Manager Kim: Chapter 81 Recap
Previously in the manhwa, the special task force is preparing to infiltrate North Korea. The Vice Minister and his team are on their way to enter North Korea, deciding to do it in a quiet manner so as to keep their location private from prying eyes. Just as they discuss their plans not to bring a helicopter, an unknown helicopter belonging to the special task force appears in the air.
Jincheol stole the military helicopter to proceed with his plans at his own place, much to the annoyance and dismay of the Vice Minister. The Vice Minster’s subordinates inform him that there are traces of someone accessing the floor plans of Beol Ba Wi from their database. Jincheol leaves the special task force’s team behind and reaches Beol Ba-Wi in advance with his mismatched team of fathers who understand the compulsion to protect their daughters.
Mr. Kim, in his dire state, is surprised to see Jincheol and his friends gathering to fight a team of North Korean soldiers. Jincheol and the doctor tend to Mr. Kim as the mysterious laundryman begins fighting the soldiers single-handedly. Mr. Kim is surprised to see him fight and asks Jincheol about his identity. Jincheol tells him that he is an ex-officer but more than that, he is also a father who sympathizes with Mr. Kim.
Jincheol gets a flashback when he asks for the laundryman’s help, and how the ex-officer was initially reluctant but decided to come along after Jincheol shared Mr. Kim’s story. Jincheol joins him to fight the barrage of soldiers, and Mr. Kim finds his way to Baek Dan Yeol. Mr. Kim is greeted with the sight of Dan Yeol holding a gun to the female prisoner’s head and shooting her after Mr. Kim’s noncompliance.
