My Girlfriend Wants Victory

---

– Cheolmo: I just came back from the hospital. She’s in the early stages of pregnancy.

– Father-in-law: How is Gyeouri?

– Cheolmo: She cried herself to sleep just now.

– Cheolmo: Jinho, Gyeouri seems really anxious. Can you come to Germany quickly?

I found myself staring blankly at my smartphone for a while after reading my mother-in-law’s message.

Feelings that words can’t express surged up within me. It was a mix of joy, worry, and fear for Gyeouri.

– Ho-woo: I’ll take the earliest flight back.

At least, I was fortunate that my studies didn’t delay my flight.

Shaken by the sudden news of Gyeouri’s pregnancy, I typed my message with trembling hands.

“Wow, being a grandpa at this age.”

My father-in-law patted my shoulder as if to say it was all right and broke into a big smile.

“Jinho, straighten your shoulders! A man shouldn’t be slumping over just because of this!”

I felt a bit guilty. After all, I had gotten his precious daughter pregnant.

If there were someone beside me who had gotten his daughter pregnant through a one-night stand, I would have probably thrown a punch first!

– Father-in-law: I’ll sort out my company shares and come to Germany too.

– Cheolmo: Are you sure?

– Father-in-law: You can’t just live doing whatever you want.

My father-in-law decided to come to Germany after realizing that my mother-in-law might struggle alone.

I could only feel thankful and apologetic.

I had to do well not just for Gyeouri but also for my father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Once my father-in-law started managing his company shares, I hopped onto the fastest flight to Germany.

I should have been more careful to avoid the media, but I was too flustered to do so.

“It smells like an exclusive scoop!”

The media outlets, sensing something odd about my hurried actions, began to gather information.

And soon enough, the news of the pregnancy spread across the internet.

Despite the sudden public reveal of Gyeouri’s pregnancy, congratulatory messages flooded in online.

[Jinho is going to be a dad? News of his girlfriend’s pregnancy breaks!]

└ Son Jinho… congratulations^^… always… cheering… for… you.

└ It’s a bit of a rush, but Jinho can raise it well, right?

└ For real, he probably has more money than all of us combined.

└ What’s this? The public opinion seems better than I expected?

└ Is there any reason it shouldn’t be good? Our guy isn’t incompetent… if it were conservative elders, maybe.

└ You know that? Actually, the elders don’t criticize him.

└ I can tell your spelling is about to malfunction.

└ When I just told my grandparents about the news on Son Jinho, they said it’s normal to have kids at 15 back in the day.

Of course, some haters filled with jealousy over others making astronomical amounts of money left malicious comments.

[Speedy violation: Son Jinho has gotten his underage girlfriend pregnant.]

└ Wow. Look at that article title. How has nothing changed since Son Jinho retired from the national team?

└ I noticed when he couldn’t concentrate on football.

└ Not being able to focus on football led to him being a world-class kicker before and after, oh my!

└ Why are there so many fans of Son Jinho? Are they idiots?

└ For real, calling a younger person “bro” just shows you’re an idiot lol.

└ It’s hilarious that you’re resorting to personal attacks because you’re losing the arguments lol.

└ Yeah, no matter how much you insult our guy here, he’s already earned more than you’ll make in your lifetime haha.

Given the facts laid out by my younger siblings, I had to tone it down.

[Angry Mino Raiola files for damages against the media. “They maliciously tarnished my client Son Jinho’s image. I will not let this go.”]

[Son Jinho, who has appointed Jan and Jan, declares: “There will be no leniency for haters.”]

└ I’m sorry, I’m sorry; I was foolish. Please forgive me just once ㅠㅠ

└ Yeah, good luck, Hokkamo guy, go have a meetup at the police station haha.

└ Hokkamo?

└ It’s an abbreviation for people who bash Ho-woo.

└ Wait, is it really that serious to organize a hate group?

└ There used to be kids who bashed others just because they made money; it seems similar.

└ Well, if someone younger than you is making big money, it makes sense to be jealous.

Anyway.

Back home in Germany, I hugged Han Gyeouri, who had a worried expression, and expressed my gratitude.

“Thanks, Gyeouri.”

Gyeouri’s pregnancy made me feel so many things.

Gratitude and guilt.

‘Even if Gyeouri said it’s okay, I should have postponed this…’

That day, I was defeated by lust.

That day, my lower half controlled my brain.

No matter how much older I became and how wealthy I was from investing in coins,

Before the tempting Gyeouri and the vigorous body of a teenager, I was just an ordinary guy.

[Title: Repost) Shocking comments toward minor Son Jinho and his girlfriend. A glimpse into the level of South Korea.]

└ What’s up with these comments? It’s so disgusting.

└ But seriously, do you think they won’t drop the lawsuit?

└ Who knows? But I hope they don’t drop it. I want to see them get hit hard.

└ It seems like these kids don’t know the meaning of netiquette; malicious comments are getting serious these days.

[Title: Wow. The conditions for dropping the lawsuit are absurd?]

The conditions for dropping the lawsuit would involve reading every single malicious comment they wrote in front of their parents and relatives.

└ Were you so bored that you had to leave hate comments against minors, you idiot?

└ No, I meant my little sister.

└ Your little sister is also pretty pathetic. A basement dweller, huh?

└ No, she’s in middle school.

└ Given the conditions mentioned with their parents, it seems like they’re looking to dismiss lawsuits only against minors.

[Title: I just had my little sister read her hate comments in front of the family.]

Relatives were far away, so we decided to start with the immediate family first.

After the reading session, my mom, furious, threatened to turn my little sister into a baseball bat!

It seems my dad managed to calm my mom down, so she survived this one.

└ Something feels off, doesn’t it? Isn’t that the opposite?

└ Are you disrespecting my dad, who’s a househusband?

└ I’m not; I’m just amazed that our mom is the general.

└ Thanks haha.

└ My dad is the eldest son.

└ ?

[Title: Wow. The sports comments section has become super clean.]

Looks like there’s nothing these days that scares the cyber spirits, but lawsuits seem to terrify them haha.

└ If you’re with Jan and Jan and you’re not scared, are you even human? Hahaha.

└ Seriously, where’s the person who said they would take on the haters by appointing Jan and Jan? ㅅㅂ;;

└ For real, doesn’t the Jan and Jan fee get super expensive?

└ That just shows their serious intent to deal with it.

└ It would be nice if they took on the entertainment industry too, while they’re at it.

└ Seriously, the hate comments in the entertainment industry are intense too.

[Entertainment agency declares no leniency and files lawsuits against excessive haters.]

└ … Huh? Why is this real?

└ It’s my brother’s invested company?

└ For real? Is this what they call positive influence?

└ ㅠㅠ Our kids have been suffering from hate comments; I hope they find some light through this opportunity ㅠㅠ

[Title: Repost) Jürgen Klopp answers a journalist’s question about minors getting pregnant.]

Klopp: The birth of life is something to celebrate, I don’t understand why there would be hate comments. Oh, and the drinks sent over by the company Son Jinho advertised are being enjoyed by the coaching staff.

└ He’s going this far, even overseas?

└ If you have the ability to take responsibility, it shouldn’t matter whether it’s a speedy violation or not, right?

└ Exactly. I really don’t understand what the issue is.

└ ??? Wasn’t the drink sent for Son Jinho to drink? Why is the coaching staff drinking it?

└ The players can’t drink it for fitness reasons. The ad company approved the coaching staff drinking it.

└ Wow. What’s going on? The stock price of the drink company just skyrocketed after this article?

└ Ah! I should have bought it after seeing Jinho advertise it.

└ He’s not just increasing stock prices through investment; he’s doing it just by filming commercials. ㄷㄷ;

└ The embodiment of wealth itself. ㄷㄷ;

└ Seriously lol. Personally, I want my brother’s portfolio so badly; I’d invest just for that.

└ Are coins the same as stocks? lol Coin profits are just beginner’s luck.

I spent most of my time with Gyeouri, excluding training, comforting her.

With my constant expressions of love, Gyeouri began to find her stability.

“Gyeouri, let’s get married after the season ends.”

“You haven’t kept your promise yet!”

I suggested we have the wedding after the season, but Gyeouri shook her head and refused.

‘… Is there really no other way but to prevent Ferguson from retiring?’

Although I still felt overwhelmed by an absurd goal,

I couldn’t retreat now.

This was about keeping a promise to the woman I loved; it was a matter of my pride as a man.

And it was the only way to prove that I wasn’t an ordinary guy.

“Jinho! Congratulations!”

“Seeing your mom and dad, your child will surely be handsome!”

“Thank you!”

Anyway, since the news of Gyeouri’s pregnancy broke, small things began to change.

While walking down the street, it became common for Dortmund fans to congratulate me.

Jürgen Klopp often called me in for consultations.

“Klopp, you know what? I’ve been really happy lately.”

“Yeah, it shows.”

I shared my feelings of happiness with him. We talked about family and responsibility.

Becoming the father of a child that shares my blood truly brought indescribable emotions.

I really didn’t know how to put this feeling into words.

But one thing I could be sure of was this.

Right now, I felt as if I owned the whole world.
