We decided not to cross the line.

Episode 15. The Battle of Yonsei-Korea

Why would you put gauze on your lips just because of that?





No. The habit of biting my lip

I'm telling you, we need to fix this while we have the chance.

Does it make sense to bite your lip until it bleeds?





"Okay. I'll fix that, so..."

I don't think this is quite right.





No, no. I have to fix it properly this time.

First, apply this ointment to your cracked lips,

Apply gauze and put on a bandage.





Ah...it's really fine, so why are they overreacting like that...

Who do you think is to blame for my chapped lip...

It's so frustrating...





"Okay. Then I'll go to the restroom and take care of it."





I told you I would do it for you. I even washed my hands on my way in.





[Knock knock knock]



It was then.

There was a knock, and then the door opened.



"Did I get late again...?"


"Ah, it was here!!"
 
Class is over, right?

"Wait a minute, what's wrong with your lips? Did you fall?"





It was an unexpected visitor.


The representative came in.





Oh... my gosh... it's one problem after another...





"What brings you here, CEO?"



Mr. Hunji asked with an unwelcome expression.





Without even glancing at Hunji's question, the representative,

He seemed very surprised to see my lips.





"What's wrong with your lips? Did something happen?"





The representative asked once again.





No, it's not. I just bit my lip a little...

I bled a little.

It's nothing. It's okay.





Anyway, I feel like I need to explain the situation before moving on.

I answered.





"It's not a big deal? Your lips are really chapped."

Hunji, did you cause trouble in class? Why are you biting your lip?





It's true that my lip split because of Hunji... heh



I thought to myself and chuckled.





at that time,

As Hunji opened the ointment lid

It came closer to me.





"CEO,

I was just about to apply ointment, so please come out for a moment.





Why are you applying that??

I didn't graduate, but I did get into medical school.

"Give that to me... I'm better than you."





Why is medical school being brought up here just for applying ointment?





Mr. Hunji didn't back down either.





Wow... what is going on right now...

This is driving me crazy...





I just felt like running out of here.





Teacher, put your lips to mine.

No, just stay put. Don't move.

I don't want the ointment to get into my mouth...

Don't move.





In the end, Hunji even personally applied ointment to my lips.

They even neatly(?) attached a bandage to the gauze.




Later, when I got home and looked in the mirror

The gauze was attached so thickly,

got into a gang fight and got beaten up really badly

He looked like a school bully.




And, I found out later...

Hunji is good at everything physical, yet

My hands were clumsy. No wonder...;;




Hunji, who was standing a step back

The representative, with a cold expression, said.





Classes are all over for today, right?

I came here to have dinner together to celebrate becoming friends,

It's okay, right?





"What? Dinner?"





"Seriously, we agreed to be friends, so what's with the 'yes' again?"

Call me whatever you like... I'll call you Jeong-ah now, too.

Got it?





Why do you make your friend act so coercive?





Mr. Hunji, who never gives up...





"Hunji, I noticed you have a radio schedule tonight."



All the employees left work today saying they had plans,

It's because I have no one to have dinner with...

You'll eat with me, right?





Uh... yeah, I guess...

What's so hard about having dinner together?





Since things have turned out this way

It feels awkward to use honorifics anymore, and

I thought it would be better to just be friends.





If Hunji's class is over

Now I have to head to the office and head to the radio!!

If I don't move a little earlier, it overlaps with quitting time.

It's dangerous.

Go and do well!!





I thought Hunji's sulky expression was cute,

I decided to just enjoy myself a bit.





I'll send the assignment via text later.

Take care of your schedule, Hunji.





"Teacher, let's finish what we couldn't talk about earlier later."





Without even a separate greeting to the representative, Mr. Hunji

He just nodded and walked out.





As soon as Hunji left, the representative asked.



What was it you couldn't tell me earlier?





Ah... I was in class earlier...

There are parts I couldn't fully explain...

Is that what you're talking about..





I glossed over it.





What should we have for dinner?

What do you like?

I'll treat you to something delicious to celebrate us becoming friends.





The representative asked with an excited expression.





Well... is it okay if I eat whatever I want?

I do have some comfort food, though...





"What is comfort food? Well... is it a new menu item?"





No... that's not it,

What we usually call soul food is Konglish.

Actually, "comfort foot" is the correct expression...

Sorry... I wasn't trying to show off..





"ah...

I thought "soul food" was correct too because it's English, but

So that was Konglish.

It's the kind of soul food that makes you feel good when you eat it, right?





Oh, right... pork cutlet is my comfort food..

When I was little, whenever I went grocery shopping with my mom, we always ate pork cutlets.

I had a milkshake for dessert.





Wow... I see...

Did I have something like that...

I'll have to think about it today.

What my comfort food is..



Anyway, today I was busy with our teacher Jeong-a's class.

I worked hard, so I should eat some pork cutlet to feel good.

There's a great pork cutlet restaurant near the office..

The female employees like it.

Shall we go there? Is that okay?





"Yeah, good!!"





"Jeong-ah, you're a much cooler woman than I thought!!"
