Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 201

Chapter Ghost of Gokseong

[Breaking News] Amakusa Re-enters Korea

…No comment on questions about whether he re-entered at the Korean government’s request….

It was around the time when Korea was in an uproar over Amakusa Kazuki’s interview saying he would ‘wait for naturalization approval’ after his re-entry.

In front of the Hyeonak Building.

Gru, who got out of the car, shook her head at Sitter who was trying to take out her bicycle.

“I’m not gonna ride it at the company anymore.”

Gru’s expression was completely sulky as she said this.

Sitter held back her laughter and cupped the child’s cheeks.

“Gru. Did you get caught again?”

Nod nod.

“Oh my, our baby. I see. So you don’t want to ride your bicycle anymore?”

When Sitter listened to her story affectionately, Gru chattered away with an upset face.

“20 kilometers is too slow… Dan and Ser both said they don’t want to go around with me because I’m slow. Only Daddy keeps saying it’s enough.”

“The older brothers were mean. They should go around with our Gru.”

Gru glared fiercely and said primly.

“The bad one is Daddy. 20 kilometers is bad. Daddy doesn’t go around at 20 kilometers either.”

“You’re right. Daddy was bad.”

“Yes.”

After Gru huffed and puffed to her heart’s content, Sitter patted her bottom saying they should hurry inside.

“You’re meeting Master today, right? He might be waiting, so let’s hurry inside.”

“Oh, right!”

It had been a long time since she met Master, ever since he returned to Japan due to the naturalization issue.

Gru broke into a bright smile.

The situation had changed dramatically so that she no longer had to cruelly abandon Master now that he was getting naturalized.

‘I barely managed to avoid becoming an evil Gru.’

As soon as Gru trotted into the revolving door of the Hyeonak Building, welcoming voices from the reception desk could be heard.

“Gru Gru!”

“Did kindergarten end early today?”

“Hello! Yes. I didn’t have ballet today.”

“Oh, the baby does ballet at kindergarten too.”

“You’ll show the older sisters next time too, right?”

“Yes!”

Gru nodded proudly.

She was enjoying the touch of the older sisters who were petting her, saying she was cute.

Suddenly.

His gaze went beyond the corridor where the elevator was located.

One entire wall was made of floor-to-ceiling windows, where you could see the garden trees that surrounded the company building…

“A person?”

A jet-black head was visible next to the garden trees.

Crouched on the ground, then rubbing their eyes and getting up – no matter how you looked at it, it was a homeless person.

Han Gru tilted her head curiously while gazing beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows.

There were often homeless people begging in front of the main gate, but that hair looked too well-maintained, without a trace of grease or dandruff.

‘A new homeless person?’

While Sitter was saying goodbye and leaving, Han Gru secretly followed behind with quick little steps.

Han Gru avoided people’s gazes and went around the building to find the new homeless person.

“…?”

And what she discovered was a completely unexpected person.

* * *

At that moment, On Jurim was deeply absorbed in reading a chapter titled ‘Why Does My Child Pick Up These Things?’ from a childcare book.

The main point was that this was natural behavior arising from a child’s development and learning process, and that you should fully satisfy their curiosity and desire to explore, while understanding their interests and thoughts.

His little daughter somehow knew this, and as soon as he finished reading the chapter, she immediately went and picked up something strange again.

Practical application right after learning – even fast progress could be a problem.

“Still, isn’t this going too far?”

When On Jurim slowly turned his eyes to look, the person who had been “picked up” by Han Gru today gasped and inhaled sharply.

“On Gru.”

“Yeeees.”

“I understand the curiosity and desire to explore, but couldn’t you not bring home homeless people? An old man who was living on the streets is a bit much. It’s hard for daddy to accept.”

“He’s not homeless!”

“I-I’m PD Hwang Uncheol!”

Han Gru and PD Hwang spoke at the same time.

“PD?”

“Y-yes.”

Did he mean former PD?

Why would a middle-aged man with a decent job be sleeping rough and disheveled behind someone else’s company?

In the morning, he had been sleeping rough in front of the company, but when he saw my face, he was startled and quickly ran away to the back of the building – I thought his reaction was quite strange.

Hmm. When On Jurim made steady eye contact, Hwang Wuncheol quickly turned his head this way and that to avoid it.

He seemed to have a lot of guilty conscience.

“He is homeless.”

On Jurim was about to kindly inform Han Gru that a man living on the streets is called a ‘homeless person.’

Slam!

Suddenly, the door to the Guild Leader’s Office opened.

“On-chan! Where is Gru-chan… Eh?”

It was Kazuki.

He was happy to see Gru, but when he spotted Hwang Wuncheol, his eyes widened.

“PD-san! You came to pick me up already? Korea is incredibly fast~”

“Why is Hunter Amakusa here…!”

PD Hwang also looked at Kazuki with a surprised expression.

And On Jurim, furrowing his brow, looked back and forth between PD Hwang, his daughter, and Amakusa Kazuki.

A former PD who’s now homeless, the daughter who brought him home, and a foreigner who just returned to the country?

It was a completely incomprehensible relationship chart.

He pressed his dizzy forehead firmly, then lifted his head and asked.

“Can someone please explain this properly?”

* * *

Swoosh, a business card was politely extended with both hands.

On Jurim took the business card and read the name.

[NTV PD Hwang Wuncheol]

“I greeted you once before when I came for an interview. You might not remember, but I also directed the variety show ‘World Mart,’ and ‘Various Family Lives’ that Wuju filmed and won an award for was also my…”

“Ah.”

On Jurim recalled the drama that Gru had been watching religiously, saying Wuju was in it.

It had cleverly portrayed various family stories, receiving great reactions from critics as well as tremendous viewership ratings.

“I know. The children told me you’re an amazing person. I’m On Jurim from Hyeonak.”

At this, PD Hwang’s face immediately lit up with a smile.

“The kids talked about me?”

“They did. But what brings such an amazing PD to sleep rough in front of our company today?”

“Ah… Aah…”

PD Hwang, instantly at a loss for words, gulped nervously.

As his hesitation dragged on, On Jurim turned his gaze to Kazuki.

“How do you know our company’s homeless person?”

“Ho, homeless person…”

It must have been a critical hit, as PD Hwang looked shocked.

Meanwhile, Kazuki just smiled brightly and answered the question.

“When I came to Korea last time, we both had political issues, right? They said I had to come without misunderstandings, so I had a variety show scheduled with this PD.”

When Kazuki first visited Korea, it was during a time when Japan was starting to put pressure on Korea.

For that reason, the Japanese government kept trying to dissuade Kazuki from visiting Korea. In such a situation, if Amakusa Kazuki decided to go to Korea, it might send conflicting signals to Korea.

But they couldn’t completely stop that eccentric either.

In the end, it meant they reached an agreement with the justification that ‘he came to Korea due to a scheduled Korean variety show commitment.’

“Was the mass production of the Amakusa Series 1st Generation Tsurugi also part of the agreement?”

“Mm-hmm.”

“What have you decided to do now?”

“Hmm, it’ll work out somehow.”

Kazuki laughed heartily as he spoke.

‘That’s a completely untrustworthy answer…’

For a hunter of Amakusa Kazuki’s caliber, whatever he did tended to come with many problems.

Moreover, since he had even naturalized, there would be more than just one or two issues to handle.

It wasn’t his concern, but somehow the current Kazuki seemed like a child left by the water’s edge, and just as he was about to ask again.

PD Hwang continued speaking while bowing obsequiously.

“It was a sudden proposal and the schedule was tight, but we rarely get the chance to work with Hunter Amakusa, don’t we? We had to secure it even if we had to push ourselves.”

PD Hwang, who had said that, suddenly let out a deep sigh.

“But just when we had finished planning everything and were waiting, Hunter Amakusa’s naturalization issue came up… I was really anxious about what would happen, but I’m so relieved it worked out well.”

They had hurriedly arranged the schedule, but when Kazuki was suddenly held back in Japan, how much they had worried that everything would fall through.

To the Doan Group that had resolved the SSPED matter, he wanted to express infinite gratitude not just as a Korean, but as a PD as well.

“I understand the situation with Kazuki. Then what about Gru?”

“Ah.”

At the blunt question, PD Hwang rolled his eyes for a moment before straightening his back.

“Ahem, hmm. Guild Master On!”

And then he suddenly knelt down.

Oh, Kazuki let out an exclamation with interested eyes.

“The reason I even slept rough in front of the company is because I have something to ask you.”

He had even resorted to sleeping rough in front of the company because he wanted to have this one conversation. No matter how scary On Jurim was, he couldn’t back down now.

“May I work with your daughter?! I will take perfect responsibility so she won’t feel any difficulties whatsoever!”

“…”

Just who was taking responsibility for what exactly?

Jurim stared at the kneeling middle-aged man like he was looking at a bug.
