Adolescence Medley (사춘기 메들리)

Before trying to interpret this poem

we must understand the era the poet lived in.

Class President!/- We can call that era

the Dark Ages of the arts

Hey, Class President.

Yang Ayeong.

Mr. Choi

Mr. Choi

Mr. Choi!/- Yes?

The bell rang. You want to keep sleeping?

N-N-No.

I'm going.

Class A. No, it's class B

Mr. Choi

Be careful today

The director is in a really bad mood today.

Why?/- All the kids are switching to

that new prep school across the street

Really?/- Yeah.

If I lose any more kids, it would be private tutoring.

Mr. Choi! Aren't you going?

l'm going.

Brilliant sadness. This is important. Three stars.

It's the paradox of the beauty in sadness

Got it?

Namil High

The winter trees and wind. The long-haired winds

hang at the tip of the branches like invisible laundry

and thus, the winds and trees are not alone.

They are not alone. Nobody is alone

It's nice.

I am not alone.

Even when I stand alone under the sky,

the sky is there with me.

It's quiet, and I know nobody.

Fine.

Jeongu, it's dangerous

Okay.

National Singing Contest in Namii

Tell Choi Jeongu to bring his family'information form

We will

Choi Jeongu?

The transfer student./- Oh.

His name is Choi Jeongu?

He's so inconspicious.

Hey, you pig! I said not to eat! You pig

Stop hitting me!

Based on my observations over the past few weeks,

the kids here are either overly hyped, or...

Jeongu,/- Yeah?

didn't you bring lunch?

unnecessarily friendly.

Want to go to the snack bar?

I thought you didn't bring lunch. Enjoy.

The only person who shows an interest

in this invisible man.

That's right. Did you study for the quiz?

I didn't study at all. What do I do?

I have to review it again. Let's look over it together

Okay!

The top student in school is nice, too.

Hey! Why don't you make some effort?

Stop leaching off of her.

Jeongu, want to come over later?

I told my mom we had a transfer student

and she said to have you over. She's a great cook.

Right?

She really is a great cook.

Hello./- Hey.

What are you doing later?

Going honie to eat? Life must be good

stuffing your face instead of making deliveries.

I was going to eat quickly.

What about me?

You don't care if I starve to death?

I'll go now./- Go

Wait

You've dropped something here.

It's your brain! Get moving, punk!

What was he eating?

Eggs and seaweed. All lame, just like him.

What's this?

Hold on

Hey.

He's new

Is he a transfer student?/- Yes

Hey, you. Look at me. Look at me

You got a problem with me, boy?

I need a new food delivery boy. Want to be it?

Look at me

What an idiot. He is so spiritless.

Stop stuffing your face

Say, "Ah." How much do you weigh?

Excuse me

What's with these losers?

What are you looking at?

What are your problems, punks?

Hey, just ignore him.

The guys should take care of thernselves.

Pretend not to see, hear, or notice.

Don't make friends nor enemies.

I learned after transferring seven times

that .it's easier if I don't get involved

The exam schedule has been set. They begin on Thursday

Silence! Remember, your grades follow you

until you graduate.

And the National Singing Contest is coming to our town.

Who's the guest singer?/- Is SHINHWA coming7

They're screaming, "This is a countryside town!"

Silence!

The county office asked each school to send a team

So the teachers drew straws

And our class won!

What?/- No way!

Hey, you do it. Can't you sing?

Ignore him./- Are you ignoring me?

Ignore him

Hey! These will all be precious memories

You can't do these, once you become a junior.

Class President put together a team by tomorrow.

I will

Attention!

Choi Jeongu. Choi Jeongu?

Yes?

Are you getting adjusted?

It must've been crazy since the semester just started.

Yes

Okay. If you have any question, come see me

Before I have my baby.

I will

That's all. Class President?

Attention! Bow.

Goodbye.

Who cares about the National Singing Contest?

It's not even Golden Bell, the quiz show./- Hey.

It's not like you'd go on Golden Bell, like she would

I need to leave this town.

Choi Jeongu!

It's your turn.

These are the bed sheets for the nurse's office

It's our class' turn to wash them

Wash them and give them to the nurse

Thanks.

Bye.

Do you know the TV show "Real or Fake?"

Sell this to the host of that show, got it?

Okay?/- Okay.

Take it out!

Give it to me.

Are you going to use that in the bathroom? Punk

Hold on. Doesn't he sit next to you in class?

Right? Even he ignores you, too?

You're such a loser

I feel sorry for you. Here, buy yourself some candy

What's his deal?

You get this taken away already? Loser

He's a transfer student and is as big a loser as he is.

Why is it so cold?

I'm back..

Hey./- Hi

What is that?

Homework

Honey!

You'll hurt your teeth

What are you doing?

Jeongu, we're moving to Seoul! Seoul!

I got a promotion

But I got transferred to Seoul

They wouldn't do it when I asked

Seoul! We're finally going to Seoul!

Dad's been to every power plant in the country

So we've been pretty much everywhere, thanks to him

But finally..

Seoul, Seoul, Seoul

She started packing as soon as she heard "Seoul."

Of course! Look at the freckles under my eye.

I'm going to get rid of them when we get there.

Not everything is good in Seoul.

It's competitive and polluted.

Maybe you should stay, and let him study here.

Don't be ridiculous.

How can I live apart from you?

It's not like we have problems in the bedroom

Then..

I have to transfer, again?

I'm used to it. It's not the first time

This is from Chunchu Middle School.

This is from Shinil Middle School

This is from Sanghae High School.

Do you think he can transfer okay?
