Joo-won followed Jin-gook into the Sys Sec block of NIS Every day, hundreds and thousands of hackers tried to hack into NIS’s confidential files Never were any of the a dent in the firewall

Everybody in the Sys Sec block see around with various diagnostic papers on the hack Everything around was a mess And from what he understood immediately, all the attempts to unfreeze failed

Joo-atched the frozen screens of the monitors of the Sys Secs Then he closed his eyes and concentrated

Suddenly, out of nowhere, he re him, “Remember, Joo-won! If the screens are still frozen, it means that the hacker’s not done yet Itfor whatever he or she came for”

Soook When they saw Joo-won, their jaws dropped and they turned all flustered “Sir,” they said, “we have ed to unfreeze your system”

He opened his eyes “Take ook

Jin-gook looked at hih not to protest Joo-won saw that soook’s computer

“Sir, we have done all that we could But we don’t kno long we can hold on against the assault It was very powerful, and beyond our level But we have done our best,” one of them said

“Good!” said Joo-won, before Jin-gook could even say a word

Joo-won occupied Jin-gook’s chair and the newbies stood back to watch the legendary Kim Joo-won at work

The first thing Joo-won did was set up an intricate trap The hacker had first led them to believe that they were in control of the server, but if he was right, the hacker had already had a backdoor The hacker was just using this freezing of syste really crucial was there, that Joo-as nized the pattern in which this hack took place But he needed to confirm whether the person he suspected was the hacker or not

He waited like a child aits for a candy Then suddenly, the systeain

“shi+t!” cried Jin-gook

But Joo-won couldn’t help but laugh The rookies standing by seeain

“Sir, what about the confidential files?” asked Jin-gook

“Don’t worry!” he assured, “the hacker won’t do anything But do tell me after all the syste froht, the files that were downloaded will be from my system back in my office”

Jin-gook looked at hione crazy But Joo-won knehat he was doing, and what had happened

He was outfoxed

And there is only one person who has ever ed to do that to Kim Joo-won
