Pi Han Wul.

We must make him attend the committee.

That means we'll get summoned too.

And you could get expelled.

I'm okay with that.

Then we're okay too.

Yes.

Guys.

One year ago, a teacher who tried to get Han Wul summoned...

was murdered the night before the committee meeting.

What?

The police said it was a random killing,

but the staff and students believed...

Han Wul did it.

What? Just to avoid being summoned?

That's impossible.

Not even Han Wul would kill someone.

It was to avoid getting expelled.

To Han Wul, this isn't just a school.

It's a kingdom he created.

The thought he could get kicked out?

Not only would that damage his ego,

it would hurt the Yeonbaek Gang's...

succession plan.

No one would fear him if that happened.

He'd even put his life on the line.

Han Wul won't stop at anything to get...

the committee meeting called off.

Why worry?

We can take him down first.

- That's right. - No.

- Why not? - What if we fail?

Why is the first thought in your head that we might fail?

Ms. Lee's safety is at stake too.

We must be extra cautious.

- But still... - Se Hyun's right.

We can't do anything to hurt Ms. Lee.

What should we do, then?

Until the meeting happens,

we must protect Ms. Lee.

The investigation into the kids' violent activities.

Did you make any progress?

The Yeonbaek Gang seems to have sworn everyone to secrecy.

It's hard to find witnesses.

Ms. Lee.

How about you stay away from the school for a while?

We're not sure what Pi Han Wul might do.

I'll protect you as best I can,

but there's a limit to what I can do.

Are you telling me to run away?

Come back after the committee session.

If a teacher were to run away in fear,

what would that teach the kids?

They went to the extent of spreading fake news.

We don't know what their next trick might be.

I must protect the kids through the committee.

(D-1 to Pi Han Wul's Student Council Committee Session)

(Vice Principal)

Hello, Ms. Lee. It's me.

Why are you calling me this late?

Are you sure you don't want to call off the committee session?

I'll pretend you never said that. Goodbye.

No, wait.

If you're adamant...

Then I must tell you something.

About the corruption committed...

by Yusung Technical High and the Yeonbaek Foundation.

Why are you...

telling me this tonight?

The way things are going,

it looks like the committee session will actually happen tomorrow.

(Yusung Technical High School)

Ms. Lee. Are you sure you want to go inside?

Will it be okay?

The vice principal wants to come clean.

I should hear him out.

The committee session's tomorrow.

If they happen to have...

an ulterior motive...

Even if they do,

this is an opportunity.

As you know,

this school isn't normal.

It's a well-known secret that the school...

launders Yeonbaek Foundation money to be used...

as Chairman Pi Yeon Baek's political funds.

Han Wul's father practically is the school,

so no one dared to go after him.

And so...

the school harboured a monster.

Are you well-prepared for the session tomorrow?

Yes. Don't worry.

We have the victims' statements...

as well as testimonies from some teachers.

You are...

really admirable, Ms. Lee.

I am very moved.

Sir.

Thank you for showing courage.

Sir.

Sir?

Where did he go?

(Bang Sang In, 2nd year)

(Chu Jae Hwang, 2nd year)

Surprise.

This is serious déjà vu.

I think we met in similar circumstances before.

What did you say then?

"If you want to steal someone's time,"

"you need to ask instead of threatening."

Gosh, for real.

I was deeply moved back then.

And so,

I'll be respectful.

Ms. Lee Han Kyeong.

Give it when I'm still being nice.

Being nice, my foot.

Just give it to us, you witch.

You're a handful.

Give it to me.

Come on.

Give it to me.

Goodness.

Voice recording?

Confiscated.

Here.

You four.

Are you really going to harm me?

Why do you ask?

Did you think last year's incident with the teacher was a rumour?

Even if I vanish and the meeting gets cancelled,

your wrongdoings won't disappear.

So I beg you. Just stop here, Pi Han Wul.

I'll give you one last chance.

It seems you've got the wrong idea.

All the chances until now...

were from me.

Ms. Lee Han Kyeong.

The police...

will soon come.

The voice recorder works, right?

Yes.

But...

must you go this far?

I want to become the evidence itself.

Thirty minutes.

If I don't hear from you after that, I'll make my way in.

Do you mean Detective Na Tae Man?

Hello?

Microphone check. 1, 2.

Can you hear me, you scumbags?

You're all dead meat,

you son of a gun!

Pi Han Wul's student council committee session...

will be held in 4 days at 10am.

In 4 days at 10am.

We have to protect Ms. Han Kyeong until then, right?

- Yes. - If it's 3 days, it's 72 hours.

- It's 72 hours. - Full-time protection is easy.

You guys.

Take great caution.

If a teacher were to run away in fear,

what would that teach the kids?

Not right away, but...

All good, right?

Ms. Lee. I don't know this question either.

Oh, that one?

This one confuses me, too.

It's probably going to take some time.

- Is it this one? - Let's read first.

Are you sure you want to go inside?

The committee session's tomorrow.

If they happen to have an ulterior motive...

Even if they do,

this is an opportunity.

Guys.

How did you find me here?

Darn it.

You must be the impudent first years.

Make way, will you?

Ms. Lee needs a good night's sleep today.

There's an important event today.

It's the student council committee.

Gosh.

Did you babies rush over to save Ms. Lee?

How scary.

That little...

You took the wrong side. Sun Chul.

That's a load of bull.

Come at me, you...

Leave with Ms. Han Kyeong, Jun.

What? Why must I go?

I trust you the most.

You're serious, right?

Someone's happy.

Darn it.

You little...

Darn it!

Go, Ms. Lee.

- Come on, Ms. Lee. - Hurry.

- Guys... - Hurry.

You got here fast.

- Go ahead, Jun. - What?

Se Hyun?

Let's go, Ms. Lee.

But...

Lee Jun!

(Apprentice School, Yusung Technical High School)

You...

It's been a while, Jun.

ANTI?

I joined the Yeonbaek Gang.

So don't call me anymore.

Ms. Lee. Go.

- Jun... - I'll get nagged at by the kids...

if I don't get you out of here.

Hurry up and leave.

Go.

Ms. Lee Han Kyeong.

Chase after her right away, and I could've ended her.

But honestly, I wanted to fight you.

Why are you here?

You see, Han Wul said there was a vacant Yusung Technical High...

scouting position.

Was joining a gang...

becoming Pi Han Wul's gofer?

"Pi Han Wul?"

It hurts.

How dare you, a pathetic loser who got beaten up and cried,

say his name?

Thanks to Han Wul,

we have a revenge match.

Get out of the way.

What is the motive for the murder?

Please say a word!

Make way!

Why did you murder him?

(New Life)

You ruined my dad.

I'll take your arm in exchange.

Darn it.

What happened to your bravado just now, you loser?

Good grief, this one is a hassle.

Hide well, or I spot a strand of your hair

Bingo.

This is fun.

It's been a while since I had such a thrill from a fight.

Why are you going this far?

We were tortured.

We were bullied.

We were pushed to go down the wrong path.

Darn it.

We couldn't study when we wanted to.

This isn't what school is for.

I should be asking you that.

- What? - Had you listened to me...

and cancelled the committee session,

Lee Han Kyeong or your friends wouldn't have been hurt.

Shut your mouth.

(Yusung Technical High School)

What...

Oh, no.

Are you glaring at me?

What do you think that can achieve?

Should I carve them out?

ANTI!

You should dye your hair red,

so you'll look tough and no one can come after you.

Didn't you watch "Slam Dunk?"

What has ruined you like this?

I thought you and I would be friends once I got stronger.

Don't be ridiculous.

Darn it.

You fool.

It's easy to take you down 1-on-1.

Bang. I'm done here.

Darn it.

Who said it'd be 1-on-1?

Darn it. That tiny rat.

It's 2-on-2. So it's the 2 of you against the 2 of us.

School bullies versus the study group.

Let's see whose teamwork is better.

Gosh. Darn it.

You're out of luck now.

And you're out of ammo.

Darn it.

Starting now,

I'm going to teach you a lesson.

Darn it. You stupid jerk.

Jae Hwang!

Get it together, Lee Ji Woo.

Focus on the basics!

Why do you keep moving back and forth?

Just focus on the basics.

What did you say?

Look at those who got a perfect score on the SAT.

They said they only focused on the textbooks.

Stop being greedy,

and stick to the basics.

You...

You want to learn martial arts?

I want to help Ga Min.

I will do anything.

Violence should never be allowed.

But...

to protect what is precious,

sometimes you need to fight.

So what did you learn from Ga Min's mother?

I never hit anyone before,

and I was afraid of getting hit.

She said there were only three things I could do.

What's the first one?

Endurance.

To be exact,

guts to keep my eyes open even when I'm getting hit.

Gosh!

Hey. How durable.

I guess Yusung Technical High School trained you well?

Right?

What's second?

Remember the vital points.

(Vital points)

Shoot.

Lastly,

the hand technique.

In the end, all it takes is a firm fist.

Shoot.

A loser like him...

Then you should start studying too.

That's not all you got, is it?

You were not...

thinking about buying time...

for Lee Han Kyeong to escape?

What?

Did you take me that lightly?

I'm disappointed.

What have you done to Ms. Lee?

There she is.

Come here.

Come on.

So?

Do you plan to show everything you have now?

(A banned skill from Uncle number 4)

(The 0-inch punch, Bungyeong)

I will step on you real good.

So losers like you would never even dream of it.

I told you there was no point of making an effort.

You think Yusung will change just because I'm gone?

Even if I'm gone,

Yusung won't change.

Never.

(A banned skill from Uncle number 10, Jinbeon)

Everything changes.

I... No.

We will show you.

Ms. Lee.

- Come here. - She's alone.

- What can you do alone? - Get over here.

Go easy on her.

Ms. Lee.

- What the? - Do you want to fight?

What's she doing? Are you scared?

Ms. Lee!

What?

Who was that?

What are you doing?

- Come here. - Shoot.

What?

You need to pay back what you owe Ms. Lee.

(Student council)

Why do you care?

See? Even a pinch hurts, and Ms. Lee...

She got stabbed for you.

I can never owe anyone anything.

I can't believe I'm doing this because of that idiot.

Why am I in front?

Grow up, you jerks.

Ready?

Bring it on,

you jerks!

(Yusung Technical High School)

I will announce the student council committee session's result.

With the approval of a majority of the attending members,

Pi Han Wul, the second year student,

will be expelled from the school.

If Pi Han Wul is dissatisfied with the result,

he may request a retrial to the Disciplinary Adjustment Committee...

of the Provincial Office of Education...

You clearly had good teachers and good friends.

It was your choice...

to make such a mess without appreciating them.

Reflect on yourself and take responsibility for that.

Then you will have another opportunity...

to change your life.

(Yusung Technical High School)

Pi Han Wul, we'd like you to come with us.

What's going on?

Are you really going to hurt me?

Why?

Did you think what happened with that teacher was just a rumour?

It won't be easy for you to get away with this.

What are the police doing at school?

(Yusung Technical High School)

- This is crazy. - What is going on?

- This is unbelievable. - Why are they taking him?

You go ahead and change the school.

Okay. Fine. Let me go on my own.

Hang on.

Let me just have a quick smoke.

Smoking is prohibited within the school compound.

Mr. Former Vice Principal.

- Look at her. - This is insane.

- Enjoy your time at school. - Take care.

People change every day.

- Hey! - You can't catch me, can you?

- I got you! - No, you didn't.

But even so,

they say a leopard can't change its spots.

(I create opportunities even in Purgatory.)

The recent brawl at a high school in Ancheon,

which became a hot topic on social media,

has been revealed to be fabricated.

The students who fought with the security guards...

were not school bullies trying to steal property...

That's probably because people tend to change for the worse...

more often than for the better.

Yes.

Attorney Hwang is here for Han Wul's case.

Tell him that I leave it to his discretion.

That's why...

we struggle even more.

Gosh, that's freaking awesome.

Totally.

That's so lame.

What did you write, Hee Won?

Developer.

It suits you.

That sounds perfect.

- What about you, Ji Woo? - What?

It must be a teacher for Ji Woo, as always.

What if she beats up the students?

You...

I'm not crazy to beat up the students.

What about you?

Me?

I haven't decided yet.

Ga Min. What about you?

- What? - What's your dream?

My dream...

It's to get into college.

What?

Well...

People don't usually dream of becoming a college student.

Is that so?

But...

is there an answer to it?

- Sorry? - It...

might be difficult right now.

But something you can achieve if you try until the end.

Isn't that a dream?

That's why studying hard...

and going to college is my current dream.

(Yusung's 1st Study Group)

Nice.

Now then, study group members.

The time has come.

The schedule for the final exams is out.

- No way. - No.

- No. - Seriously?

Darn it.

When will it stop?

I will beat Lee Jun this time.

- No, you can't. - I will.

- No, you can't. - I will.

- No, you can't. - I'll poke your eyes.

- No, you can't. - Shut it.

- No, you can't. - I will.

This is Yusung Technical High School in Ancheon.

Our story...

of getting into college continues.
