“This is awkward.... ”
Lee Hyuk gave a subtle look, looking down at his clothes.
I felt like I was in a training suit all the time and had a strange body as well. I feel awkward every time I shrug my shoulders.
I challenged her to wear something else, but I was forced to kneel down in front of the rear Smash and Yi Ye-won's nagging.
A little more nagging and you might get blood in your ears.
“And why does he resemble his mother more and more? ”
Lee Ye-won didn't seem to have been violent at first either, but now when he's in a tight spot, he raises his hand and slaps someone on the back.
It's said to be still a mother, but it doesn't have to be like that.
How are you going to get married?
Is that the only way? ’
Choi Jung-hoon's mood was Lee Hyuk who was putting himself in the candidate's shoes without thinking.
“Hmm……. ”
Lee Hyuk shrugged his shoulders, feeling awkward, reflecting his image in a large mirror installed on the side of the road.
“Still, you're the best. ”
Although I am familiar with the training outfit, I could not deny that what I see now looks 1% better than usual.
“It's uncomfortable. ”
It was Lee Hyuk who suffered in the middle of looks and convenience.
Are you sure there aren't any cool and comfortable clothes?
RRRRR.
Lee Hyuk picked up his phone without delay as the tone rang.
“Hello?"
- Oh, Ji-hyuk. I'm Chang Hyuk. When will I arrive?
“I'm on my way. ”
- … is that so?
“Why?”
- No, I was wondering what happened an hour late. Just in case he doesn't show.
“Yes. Almost there. Don't worry. Just wait. ”
- Well, yeah.
Lee Hyuk hung up his phone and asked him about his cigarette.
“I want to see people here, so I can't go. ”
Lee Hyuk whistled and walked towards the meeting place.
“Is he coming?”
“Yes.”
At the words of Choi Chang-hyuk, the men's faces were slightly whitened.
“Really?"
“... There's no reason not to come. ”
“Even so……. ”
It was a reunion initiated by Lee Hyuk in the first place, so it was even weirder not to come. I knew all about it, but I did not fail to meet my last expectations.
“You said it'd be better to get hit first, but you'd better get here early. ”
“I know. ”
As the voice grew louder and louder, the women began to laugh at the men.
“Hey, are you so scared of Ji-hyuk? ”
“What did he say? ”
“Leave it. Women don't know that. ”
“You guys are so weird. In fact, Ji-hyuk wasn't really harassing the kids or anything. Even so, they're all adults now, so why are they running around so scared? ”
Choi Chang-hyuk laughed.
“I'm an adult.”
“I wouldn't worry if he was the one covering it up in the first place. ”
“What do women know? ”
“... What did Ji-hyuk do to you? ”
Choi Chang-hyuk sighed quietly and opened his mouth.
“Lee Hyuk is just like a non-striking monster in school, to put it simply. ”
“I like unskilled monsters. ”
Choi Mi tilted her head.
Lee Hyuk, whom he remembered, was not a particularly remarkable kid at school. I just sleep in the corner all the time, sleep again and again...
‘It's eye-catching. ’
I thought it was because I slept so naturally, but all I remember is sleeping in the back seat all the time.
“But I didn't do anything to hurt you, did I? ”
“Damage?”
Choi Chang-hyuk gestured and called for someone.
“Kwon Suk.”
“Huh?"
The child called Kwon Suk lifted his head.
“This is the headstone that Ji-hyuk had to keep open in front of him for a year because his back was the best in my class. Now I can't bend my back. ”
“ ……. ”
“You think that's it? Jonghyuk.”
“… don't. ”
“Our Jonghyuk is now a professional parkour player, even after he crossed the wall several times a day because Ji-hyuk lives in a cup. ”
“Don't do it. ”
Park Jong-Hyuk stole my eyes.
“… you think there are more than one victim? Ji-hyuk started out as homework director, Ji-hyuk was in charge of water, and even Ji-hyuk was in charge of music musical anthems. ”
Choi Mimi tilted her head as if she couldn't understand at all.
“Did you do everything Ji-hyuk asked you to do? Why were you being treated like that? Just do what you need to be angry about. ”
The men burst into laughter. Some children shed half a tear, pointing to the best.
“I really don't know anything. ”
“Huh? What? ”
“Do you know why we didn't have a day at school? ”
“Well?”
“When I was in first grade, the third graders called the guys and told them to pick up the money. ”
“Huh? Did that happen? ”
“Yes, but that day, the diary disappeared. ”
“Why?”
“Ji-hyuk was the one who took her back then. ”
“ ……. ”
Park Jong-Hyuk shook his head excitedly.
“I came to the classroom at lunch, and there's a guy lying on his back, so I just wanted to make sure he was okay. ”
“So?”
“I asked him to take me to the gym and collect the money, but Ji Hyuk smiled and said. How much do you want me to walk? ”
“ ……. ”
“And third-graders had to spit out ten times that. I've been eating well for a while now. ”
Choi Hyuk scratched his head as if he couldn't understand.
“It's still a day's work, so why don't you just give it to me? ”
“Gently?”
Choi Chang-hyuk helped the best understanding.
“Be gentle, be gentle. He gave it to me after he got admitted. ”
“Huh?"
“It took you ten days to get there, didn't it? ”
“Yes. At that time, Min-chul, who was in third grade, was probably admitted to the hospital because he survived until the end. ”
“Paddy, you were taken to the hospital? And you haven't been sued? ”
Choi Chang-hyuk shakes his head.
“How can you sue me if there's no trauma? ”
“No trauma? I was right.”
“One of the things that Lee Hyuk is good at is that his tears really hurt, but it really hurts like he's going to die, so he doesn't get hurt. ”
“… Well, well……. ”
Choi Chang-hyuk opened his mouth as if it were horrible.
“I don't really know how right the third graders were back then. You go on a bad break, you chop it off during lunch, you chop it off in the morning, you say it's cold, you say it's going to bed. ”
“Did you beat people up for something like that? ”
“So he's crazy. ”
“ ……. ”
“You're saying that because you didn't see Ji-hyuk go to the third grade classroom and beat up his brothers. There are no children in my class who are hit by Ji-hyuk, but there's a reason to play the game if Ji-hyuk only talks about it. I think that's what I look like when I think about it.Can you treat me like that? ”
“Why didn't I know? ”
“No one told me. ”
“Why?”
“... Would you be able to talk about Ji-hyuk like this in that situation? ”
“I can't.”
“Yes. That's why no one said anything. ”
Choi Mi opened her mouth.
Then they don't even know that Lee Hyuk dominated the school half the time.
“I wouldn't say anything if I was bullying my brothers. Do you remember that one of our old classmates, the one with the backbone? ”
“… No. ”
“Of course you don't remember. While she was resting, Ji-hyuk and his shoulder slammed down the hallway, saying," Watch out, kid. "It was normal in some ways, and in some ways, the liver came out of the boat. ”
“Yes.”
“He lived with great care. He was really careful about everything. If you get hit on the shoulder when you walk down the street like me, you'll live carefully. ”
I wondered what it looked like, but it was the best I could do without the courage to ask.
“You guys were in school comfortably. We couldn't breathe. ”
“Hey, you know that old man, the diet. Some say that she was transferred to another school after she graduated from school and was harassed by Lee Hyuk and threatened with her privacy. ”
“No way, it's a high school student.... ”
“I've been a high school student and a college student since middle school, and I beat them all up, but high school students are good enough to deal with teachers. ”
“… I don't even know what that means. ”
“I mean, roughly! ”
Choi Chang-hyuk opened his eyes and opened his mouth.
“Unlike what you think, Lee Hyuk is a moving bomb! I was the kind of guy who would say the wrong thing once, get slobbered down for a week, get pissed off, get beaten up for a week! ”
Park Jong-Hyuk added.
“The only advantage of not taking money from us. That doesn't mean I didn't take the money.I figured out where the local thugs were taking the money, attacked them, and I took it from them. ”
“I'd rather report it if I acted like it was a real day, but I don't do anything illegal. ”
“Well, why don't you just leave it alone? ”
Park Jong-Hyuk laughed.
“Can you live on water? ”
“Huh?"
“Do you know how hard it is to try to live the right life? What kind of person is Lee Hyuk?... A runaway walks by the house, and he chases after the rally on a bicycle because it's noisy, and breaks all the bikes. ”
“W-what, leave it alone? ”
“What if I don't leave it alone? ”
“ ……. ”
“If we were common sense, we wouldn't live here either. That doesn't matter because the common sense doesn't work. It's not easy living without annoying her personality. ”
“Uh-huh.”
Choi Hyuk nodded his head. I don't know what he was talking about, but I thought I knew they were having a hard time because of Lee Ji-hyuk.
“... I didn't tell you what I didn't want to say in front of you. ”
Choi Chang-hyuk sighed.
“I thought I'd never have to graduate again, but I can't believe I'm seeing you again. ”
“Then you don't have to. Only if we don't have a reunion. ”
“... What do I do when I meet you on the road? Do you know how shy she is? I can't be relieved until I leave South Korea. It would be better to break through. ”
... Is it true what I'm hearing is happening in real life?
Choi Mi smiled.
“I don't know. It was popular among women with good geography. The one that looks fine. Even if he is quite handsome... ”
“Crazy things.”
Choi Chang-hyuk shook his head.
If I went through Lee Ji-hyuk, I would fly away with such thoughts, but I couldn't show Lee Ji-hyuk from school in front of her.
“So what is Ji-hyuk doing these days? ”
“I hear you're quite capable.”
“Wow, you'll make good money, too. Talents are almost more than professional. ”
“You've already succeeded at that age. ”
Choi Chang-hyuk distorted his face.
“Hey, I'm risking my life. Do you know when I'm going to die? And then it's all over. ”
“Don't you talk too much? ”
“It's not that bad. Powerful people, honest people, all working for their lives. ”
The atmosphere was slightly cooled.
