"Has Uncle Gongmo left?"

"Yes."

When they went up to the library on this floor, the two of them were deep in discussion, laying out the DMC map and a list of companies.

"Is the outline coming together?"

"Government agencies and organizations like KONJIN, the Korea Media Rating Board, and the Broadcasting and Telecommunications Review Commission have all moved in, so there's no issue there. The only remaining concern is the film studios in Chungmuro and independent productions." Looking at father's expression, it didn't seem too bleak. "Don't worry too much about Chungmuro; there are plenty of companies following my lead. The real problem is the broadcasting companies."

"Isn't the issue with public broadcasters related to government policies? They've already announced plans for individual studio relocations, so it should be fine, right?"

"The administration changes every five years. I can't guarantee anything until the new broadcast headquarters is completed."

I understand his concerns, but I can't bring myself to tell them to stop worrying. Cable is expanding, and with the introduction of comprehensive programming channels, the platform will be overflowing. I can afford to be patient.

"Don't rush things too much. It will take a few years to complete, and media companies will gradually come in. As for you, have you considered acquiring DCN?"

"As long as there are no issues with film procurement, there shouldn't be any operational difficulties. But revenue..."

"As I mentioned earlier, don't think about revenue for the time being. You have enough capital already. Just focus on planting strong seeds."

Father still looked anxious, but Oh Sehyun was different.

He knows exactly how much money has been accumulated in the United States and Korea.

"Hey, when it's time to give, just give it. No matter how much those cable broadcasters eat up, it's just a few pots of water in the Han River."

Just a few pots? More like a lake. We need to make a strong foundation from the beginning.

"How many pots will become how many lakes. Start with movies, dramas, games, entertainment channels. That's how you should start."

"What? Four of them?"

"If you're in charge of film content acquisition, there shouldn't be a problem, right? And take this opportunity to produce dramas and variety shows as well. Half of them can be produced in-house, and the other half can be rerun on public channels. That should be enough."

If Father hesitated due to anxiety, I would have no choice but to push him to unleash his potential. We need to harness all of Father's dormant potential.

"Building an Asian film distribution network, operating a film studio, and even running a cable network will keep you busy."

Oh Sehyun, who understood my intentions, didn't forget to lend his support. "I'll also look for some talent in that field. Let's create a proper media company this time."

Seeing Father's face, which displayed a mixture of excitement and anxiety like a student about to take an exam, we both burst into laughter.

The year 1999 was a year when the emotions of the end of Nostradamus and the hope of the new millennium were intertwined.

Our household was no different.

On the first day of the new year, the attitude of the gathered family members felt oddly awkward.
