Chapter 17 (2) - The Mysterious Art Museum
The next day, 9:40 a.m. in front of MG Electronics headquarters.
I came to Yeouido for the first time.
Unless you're a celebrity, a politician, or someone who works here, there's only one reason to visit Yeouido. Cherry blossom festival. But I've never been to a cherry blossom festival in my life. I didn't have the luxury.
I took the bus that came to Yeouido by searching the internet and arrived a little early. I looked up at the MG Electronics headquarters building that seemed to pierce the sky. I feel overwhelmed just by looking at the building.
Then, someone called me from behind.
"Mr. Ban Jeong-hoon?"
I was surprised by the sudden appearance of my name and turned around. Lee Soo-young, who was on her way to work, was wearing a suit, a coat, and a bag.
"Hello."
"Ah, you came early."
"I happened to come a little early."
"That's a good habit. Well, shall we go in together?"
Lee Soo-young got my temporary pass from the information center and said as we got on the elevator.
Monica, who was wearing a red suit and drinking coffee by the window, saw me and smiled.
"Do you speak English?"
What, you only spoke Italian.
"Yes, I do."
"Good, sit down. Coffee?"
"No, I'm fine."
I sat down on the sofa next to Lee Soo-young and straightened my back. I can't help but be nervous because there's a huge amount of money at stake depending on what I do now.
Monica went to the desk and brought two papers. I swallowed my saliva as I saw the papers she was bringing from afar.
One is the picture I submitted to the contest, and the other is the portrait I drew.
Monica laid the two papers in front of me and looked at me sharply and said.
"Let me be blunt, I can't believe that these two pictures are by the same painter."
