The Third-Gen Chaebol Becomes a Genius Actor - Chapter 154: 80th Anniversary Volunteer Service

Chapter 154 < 80th Anniversary Volunteer Service >

The brothers, who had met with Baek Seo-jun briefly, headed to Chairman Yoo’s mansion. They nodded their heads to the servants who greeted them in the living room, where they were busy moving around.

“Are you here?”

The brothers sighed inwardly as they greeted Chairman Yoo, who was sitting on the couch. His grandfather’s face, which was smiling broadly and had deep wrinkles, looked more unpleasant than usual today.

“······Did dad stay like that?”

“He seems to have calmed down a bit today.”

Really? Is that so?

Yoo Gunmin only glanced at them, sitting on the sofa and doing nothing. He understood why he was angry with him because of his acceptance speech, but why was he ignoring his brother too?

“Did you do something wrong to dad, hyung?”

“He said it’s because of the alumni association.”

“What?”

Chairman Yoo clicked his tongue as he heard the whisper. Yoo Gunmin ignored him. He was not ashamed of his sons.

“······Son, aren’t you going to greet me?”

“How have you been, father?”

“Fine.”

Yoo Yeon Seo greeted him in a historical drama tone, and Yoo Gunmin accepted it curtly. But his lips curled up slightly, as if his mood had already improved.

A laughter was heard from the side. Then he noticed, there was an old man he had never seen before, drinking tea.

“This is something······ I can’t see from you.”

“What do you mean, it’s nice to see them getting along.”

The old man, who had neatly combed his hair back and wore a well-fitted suit, looked like a tailor who had been running a tailor shop in Korea for decades.

“I’m meeting this grandson for the first time. I’ve seen you a lot on TV though.”

“Hello.”

Yoo Yeon Seo shook his hand politely. The old man smiled warmly.

His tailor shop was rumored to be favored by Chairman Yoo, and many chaebols visited it, but it was rare to see a third-generation who was so courteous.

“Please give me your autograph later.”

“Of course.”

“Since the grandsons are here, shall we start?”

The old tailor gestured, and the people who were waiting behind him took out the clothes. Among them, there was a familiar face. It was the person who had measured his body size a few weeks ago when Lim Seunghyun brought him.

“So, you’re volunteering too? All of you?”

“What else can I do at home when I have a day off?”

“You don’t even have a position in the company, why? Do you want me to make one for you?”

Yoo Yeon Seo turned his head back at the sight of Chairman Yoo looking at him one last time. What was this mean old man up to?

“I already have a position in mom’s company, what do you mean, that’s not it······.”

“Then what is it?”

“I just wanted to help dad. He would pay more attention if I was there.”

Should I appease his anger this time······ He wrapped his words nicely, and Yoo Gunmin seemed to be touched as he covered his mouth. He didn’t need to see it to know.

“You don’t need my help, dad. You’re strong enough.”

“I know that, of course.”

Chairman Yoo was the one who felt uncomfortable with that answer. It was useless to have a grandson. Yoo Yeon Seo twinkled his eyes playfully.

“Why? Do you want me to tell you that I’m interested in your money?”

“Tsk tsk, you kids are all greedy for money······.”

“You raised us like this.”

“You even talk back to me!”

He was not as scared of his grandfather as he used to be. He knew that Chairman Yoo was secretly caring for him even though he opposed what he was doing. He probably didn’t know what his family was doing in the past, so he didn’t care.

“Tsk, if I give you all my fortune, will you stay by my side?”

“Why don’t you go on a trip with me then?”

“Together?”

“Yes, with the money you gave me.”

Of course, it was based on the premise that the culprit would be caught and pay for his crime by then······ And if the ‘head’ was closer than he thought, he wouldn’t even think about traveling.

“Ahem······ That sounds good.”

Chairman Yoo, who didn’t know what his grandson was thinking, felt happy. He had a few grandsons who came to him sweetly, but they looked like they were struggling. The only one who talked to him boldly was Yoo Yeon Seo.

Yeon Seo had another reason for participating actively.

‘This is a chance to observe my relatives more closely.’

He still hadn’t figured out who the ‘head’ was.

***

The brothers left Chairman Yoo’s mansion and joined the volunteer activities for the 80th anniversary of the founding. The attendants, including Im Seunghyun, followed them.

“Wow, it’s Yeon Seo!”

“Awesome!”

People buzzed as soon as Yeon Seo got out of the car.

They started by replacing the appliances at the welfare facility. Then they donated smartphones and tablet pads for low-income students. Yeon Seo handed over the new devices from Juseong Electronics with his brother and looked up at the sound of the camera.

“Oh, this is perfect.”

The PR team didn’t miss this and captured it in a photo. It would probably go out as a press release in a few minutes.

“Director, Young Master. Let’s go to the next place.”

“Without giving out the rest?”

“We have another schedule.”

“Can you postpone that a bit?”

“Excuse me?”

The attendant was bewildered. He was Park Ji-won, who had been assisting Yeon Seo during his ‘national bird’ reward vacation.

The brothers ignored the rolling attendant and handed out the last one themselves.

“Hi.”

Yeon Seo approached a student who kept making eye contact with him. He was looking at him with a mixture of excitement from receiving the electronic device and hope that he might get a photo with the celebrity if he stayed here.

“Hello! I’m a fan!”

The student shouted as if he had been waiting for him. He was especially short among the students, so Yeon Seo bent his knees slightly.

“Really? Do you want a picture?”

“Yes! But… can we take it with the three of you?”

“The three of us? Hey, you must be good at math.”

He and his brother make three… what a quick-witted kid.

The student’s friend shouted proudly at Yeon Seo’s playful question.

“He’s the best in the whole school district!”

“Oh… I knew it. Bro, let’s take a picture and go.”

The two students smiled brightly with the most famous brothers in Korea on their sides. As one of them started, people everywhere asked for their pictures too. The brothers accepted their requests without frowning.

“Young Master.”

The ones who were anxious about him were the attendants.

Yeon Seo, who had finally finished taking pictures and signing, put his arm around Park Ji-won’s shoulder, who had a dissatisfied expression. He pointed to a black car parked far away.

“Mr. Park Ji-won, do you see that?”

“Yes.”

“That’s a reporter. Where was it? Sports something…”

“Should I chase them away?”

Park Ji-won’s expression hardened. Yeon Seo shook his head. If they chased them away recklessly, they would only get more fired up.

“Leave them alone. They’ll just come back anyway.”

“…”

“Anyway, since I’m involved, they’ll talk behind my back if I do anything sloppy. Adjust the schedule as you see fit.”

“Yes, sir.”

The attendants agreed, since he had his own reason. They had to adjust to whatever the royals did anyway. Yoo Eunho and Yeon Seo were on the polite side.

Yeon Seo, who got in the car to move to another area, opened his eyes wide when he saw an unexpected person.

“Huh? Park Sun-woo.”

“Hey, long time no see, bros.”

Park Sun-woo greeted them as if he was bowing. He looked a bit tired, saying he had left home early in the morning and went around distributing necessities.

“You do this kind of stuff too?”

“Mom says I have to run around to earn my share. I owe you one.”

“Come on.”

Yeon Seo had a feeling something was wrong since the holiday, and pointed to the phone fixed to a long stick. Some words were scrolling up on the screen.

“Is that live right now?”

“I got permission. It helps with publicity.”

“Your channel?”

Yoo Eunho and Yoo Yeon Seo said at the same time. Park Sunwoo, who still wanted some attention, made a sulky face. As soon as his brothers appeared, the channel owner became irrelevant.

[LIVE] Seonu also participates in the 80th anniversary of Juseong!

-lololol your channel? (questioning tone)

-hey bros, our Seonu is popular too!

-he’s so handsome

-is it just me or did the quality go from 720 to 8k?

-Seonu, move your face a bit, I can’t see

-Seonu, show us your bros

“Take this chance to say hello to ‘my viewers’.”

-lol look at him emphasizing ‘my viewers’

-Seonu is kinda cute lol but his bros are too handsome lol

-Seonu, I’m saying this for your sake, stay away from your bros… you look bad in comparison

Yeon Seo snickered at the chat. He had already seen them a lot on TV, so he reached out his hand to cover his brother’s face.

“Hello. I’ll skip myself since you already know me… This is our brother.”

“Hello. I’m Yoo Eunho.”

Yoo Eunho, who was not familiar with this kind of broadcast, nodded awkwardly.

-lol he introduces his brother first, he’s a pro at broadcasting lololol

-what’s that voice, I’m hooked

-did he come from a cave lol

Yoo Eunho was also enjoying the celebrity’s popularity, but he didn’t do SNS like his father or brother, and he could only be seen on articles or news screens. The reaction was naturally explosive.

“But Eunho bro, don’t you have to go with your big uncle? He’s the executive director.”

“I prefer to go with you guys.”

“What did you do last year?”

Yoo Eunho briefly closed his lips at Yeon Seo’s question and answered softly.

“…Kimchi.”

“Kimchi?”

“Executives have to participate.”

Yeon Seo quickly searched his brother’s name and the anniversary on his phone. There was a photo of Yoo Eunho wearing a hygiene cap, a vinyl suit, and pink rubber gloves, making and distributing kimchi as a charity event for the anniversary.

“…Ugh.”

“Pfft.”

It wasn’t funny to make and share kimchi. Yoo Eunho had a neat and dandy image that suited a suit. That was no exception for his family. That’s why they burst into laughter at his different appearance.

“What’s with that expression?”

“What’s wrong with it?”

Park Sunwoo couldn’t find anything else, but Yeon Seo could guess that his brother had a hard time then just by looking at the expression in the photo.

“But how can he still look handsome like this? It’s unfair.”

“Bro, how about we start a kimchi business with our names on it?”

“Stop it.”

Yoo Eunho pushed his teasing brothers’ shoulders with a small sigh. Yeon Seo and Park Sunwoo laughed again.

-lololol I thought they would be different because they’re rich, but they’re just like us

-Seonu, from our perspective, you’re also unfair

-I just came, what is this, a museum? A statue?

-I thought it wasn’t Seonu’s channel for a moment lol

They chatted like that and soon arrived at the next place. Park Sunwoo stopped Yeon Seo, who was about to get off first, with his hand.

“Bros, do you know what my nickname is?”

“What is it?”

“Super president.”

“You?”

The brothers questioned him at the same time. Park Sunwoo confidently told them to watch and got out of the car.

“Hey guys, hello!”

“Huh?”

“It’s Seonu!”

“Wow!”

The children recognized Park Sun-woo and quickly ran over to him, forgetting about their ball game. Park Sun-woo proudly said to his siblings who followed him.

“I’m this kind of person.”

“Oh… really.”

The children’s mouths hung open when they saw Yoo Yeon-seo. After a few seconds of silence, they erupted into cheers.

“Hey! A celebrity!”

“I know this person!”

“Wow…”

“Hello? Sister! Yoo Yeon-seo… oppa is here!”

The children’s reaction to Park Sun-woo’s appearance was merely curious, but their reaction to Yoo Yeon-seo was five times more intense. Yoo Yeon-seo put her arm on Park Sun-woo’s shoulder.

“Work harder.”

“… Sob.”
