Crash Course in Romance (2023) s01e04 Episode Script

CRASH COURSE IN ROMANCE
This is driving me crazy.
That was the most physical affection
I've had in ages.
She's going to be mortified
once she sobers up.
This is hilarious.
It's just too hilarious.
Mr. Choi!
Mr. Choi!
Mr. Choi Chi-yeol!
Thank you so much! You know I…
Hold on!
REVOLT OF THE ARITHMETIC SEQUENCE
Yes. It hurts, doesn't it?
Isn't your head throbbing?
Don't you wish you could
smash your head in with a hammer?
You should've stopped drinking
when you were feeling tipsy.
You went way overboard last night.
Do you think you're still young?
You're no longer the super rookie you were
in your twenties.
I'm aware of that, so cut it out.
I'm regretting it.
So about yesterday.
Do you remember everything?
I wish I didn't.
I see.
Yesterday at around 10:30 p.m.,
you were going home drunk.
Then from afar…
you saw Mr. Choi,
the star teacher, approaching.
So you let out a shriek out of the blue
and then ran toward him.
Then you lifted him up and--
That's enough!
I'm suffering both physically
and psychologically.
Jeez. Hey, even I was embarrassed!
You should've seen his bewildered face.
What should I do?
Should I not come to work for a few days?
-Or should I stay in the kitchen?
-Yes.
I'm too embarrassed to see him--
Hello, Mr. Choi. You're here early today.
I am.
I guess Ms. Nam isn't here yet.
Yes, well…
Hello, Ms. Cho.
Why are you calling?
The moms are gathering
for the All Care Program?
Of course, I'll be there.
I'll see you then. Goodbye.
Hello, Mr. Choi.
So tell me.
Are you feeling all right today?
All right?
Of course, I feel fine.
Why? Did something happen yesterday?
Did it, Yeong-ju?
It's nothing.
Never mind if you don't remember.
You know I really like you, right?
Sorry?
Sorry?
I was talking to the braised burdock.
It's one of my favorite side dishes.
I see. The braised burdock.
I see.
That was hilarious.
Why is she so hilarious?
I laughed so much that my stomach hurts.
Yes, Mr. Ji.
Mr. Choi,
Director Kang would like to see you.
I think it's about the schedule.
Jeez.
The answer is 12 over 5.
Did you guys all get that?
I hope you did.
Okay, that's it for today.
When are we meeting again?
Next week.
What is it, Mr. Yang?
What?
Damn it, is he serious?
I'm hanging up.
Why are you doing this to me?
I can't take Choi Chi-yeol's spot.
Then what about the students?
Everyone knows
he's competing with Perfect M.
Do you want me to lose all the students?
What choice do I have?
Someone needs to take his spot.
But why me of all people?
You're basically asking me to fail!
Damn it.
Thank you.
-It's nice to meet you all.
-It's nice to meet you all.
I can't drink
because I need to pick up Su-a later.
Okay.
I know this gathering was quite sudden,
so thank you all for coming.
Time is precious
when it comes to admissions.
And I thought it'd be smart
to quickly figure out what to do
for our and our kids' sakes.
We're just grateful for this gathering.
I wanted us to meet up and talk.
By the way,
I didn't want to come here empty-handed,
so I brought some side dishes.
Goodness.
Hold on.
Would it be weird to have them with beer?
-Come on.
-Not at all.
Goodness, they look so delectable.
I'm on a diet, but I'm going
to gain weight thanks to you.
Jeez, you're already skinny,
to begin with.
Wear elastic waist pants next time,
and I'll fatten you up.
Really? Fine, I'll do that.
Seems Ms. Jang is late once again.
She makes it obvious
that she's a working mom.
If she'd told us she couldn't make it,
we would've rescheduled.
-Right?
-Right.
That must be her. I'll get the door.
Okay, thanks.
Ms. Nam is fun to be around.
I agree. She's pleasant
-and easygoing.
-Hello.
She has to be like that
to run her business.
-Hello. Ms. Jang is here.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello, Ms. Jang.
-Hello.
I'm sorry for being late.
We're already done with scheduling.
You came just in time for the after-party.
The boring part is over.
Is that so? What a bummer.
Would you like some beer?
Or do you only drink beverages
like wine, Ms. Jang?
No, beer is fine.
Let me.
It's fine. I can do it.
I should catch up.
Does Geon-hu come to school to sleep?
Doesn't his arm hurt?
Is he not competing anymore?
No, he badly injured his shoulder.
He might have to give up hockey.
Seriously?
-Didn't he start in elementary school?
-Yes.
It must be upsetting for him.
Guys!
They'll accept C as well
for question number 25 in English.
The teachers agreed.
-Really?
-Yes.
-So there are two answers?
-Yes.
I guessed C. Awesome.
-Yes!
-Yes!
They can't do that.
That's absurd.
What the…
What's her deal?
This is unfair.
The question may have been vague,
but there were those
who correctly picked D.
It's absurd for them to get the same score
as those who picked C.
That's true.
But Su-a, the teacher who made
that question acknowledged their mistake.
And we already agreed
to accept both answers,
so it can't be helped.
We've already graded the tests too.
Already?
Then what's the cutoff for Level 1?
By how much did it go up?
You see…
In the All Care Program curriculum,
don't you think the Language Arts class
is weaker than other subjects?
We should address this with the academy
or have makeup classes.
They need more classes
during the exam weeks.
Our kids need to be
on their toes at all times.
You have a lot to say
for someone who came late.
And we're all strict
when it comes to our kids' studies,
but you're going overboard.
Go easy on your son,
or he'll go down the wrong path.
But Sun-jae is such an obedient kid.
Who knows?
Kids like Su-a who whine and complain
tend to be healthier.
Those who are obedient
stay bottled up and flip out later.
Remember that case from a decade ago?
A girl from this area committed suicide
after taking so many academy classes.
And her younger sibling
pushed their mom to her death.
Really?
-Yes.
-But I thought
the kid was acquitted
due to lack of evidence.
No.
Sure, that was the outcome.
But circumstantial evidence
says otherwise.
That kid resented the mother
and pushed her off the balcony.
Goodness.
I heard this from a police officer
in the investigation.
Did you know that in Korea, less than
one percent of suspects are acquitted?
It is ignorant and dangerous
to accuse the acquitted of being guilty.
"Ignorant"?
Did you just outright call me stupid?
Jeez, Ms. Jang.
You sure are rude.
Or do you just
lack social skills or something?
Why are you laughing?
It's funny to hear that from someone
who doesn't contribute to society.
Are you serious right now?
Come on. Don't ruin the mood.
Ms. Jang, please stop.
Hey.
You're a year younger than me, right?
I'll speak casually to you.
Do us moms look like a joke to you
just because you're a lawyer?
I don't contribute to society?
You have the audacity to criticize us
after coming late just because you work.
Hey.
Who are you to look down on me?
Come on.
I'm Suaimdang.
Do you think these moms
will side with me or with you?
-Ms. Cho.
-Answer me!
Are you challenging me? Are you?
Why aren't you talking?
You're looking down on me, aren't you?
Will you not answer me?
-Hey!
-Gosh!
-You little…
-Su-hui.
-Please calm down.
-Move.
I'm okay.
I'm okay.
Ms. Jang.
Ms. Jang!
Don't leave like this.
It's not like you'll never see her again.
I don't plan on it.
Su-hui, don't be so upset.
You're the leader of this gathering.
Leader, my foot. What kind of leader
is looked down on like this?
But still,
you shouldn't fight when our kids
haven't even started their first class.
-Why don't you reconcile--
-Forget it.
This is annoying, so you should go.
I need to pick up Su-a.
Just go.
Even kids don't fight
in such a primitive way.
They're full-grown adults.
Moms of the All Care Program at that.
But they became so immature
when they saw red.
So who won?
No one won.
Whether someone's learned
or just on a power trip,
they're all childish
once they start fighting.
Su-a's mom got all worked up
and started bombarding her with words.
And Sun-jae's mom
just stared at her, then…
That was her final blow.
Seriously?
Sun-jae's mom was the winner.
She's like a jaguar.
Jaguars kill their prey
with one final blow.
I'm worried that the group
will come to an end
before the program even starts.
You think they would
see each other again after that?
-I'm back.
-Hey.
-Hi, Hae-e.
-Hey.
Hi, Hae-e.
Mom, guess what?
I got Level 1 for the math final.
You always barely managed to get Level 2.
You did so well. Come here.
I'm so proud of you.
Mom.
What's with your face?
It's nothing.
I'm so proud of you. Well done.
It's all thanks to Mr. Choi.
He really helped us fully prepare for it.
This kiwi is red.
These red ones are full of vitamins.
-It's very sweet.
-Yes. This is just for you.
Thank you.
Mom.
I suddenly feel motivated.
To do what?
I'm going to study as best as I can
and become the top student
in the country for the CSAT.
That's too much.
Don't be too greedy.
No, I want to.
I want to appear on the news.
Who knows? Maybe she'll see me.
Who?
You know. The one who abandoned me.
But I don't know
if that'll be sweet revenge.
Mom, I'm craving
your braised chicken for dinner.
-Sure. I'll make some for you.
-Okay.
Is it good?
Yes.
Eat up.
Thanks.
Su-a, this is the first time
you didn't get Level 1 in English.
It's not the end of the world.
You got Level 1 on all the other subjects.
Your CSAT is your strength anyway.
I was supposed to be Level 1!
It's all because of Hae-e.
From that side dish store?
What did she do this time?
She's the reason why
I was lowered to Level 2!
Because of her, the teacher accepted
multiple answers for a question,
and the cutoff for Level 1
went up by two points.
Goodness.
Why does she keep getting in your way?
That little brat.
I don't know! I hate her so much!
Goodness.
I already hate that we're classmates,
so how do you expect me
to be in the same program as her?
I'm so stressed out that I want to die!
Don't say that!
Watch what you say!
"I want to die"?
Don't scare me like that. Come here.
Su-a.
Have some water. Here.
You're going to get dehydrated.
Drink up.
It's lukewarm.
I don't want it!
Gosh.
Why would you force her to drink that?
Wipe it up.
All right.
Hello?
Who is this?
I spoke with Director Kang.
He said your opinion was crucial
in getting Young-min
into the All Care Program.
That's why I requested that we meet.
Right. I do have quite the influence.
Young-min lost his concentration
during the level test
because he was bothered
by some kid in his class.
He's a very competent boy.
He's been following The Pride's curriculum
for his grades and the CSAT.
So I thought he would definitely
get into the All Care Program.
I'm just very flustered.
I'd appreciate it
if you could convince the other moms
to allow Young-min
to study with their kids.
I'm not too sure.
There must be a reason why
only seven kids are in that program.
I don't think it's right to change that.
But perhaps there's a way
to bring in your son
and still maintain
the same number of students.
How?
Actually,
there's one student who might not be
at the same level as our kids.
I can't believe I made this.
Should I sell some this evening?
Forget it.
I won't be making
much money off of it anyway.
It's a pity, but it'll be for just us--
But that would be a shame.
Mr. Choi.
I've prepared a special meal to celebrate
Hae-e's Level 1 achievement in math.
Please stop by later this evening
after your classes.
From Nam Haeng-seon of Nation's Best.
"Nam Haeng-seon."
What a name.
It suits her.
Nation's Best…
MS. NAM HAENG-SEON
OF NATION'S BEST BANCHAN
Mr. Choi, I added an extra shot.
I'm not drinking coffee today.
You can have it.
You always have some before class
to give you energy.
But today, I'm going to try
to maintain an empty stomach.
I already have more than enough energy.
I'm feeling great!
Wait.
About earlier today…
I got too worked up.
But then again, you did provoke me.
What is this?
Anyway,
let bygones be bygones.
Care to have some tea with me?
So let me get this straight.
You want my approval
to replace Hae-e with Young-min.
Is that correct?
No, that's not what I mean.
Well…
Yes, that's correct.
I guess it boils down to that.
But this isn't just for Su-a--
No, thank you.
I don't want to get involved in this.
Seeing how you're seeking our approval,
it doesn't seem approved by the academy.
And I don't remember reading about
that restriction in the announcement.
I think that's a violation of
the Act on Fair Labeling and Advertising.
Right, that.
I'll pretend that I didn't hear this.
So exactly what is your plan?
1:7 ALL CARE PROGRAM
WITH STAR TEACHERS FOR THE TOP 0.01%
How should the graph look
to maximize the value of a sub ten?
It should lean to the right.
Then what are the values?
They're 2, 3, and 12.
Then what about a sub 10?
So a sub ten is…
a sub six plus five times four,
which equals 22.
Did you get that?
-Yes.
-Yes.
What's going on? Why are you so down?
Tired since we're nearing the end?
Should I rejuvenate you?
-Yes.
-Yes.
I only do this the day before the CSAT.
Okay.
That's it for today.
Do talk to my teaching assistants
if you need any help.
And I'm…
Choi Chi-yeol.
Bye, guys.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
Do you have any questions?
No, not today.
Will I get to ask him questions directly
in the All Care Program?
Yes, it's only a few of us.
I'm getting butterflies.
What's going on?
Have you also become a fan of his?
Yes. Ever since my first class.
His explanations are simple
and to the point.
I have my trust in him for the CSAT.
Gosh, you even got into the program too.
A dream come true.
I wonder what she made
that she even texted me about it.
A special meal?
Could it be eel?
I prefer webfoot octopus.
I'm so hungry.
NATION'S BEST BANCHAN
You didn't have to come out.
Ms. Nam, I'm…
Wait. Where are you going?
Where's my special meal?
What's going on?
I'd like to ask you the same question.
Let go. I need to look into this.
What's going on?
She was the one
who got me all excited about the food.
What is it, Mr. Ji?
Mr. Choi,
I think there has been a change
in the All Care Program.
What change?
What in the world is going on?
We were told we were accepted yesterday,
and I even met with the other moms today.
But she's disqualified now?
Ma'am, please calm down first.
How could I possibly calm down?
Is this academy a joke?
Is studying a joke?
Of course not, ma'am.
We acknowledge our mistake.
But it is part of our rule
to only accept students
for the All Care Program
who have attended
all of the star teachers' classes.
What kind of rule is that?
When did you set that up?
That wasn't in the announcement.
Look. "Requirements."
"Open to any 11th grader
who has passed the level test."
Those were the only requirements,
so when was that rule made?
Ma'am, it's impossible to write down
all of our academy's rules.
Those two were the basics.
This is neither a state institution
nor a public school.
This is a private business.
It is up to the academy
to decide which students to pick.
Is that so?
This is no different from snatching away
an athlete's hard-earned gold medal.
She took the test
and got the acceptance text.
Now you take it back?
How could such a big academy
do something like this?
How could you use your power like this?
Ma'am.
I'm okay.
I'm really okay.
I told you before that the program
was too much pressure.
I never needed to attend an academy
to get good grades.
The math class is enough for me. Really.
-So don't get all worked up.
-Hey, but still--
Even the name is cheesy.
"All Care"? It's so tacky.
So don't worry about me, okay?
That requirement is news to me.
Since when did we have that?
It's one of the basics.
We've only been accepting students
who followed our curriculum.
But that student only took
a month's worth of your class.
You know the difficulty level
of the All Care Program.
How can she keep up with the others
when she hasn't taken
the previous classes?
If she needed to take prior courses,
she could've taken online classes
or been given extra material.
It wouldn't have been a problem at all.
She proved herself
by passing the level test.
So how could you take back her acceptance?
DIRECTOR KANG JUN-SANG
Mr. Choi, I'm a businessman.
I have my reasons for doing this.
Could you please just
turn a blind eye to this?
Please?
Okay.
Okay.
Thanks, Mr. Choi. I'll repay--
I'd like to opt out of this as well.
Opt out of what?
The All Care Program?
Yes, I'm out.
You see, I find corruption
and shadiness detestable.
"Corruption"? That's a bit harsh!
I had my reasons--
I'm sure you had your reasons.
But I'm a teacher, not a director.
I hate how shady this is.
If you were going to do this,
why did I make the test,
and why did the students take it?
I just don't understand.
I'm really not amused by this.
I'm dropping out.
Don't do this.
You're essential to the program.
We've been doing well lately, right?
You improved my reputation
by doing the admission talk show.
The moms will have a fit.
Your name was on the announcement!
If you leave, it's a scam!
Do you want me behind bars?
In that case, when you added my name,
you should've checked that
you posted all of the requirements.
Let's just do it for now. Okay?
Let's worry about the future later.
I'll take responsibility for everything.
I find that detestable as well.
Acting first, thinking later.
Changing your mind would be quicker
than trying to change mine.
You know this is a breach of contract.
I'll call the legal team.
Sure. I'll see you in court then.
What did he say? Did it work out?
No.
It's not easy.
I thought so too.
I asked the head manager too,
and I think everything is set.
So I said I'd drop out too.
Did you have to do that?
This is unfair, you know?
I don't know what the deal is,
and I don't want to know either.
But saying yes to this
will only bring more corruption.
I don't want to get involved whatsoever.
I understand,
but the other students
in the program will suffer too.
I'm sure the academy is aware of that.
But if they still don't listen to me,
it means there's some sort of corruption.
Let's see what he decides to do.
You're being inconsistent again.
-What?
-You said you couldn't look after
every student in your classes.
But look at you now.
That's not why.
I just don't like what he's doing.
You better not post anything
on your social media
about how I put my students first.
I don't use social media.
I know that.
Why don't you?
Aren't you Gen Z?
-No!
-Move.
Catch it.
-That was close.
-Watch out!
I'm scared.
-Nice.
-Good one.
Move back.
-Hae-e!
-Are you okay?
Are you all right? Put your head back.
You're bleeding. Anyone have tissues?
Hey, move. That's not how you do it.
Spit out the blood.
I'm okay.
He's giving me butterflies.
-You should talk to her.
-Okay.
-Hello.
-Hello, Ms. Nam!
Hey, Haeng-seon.
I heard about Hae-e.
I can't believe it.
They should've told you
the requirements in advance.
I was so upset to hear that.
Oh, well.
By the way,
I'm sorry to ask you this, but…
could you leave our All Care group chat?
We need to share information,
but we're hesitant
because you're still in there.
Okay, I'll do that.
Wait.
Could you do it right now?
I need to invite the new kid's mother too.
Done.
-Thanks.
-Don't be too disheartened!
Dan-ji didn't even make it
into that program!
Can you leave
if you're not going to buy anything?
Goodbye.
Haeng-seon.
Are you okay?
Shouldn't you see the nurse?
No, I'm okay.
Wasn't Geon-hu so amazing?
He grabbed her nose
and then lowered her head.
This is bad.
I have a crush on him.
Hey, congratulations.
Good luck.
What's going on with me these days?
I was kicked out of the program
and got a bloody nose from Su-a.
Where are you going?
I'm even in charge of recycling today.
I'll give 1,000 won to anyone
who's unluckier than I am.
Do you want me to come?
No. I need some alone time.
Come on.
Why are you doing this to me?
Why?
Let me speak to your director.
I said he's not here right now.
Ma'am, please book an appointment
and come back.
You're putting us
in a pickle by doing this.
You're in a pickle?
I'm the one who's actually in a pickle.
You said it was up to the academy,
and the director is the boss here.
-So let me speak to him.
-Ma'am.
Why won't you let me see him?
Then who can I talk to about this?
I understand, ma'am.
I'll relay the message when he arrives.
I'll call you later, so please go home.
You won't call me.
I know you won't call me.
Aren't I right?
I'll wait here.
I'll wait for him,
so you can go do your jobs.
Ma'am, you can't do this.
No, you can go do your job.
-Ma'am.
-Please get up.
-What are you doing? Let me go.
-Please get up.
-This way.
-What is this?
-Ma'am.
-I'm going to wait for him.
Come again.
Okay.
Jae-woo, call your sister again.
Where did she go in the middle of the day?
Yeong-ju, why do you never call her
and always make me do it?
I can call her myself.
But…
Hey.
Just do as I say.
You've sure grown up a lot, Jae-woo.
Back then, you were too scared
to look me in the eye.
I must be too lenient with you these days.
Should I teach you a lesson?
I was never afraid of you.
-Really?
-No.
Haeng-seon is the scary one.
She turns into a lunatic
when she gets mad.
You're right.
When she goes crazy,
she becomes downright insane.
She becomes a lunatic.
You got that right.
Haeng-seon.
Where have you been?
What are you doing? Where are you going?
Haeng-seon.
Nam Haeng-seon!
1:7 ALL CARE PROGRAM
WITH STAR TEACHERS FOR THE TOP 0.01%
Hello, everyone.
I am the mother of a teenage daughter,
and I run a side dish store
in this neighborhood.
First of all, I apologize for this ruckus.
But I just can't condone
the treatment I have received recently.
Let me explain.
My daughter had been accepted
to the Med School All Care Program.
But suddenly, she was kicked out
on the pretext of an obscure rule.
To Director Kang Jun-sang of The Pride,
who won't even see me,
I officially request a meeting!
Sir, I'd like to speak with you!
The lowest thing you can do
is to take back something
you've already given.
You shouldn't have accepted her
in the first place,
or you should offer
a plausible explanation for her removal.
-Hello, Director Kang.
-Hi.
-Director Kang.
-Yes?
Who are you again?
I'm Nam Hae-e's mom.
Could you spare me a minute, please?
I see.
I'm sorry, but I have a meeting to attend.
-Next time.
-Wait.
You're avoiding me, aren't you?
Why are you avoiding me?
You're in a pickle, right?
No, it's not like that.
Then what is it? Help me understand!
Why is my daughter disqualified?
-Tell me.
-Look.
I'll tell someone at work
to call you immediately.
-Gosh.
-Are you okay?
Damn it.
Are you all right?
-Oh, no.
-Darn it.
Did that lady leave yet?
She's still waiting for you outside.
She must've been flustered too
because she kept asking
the front desk if you were okay.
Why does she care about me now?
This is actually better.
Report her for obstruction of business.
You want me to report this?
Right now?
Then when? After she leaves?
She's giving us a good reason to do so.
Obstruction of business.
How could I accept the student of a mother
who caused my injury?
Just blacklist her.
Okay? What was her name again?
Nam Hae-e.
That's not a bad idea. Blacklisting her.
Win the public over.
If necessary, post about this online
and include her initials.
Yes, sir.
THE PRIDE
Let go of me.
What are you doing?
I usually find interfering
in other people's business detestable.
But you're so frustrating.
Why are you so reckless?
Did you think this would solve it?
Then what should I do?
Should I just give up? I'm…
I'm her mom after all.
Then you should've done something wiser,
not thrown straws against the wind.
Or just…
Just don't do anything because I'm…
Your daughter
can't take any
of our academy's classes now.
She's blacklisted. Do you get it?
Blacklisted?
It's their way of dealing with all sorts
of parents and students.
So Hae-e is banned
from taking your regular classes?
Because of what I did?
What a scary bunch of people.
It's their job to teach students.
But they toy with and blacklist her
because I demanded an explanation?
Unbelievable.
Just unbelievable.
So why would you…
This is why I don't make friends.
I get concerned.
I understand.
I won't concern you anymore.
I'll stop here.
Her grades may improve
thanks to your academy,
but there's nothing more to learn.
I don't want to send her there anymore.
It's already shiny enough.
You can stop wiping.
You've been wiping
for the past hour and 18 minutes.
Doesn't your arm hurt?
Hello, this is Nation's Best Banchan.
Sure, we do deliveries.
Thirty-two lunch boxes? Your address?
The Pride Academy counseling room?
It'll take about 30 minutes.
We'll deliver to--
Excuse me.
We won't accept any orders.
You can order from elsewhere.
No. We're not selling to The Pride.
It's up to me as the owner. Don't ask why.
I'm hanging up.
Mr. Ji, let's stop by Nation's Best.
Okay.
NATION'S BEST BANCHAN
She's taking it this far?
Should I talk to her?
You tried to get Nam Hae-e
back into that program.
There's no need.
Forget it.
WE DON'T SELL TO THOSE
AFFILIATED WITH THE PRIDE ACADEMY
STUDENTS AND PARENTS ARE EXCEPTIONS
OWNER NAM HAENG-SEON
Good work in Season 2.
We'll meet again in Season 3.
Take care of yourselves until then.
Admissions is a long fight.
And I hope all of you become winners.
This is the end of Season 2.
I'm Choi Chi-yeol.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
-You did well.
-You too.
-Mr. Choi!
Mr. Choi, you're not dropping out
of the All Care Program, are you?
It's a rumor, right?
That can't happen.
I only applied for it because of you.
Please don't leave us. Please?
I understand. Let me think about it.
No, Mr. Choi. Promise us.
I'm betting my life on this program.
I'll do my utmost best
and get into my dream university.
Why would you abandon us
for just one student?
We're really desperate.
Please give us your word.
You didn't have anything except coffee.
-Hello.
-Come eat.
I ordered some rice with grilled eel,
pizza, and other dishes too.
-I see.
-This looks good.
All right. Let's eat.
-Thank you for the meal.
-Thank you for the meal.
Enjoy the meal.
Have some pizza.
Look at this.
What is this?
-Is this salad?
-It's tasty.
This brick-oven pizza tastes pretty good.
-Right?
-Right?
I want some pizza.
-Do you want one?
-Yes. I want this.
-Have some eel.
-Okay.
NATION'S BEST BANCHAN
So y equals x.
They're symmetrical. Then what about p?
Like this, then q…
It'll look like this.
Once you substitute it, K is…
four.
Mr. Choi, I'm sleepy.
Can you show us your signature kick?
You're sleepy? We're only halfway done.
You shouldn't be sleepy just--
-Come on.
-Come on.
-Again.
-Again.
-Again.
-Again.
-Again.
-Again.
No, let's just move on.
What is the y-coordinate of p?
It'll be eight.
Did you get that?
Next.
Didn't I tell you to check in advance?
We already printed all these out.
Do you want to start all over? Do you?
Is that what you want?
Why is this here?
NATION'S BEST BANCHAN
I must be going insane.
Just because I can't have that lunch box,
I've become lethargic, sensitive,
and I'm even seeing things.
I've gone crazy, right?
Are these withdrawal symptoms?
I'm not sure.
Do you think
it's solely because of the food?
I think it's a psychological issue.
You failed to fix an unjust situation.
You feel guilty.
But you can't drop out of the program
since your students are begging you.
Maybe that's why…
you're mad at yourself.
After all, you're a very upright person.
Let's substitute these numbers.
So n is greater than nine
and less than 16.
Then what's the sum?
Seventy…
Who said you could sit?
Get out.
Do you think school is a place
you come to just for fun?
Go stand in the hall!
Will you continue coming to school?
Make up your mind.
If it's a no, you can formally drop out.
I don't want that.
So you want to come?
Then at least come to school
on time like the others do.
I know you might have to give up hockey.
I know that's difficult to accept.
But I hope you won't feel lost
for too long.
You're only 18.
You have so many options in life.
Do you know that?
Take some time
and seriously think…
about what you want to do.
Start off with that.
Can I get
the All Care workbooks by 6 p.m.?
Yes, I believe so. Let me check again.
How many people are grading?
-I'm going.
-One is not enough.
There's a free-response question,
so I need two more.
Okay, then I'll bring
Sang-jin and Jong-seo.
Okay. We need to talk.
Are you okay?
I'm going to be there
when they take the test,
so let's depart earlier.
I need to see how they solve the problems.
That's the benefit of a small class and--
All right, but you should rest for now.
And have this.
You're going to collapse
before the program even begins.
Then the moms will have a fit.
"Why didn't you take care of yourself?"
"Our kids will fail because of you."
Thank you.
I think it's a psychological issue.
You failed to fix an unjust situation.
You feel guilty.
But you can't drop out of the program
since your students are begging you.
Maybe that's why you're mad at yourself.
SKYMOM.NE
SPOTTED MR. CHOI AT A CAFE
So about that star teacher…
He used to come here all the time.
But now that he's nowhere to be seen,
I kind of miss him.
I also miss seeing
his fragile and pale manager.
I get that you're upset
because of Hae-e's situation.
But I think you're being a bit petty
by not selling food
to those affiliated with that academy.
The workers there are innocent.
Don't you agree?
What else can I do?
This is my only weapon.
Is Hae-e okay with studying
on her own again?
She's not the type to show her feelings.
But I'm sure it's tough on her.
Should we have a drink after work?
It's been a while.
Forget it.
You have that dance club after work.
If you want,
I can always take a rain check.
Don't do that.
Go flirt with your fling.
At least one of us should be happy.
The Med School All Care Program
starts today.
You must be nervous.
Why would I be? It's just studying.
It's different.
You'll be studying with six Su-as.
Jeez. I can predict how it'll be.
-If Hae-e were there--
-Hey.
What? Don't walk on eggshells around me.
When did I ever…
Right. I did do just that.
Hae-e. Sun-jae.
I need to go to the bathroom. Bye.
Unbelievable.
I'll share the workbook with you.
Take a look and ask me questions.
Forget it.
It'll feel like I'm cheating.
Are you okay?
-Oh, no.
-Oh, no.
Gosh.
I'm sorry. Hold on.
-Where's the tissue?
-Here. I'll clean it.
No, let me do it.
Sorry.
Hey, homeroom rep.
How do I study?
-What?
-Teach me.
Homeroom rep.
THE PRIDE ACADEMY
All right.
Next question.
Within this range,
a sub n plus one times s sub n
will be a negative number.
If n equals k, a sub n times
a sub n plus one times s sub n is…
Will this be a negative
or a positive number?
-A positive number.
-Right. Okay. It's a positive number.
So in conclusion,
for there to be
nine natural numbers to fit this…
I'm sorry.
What is m?
It'll be ten. No.
It'll be 11.
What's wrong with him?
Why is he struggling in the first class?
What did you say?
Never mind.
I was just talking to myself.
I came with high hopes
for this All Care Program.
I'm sorry for disappointing you.
But as for you,
you should learn to respect your teacher.
-"Lee Young-min"?
-This is so annoying.
You're not even a teacher at school,
so don't try to patronize me.
If you don't like my class, leave.
Don't bother the other students.
Damn it.
All right.
Since m equals 11,
s sub ten is…
The other teachers have had
issues with him as well.
He's always complaining and aggressive.
Kids like him deserve to be blacklisted.
So that spot was for that girl, right?
He replaced her, right?
Right.
He took Hae-e's spot
after she was kicked out.
Right.
If it were her in the class,
she would be so eager to study.
Mr. Ji, my car keys.
Wrap up and go home.
Where are you going?
He's so full of himself.
So what if he's the star teacher?
He's a joke.
Hey.
As a customer, was it wrong of me
to complain about the quality?
So what gives him the right
to tell me to leave?
I'm going to tell my mom about this.
I'll tell her he kicked me out.
Post it on Studyhard.com.
You'll get a ton of views.
Should I?
I hate the program.
And I also hate his class.
Then ask your mom to take you out.
I would've done so if I could.
But she's one scary woman.
If she puts her mind to it,
she can make the impossible possible.
She even kicked out a girl
from the program to get me in there.
That girl must've been flustered.
That's what happens if you have no power.
That's exactly why
you must succeed in life.
We can't be on the suffering end.
We need to cut down others
the same way my mom does.
So cool.
What was that?
Damn it!
Who the hell was that?
Damn it!
STAR TEACHER CHOI CHI-YEOL
MATH ALL CARE CLASS STEP 1
We're closed--
It's been a while.
What brings you here?
As you already know,
we don't sell to people from--
Let's resume the classes.
-Sorry?
-Your daughter.
I'll teach her again.
What do you…
-Did the academy change its mind?
-No.
-Then what?
-She can take my classes
in private.
Are you saying…
you'll offer private tutoring for Hae-e?
Under one condition.
"Condition"?
CRASH COURSE IN ROMANCE
She's the very opposite of discreet.
Darn it. My hands are trembling.
To be exact, it's not private tutoring.
I get to eat, and she gets to study.
It'll benefit both of us.
Hello, Mr. Choi! Come in.
You must keep this a secret.
Had it not been for the tutoring…
Isn't that Ms. Nam?
What is she doing here?
This place is huge.
I guess he scarfed down everything.
Is he still asleep?
