00:00Let's go.
00:30Let's go.
01:00Let's go.
01:10Jeez, he's walking too slowly.
01:13Let's go.
01:26What is he doing?
01:37What?
01:41Mr. Ka?
01:44Mr. Ka?
01:46Mr. Ka?
01:47Mr. Ka?
01:48Are you okay?
01:49Mr. Ka?
01:51Mr. Ka?
01:52Mr. Ka?
02:16Mr. Ka?
02:19Mr. Ka?
02:21Mr. Ka?
02:23Mr. Ka?
02:26Mr. Ka?
02:28Mr. Ka, you got to wake up.
02:30Mr. Ka!
02:34Mr. Ka!
02:35Mr. Ka!
02:35Mr. Ka!
02:45Wake up please!
02:57Do it, Yoiju. This is... This is about saving his life.
03:06Oh! Mr. Ka? Mr. Ka? Mr. Ka, are you okay?
03:16Mr. Ka? Are you okay?
03:22It's me, Mr. Ka. I'm Yoiju. Are you okay?
03:36What are you doing here?
03:39What am I doing here? Well, that's a bit hurtful. I was just trying to help you.
03:45Anyway, why did you pass out here? Don't tell me it was just because of that pigeon poop.
03:53You're kidding. Pigeon feces have all kinds of diseases and contain enough ammonia and uric acid to destroy a concrete
03:59bridge.
04:00Okay?
04:05Are you looking for something?
04:08Oh, your glasses. Would you like some help?
04:13Yes.
04:14All right.
04:41I heard something just now. Did you step on my glasses?
04:45No, not at all. It's not your glasses. No way. I just stepped on a branch and snapped just like
04:59that.
04:59What time is it?
05:00What?
05:00I asked for the time.
05:03Oh. Oh. It's 7.40 a.m.
05:09Go ahead and call Yun Dong-joo.
05:14Okay. Mr. Ka, it's locked. There. Um, here you go. Is your vision really that bad?
05:27Hey, it's me. Can you grab my spare glasses from the desk in my room? Think you can bring them
05:33to me?
05:35Yeah, I'll wait on the road to the bus stop. Okay.
05:40Oh. Where are they?
05:48I told you to carpool with us. And now look at what you've done.
05:52What do I do? Should I just throw them somewhere?
06:00Look, a quarter.
06:02Oh, seriously?
06:04We're running late. Let's go.
06:06Right. If we haven't found them, they're probably gone. The way I see it, someone who knows about glasses took
06:13them. They could tell they were expensive right away, don't you think?
06:16Uh-huh. Yep.
06:18Right?
06:18Yeah.
06:20I'll see you at school.
06:22Oh.
06:30What's with that look?
06:38Does she want a ride?
06:55We're almost there now.
06:57Oh, no. No, I'm good. I'm just really grateful for the ride.
07:02Okay.
07:03Okay.
07:09Okay.
07:13Guess what? I'm carpooling with the teachers. The PE teacher's driving, and I'm between the Japanese and Korean lit teachers.
07:18No way!
07:23How did that happen?
07:26It just did. I'll tell you later.
07:32I'm sliding back.
07:42I knew it. Mr. Yoon is just having to put up with Matt's selfish personality.
07:49Hmm.
07:51Up all night again?
07:56Just because you didn't let him sleep last night. Don't you know he's a sleepyhead?
07:59It wasn't intentional, okay? He wanted another round. That's what happened.
08:05I get how much you like it, but you need to let him sleep. All right?
08:11This is insane. What did they even do together all night?
08:15Dear God, please forgive me. I'll use these lines from my novel and accept my ticket to hell.
08:26What's wrong?
08:28Is it hot?
08:29Do you need the AC?
08:30Oh, no.
08:32No, no.
08:34No, no.
08:46What gives you the right to carpool with the teachers?
08:49Are you mute?
08:50Why won't you answer us?
08:51I want to know.
08:52Come on.
08:53Say something.
08:57What's she doing?
09:00Oh, hold on a second.
09:01If those girls find out that I'm here with you, they might kill me if I get off with you.
09:10Oh, dear.
09:11This is not good at all.
09:12No, no, no.
09:13If they find me in this car, that will kill me for sure.
09:15What am I supposed to do?
09:17Oh, my.
09:19Oh, oh.
09:21Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
09:33oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
09:37oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
09:37oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
09:37oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
09:37oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
10:23Oh, I need more oxygen.
10:34Well, it was a little offensive, but he pulled me out of a jam.
10:44It's because you didn't let me sleep last night.
10:47You know that I'm a sleepyhead.
10:52I knew it.
10:53There's definitely something between them.
11:04Well, then?
11:10Hey.
11:12Yes?
11:13Yes?
11:15Be honest now.
11:18About what?
11:19The fact that you stepped on my glasses while you were looking around for them.
11:25No, I didn't.
11:29You better not be lying, or you'll certainly regret this later.
11:32I'm definitely not lying.
11:35And your paper?
11:37I'm working on it.
11:45Hey, do you want to come to my house after?
11:48Come on.
11:48Oh, oh, he's here.
11:50Hello.
11:53Come in.
11:54What's going on?
11:57Oh.
11:59Oh, she's so pretty.
12:02Everyone, this is our new exchange student.
12:05She'll be studying with you for one semester.
12:08Introduce yourself.
12:10Hi, I'm Jenny.
12:13I'm here on an exchange program from Singapore.
12:16It's nice to meet you all.
12:18I'm really, really excited to be here.
12:20So, I hope we enjoy some great moments together.
12:25Welcome, Jenny.
12:28Sit over there.
12:29Okay.
12:32Oh, hi.
12:34Hi.
12:36She's so pretty.
12:46She's probably not used to the Korean culture and school life, so look out for her.
12:50Yes, Mr. Kong.
12:52Dismissed.
12:57Look, it's Jenny.
12:59Hi.
13:00Oh, my gosh.
13:01Where are you at?
13:02Hi.
13:02Nice to meet you.
13:03Hi.
13:03My name is Yoiju.
13:05So, uh...
13:06Oh, are you good at Korean?
13:08Yes.
13:09Okay, we'll be like...
13:11I'm not so good at English.
13:13So, I'm learning, Weiju.
13:15Weiju, I'll be able to learn fast if you help me.
13:18Oh, good.
13:19Oh, my name is Goya.
13:21Nice to meet you.
13:22Nice to meet you.
13:24Nice to meet you.
13:25Jenny, uh...
13:27Why did you come to Korea?
13:30Uh...
13:31Doesn't everybody want to come to Korea?
13:33Huh?
13:33Uh...
13:34There's a lot of delicious food, and...
13:36Right.
13:36I'd love to visit all the locations from Korean dramas.
13:40Oh, right.
13:40Yeah, the dramas.
13:42Yeah, yeah.
13:42That's right.
13:43So then, uh...
13:44Why did you come to Jeonju and not Seoul?
13:48Well, of course, I did apply to go to a school in Seoul at first.
13:52But I was on the computer, and I was like...
13:55Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.
13:57Eh?
13:58I chose this school by mistake.
13:59By mistake.
14:01By mistake.
14:02Yeah, of course.
14:03You knew how that makes sense.
14:05But it's okay.
14:05But it's okay.
14:06This place is great.
14:08Like, Jeonju is beautiful.
14:09That's right.
14:10Yeah.
14:11Jeonju is really pretty.
14:19Ah...
14:24Is it because he was wearing different glasses?
14:28He looked like he didn't feel well.
14:31Oh.
14:32Oh.
14:33Oh.
14:34Ah.
14:36Ah.
14:37Ah.
14:39Why won't this work?
14:42Ah.
14:42Shouldn't I just throw them away?
14:46No, I shouldn't.
14:47I should give them back to him.
14:49Huh.
14:50The spare ones were in his prescription.
14:53Ah.
14:54Good.
14:55Come on.
14:56We can do this.
14:57Type 1 verbs are basically most verbs that don't end in ru.
15:02For example, ikuro becomes ikanai because ku of the A-ro version is ka.
15:09Now, type 2 verbs are easier.
15:11You simply drop the ru.
15:13So then, it becomes ta-bi-nai.
15:18Type 3 verbs.
15:42Right in the middle of my class.
15:47You aren't even paying attention to me.
15:51I can't believe this.
16:05How are you feeling?
16:07I feel like I'm stuck watching a super-fast Mandelbrot.
16:10Zoom around and it won't stop.
16:13A man what?
16:14I feel dizzy.
16:19Ah.
16:21Okay.
16:27Come in.
16:37Mr. Kai, your student got caught doing your homework during my Japanese class.
16:43She is all yours now.
16:54Read it now.
16:56Excuse me?
16:58Uh, will you just read it quietly alone?
17:01There are other teachers here.
17:13Dear Mr. Euclid.
17:15I can't hear you.
17:19Greetings.
17:23My name is Yoiju and I am an 18-year-old girl from Jonju in the year 2026.
17:36Back in 7th grade, I faced public embarrassment because of a math-proofs question during my math class.
17:43The trauma from that day led me to give up on math entirely.
17:49Why were you so obsessed with those things, sir?
17:53Is something truly useless if it cannot be proven?
17:56I wonder, had I been born before you, would I have been spared such persecution?
18:04It's a reflection, not a protest letter.
18:10However, the opening line of your book,
18:13A Point is That Which Has No Part, struck me with true admiration, sir.
18:20Even a math-hater like me could understand it right away.
18:24Therefore, I am awfully sorry that my ignorance disappointed you,
18:30and I deeply regret my lack of understanding in math.
18:34That's all I wrote so far.
18:36Two demerit points for writing it during class.
18:39Ah!
18:40What?
18:41Is it unfair?
18:43No, sir.
18:46Looking out for a friend and showing empathy
18:48are among the most essential lessons a school should provide.
18:54You'll look out for Chia as of today.
18:56If she's late or absent, or if she ditches class or an assembly,
18:59she'll get two demerit points.
19:00Well, you'll get four points.
19:05What?
19:05Dismissed.
19:07You can't do that!
19:10Mr. Ka.
19:13That's unfair.
19:15Please, Mr. Ka.
19:19Jeez.
19:23Dang, that's actually ridiculous.
19:26He can't give you more demerit points than Chia Chia.
19:28Why is he always on Weiju's case, though?
19:31Is he just being a hater?
19:33Or maybe...
19:34He's into her!
19:37Could it be that you remind him of his ex-girlfriend?
19:40Maybe he wants to give Weiju a hard time
19:43because she reminds him of being dumped.
19:45Nah.
19:45What if your parents and Mr. Ka's parents
19:47are enemies or something, huh?
19:49Could be!
19:51Girls!
19:53Knock it off!
19:54Or maybe...
19:54He's just unhappy with how you look.
19:57That may be it.
19:59Hey!
20:02Let's try this.
20:06Hello, Mr. Ka!
20:09Where do we leave off?
20:11Mr. Ka, Weiju is feeling a little sick.
20:16How sick are you?
20:20Oh, I don't know, Mr. Ka.
20:22My head is spitting and I feel so nauseous.
20:26Oh, my goodness.
20:28Oh, dear.
20:30I don't know what to do.
20:32I can't stand this.
20:35I literally feel like dying.
20:38Oh!
20:39Oh!
20:43Oh!
20:44Oh!
20:48Yoiju.
20:50Yes.
20:52Explain the definition of the right and left hand limit.
20:55Oh!
21:11Even if both the left and right hand limits exist,
21:14without equal values,
21:16does the limit exist?
21:17Oh!
21:18If a point's detached from the graph,
21:20what kind of discontinuity is it?
21:23Which conditions prove that f of x is continuous at x equals a?
21:30We went over this during the last class, did we not?
21:34If you'd studied instead of faking illness,
21:36you would have known.
21:41What are you doing here?
21:42Are you ready to take that discreet math lecture?
21:48And cut!
21:56Juxian.
21:59Yes?
22:00I already mentioned this last time.
22:02Weren't you paying attention?
22:04The rest of you did a good job.
22:07So you can't read between the lines.
22:10Is that it?
22:12In this scene,
22:14you're supposed to feel jealous and angry
22:15at the sight of Yun and Taeha talking together,
22:18so your line should give a sense of superiority
22:20like Yun already decided
22:22to follow me,
22:24but you're far below my match.
22:26Don't you get it?
22:28That's what I just did.
22:32How dare you talk back to me?
22:38I'm a writer,
22:39and you're just a character
22:41in my novel.
22:42Get it?
22:43I'm a writer!
22:48I mean...
22:49You're a character in my novel.
22:53Listen,
22:53why must you always have it your way?
22:56Huh?
22:57Everything has meaning.
22:58Even a single punctuation mark
23:00in my lines matters!
23:02Now stop complaining,
23:04and just do as I say,
23:06okay?
23:06Yes, of course, ma'am.
23:09What are you huffing about?
23:17The basic concepts of functions.
23:20Write them ten times each.
23:22Yes, sir.
23:29Regretful Zhu Xi'an.
23:30Wait and see.
23:32I'm going to tumble you around
23:33until you can't tell which way is up.
23:35You'll literally be rolling.
23:38These are mini meat patties.
23:40Delicious!
23:41Is this pop?
23:42No, it's fish cutlet.
23:43Hey, Jenny,
23:44do you like the food here?
23:46It's delicious!
23:47Delicious, right?
23:48Mm-hmm.
23:48Don't get into it,
23:50or you'll gain weight.
23:52Eat up.
23:53It's all right.
23:55do you have a boyfriend?
23:56Mm-hmm.
24:00He's from Brazil.
24:01Brazil?
24:02Whoa.
24:03His name is Luis.
24:04You're totally global, huh?
24:07So hard, did you guys meet?
24:08We met at the Louvre in Paris.
24:10He's in college studying photography.
24:12He kept asking me to be his model,
24:14so we got together from then on.
24:18Then is he in France now?
24:20Uh-huh.
24:22I bet you miss him.
24:23Mm-hmm.
24:24I do,
24:25and he also says that without me,
24:27food only tastes half as good,
24:28and that he smiles half as often.
24:31Isn't that hilarious?
24:33Men from South America are different.
24:35What do you know?
24:36I know enough.
24:39Jenny,
24:39what did your boyfriend say
24:41when he asked you to be his model
24:42at the Louvre?
24:44Excuse me, miss.
24:46I spent all day chasing the perfect sunset,
24:50only to find something
24:52far more beautiful right here.
24:54Would it be okay with you
24:56if I captured this moment?
24:59Wow.
25:00How romantic is this thing?
25:35Okay, your medication for seven days.
25:37Make sure to take it after every meal.
25:39This is the anti-inflammatory,
25:41and this is for your stomach.
25:42All right.
25:43And also,
25:44these are the steroid eye drops,
25:46so make sure you shake them good
25:47before you put them in.
25:48That'll be 637, please.
25:52Your eyes are so bloodshot.
25:55Your glasses tell me
25:56that you haven't had LASIK.
25:57You should get new glasses soon.
25:59Eyes are very important, you know.
26:30You should get new glasses.
26:33Jeez, I'm sorry.
26:35It was totally like a scene
26:37from a comic book just now.
26:39You know,
26:39when they take off their glasses
26:41and poof,
26:41they just transform into a total hottie.
26:48You should really try getting contact lenses.
26:54Goodbye.
27:01Anime level.
27:04Anime level.
27:14Bring it back with your parents' signature.
27:16Yes, sir.
27:27What the?
27:28Is he sick or something?
27:32What did the doctor say?
27:35It takes at least two weeks
27:36to make new glasses.
27:38Two weeks?
27:39How are you going to hang in there?
27:45Good job.
27:49Oh.
27:51Come on.
27:52You're a great class, right?
27:53No way.
27:54Finally.
27:55Hey.
27:56I'm a bit tired.
27:57Come on.
27:57Tejia.
27:58Hey, Tejia.
27:59Where are you going?
28:00I need to stay.
