As a former Sergeant from the Special Forces, I was lucky enough to get into the National Intelligence Service (NIS) thanks to a recommendation from the Special Warfare Command’s personnel office.
My first assignment at the NIS was to monitor the Yalu River Bridge around the clock.
Now, the top floor of a four-story commercial building in Dandong, China, has become my workplace.
All I wanted was to coast along as a government employee, collecting my steady paycheck — but incidents keep blowing up around me. I just wanted a quiet life as a civil servant… but that’s easier said than done.
