CEO Kang-nim, I Really Want to Quit!
#6:“Let’s Not Deny It, Shall We?”
#6: “Let’s Not Deny It, Shall We?”
(Seo-jin storms in, red-faced and panicked. Min-jae, as always, is calm and unbothered, sipping his coffee like nothing happened.)
Yoon Seo-jin
CEO Kang!
We need to talk! Urgently!
Kang Min-jae
If it’s about the quarterly report, I already reviewed it.
Yoon Seo-jin
Not the report—THE RUMOR.
The dating scandal!! The article!!
Me?? And you?!?
Kang Min-jae
You looked good in the photo.
Very natural smile.
(Seo-jin blinks rapidly, brain buffering.)
Yoon Seo-jin
That’s not the point!
People think I’m your… girlfriend!
Kang Min-jae
And?
Should we release a better photo?
Yoon Seo-jin
W-what?? Are you seriously not denying it?
Kang Min-jae
Did I say I was dating you?
No.
Did I say I’m not?
…Also no.
Yoon Seo-jin
CEO Kang, you’re making this worse!
Your mom called me last night and said,
"Finally, you’re joining the family."
Kang Min-jae
She’s quite fast when she likes someone.
(Pause. He glances at her.)
Kang Min-jae
And she likes you.
(Seo-jin's face turns bright pink.)
Yoon Seo-jin
This is not happening.
I just wanted to quit.
Q.U.I.T.
Kang Min-jae
You're very bad at quitting.
But you're quite good at being noticed.
(He walks past her, pauses at the door, then looks over his shoulder.)
Kang Min-jae
Lunch?
You’re already the star of the company today.
Might as well give the employees something to really talk about.
(He walks off. Seo-jin nearly collapses into her chair, dramatically fanning herself.)
Yoon Seo-jin
What kind of resignation plan turns into…
a love plot twist!?
Ms. Aether
Hope you like it 🌹
