New Strategies Unveiled in 'Negotiation Skills' as Team Heads to Japan

In the latest episode of JTBC's weekend drama 'Negotiation Skills' (협상의 기술), airing on March 23, the M&A team from Sanin, led by Oh Soon-young (김대명), Kwak Min-jung (안현호), and Choi Jin-soo (차강윤), embarks on a crucial overseas trip to secure a supply contract with a Japanese company. The team is under pressure to recover the company's stock price, which has fallen below the 100,000 won support line, and they plan to list the unlisted company Wind to overcome this crisis. To ensure smooth production of bicycles, the cooperation of the Japanese supplier Shimizu is essential.

Despite their urgent mission to secure a better deal than their previous contract, the team faces significant challenges due to cultural differences and language barriers, which have stalled negotiations. Compounding their difficulties, Choi Jin-soo inadvertently reveals the deadline to the Japanese staff, putting them in a more precarious position.

In recently released photos, Choi Jin-soo is seen sharing a friendly moment with Hirose (미야우치 히토미), a staff member from Shimizu, suggesting a bond that transcends language as both are the youngest members of their respective companies. Meanwhile, Oh Soon-young and Kwak Min-jung are seen coaching Choi Jin-soo from a nearby table, adding an element of intrigue to their covert operation.

As the trio's spy mission unfolds, viewers are left wondering about the outcome and whether the teamwork they have built will turn the tide for Sanin. Anticipation builds for the episode airing today at 10:30 PM KST, as fans are eager to see if the M&A team's efforts will pay off.
