(All characters, organizations, places, entities, and events...)

(in this drama are fictional.)

(Administration Office 1)

What about "The SKY Class"?

- That's too tacky. - Really?

Excuse me.

What are they doing?

The advanced class.

They're naming the advanced class.

We can't call it "Daechi Leaders" either.

Why not? Leaders?

Doesn't it sound good?

There was an official notice...

that we must remove school and organization names...

from the student records.

Look.

The Office of Education issued an official notice.

The Office of Education is wasting time and effort again.

They must be afraid the colleges will rank high schools.

It's all useless.

Smarties. How about "Smarties Club"?

"Smarties Club".

That's good, right?

- That won't work either. - Why not?

It's too blatant.

They're telling us to get rid of advanced classes as is.

Give us an idea then.

There's always a way.

(Icarus Club Receiving Members)

What is this?

(If more than 20 apply, those with the highest grades will be accepted)

They're saying only the top students should apply, aren't they?

Isn't it obvious?

They're saying they'll manage the student record.

We need to get in here...

if we want to go to a top school.

If it's based on grades...

you should be able to get in, Jae Hyun.

(Do Yeon Woo, Bae Myung Soo)

Did you get your evaluations too?

Thank you.

Senior Class Group used their brains.

- What do you mean? - Take a look.

The Office of Education banned advanced classes,

so they called it a club.

It's just the packaging.

Those frauds.

Anyway, what does that club do?

A special club that the school will specially monitor.

Special after-school classes,

special counseling sessions with College Advisory Group...

special counseling sessions with the College Advisory Group...

Senior Class Group, College Advisory Group,

and Creative Experience Group?

Creative Experience Group? Why are they included?

I guess...

because they review student records as it pertains to clubs.

The head of Creative Experience Group put her two cents in.

She wants to use this excuse to butt in,

saying they're reviewing the student records.

Ms. Park Sung Soon...

is going to be furious again.

Don't even think about it.

What do you say, Ms. Ko?

Let's work together and do something great!

Are we going to keep this team as is?

(Black Dog)

(Episode 6)

I did that last time because the situation was dire.

You understand, right?

Yes.

I know why you're so against the advanced class.

I do.

However,

we need to save the top students.

I feel bad saying this, but...

College Advisory Group didn't do so well in college admissions.

For that reason,

we need to cooperate as well so it looks good on the surface.

You understand, right?

Last year's results...

Never mind.

Yes?

- Have some tea. - Thank you.

- It has a nice scent. - Doesn't it?

(Student Record)

- Hot. - Be careful.

So? Is that all the Admissions Office said...

when you brought the student records to them?

They didn't tell you why the student who got in was accepted?

No. The admissions officer was kind of scary.

But we worked very hard.

Ms. Park even brought brochures...

Are you that worried about the College Advisory Group?

Pardon?

That's not...

True.

Our college advisors are charming.

It's just that...

they have strong personalities.

What?

I agree.

We have to soothe the top students...

and their parents,

but College Advisory Group, whom we trusted, got nothing,

so everyone is just taking it out on you.

Don't take it to heart.

Why are they taking it out on us?

Never mind.

That's why I'm looking through these with you.

- So, don't be too angry. - Okay.

Anyway, did you agree to take on the advanced class club?

That's...

Icarus?

I think they turned it into a club because advanced classes are banned.

Still, you'll be working with the top students,

but it's pretty much an advanced class.

The students and their parents are pretty tough.

Advanced class.

College Advisory and Senior Class are problems too.

There will be a constant power struggle.

Creative Experience Group is a problem too.

Creative Experience Group?

- Creative Experience Group... - They're the ones...

who examine student records as it pertains to clubs.

- Check them... - If you take on that club,

they'll intrude a lot regarding the student records.

It's odd.

It's very odd.

What is?

About Ms. Ko Ha Neul.

- Yes? - I saw her in the hallway earlier.

Ms. Ko?

Hello.

So? Did you decide whether or not to take on the advanced class club?

- Yes. - You did?

You can tell me.

Well... I'll tell everyone together at the meeting tomorrow.

- What? Why... - Ms. Ko!

Hi.

- Can you help me with this? - Let me ask her first.

What? But why?

Who knows?

Darn it.

Let's be honest. College Advisory has nothing to lose.

You all know what happened with Hankuk University.

And you don't have a plan for the student-record-based strategies.

No, it's not that we don't have a plan.

We'll come up with a plan soon.

Then you should've gotten something from the Admissions Office.

What can we do? In order to send our top students to good schools,

we need an advanced class.

Exactly.

Is it called Icarus?

If one of them gets into Hankuk University's medical school,

College Advisory will get all the credit.

That's right.

If you're worried about the kids...

Sure. At the beginning, people will say we're making other kids...

feel uncomfortable and excluded. But let's be honest here.

- Other schools do it too. - Exactly. Good point.

So, think about this and nothing else.

The results and your bonus.

You like money, don't you?

Gosh, I can't stand this.

Sorry?

I said, I can't stand you guys.

Oh, by the way,

is the new teacher taking on the advanced club?

No one's saying anything, but all eyes are on it right now.

Why?

What do you think? Everyone's curious, obviously.

The Senior Class Group and College Advisory are in a power struggle.

Who's the innocent bystander that will get hurt in that war?

And how will we make sure those rude top students get good grades?

Goodness.

I guess everyone has so much time on their hands.

Don't you remember? A while ago...

You fool...

The advanced class is going to be created anyway.

What's the problem? It is because of the kids?

Or the College Advisory Group?

Both.

Both of them are very important to me.

(Senior Class Group)

(Jin Yoo Ra)

(Icarus, Jin Yoo Ra)

(Report Card)

Darn it. If only I did better on the Korean exam...

(Senior Class Group)

Hello.

(Senior Class Group)

Ms. Ko.

I totally screwed up the Korean exam in March.

I won't be able to join the club, right?

(Korean, Level 3)

It's still possible.

Really? Then I'm relieved.

To tell you the truth, my goal is to get into a medical school.

A medical school? Why?

Well, it's a secret,

but my family is struggling financially.

That's why I have to earn a lot of money and become successful.

If you get a job at one of those big companies,

you'll get laid off at the age of 40 and open a fried chicken store.

And these days, many positions are short-term contract jobs.

I really want a permanent-job life.

That's true.

Many positions are contract jobs, indeed.

So that means I should aim to get a specialized job,

but I can't afford to go to law school,

which means a medical school is my only option.

Gosh. Ms. Ko.

Is life supposed to be this tough?

It'll only get tougher after you graduate.

But you'll do well, Yoo Ra.

Because you're smart.

Ms. Ko, you remember my name?

Of course. You're in my class.

Oh, Ms. Ko.

I got this from my part-time job. Would you like this?

You work part-time?

Gosh, that must be hard.

Thank you.

This looks delicious.

(College Advisory Group)

We're having a meeting tomorrow morning about the advanced class,

and all teachers are required to attend it,

especially the college advisors for the seniors.

What can we do? In order to send our top students to good schools,

we need an advanced class.

(Letter of Recommendation)

(Please tell us about the applicant.)

(Our exams cater to students who studied the materials in advance.)

In this area, learning the materials in advance is still the norm.

(Akang Academy)

At first, parents think that they shouldn't do it.

But they all give in and end up doing it...

because they worry about their kids falling behind the competition.

2x minus 3dx.

Excuse me. We'd like to settle up.

Hey, the customer wants to settle up.

Sorry? Oh, okay.

Hello.

Your total comes to 15 dollars.

Oh, we don't give separate discounts.

Thank you.

Wait, it's actually 15.30 dollars. I'm sorry.

So annoying.

Yoo Ra, you can get going if you're done.

- Okay. - Good work today.

Take some of the leftover bread.

Thank you.

- My gosh. - Wait up.

Oh, boy.

Hurry.

Hey, isn't that your dad's car?

That car is very expensive.

- It is. - I'm off, guys.

Hey, give me a ride home!

- Let's go. - Hey.

Bye.

Why didn't you tell me?

I heard they're creating a club dedicated to advanced students.

You'll have to join the club, right?

To get into a medical school outside of Seoul, at least.

Jae Hyun, answer me.

Yes.

I heard the upcoming midterms will cover the parts for CSAT as well.

What did I tell you?

Learning all the materials in advance is clearly so helpful.

If they couldn't learn the materials in advance...

because their families couldn't afford to send them to prep schools,

and if they didn't get good grades on the exams because of that,

we should pay special attention to those students, shouldn't we?

That is why I wrote these letters of recommendation.

I've wondered if I really have to do this,

but this just makes me feel better.

(Please tell us about the applicant.)

(Student Record)

(Jin Yoo Ra)

Why? Did the college say the school is the problem, not the students?

Well...

It's something we all know.

Yes, it is a bit awkward...

for a teacher to criticize fellow teachers.

Gosh, how should I put this?

(Administration Office 1)

Well, what's all this?

We have a morning meeting between all teachers.

Why all of a sudden?

You know, the advanced club.

I see.

So, about that...

Who's going to be in charge?

Who knows?

We'll leave for the meeting in 10 minutes.

- Yes. - Okay.

If we had gotten anything from that admissions officer,

(Bae Myung Soo)

we would've been able to have a shot...

at talking them out of the advanced class, right?

It's water under the bridge.

It's just so frustrating. That's all.

Have you heard anything from Hankuk University since then?

I have.

What is it?

Since Professor Jang felt bad about not attending the meeting,

he looked into the records of the student who got in.

Apparently, that student barely made the cut-off.

The admissions officers had different opinions,

so they even had to cross-check it.

But he said the interview went well...

and the letter of recommendation was great.

Ms. Yoon wrote it, didn't she?

- Yes. - No wonder.

Well, I have something talk to you.

- Right now? - Yes.

We have to go to the meeting.

Why don't we talk afterward?

No, I have to tell you now.

Please.

Go ahead then.

It's about Hankuk University...

that we visited last time.

Why do you bring it up again?

Ms. Ko.

The reason our students' applications got turned down...

isn't because of each student's capability.

I think it lies in our school system.

Why don't we talk about this after...

I heard it myself.

From that admissions officer at Hankuk University

So?

At times like this, I should close my eyes...

and take the plunge.

According to the records of the College Advisory Group,

this student didn't have any better record than other applicants...

who got into Hankuk University.

On top of that, on the mid-term of the first semester,

his math grade suddenly dropped to level three,

which gave him some disadvantages.

Look, Ms. Ko. In a highly competitive environment like this,

it's nothing unusual that their grades suddenly dropped.

I know. But after I read Ms. Yoon's recommendation,

I realized there was another reason why his math grade...

suddenly got dropped in his senior year.

What was that another reason then?

I guess this student...

didn't get a chance to study advanced math.

If I knew his grades would turn out like this,

I would've sent him to preparatory schools.

(Economics: Level 1, Chinese: Level 1)

He said he could study on his own.

(Level 3)

My husband and I had no clue.

(Math)

That's why Ms. Yoon wrote about his situation...

on her recommendations.

(Letter of Recommendation)

(Precautions)

I have been watching closely the applicant, Oh Min Ho,

for three years.

This applicant and his parents...

have been insisting on the self-directed learning method.

"Therefore, they didn't follow the trend in Daechi-dong,"

"which heavily relies on private education."

"And he didn't attend any preparatory schools."

Keep going.

"While catching up with the math curriculum,"

"which covers a wide range of topics all at once,"

- "he must have struggled badly." - He must have struggled badly.

Because our school has an exam structure...

that is favorable to students who study in advance.

Even though...

his math grade dropped in rank in the first semester,

I am sure it is a temporary setback.

And I can guarantee that he will manage to overcome this situation...

based on what he has taught himself through self-directed learning.

I think our school-wide math exam is unfavorable to students...

who don't go to preparatory schools...

or who don't have a chance to study the subject in advance.

Ms. Yoon probably wrote it...

because this kind of circumstance...

wasn't mentioned anywhere.

What you mean is...

the problem is our school's system, right?

That's right.

(Reading, Jin Yoo Ra)

That's true. It wasn't mentioned anywhere else.

Of course, it wasn't.

What kind of teacher would write this on the school records?

It's no different than whistle-blowing.

Besides, according to her words,

all the students who got good grades...

must've attended preparatory schools, right?

Ms. Ko.

Yes.

Why did you bring this up at this timing?

Because somebody has to say it.

Before we try out everything including the advanced class,

we should know what's more important.

So, somebody has to say it.

That way,

Jae Hyun and Jin Yoo Ra...

can get into great colleges.

(Student Records, Koo Jae Hyun)

(Student Records, Jin Yoo Ra)

Especially, Yoo Ra has...

a difficult family background.

I'm not sure whether I will take charge of the advanced class or not.

However, I wanted to get this off my chest first...

before I make up my mind.

Conscientious Confession.

Someone among us has to tell this inconvenient truth...

in front of everyone.

- Thank you, Ms. Ko. - Pardon?

I know you brought this up because you cared about us.

You're awesome, my fellow alumna of Osul Elementary School.

You can go first. I should go see the principal.

Ms. Park.

You'll never get anything good out of this.

It's okay. You know, I'm the center of the school.

We have to be able to say...

what the fundamental issue is.

That way, we can make a change.

However, telling the inconvenient truth...

is always difficult.

(Student Records)

(Letter of Recommendation, Yoon Yeo Hwa)

Did you have to bring this up right now?

I'm sorry.

I know what you mean,

but it will offend the other teachers.

You know how many recommendations and student records...

one teacher has to handle, right?

Absolutely.

When teachers are swamped with work,

they could overlook students' personal situation.

We can't blame them for that.

- It's not what I mean. - Then what is it?

Because I think somebody has to say it.

Hello, Vice Principal. About our morning meeting...

Let's put it off until late afternoon.

And please tell all the teachers to join.

Okay.

That's the meaning, right?

But when "may" combines with "not",

or if you have "may not be",

it means...

this may not necessarily be true. Right?

- Yes. - Let's look at an example.

Yoo Ra's family isn't very well off.

So, whereas my feelings may be true,

other people's feelings may not be true.

That's how you can interpret it.

Let's look at the second sentence.

Thus, the meeting for the advanced class...

ended up becoming this big.

Gosh.

- What is this all about. - What are we doing here?

Gosh

The reason we're all here today...

is to discuss the advanced class club...

that the Senior Class Group and College Advisory Group...

are working to create for the seniors.

Then...

you should talk to the people in those groups.

Why did you call all of us here?

That's my question, Principal Byun.

- Me too. - Us too.

Let's make it quick.

Those rude punks. They should know their place.

I'm sure you read the proposal...

circulated by the Senior Class Group.

Before we discuss this in detail,

the College Advisory Group would like to say something.

Ms. Park Sung Soon, please come up.

What do you think she's up to this time?

Why do they always pull this garbage whenever we do something?

Hello, I'm Park Sung Soon, the head advisor.

I'm here today to say something...

about student-record-based applications...

- to all the teachers gathered here. - What's going on?

Why is she so polite today?

Excuse me, Ms. Han Jae Hee?

- Yes? - Hush.

You're being too noisy. I can't hear.

We brought the student records...

of a student who was accepted via student-record-based applications...

and two current students.

- And... - And...

you struck out.

Yes. We totally struck out.

However,

we were able to find out very clearly...

what our problem was.

What? Are you confessing something?

Gosh.

The reason...

so many of our students were rejected by Hankuk University...

was not because the kids were lacking.

It was not because they didn't study hard.

The problem was...

the school's system...

and all of us.

- What is she saying? - What was that?

How dare she?

Is she criticizing us?

What's her problem?

She has some nerve.

I can't believe this.

Who is she to judge us?

How dare she say that?

You didn't go to the meeting?

Why should I go there?

Must I watch College Advisory attack us?

He's right. Ms. Park openly says uncomfortable things.

I hate things like that.

She claims it's for the kids, but doesn't consider her colleagues.

We all feel the same, don't we?

Of course, I do. Have a nice day.

We? You only consider teachers as "we".

You abuse administrators like we're servants.

- Don't you agree? - Pardon?

Yes.

Let them fight it out among themselves.

Do you have proof?

Proof that there's a problem...

with the school's system and us.

Yes.

What is that?

- Why is she doing this? - What's her problem?

Please take one and pass it down.

Pass it down.

Pass it over.

(Daechi High School Students' College Admissions Data)

What is this?

Tell us slowly.

This is a double tap to make sure we're dead.

What are you people doing?

We're all teachers. We're colleagues.

We should help and take care of each other.

But you're bent on attacking other teachers.

Of all the...

I'm not criticizing the teachers...

who work hard preparing student records and recommendations.

I know how hard it is for you too.

Then how could you do this?

I'm saying...

before creating an advanced class club and handing out benefits,

let's look at the source of the problem together.

In other words, what?

Whether it's the advanced class or not,

after they do something, let's look at each student individually,

and write down that process in their student record.

Oh, all the...

- This is nonsense. - That's just too much.

Before preparing the student record or recommendation,

let's think about whether there's something going on...

with the students and ask them.

What is she talking about?

Is she saying we never asked?

Are you kidding me?

Even when you prepare test questions,

think about whether the kids who don't take preparatory classes...

and come from struggling families can solve them too.

- What is she saying? - What? So, we don't care?

Why should we do all that?

That's so much extra work.

They're all our kids!

What's wrong with her?

Seriously.

Gosh.

[VIU Ver] tvN E06 'Black Dog'
"Ms. Ko, the Whistle-Blower"
-♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

That's all.

Gosh.

It's nothing.

Okay, then. We will now start our meeting...

about the advanced class club.

We'll take care of the voting first.

First, the standard.

The top 20 students get priority.

Let's vote by a show of hands.

Please raise them high.

Okay. We have a majority, so that passed.

Second. Monthly counseling with a college advisor.

We have a majority again, so that passed too.

Priority in getting popular after-school classes.

We have a majority again, so that passed too.

Okay. Finally. Dedicated seats during their self-study classes.

That's obviously a majority again, so that passed too.

Okay, that is all.

All of the proposals regarding the Icarus club...

has been passed.

How about a round of applause.

Finally, we will choose the teacher...

who will be in charge of the Icarus club.

Let's get moving.

Speed it up.

Why is this taking so long?

We're almost done, so please bear with me.

Please let me finish.

Ms. Ko Ha Neul?

What?

- Her? - Really?

Yes.

I had nominated Ms. Ko Ha Neul.

So? Will you take on our Icarus?

- Who is she? - I don't know.

What's this?

So, Senior Class Group wants to back her, right?

I think so.

Of all the...

Really?

Yes.

What?

Really?

But I have a favor to ask.

Incredible.

I could never say that.

As I am the teacher in charge of Icarus,

please make sure there is no outside pressure...

when it comes to me creating the program and running the club.

I'd like help...

from the Senior Class Group and the College Advisory Group.

The students and their parents are pretty tough.

College Advisory and Senior Class are problems too.

There will be a constant power struggle.

Furthermore, as I am the teacher in charge,

please leave it to me and trust me to prepare the student records...

according to my conscience...

without outside interference.

I'd like your help as well, Creative Experience Group.

They're the ones...

who examine student records as it pertains to clubs.

If you take on that club,

they'll intrude a lot regarding the student records.

Yes. Truth be told, that's how it should be done.

I'm speechless.

So that's why you said you'd say it in front of everyone.

If you'd help me with this,

I'll do everything I can...

to make the club successful.

She's got guts.

She's really something.

Ms. Ko Ha Neul.

Good luck.

If you do this well,

it'll answer your question.

What must I do? What must I do...

to become a permanent teacher?

(College Advisory Group)

Ms. Park.

(Bae Myung Soo)

"They're our kids."

What was that?

You were so powerful.

Not anyone can be the center of the school.

Ms. Ko. You were great today.

You make your senior alum proud. You're so upright.

Thank you.

It's okay. We only said what we needed to.

Right, Yeon Woo?

Yes.

Let's grant Ms. Ko a wish since she did something good.

What? Say the word.

I'm fine.

I do.

Yes, I do have a wish

Yes? Go ahead.

I want...

to eat with you.

Eat?

Yummy.

This is your wish?

Having pork rinds together?

I eat anything.

She's a big eater. How did I not know this?

Come to think of it, we never ate with you.

Sorry.

- Should I scoop this for you? - No, no.

Thank you.

I can't eat pork rinds. I can't eat anything like you.

Eat up.

Would you like a drink?

Okay.

Here. Good work.

- Good work. - Good work.

It's raining.

They say you live long if you are cursed at a lot, so we'll live long.

Then we should live about 5,000 years.

So? Do you regret what you did today?

No.

(Ji Hae Won, College Advisory Group, Bonus 3,500 dollars)

"Daechi High School, Principal Byun Sung Joo."

Let's do this.

Okay.

(Congratulations, you have been accepted)

I had nominated Ms. Ko Ha Neul.

So? Will you take on Icarus?

Die! All of you!

Hey! What did you just say?

Just go.

Go.

Do you want to go on a blind date?

She's pretty. Her dream guy is a teacher.

I'm not a real teacher.

Whatever. You don't want to come? Want a picture?

It's up.

(Icarus, Accepted Applicants)

Yes, I'm in.

(Koo Jae Hyun, Ahn Ji Ho, Jin Yoo Ra)

Hey, you got in too.

Ms. Ko Ha Neul is in charge.

Our homeroom teacher?

What's this? I didn't get in. I'm speechless.

I didn't get into Mr. Do Yeon Woo's after-school class either.

I'm ruined.

If you get into Icarus, you get priority...

for Mr. Yeon Woo's after-school class.

Don't you think this is unfair?

Hey. Let's go to the school administration office.

Let's go.

- Hello. - Hello.

Would you like one?

Sure. Thank you.

This is your wish? Having pork rinds together?

I eat anything.

- Would you like a drink? - Okay.

It's raining.

They say you live long if you are cursed at a lot, so we'll live long.

Mr. Do Yeon Woo, may I have a minute?

Yes?

The additional students for your after-school class...

They say to accept Icarus students first.

What do you mean,

accept Icarus students first for my after-school class?

It's exactly as I said.

They want Icarus students to have first priority to join.

Who said that?

The principal, who else?

Did you get home okay?

What could we do but follow orders?

We can't defy him.

What's going on?

You know how we took requests online for after-school classes?

Yes.

Mr. Do Yeon Woo's class filled up first.

Within one minute.

Nice.

It's the one you're doing together that starts this week, right?

Yes? Yes.

But a lot of kids couldn't get into the class.

So, he's considering expanding the class.

But Principal Byun said...

to take Icarus kids first.

What?

What am I supposed to say if the kids complain?

What choice do we have?

That was what they decided for the advanced class.

Right?

Sorry?

We took your side last time.

Remember? Back when...

she almost lost her after-school class,

you said you'd do it with her, so we got it through for you.

We gave you one, so you should give us one.

Give and take. You know that.

- There. - Darn it.

They're storming in to demand we adjust the after-school classes.

What's the big deal about student records and college?

It's just an after-school class,

but they look so scary.

Hey. It's Mr. Yeon Woo.

- Mr. Do. - What is this?

Why are you letting in Icarus kids first?

Why was only the senior mock exam considered...

when forming the advanced class?

- Well... - Mr. Do.

I barely missed the cut.

I missed it by 0.5 points.

I'm about to lose everything because of 0.5 points.

Don't cry.

Lose everything? Why are you suddenly crying?

Guys. Why don't you talk to me?

I'm in charge of Icarus, so...

Get out of here!

- Ms. Park. - Ms. Park.

Get out of here.

The Senior Class Group decided that, so ask them. Go on.

- But... - Seriously...

Go on. Go.

This is not fair!

Do you think they'll listen to us?

Can you do that to Senior Class Group?

Who decided that? They did.

Why should we take the fall?

Don't you agree, Ms. Ko?

Pardon? Yes.

There's no need for us...

to take the fall in front of the kids for other teachers.

No one will appreciate it.

The midterm exam questions are due next week.

As always, please make sure...

there are no errors in the questions and work with other teachers...

and check the questions.

Please refer to the attached regarding the exam.

That's for the physics department to hear, isn't it?

No. It's for everyone.

When I think about what we went through...

because of the physics department's mistake last time...

Seriously.

There had better not be any mistakes this time.

I don't care which subject it is. I'm going to...

Darn it.

(The midterm exam questions are due next week)

Finally, the war has begun.

Hello, Ko Ha Neul speaking.

It's me. I'm calling about the midterm questions.

Can you come to my desk?

Okay. I'll be right there.

Mr. Do.

About adding more students to the after-school class...

I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry?

Well...

It's because of Icarus...

This isn't something you should apologize for.

You seem to think you should take responsibility for everything.

Don't. At a school, you'll only hurt yourself.

(We Promise! You'll Get into College!)

- Ms. Kim. - Hey.

Let's go.

You saw the message about mid-terms, right?

Yes. You mean about the exam questions, right?

But why did we come in here?

Do you know which teachers will prepare the questions?

No.

We're in charge of Korean for the senior class.

Korean is split into two parts.

You and I teach the first part.

We split up the classes since we're course partners.

Yes.

Then there must be partners for the other part.

- Yes. - Who are they?

Ha Soo Hyun and Ji Hae Won from the Senior Class Group.

- Okay. - Mr. Ji Hae Won...

Yes. You know who that is, right? The six-year short-term teacher.

A graduate of this school.

I guess you two aren't very close.

We never really had a chance to talk.

Sure. Who cares if you're not close?

Anyway, that's not the problem here.

Ha Soo Hyun.

Sweetie. I went to...

the Senior Class Group office earlier.

Ms. Kim?

What is it? Why are you beckoning me over?

Did you submit the midterm questions for your part yet?

No. They aren't due yet.

I've already submitted mine.

I put them on a USB drive. Here.

(Writing Evaluation Test)

He wasn't kidding. He's so impatient.

But the text questions were outrageous.

In what way?

Look at this.

(Icarus After-school Class Instructor: Ha Soo Hyun)

Is Mr. Ha...

teaching a class that only Icarus kids are in?

Yes. He's working so hard on it.

He already prepared his own textbook...

and gave them out this morning.

I'm close to the Icarus kids...

that you're in charge of.

They said they're attending Ha Soo Hyun's after-school class...

starting today,

so I asked to see the textbook.

What is this?

That's the part that's totally outrageous.

This part is where the midterm questions are from.

What?

That's why it's outrageous.

It's not being taught to the whole school.

I worked all night to put this together.

He based questions...

on an after-school class only Icarus kids take...

rather than what was taught to the whole school.

Of course, he changed the content ever so slightly.

But I'm not stupid. I can see what he did.

What if we get caught?

(Test Questions)

That psycho Ha Soo Hyun...

will get us in trouble too.

Why is he doing this?

He could've based questions on what he taught everyone.

Why else?

It's all about this.

What?

Why else?

It's all about this.

What?

Do you know how much you get paid for doing after-school part time?

(Do Yeon Woo, Class Size 20, Wait List 34)

You don't get paid separately for teaching during school hours.

But you get paid per hour for after-school classes.

In other words,

he's doing business with exam questions.

What should we do?

Should we tell him to change the questions?

Who? Us?

- Definitely not. - Why not?

You and I are partners, right?

Then you and I would work together to agree on the questions, right?

What about them?

Mr. Ha Soo Hyun and Mr. Ji Hae Won would work together.

That's right. So that team...

must deal with their own problem.

But still.

The four of us submit the questions for Korean together.

That's right. But it's only in theory.

When you consider the mood at the school,

we can't touch their test questions.

There's no use in talking to them.

I bet they'll be angry at us and tell us...

to stay out of it...

Then...

should we tell Principal Byun?

You can't.

You always tell the principal and vice principal last.

Then what do we do?

Forget this.

- Let's stay out of it. - What?

What can we do?

Ji Hae Won will take the fall.

It's tragic, but it's his fault for getting a bad partner.

You won't die just because people curse at you.

Hello.

- Hello. - Hi.

Can you help us with this?

Hold on.

I went over this in class.

I dozed off.

Good for you. You fool.

Pay attention. I'll explain it to you.

To solve this...

- I guess you're busy. - Mr. Lee.

What brings you here?

These are the evaluations of the open classes.

I see.

About Ji Hae Won...

His evaluations improve by the day.

Do they?

He was a hard worker ever since he was a student.

I guess because he has been here for so long, he's quick...

and loves the school.

Take a close look during the upcoming test...

for a permanent teacher.

- Yes, sir. - I'll let you work.

Yes, sir.

- Mr. Ji. - Yes, sir.

It's not easy to work at the school, is it?

It's manageable.

Tell me...

if things are hard. Tell me directly.

If you look at this here...

It's just us, right?

(Administration Office 1)

(Ms. Ko Ha Neul)

What can we do? Ji Hae Won will take the fall.

It's tragic, but it's his fault for getting a bad partner.

You don't seem to understand what this question is asking.

But if you look...

Look who's here. Ms. Ko.

Hello.

What brings you to the Senior Class Group?

What do you mean?

She's in the Senior Class Group too.

That's right.

You were unlucky. That's why you sit with College Advisory Group.

Still, we always think about you. We never once forgot you.

Remember that.

Okay.

Okay, then.

Excuse me, Mr. Ha.

Yes?

I'd like to talk to you.

Me? Go ahead.

Not here.

It's about the midterm questions.

Okay.

What is it?

You gave your midterm questions...

to Ms. Kim Yi Boon already.

You did? Really?

That was super quick.

Yes. Well... Let's talk outside.

Okay.

So?

Is there a problem with my test questions?

The thing is...

I think it'd be great if you could make...

some adjustments to the questions.

May I ask why?

From what I see,

you made the test questions easier for Icarus members.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Despite all that...

Well, let's say I did.

Isn't it a good thing for you if it's favorable to Icarus members?

Pardon?

I mean, think about it.

Look, when the advanced class' students get great grades,

eventually, either you...

or College Advisory Group will take the credit.

Look, Mr. Ha.

Nevertheless, I should be the one who leads them...

Ms. Ko.

Well, you have to go.

There's an emergency in our group.

Pardon? What...

Myung Soo got hurt.

Sorry?

So, hurry up.

- I'm sorry. - Okay.

Where does he get hurt? What happened?

Well, That's... Head, probably?

My gosh.

- Come on! - Goal!

(Reporting Hiring Corruption at Daechi High School)

(The post has been removed or does not exist)

You're trying to beat me to the punch?

Yes, that was a lie.

Why?

If you confront everyone like that, it'll only make the problem bigger.

I mean,

what gives you the right to meddle with their own test questions?

Their own...

The questions are made by all four of us, so obviously...

That's not the reality.

Their test questions are none of your business.

It's Mr. Ji and Mr. Ha...

If I just look the other way, not only students...

but also Ms. Ji will get in trouble.

Still, do you want me to hold my tongue?

Yes.

Mr. Do.

Please stay out of it this time.

If you don't want to get criticized again.

Was school always like this?

Did you think it'd be the same as when you were a student?

Please think rationally, Ms. Ko.

I'm thinking very rationally and realistically right now.

Don't you feel ashamed in front of kids?

Apart from all that, test questions should be unbiased at least.

Like I told you, this is what Mr. Ji should deal with.

If I don't say anything,

Mr. Ji will take the bullet in the end.

Why would I take the bullet?

What is that you're talking about?

(Black Dog)

Except for qualifications,

there's another key attribute private schools highly value.

What is that?

Whether they could adapt themselves well to our school system or not.

You have a lot of experiences and good reputation.

I don't get why you only see your fellow teachers as competitors.

You know, the person spreading the ridiculous rumor.

That person is also being impatient.

How dare you spread such gossip behind my back?

Both life and opportunities are on a first-come-first-served basis.

What matters isn't about who came first.

What matter is one's ability, doesn't it?
