’s not a big deal.” (Choi Jung-Hoon) “It’s always been ‘not’ a big deal.” (Yi Ji-Hyuk) “No, really.
