Episode 12.

Because you are...

the teacher I want to become.

You are...

the teacher, no matter how hard I tried,

that I never got to become.

Because you are that exact teacher.

Please let me go.

Why are you telling me to do what you can't do, Teacher Kang?

You said you fell and couldn't get up.

Why are you telling me to get up and run?

You are telling anyone to run...

because your mind will be at ease. That's not right.

Hey, did you see Teacher Jung's expression?

Just look at Oh Jung Ho's timing.

He has no awareness of the atmosphere.

That's right. I was very shocked.

Now why am I feeling sympathy for Teacher Jung?

Hey Oh Jung Ho!

This is all your fault.

Even after all this, do you seriously want to sit there?

What?

Hey, Oh Jung Ho!

Hey, Oh Jung Ho.

What?

Did you finish your notes?

What?

You don't have it?

Are you kidding me now?

There really was something like that.

Oh, that was scary.

I was shocked.

Aish, seriously!

Where are you going at class time?

Go back to the classroom.

Jung Ho,

this is also the last time I am telling you to go back to your classroom.

Now you attend classes quietly on your own.

Now you attend classes quietly on your own.

Even if you cause problems and create chaos,

now there's no one to cover them up for you.

In any case, it is good that you came to school this morning.

You can leave.

Victory High School.

Aren't you coming?

Weekly Menu.

Today's side dish for lunch is pork cutlets.

Teacher Jung In Jae still hasn't called yet?

Hmmm...

Of course, she hasn't.

After getting dissed by the kids like that and coming in right away the next day,

won't that be strange as well?

She didn't pick up the phone yesterday.

Did Teacher Jung really get fired? Of course.

Did you all sleep well?

From today onward, I am going to start academic counseling for the Grade Evaluations scores.

Listen to this.

Only people who want to do this can do this. You guys select the order and come one by one.

Teacher, what about Teacher Jung?

What about Teacher Jung?

Song Ha Kyung and Lee Kang Joo, see me for a second.

Why are neither of you participating in the school essay contest?

You aren't going to participate?

Yes.

Really?

Okay.

Aren't you curious, Teacher?

Why Kang Joo isn't participating in the essay contest?

She said she isn't participating because she has a reason.

Must I know that?

That's not the case.

Even then, if it were Teacher Jung, I thought she would ask.

Because I am not Teacher Jung,

get rid of that kind of expectation at once.

What are you going to do?

I will think about it.

Does a kid like you who needs honors or awards have time to think about things like this?

Decide by today.

I am tardy.

Ji Hoon: Aren't you coming to school?

Yeong Woo: When are you coming, Teacher Jung In Jae?

Nice, I forgot the password. Who do I have to ask about this?

I have used up all the Early Dismissal Certificate papers.

Who do I ask for it?

Do I have to leave the career counseling information at the registrar?

How many more lines do I have to write?

After you finish writing the document, do you have to stamp the back page? Or not?

Go Nam Soon: Teach...

Language Arts 2nd, Math 4th, Foreign Language 3rd.

Teacher, I really prefer school-based studies.

So I'm planning on applying to college through transcript screening.

Nam Kyung Min.

Are you aware that this academic evaluation is merely a comparison within this school?

In the next evaluation in June, everyone including retries will be compared, meaning you

should be aware that it'll take a miracle to keep yourself at 2nd level.

Plus, you said transcript screening?

They pick those who have good transcripts among those who have high scores on the SAT.

Which means they won't pick you.

MOVE!

What did he say?

Was Kang Se Chan always an asshole?

He was always like that... But he's so kind to those who have good grades.

Hey, do you know what he said to me?

He asked me about getting employed with a special high school diploma.

Ah, he's ruthlessness... do you think that his personality will change?

Ah, I really don't want to get counseling...

When Jung teacher called me, I didn't not want to go this badly.

Just don't go. After all, he said only those who want to come should come.

How can I not go? I want to go to college too...

No, but seriously, am I that stupid to not be able to go to college?

Answer me. Am I really that stupid?

Yeah!

Oh, really?

Come on. Hurry!

Teacher Jung, do you think this is a bit hard for Class 2?

Have you not been able to contact Teacher Jung yet?

I mean, well...

Please tell her to come in tomorrow and settle everything for good.

Subtitles brought to you by The Classmates Team @ viki.com

I mean, you're fine...

I mean, you're fine...

so why did you ignore my text messages?

Can we go somewhere near here and talk a bit?

You should at least give me a reply, so that I can choose whether to do my work or not.

Look at this. I've been working overtime today too.

That stuff... you can find out through other teachers...

Are you really... not going to come to school anymore?

Teacher Uhm said to tell you this:

Your leave... No, your resignation...

He asked for you to offically write it.

He said if you officially leave, only then can the school find a replacement.

I'll go in and finish everything tomorrow.

It's not to ease my own mind, that I'm holding onto you...

You see, as we move forward together...

What I mean is... please don't ignore my texts.

I mean, you respond to the kids very well, but

why are you... scarcely sending any to me?

Resignation Request

Ji Hoon, every day at after school study sessions, answers around 3 questions.

Kang Joo is still very hurt because of the essay contest issue.

For Jung Ho, I think he will adjust more quickly if you compliment him often on his return to school.

Kyung Min needs a guide in order to raise her rank for English.

As for Min Ki, when it comes to going out to the essay contest, he...

Hyung-nim. No one forced me to do this, but I did this for you on my own (lit: this is my heart).

Oh Jung Ho. Follow me.

Hwaiting. Go do well.

President.

Did you collect the surveys concerning the satisfaction of the classroom?

Huh?

Collect them quickly and bring them to me.

Yes...

I don't have to say much right?

Since there are many offenses on your record,

let's start with your two week absence.

What happened to the class satisfaction survey?

I asked you to submit it by this morning.

Ahh... that is...

We need to report this right away because we're being delayed because of Classroom 2.

Make sure you get it and submit it right away.

Yes.

Teacher Jung!

Uhh...

About handing in the class satisfaction survey...

Resignation Request

Were you always such a careless teacher?

Is Class 2 the only kids you have?

What are you going to do about the other classes Teacher Kang has?

Whether you leave eventually or not,

I cannot accept this until then.

Then can I later...?

Oh!

Teacher.

Huh?

Can't you hand it to me right?

I'm busy, so I can't attend the class.

I don't need to tell anything specific. Just do whatever.

Yes.

Teacher Jung came to school.

So don't worry and go back.

In this school, which teacher do you think the kids hate the most?

It's me.

If every teacher left because their kids didn't like them, how many teachers would be left in Korea?

Hey! Hey! Hey!

It is big.

Move out of the way. It's huge!

Why?

Teacher Jung has come back.

What?

And they said she's going to teach Literature.

What? For real?

Yes.

How was Teacher's expression?

Like this?

Or like this?

Hey Byun Ki Duk, if you were Teacher Jung, will you be like this in this situation?

Does this make sense?

How can we face her?

There is no attendance today.

Huh? What?

What?

What about today's tardy students?

Oh Ga Eun is tardy.

How can you do this?

I won't be late again. Let me off the hook for this once.

What is this?

We've been here since 6 AM!

Write her name down! She should get punished!

In the future, in Teacher Kang Se Chan's class,

follow

Teacher Kang's rule.

Oh Ga Eun's rule!

I hate it. I hate it. I hate it.

Did I get caught?

Did I get demerits?

Teacher Kang didn't show up.

Then Teacher Jung?

I thought something was missing... I didn't get a text from her.

"Na Ri, where are you? There is one minute left til the class begins."

My phone was practically on fire.

It is a bit saddening because no one is waiting for us.

Aigoo... seriously. It must be annoying to take everything back out again.

I'm saying this as a warning, but

I won't let you borrow mine.

Ji Hoon, Kang Joo...

Jung Oh...

I mean, how were you going to leave school like this?

I'm going to leave, so that's why I organized that.

Aish, there is a lot.

You think of me, right?

Leave.

Hey!

You apologize first.

To Ji Hoon.

What?

Ji Hoon may be nice,

but this isn't something that'll just blow over eventually.

Shut up.

Hello.

We aren't fighting.

You're quite diligent.

I am doing it for today only.

Tomorrow, I'm not doing this.

Okay.

Everyday, let's just do "Only Today".

Let's do that.

This is your present.

Instead of a diploma,

getting something like a license...

How is this your business?

You said you would quit working.

I know huh?

But I'll mind about you 'til the end.

That's why just come back to work.

Even I attend school, so why wouldn't you?

I heard from Teacher Jung...

that you got angry because of the Essay Contest.

I'll make it fair.

So, don't just assume things.

Decide on your own.

I think Song Ha Kyung is still not participating.

I don't know what happened between you two, but

you know you'll both suffer if neither of you participate, right?

Did you call me out now because you are worried about me or

because you're worried Song Ha Kyung won't be able to gather enough honors or awards?

Usually, when a kid who doesn't do well and a kid who does well attends together,

the kid who doesn't do well might

seem like she's selfish. I know that.

But there's no reason to be this obvious.

Hey, since when did I...

Hey, that's really a victim mentality. It's an inferiority complex.

Yes, it is an inferiority complex.

So I won't participate in the contest.

Hey, Kim Min Ki.

See me for a second.

What's up?

You told me to see you.

Yes.

Can't you become Class President?

Why?

Kids don't listen to me, do they?

Kids don't listen to me, do they?

Will they listen to me?

Even then, you are better than me.

Because you study.

Forget the Class President thing. What do you want the kids to do?

Are you going to let go of Teacher Jung like this?

I also don't want that.

Uhh... for now, see the atmosphere of the class first and then bring it up.

I'll back you up.

Aigoo... I looked for you forever.

Why?

I want to discuss the issue about Teacher Jung with you first.

I am really upset to death.

So,

what are you going to do?

I'm trying to gather the kids' opinions later.

Kim Min Ki said he would stick with me so you side with me too.

Just because we object, would anything become any different?

I don't know.

Even then, if Teacher Jung knows what her students say,

won't Teacher Jung feel better?

Do you also think I am afraid of Song Ha Kyung?

Aigoo, does it make sense?

You are very strong.

You, who is strong, look after her.

Don't you pity the Song Ha Kyung who's desperate to go to S. University?

Aigoo... since when did you know Song Ha Kyung that well?

Go back in quickly.

I heard Lee Kang Joo is not participating in the contest because of Song Ha Kyung.

This sure is a friendship that brings tears to my eyes.

If only she went out, then Lee Kang Joo would get first place.

Hey, what friendship?

She said she's not going out because [Song Ha Kyung] is mean and selfish.

"Help push Song Ha Kyung forward." She said she's not going out because [Song Ha Kyung] is mean and selfish.

"Help push Song Ha Kyung forward."

Who said that?

Lee Kang Joo said it herself.

Should I go out to the essay contest and try to gather some specs myself?

How would you write your specs by yourself?

You need a manager, whether it's your mom or a study academy.

Let's talk.

Talk here.

Don't be like this and

let's go somewhere and...

I'm saying, don't talk behind my back later and say what you need to say here!

Who said I talked behind your back?

Look at someone if someone is talking.

Let go.

Oh no! Blood!

Don't touch it!

Teacher, hmm...

Uhh... he went to class...

Teacher, quickly!

What's wrong?

What's the matter?

Let me see.

You should have been more careful.

Are you okay?

If you're going to do it, then just do it quickly.

When you block something as soon as it explodes,

that's the quickest way.

Excuse me.

What should I say?

Do I have to teach you even that?

Kang Joo,

are you very hurt?

Subtitles brought to you by the Classmates Team @viki.com.

Bye.

Is it really okay for your mother not to come?

Teacher, my mom sells food at the market.

It's empty even if she leaves her spot briefly.

The doctor said it is okay, right?

How did this happen?

Of course, it was an accident.

Don't scold Ha Kyung a lot.

She will also be really shocked.

You guys were just fighting, but now you're siding with her.

No...I hate fighting...

But that girl keeps bothering me.

Her pride is so strong...

Just "sorry", "let's do well"..

they will be enough.

How can the word "I'm sorry" come out that easily?

I am sorry, Teacher.

I wanted to raise my hand to object you leaving, but

but that day, I was mad and...

I really regretted it.

But, when you're not in class, the classroom becomes so... ugh... not welcoming.

Anyways, that wasn't my sincere thought.

Okay.

Thank you.

Now you should know too, Kang Joo...

that Ha Kyung didn't do that on purpose.

Right?

[Yes.]

Yes.

We've arrived at the school just a while ago.

Ah, I see.

Aish, seriously.

Are you okay?

Yes.

Is your mother on her way here?

No.

I didn't tell her.

We have to finish this here.

That is what I want to say.

So we should call Kang Joo's mother and

talk about it to end this.

I can just tell her at home.

And I didn't really get hurt that much.

Student Lee Kang Joo, this was simply an accident right?

Something that just happened?

Yes.

It was just an accident.

That is what the child thought.

It will be difficult when Kang Joo's mother causes problems later on.

These days, kids fight and reconcile and then go home, but

then the next day, they report it to the police. That's the world we live in today!

That won't happen so please go back for today.

How can you be so sure of something like this?

If Kang Joo's mother talks about school violence

and causes problems, it will be difficult.

And even so, a hospital record has been created.

If Kang Joo's mother asks for a School Violence meeting, then don't you have to open one up for her?

That... now...

Look at that. We can't.

This involves our wages.

My mother isn't someone who will do that.

She won't do that.

Kang Joo...

Then, in order to prevent problems occuring later,

will you write something like a memorandum for me?

Mom!

That is a good idea.

Stating that she won't create a problem with an accident that happened inside the classroom,

I think that much will be okay.

You... you...

Come sit over here.

Your mother did it because she was worried.

I won't cause problems...

Lee Kang Joo!

Stop writing and go back to the classroom.

Even if she writes, if a problem arises, how helpful can it be?

Don't bother a kid who just got hurt and is in shock.

Please just go back for today.

Even then, it is better than not having it.

I won't cause problems. Lee Kang Joo.

You've suffered.

Thank you for your work.

Aigoo, it is nothing really.

Then I will leave. Yes.

It went well so don't worry, Student Song Ha Kyung.

It has already ended so go back to your class quickly.

What is?

What got solved and what ended?

Let's talk at home.

I don't know how much Kang Joo is hurt now.

I can't even apologize and

I can't even say it is okay to Kang Joo. What has ended?

If we end it like this,

when are we going to reconcile and

get close again?

Both of you, go and lay down on a bed.

Both of you, sleep just for one hour from now on.

Hurry up and sleep. When you're in shock, it's best to sleep it off.

Hurry up and sleep!

Ah, I reallly...

I didn't know they would cause a problem like this.

I was going to call Song Ha Kyung right away and talk to her about it too...

Really.

It will be good if you can talk to Ha Kyung later.

Because you're her homeroom teacher.

Hey, Lee Kang Joo!

I'm okay.

What about you?

I...

I'm not okay.

I'm sorry.

Don't be like that.

I don't like it when Song Ha Kyung's will deflates.

I'm sorry for not congratulating you when you got chosen for the school essay contest, and

for being mean to you.

Also for hurting you...

Song Ha Kyung!

Just act as you normally do. This is making me cringe.

What? Just act as you normally do. This is making me cringe.

What?

It is cold.

It's cramped.

It is nice.

Tell me honestly.

Do you like me or college?

Of course, I like you more.

And I am not going to S. University because I like it.

I am going because I have to.

Me too.

I also like you more than going to college.

Hey!

That's obvious too.

Eat.

Hey, look at that.

They're eating together?!

I know, but it's nothing.

If it's like this,

does our master change?

Ah!

This is seriously so uncomfortable.

Me too.

Hey.

Go over there.

I don't want to.

It's because it's awkward, you punk.

Hold it in, because I'm doing the same thing.

I thought you said we're in the process of making up.

Then try and hold it in for at least something like this.

Eat.

Eat this.

I have that too.

If I have to regularly attend school, then I figured I have to get in line behind you two.

Line?

He got in line.

Then you are next in line...

Hey.

Why do you guys have no appetite?

I just kissed up to you guys.

Eat.

Isn't this salty to you?

Subtitltes brought to you by the Classmates Team @viki.com.

Samurai! No, Samurai Song!

If you do this again, Elder Kang...

Hey! You're going to die.

Don't say anything else!

What's this? You already made up?

Song Ha Kyung and Lee Kang Joo, you two are now inseparably, marked by blood.

You little idiot.

Why?

I'm bleeding, too.

Make up with me.

Guys,

let's talk before lunch time ends.

Well,

is it okay like this? About Teacher Jung?

This...

I was wondering if anyone changed their minds about this.

I didn't change my mind.

I still think of Teacher Jung as our homeroom teacher.

Aish...

since Teacher Jung isn't here,

I feel like my mom has left to go hang out.

But still, even when my mom went out,

she used to make this much soup before she left.

Teacher Jung didn't even do that and just...

Ahh seriously...

Then, let's gather the opinions here and

let's tell Teacher Kang.

I'm all for Teacher Jung's return back.

You?!

For what reason?

Hey Kim Min Ki, the person in our class who drove her away...

was your mom.

Your mom called my mom so that Teacher Kang could be the only teacher.

She wanted that.

Ahh... you didn't know?

Your mom is the best at getting things approved.

She just went face to face with the principal.

No wonder. I thought it was too sudden.

It's over.

Yeah.

Are you going to tell on us to your mom?

Run!

Kim Min Ki.

I'm sorry.

I really... didn't know.

Why would you?

At times like this,

I really wish I didn't have a mom.

What about when you eat the food your mom made?

Well, not then.

What do I do? I can't be of any help.

I should be the one who's sorry, for causing this situation to happen.

No, that's not it.

It's my mom.

About the essay contest question.

Aren't you being too oblivious about it?

Truthfully, this is not the teacher's responsibilty, but the educational department.

What should I help you with?

I... seriously... you're making me upset.

If I had asked earlier, then I wouldn't have had to suffer all by myself.

This...

is the applicant list. At least help me with this.

Let's see...

This is the question for the essay contest.

Good job.

It's tomorrow right?

Yes.

It will be held after the dismissal of class.

Min Ki, how are you feeling?

Talk to me.

Drink once more.

Here.

Good.

You finished preparing for the essay contest right?

No, I didn't.

Then, take it out and look at it now. And on the way in the taxi.

You can write it well. My Min Ki is so smart.

Take it out immediately.

This question.

And especially, this question.

I think this is the most important question.

It's not what you think. You probably received hints about it.

Who the heck tells you all this stuff anyways?

Let's go, you'll be late.

Teacher Jung... the reason why I was able to focus and do well in school

was because of Teacher Jung.

I know.

That teacher likes to say things the kids like to hear.

But don't be deceived, it won't help your future at all.

Like Teacher Kang methods, it would be best for you.

What's my future like?

You'll find out later. If you follow your Mom's direction...

after two years pass, you'll see how your life changed.

You think a regular college student and an S. University student are the same?

Now, you did a good job today too.

After the dismissal of class, there will be an essay contest.

Participants shouldn't be late and come right after dinner.

What about after school study session?

There is none.

YEAH! WHOO!

Oh Jung Ho.

To continue with your punishment,

you'll do classroom cleaning.

And, Go Nam Soon and Park Heung Soo.

Before you go, finish your homework.

What homework?

Hyungnim, what do you have to hand in?

Should I do it for you instead? Hey, Go President, what do you have to do?

Teacher! Teacher!

What are you doing here? Teach!

I just stopped by while I was passing by.

Nam Soon!

Can you call Min Ki for me?

Yes.

Teacher, what lipstick do you use? Its really pretty.

Teacher, my cheeks got fatter right? This thing doesn't work at all.

Teacher, when are you coming back? I'm so annoyed by Teacher Kang!

She's right.

Kim Min Ki isn't here.

Oh, okay. I'll see him later then.

Oh, okay. I'll see him later then.

I'm leaving.

Teacher! Where are you going?

She left.

Are you going to keep avoiding Teacher Jung?

I can't face her because I feel so sorry.

What about you?

That one is mine.

For real?

Yes.

Park Heung Soo, you can go.

You, stay behind.

I...

Can't I do it at home? I've been pushing my part-time-job time...

You want to go home? Go where?

You need to clean the library.

Before the start of the essay contest. Both of you.

Okay, you can go.

Hey! You're not going?

What? Are you going to help?

Are you crazy?!

Yes.

At school.

I said I'm not doing that stuff anymore!

If I make one more mistake, I'll get cut from school!

I didn't get cut yet.

Alright, then I just have to pay you back.

I'll pay you back immediately.

Oh... my bad.

Why that little!

Kyung Min, what's up?

I...

Can I enter now?

Can I enter now?

The Essay Contest.

She can, right?

You can, but why do you want to do it?

Instead of preparing for this, it's better if you learn one more problem for English.

You said my grade isn't rising.

That's why, for the specs...

If you wanted to succeed based on specs, from the first year,

you should have continuously prepared them.

If it's work experience, then work experience. If it's official document, then official documents.

Just like that. In that order.

How could that be?

Everyone else is like that.

How can we know anything in the first year to decide what we should do?

Teacher, from Class 1, what you wanted to do for the rest of your life,

were you completely sure about it?

How many people are there that know?

Last year, I had no idea about anything related to college,

so how can I decide my future from Class 1?

That's why this doesn't make sense and is hard.

Kyung Min!

What?

Don't be too hurt.

Grades are things that you could definitely raise and...

I know it too. That my grades aren't that great. I know.

But, it's too much. I really wish Teacher Kang didn't act like that.

Teacher Kang is trying to make you strong by giving you challenges...

What other challenges do I need?

When I sit in class, it's a complete competition.

They never fall asleep.

What other challenges could I possibly need?

Forget it.

It's weird. Whenever I get angry in front of you,

I can release some of my feelings.

Then, that's a relief.

From now on, come to me and release any...

I heard a rumor that you were leaving school.

Come to the essay contest.

I'll admit you in instead.

Eat dinner quickly okay?

Okay.

Go now.

Excuse me...

About telling the kids that they can't raise their grades...

Tell them sweetly?

Does that produce any results?

Kids think that grades are an analysis of their entire lives.

From just a couple of grades,

they even think about if they have a right to belong in society with everyone else.

Then I guess they'll even have worries about what they'll do later in life.

They need that sort of weight or pressure to try hard in school.

Studying is also a skill like music or art.

More than half of it is being born with it.

Is it easy to do well if they don't have skills?

They need to develop their skills to reach the top, but

how can they get there without any pressure?

Are you... perhaps doing this on purpose?

For me to see?

Me?

Why?

I'm just doing what I always do.

Hurry up and eat. You need to be strong to be able to write well.

Eat that,

and this is

Let's look over this before we go inside.

I know, Mom.

If I just follow Mom, then my future will be smooth.

I know that you're trying to give me that satisfying future.

But mom,

it's not what I want.

The life you're trying to give me... it's not a life I want!

Then what in the world is your mom supposed to do?

I'm trying to pave the road for you so you can move on comfortably, but you're complaining?

You think I don't suffer too? It's hard for me too!

What am I supposed to do?

I've experienced how hard and difficult this life is.

How can I just send you like this?

Even if my own body shatters, I have to send you with a tightly built body.

You just have to accept what I give you.

Is that so hard?

Because you just give me the answers!

The answers you give me...

they don't seem like mine.

But Mom, is that the right thing?

Are the answers you give me... are they all right?

You'll know that in 10 years.

After you go to college, then law school, and finish your exams,

you'll say "My Mom was right," and the day you can smile will come.

Do you want another cup of water?

Until then, are you going to be like this?

Min Ki.

Are you okay?

Ah, this.

Heung Soo, try this on.

Aunt, I really don't need this.

Just put it on, who knows?
