I WAS MADE A TRASH.
Kim Kang, the head of the Korean Player’s Association’s human resources department sighed.
you’ve been very unlucky Mr. Hyukjin.’
There was no other way for him to express it.
He sighed as he looked at the government-sponsored free “player aptitude test result’.
Name:Kim Hyukjin
Talent only:01T0……
Talent Type: Unmeasurable.
where ‘O’ is the active talent plate, and ‘T’ is the dead talent plate.
The talent plate is similar to the growth plate.
Just as the growth plate determines the height, the talent plate determines the ability.
The more talent plates one have, the higher their chances of developing skills as a player.
It’s not like the test results from five years ago.’
He got into the car.
Kim Kang decided to pass this on to the person concerned.
This was the last expression of his conscience.
In fact, if the owner of this test paper had only been gifted with timing, he would have surely excelled as a player.
He had 67 talent plates, which was unheard of for anyone in the world.
‘Considering that the inspection limit of the Korean inspection machine is 67… … …’
He could have had a lot more talent.
In other words, this man was a natural genius.
Shin Hyung, the president of the Players’ Association, looked at the results and said.
[Ah…… Why the hell did you fail to discover such a talented person!]
It wasn’t groaning, it was almost anger.
Why did you fail to discover such a talented person ?
The truth is he was discovered five years ago.
The man with ridiculous number of talent plates.
‘The genius…… a real genius….’
The sad thing was, this real genius got tested on the same day as Jin Cheol, the youngest son of Korea’s No.1 conglomerate Sung Shin group.
Player’s result are checked by Sung Shin group, before getting announced publicly.
It was 5 years ago.
Jin Cheol looked at the test results and said.
67 Talents ……what kind of bullshit is this…..Is this f**ker trying to f**k with my glorious day.
On that day Jin Cheol was confirmed with a talent plate of 44.
It was a pretty decent talent, but the young conglomerate did not like the fact, of some one other than him getting the spotlight on the day he got tested.
Trash……make him a trash tell him …… he has NO TALENT
Kim Kang lamented inwardly.
“That damn mother f**ker… ..
He just took away the opportunity for a person, who might have turned to be the best player in the world.
For a moment Kim Kang thought he was just a dog sh*t. Even if he was in a position to help Players, he couldn’t do anything.
He lifted his head, and looking at the roof of the car, he said to himself.
Is this Korea……maybe they should rename this f**king country as Republic of Sung Shin.’
He shook his head
‘Kim Hyukjin, you were unlucky… Your opponent was Jin Cheol.“
Contrary to Kim Hyukjin who was born as a commoner and had nothing since his birth, his opponent was someone, who was born with everything.
You were……..just unlucky.’
With some hope Kim Kang called Hyukjin for a free re-test.
But the results were disastrous.
He had only one active talent plate.’
Kim Hyuk-jin is 30 years old now.
It is said that from the late 20s, one’s talent plates starts closing rapidly, if it isn’t used properly.
Almost all of Hyukjin’s talent plates were closed.
At this moment, he is really a NO TALENT
While he was Kim Kang was in his deep thought, the car stopped in front of a worn down apartment.
Kim Kang, got out of the car and went into a basement room.
When he knocked at the door, a man who looked pale and thin, with his skin sticking to the bones opened the door.
Kim Kang handed him the test results and said
“I’m sorry to inform you this, but even after doing the re-test, there isn’t any ……”
Kim Kang said to himself.
I’m sorry’
The sight of dead Genius made Kim Kang feel bad.
Kim Kang handed him a drink set with condolences and spoke.
“I heard that you are studying for the Civil service Exam. Do your best…. There’s saying that, if GOD closes one door, then he might open another….. so don’t lose hope.”
“ Thank you.”
There was no life and expression on Hyukjin’s face.
Seeing that Kim Kang felt bitter, but there isn’t anything he could do to him.
* You were unlucky Hyukjin.’
He just patted his shoulder and left the room.
In a basement room.
A place which used to be filled with smile and happiness.
Now there was nobody.
It was just a dark room.
The damp air rushed in.
‘ Failure….. I’m used to this.’
There stood a man with a paper in his hand which said.T
NO TALENT.
I wasn’t expecting much. I went because, they let me re-test for
free.’
He looked at the paper again.
NO TALENT.
He laughed out loud, which started echoing through the entire house.
‘Thad……….no talent’
Talent….no talent……..
“ Hahaaaaaaaaaahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”
He stroke his head on the floor.
‘I would have awakened as a player……if I had a talent.’
‘I would have got chosen by a guardian’…….if I had a…..talent’
‘I won’t be living such a stinky life……if I had a…..talent.’
‘I wouldn’t have let my mother die of overwork……if I had a…….talent.’
I wouldn’t have failed the Civil Service Exam 3 times……if I had a…….talent.’
‘I wouldn’t have let my sister work as a construction labour…..if I had a….talent.’
‘I would have saved my sister from leukaemia….if had a…..talent.’
‘I would……………..had………….talent……talent…..talent….’
The man fell on the floor and closed his eyes.
A mobile phone fell down from his pocket which lit up and showed
APRIL 26 / 2028.
11:58 PM
The sun came up and brought in light into the room filled with darkness.
The man opened his eyes for a new day and a new beginning…
