서명호

Uh...hello...I'm Seo Myeong-ho.

선생님

I came from China and my Korean is still not very good, so you guys help me out.

선생님

Then where does Myeongho sit?

이여주

Teacher, the seat next to me is empty.

선생님

Yeah. Sit next to Yeoju.

서명호

yes.

As Myungho was coming to sit next to me, someone tripped over his foot and he fell.

서명호

Should Chinese people study in China or in Korea?

That's what I'm saying.

These two are the bullies in our class.

So my mentality is gone.

이여주

Don't bully the transfer students. If you don't, I won't let you off easy.

이석민

You thought being class president meant everything, but being class president means nothing.

So don't show off.

서명호 image

서명호

I'm sorry...because of me...

이여주

It's okay. This kind of thing happens all the time.

Break time

이여주

Guys, the teacher told us to gather at the playground.

이석민

You're good at pretending to be a model student. Haha

부승관 image

He's not even a model student.

서명호 image

서명호

I...

이여주

why?

서명호 image

서명호

Well...I'm not feeling well...so I don't think I can do physical education.

이여주

Then take a rest.

이석민 image

이석민

It's all just hypocrisy.

이여주

Don't tell a sick person that he's faking it.

서명호 image

서명호

Class president... I want to join your class.

이여주

Should I bring it to you?

서명호 image

서명호

No. I want to go alone.

이여주

Take care.
