엄마
It must be a coincidence. I think so.

아빠
......

엄마
Let's not think bad thoughts now.

아빠
Yeah, uh. That's right.



"Okay, everyone who has solved it, come out and submit it to the teacher."



전정국
......


'2×2=?'

'2×3=?'



전정국
Multiplication tables at this age...


김태형
Wow! What are you? Did you solve it all?


전정국
......


What the heck. Was my partner this handsome?

Your eyes, nose, and mouth are all so pretty. I'm jealous.


"?? Has Jungkook already solved everything?"


전정국
...yes...


"Wow~~ Jungkook got it all right~ Everyone applaud!"


전정국
ha ha ha...

"Jungkook, have you been studying at home? You've been doing really well since last time~"


전정국
What about studying... I've been doing it for decades.

"What? Hahaha~~ Jungkook, where did you learn to speak like that~"

"I'm working on the 3rd level~"


전정국
...Yes... That's right...



김태형
Jeong Jeong-guk, you are really amazing!


김태형
When did you study?


전정국
Not Jeong Jeong-guk, but Jeon Jeong-guk.


김태형
Either way! Don't nitpick!


전정국
What is your name?


김태형
...? You didn't even know my name???


김태형
disappointment!


전정국
......taehyoung kim?


김태형
What! How did you know?


전정국
Yes, it's written all over your pens, notebooks, textbooks, and bags.


김태형
...Wow... Don't act like a big brother!


전정국
He must be 18 years older than you?


김태형
What the heck! My older brother is eighteen!


김태형
If you mess with me, I'll tell everything to my brother~


전정국
Yeah, that's great. Oh my, that's scary.



Ding dong dang dong - Ding dong dang dong -




김태형
Hey! Jeong Jeong-guk!


전정국
Because it's Jeon Jungkook.


김태형
Yeah! Blackout... no, full. state!


김태형
Where do you live?


전정국
Hannam Park.


김태형
Wow! Wow! That's a really big house!


전정국
Yeah, but I'm moving soon.


전정국
I'll be transferring in a few weeks, right?


김태형
Huh? Why?


전정국
Because my dad doesn't listen to me.


김태형
???????


김태형
Jeong Jeong-guk, you have to listen to your father!


전정국
......


전정국
I'm going. It'll only be a few days, but let's have a good time, kiddo~




김태형
Wow... I'm taller than you... What's with the little guy!




'I couldn't reach you, so I was transferred to voicemail...'


아빠
What the hell is this bastard Kwak Yu-tae doing...!!

엄마
Honey, that's not it.

엄마
Why haven't you been in touch? Until just a few days ago...!

아빠
How would I know!


Doo do ...


'The connection is not established...'


아빠
F*ck!



A few weeks later, our family was kicked out of our home just like that day 18 years ago, and we were left sitting on the street overnight.

Even though it was an expected scenario, and this was my second time experiencing this situation,

It was equally heartbreaking to see my mother sobbing and my father venting his frustrations.



아빠
...jungkook jeon.

아빠
How on earth do you not know?

아빠
These were things that even we adults could not have predicted at all.

아빠
How did you know?



전정국
......


전정국
I told you, I'm dying in 2020.


전정국
I died and when I opened my eyes I was here.



전정국
...now.


전정국
Will you believe me now?
