"The wind raised me
for 23 years."
SELF-PORTRAIT BY SEO JUNGJU
So, what does that mean now?
"The wind raised me"?
What?
"The wind raised me"?
Does that make sense?
All right, then who's here
because the wind paid
for your academy tuition?
Show of hands. Anyone?
That's right, it's impossible.
Who raises kids then?
- Parents.
- That's right!
Parents raise kids.
They pay for things
and support you, right?
So why does this author say
the wind raised him?
What could that mean?
That's 150,000 won for her time.
The bruises, the busted lip,
and emotional distress and all that,
it'll take about two weeks to recover.
How should we calculate
the hair that was cut off?
Now, look.
The support of parents.
How much of her hair was cut?
I'd say two finger-widths?
We request two million won
in extra compensation.
Two million won?
That's how much her hair's worth?
He has 23,000 won in cash in his wallet.
He's 1,977,000 won short.
- f*ck me.
- That's all I have.
Look.
The love from your family.
The warmth of parents.
All of these things
are completely lacking.
Please search him.

That's right. That's right.
Okay.
Option B has been chosen.
I'll leave it to you, Mr. Lee.
What does that mean?
It means he'll kick your a*s.
Just enough to make up the difference.

COUNSELING OFFICE
Do you think there'd be anyone so stupid
in this day and age
to forge their parent's signature
on a report card with top grades?
Um, I have no idea.
You punk.
- You're such a peculiar kid.
- Stop.
Hey.
Wanna join my club?
What club?
Problems of society club.
BEST CLUB IN KYEWANG HIGH
SOCIAL ISSUES RESEARCH CLUB
HEY! JOIN THE CLUB!
Doesn't it look super fun?
What do you do there?
We study old-soul kids like you.
You're gonna join, huh?
It sounds really boring.
Listen to this kid talk.
You could be a subject.
- I can't.
- Why not?
I'm not interested in problems of society.
Ugh. How could
an 18-year-old be so uninterested?
Then tell me what you are interested in.
Hey.
Are you an amphibian
or something?
Why are you always sweaty?
Here's the research you asked for
Bring it here.
Where did you get this?
Around.
Can I go now?
I see
they're all from another country.
Did you translate it?
You must be busy.
- I got to go.
- Hey!
Stop right there, will you?
You'll come by later
to revise the questionnaire, right?
That's not fair.
Why did I have to do that, too?
If not you, then who?
You're the only member.
Why did you join then?
I just joined to beef up my resume
for schools.
I thought it was a fake club.
Wow! Another lazy punk kid.
The smart ones are the worst, I tell you.
- Hey, Baeggyul.
- Hm?
You can't do this alone?
What?
Here.
Your assistant.
What?
Come here after school, do you hear me?
Uh
Okay.
Mm-hm.
The more I think about it,
the more it pisses off.
- Minju.
- Yes?
Here, take a look at this.
Isn't it so cute?
What is it?
This. Isn't it pretty?
This cost 320,000 won?
- Someone stole this?
- You're both insane.
The b*stard who receives
such an expensive gift,
and the high school b*tch
who spends that much money on a guy.
Hey, don't be so mean.
So? When is your 100-day anniversary?
Next week.
- Huh?
- Hmm?
- Oh, my god!
- What is it?
Hang on. Someone just bought one.
They only have one case left now.
What am I going to do?
What do I do?
- You're early today.
- What do I tell Kitae?
Your hair.
I've had a f*cking stressful day at work.
Aren't you guys hot?
You said you'd rather die
than cut your hair. I can't believe it.
Is it f*cking ugly?
It's f*cking pretty.
- I love you.
- Ditto.
Jiye.
I have a number
we need to add to the blacklist.
What's the number?
I shared it in the chat room.
ANOTHER DIRTBAG.
f*ck that as*h*le.
Why did he have to cut my bangs?
That son of a b*tch.
f*ck, he cut your hair?
I don't know.
It must be a fetish or some sh*t.
What the hell? Is he a psycho?
What was Mr. Lee doing?
That clueless old man
by the time he got there,
the guy had already cut my bangs off.
Whatever.
I feel like bullshit
so let's call it a day.
Hm?
- Let's go out. It's on me!
- Really?
- Yeah! What's that?
- Where did you get this?
Did you get settlement money?
Hell, yeah, I got a shitload.
Take some.
Hey, it was so f*cking cool.
I chose B, and told Mr. Lee
"Beat the sh*t out of that little creep."
He was getting stomped.
Then started running around,
kept begging me to save him.
That was a better bonus than the money.
f*cking awesome.
Uncle's really useful.
- I give him credit.
- Me too.
Ever wonder, what does Uncle look like?
How old is he?
Who knows?
- Probably a fat neck beard.
- Gross. They're the worst.
Hey. What's wrong with her?
She's just tired and hungry.
We all are. Feed us!
Okeydokey. Let's go!
- Yes!
- What are you gonna wear?
- Should I wear this?
- Yes!
- What are you gonna wear?
- Cut it off!
- Let me change first!
- and shoulder bag.
Oh, gosh.
Come on!
SOCIAL ISSUES RESEARCH CLUB
Okay, next question.
Question 14.
"What should the school do
regarding h*m* public displays
of affection on campus?"
How is this even related?
It's totally related.
Why would the school do anything
about students' sexuality and behavior?
Being g*y isn't a crime.
Yeah, that's woke.
- Let's pull that one off the list.
- Stop it!
You can't use slang.
You sound so old when you use it.
Hey, I'm not that old.
- Next.
- Okay, fine.
Hey, hey, hey.
Jisoo, come on.
That's not how you season those.
Seriously, what are you doing?
I'm only feeding you fast food
until you learn how
to season fries properly.
Question 18.
"I've witnessed or heard
about sex workers in my area."
What about it?
It's similar to the previous one.
It's none of the school's business.
What do you mean? This is definitely
something the school should care about.
The legal rights of sex workers
is a controversial issue.
People argue it's a legitimate work,
they provide a service.
Some disagree. saying it's unethical,
stuff like that, I mean, come on
isn't this going too far
by ignoring the discussion?
You're the one
taking it too far.
An argument is one thing
but the law is the law.
And according to our
current laws, sex work is a crime.
Plus, this is about minors.
If it's a legal matter,
the cops should handle it, not the school.
Sure, that's if a school only teaches
the bare minimum.
That's how it is now, isn't it?
Whoa, look at you. Right to my face.
Jisoo,
don't you have any input on this?
What?
What are your thoughts and ideas?
I'm very curious.
I think the person would be ostracized.
If someone says
they saw a student selling themselves
and their name got around school
their life would be over.
So you're saying
it's not about right or wrong,
but about being considerate
of the person involved?
Jisoo, why are you so thoughtful
all of a sudden?
Actually, what Jisoo said
is exactly what I want from you guys.
We need. to make sure
this questionnaire
treats students like the human beings
they are.
If not, fix it.
Rewrite it completely if you have to.
We'll pick a day this weekend
and work on it.
- What do you say?
- What?
You have time this weekend?
Me?
Leave the house and do other stuff.
Something anything at least
on the weekends.

What's wrong?
You were just kidding me, right?
Did I just say something I shouldn't have?
It's okay. Just don't tell anyone.
And your dad?
- Are they both gone?
- Mm-hm.
- Do you live alone?
- Mm-hm.

We were in the same class around then.
And no one knows you live alone?
Mm-hm.
- Even Mr. Cho?
- Mm-hm.
Will it be weird
if people found out?
Wow.
That's insane.
How are you living?
What?
It takes money to stay alive.
How do you pay rent?
How did you pay
for your uniform and stuff?
Well
I work part-time. Yeah.
What's your job?
Just this and that.
"This and that"?
- Are you a male escort or something?
- What?
I'm just f*cking with you.
With that face? No way.
Actually
With a little work
Mm
You might not be so bad.
Hm.
Anyway, you are so f*cking badass.
Badass?
It must've been hell
living all by yourself
without your parents.
Should you even be telling me
all of this?
Hey, what's wrong?
Uh, are you really crying right now?
Are you depressed or something?
It's just that no one's ever
talked to me like that.
Uh
Take a seat.
Make yourself comfortable.
- Babe.
- Yeah?
How old are you?
How old do I look?
Hmm I don't know.
What do you think?
