I expected there would be a backlash.

– Hwang In-woo: If it’s going to be like this, then just drop it.

They’ve been working hard, but now they have to suddenly change the topic to something else.

Of course, it causes a great sense of loss along with great fatigue.

I knew you’d come up with something like “let’s quit.”

There was no need for me to bring this up here.

– Bang Da-ye: Didn’t you see the professor’s notice that came down this time?

– Bang Da-ye: You said that content is important, but teamwork is the most important.

– Bang Da-ye: I always ask my team members about this.

– Bang Da-ye: Are you going to give me a scholarship?

– Hwang In-woo: But that doesn’t mean we can start over from the beginning.

– Lim Dong-gyu: … … I’ll do it again.

– Dong-gyu Lim: If I retake the course again, I will be kicked out of the house.

– Heo Jeong-ah: Look at how selfish you are.

– Heo Jeong-ah: That’s why you get cursed at. Every day, whenever something goes wrong, you try to give up.

– Hwang In-woo: Heo Jeong-ah, don’t cross the line.

– Heo Jeong-ah: oh

This is a mess.

It makes me feel a little better to see these guys fighting each other.

Is this what it feels like to watch beasts fight?

Surprisingly, it’s not a bad thing to feel a sense of satisfaction in your heart.

– Shin Se-rim: So what are you going to do? If you’re going to do it, then do it.

– Bang Da-ye: In fact, they are giving you points for free, so why are you giving it up?

– Bang Da-ye: You’re saying we’re all going to get bad grades because of you? Are you kidding me?

People naturally do not want to become perpetrators.

When you start to criticize yourself so openly, you realize that you have to make your own decisions.

– Hwang In-woo: Okay, I understand. I will do it.

Hwang In-woo also had no choice but to agree in the end.

Because our relationship has already been broken once.

Rather, they could freely pour out their words to each other.

– Kim Woo-jin: Then, since I submitted the report, I will take the lead again.

– Kim Woo-jin: We were late, right? We started later than the other groups, and we changed the topic in the middle.

– Kim Woo-jin: There is no sagging or anything like that.

– Kim Woo-jin: Just try not to contact anyone.

– Kim Woo-jin: It doesn’t end with just sniping the bamboo forest.

– Kim Woo-jin: Let’s go kill that guy together.

like this.

Nobody wants that.

They hate each other.

But the journey of being tied by the leash of grades began.

– Heo Jeong-ah: Is this the correct information? Chief, please take a look at this.

– Heo Jeong-ah: (File: Data research)

– Kim Woo-jin: What the fuck. Did you scrape this from Wikipedia?

– Kim Woo-jin: Who sent this?

– Heo Jeong-ah: That bastard Hwang In-woo.

– Kim Woo-jin: In-woo, you want to fall behind? You son of a bitch, aren’t you going to do it right?

– Hwang In-woo: Stop talking.

– Hwang In-woo: I did that because I was busy. Because I was busy.

– Kim Woo-jin: Who here isn’t busy?

– 방다예: 개새끼야, 제대로 하라고.

– Dong-gyu Lim: Ha, you popular kids.

– Shin Se-rim: (emoticon)

– Hwang In-woo: Ha, the chatroom talk here is really dirty.

If there’s one thing that’s changed since I took the helm.

The words we use in chat rooms have become much more vicious.

Even though we hurt each other’s feelings, we keep going until the end. After all, isn’t it all right to just keep going?

– Kim Woo-jin: Find the data and bring it straight. Jeong-ah, send me the data he sent and I will take charge of the inspection.

– Heo Jeong-ah: Yes!

* * *

“No, are you kidding me? Who the hell is going to see this font size?”

He grabbed the back of Lim Dong-gyu’s head and brought him close to the laptop.

“Look at this. Can you see it? Can you see it? Can you see it when I do it like this? Do you think this is right?”

“… … No.”

“You said you’ve made a PPT. But what is this? Is this right? Huh?! Do you want to learn what a PPT is again?! Yangshikdo, where the hell did you get this crap from-!”

Then he poured it out while raising his voice.

Bang Da-ye and Hwang In-woo are sitting across from each other, each researching data on their tablets and laptops.

Next to the two were rows of energy drink cans.

“Did you find the data? I told you to bring the correct one.”

“No… … The topic is too difficult, sir, so-.”

Hwang In-woo started to grumble and stick out his lips.

“Is it my fault again?! Again! Again?! Then you should have done better from the beginning! Huh?! You didn’t do it when I tried to comfort and appease you like that. Am I right or not?”

“… … I’m sorry.”

“That, captain.”

Bang Da-ye, who was standing next to her, carefully raises her hand. She is wearing horn-rimmed glasses and a hood pulled up, just like a college student.

“Say it.”

“Here’s what you said, but the data is in English… … .”

“But?”

“… … I don’t know English very well.”

“If you’re from Moonchang, don’t you speak English a little?”

“No, not all of them. Isn’t it English, sir?”

“What do you want me to do? You’re the one who does the research.”

“… … .”

“Or at least use a translator.”

Bang Da-ye grumbled and began to translate the text using the translator.

I wonder why you’re asking me when you already know the method.

Check the time again.

It’s already been 30 minutes since the library conference room was booked.

“Why isn’t Shin Se-rim coming again!”

As soon as I shouted out, Shin Se-rim arrived right on time as if she had heard me.

She came to me with a refreshing smile and handed me some snacks.

“Sorry, boss! I was late because I had to call the company to check something!”

She acts cute by rubbing her chest against her arm.

Hwang In-woo looked envious at that, and Heo Jeong-ah clicked her tongue.

‘This girl still hasn’t come to her senses.’

Here we need to show the gap.

It’s exactly the time you said you’d arrive.

The door opens again.

Seo Ye-rin, fully dressed up, comes in smiling brightly, carrying a coffee carrier in both hands.

“Hello! My name is Seo Ye-rin!”

“ and… … .”

“Crazy.”

People who are overwhelmed by their gorgeous appearance.

Even otaku Dong-gyu Lim looks at Seo Ye-rin with his mouth wide open.

The goddess has descended.

“Woojini looks so tired lately, so I bought you coffee to cheer you up!”

Seo Ye-rin handing out coffee to each person.

I smile as I hand over my coffee to Shin Se-rim, who was standing next to me, one last time.

“Ah, you’re from the agency that Woojini was talking about! I can tell right away!”

“Ah, yes… … .”

Look at him being so scared that he can’t even speak properly.

Before she knew it, Shin Se-rim’s eyes had turned downwards, but they bounced off Seo Ye-rin’s voluptuous chest and rose back up.

“Where do you belong? I’m working at YS right now!”

“Ah, I am… … from a small, new agency called Marimo.”

“I guess I’ll see you later at work!”

Seo Ye-rin, is she acting or really thinking like that?

Now, I can’t tell the difference either.

“Even though Woojini is a bit harsh with his words, he is very kind to those who are kind to him! But if it goes the other way, it can be a bit difficult.”

The team members all nodded slightly in agreement.

“Anyway, cheer up! Fighting! Woojina, I’ll text you later?”

“Okay, go ahead.”

The door closes.

It feels like the air that was fresh just a moment ago is becoming polluted again.

I asked Shin Se-rim while drinking coffee with a straw in my mouth.

“What, where did you come from and what did you do?”

“… … No.”

“Yes, let’s practice our presentation. Jeong-ah, what about the script?”

“Ah, here it is. I’ve already prepared it.”

Heo Jeong-ah quickly brought the script to me. As I read through it, I couldn’t help but frown.

“Why are there so many typos? No, even the most basic spelling is wrong. Are you some kind of daily serial writer? Why are there so many typos! Is it hard to even write this briefly?!”

“Oh, no.”

“Did you run a typo checker?”

“… … No. I don’t see anything wrong with it.”

“That’s what you’d expect when you see it! First, check for typos and correct the grammar! And there are a lot of repetitive words, so fix those too!”

“Oh, yes.”

But then he hands the script straight to Shin Se-rim.

“Read this.”

Shin Se-rim received the script and began to read it calmly.

“What are you doing?”

“Huh?”

“Huh? What the hell, what? Are you kidding me? Are you going to make an announcement like that? Even elementary school kids don’t do that these days!”

“… … .”

“Tighten your stomach! Is that all you can say about being a celebrity? Straighten your back! Don’t just look at the script, look straight ahead! And use some gestures!”

“Oh, yes.”

“Mr. Vocalization!”

“Yep!”

You’re finally starting to feel more human.

While listening to Shin Se-rim read the script, I checked the messages on my phone.

– Seo Ye-rin: Were you close to that woman?

“… … .”

– Kim Woo-jin: No, I just came and scolded him.

– Seo Ye-rin: Did he give you the snacks too?

– Kim Woo-jin: I threw it away. It’s true.

– Seo Ye-rin: Be careful. I’m being sarcastic. I’m being sarcastic!

– Kim Woo-jin: When I see things like this, I get scared of you, Ye-rin.

– Seo Ye-rin: ♥

“Oh my.”

Anyway, I’m grateful that you came to me today to enforce discipline.

“Hey, boss. Please take a look at the PPT.”

“Bring it.”

Lim Dong-gyu brought out his laptop while sitting down and snapping his fingers.

If you look through the PPT, this time it’s noticeably different from before and it’s pretty good.

“It’s gotten a lot better.”

“Right?”

“Yeah, looking at this, it looks like it could get better.”

“… … Yes?”

“Looking at this side, you’re saying that the presenter mentions each one by specifying them? Can you animate this to move it like this?”

“It’s possible… …but it seems like too much work.”

“Well, that’s fortunate because there’s still a lot of time left.”

“… … .”

“If you do this, I’ll put one character of your choice in the PPT.”

“Really?!”

“Are you sure? Go and do it right now! This kid still hasn’t come to his senses!”

“… … .”

Lim Dong-gyu returned to his seat and started fiddling with his PPT.

While I was slurping coffee and playing a game on my phone, I got another message.

– Yoo Ah-rin: (photo)

– Yoo Ah-rin: Hahahaha

– Yoo Ah-rin: I didn’t delete it on purpose.

– Yoo Ah-rin: That’s so funny. How much do you want it?

After checking the photo and the text, I sighed.

When I sighed openly, everyone looked around.

“Everyone stop moving.”

“… … ?”

“Why?”

“Can I take a break?”

You’re making a resting sound.

“Come out, the bastard who wrote in the bamboo forest, ‘Our humanities team leader is a fucking tyrant. I hope that fucking bastard gets hit by a car and gets crushed while walking down the street.’”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

* * *

Clap clap clap clap.

The sound of people’s applause seems to comfort me.

After the group project presentations were all over, I said my final goodbyes to the members of Group F and hoped that my relationship with them would last a lifetime.

After the applause ended.

The professor’s comments poured in.

“Well done. Really well done. I didn’t know you would bring up such a difficult and complicated topic and explain it so perfectly, especially when you said you wouldn’t care much about the content.”

Professor Jeong also expressed his admiration, saying he didn’t know he could do this well.

“The teamwork among the members was also good. The way they answered mechanically was really great.”

of course.

Because they wouldn’t let me go home until I stuffed them in my head.

Anyway, I’m in a dorm.

“The materials were also excellent. It was great that they compared the original language separately, explained its meaning, criticized the Korean translation, and pointed out cultural differences.”

of course.

The guys who did the research made me do the research even after they finished making the PPT.

I dug deep to find some quality material.

“The PPT is also clean. Did you refer to the Jobs video? It seems like it was created with that kind of atmosphere.”

of course.

He made me watch all the PPT presentation videos on YouTube and even asked me to buy paid forms with my own money.

“The presenter was especially good. His pronunciation was not slurred, his eye contact was good, and his gestures were appropriate.”

of course.

Shin Se-rim cried once.

I don’t know how many times I’ve pushed that if the presenter isn’t perfect, then everything is screwed.

“Overall, it was very good. I hope other groups follow this example and prepare other assignments.”

We received great praise from the professor.

“Fuck, it’s finally over.”

“ Don’t look back, ”#◦

“Group F. Fucking fuckin fuckin fuckin.”

“Should I take a leave of absence?”

They were all muttering and swearing among themselves, looking equally worn out.

We didn’t even say hello to each other.

When I returned to my seat, my eyes met with Choi Yi-seo’s.

Choi Yi-seo gave it a thumbs up and praised it, saying it was the best.

‘Okay, this is good enough.’

Smiling contentedly, I give my final words to our team members.

“Everyone, I have one thing to confess in good conscience.”

Now that the presentations are over, the group members are looking at each other wondering what’s left.

I spoke calmly but honestly.

“There is no such thing as a submitted report.”

silence.

Bang Da-ye, who had finally come to her senses amidst the silence, raised her hand and asked.

“That, that… …what do you mean.”

“Chief said he couldn’t do anything else because he had to submit a report. Actually, that was a joke.”

therefore.

There was no need to change the subject.

The professor probably didn’t think that the assistants had a fight with each other.

“Then… …what did the leader do?”

“I teased you guys. While teasing, I played some games on my phone. I drank coffee, took a nap, and chatted with girls.”

It really relieved my stress.

If you curse and make them do something, doesn’t it bring about better results?

“Still, since you gave the best presentation, I felt I had to say something about your efforts.”

I said this with a bright smile and a thumbs up to the crew members who were looking at me with blank expressions.

“I got on the bus well.”
