Chapter 100: < Protect – Episode 99 – Hosoo Entertainment Channel [1] >

It was Ahn Soo Ho who was setting the trends of Korea following the chaos that resulted from the candlelight vigil. He was admired as the young businessman even though that wasn’t what he intended. In the eyes of a society that stressed modesty, Ahn Soo Ho was something else.

His ability to push ahead with his plans and to make everything possible made him stand out even more. This caused hostility in the establishments but also fueled hope in those who were originally skeptical about whistleblowing.

If Ahn Soo Ho had really been an heir, he wouldn’t have received this kind of response. His father was a playboy and his parents got divorced when he was young, so he lived separately from his mother all his life. So the fact that he became rich before the age of 40 despite his upbringing was very impressive.

‘Who’s Ahn Soo Ho, really?’

What happened between the time when he dropped out of the Naval Academy and when he founded Hosoo Entertainment Group? The public was curious about Ahn Soo Ho and the media didn’t hold back. They put friends, cousins, and neighbors who knew him in front of the camera, but they all said nice things about Ahn Soo Ho.

That was because they learned from the Lee Hyo Geun case.

Lee Hyo Geun’s ex-wife said a lot of nonsense on television and ended up getting a lot of backlashes and was labeled as a crazy wench. As a result, Park Ok Nam was seen as nothing but a victim. It was crazy for Lee Hyo Geun to be controlled by his ex-wife even after getting remarried.

Ahn Soo Ho became Korea’s trendsetter in no time. As a result, people wanted to know more about him. They wanted to know what he ate, who he met, and what they talked about. A few dozen out of the 100 paparazzi in Monaco was there for Ahn Soo Ho, not Lila or Jang Seol Hyun.

Among those, Jang Il Ho didn’t hesitate to reveal to the public that he received 1 billion won as a reward for the paparazzi case. As a result, he quit his job and worked as a blogger while following around Ahn Soo Ho as his biggest fan. As of the moment, he was doing a live stream in Monaco.

“You know Michelin, right? This restaurant has three Michelin stars making it a very expensive restaurant. You can see Lila and Seol Hyun, too. Oh! There’s Oh Joo Kyung, too. And ta-da! Ahn Soo Ho! Mr. Ahn is sitting in a cool posture. Nice! If he wasn’t Korean, you would have mistaken him for European royalty.

In the chat room attached to the screen, viewers left comments in response to his broadcast.

Il Ho, you son of a bitch! You look like you’re willing to give him your ass!

He bought your ass for 1 billion won! You undutiful child!

You gay bastard! Don’t go after Mr. Ahn’s ass!

Jang Il Ho, you’re not married yet?

If he had, that would be even worse!

He’s revealing the feelings he had been hiding all this time!

I don’t see Lila! Do your job, you son of a bitch!

Who’s Lila?

You’re kidding, right?

I thought you were talking about Lara Croft!

Tomb Raider? Who’ll get the GOTY this time?

“Oh! Mr. Ahn and Lila must be very close. They look like their siblings.”

Ahn Soo Ho and Lila came into the screen.

How did he become close to Lila?

I heard he used to be a successful guard.

A guard? You can earn that much money being a guard?

He probably managed a guard business.

No, no! He worked for the national defense! Don’t you know Pentagon?

Yeah, but how did he make all that money?

Don’t you know, Jang Il Ho?

Yeah, answer us!

Are you gay, too?

Shut up!

“I heard he used to work as a consultant related to national defense. A contractor who’s known all around the world. Like a Korean middle man. Something like that. It hasn’t been revealed as to exactly what he did, but there are rumors that he worked in between different countries. Oh, they must have finished eating. I don’t know where they’re headed next, but I’ll keep following them! Please follow my… Gasp!”

Jang Il Ho was startled.

He saw someone get jumped while Ahn Soo Ho was paying. And it wasn’t just one person. Someone who was sitting at one of the café tables grabbed Lila by her waist and a guard tried to stop him. But other men from the table joined and stopped the guard.

Crash-

Oh Joo Kyung, who tried to protect Jang Seol Hyun who fell, also fell over with her. Jang Il Ho froze up. This was clearly an emergency and they needed help, but his feet wouldn’t budge.

Screech-

As soon as the van screeched in, Jang Seol Hyun let out a scream.

“Mister!”

Jang Il Ho turned the camera to see Ahn Soo Ho flying over before a man got kicked to the ground, another one flew into the air. However, once they got Lila in the car, they took off without all of their men.

Ahn Soo Ho looked back at Jang Seol Hyun.

She signaled for him to go chase them since she was okay. It didn’t seem like Oh Joo Kyung was badly hurt either. While the guards rounded up the rest of the culprits, an agent ran over. Seeing how he looked taken aback, this must have been totally unexpected.

‘They’re not professionals.’

Ahn Soo Ho walked toward the banister while thinking about what to do. They weren’t any kind of professional let alone Alleyas Frovesa. If they were professionals, they wouldn’t have done it in public and in broad daylight. Monaco was relatively safe, but it was hard to avoid traffic.

As soon as he stood by the railing, he saw a van that couldn’t go very fast. They tried to use the space between the sidewalk and the road to escape. He could have flipped the van over with his magic, but he didn’t want to cause any trouble.

“Gun!”

As soon as Ahn Soo Ho stuck out his hand, the agent handed him a gun with a troubled look. Once he received the gun, he shot the front and back tires of the van.

Bang, bang-

It was impossible for an average person to aim at the tires so accurately with that gun. But since Ahn Soo Ho used his magic, he was capable of stopping more things than just a moving car. Once the tires went out, the van lost its balance and ended up on the sandy beach.

Luckily, no person was hit, but it was close.

Ahn Soo Ho handed the gun back and ran from the banister. Since it was 5 to 6 meters high, people screamed from left to right. However, there was nothing to worry about. Normal people would have injured their legs, but Ahn Soo Ho landed safely. The police siren then went off.

Ahn Soo Ho approached the van and threw his fists as soon as the door opened. He gave it to them good and then got Lila out and checked if she was okay. Luckily, she didn’t have any major injuries.

Jang Il Ho saw all of this and cheered in his head.

‘Amazing! Ahn Soo Ho did yet another good deed!’

Pictures were fine, too, but videos were even better. Jang Il Ho’s YouTube channel and comment section exploded.

What is this? What happened?

Is this for real? Hey! Gay man! Say something!

Are they filming a movie or something? Ahn Soo Ho just shot a gun, right?

Lila almost got kidnapped! Hey! Is this for real! Someone tell me!

It’s not on the news yet!

CNN! CNN! IT’s on the news! It’s being called Monaco terror!

Was it a kidnapping or a terrorist attack? Who’s right?

While the media blew up, Ahn Soo Ho brought her to the hospital. She didn’t seem to have any injuries, but she still needed an inspection. Hannah, the vice president of Holly Corporation fainted at the news and was transported to the same hospital. And since it was Ahn Soo Ho’s companion that was attacked, even the French politicians freaked out.

“They’re not a human trafficking or terror group. They’re not Alleyas either.”

“Then who are they?”

After Olivia interrogated the ones that they caught, she went to the hospital herself.

“They’re stalkers.”

“Are you kidding me?”

They reeked of amateurs, but what kind of stalker moves as a group?

“It was just like a car accident, Soo Ho. They didn’t have any objective. They just really love Lila and lost their reasoning. It’s hard to make this into more than just an accident.”

“A car accident…”

It was difficult for normal people to understand crazy people.

“Then what’s next?”

“We have to let the media know that they’re not terrorists.”

France’s dignity was depending on this.

“But don’t put Lila out in the limelight.”

“No?”

“Just leave the injured girl alone.”

Olivia smacked her lips. Putting Lila in front of the cameras would have calmed everything down quicker, but she didn’t want to deal with the monster across from her.

“Don’t stalkers usually act alone?”

“We’ll have to conduct a psychological test, but they’re different from the average stalker.”

“How?”

“In Korea, you call it bullying. Bullying has been a serious societal problem for dozens of years. In cases like this, victims band together and form a network.”

Bullying was a problem that had existed for a very long time.

” They’re all in their early 20s and what they have in common is that they’re all a huge fan of Lila.”

“A fan? What were they going to do once they kidnapped her?”

“They were trying to save her from you.”

“Haha.”

They were delusional.

Ahn Soo Ho finally understood why those amateurs did what they did. They misunderstood the situation as a just act of saving Princess Lila from a capitalist monster. But why did it have to be today? That was some coincidence.

Thinking back on it, there were some death threats after they revealed that he was dating Jang Seol Hyun. There were a lot of crazy people who thought stars were their lovers. Sending threat letters and digging out the eyes out of a picture was nothing compared to what could really happen. Since Lila was 10 times more famous than Jang Seol Hyun, there was no telling how many crazy lunatics were disguised as her fan.

“But why today of all days?”

“The media stimulated it.”

“The media?”

“Don’t you watch the news?”

Olivia scoffed at Ahn Soo Ho’s response. She took out her phone and showed him the article.

Pop star Lila! A secret marriage in Monaco!

Lila and Miss France? What a player!

Princess of pop! Is she finally settling for a man?

Who’s the man that stole her heart?

There was not much to say about this.

The Korean media was in on it, but the States started it. The articles without even 1% of truth did whatever they could to get the clicks. And those who wanted to criticize got baited in, and those who were bullied or were against society believed the gossip to be true.

“Huh?”

Ahn Soo Ho clicked on an article that had especially many views.

Ahn Soo Ho should be chosen as the shooting representative of Korea in the Olympics!

The article with a link to a YouTube video already had more than 20,000 comments.

Did he shot the moving wheels of a car from 70 to 75 meters away?

And it was just a regular handgun! How is that possible?

Is this a movie preview? I can’t believe it!

Did ‘Mission Impossible 6’ already come out?

Go to the gun fan sites in the States! It’s madness!

Why?

Someone’s talking nonsense about how all Koreans are good at shooting because of the mandatory military service! Apparently, if Koreans fought Japan and China, they would win!

Ahn Soo Ho was either smiling or frowning.

‘Maybe we need to hold a shooting competition before we even think about a beauty pageant…’
