Chapter 29

029 My House (3)

[Hello. He is the new representative of Seoyul University’s Department of Korean Language Education. I’m trying to get together once before entering school, can you come to Hooxy?]

what?

It was a text message from an unknown number, but the tone was strange.

‘Do college students send text messages like this these days? Why do you look so young?’

I think it’s different from when I was in college. Oh, did I become an idiot?

‘Apart from that. It seems a little strange, but…’

It’s only mid-January, but are we already meeting? There are a lot of universities that have not yet announced their due dates. Originally, it is said that the university’s acceptance announcement will be made in early to mid-January at the earliest, or by February at the latest, but…

‘But you have to be careful in this season.’

Not just me, but the real newbies.

This is the season when hyenas are everywhere trying to prey on innocent 20-year-olds who have just come out into the world.

So, newbies should be as careful as possible.

And, well, I have no intention of going anyway. As I am not a newbie on active duty who knows nothing and I have already suffered enough to go through, there is no need to go to an event for newbies.

‘I’m writing my college application at this age… so am I a full-time newbie?’

Thinking about it somehow makes me laugh. As I was thinking about college, I remember chasing after school events harder than anyone else in college.

Without realizing it, a smile crept onto my lips. Until just a few months ago, whenever I thought about my college days, regrets came out before laughter.

“Sam what are you doing?

I put my phone in and look straight ahead. In front of me are Park Soo-han, who is solving problems, and Kim, Yun-a, who is looking at me and shining.

It seems that her guy has solved all of her own problems, and she spreads her textbooks as if to purify them. Looking at her smirk and smiling face, she seems to want something complimented, but too much praise for such a trifle backfires later.

“I don’t know.”

I shake her head as I speak, and the guy pops out her mouth dissatisfied.

Then she opens her mouth with a suspicious look.

“Do you have a girlfriend?”

The guy spits out nonsense and starts to grunt.

“Ah, shouldn’t we be doing something special like that in a sacred class? I think someone will break their head just trying to solve a problem.”

I smiled and patted the boy’s head. Then the guy wraps his head around and overdos it.

“Ah! Violent Teacher! It’s really too much.”

Park Soo-han, who was solving the problem, opened her eyes wide and looked between me and Kim Yuna.

He didn’t know what was going on to solve the problem.

“Don’t say nonsense and check again to see if anything is wrong. If you don’t know something, check it out. Is there anything stopping Suhan?”

As he spoke, he approached Park Soo-han.

She heard Yuna Kim huh, chump behind her back, but she just laughed at her.”Ah. You can solve everything, sir, but I’m a little confused about the requirements? No, it’s not that I can’t solve it, it’s just a little, a little bit confusing?”

Boy, trembling hands, what do you say?

Drops of sweat from Park Soo-han’s forehead were hanging from his spectacles.

“Yeah, what’s the matter that confuses me so little?”

As I talk with a smirk, he points to one problem.

25. Which of the following statements is most appropriate for (A), (B), and (C)?

Marketing’s impact on individual consumer welfare has been criticized for its high prices, deceptive practices, and poor service to disadvantaged consumers. Marketing’s impact on society has been criticized for creating false wants and too much materialism, too (A)[many/few] social goods, and cultural pollution···

“This one.”

I carefully read the passage of the question he was pointing at.

“Let’s see, this passage as a whole is about the harm that marketing does to society, isn’t it? Basically, it is an article based on negative information and judgment about the central subject.”

The guy nodded his head.

“Think about it, what word should come before social goods in the axiomatic sense? Positive? denial? maybe in denial? So what should be in it?”

When I ask, he opens his mouth with a confident expression.

“Ah, so of course it’s ‘Few’.”

I smiled.

Then the guy’s shoulders go up.

If you look closely, this guy is really naive.

“Yeah, that’s right. First of all, as I said in Korean class, it is important to understand the context of any text, so keep in mind that you need to practice reading this context consistently.”

Hearing my words, Park Soo-han nodded vigorously and began to focus on the problem.

But then.

“Sam me too! Quickly!”

I turned around and saw Yuna Kim waving her hand with an innocent expression. Seeing that he is pointing at one side of the textbook, he argues that he has all the problems he is not aware of.

As she slowly approaches the guy, the guy who can’t stand it is calling for a quick notice.

However.

No matter how you look at it, the problem is too easy.

A problem that Kim Yuna, who left the 20th Corps, could solve enough.

It was suspicious enough.



But you can’t ignore students who ask questions. It simply interprets the passage and gives clues enough to help him check the answer.

“Um, oh, ah! Yes! Sam! I think I know now.”

Every time I point out the context of her problem, she throws an awkward reaction, but as soon as she finishes her commentary, she immediately finds her answer and checks it out. She then stands and she looks up at me, and her eyes are shining.

“·················ogue.”

No matter how you look at it, it was clear that he was asking a question he knew.

Hmm, I can’t wait to see more of this.

right!

And sparks shoot from Yuna Kim’s forehead.

“Ahh! Sam!”

are you sick I’m sick too. It’s so sad to have to be in love with a student and hit him.

Oh hey, it’s called Eup Yam.

* * *

smart-

“How is Kim’s class? Are there any inconveniences?”

When I turned around at the sound of the knock, I saw the manager with a kind expression on his face.

I greeted him and told him that thanks to him, the class was going on without much concern.

He smiled softly and opened his mouth.

“It’s all a teacher’s blessing. Well, if you are ready for class, would you like to have a cup of tea?”

As I nodded, he walked towards the director’s room.

Looking at the back of him walking around while wearing an improved hanbok, I thought that it was like a Goddess walking on clouds.

With neatly organized white hair, and a smile that seems to have cast off greed in the world. Until the footsteps that seem to flow.

The atmosphere he felt from the old monk on the verge of liberation was flowing around him.

widely-

manager’s office.

A sweet scent wafted through the room.

And in front of me, there is a director who drinks cocoa that is too thick to burn.

The director who puts a happy expression on the world every time he takes a sip.

Looking at him, I once again engraved deep into my heart how dangerous it is to judge a person’s taste by appearance.

Just by looking at the appearance, we put all our heart into drinking green tea, but the taste is instant cocoa mix.

While I was quietly drinking my share of green tea, the director, who was inhaling cocoa, put down the glass and opened his mouth.

“I don’t know if it will suit your taste. My taste is so old that I don’t buy other cars…”

He looked at me drinking tea and asked. His eyes filled with a little concern.

“Fine. Because I like this too.”

I answered briefly, and took a sip of tea.

Tea bags in paper cups were also perfect for academy.

Sometimes, for long classes, I brought a tumbler with me, but for classes that last for around an hour or so, a cup of green tea in a tea bag was enough.

The taste of tea that I sip every time my throat hurts from talking so much was something I couldn’t feel except at the academy.”That’s fortunate. There are hardly any customers these days, so I was worried because I only bought things that suited me and my children.”

The director smiled softly and drank the remaining cocoa from the glass at once. He then put down the paper cup he had finished drinking and opened his mouth.

“Teacher. I don’t know if you’ve heard from Jisung, but actually, I’ve been thinking about retiring for a long time.”

I nodded. It was because he had already heard from Jisung hyung what he said.

“Yes. But I heard that you couldn’t do it yet because of the requests of those who taught you.”

But he smiled softly at my words and shook his head.

“no. That’s what Jisung is trying to wrap me up well, and in fact, I’m not able to do it because of my greed.”

greed? He spit out a story that didn’t make sense. As I looked at him with curious eyes, he opened his mouth.

“Look at this school. How is it?”

The director looked around and said.

Academy. It is unusually large compared to the number of students currently attending, large enough to accommodate nearly a hundred students in its prime.

It was a place where there were traces of meticulous care so that you could not see the smell of an old school or a single faulty part.

“Well, it’s big and spacious. Also, the interior is neat and tidy, and the equipment is meticulously organized… If you have teachers right away, you will soon be full of students.”

I said what I felt. Then he looked satisfied.

“thank you. Actually, when I first started here, it was less than half of this place, but when I came to my senses, I realized it. It has become this wide all of a sudden.”

The director looked into the distance over my shoulder as if recalling his youth.

His bright eyes dimmed, and a small sigh escaped his mouth.

“But the problem is that I am getting old. Body, mind and spirit.”

The expression on his face as he spoke slowly and chewed it seemed very depressed.

“For people who still have a lot of work to do, time is really wild. Maybe that’s why. I still can’t get out of this academy.”

The headmaster continued his words like a guru right before the start.

“I was watching the main character (周易) these days, and without realizing it, my tone has become outdated.”

The director sighed briefly as he said this. But after a while, he continues the conversation with an awkward smile.

“You must have been embarrassed when I suddenly brought up this story. But there was something I really wanted to ask the teacher, so this old man had no choice but to complain.”

I couldn’t help but wonder. As soon as I heard him, the first thought came to me, ‘Is he really going to ask me anything?’

In addition to this shopping mall, is there anything a wealthy person who owns several buildings around can ask a person who rents out his private academy, and even only a part of it, not the whole?

“What kind of request are you talking about?”

He answered my questions carefully.

“You don’t have to be too vigilant. This is actually more of a suggestion than a request.”

The manager puts on a slightly serious expression.

“Actually, it is a proposal that has never been made to anyone before. Because I never even brought this up to Jisung.”

He hesitated for a moment as to what he was going to say. He looked worried for a moment, and then opened his mouth.

“Mr. Kim. Aren’t you thinking of taking over a school?”
