[Clang-] ((The sound of a spoon falling from the female protagonist's hand to the table
No, what the hell is this, out of the blue while I'm eating breakfast?
"And Taehyung doesn't know Korean well, so you help him out a lot. You learn English well from Taehyung."
"Huh? He speaks Korean well."
"You seem to be doing well. If you don't learn English well this time, Taehyung will send you back to America with him, so figure it out."
Eek, if this keeps up, won't I be sent to America...?
Nayeoju shot a desperate look at her father, who was sitting at her side eating, but it was no use. He was always on Yeoju's side, but this time, it seemed he was out of the question. Yeoju, feeling unnecessarily annoyed by the lack of support, glared at Taehyung, but he simply smiled and made no other gesture.
Our Nayeoju, who had no choice, showed a soulless smile and cried out inwardly thousands of times.
What an unlucky guy.
.......
Finally, the long-awaited Monday (that I hoped would never come) arrived, Taehyung's first day at Yeoju's school...
In preparation for any unexpected repercussions, the female lead, who had assumed the pose of a secret agent delivering a top secret before going to school, carefully handed a note to Taehyung.
The content of the note was that Taehyung also wanted to protect himself at school.
first,No one at school should know that we're roommates (if rumors spread, it'll be a hassle and a nuisance for both of us).
Second,If you ask about our relationship, I'll unconditionally say we're a very close son and daughter. (This isn't a lie, so there's nothing to hide.)
Third,At school, I'll try my best to avoid using English with my peers. (I don't want to hear people say I'm worse at English than elementary school students and have to learn from them.)
"I understand the first and second, but not the third?"
"No, why on earth?"
"That's because my mom and your mom told me to teach you English well?"
(Because my mom and your mom told me to teach you English well?)
"Oh, man. I don't understand."
Kim Taehyung, who laughed heartily as if the house was going to float away (only Na Yeo-ju didn't know which part was the laughter button), tangled my slightly sticking out aegyo hair with his finger and then a smile spread across his face that he had never shown once in (three days) and said.
"Do you know what promise means?"
"Promise, promise... Ah...! Promise."
"That's why the third one won't work. Promise."
"Ah... because of the promise I made with mom?"
"Well, that too..."
"But it doesn't benefit you to teach me English."
"That's true. But I still try to keep my promise."
I heard an unexpected answer from Kim Tae-hyung, who I thought was as far from Yugoslavia as the distance between Korea and the United States, because he only hung out with gangsters with his bright yellow hair.
For the first time, I thought that maybe Kim Taehyung was a pretty good guy.
Episode_
"You're the first one I call someone else like this"
After calling her Pumpkin, Taehyung started speaking English like a native speaker, and Yeoju was lying on the bed in her room, just rolling her eyes.
"What on earth did he say..."
I wouldn't know what he said anyway, so I went to the Korean information site Green Window and started typing something.
Why it's called Pumpkin
Search. The sentence "The flashy, flashy, and noisy American love of nicknames!" appeared at the top. Nayeoju, who was reading through the site, stopped at a certain sentence.
"I guess it's because pumpkin is a favorite vegetable among Americans, and it's used in pumpkin pie and pumpkin pudding, so cute girls and pretty women are often given the nickname pumpkin...?"
So, to Americans, pumpkin isn't a bad word to use because it's ugly, but rather a nickname...?
After learning the meaning of pumpkin, Na Yeo-ju turned into a tomato whenever Kim Tae-hyung called her pumpkin.
