Our A-TEEN
00. Eighteen and the Beginning


I opened my eyes and was greeted by the bright morning sunlight.

Somehow I felt like I woke up a little earlier today.


김여주
I hope today goes smoothly.

At the school I transferred to this time

I'd rather live so quietly that I'm treated like I don't exist.

The school had an exterior and interior structure that looked like something out of a teen movie or drama.

To be honest, the school was so pretty that I liked it.

After talking to the teacher in the staff room, I headed to the classroom with the teacher.

The teacher motioned for me to wait in front of the classroom, and I stood there quietly waiting.

담임
Okay, everyone, be quiet! How come nothing has changed even though you're eighteen? There's no change.

학생 1
Hey, teacher! It's A-Teen! A-Teen!

담임
Ateen is a total piece of crap! Be quiet, there's a transfer student here today...

As soon as the teacher mentioned the transfer student, everyone started asking questions about him.


김민규
Teacher, are you pretty?


윤정한
Hey, you don't even know if someone is a man or a woman, so why are you asking if they're pretty first?


권순영
What the heck lol that's a question like Kim Min-gyu's

담임
Zungi Haru… (Be quiet)

Everyone became a little quiet at the sound of the teacher's teeth clenching.

담임
Lady, you can come in now.

I entered the class cautiously at the teacher's words.

I don't know if it was because I was a woman, but everyone cheered.

담임
Hey, I know this might be boring, but would you like to introduce yourself?


김여주
Ah… My name is Kim Yeo-ju, and I have to transfer schools due to some circumstances. Please take care of me…

담임
Everyone, it's your first day in Yeoju, so do your best! Today's the day you have three electives, right? Hurry up and move on~ And Yeoju's seat is...

Seat...! Seat is the problem.

Please be next to a quiet friend or just

If you sit alone

담임
You can sit next to Min-gyu over there.

Min-gyu…?


김민규
Hey, heroine, come here!!

A boy named Min-gyu waved his hand and greeted me.

I went to my seat and sat down

Min-gyu started talking in small talk.


김민규
Hello, Yeoju. I'm Kim Min-gyu. Kim Min-gyu! Please call me Min-gyu. The other kids won't allow it, but I'll let you call me Min-gu.

At Min-gyu's chattering, the two boys in front of him turned around and started talking to him one by one.

It seemed like these three were friends.


윤정한
Hey, you must be embarrassed. Speak slowly. And why are you acting so friendly?


권순영
Can't you see he's flustered? Haha. You're probably the only one who's asked to be called by a nickname since day one.

When I saw Min-gyu's friends and smiled awkwardly, the two of them started talking to me.


윤정한
Hi, I'm Yoon Jung-han. I'm friends with this guy Kim Min-gyu... If he bothers you, tell me and I'll clean it up.


김민규
Am I an object? Get rid of it.


권순영
You be quiet… I’m Kwon Soon-young… and as you can see, I’m her friend.


김여주
Yeah… nice to meet you


김민규
"Hey, what elective did you take? We're all in the same class, so let's go together, too!"


김여주
Uh... I'm fine

I said I wanted to walk quietly!!

I had a feeling that hanging out with them wouldn't work out.


윤정한
What's okay? Then you go alone?


김민규
Or… you don’t like us…?


권순영
Why are you overinterpreting things like that? I'm so confused.


김민규
Sorry… but can you tell me…?

Mingyu's eyes looked just like this 🥺 emoji, so I couldn't help but open my mouth


김여주
My subject A is Earth Science, my subject B is Life Science, and my subject C is Chemistry.


김민규
Wow, amazing... I guess this is our destiny, heroine!!

ha

I guess I'm in the same class as these guys.


윤정한
Hey, let's go together. There were three of us, so we didn't really go together.


권순영
I'm not forcing you. If you don't like it, just say no.

How can you say no when you guys do that?


김여주
No, let's go together. I think it'll be nice and not boring.


김민규
Yay! Yeoju, today's first period is crucial!! Let's go together.

The moment I was led by Kim Min-gyu's hand, I realized something.

Something is wrong with this

I somehow finished my 4th period class and was about to eat.

Why am I eating with these guys?


김민규
Why did you only put so little in, heroine?


윤정한
I guess the food doesn't suit your taste.

Haha, I didn't mean to do this

The cafeteria has a cafeteria atmosphere.

It was nice that I could just eat what I wanted like at a buffet.

I think I'll get sick from eating with these guys

Why do you keep looking at me…!


권순영
Hey… Kim Yeo-ju, I’m going to show you guys how much I love you. Stop looking at me and eat your food.


김민규
Sorry, heroine, did you catch it?


김여주
No, it's okay


윤정한
Oh my, Kim Min-gyu


김민규
Oh my? Did you just call me oh my?


윤정한
That's what I should do


권순영
Why are you guys so childish? Are you really elementary school kids?


김여주
Phew

I laughed without realizing it

What should I do, these guys are so funny?


김민규
Huh? The female protagonist laughed.


윤정한
That's because you're so stupid


김민규
Hey, I'm not stupid


권순영
Tell me to eat something

I guess I'll have to give up on staying quiet.

I probably

I think I want to hang out with them


껄렁
Hello, I am writer Kkeulreong!


껄렁
I'm so happy to meet you through our first work, A-TEEN!


껄렁
I think there might be some people who don't understand today's content, so I'll give a brief explanation!


껄렁
First, elective subjects are chosen from a variety of social studies subjects (ethics and thought, comparative culture, etc.) and science subjects (earth science, life science, etc.).


껄렁
Judging from the fact that Yeoju, Soonyoung, Mingyu, and Jeonghan chose science subjects, it seems like they are in the science department!


껄렁
And A, B, and C are three choices divided into several halves!


껄렁
In simple terms, Earth Science Classes A, B, and C


껄렁
And it is divided into life science classes A, B, and C.


껄렁
I tried to explain it in an easy way, but was it difficult?


껄렁
If there's anything you don't understand, please leave a comment and I'll explain it!!


껄렁
The reason why the female protagonist wants to be alone is…


껄렁
Is it because of a painful story from the past?


껄렁
Or was it just because he was a voluntary asshole??


껄렁
My story has gotten long, so see you in the next episode!!


껄렁
Hello!
