Maybe it was because they had the same hobby, but Yoo-hyun also found this conversation very interesting.

He chuckled and casually threw out a word without any second thoughts.

How about park golf?

Park golf?

The people who looked at Yoo-hyun blinked their eyes.

Park golf was a kind of golf, but much simpler.

Unlike golf, which required several clubs, you could enjoy golf with just one wooden club.

Also, the club head was wide and blunt, making it easy for beginners to hit.

The next afternoon.

On the bench of the golf practice range, Choi Jeong-bok was giving a lecture on park golf with a book in his hand.

And also, park golf doesnt require much distance, so you can enjoy it in a small space with anyone

Jeong-bok, we got it, so stop there and come over here.

Jeon Il-ho, who had been fidgeting his ears, took out a long box that he had placed on the bench.

It was the box that he had been hiding and not showing since earlier.

Inside were four wooden park golf clubs.

Yoo-hyun spat out a laugh and gave him a thumbs up.

You really have amazing initiative. Youre awesome, bro.

Exercise is all about equipment. I have to prepare at least this much.

Jeon Il-ho shrugged his shoulders and answered as if it was nothing.

Nam Hee-woong, who was next to him, touched the ball inside the box and muttered.

The ball is kind of big.

Its a park golf ball. Dont you know that?

How would I know? You saw it for the first time too.

They had become close enough to bicker with each other.

Leaving Nam Hee-woong and Jeon Il-ho behind, Yoo-hyun tried holding the park golf club.

It was light and comfortable to grip because it was made of wood.

Then Choi Jeong-bok, who was also holding a club, suddenly got up from his seat.

He then picked up a shovel that he had placed next to the bench.

Yoo-hyun tilted his head.

Bro, what are you going to do?

We have to dig holes if we want to play the game. Do you want to come with me?

Do you know how to make them?

When Yoo-hyun asked with a dumbfounded expression, he shook the book.

Its all written in the book. Lets go. You just watch.

Then Jeon Il-ho put down his club and said.

Then Ill go get some flags.

Nam Hee-woong added a word.

I guess I have to draw some course lines.

They all acted as if they had to do it naturally.

Yoo-hyun sincerely clapped for them.

You guys are amazing.

Clap clap clap clap clap.

It was a greeting for those who were truly crazy about what they loved.

The golf course was nothing much.

They just dug a hole in the forest along the trail and stuck a pole in it.

They did draw some lines, but it didnt mean much for a casual game.

Still, they all looked excited about playing the game for the first time.

They even left behind the delicious dinner that they had prepared on the bench.

People, how do we play this game

Choi Jeong-bok, who had the rule book in his hand, explained it one by one.

It was easy to understand because it was similar to golf.

Its just putting the ball in. The posture is the same as golf.

Nam Hee-woong said and Choi Jeong-bok nodded his head.

Thats true.

Then lets start already.

Jeon Il-ho jumped up and Choi Jeong-bok handed him the baton.

You go first, bro.

Okay. Wait and see.

Jeon Il-ho placed the ball on the teeing point that Nam Hee-woong had drawn.

Then he took his stance and swung his club.

Bang!

With a dull sound, the ball rolled forward with a clatter.

Then Yoo-hyun also tried park golf for the first time in a long time.

He had only played it once or twice before because of his boss who lived in the same apartment complex in the past.

There is a web novel that catches the eye by showing the essence of a regression story and creating a cinematic atmosphere. It is The Manly Man (written by Kim Tae-gung), a web novel exclusively on Naver Series. Get the latest information on various webtoon previews at Book Rabbit, the No.1 Book Rabbit!

At that time, it felt trivial.

Bang!

But what was this?

It was more fun than expected.

The distance was not much, but it was fun to send it to where I thought.

The people who tried it also admired it.

This is fun too!

From then on, park golf became part of Yoo-hyuns daily life.

The holes that started with four gradually increased to 18.

Naturally, the course became a narrow and long circumferential road that started from the forest behind the Yeontae factory overlooking the reservoir, to the forest behind the Chinese restaurant, and to the forest behind the Yeonseung-ri seolleongtang restaurant.

It was impossible to make a course without doing this.

At first, there were worries.

But when I saw the finished product, the course was quite well-made.

The trees that were scattered naturally became obstacles, and the curves and different soil materials in the forest added fun to the course.

Above all, the scenery of each course was amazing.

Thanks to this, Yoo-hyun also fell in love with the charm of park golf.

Especially, he liked the 1st to 4th courses that surrounded the reservoir.

The sparkling water under the maple forest looked so cool.

It was a landscape that revealed the advantages of Yeontae-ri village on a high hill.

As I moved to the forest behind the village while playing park golf, I inevitably attracted peoples attention.

They didnt come close yet, but as time passed, more and more people came to see.

Jeon Il-ho was overreacting to some of them making noise.

Then, the restaurant owner said.

Oh my, oh my! There is someone in our village who likes Han Ju-im.

Really? Who?

When Nam Hee-woong asked, the restaurant owner whispered in his ear.

You know, that

Wow! Really? Ive seen her face often on the golf course.

Thats because she wants to see Han Ju-im.

Wow, they are both good-looking. They look good together.

It was a sound that even Yoo-hyun next to him could hear.

Yoo-hyun shook his head vigorously, and Nam Hee-woong poked Yoo-hyuns side.

Brother, do you want me to tell you who it is?

No. Im fine.

Hey

Yoo-hyun answered, but both of them gave him a mischievous look.

If he stayed still like this, he felt like they would tease him more, so Yoo-hyun said to the restaurant owner.

She came all this way and took care of him, and she seemed to be full of curiosity about golf, so he offered her a suggestion.

Auntie, you came all this way. Do you want to try it?

Oh? I cant do this. It costs a lot of money.

No. You only need one club. Come here.

Yoo-hyun lifted up the restaurant owner and handed her a club.

Then he explained kindly one by one.

How to hold a club is

The owner listened to Yoo-hyuns explanation and swung the club.

Was it beginners luck?

Bang!

The ball hit well and rolled forward with a clatter.

Oh madam, nice shot!

Nam Hee-woong laughed and gave her a thumbs up, and the two Yeonseung-ri people also applauded.

The owner smiled brightly and asked.

Did I do well?

Yes. Very much.

Yoo-hyun also gave her a thumbs up.

That was when it started.

The villagers started gathering in the forest one by one.

One day,

Lee Young-nam walked with Bae Yong-hwan, the owner of Bokdeokbang, along the end of Yeontae-ri village.

There was a large hill in front of them.

In the past, there was a wide road laid out in a straight line here, and that road separated Yeontae-ri and Yeonseung-ri villages.

But due to a landslide, the road and the village connection were completely covered.

Now, if you wanted to go to Yeonseung-ri village, you had to go through the mountain trail.

Lee Young-nam kicked the edge of the hill with his foot and said.

Because of the landslide, we lost contact with Yeonseung-ri.

Didnt we agree to fend for ourselves? Its not the bosss fault.

Bae Yong-hwan tried to console him.

From the hillside road at the end of the mountain, peoples laughter erupted.

Hahaha.

Bang! Bang!

Looking at the villagers playing golf, Lee Young-nam opened his mouth with a nostalgic expression.

He solved it all by himself.

I didnt know he could use this method. Why dont you talk to Yeon-seung-ri about it?

Of course. But isnt it amazing? He won over peoples hearts before he even started the work. Who would refuse him?

Right. Maybe thats why my niece who came to visit is so smitten with him.

At Bae Yong-hwans words, Lee Young-nam raised his eyebrows and asked.

Oh, the mischievous Hyun-ji?

Yes. Haha.

Bae Yong-hwan smiled awkwardly.

Some more time passed, and the villagers became more and more addicted to park golf.

It was free and easy for anyone to play, so it was perfect for a hobby in a boring village.

As the village was filled with new energy, Yoo-hyun went home once.

Of course, his mother was too busy to see him for long.

She was still apologizing on the phone.

Yoo-hyun, Im really sorry. I didnt expect so many orders to come in.

Its good that your business is going well. Im happy just to see your face.

Oh dear. I only said I was worried about you, but I couldnt even take care of you properly.

Hey, you saw how healthy I am. Im having a great time here.

I know. But

His mother sounded sorry again, so Yoo-hyun smiled and changed the subject.

Dont worry about it and come visit when you have time.

Dont even say that. Your father says he wants to go alone.

Haha. But dont let him go by himself. He might want to live here.

That would be nice, wouldnt it?

What? Hahaha. Mom, youre joking.

-

A brief silence showed that his mother was serious.

Yoo-hyun said goodbye with an awkward expression.

He added a gentle word.

Mom, I love you. Take care.

-Yes. Yoo-hyun, I love you too. Thank you.

He wanted to express his feelings while he could, rather than regretting later that he couldnt.

He finished the call in the forest behind the factory and returned to the platform in front of the site.

Jo Ki-jung and Kang Jong-ho were still sitting on the platform.

When Yoo-hyun sat next to them, Jo Ki-jung said with a bite of pork belly.

Im bored.

Me too.

Kang Jong-ho nodded as if he agreed.

Why? If youre bored, you can go out and come back.

Yoo-hyun asked casually and ate a piece of green onion pancake.

The restaurant owner gave them some green onion pancakes with lots of seafood, which tasted good.

Jo Ki-jung muttered as if he had given up.

Nah. Going out is not fun anymore. Its more comfortable here. Theres no work, and the villagers are nice to us.

Theyre not only nice to us here? They even gave us pork belly from the next village.

Kang Jong-ho sneered and pointed at the pork belly on the platform.

It was pork belly that Jeon Il-ho, the owner of the seolleongtang restaurant, brought when he stopped by the second hole of the park golf course.

Jo Ki-jung also added a word.

They almost gave us cell phones for free, and they even gave us cases this time. If we say we work with him, we get a free pass everywhere.

Isnt that better?

Yoo-hyun chuckled and asked.

It was then that Park Chul-hong, the foreman, came out of the building with a wobbly walk.

He touched his stomach and said,

Ah, Im bored.

Look at that. Hes just like you guys.

Jo Ki-jung and Kang Jong-ho laughed and pointed at Park Chul-hong.

Why are you bored, foreman?

At Yoo-hyuns question, Park Chul-hong complained as if he wasnt complaining.

Just. Theres nothing to do. I didnt know those bastards in Mokpo would be so quiet.

Do you want to switch back?

No way. I dont like that.

Park Chul-hong, the team leader, shook his head and sat down on the floor.

He then picked up a piece of boiled pork and ate it, followed by a glass of rice wine.

He looked very relaxed, unlike his stiff demeanor at the beginning.

It wasnt just his words that changed, but also his facial expression and his weight. He looked happier and healthier.
