At Kyungmoon High School.

It was another typical day for me.

But it didn't seem to be like that for other students

"Given Myongjin's terrific oil deal this time, don't you think it's inevitable that the ranking of Korea's top business conglomerates will change? Currently Mirae is the biggest, followed next by Myongjin, Daesung, and Kusan, while Daeyu trails far behind."

"I guess so. After all, there are no other energy sources as powerful as oil yet. Besides, our country has to import oil from abroad."

"No matter how much I think about it, I just can't believe it was Myongjin, not Mirae, that made it happen this time. Even my father shook his head as if he couldn't believe it."

"Hey, my dad said the same thing. I guess nobody expected that because it was obviously beyond Myongjin's capabilities."

They whispered here and there about Myongjin's giant oil deal with ExxonMobil and Chevron.
