Chapter 70.2
Side Story 1 (2)
So-young has accumulated decent work experience and results at CH Electronics, and getting married did not mean that she had any immediate thoughts on a child. Therefore, Taekyung decided that now is the right time to pursue the MBA. There were several excellent programs in Korea, but from his point of view, Korea was not the only answer.
MBA Master of Business Administration
[Since you're preparing, wouldn't it be better to do it now?]
[That's true, but it's a little sudden]
At first, So-young was embarrassed by Taekyung's proposal. It was not only absurd to prepare for the MBA and marriage in earnest, and even if she passed, she did not intend to stay away from Taekyung. No matter how much she dreamed of having an MBA, it was never enough to give up her honeymoon with him.
[But for you Is it okay if I leave alone?]
[Me?"]
Taekyung frowned as if she were saying something ridiculous.
[I've thought about everything, so don't worry about useless things and think about what's best.]
So-young, persuaded by Taekyung's confidence, eventually began to seriously consider his proposal.
There were several opportunities to study abroad before, but every time So-young hesitated and missed the timing. This was because of her insufficient confidence.

However, after starting a relationship with Taekyung, So-young is now quite confident in herself thanks to the endless trust and support he gave. His solid faith was a significant driving force for her to take on new challenges.
[He didn't force you to do it, and you're willing to study, right?]
[Yes, father. I had a lot of worries ahead of my wedding, I thought it would be impossible to fulfill my dream unless it was now. I decided after talking to Taekyung a lot.]
[Do you think I need to talk about the decision made by a grown-up adult?]
So-young's parents were in a position to support whatever choice she made, but it was unclear whether Vice Chairman Cha would do the same. This was because he expressed a strong desire for grandchildren from the moment the two expressed their intention to marry.
[You can study abroad if you want, I won't mind.]
Contrary to So-young's concerns, Vice Chairman Cha did not show any signs of discomfort when she expressed her desire to study.
[This isn't like the past where patriarchy was a thing. Since you don't have children, it's better to start when you're a year younger.]
[Thank you, father.]
[Then what are you going to do, Tae Kyung? Are you okay to send her alone?]
[Of course.]
Taekyung smiled brightly, facing Vice Chairman Cha.
[I have to look after Soyoung.]
What?]
I'm thinking of quitting my job.]
[Hey You punk!]
Vice-Chairman Cha, who was always favorable to So-young's study, was shocked at once. Soyoung also looked at Taekyung in surprise. It must have been such a haphazard declaration of my own plan, which he had been advocating for. However, Taekyung was confident this time as well.
[Thanks to So-young, I stayed longer in the company that I wanted to quit, anyway. You probably didn't know, right?]
[That punk is just!]
[I've been lying low for years and doing everything you told me to do. So please let me live the life I want even now.]
[Taekyung!]
Only after such a fuss did Vice Chairman Cha and Taekyung find a compromise. Taekyung was entrusted as the center director of the CH Electronics New York Center, which is scheduled to be established next year.
To strengthen its position as a global company, CH Electronics established a new general center in New York. The center, which completely excludes production functions and concentrates on human resources, marketing, social contribution, and integrated platform operation, set a policy to guarantee maximum autonomy, and the members of the organization were also scheduled to scout experts from various industries such as IT, fashion, and FMCG.

Compared to the successors of large Korean companies staying in key positions at the headquarters and cultivating their management skills, Taekyung's issuance to New York was indeed an unprecedented move. However, he seemed to be more motivated to operate overseas branches than the boring headquarters.
[Didn't you aim for this situation from the beginning? Because of your father's personality, there's no way he'll be able to send you abroad..]
[What are you talking about? My dream is to take care of you with all my might.]
Tae-kyung denied So-young's doubts, but she couldn't shake off the idea that he might have drawn a big picture from the beginning for some reason.
However, whatever Taekyung intended, Soyoung did not deny her excitement. This was because if she passed the MBA program safely, she would be given a completely different life.
