THE SMILE ANGEL
COOL GOJIN
Oh, my. I'm so anxious.
Anyway, where is this boy?
Son, here! Over here!
-Gosh, what took you so long?
-Ow.
At least he came. He's better than my son.
There really are a lot of people, though!
Gosh, do you think
the fan signing will get canceled?
Last time, it got canceled too
because there were too many people.
That's what I'm saying.
And I wanted to get him
these wild pine mushrooms.
Oh, my! Seriously!
-What?
-What is he doing?
Hey, you!
Why isn't he getting out of line?
There's a line!
-We're all standing in line!
-You're going to be in trouble!
-Hey.
-What the heck?
Excuse me!
-What's with him?
-Don't you see the people in line?
Is he trying to cut the line?
Hey, why are you trying to cut the line?
We've been standing here
since early morning!
Why is he cutting?
-Oh, come on!
-Who is that guy?
Hey! Why are you trying to cut the line?
Get in line! The line!
-Yes! Get in line!
-Get back!
Didn't you all…
come to see me?
YOU'RE MINE
-What is he talking about?
-He should be in line…
It's Noh Gojin!
-What?
-That's him?
Is it really Noh Gojin?
That's right!
I am Noh Gojin!
I LOVE YOU

Mind the gap
between the train and the platform
as you get on and off the train.

-Okay.
-Here you go.

NOH GOJIN
TOP INSTRUCTOR IN THE UNIVERSE
Guys, what are you looking at?
Eyes only on me.
I'm the best instructor in Korea.
Who's the best social studies instructor?
Gong Heechul! Ahem!
Hello, everyone!
Do English like me and it's easy!
Even easier than a piece of cake!
I, Michelle Lee,
will spoon-feed it to you.
Everyone, just open your mouth.
MICHELLE LEE

KANG MIN
Life is a gamble.
I'll take care of your English--
Achoo!
Hey.
Go away, you fakes.
The real deal of Korean is here.
Is grammar frustrating?
I, Kim Chabae, am the real deal.
Just follow me.
There are only two ways
you can choose to deal with math.
The first one is to give up.
The other…
is to take my course.
The choice is yours.
But the result…
may be fatal.
What are you staring blankly at?
You seem to have
a lot of time on your hands.
KANG MIN
Darn it.
Five minutes.
The entrance.
The elevator.
The hallway.
The office.
Three.
Two.
One.
Hello, sir.
Fifty…
What would this be?
Pardon?
I… told them to take out the onions.
Do you know what kind of people
annoys me the most in the world?
People who don't do their job right
but still take their salary without fail.
They're parasites
who only grub money from me.
TYLENOM
Could you tell Mr. Noh…
Weren't you an intern?
Yes.
Right? Weren't you
an admin assistant for my team?
No wonder you looked familiar.
I always remember our team's interns.
I didn't know you worked here.
Mr. Noh's secretary?
-Yes.
-How long? A month?
-No.
-Three months?
I've been here longer.
Longer than three months?
You're pulling my leg.
No secretary of his has ever
lasted longer than three months.
Are you serious?
No way. Everyone quit in tears.
What a miracle. Ms. Lee…
Ms. Lee Sinyoung,
you're one miraculous secretary!
You're Guinness World Records worthy.
-My name isn't Lee Sinyoung--
-Please let Mr. Noh know that I'm here.
Sir, Mr. Kang Min is here to see you.
CELEBRITIES INVESTIGATED
FOR ILLEGAL GAMBLING OVERSEAS
Sir.
It was an innocent hobby. A hobby.
You went abroad…
for a mere hobby then?
I went abroad on a trip
and just went there for a little fun.
I went to the police station
and testified that it was only
an innocent hobby, nothing else.
I knew it.
I knew you'd understand me, sir.
The deputy CEO can be a bit uptight.
No matter how much I explained,
he kept saying frustrating things
like taking time off to repent.
He said I should go on a break
for a year, you know?
Gosh, that's frustrating indeed.
Right?
I even got
a very long apology letter ready.
I put my soul into writing it.
Come on in.
Is someone joining us?
Did you call me, sir?
Get me the envelope over there.
Envelope?
You may go now.
What is this, sir?
-Sign it.
-Sign it?
I see. Sign a letter of oath?
Of course I will.
I'll never gamble in my life again
or something like that, right?
"Contract termination agreement.
Based on the terms of the contract term--"
Sir, are you abandoning me now?
Sign it.
Sir… have you already forgotten?
I'm one of the founding members of Gotop.
I'm the top English instructor
who helped you build up Gotop this much!
I said, sign it.
Sir, why are you doing this to me?
Don't you know who I am? I'm Kang Min.
I'm Kang Min, the English instructor
who can even teach a dog
to speak English in one month!
Jeez, you really are dense.
Can't you figure it out
when I tell you to do something?
Do you think
I'm kicking you out because of gambling?
Gambling?
That isn't that big of a deal. Hey.
As long as you make money,
I wouldn't dismiss you
even if you committed murder.
-Then--
-Then why?
Because you're a useless piece of trash
who only gambles around.
The top instructor? When was that?
You're a thing of the past.
I don't value things
that don't make me money.
I ought to dispose of garbage
into a garbage can properly.
Holding onto it
will only cause it to reek.
Noh Gojin,
you scumbag.
I brought in so much money
for this company.
The money I made
allowed you to build this building.
But what?
I'm not the top instructor anymore?
I don't bring you enough money now,
so you treat me like garbage?
That's how the world works.
Once proven useless, you get eliminated
and disposed.
Got it?
Don't be an amateur.
You scumbag!
One more thing. I get that you're upset,
but let's get one thing straight.
I built this building
all on my own.
I'm the top of the top instructors
in Korea.
I, Noh Gojin, did it. Okay?
I'm going to kill you!
Noh Gojin, you scumbag!
Let go! I said, let go of me!
I'm going to kill you!
Die! Damn you.
Noh Gojin, you scumbag!
Let go of me!
Get this cleaned up.
Come on. Let go of me.
Please listen. You know who I am, right?
Look at me. I'm Kang Min.
That lunatic. I'm going to kill him!
Let go!
Noh Gojin, you scumbag!
I'm going to kill you.
Let go. Let go of me, you lunatics!
Let go of me!
Noh Gojin, you lunatic.
I'm going to kill you!
RECIPIENT: NOH GOJIN
As of today, Mr. Kang Min has been
dismissed from Gotop Education.
-Really?
-Are you serious?
I thought you deserve to know clearly
why he was dismissed.
He was let go,
not because of his gambling,
but his performance.
It was because of his performance.
Mr. Kim Chabae,
I heard you've been working all night.
Yes, sir. I've been working day and night
to serve you and the company
with all of my energy.
That's not something to be proud of.
You're practically advertising
that you're really dumb.
I should've just slept.
Ms. Michelle Lee, when will you break
the 10-billion-won mark in sales?
You know exactly how much I paid
to break your contract with Ilpum Edu.
That's 13 billion won.
PLUS PACKAGE SALES STATUS
Graphs are so great.
Anyone can understand them so easily.
This isn't some
buy-one-get-one-free snack deal.
When will you start pulling your weight?
Apparently, a social studies instructor,
whom no one has heard of,
is causing a sensation.
I came across
such a messed-up news article.
How dare they, when Mr. Gong Heechul here
is the best social studies instructor.
Jeez, don't you know
they are fishing for some traction?
Right?
Those new academies these days
always put my name in
to promote their own instructors.
You should be thanking me, sir.
It's free promotion for Gotop, you know?
I can promote the company
just fine on my own.
Besides, money doesn't lie.
If our sales were to drop even a tiny bit,
I'd really like to know
the name of that instructor.
Right.
The best instructor is
the one with the highest profits.
Your value today must go up
even by 100 won compared to yesterday,
if you want to survive
here at Gotop Education.
Also…
-Mr. Oh!
-Deputy CEO!
Mr. Oh, you're here.
RECIPIENT: NOH GOJIN
I put a package on your desk.
-Hello.
-Hello.
You know…
Are you going to have some tea?
If it's for me, I'm good, sir.
It's just us here. Drop the honorifics.
We're at work, sir.
Enough already.
I'll take care of Mr. Kang's dismissal,
so nothing backfires.
Okay.
In that case,
let's grab dinner tonight.
I'm sorry, sir.
I have an important appointment today.
I apologize.
You have plans today?
Yes.
Okay, then.
-You may go now.
-Okay. Thank you.
He has plans?
He forgot about my birthday?
Goddamn birthday.
Who cares about birthdays anyway?
The most childish thing in the world
is blowing out candles on birthdays
and making a huge scene out of it.
Ta-da!
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday, my dear brother Gojin
Happy birthday to you
Gojin, happy birthday.
What is this? How childish.
Gojin, I'm really sorry
that I can't have dinner with you today.
I know it's just you.
Birthdays are overrated.
Gosh, I don't even like cake.
Come on. Have some.
No peaches in it, right?
Who else but me would know
that you're allergic to peaches?
Of course not. Don't worry and eat.
Does it taste good?
Not bad.
Gojin, can you give Mr. Kang
another chance?
I thought you would take care of it.
That was the deputy CEO
of Gotop Education speaking.
But I'm asking you now…
as your one and only brother.
I don't have to tell you
how important you are to me. Right?
Without you, there would be
no Gotop Education or me.
So I take your word for it
when it comes to most things. However…
not Kang Min.
That punk has already crossed the line.
Okay.
Oh, right. Are you really going
to do the special lecture?
To be honest, I'm against it.
You'll be doing it with Mr. Park
who ruined your life.
That's why I'm doing it,
so I can see that jerk's face.
GOTOP EDUCATION CEO NOH GOJIN
What is it?
What?
It's nothing. It's something I ordered.
When did you say
you were going to the States?
On the 24th. I'll be gone for five days.
-That's pretty long.
-Gosh, tell me about it.
I'll be having three meetings
with Mos Company.
This is our first step
into the American market.
We ought to be careful.
Oh, right. And Eutteum School was
acquired by Gunil Group.
Darn it.
Why are the conglomerates
getting into our industry?
What do you plan to do on your vacation?
Going to Gangneung again?
Don't just stay in your vacation house
and get around.
The beaches in Gangneung
are really nice, you know.
Don't worry about me.
I'll be spending
a romantic time with my girlfriend.
-You don't have a girlfriend.
-I do.
I'll go right after the special lecture
and spend an amazing time
with my girlfriend. So don't you dare
call me from the States.
Yes, sir. I won't.
I can't believe I'm using
last year's summer vacation days now.
But can you reconsider
the special lecture--
Gosh, seriously. There you go again.
Stop that nonsense
and just get back to work.
Oh, Gojin.
Happy birthday.
WRITING THIS WITH MY BLOOD NOW
YOUR BLOOD NEXT TIME
YOU SCUMBAG!
YOU MAKE ME WANT TO VOMI
NOH GOJIN, I HOPE YOU DIE
It's obvious
that this punk has no life.
How cute.
Here is your sandwich, ma'am.
What?
This is ham and cheese.
Where's the beef special?
Well, it was sold out.
I'll go earlier next time. I'm sorry.
I see. There is no need for that.
Next time, just quit.
The fact that you stayed
this long assisting our CEO
is a tragedy.
A tragedy.
You eat it.
1 YEAR!
Pack your things.
If this is all you can do, just quit!
Run now. This is hell.
Not even Hades would put up with this!
No.
I put up with it.
I gave it my all and put up with it.
1 YEAR!
I put up with it for a year.
I'm so proud of you, Lee Sina!
Happy birthday indeed.
What are you doing over there?
-Hurry. Come on.
-Let's run.
-Darn it.
-Hurry.
-One, two, three.
-One, two, three.
-Come on. Let's go.
-There.
-Hurry.
-No, that way.
My condolences.
Mr. Oh.
Are you going home now?
Yes.
Ms. Lee,
can we talk for a moment?
Well… Okay.
Ta-da! Ms. Lee, congratulations
on your one-year work anniversary!
How… did you know?
Mr. Noh asked me to give this to you.
I'm sure he knows too.
Thank you so much for your hard work.
Thank you.
And this.
A small bonus for your vacation funds.
Vacation funds?
You should take some days off
while Mr. Noh is on vacation, Ms. Lee.
You didn't get off
summer vacation last year either.
Well…
Thank you.
Also… don't give up on your dream
of becoming an instructor.
Wherever you are
or whatever you may be doing,
as long as
you don't give up on your dream,
your dream will come true in the end.
I'll let you know if there's an opening.
Okay. Thank you.
This is going to taste great
Let's eat.
What's that?
Why did you buy flowers?
I didn't. They were a gift.
From whom?
My angel.
"My angel"?
Your crush, the deputy CEO?
Did he ask you out?
No, it's not like that.
Then why are you blushing?
I'm not blushing.
If he didn't ask you out,
why did he give you flowers?
For my one-year work anniversary.
He thanked me for my work.
Jeez, that's all?
Okhee, it's finally been a year for me.
I put up working
as Mr. Noh Manners' secretary for a year!
I'll have a chance to apply
if there's an opening!
My dad was right.
"Good things come to those who wait."
Hey. Wait another year
and you'll become a druggie.
Go get a head CT.
You've been
constantly taking headache pills.
Gosh, you nag so much.
I already booked an appointment.
He really is an angel without wings.
How did he even remember this?
All of his secretaries quit.
No one has lasted three months
under that jerk,
but you lasted a year.
He must be so grateful
to have a pushover like you.
But he's terrible at giving gifts.
You're losing hair
and suffering from shingles,
chronic migraines, and indigestion.
You had to take a fistful of pills.
Flowers? He should've bought you
some ribeye steak.
-You get out.
-Jeez, I just meant…
-Get out.
-Don't push. It's dangerous. Gosh!
“Don't give up on your dream
of becoming an instructor.”
Gosh, he's so cool.
MR. NOH GOJIN, MR. PARK YANGTAE
ROOTING FOR THE NEXT GENERATION
It's been a while
since I've been back to my alma mater.
-Hello.
-Hello. Welcome.
It's been so long.
-Thank you for inviting me.
-Welcome.
Nice to meet you.
Is that…
Welcome.
The two best instructors
from the private education sector,
Mr. Noh Gojin of Gotop Education
and Mr. Park Yangtae of Ilpum Edu.
I'm so happy to have you both here.
The two best instructors?
You're going to give people
the wrong idea.
Ilpum Edu has
a long history and tradition.
How could it be compared
to Gotop with no roots?
You sure are funny.
Shall we go inside?
What's wrong?
Number one…
shouldn't walk side by side
with lowly number two.
He's so annoying.
You think you're a movie star? Jeez.
What a great world we live in now.
How did a lowlife janitor
without any class
get to give a lecture
at the most prestigious university?
Don't you agree, Mr. Noh?
CEO PARK YANGTAE
What are you doing?
Hey!
Why are you scribbling on my board?
Wait.
Did you…
solve this?
Really?
It wasn't even that hard.
Fine. I'll erase it.
You're right.
I have you to thank, Mr. Park,
for helping a lowlife like me
become an instructor.
That's why I prepared
a nice surprise for you
as a token of my gratitude.
Please look forward to it.
That's a nice tie.
Is it made of gold foil?
What? What are you doing?
What the heck are you doing?
What was that?
Hey.
I was just wondering
if you had wings when you fell.
How does it feel to be number two?
What, you punk?
You can't get worked up already.
Once my lecture ends,
you're going to get humiliated
in front of the juniors.
-Why you--
-Oh, right.
Don't go on the Internet today.
You'll be too embarrassed to fall asleep.
Why you…
Hey!
Hey, Noh Gojin! Stop right there!
Hey!
Who are these two-bit thugs?
Do you have a death wish?
Darn you, Noh Gojin!
I'm going to kill you!
-Sir, please calm down.
-Noh Gojin! Hey!
Darn it. Let go of me!
NOH GOJIN, THE STAR LECTURER!
ROOTING FOR THE NEXT GENERATION
MR. NOH GOJIN, MR. PARK YANGTAE
SPECIAL GUEST LECTURE
CEO NOH GOJIN
Move aside.
Hey, where's the file for the big data?
You said you would bring it
after you check it yesterday.
Where did I put it?
Where is it? Where did I put it?
Oh, no! This is bad.
If you were the file, where would you be?
What? You said you would--
Forget it.
Mr. Noh is going to throw a fit.
I'm in trouble. What do I do?
Tell Ms. Lee to bring it.
But you don't know where it is.
Right. So tell Ms. Lee
to find it and bring it here.
As mentioned,
very special guests
have come to our school today.
Mr. Park Yangtae of Ilpum Edu
who represents
the private education sector
and the star instructor,
Mr. Noh Gojin of Gotop Education.
Let's give them a warm welcome.
MR. NOH GOJIN, MR. PARK YANGTAE
SPECIAL GUEST LECTURE
After listening
to their lectures for the youth,
we'll also have a Q and A session.
First, Mr. Park Yangtae
of Ilpum Edu will give his lecture.
Hello, I'm Park Yangtae,
the CEO of Ilpum Edu.
I feel so great and youthful again
standing here looking at you today.
I'm nervous and full of emotions
to be back at my alma mater
after so long…
My apologies.
Mr. Park.
I'm good.
Come on, Mr. Park.
Are you still upset?
Everyone,
earlier in the waiting room,
I pulled a small prank on Mr. Park.
My intention was
to get friendlier with Mr. Park,
but he seems to have been upset about it.
Mr. Park, I would like to apologize.
Please accept this water
as a token of my apology
and forgive me.
Did you spike it
with the strongest you could find?
Yes, sir.
Please drink up!
One more thing, everyone.
Please give a big round of applause
to Mr. Park once again.
Mr. Park…
will donate one billion won
to his alma mater for you guys!
One billion won?
THE LEGEND OF ADMISSIONS
CEO PARK YANGTAE
Gosh, he loves his juniors so much.
I'm so touched.
All right now,
why don't we listen
to the great Mr. Park's lecture now?
Sir,
you have my full attention.
It only feels like yesterday
I was sitting where you are sitting now.
I'm feeling so many things right now.
Today…
-Today…
-What's going on?
I'll be talking about the path
that the youth ought to take and…
the world of online classes…
you are curious about…
-Please excuse me.
-What?
-One moment.
-What's wrong with him?
Mr. Park must be feeling
a bit too nervous.
Perhaps… why don't I start then?
Oh, gosh.
Excuse me. Help!
It's urgent! Please!
Gosh.
Questions?
Any questions?
You with the glasses in the sixth row.
Is your IQ really 190?
I entered the Mega Society 14 years ago.
So it should be higher by now.
Next question.
Aren't you sick of teaching
the same CSAT Math every year?
I'm very sick of it.
And it's quite lame too.
-Then why do you do it?
-To make money.
What? Is that funny?
Yes, it's a bit disappointing.
-Why is that?
-You're a genius.
But you're doing it just for money.
Have you ever…
starved because you had no money?
-No.
-I have. I starved for a week
because I didn't have any money.
My parents killed themselves
because they were poor.
My grandma also died in pain
because she couldn't afford
to get her cancer treated in time.
And I, who was nine at the time…
could only watch her suffer and die.
I'm going to do
everything I can to make money.
I won't die doing manual labor
like William James Sidis
or of tuberculosis
like Srinivasa Ramanujan.
I…
do not want to die
a miserable death because of poverty.
ROOTING FOR THE NEXT GENERATION
My story was a bit somber, wasn't it?
But don't you feel
like we've become a bit closer now?
Yes. Giving a lecture wouldn't be any fun
without these gleaming eyes.
All right.
Let me start my real lecture now.
Please look over here.
SPECIAL GUEST LECTURE
Ms. Lee forgot the flash drive.
I'm sorry. I should've prepared it myself.
It's my fault.
Well…
My secretary forgot
the presentation…
Wait.
Does anyone here
want to be an instructor?
That's a lot of you.
But if you are one of these people,
you should give up that dream
right away. Because…
you'll never become an instructor.
Curious to find out who?
If you can't help prepare for others,
you can't help prepare
for yourself either. Why?
People like that
are mostly careless,
irresponsible, and lazy.
In the ever-changing battlefield
of the online education industry,
they will…
never become an instructor.
Or else, I'll eat my hat.
NOH GOJIN'S MATHEMATICAL CONCEPTS
Gosh, my head hurts.
They will…
never become an instructor.
Don't give up on your dream
of becoming an instructor.
That's right. Don't give up, Lee Sina.
Don't you know who you are?
You're the miraculous secretary
who survived a year in this hell.
Be confident. That's right.
You can do it, Lee Sina!
Hello! This is Lee Sina from Catch Korean!
Today, we're going to study morphemes,
which a lot of you have
a hard time understanding…
Ms. Lee.
Are you working late today?
Yes, I am!
Ms. Lee Sina, this is Gwangae Hospital.
Your appointment is at 9 a.m. tomorrow.
Ms. Lee Sina.
-Yes.
-Please go in.
NOH GOJIN'S MATHEMATICAL CONCEPTS
Pardon me.
Where are all the teaching assistants?
They're having a meeting in Gangneung.
-Gangneung?
-Yeah.
Out of the blue, Mr. Noh made everyone
come to Gangneung this morning.
They were all scrambling
to get over there.
You didn't know?
-No.
-My goodness.
Even I knew it
and I'm just a cleaner here.
How could his secretary not know that?
Jeez, seriously.
Yes? Hello?
Is this Ms. Lee Sina?
Yes, this is she.
I'm calling from Gwangae Hospital.
You were busy earlier,
so you only took the MRI scan, correct?
Yes.
Can you come to the hospital now?
When did your migraines
start to get serious?
I think it's been about a year.
Recently, I've been taking
headache pills every day.
DR. HAN JIHO
I advise you to get admitted.
Get admitted?
Ms. Lee, you have a glioblastoma.
A glio… What's that?
It's cancer. A brain tumor.
You should prepare yourself.
What do you mean, prepare myself?
You're at the final stage.
I… have a brain tumor?
I'm going to die?
Is this a dream?
Am I having a dream right now?
-Did you wait long?
-You didn't have to come.
-Goodness.
-Since it's snowing a lot.
I guess…
I won't be able to get old like them.
Who are you?
I said, who are you?
What's this about?
What the heck are you doing?
How did you get in here?
