I'm from Joseon, Young Master.
32 | Gaekhak is an abbreviation for this
Dalgrak_
The three people who had been chatting noisily for a while began to eat quietly.

설여주
(Yum yum - )
Sumin, who was staring intently at Yeoju, who was diligently emptying her rice bowl, approached Jeongguk and whispered softly in his ear.
이수민
(Whispering) But, why does he speak like that?
이수민
Something doesn't seem like kids these days
전정국
Well... it's a bit long to explain...
If I told my mom that I felt like I came from the future in Joseon, she would think I was crazy.
이수민
Just like how Koreans would speak...
설여주
Well, I'm Joseon.
전정국
Oh, Mom..!
Jungkook suddenly cuts off the female lead who interrupted the conversation between the two.
전정국
Are you completely home now?
이수민
Dad will be here in a day or two, and Mom will stay here for now.
전정국
Why did Mom come first?
이수민
Yeah...
이수민
Well... you're starting school soon.
전정국
．
전정국
．．
전정국
．．?
Jungkook drew hundreds, even tens of millions of question marks on his forehead and stared blankly at Soo-min.
As if it were the first time I'd ever heard that
이수민
What's with that expression?
이수민
You didn't know, did you?
전정국
that...
전정국
If I said I knew... that would be a lie...?
이수민
Ugh, you idiot!
Soo-min starts nagging him, saying, "He's not a son, he's an enemy, an enemy," and hits Jeong-guk on the back.
Jeong-guk desperately tried to survive, but it was impossible.
이수민
School starts next week, how can you not know that!
전정국
Ahhh..! If only I had known now...!
이수민
It's like saying, "Okay, that's it," right? - Just
설여주
I...
The heroine, who had been watching the fight between the hats, raised her hand slightly as if she had something to say.
설여주
If you don't mind...
설여주
May I ask what the opening of the school year is?
A few seconds of silence passed between the two people who heard the female protagonist's question.
The female protagonist shook her head in puzzlement at their reaction.
이수민
Don't you know what the beginning of school is...?
설여주
Yes, this place is very different from Joseon, so there are many things I don't know.
The innocent heroine who knows nothing and Soo-min who is frozen after receiving a fresh shock
Even Jungkook, who was caught in the middle of it all and hit his forehead as if he had a headache
From a distance it looked ordinary, but up close it was quite a total mess.
이수민
J, what the hell is that..?
이수민
Are you really from our country...?
전정국
Korean people... that's right
전정국
Anyway, Joseon is also the Republic of Korea...
이수민
?????????
전정국
Just think of me as someone who is very old-fashioned and doesn't know about modern things.
Honestly, I don't really know what's what
이수민
Big_ Anyway, you don't know what the start of the school year is?
설여주
(Nodding -)
이수민
Then no school?
설여주
School is...
설여주
By the way, are you talking about the Seodang?
전정국
Uh... because I'm a high school student...
전정국
Is this a more advanced version of a private school?
설여주
Hmm... Then it would be something like Hyanggyo or Sungkyunkwan.
전정국
Yeah, right
전정국
(Actually, I don't know either)
이수민
Yeoju, you must not have gone to school where you were.
설여주
Yes, because women are supposed to be better at housework than studying.
이수민
Something like what our grandfather would have thought...
Frankly, it wasn't easy to understand Yeoju, who was saturated with Confucianism from head to toe.
Of course, it's natural since a lot has changed since then.
이수민
So what should Yeo-ju do after Jung-kook starts school?
I think it would be too boring to just leave it at home all the time.
But it's not like I can send him out alone.
전정국
mom
전정국
Can't you let Yeoju go to the same school as me?
이수민
Well, I don't know either.
이수민
I'll look into it, you guys rest.
이수민
Jungkook, you wash the dishes
전정국
yes yes -
After Sumin entered the room, Yeoju gently grabbed Jeongguk's collar and pulled him.
전정국
Why is that?
설여주
So, does the start of the new school year mean that we start going to school?
전정국
Similar... but
Hmm_ Jungkook, who had been thinking deeply about something, lightly snapped his fingers and met the female lead's eyes.
전정국
Listen carefully
전정국
It's the start of the new school year
전정국
It's an abbreviation for dog-like school.
설여주
yes..?
전정국
After a dreamy vacation, I'm back in prison.
설여주
...............
설여주
...............Do you hate studying, Young Master?
전정국
Of course, where is the person who likes to study?
설여주
I'm really jealous of you, Master
전정국
why?
설여주
I'm a woman so I don't have the opportunity to learn to write..ㅎ
전정국
No, wait a minute
전정국
So you're saying you can't read now?
설여주
I know a few basic Thousand Character Classic characters...
전정국
ah...
I guess Yeoju doesn't have a concept of Hangul yet.
설여주
I wish I could read too.
설여주
I'm just envious of people who write fluently..ㅎ
Jungkook quietly looks at the female lead who is giving a bitter smile.
He lowered his head and then, as if he had made up his mind about something, he grabbed the female lead's hand tightly.
설여주
D, Master..?
전정국
Mrs. Yeoju
전정국
Have you ever thought about learning to write?
