Nine years ago, Kang Bok Soo
had to leave school unfairly without having done anything wrong.
Even so, he returned to school.
He didn't mind putting himself in danger
in order to reveal to the world how rotten and corrupt this school is.
Although I...
I am a person who has committed a shameful sin,
my feelings of love for Kang Bok Soo...
are honorable.
The traces of overseas accounts for promotion outside of organization
Please make sure to deliver this to Bok Soo.
I don't think he'll accept it if it's from me.
You must give it to Bok Soo—
No, no.
You do it yourself.
You must. Don't run away anymore. Okay?
Hey, jerk. Where do you think this is for you to come?
Leave. Okay? Leave.
CEO, don't use violence. You never know what kind of crazy charge this bastard is going to press against you.
Hey! You're dead if you mess with my CEO.
I came because I have a favor to ask of Kang Bok Soo.
The CEO is me and I won't accept a favor from a jerk like you. Get out.
Hey, Oh Se Ho.
Follow me.
Hey. Why did you come here?
Did you come to ask a favor?
I'm sorry but I can't listen to your favor of not messing with
your mother, your school, and you.
It's not a favor.
No. Maybe it's a favor?
While I was living with my uncle in America,
I found out that my mother was pocketing money under my uncle's name.
As you can see, she won't be able to get away from her sin by cutting a tail with this evidence.
Why are you giving this to me? Don't you just have to reveal this yourself?
I'm not qualified.
Even without this, there is plenty of evidence for the hearing.
And how can I trust you in accepting this?
- Kang Bok Soo - This could be your trap as well.
This time, you can trust me.
How can I trust a jerk like you?!
How can you even ask me trust you
after what you did to me!?
Like you said, I'm trying to not run away
and to live differently. For the first time
I'm having courage.
Is it true that you were the very victim of Kang Bok Soo's crime?
Yes, I am
the victim of the crime that Kang Bok Soo committed nine years ago.
And the truth that I am revealing today...
is that I am not the victim but instead the assailant.
Not a victim but an assailant?
Nine years ago, by the misunderstanding
that Kang Bok Soo pushed me off the rooftop, he was expelled from the school.
But I
fell off from the rooftop by myself.
Then how did people come to misunderstand Kang Bok Soo like that?
It's because I lied that Kang Bok Soo pushed me off.
Then, why did you lie about such a thing?
I don't think the reason is important.
Whatever the reason is, I can't justify my actions.
The important thing is
that because of my lies, Kang Bok Soo
got kicked out of school nine years ago and even today
is swept up in many misunderstandings and rumors.
Although it's late,
I am finally confessing the truth.
I request of you reporters,
to spread the truth to many people.
I sincerely apologize to Kang Bok Soo
who has suffered
from my lies.
In order to take revenge,
I came to school.
However that revenge
is not simply personal revenge against
Director Im Se Gyeong and Director Oh Se Ho
who kicked me out of school nine years ago.
In the past, with a fabrication and power
the school has stepped on me.
Right now, Seolsong High's kids are
being discriminated against under a wrong school system
and treated as a means of earning profit for the school.
Meanwhile, they are losing their dreams and hopes.
As long as Director Im Se Gyeong is in this school,
there will be endless victims
like myself and current Seolsong High students.
Never again.
I will prevent kids from being unfairly treated,
changing the school like that.
That
is the real revenge that I must take.
Ah, Teacher Park! That person!
I told that geezer to go and farm in the country.
How could he be in that (high) position?
Oh, my neck. I feel pain.
Isn't Teacher Son crazy?
How is she planning to see the kids' faces that she's appearing in such a place?
Don't you think she's just resigning?
It's a resolved face.
Bok Soo sure is cool as I expected.
He hasn't changed at all. He's still the same as back then.
What do you mean cool?
Because of that one person, Kang Bok Soo, the school is a mess right now.
It's not because of Kang Bok Soo that the school has turned out like this.
He's just revealing what the school was originally like.
Let's acknowledge what we have to acknowledge.
I devoted my whole life to education.
My passion and sincerity
were condemned cruelly.
This is...
so unfair and my heart hurts.
I will fight till the end.
I will for sure
reveal the truth.
Oh! It's Kang Bok Soo!
Please keep in line.
Did you know that Seolsong High's ex-director Oh Se Ho
revealed that he is the assailant in your incident nine years ago?
What did you say?
He has revealed that you did not push him and that he himself jumped off. He said he was sorry to you.
How do you feel?
Great job.
- Teacher. - Hm?
Are you really going to be like this?
I got a chill when I saw you.
It was Teacher Park's big picture.
Don't be too surprised yet.
What's this? You already knew?
But you didn't tell the CEO?
Attention. Let's toast together.
- Who will give a word? - The teacher who made a comeback.
You do it, Teacher.
Ah, no. Today's hero is Bok Soo.
Let's just have anybody do it and drink.
Okay. Then, after Teacher Park, I will say something.
Okay. Then I...
For the infinite prosperity of this restaurant—
Hey, hey. Nothing like that.
Today is a very special day.
So something truthful and selfish, please.
Is that so? Then...
To celebrate
my second life.
Cheers!
What is he saying?
Bok Soo's turn now.
Well, you all went through
thick and thin with me for a while, my family, friends,
Teacher Park,
and my girlfriend.
From now on, let's all be happy.
Alright! Let's all be happy!
Let's all be happy!
Hurray!
Congressman, I'm so disappointed in you.
You ate up all that money, so you should be able to at least take care of something like this!
Who cares if the controversy gets bigger over private school law or not!
You should prevent my imprisonment first!
Who the hell is Kang Bok Soo to make you do this to me?!
He's the one who treated me with warmth for the first time in my life.
You crazy little punk. Only for that reason?
When you ordered me to answer that Kang Bok Soo pushed me off nine years ago,
I shouldn't have done that.
Kang Bok Soo was the one who pushed you off of there, right?
I should've testified then that I wanted to die because of you.
It's driving me crazy that I didn't do that.
I was a little puppy that wanted to be loved so much.
"It was because of Kang Bok Soo."
I made a pledge to myself saying that I wanted to die because of Kang Bok Soo.
I ended up just hating and bullying the wrong person instead.
The thing that I should truly hate and detest is you, after all.
Then leave.
Out of my house immediately.
Okay.
Like I am not your child,
I no longer have a mother either.
I requested to close down Seolsong High School.
Hey! Don't do that! If you do that, you'll get arrested.
I came up here every time I was truly frustrated about something and screamed at the top of my lungs like this.
Nobody came after me though.
I feel like whatever has been tugging at me for a long time is finally released tonight.
I'm still relieved though.
I know it's late but I was still able to set things straight in the end.
I wonder what Oh Se Ho is really thinking though.
He probably regrets what he did nine years ago?
Just like what I did in the past.
I think that woman, Im Se Gyeong is the one who really screwed everything up.
I seriously can't believe that she was a mother and an educator on top of that.
She seriously needs to be punished for what she did.
Bok Soo.
You were so cool today.
You really did a good job.
You were the one who did really well.
The thing that you did the very best was this.
- "Yes, I do really love Kang Bok Soo." - Hey!
You want to die? Don't copy me.
- Soo Jeong. - Huh?
I love you too.
I know. I can just feel it by looking into your eyes.
Cheer up, no matter what happens tomorrow.
You really did do the right thing. I'm so proud of you.
Bok Soo, I was able to find my dream because of you so let's go find yours now.
But my dream is to just become Son Soo Jeong's boyfriend though.
But that dream already came true though.
Okay, let's do that.
Honey, take a look at this.
Seolsong High School's 300 million won slush fund?
This is the news about Seolsong High School, which caused the worst school scandal in history.
The public hearing was conducted by the educational board due to the accusation from the returning student Kang Bok Soo.
During that, it has been reveealed that 300 million of the Seolsong High's slush fund
was used as the construction fund for building Seolsong University.
And this is becoming a big controversy.
Director Im Se Gyeong of Seolsong High School has been pointed out as the main culprit of the scandal.
And starting today, she will be summoned for an investigation by the prosecution for this case.
Director Im has transferred the funds to her foreign account overseas
to purchase the property for Seolsong University, and this is what she is getting charged for.
The true owner of that land is Nicholas Im, and his Korean name is Im Tae Hoon.
It's also revealed that he is the blood-related brother of Director Im.
Stay back. We are from the prosecutors office.
We are with the prosecutors office.
We will proceed with the search and seizure.
Go for it.
We are from the prosecutors office.
Everyone, please take your hands off of everything.
The director isn't here and neither is the principal.
Then does that mean I'm the one with superiority here?
Oh my.
Everyone, please don't be flustered.
I'm here as the qualified superintendent of education for being the member of the committee.
I'll be managing and supervising everything regarding Seolsong High from now on.
Huh?
But I already—
I knew it from the start!
I knew that Teacher Park would be doing something great someday!
Welcome, sir! Welcome aboard!
I'm so glad to see you again, sir!
You looked really great on TV too.
Yay!
Kang Bok Soo! Kang Bok Soo!
Kang Bok Soo!
Hey, hey, hey!
You are famous, Elder. I need to brag about it.
Look over here, please.
Hey, get in line dammit!
Hey, get out of the way.
Is it true about God Soo Jeong?
It's not true what was being said at the public hearing yesterday, right?
I knew something was up when I watched the whistle-blower thing in the video on the internet.
Wouldn't a teacher be fired for carelessly saying stuff like that?
How are we supposed to see our teacher now?
We will be start the assembly through broadcasting.
Students from each class, please turn on your TV.
Let's go.
Hello everyone. My name is Park Dong Joon and
I'm a committee member who has been reinstated as the qualified superintendent of education.
Students of Seolsong High, all kinds of things that have been going on within the school have caused
you to feel insecure about things, which I do understand.
The lake water that's not flowing but instead gathered up might look clean on the surface
but inside, there can be all kinds of dirty materials.
Wow, Teacher Park looks really nice on the TV screen.
He has rejuvenated indeed.
Hey, let's hear him out.
When you flip the floor and clean it, it might become rather dirty temporarily,
but if you avoid cleaning because you are scared of that
then you'll never be able to have a clean environment.
All the things that you're experiencing here at Seolsong High School are the things that I just mentioned.
So students, please don't play along with all the fuss that's going on in the school.
But instead, goof off like you normally would like any other times. Play and have a good time as usual.
Play hooky from time to time. And when the time comes, do some studying too.
So please live like you used to.
Fight on, Seolsong High!
Let's go!
Fight on!
He looks better on TV than expected.
Kids, do you remember we were going to do a self-introduction?
I thinking about doing my own today.
I am a corrupted teacher.
I never thought I'd introduce myself like this.
I had no dream and did nothing but study.
But a friend of mine helped me find a dream to be a teacher.
I shouldn't have done it if I thought about him.
But because I really wanted to become a teacher...
No because I wanted to become a full-time teacher, I paid for it.
And now, in order to take responsibility for that shameful action,
I am planning to let go of my teaching position.
Kids.
You do know that you're such great kids who raised the class average to over 50 points by studying really hard.
You guys gave me courage.
That I can do anything if I put my mind to it.
So... do it. Anything. Like now, just do it.
Although I'm leaving this school, let's just remember this one thing:
You guys are all flowers.
Whether you bloom on a mountain or in a field, you're all flowers.
Even when you are nameless like a bridal wreath or bush clover, you're still flowers.
It's a flower even if it blooms fast or if it blooms late.
It's a flower even if it blooms in the daytime or during the dark night.
As you live, there will be many times where you're discouraged.
Every time that happens, let's remember this one thing.
You guys... are all flowers.
A wildflower that blooms again even if stepped on once.
You're not the only one living in the world, Teacher Soo Jeong.
Being a social person is about compromising,
even if you don't like how things are.
But you just had to... Ah, really.
Is it because she's young?
Do you think it's because we don't have a conscience or something?
We know everything but for the sake of the organization,
for the sake of the whole instead of the individual...
I'm telling you this as a life senior. If you keep living like that, you'll break.
Don't you know that those individuals consist of a group?
"Just accept it as it is and compromise."
"Shut your mouth and live quietly. You can move past it if you ignore it."
Are you going to teach your kids that?
I'd rather be broken than become a teacher like that.
You teachers can keep living all bent up!
Slouchy and bent. In a very shabby style.
Counseling Room
They're saying such obvious things.
I had so many worries about my future, but you helped me a lot. Thank you.
You've suffered a lot during all this time.
I did. An awful lot.
Maybe that's why I feel like these times will remain in my memories for a long time.
Did you think about what you're going to do now?
I've been working really hard in career counselling the kids all this time,
but what should I do about mine?
Teacher, could you career counsel me?
No way. You're an adult now so you figure it out yourself.
Teach, I need encouragement and compliments since I am going to be unemployed from now.
What's wrong with being unemployed? The person who's first place in your life is you.
That's true.
I did come from being the school's first place.
Everything will turn out well.
♫ The breeze that passed ♫
♫ by last winter ♫
What are you doing? Are you guys sending me off now?
Well, to encourage the unemployed?
Teacher, I'm jealous. You don't have to come to school tomorrow.
Then do you want to pack up your bags right now?
Yeah, we'll pack your bags up.
Teacher, what are you going to do now?
Then does that mean you can openly date Bok Soo now?
I'm a little jealous about that.
If you break up with Elder, come to me. I'll accept you.
Yoon Seung Woo, I'm not interested in younger guys.
You can't go to the Han River out of desperation or something.
I want to live for a long time.
There are so many delicious things in this world. I won't die before I get to eat them all.
I won't die.
Auntie.
- Sh! - Hey!
You guys know that God Soo Jeong is my aunt, right?
I'll see you at home.
Let's go, Son Soo Jeong.
Don't you know that we're at school?
I know. All the kids know.
Let's go.
♫ Love keeps entering me ♫
♫ Stay with me like this ♫
Teacher!
You're also a flower!
♫ you’ll never leave me ♫
God Soo Jeong
♫ My love ♫
♫ Love keeps entering me ♫
♫ Stay with me like this ♫
♫ Will you promise me ♫
♫ That you’ll never leave me, my love ♫
