프로게이머 지망생이 5성급 호텔 총지배인이 되기까지 | 호텔놈들 임길남 [Ho! CAST EP.3]

His dream was to go pro in esports. He made semi-pro — but never crossed the final line. Next came cooking, inspired by a K-drama. He started as the lowest kitchen hand, washing dishes, working 20-hour days across three or four jobs to move up to the floor — and became a waiter at Korea's top hotels, serving political and financial VIPs. One day, after serving a major corporation's CEO one-on-one, a call came in to the manager: "Who served me today?" (The manager panicked, sure it was a complaint…) Then 6–7 years of running his own business, COVID, Yeongjong, and his wife's words: "Just meet my husband once." A dinner over pork and soju started a bond that made him the General Manager of HOTEL Serendipity. A man who worked inside others' systems now builds one from zero. More people than information. ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 Intro — "My dream was to go pro in esports" 0:27 From the lowest kitchen hand to the floor 0:56 20-hour days, three and four jobs 1:34 Serving VIPs at Korea's top hotels 2:34 "Who served me today?"
