职场如战场

老板始终是老板外面看起来有多仁慈，门面功夫做得有多好终究会露出狐狸尾巴。要发飙的时候

所以说在职场上最好不要轻易相信人不然突然被捅一刀都不知道发生什么事情到时连自救的机会都没有了。

以前都不觉得职场如战场，现在慢慢开始可以领会到了。尤其是直属上司是大老板，真的不好做。。。

This is a story of a man who have truly had a will of freedom more than anyone else in the world.

It was uncle who let Shin knew about love and care. If it was not uncle, Shin would have been dead in the cell.

On the day he was released, he was brought to witness his mother and brother's execution but he ever felt guilty at that moment as he truly believed that they deserved to die because of their silly plan resulted him to being tortured. But it took years for him to feel the guilt and haunt him for life.

Part of Shin's middle finger were cut off by his supervisor as a punishment for accidentally breaking a sewing machine.

Park also told him about China, South Korea and food that he had never experienced before. All he had for food in the camp was soupy gruel of cabbage, corn and salt, sometimes rats and insects he caught around the came.

The desire of freedom and food as much as he wanted at the outside world made Shin decided to attempt an escape together with Park. On January 2, 2005, Shin and Park finally made their attempt to escape when they were assigned a task near the fence.
