Cheon Woo-Jeong, who was looking for a high-paying short-term part-time job. While working as a cruise staff member, he met a passenger…

“Do you also interpret?”

“English and… a little Filipino.”

“Would you mind using your mouth for me and taking my money, Cheon Woo-Jeong?”

The man suggested. I needed money, and he said he needed my mouth. So the whole fault was mine for interpreting his words so literally.

*“Just shut your upper mouth and open your lower mouth.”

“…Huh?”

“This is fun. Did you think I could do something great?”

“I think there’s some misunderstanding. You clearly said you needed an interpreter back then…”

“When did I?”

“You said that…”

“This is no fun, Cheon Woo-Jeong. It’s not enough to crawl on all fours and beg you to be nice to me.”*

When I came to my senses, the ship was already drifting in an unexpected direction.
