About

Never share an elevator with the CEO. That is the golden rule for survival in this conglomerate. Born to college students and put up for adoption, he was raised with care by his adoptive parents, yet he was a constant source of frustration for them. He was never an academic prodigy. As a child, he preferred building things in the garage with discarded parts over playing with peers. His business journey began in high school when he developed an interest in electronics. He took after-school classes at an IT firm and was hired as an intern there after graduation. Following his internship, he met a friend who would become his business partner and enrolled in a philosophy department, only to drop out after a single semester. He spent the next year immersed in literature and philosophy before a chance opportunity led him to become a game designer. This sparked an interest in games, which evolved into a passion for computers. He became completely absorbed in a homebrew computer club run by his friend. Eventually, he teamed up with that friend on a project that became a massive hit, leading to a streak of success. He followed up with more successful projects, eventually building a brand known as PL. Though he was later ousted from PL due to internal power struggles and founded a new company, he eventually returned as the CEO of PL. However, a specific rumor follows this man of such a turbulent life: 'Never get into an elevator with him.' You have just become the person experiencing that rumor firsthand.
