Tae-jun’s Masterplan — The Fall of Kang Hae-jin
Tae-jun didn’t strike fast.
He struck perfectly.
For months, he quietly collected every thread of Kang Hae-jin’s corruption — hidden accounts, ghost subsidiaries, illegal transfers, bribes, offshore laundering, political funding, secret shares under shell owners, private blackmail vaults, and Su-ah’s financial trails woven into them.
Everything.
He waited until Kang Hae-jin felt safe again.
Then he set the trap.
Financial Collapse
A single encrypted file was leaked to the Financial Crime Task Force.24Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3eFb4UtBV
Not everything.24Please respect copyright.PENANAbFpVXKvjtF
Just enough to ignite suspicion.
Within 48 hours:
7 illegal subsidiaries froze
31 shell accounts locked
3 foreign banks cut ties
Stocks plummeted 64%
All major investors pulled out
Kang Hae-jin panicked, calling allies who suddenly “didn’t pick up.”
Because Tae-jun bought their silence.
Internal Destruction
Through a proxy investor, Tae-jun bought 8% of Kang Group silently.
Yize hacked internal documentation.
Board members — long intimidated by Hae-jin — finally saw a chance and voted motion of dismissal.
He was stripped of power before he understood who was behind it.
Public Exposure
The final blow:
A massive whistleblower document landed on every major news desk at the same time.
36 years’ worth of crimes.
The news exploded globally.
By evening, Kang Hae-jin was dragged out of his mansion by prosecutors, screaming, shaking, demanding lawyers that never arrived.
Because Tae-jun made sure…24Please respect copyright.PENANA2rDXL9flVB
no one would save him.
Crushing Ryu Su-ah — The Prison Confrontation
Su-ah’s empire fell next.
Tae-jun didn’t use force.24Please respect copyright.PENANAT1zfHmuGIm
He used truth.
He released photos, financial links, audio recordings, and every trace of her involvement in Kang Hae-jin’s crimes — and her manipulation of Ryu Hae-won’s kidnapping.
She was arrested within 3 hours.
She demanded one last meeting with Tae-jun.
He agreed.
Prison 24Please respect copyright.PENANAP4dlEhKHgQ
Su-ah sat in the cold metal chair, hair disheveled, wrists chained.24Please respect copyright.PENANAdCj2ACaePu
But her eyes still held venom.
“So,” she whispered, “you destroyed me. Congratulations.”
Tae-jun sat opposite her, calm, composed.
“You destroyed yourself,” he replied.
She laughed bitterly.
“You think doing this makes you righteous?”
“No.”24Please respect copyright.PENANAuIk0qAnZS4
His voice was low.24Please respect copyright.PENANA2mwr7E6CwV
“It makes you finished in my world.”
Her smile twitched.
“So… Hae-won won, didn’t she? The little innocent flower.”
“You threatened her life.”24Please respect copyright.PENANAxCPkxPsplP
Tae-jun’s eyes hardened.24Please respect copyright.PENANA6DC9whsGy0
“That sealed your fate.”
Su-ah’s voice broke.24Please respect copyright.PENANAT1Oa4xMXDz
Then:
“You were a choice,” he said quietly.24Please respect copyright.PENANAb7r8gtNmKf
“Hae-won was never a choice. She just… mattered.”
A tear rolled down her cheek — furious, helpless, humiliated.
“You’ll regret leaving me alive.”
“I don’t leave loose ends.”24Please respect copyright.PENANALSjINth8x9
He stood up.24Please respect copyright.PENANAEqHG3YID1k
“And you are not a loose end. You are already finished.”
As he walked out, Su-ah screamed his name until her voice cracked.
The door shut.
She never saw him again.
The Last Night — A Goodbye She Didn’t Know Was a Goodbye
Tae-jun returned to the hotel where Hae-won waited.
He looked exhausted — like a man carrying the weight of every decision he ever made.
She embraced him the moment he stepped in.
“Tae-jun… is it over?”
He didn’t answer.
Just held her.
They kissed like people who didn’t know how to let go.
And when their bodies intertwined again that night, it was different — slower, desperate, full of fear and love and everything he couldn’t put into words.
He held her long after she fell asleep, memorizing her breathing, her warmth, the way she curled toward him.
Because he knew—
he wouldn’t be there in the morning.
Morning — The Empty Side of the Bed
Sunlight reached the bed.
Hae-won blinked awake, smiling softly—
Until she realized.
The other side was cold.
Empty.
His jacket was gone.24Please respect copyright.PENANA9b83iVj1iB
His phone.24Please respect copyright.PENANASzECBdfWpx
His watch.
Only one thing remained:
A folded note on the pillow.
“Live freely.24Please respect copyright.PENANActAbtRqjhD
Live boldly.24Please respect copyright.PENANAuRyWSK6RSf
Live without waiting for me.”
The ink had smudged slightly.24Please respect copyright.PENANA7cttIUjQEr
As if he wrote it in a hurry.
Hae-won’s hands trembled.
“Tae-jun… why?”
She sank onto the bed and cried silently.
That morning, Yize also vanished.24Please respect copyright.PENANAWcXpjFb9Vw
Only Min-jun remained behind with their grandfather.24Please respect copyright.PENANAvTEY0vsZg1
They Gone.
Without a trace.
Years Later — The Rise of Two Women
Ryu Ha-neul — The New Chairwoman
Ryu Ha-neul, sharp, calm, brilliant, stepped forward after the scandals.
She rebuilt the conglomerate from ashes and became one of the youngest, most respected chairwomen in Asia.
The day she took the oath, she placed a white rose for her grandfather at the memorial.
“Grandpa… rest now.”
Kang Hae-won — Building Her Own Empire
Hae-won didn’t inherit Kang Group — she built her own.
By 27, she became the youngest chairwoman in Korea, leading a new conglomerate that valued ethics, transparency, and innovation.
People whispered she had become stronger, colder, untouchable.
But the emptiness in her eyes never disappeared.
Because no success replaced the man who vanished from her life.
Where Did They Go?
No one knew.
Not Korea.
Not Interpol.
Not any intelligence system.
Tae-jun and Yize erased their identities completely.
Ghosts.
Rumors spread — South America, Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia, underground networks, private security, mercenary routes.
But no one ever confirmed anything.
The Shadow Ending
In a nameless place with no city lights, no sound but rain hitting metal roofs—
Yize leaned on an abandoned rail line.
“Hyung,” he muttered, “you think we can ever go back?”
Tae-jun didn’t answer immediately.
He stared into the darkness.
“No,” he finally said.24Please respect copyright.PENANApl0O2xwYsE
“Our lives were never meant for ‘back.’”
Yize exhaled quietly.24Please respect copyright.PENANABKcP3Im38A
“So this is it?”
Tae-jun’s lips curved into a faint, tired smile.
“This is freedom, Yize.24Please respect copyright.PENANA9eDE2g8mRD
Painful, quiet… but free.”
Yize nodded.
They stood in silence.
The night thick around them.
Then Tae-jun stepped forward into the darkness.
One last glance back.
One last smile.
“I’ll see you on the other side,” he said softly.
He disappeared into the shadows.
Yize followed.
The world never heard of them again.
