Job opening
The BodyguardIt had been a little over 5 months since I arrived in Seoul. Having just finished all my examinations, my first semester was drawing to a close. I turned my head as I heard a knock on my door. Groaning, I pushed myself off the couch and went to open the door. It was Erin, a production co-ordinator that I used to work with back at Lucasfilm, before she returned to Seoul.
We were never really close back when we were working together, but had formed a close friendship since I moved over. I guess it helps that she lived in the unit above mine. She helped me find my way around the city and secured the one-room apartment I was currently living in in Ilsan.
“Hey Reggie! Since you've finished your exams, why not look for some part-time work?” She said, holding up a piece of paper and smirking at me. “Get your lazy off the couch! I have found a job you'd like. It's on a part time basis, so you can even continue it when school reopens.” She added, throwing the paper at me before settling down on the couch and patting Troubles. The cat purred and closed her eyes.
Taking up the paper, I skimmed through it. My eyes narrowing. “Miss Kim! This is written in Korean and you expect me to read this? How exactly?” I asked sarcastically. Erin rolled her eyes. “I thought the reason why you came to Korea was to learn Korean? Tsk... You're hopeless.” She chided. “Well I've picked up some basic Korean. But this is way too difficult for me. Translate it for me please.” I explained, tossing the advertisement back at her.
Erin skimmed through the job ad, describing the job requirements. “So basically, they are starting a new show and are looking for a female bodyguard to protect the sole female cast member. As they are only filming once a week, it should be easy to move your time table about to fit it. All they require is a background in martial arts! Plus, it pays well too.” She sai
