Call me when you arrive.

If you feel sick, call me right away.

Okay, Dad. I will.

Hi!

How is your new place?

I'm also moving to where I used to live.

I lived with my grandma there when I was young.

It's far from Seoul, so it'll take longer by mail.

I'm writing to give you

my new phone number and address.

TO JI-MIN

All the best in the new place.

For you...

And me.

YOUR LETTER

Grandma!

Welcome, dear!

It must've been hard for you to come so far.

I'm not sick like I was when I was young.

Right.

Let's go inside and have lunch.

Okay!

LEE SO-RI

Meet LEE So-ri. She moved here from Seoul.

So-ri, will you introduce yourself?

It was a very ordinary day.

Does it hurt?

How's that?

Please stop.

Stop what? Then why crawl out to class?

Answer me!

Please don't...

- Until I stopped staying put... - Come on!

Stop it!

What?

She said, "Stop!"

LEE So-ri.

Do you realize what you just did?

It only took 2 days for me

to become everyone's target.

Hi, Ji-min.

It's been a while.

How are you?

It's so hot this summer, isn't it?

So-ri...

Hmm?

I'm moving away.

Then what about me?

I almost said that.

Oh... That's good!

Why keep apologizing?

Take good care.

I'm fine. Don't worry.

When you get there, call me.

Ji-min must've felt the weight of my pause.

BACK TO SCHOOL

How pathetic.

I regretted it a bit.

I should've stayed still too.

But if I did, I would've regretted it more.

So-ri must be shy.

We'll get to know her slowly.

Snap to it. This is a new school.

It's the second semester

and school camp is coming up. Help her adjust.

Yes, sir!

We haven't changed seats yet.

So-ri, will you take the empty seat at the back?

Yes, sir.

- Run! We're late! - Wait up!

You're from Seoul?

Did you really used to live here?

Huh? Yes.

When did you move away?

In elementary school.

Do classes really start at 7 AM there?

No, not really.

Why'd you move back?

Well...

You don't have to say, if you don't want to.

Right. Don't worry.

She tends to ask stupid questions.

What? You said you're curious too!

Anyway, ask if you have any questions.

She's smarter than you. Why would she ask you?

What?

Our next class is on the field. See you later.

See ya!

Ready!

Come on!

Silly! Don't avoid the ball!

New girl!

The teacher told us to pair up and practice.

Okay. Thanks.

- Ready? - Okay!

Ji-min's letter?

Yes.

I made new friends already.

We eat together. They're all nice to me.

You too, Dad.

- Hey, did you do your homework? - Nope.

She's alone again.

She came from Han-wol Middle School, right?

I know that school.

It's a top school in Seoul.

Why'd she come back here?

I went to elementary school with her.

She had lots of friends then.

Really?

All she does is study now.

She's hard to approach.

Maybe we're below her level.

- What's for lunch today? - Curry rice!

Where did it all go wrong?

If I moved schools,

I thought it'd be all better.

Is it because I ran away?

Tissue paper...

A letter?

Why is this here?

Who sent this?

HELLO

"Hello".

Hello!

Welcome to our school.

I'm writing to tell you all about our school.

This is a map around the school.

LIBRARY Take #1 to go to the library.

SPORTS FIELD Take #2 for gym classes.

CAFETERIA To come in and out of school

or the cafeteria, #3 is the fastest.

These are the students in our class

and their names.

Huh?

The math teacher sometimes snores

during independent study time.

Then the class VP DJ's to it.

Quiet! Who was that?

The literature and health teachers are twins.

Kids say the health teacher is scarier.

PARK Do-dam! Don't run in the hallway!

- I think the opposite. - I'm sorry.

PENALTY POINTS

Ethics teacher hates insects

and keeps an insect-eating plant.

"Life is C between B and D."

She carries it around.

Understood?

Always.

P.S.

If you want to keep reading, find my second letter.

It's in 819.93HAK99.

819.93HAK99?

Oh!

819.93... HAK99...

Found it!

CHEONGRYANG MIDDLE SCHOOL WRITING COLLECTION

GRADE 8 WINNING POEM

Thanks for finding my second letter.

On the page, where I put the letter,

is my favorite poem.

I wonder if you like it, too.

I WONDER IF YOU LIKE IT, TOO

I wonder, too.

SHOOTING STAR BY PARK DONG-SOON

Who is this thoughtful person?

JUNG HO-YEON BORROWED ON 8/8

JUNG Ho-yeon?

Is this your name?

He's not in our class. Who is he?

These are the people who work at the school

and their names.

I was especially close

with Ms. KIM Soon-yi, the gardener.

She always smells like flowers

because she loves flower tea.

Bu-ha is her cat. He's always with her.

Here are some helpers outside of the school.

CHEONG-LI CHINESE FOOD SECRET HOLE

If you order before 12:25 here,

you can have noodles on the roof

before they get soggy.

"I recommend the duck dumplings and fried eggplant."

Excuse me! Over here!

I'll pick up the dishes here later.

Okay.

Next time, can you order the same dishes together?

Pardon?

I'll be in trouble, if the guard catches me.

Ah, okay.

CHEONG-LI CHINESE FOOD

Together?

Did someone else order too?

Oh!

Could it be him?
