There are too many black companies (exploitative companies) in South Korea.

Jung Hwi-kyung, an upstanding young person in South Korea, was returning home after ending their unpaid internship when they helped a suspicious elderly woman. The elderly woman, saying it’s rare to see such a kind young person these days, asked Hwi-kyung to make a wish. Without much thought, Hwi-kyung said “I want to get a job at a good place”….

Little did they know that the wish would focus on “good place” rather than “getting a job.”

Who would have known there was a system where if you get hired at a black company, you return to being a job seeker again?

Grandmother… where in Korea can you even find a company that isn’t a black company….

Jung Hwi-kyung, now a powerful office worker who has tried everything from small businesses, public corporations, large corporations, medium-sized companies, contract positions, permanent contract positions, temporary positions, daily work, to full-time positions, has one thing left to try.

“I will personally employ you.”

“Pardon?”

“Four major insurances guaranteed, separate incentives, all meals provided, separate overtime and weekend pay.”

“…”

“Full-time employment with separate holiday bonuses, freedom to use vacation days, and casual dress code.”

A live-in housekeeper for a parachute-appointed executive director?

Note: “Black company” is a term used in East Asian countries to describe exploitative companies with poor working conditions. A “parachute appointment” refers to someone placed in a high position through connections rather than merit.
