My new book, "Rebirth: I am the No. 1 Chaebol in South Korea", was released on October 8, 2024. The style of this book is relatively popular and easy-to-understand, and everyone is welcome to read it.

Here is the content of Chapter 1:

---------------------------------------------

Seoul, South Korea.

On December 31, 2023, after the Daehyun Group's year-end management meeting, Lee Gun-soo returned to his residence in Gangnam.

This is a mansion covering an area of 4,500 square meters.

He is the chairman of Daehyun Group, which ranks tenth in South Korea. After inheriting the family fortune from his father, he worked hard for more than 20 years, survived several global economic crises, and maintained the glory of Daehyun Group.

But unfortunately, the desire to dominate the Korean financial world has never been realized.

Despite his successful career, his personal life was less than impressive.

Under his father's arrangement, he married the daughter of a chaebol family whom he disliked. Because he was busy managing the company, the relationship between the couple became increasingly cold. His wife complained that he did not care about her, and she took her two daughters to the United States many years ago.

After a day of meetings, Lee Gun-soo felt hungry.

In the dining room of the mansion, the servants had already prepared dinner for him.

Today is New Year's Eve, so tonight's dishes are more sumptuous than usual. On the pale yellow tablecloth are grilled Korean beef steak, French foie gras, Spanish ham, and exquisite dishes made with sturgeon roe and truffle mushrooms...

For health reasons, Lee Gun-soo manages his diet very strictly. He has never eaten instant noodles since he was a child. It is not that chaebols do not eat instant noodles, but his parents did not allow him to eat it since he was a child, so he developed the habit of not eating it.

In one hour, it will be New Year 2024.

After dinner, he returned to his bedroom and lay down on the bed tiredly.

Looking back on the ups and downs of the past few years, Daxian Group survived the difficult epidemic period, which gave him a sense of accomplishment.

Although he felt very sleepy at the moment, he couldn't fall asleep, so he turned on the TV.

"Lee Mihyun's World Journey" is being broadcast on TV. The host Lee Mihyun is introducing the natural scenery and customs of various parts of the world, and is also raising funds for the poor.

Her voice is still sweet and her expression is still as confident and charming.

Lee Mi-hyun was once the No. 1 beauty and film queen in South Korea, and was also Lee Gun-soo's dream lover.

He once hired Lee Mi-hyun as the exclusive model of Daehyun Group for a high fee in an attempt to get close to her, but Lee Mi-hyun was well-known for her eccentricity in the entertainment industry, and she always kept her distance from Lee Gun-soo.

But Lee Gun-soo could feel that she actually had a good impression of him.

As the show was coming to an end just before the New Year, Lee Mi Hyun said loudly:

"The New Year is coming soon. I wish everyone can bravely realize their dreams in the new year!"

It can be seen that she lived the life she wanted.

With her blessings, Lee Gun-soo gradually closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

…

Ding-ling-ling~Ding-ling-ling~

The alarm clock woke Lee Gun-soo up in the early morning.

Hmm? He felt a strange impulse surging down there, which surprised him.

Starting from one day 12 years ago, he no longer had this reaction when waking up in the morning.

He went to the urology department of Daehyun General Hospital for a checkup, and the doctor diagnosed him with erectile dysfunction!

"There's nothing wrong with your body. It's mainly caused by psychological factors. With all due respect, overwork or marital disharmony can also cause these symptoms."

But when he woke up today, he felt a reaction down there, and it was quite strong. He looked down and saw...

Am I dreaming?

Suddenly his body froze, and he reached out his hand to the side and felt soft skin.

Turning my head to look over there, I saw a young woman lying there naked, her snow-white skin clearly outlining her graceful figure.

Lee Gun-soo sat up suddenly. This was not his apartment.

He shook his head, trying hard to recall what happened last night. He didn't remember leaving the house, so where was this place?

He looked around and saw an exquisite hotel service manual on the bedside table with the company logo of Daxian Hotel printed on it.

He looked up at the dressing mirror on the opposite wall, which reflected his appearance in his 20s.

Did I travel back to the past?!

At this moment, the woman next to him turned over with a moan and opened her eyes in a daze.

"Ah~ My headache hurts so much... You~ President Li!" The woman looked at Li Jianzhu in surprise, and seemed to be mostly sober.

But the one who was even more surprised was Lee Gun-soo, because the person lying there was actually Lee Mi-hyun! His dream girl!

Lee Mi-hyun kept rubbing her temples, worrying about why she drank so much last night.

At this time, Lee Mi-hyun was young and charming, and was at the peak of her career.

For Lee Gun-soo, she is no longer the unreachable Lee Mi-hyun.

"What did you do to me?" Lee Mi-hyun's eyes were wide open, but her expression was full of coquettishness.

It seems that they did go to bed last night. When he realized this, Lee Gun-soo couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Lee Mi Hyun glared at him fiercely.

"You dreamed about sleeping with me, didn't you? ...Finally, you succeeded."

As she spoke, she covered her face with her hands.

At this moment, in the corridor outside the room, two men in hotel waiter uniforms were whispering something.

"Is this the room?" One of them pointed to room 1301.

[Yes, this is the room I saw them go in.]

"After we finish taking the photos, we'll split up and run. Got it?"

[Don't worry.] The other guy nodded.

In room 1301, Lee Gun-soo recalled a time in his previous life when he and Lee Mi-hyun were both drunk, and he wanted to take her to a hotel, but failed.

If we had succeeded then, the result would be like this today.

"Could you please stop staring at me like that?"

But faced with such a charming body, how could he resist admiring it?

"Turn around. How am I supposed to put on my clothes when you're looking at me like that?"

She still spoke so frankly, and Lee Gun-soo liked that about her.

He turned his body away in mock obedience.

"After you get dressed, let's go out separately. Let's pretend what happened last night never happened. Understand?"

[Just pretend it never happened...?]

"Yes, please behave like a gentleman." Lee Mi Hyun regained her composure.

Although Lee Gun-soo turned his body away, there was a large dressing mirror in front of him. Through the mirror, he could see the whole process of Lee Mi-hyun putting on her underwear.

He couldn't help but wonder if she had been by his side, would the Daxian Group have dominated the peninsula long ago? He had thought about this countless times in his previous life.
