(2)Making 80 million won in 8 months.
(3)At the age of 25, I was in debt for 30 million won.
(4)It was a debt from the clothing business.
(5)It was too much money at the time.
(6)It wasn’t going to work out if I told my parents.
(7)As soon as I say it, I don’t care if it’s my dream or not.
(8)I should have been dragged home right now and lived the life my parents wanted.
(9)So I didn’t tell anyone around me.
(10)He moved to Seoul with his entire fortune of 340,000 won.
(11)I had a vague idea that there would be something to make money in Seoul.
(12)First of all, I had to find a room, but there was no room I could get for 340,000 won.It rains a lot the next day.
(13)I found a room while carrying an umbrella and carrying a carrier.
(14)I usually went to goshiwon, but no matter how cheap it is,
(15)I had to pay more than 350,000 won.
(16)When I saw about 12 rooms, I was so hungry.
(17)It’s raining outside. Go home now.
(18)I thought it would be realistic to ask for help.
(19)However, if I did that, I thought I would never be able to pursue my favorite dream or do anything I wanted to do again, because the moment I got help, I would not be able to achieve true independence.
(20)And I remembered that I opposed people around me when I said I was doing the clothing business with the money I saved from my part-time job, so I didn’t want to go back as it was.
(21)I wanted to go back with my own success.
(22)I slept in a sauna and found a room for 3 days.
(23)It was a room in a goshiwon that costs 240,000 won a month.
(24)It wasn’t a room, but a storage room used in a goshiwon.
(25)All the internet wires in the goshiwon were on.
(26)The shoe rack that I used to use before is all in here, too.
(27)It was much narrower.
(28)But I thought it was a relief.

(1)First, I unpacked, cleaned, and ate.
(2)The goshiwon gave me free rice and kimchi.
(3)What I ate in my life was the worst out of rice and kimchi.
(4)Maybe it’s because it was a cheap place, but the hygiene was so bad.
(5)Now that I think about it, it was more difficult to eat than to stay in the room.
(6)Still, I was thinking about what’s for free.
(7)There was a rooftop at the goshiwon.
(8)I liked the rooftop. The view from the rooftop in downtown Seoul is really cool.
(9)There were very tall buildings and buildings, and people who lived in those places
(10)I thought about what kind of food to eat and what kind of life to live.
(11)I thought it was a very different height from what I am now.
(12)It was like heaven there and hell here.
(13)But if you go up to the rooftop, you can see the night view with the cool breeze.
(14)I thought it was somewhere between heaven and hell.
(15)I still remember the night view at night, so I often visit there.
(16)Anyway, how can I repay my debt for 30 million won right now?
(17)Will I be able to pay back the target time in 8 months and 8 months?
(18)First of all, I started the delivery service.
(19)After a few days, besides being physically exhausted,
(20)I’m going to gather them up.
(21)I thought it was meaningless to come to Seoul.
(22)I’ve been looking for something else.
(23)by chance
(24)I saw an old man selling glutinous rice cake on the street.
(25)At first, I thought he was just a guy who sells rice cakes.
(26)There were always a lot of people where he went for a few days, and the line was long. I ran into him more than 10 times in a month to see if he came here regularly, and I thought it would be money.
(27)I’ve been chasing you for a few days, telling you what I’m doing, and barely listening to you.
(28)Here’s the bottom line.

(1)You can take off the sticky rice cake for 1,000 won and sell it for 3,000 won.
(2)I’ve been working here for 20 years, and I own a factory.
(3)The monthly income was over 10 million won a month.
(4)At first, I thought it was a lie, but when I saw the number sold, I thought it could really be.
(5)I’ve been following him for a whole week to see what he’s wearing.
(6)On the way to work early in the morning, on the way to lunch, on the way home, on the way home early in the morning, at the restaurant,
(7)While eating, he said, “Where are the most people and where people buy the most?”
(8)What people buy the most and how they sell it to sell the best.
(9)It’s been 20 years since I found out what to say to make people the best living.
(10)Anyway, the conclusion is…
(11)If you bring it for 1,000 won and sell it for 3,000 won, you’ll have 2,000 won left, so you’ll sell 100 a day.
(12)200,000 won for noodles.
(13)That’s what I thought.
(14)It looked easy to sell.
(15)There were people who bought two at a time, and they bought several at restaurants and bars.
(16)There seemed to be some people who came quickly, four or five at a time.
(17)I don’t know what I put on it. I bought 100,000 won worth of rice cake and the next day,
(18)I went out on the street to sell.
(19)I couldn’t sell it for a day.
(20)I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t say a word.
(21)I couldn’t sell any the next day.
(22)The next day, too.
(23)I don’t think I should keep doing this.
(24)He approached people and talked to them and started selling them.
(25)But it was hard to sell one a day.
(26)I was embarrassed, but I worked harder because I became stubborn.
(27)There were many times I walked more than 14 hours a day.
(28)I went into a restaurant and sold it.
(29)No one bought it for me easily.
(30)It’s been about a month.
(31)At least I had almost run out of money, and I was anxious and so anxious.
