Episode 11

Jo Bang Wool...

Are you... Jo Kang Ja?

Bok Dong!

Are you alright?

Even the homeroom teacher has come.

The school is running so well.

Ajumma roams around wearing a school uniform.

A teacher who graduated from a prestigious university

is being played by this kind of ajumma.

Don't touch my student!

My student?

I'm telling you that she's an ajumma. A child's mother.

Right now, she's my student.

Get up, Bok Dong.

Don't move an inch, Go Bok Dong.

Let's go to the hospital first. You can stand up, right?

I already told you not to move an inch, Go Bok Dong.

Mr. Ahn Dong Chil. I can report you right now for assaulting a minor.

Go ahead and report it. See if it makes any difference.

Just because I hit my younger brother a few times,

will they arrest me or him?

His legal guardian is me.

Is this being a guardian?

From this moment on, I will be protecting this child.

As a mere teacher, you are going over the line.

Go Bok Dong, tell me.

Up until now, who has clothed you, given you a place to sleep and sent you to school?

Who has it been?

What you did was not guarding, but breeding.

Ahn Dong Chil, you don't have any right to be a guardian.

The law will decide on my qualification.

His legal guardian is me.

I've been legally delegated by his brother.

I won't let Bok Dong become like Beom. I will protect him.

Let's go outside, Go Bok Dong.

There's no need to listen to the words of a guy like him.

You need to get out of here.

DON'T MOVE, GO BOK DONG!

Do you want to die?!

I also want to live now...

What?

For feeding me, clothing me, sending me to school

and protecting me all this time, thank you.

Let's go.

So...

Jo Bang Wool, you're... not 19 years old, but 34 years old...

Ah Ran is your...

No...Jo Kang Ja's daughter?

Just call me Bang Wool, please.

How can you do such a ridiculous thing... Ma'am?

Teacher, if your daughter was beaten and her entire body was covered with bruises

and even had to get psychiatric treatment, would you be able to just sit still?

Even so, how can a mother wear a uniform and attend school?

You should have informed the school. Why do you think there is an anti-violence committee? You should have followed the school rule.

You saw how it was. It doesn't just involve one or two people. It won't be resolved with school regulations.

Even teachers were all trying to cover them up. Office of Education and police just kept asking for evidence.

I came to find the evidence. But as I've searched for the evidence--

Anyway...this is absolutely ridiculous.

Before the problem becomes any bigger, hurry and drop out of school.

-I won't drop out! - Ms. Jo Kang Ja!

I will protect my daughter because I'm her mother.

Bok Dong...

Mother? You're an ajumma?!

-No, Bok Dong..that's- -Was it fun toying with me?

No. That's well-

Aish! Really!

-Bok Dong! -Bok Dong!

Anyway, you...let's talk again later...Ma'am.

You were caught by your homeroom teacher as well?

Yes...

Aigoo...what to do...

Your husband, mother-in-law, Dong Chil, and now even your homeroom teacher!

-There's one more person. -Who?

Bok Dong...

Even Bok Dong?! There are so many people who know now!

How are you going to block all of them?

The one I'm most concerned about is Dong Chil.

If I don't withdraw from school, he will go find Ah Ran.

Dong Chil is someone who will cause a huge ruckus, whether it's his bloodline or not.

He did that to his one and only younger brother too.

Now that it's turned out this way, I need to transfer Ah Ran even if I have to force her.

I need to resolve the Myeong Seong High School problem as soon as possible and then withdraw.

Are there any good methods?

Actually...there's one method that I thought of.

Then...are you saying it's possible that Jo Kang Ja wasn't the one that killed him?

That's what I think.

The truth is only known by the two people who were at the scene.

In that case...isn't it possible that Jo Kang Ja might have received unfair punishment?

Either way, it had been verified that the knife from the scene belonged to Jo Kang Ja,

and the testimony of the witness was precise.

On the other hand, maybe because she couldn't remember that incident clearly,

Kang Ja didn't say a word in her own defense.

When you experience such a horrific incident at that age,

it's easy to fall into self-blame mode with panic.

Why do you stupidly take the blame for another's crime?

What a difficult thing that is.

In the end, I had to sentence her under Juvenile Disposition Section 10.

Then...Jo Kang Ja's child is...

How did you know that Kang Ja had a child?

He's a student from my class. Sorry, Father, I should have told you in advance.

But Bok Dong needs a place to stay in temporarily.

I will leave very quickly...after I make some money.

Just think of it as your house...and stay comfortably.

How could I have liked ajumma?

Isn't Jo Bang Wool crazy?! How can she be an ajumma? Why did she do that to us?

Why are you so worked up?

How could I not be worked up?

Jo Bang Wool, that girl, made us all into fools.

Anyway, she's an adult, not a girl.

She is 7 years older than me.

Go Bok Dong, don't think about earning money and leaving.

From now on, just continue to stay here at my house.

I will apply to be your foster parent.

Forget it. Who wants to be in the house of a homeroom teacher...

Let's settle this by you withdrawing quietly.

I will transfer Ah Ran first, then talk to you about this again.

You will be in big trouble if you get caught.

From false admission to document fabrication!

At that time, I wouldn't be able to protect you either, Ms. Jo Kang Ja.

Did I ask you to protect me?

I just have to protect my daughter.

I'm saying that I will be responsible for Ah Ran!

Just pretend you don't know anything!

How can I pretend to not know something when I already know it!

You can just close your eyes..and pretend you don't know!

Jo Bang Wool!

I mean, Ms. Jo Kang Ja. I am a teacher.

Falsifying one's identity is a fraud and is definitely against school regulations.

School regulation?

I don't know about things like that. What I do know is that, in this school, there is a monster targeting my daughter.

And, that monster

seems to be preying on all the other kids here.

Just what are you...

Hey!

That over there... get rid of it and open it up!

Put a brand new sports facility right here.

Make it noticeable at first sight when parents come by to see it.

Yes, Chairman.

The place over there was built for the purpose of using it as a classroom.

As for that wall, it is to withstand the load of the building-

Who picked him?

-Oh...umm... -Can't we just request a change on the blueprint, Director Oh?

As for the building load, we can reinforce it with a H-Beam.

Ah y-yes...I think that will do it.

The material costs are so high that I will have to give them all the money I have in my pocket!

- Isn't there a way to lower it more? - I'll look for a way.

I will set things right for the diseased group of people.

A school that does not have school violence. We will make a safe school.

A world where our children can be happy.

A country where adults can work in peace.

The Republic of Korea with a bright future.

This, Kang Soo Chan, will make a world like that.

Kang Soo Chan, former Minister of Education, officially entered the Presidential race today.

Even before he entered the race, Candidate Kang Soo Chan received high approval ratings for being the most respected politician.

In this press conference room, there is much excitement and approval from the supporters.

Minister! Minister! Please shake my hand! I'm your fan!

Please make a good school! Please make a good school!

Minister! I'm a fan of yours! Minister!

Omo! I'm really very sorry.

Is this ajumma out of her mind or what? You can be sued for this!

It's because I'm a fan that just loves the Minister so much!

Be careful, Ajumma!

You're the one that should be careful while walking at night.

Everything is almost done here as well.

Got the item!

Brother!

This brat, what's wrong with your face? Did you fight with someone? Did you get beat up?

-That's not it! Just with some kid- -Who beat you?

-Who the heck beat up my brother like this? -I'm telling you that I didn't get beat up...

Yeah, right! I just need a name. I will call Dong Chil Hyungnim right now and

-that guy- -Brother!

I...

came out from Dong Chil Hyungnim's house.

Why? Did you get scolded by Dong Chil Hyungnim?

-N-no..that's no- - How can you leave the house just because of that?

Hey, even though Dong Chil Hyungnim's personality isn't that great,

there are no other guardians like him for people like us!

The case that came out in the news,

you wouldn't have gotten away so easily without Dong Chil Hyungnim's help.

Do you know or not, you idiot?

Did something really happen?

Then why are you crying? I told you that a boy shouldn't cry like an idiot!

I'm not crying.

What about you?

Is your health okay? You're eating all your meals well, right?

I know you don't like rice with beans because you're picky, but make sure to eat it all!

It's not rice with beans. They give plain rice these days. ("eating rice with beans" is an idiom for "going to jail" as it was served to inmates in the past.)

Is that so?

I didn't know because I haven't gone to jail yet.

It would be a problem if you came! You punk...

Look at him smile.

Just beg to Dong Chil Hyungnim and go back to him.

Just bear with it and wait a short while until I can get out.

Don't get out of his sight, don't make any troubles, and listen to him!
