Chapter 54: The Magic That Destroys The Ability 

“Director Bong? What on earth do you mean by that?”

“You’re destroying the voters’ intelligence…?”

Han Seoyoung looked very worried.

I was concerned that this weirdo might be trying to cross the line too far.

The same goes for other party members.

Park Seokji , who was reluctant to see Bong Soohee, was glaring at her with a distressed expression.

“It is literally. “We have developed a new drug that lowers the intelligence of citizens and turns them into idiots.” 

“What, what…?”

Everyone was shocked.

Bong Soohee laughed at that reaction.

“I’m kidding. “Do you really think I would do something like that?”

“Whew… uh, right?”

“I can’t do it because I have no medical knowledge.”

So, if you had the ability, you would have made it?

I thought it was a good thing that Bong Soohee didn’t go to medical school.

Anyway, it seemed like she prepared content.

As always.

“Humans are creatures who are very good at packaging emotional judgments to make them appear rational. You can see it in this example.”

The presentation began with a capture of a party member’s personal chat.

Lee Byunseok: CEO… I have something to ask…

Kang Jiwoo: What is it?

Lee Byunseok: I found a girl I like.

Lee Byunseok: I don’t know how to put it…

“Lee Byungseok is from our planning team, right?”

Lee Byung-seok was a sincere party member.

A young and radiant young man of 30 years old,

He was also famous for being an involuntary soloist.

And from what I remember, that’s what it says.

“This is a conversation Kang Ji-woo had with Kun Byungseok before he became TS.”

It was a conversation I had when I was a normal adult man.

“Kun Byungseok  asked Kang Ji-woo how to talk to a woman. This is because Kang Ji-woo was a dating expert who had CC five times during college.”

Party members whispered at those words.

Especially female party members

“oh. “I didn’t see it that way, CEO… I guess you hit a girl?”

“With that face, they said he was the head of the department. Do you think the girls would have left him alone?”

“CC five times is amazing in many ways….”

Hey…….

People misunderstand because you say everything before and after, right?

I just don’t stop people coming and don’t catch people leaving!

And I never broke up with you because I hated you!

They were all kicked by the woman!

There was no opportunity to protest.

As the screen progressed, the following content was revealed.

Kang Ji-woo: I heard women like jokes and stuff like that?

Lee Byunseok: Old man’s joke?

Kang Ji-woo: Yes.

Kang Ji-woo: I’m sure you’ll like it, right?

Kang Ji-woo: Can you tell me one thing?

Lee Byunseok: Oh. please…!

“Kang Ji-woo taught Kun Byungseok about the old man’s joke. The pure Kun Byung-seok did the joke without any doubt and this is the terrible result….”

Lee Byunseok: XX. ruler?

Lee Byunseok: Do you have sunscreen at home?

Excited Leo: Huh?

Lee Byunseok: Sunscreen should never be stored lying down.

Excited Leo: Why?

Lee Byeong-seok: Because it degenerates into ‘laying cream’ instead of ‘sunscreen’.

Lee Byunseok: Alright lol.

Excited Leo: 😑

Excited Leo: Blocked

That was the last message.

It is said that Lee Byung-seok is still single from birth…

“Kang Ji-woo didn’t mean to mess with Kun  Byungseok. Women have evaluated Kang Ji-woo’s ‘humorousness’ as good, and Kang Ji-woo believed that. Just. But the truth is different.”

The truth is different?

So you’re saying I’m not humorous?

Could that be possible?

As soon as you open your mouth, it explodes?

That comedy is all about timing and intonation.

I sent it via message and there was no response.

“Kang Ji-woo was a universally attractive man. Women fell for him for similar reasons and then had to rationally explain why they fell in love with him.

“For this reason, I came up with the answer of ‘humor.’”

“To be honest, the CEO’s jokes are rather dull…”

“……?!”

I raised my head and looked at Han Seoyoung.

Han Seo-young! You also laughed at my old man’s joke, right?

It’s all been fake smiles up until now?

Were you just trying to please me…?!

Han Seo-young corrected it with an awkward smile, as if she had missed it.

“In the past, sometimes

I’m saying it was dull. haha….”

“Then what about now…?”

“It’s so much fun now!”

“Hehem.”

I tried to express my sense of betrayal, but failed.

Jiwooping is too weak for praise..

“Non-surfing. Please.”

At that time, Bong Soohee spoke to secretary Song Yeon.

Song Yeon brought an unknown bag from somewhere and called me.

“Candidate! Would you like to go out with me for a moment?”

“Where are you going…?”

“mask

I find out. Hehehe.”

“Hehe…”

Just like that, I was dragged by Song Yeon’s hand and left the conference room.

Even though I couldn’t listen to the end of the meeting.

Why is that bag so ominous…?

The conference room where Kang Ji-woo left.

Bong Soohee’s explanation continued.

“The following is a summary of the women’s thoughts.”

The screen switched and two sentences appeared.

Woman who saw Kang Ji-woo: Wow! A person who looks like this can make jokes?

Woman who saw the hospital bed:

Wow… A person who looks like this can make jokes…?

It’s the same thing, but it’s clearly different.

The nuance difference was already famous.

Even if the same words are said by an ugly person, they sound dull.

Something that makes people burst out laughing when a good-looking person does it.

“The gag itself has not changed. What has changed is the face of the target and the intelligence of the women.”

“Intelligence..?”

“Humans’ intelligence momentarily decreases in the presence of a wonderful person of the opposite sex. “This is an area that has been proven through numerous studies and papers.”

In fact, there was no need to even go to verification.

Being a fool in front of someone you like is something everyone has experienced at least once.

“So our goal is:”

1. By maximizing Kang Ji-woo’s cuteness, voters’ intelligence is instantly lowered.

2. It shows Kang Ji-woo performing his duties.

3, Voter: Wow! Such a cute kid can run the government!

4. Elected.

“Hmm…….”

“Is this the end?”

The reaction of party members was subtle.

It wasn’t that it wasn’t very persuasive.

The flow was okay in its own way.

But there were no details.

What are you going to do and how?

How can we appeal to cuteness to a level that lowers the intelligence of voters?

“So what is that content?”

“Follow me.”

“?”

Bong Soohee pretended to blow the nose flute with both hands.

So I left the conference room.

“Well… I don’t know what on earth we’re going to do.”

“Let’s follow along for now. It looks like Director Bong has prepared something.”

“No matter what, you shouldn’t say things like that without destroying the intelligence of voters. Tsk…”

Even though I complained, I followed along steadily.

The party members arrived at the basement of the building.

It was a small auditorium.

“Maybe it’s a children’s play…?”

The stage lights were on.

A background board that could be used in a children’s play.

It was a stage depicting a forest.

There was no one on stage.

No, there was a wild animal hiding.

The tiger’s tail was stretched out behind the grassy plate.

“Huh? That’s…”

Putting Han Seo-young’s doubts aside, Bong Soohee continued her explanation.

“The content <Daetongnyeong Kang Ji-woo in the Forest>.” The neck is “Daetongnyeong in the forest…?”

“It is a play about Jiwooping, a tiger, thinking about policies and communicating with his animal friends.”

Maximizing cuteness lowers intelligence.

At that moment, he shows off his ability to perform his duties.

Of course, it will be far behind other candidates.

But it doesn’t matter.

As if there is nothing in this world funnier than the jokes of a handsome man,

Jiwooping’s political drama will portray him as the greatest political leader in the world.

Widely!

Bong Soohee hit her palm with her filial hand and made a sound.

Then Kang Ji-woo came out from behind the grassy board.

“Uh huh!!!”

Kang Ji-woo appeared with a sigh.

She wore a tiger costume and roared as if threatening party members.

“!”

“It’s so cute…!”

” Aaaah!” 

“Awesome, awesome…!!!”

Of course, it wasn’t threatening at all.

On the contrary, it was so cute that I almost blushed.

Kang Ji-woo shouted, showing off his attire.

“I am Daetongnyeong in the forest!”

The person who showed the greatest reaction to him was none other than Park Seokji .

“Hahahaha! Our Jiwoo is so cute! Come and give Grandpa a hug!”

“It’s not cute, it’s scary…”

“Let’s give it a hug, you bastard!”

“Ouch! It’s sour! Hehehehe!”

Immediately start playing tag!

Park Seokji , who was upset just a moment ago.

One second was enough for his ridge to shatter…!

“Is your intelligence really low? I can’t take my eyes off you…”

Han Seo-young shook her head and said to Bong Soohee.

“Tell me more about the content. I understand you put on animal costumes and put on a play. What is the play about?”

“Actually, the play just borrowed the form.”

“The content will be similar to an open meeting or discussion meeting between Jiwiiping and his staff.”

Public meetings and conferences.

That’s a routine event in the political world.

However, this was different in that it was done on a cute stage and wearing cute clothes.

“Is it like a skin?” 

“Replacing public meetings and conferences with the framework of a play…”

“In other words, it’s similar. But there are also differences. We will make it as easy as possible for Jiwooping to understand. Also, a short play that matches the theme of the episode. We plan to film this and use it as an intro and outro.”

“A play? Will that work? “It will require people and cost a lot of money.”

“I will do the filming and editing myself, and the actors can be Jiwooping and party members.”

“Party member…………?”

Bong Soohee took out several animal clothes from her bag.

I handed the rabbit suit to Han Seo-young.

“You should also appear.” 

” Of course”

“Yes?!”

Han Seo-young is shocked.

Having to stand in front of the camera wearing something like this…

He seemed a bit embarrassed.

She asked back as if she felt unfair.

“Well, then your senior will also be appearing?”

“No?” 

“why!”

“I’m the director.”

“……”

When it came out like that, I had nothing more to say.

Suddenly, an ominous future appeared in Han Seo-young’s head.

‘Isn’t this going to be a dark event?’

It’s not that Young and MZ didn’t have a strategy on this floor.

Everyone like dogs.

It just disappeared after failing.

No, it would be nice if it would just disappear.

We live in an era where people are stuffed into the Internet and remain as dark history for a lifetime.

Bong Soohee is said to be talented, but isn’t theater her specialty?

At that time, lawyer Lee So-yeon spoke to Han Seo-young with a flushed face.

“Director Han. Would you like to read this?”

“What is this?”

“This is a script I wrote. It’s a shame, but I’ve been writing fairy tales and scenarios for a long time. Director Bong is preparing a play this time.”

“You asked me to show off my skills.”

Lee Soyeon was a skilled person in this field.

There were several children’s books published under your own name.

“Haha… the lawyer also has this talent…”

Somehow, the situation was in full swing.

‘There is no escape…’

In the end, Han Seo-young had to wear a rabbit costume.

On that day, the episode ‘Zero’ of <Daetongnyeong Kang Ji-woo in the Forest> was filmed.
