Chapter 117

Yuzung was a stunning beauty, to say the least . In particular, her melancholy look seemed to touch his heart warmly . It looked like even a mere touch of her eyes would make her shed tears . She looked too young, though . In Hyunwoo'e eyes, she was a high school girl to all outward appearance . She had a baby face, and her natural image made her look younger all the more . Come to think of it, she was wearing no makeup, and she didn't even put on lipstick, let alone earrings, necklace, or rings . According to Sungji Na, president of N&C Korea who introduced her, she was an adult, a college freshman, but she looked like a minor . ”How do you do? My name is Yuzung,” said she in awkward Korean, but that's all . She could not speak any Korean . ”She's beautiful, doesn't she? She is not only pretty but also kind-hearted . And she is smart, too . She attends Ho Chi Min University, the best in Vietnam . ” ”But she is too young . Twelve years younger than me,” said Hyunwoo, feeling awkward . But Sungji whispered into his ears as if he didn't want to be overheard . ”Don't say that . Jungsu Kwon remarried a Vietnamese woman twelve years younger than him . And she is his second wife . Twelve years of age difference is just nothing . ” ”Still…” said Hyunwoo, scratching his head . While they were talking, Yuzung was looking at Hyunwoo . When her eyes met his, she avoided his eyes as if she was shy, and then threw her eyes again at him . Sungji again whispered, ”I told her about you a lot . She is pretty much interested in you, so go on a date with her . I can guarantee you she's the best bride candidate in the world . You don't have to have any prejudice against her because she is not Korean . ” Then, Sungji left the, as if he suggested Hyunwoo that he go on a date with her . Was that the reason? Until a moment ago she looked like a high school girl, but now Hyunwoo found his heart pounding before he knew it . He was really attracted by her beauty . But Hyunwoo was told that one's attraction to a woman's beauty would not last three years . It would be okay if both sides agreed to date, but playing with love out of l.u.s.t would be dangerous . I have got to fight the feeling . This is a lady that I should not touch out of l.u.s.t . Hyunwoo controlled his surging l.u.s.t, but Yuzung seemed to think differently . She cautiously initiated a conversation while Hyunwoo was watching the wedding ceremony quietly . ”How long are you staying in Vietnam?” Though her English p.r.o.nunciation was a bit awkward, she still spoke fluent English . ”I'll be staying here until Tuesday . ” ”Are Korean men so handsome?” ”No way . There are lots of Koreans that look like me . Hahaha” ”Oh, Hyunwoo, you're handsome . ” And then their conversation stopped in a moment . When she spoke again after thinking hard about something, he answered shortly and then stopped . Sometimes, he spoke to her, feeling sorry, and on such occasions, he turned his head to her . He felt some sort of beauty and chasteness in her that he could not touch . He had to avoid her eyes quickly . On the other hand, she acted naturally . Though Yuzung was a stranger to him, she seemed to feel close to him because she already heard a lot about him from Sungji . Sungji came back to Hyunwoo about the time the wedding ceremony was at an end . Yuzung left with a wistful look, saying her friends were waiting for her . ”How about her? Don't you think she is your best bride candidate?” ”No matter how I think, she is too young . Hahaha . ” ”Why does it matter? If you like her, that's what really matters . ” ”Well, I have a girl that I have set my heart on in Korea . ” Sungji's eyes opened wide at that, ”Really? You should have told me about it in advance . ” Originally Hyunwoo was to head to Natrang right after the wedding ceremony to search for the missing family of Mr . Kwak's wife, but they found the family, so Hyunwoo was not in a hurry . In addition, not only Sungji but also the members of Korean Businessmen a.s.sociation in Vietnam came in droves to see Hyunwoo and said,”You shouldn't leave this place like this as you've come a long way from Korea . ” ”Let's have a drink . ” ”Even if you leave for Natrang now you'd be arriving there in the evening, so sleep here tonight and leave early tomorrow morning . ” Hyunwoo nodded his head, and then Sungji suggested, ”Okay, then . Play golf with me first, and I'll see you guys at the bar in Ho Chi Min at night . ” They agreed and left . Guided by Sungji, Hyunwoo went to a golf course nearby, and Yuzung also appeared there . Actually, she visited the golf club with her friends to spend time with Hyunwoo . Her friends were also beautiful enough to be picked up as entertainers, but her beauty stood out among them . When Hyunwoo looked at her, Suji's face suddenly came to his mind . And he was comparing both of them before he knew it . In terms of appearance, Yuzung was much more beautiful . Though Suji was beautiful, too, she was nothing compared to Yuzung . Suji was a beautiful woman among the ordinary women while Yuzung was beautiful enough to be called an entertainer . Still, it was Suji that Hyunwoo was attracted to . He became fond of her before he knew it . Whenever there was talk about marriage or a bride, Hyunwoo naturally thought of her . Suddenly, he felt pitiful about himself . Though he was full of affection for her, he never expressed it to her properly . Could I ask for a date when I go back to Korea? When he thought about it again, he felt it would be a foolish decision . Why was he focused on going back to Korea in order to do something? Even here in Vietnam, he could call her anytime . Yes, she might like it better . Hyunwoo, along with Sung and Sangtaek, went to the field . When they pa.s.sed the 13th hole, it was already approaching 5 pm . The time difference between Korea and Vietnam was two hours . Excusing himself, Hyunwoo called Suji . In a surprised voice, Suji picked up the phone, ”Oh my G.o.d, aren't you in Vietnam?” ”Yes, I'm calling you from here in Vietnam . ” ”Chee . . . Don't lie . You're back in Korea, aren't you?” She didn't believe him . It took some time for him to make her believe he was in Vietnam . ”Oh my . . . You didn't call me often while you were in Korea . It looks like you've come to your senses . ” ”Suddenly, you came into my mind . ” ”Oh my . . . How nice of you! I feel so good . When you come back, let me treat you to dinner . You buy me a beer in return, okay?” ”Sure . ” When Hyunwoo was done, Sungji and Sangtaek came up to him, ”You were all smiles when you called someone . Who is it? Looks like it's your sweetheart . ” ”Oh, not a sweetheart . She is my younger sister . ” ”Man, why are you lying? Are you talking with your sister for ten minutes on international call? And without any particular business???” ”Really? Did I talk as long as ten minutes?” Hyunwoo'e eyes opened wide . Like Sungji said, he talked with Suji for 11 minutes 29 seconds, which he didn't realize at all . After the call, Hyunwoo let out a sigh of relief . It was a novel experience for him . When he was talking with her on the phone, he felt as he was walking on a cloud . What he remembered was that he smiled all along while talking . Sungji laughed heartily, ”Hahaha . I think I was wrong to have called Yuzung here . It's your turn, Hyunwoo . ” Hyunwoo quickly grabbed the golf club . He felt sorry for them as they had to wait more than ten minutes because of himself . After golfing they headed to a restaurant . Yuzung and her friends were waiting for them in front of the golf course . She was in a cheerful mood, just like any college student . Unlike her melancholic eyes, she was aggressive in att.i.tude . Judging that Hyunwoo was a man of few words, she even began talking about herself, which Hyunwoo didn't reply to, of course . She was dreaming of becoming an animator, so she decided to major in animation at college . Her father influenced her a lot in that respect . As a recognized animator, her father was working as the team manager of an animation company here . When she mentioned her father, she looked at Hyunwoo, which clearly showed her good feeling about him . Hyunwoo felt thrilled to get her attention, but at the same time felt it as a burden . It was not just out of pleasure or fun that she showed interested in him . The prime age at which a Vietnamese person married was between 20 and 23, Hyunwoo heard, so when a woman was more than 25 years old, she got called an old miss . Obviously, Yuzung regarded him as her groom candidate, but Hyunwoo was not attracted to her by her beauty alone . It might be the start of a beautiful relations.h.i.+p, but he felt he would end up ending it badly . He needed to tell her about his true feelings before he developed a serious relations.h.i.+p with her . He cautiously called her outside, ”Shall we get out in the air?”

Yuzung was a stunning beauty, to say the least . In particular, her melancholy look seemed to touch his heart warmly . It looked like even a mere touch of her eyes would make her shed tears .
