Please take special care of my girl

I always wondered why Ga-young was so pretty
I see she takes after her mother
Please stop it
It's hard looking after all forty of my students
But don't worry about Ga-young
I'll take special care of her
Thank you
Well, a teacher's duty is to always sacrifice for the kids
That's my job

By looking at you all today,
I don't know what your previous teacher was like,

We usually exercise after homeroom
KIM BONG DOO My name is Kim Bong-doo
Since first days are rusty,
study on your own today
- Class monitor - Yes?
Jot down the names of anyone who act up, okay?
- Yes, sir - Now study
Nam-jin, what does he mean by 'rusty'?
I don't know
It means all your heads will rust off?
Be quiet, or else your names will be written down
Right?
Nam-jin, Sung-man, So-seok, Ae-soon
What are you doing here?
I'm asking you a question
Isn't it obvious? I'm working
Working here doing what?
Did you try to steal something?
I'm the school's janitor
Not officially, but everyone knows I am
I fixed up everything, so don't worry about a thing
Si? gym mm
The other teacher did?
Sir! Sir!
Kick the ball
So come and visit me
It's a famous cure-all-disease place
So when will you come?
I'll be out of here in a week
Yeah, I'm just here for a short while
Hey, Kangwon Province isn't three hours away anymore
I heard it took someone only an hour
- I'm serious - Just come
Hey
[En mam
We usually go after a while
- That's right - Why?
It's more fun playing at school
- Playing rock games is the best - We have to guard the school
That's right
- Hurry UP - Okay.
We have to guard the school
Think you're all some superheroes?
Hey!
Come here
W “Q?
Ne'?
Who is he calling?
You brats, if I call you, that means all of you
How dare you ask questions?
Go buy some cigarettes
Cute kids
You can buy whatever you like with the change
There's no store
Then where do you buy things?
We go into town and stock up once a month
Alright, then give it back
WEE!
Mister Choi has a lot of stuff
MIKE?
My dad buys cigarettes from him
Then go buy some from him
What's wrong?
Sir, we have to go
Hey!
[sum
Are you in?
[ES anyone home?
Emma]
I'm the new teacher at the school
What can I do for you?
It's nothing much
I rushed down from Seoul, so I couldn't pack enough
Have any cigarettes by the chance?
- Cigarettes? - Yes
ma: W]
I'd like to buy some from you
Imam
Do you have Sobranie instead?
Never mind
Then Marlboro or Dunhill perhaps
warm
This is domestic
Yes, I know
But do you have anything newer?
- Newer? - Yes
Any of the latest brands is fine
Whatever you have
Go buy your own foreign brands!
- What's the meaning of this? - You bastard
I told you I'd pay You
What? New brands?
- Come on! - Come here!
You rotten prick!
- Get away from me! - You punk!
Damn it!
- Are you insane? -Insane?
You good-for-nothing teacher
- Give me a break - Come back here!
What are you doing, guys?
What's the matter... can't you hear me?
Study
Where's M r. Kim?
To the principal school
When did he go there?
In the morning
And he's not coming back yet?
He's got no dog's chance.
It's boring. Come out and let's play ball.
No way. We'll get a hard time. It's okay. Come out! I'll take all the blame for it. Come on.
You go and play.
You guys are quite different persons now.
It's not like you!.
[Ls
Yes
It'll be dull at first, but you'll like it later
The previous teacher worked there for 20 years?
He was a great person, but a heart disease got to him
Must've been the stress
Not at all
It happened when he played soccer with the kids
So he passed away?
Not at all, he's at a big hospital in Seoul
What a relief?
So I guess he'll be coming back
I don't think so because of his health and age
That's too bad
A great teacher has come, but it has to be closed down
Well, make the best of you're time here
Oh yeah, you just need to come to the main office once a week
It won't be much of a meeting with just us here
Study
Sir, it's lunchtime
What?
[ES
Right,
Go eat and come back
I think our teacher doesn't like us
But I like him
mammal]
It's all a part of his plan
Didn't you see how worried he looked during study period?
It's hard for him to teach us after teaching those Seoul kids?
Just wait! He's gonna do wonders for us
mmmmm
Hurry UP
You little pricks!
You rotten kids!
Run and slip on manure!
Taste good'?
I can't eat without any kimchee, but you're woofing it down
Take your time, or your tongue will burn off
Don't you want real food?
Like instant noodles better?
I have plenty of noodles, so you eat them all, okay?
5311043151
Say yes, not 'ah-ha' to your teacher
Anyway, eat all this,
and clean it all up before you leave, okay?
Ma?
But don't you know my name?
It's So-seok, Yang So-seok
You dummy
There's only five of you, so how can I not know?
Right,
- It's So-seok - Yeah, So-seok
That's what I said, So-seok
Anyway, MM gym heme {ET MIME'?
Your mom isn't home?
Man, if this was Seoul,
we'd eat real food for lunch, and
[Him
And thank you for taking time off to come here
I'll be brief and end this quickly
What I've noticed is that the learning environment here
is much different from Seoul
It's not the school's size or the small number of students?
Just because it's a rural school, you can't treat it that way
So I want to put them
in the same learning environment as in Seoul
So the first step we must take is the school's
lunch program
W] (£13
- Yes, sir! - Come here
Yummy!
- You like eating at school? - Yes!
I told you our teacher is special
Credit card bill
Here you go, Sung-man
My Nam-jin
So-seok
Ae-soon
And our monitor, Nam-oak
Good
What did I give you?
551]] envelope!
Yes, but what kind of envelope?
- A letter envelope - That's right
Today's homework is to write a letter
The topic is What I want to do for my teacher
Make sure you go home and discuss it with your parents
- Understand? - Yes, sir?
- Understand, Sung-man? - Yes, sir?
- And Nam-oak? - Yes, sir
I bet my Ae-soon has a question
But why isn't there any paper inside?
I knew my Ae-soon would ask that
The letter isn't important
What's important is what's inside the envelope
Don't you wanna come?
The air and scenery here is spectacular
You'd love it if I took you out on a date here, Sun-young
What? Run away?
Hey, think I came here to run away from my tab?
Hey, I'm a teacher wherever I go
Of course
Know how many rich people are here?
Yeah, they do the same here
Envelopes!
Good, So-seok
Ae-soon
- Have anything to say? - No, sir
okay
Nam-jin, what's this?
It's 'todok' roots
My brother and I wrote the letter
And that's from my father
thought H!
So how far have we gotten?
- Where have I left off? - We never started
Right,
Then let's start class today
Chapter one, a school's rules
Our lifestyle, politics, and environment
Now, does my Nam-jin want to read with me?
Baby seagulls are left alone in the nest
What's with the long face, Sung-man?
Why the long face, huh?
Sir, art class is next
m QT outside?
It's study period
How are all of you?
I see we have everyone here
Mr. Kim, what brings you here?
I'm just paying a visit to the parents
I see. Then you should come over to our place later
No, Ma'am
At school I'm the teacher, but at home the parents are
Talking with you all here is vital part of education
Oh, Mr. Kim
This field is really huge
Please, let me help
mamas
How much is all this worth?
Not much, really
But if you sell a truck load, you must make a lot
Nam-oak must be from a rich home
No, it's Ae-soon's parent's field
Ae-soon's mother!
Boy, I'm tired
Why are you here?
I came for a favor
What favor?
Could you teach me how to write?
MKS?
Write what?
Korean
Why do you need to write at your age?
Just forget about it
Did I ask for a free lesson?
UH!
Why not?

Just repeat after me

Sir, there's a fight outside
Emmy
Why are you fighting?
Mister Kim
Well, I tried to use this hose,
and when I extend it on the road like this,
this bastard always rolls over it with his tractor,
III this
It rips apart like this and I can't work!
I have to go to town to sell this,
but he tells me to go later
Damn it, why do you have to go to town whenever I use my hose?
It's all by coincidence, damn it
Listen to me! Listen!
So you have to put the hose
here to water your crops
And you have to pass this way on your tractor
- That's the problem, right? - That's right
[E happy
I have to go back to school now
Let's go
He's smart
Mr. Kim is really smart
Where did the hose go? What a great job
You're in trouble now
Hurry and play, the game is over anyway
mama?
Game over
Yes, thank you very much
Give it here
Damn it
A white cloud floating in the sky
That white cloud floating in the sky
Should
Go ahead
Wait, isn't that Sun-young?
Mare
Are you mad that I came for your tab?
[IE
Then what's wrong?
I have something on my mind
Really? WEE?
Tell me Tell me
- Tell me - Stop it, just go to sleep
Fine then, I will
Just think on your own
Hey
Are you asleep?
Not at all, honey
mama
UH!
Just stay still, and listen
If you were to come here as a teacher
- Teacher? - Yeah
But I'm a high school drop out
I mean suppose if you were
Suppose you came down to teach here,
but you have to stay
until the school shuts down
What would you do?
It's obvious. I'd just quit
Not that, dummy
How would you make the school shut down faster?
I'd burn it down
I knew you'd say that,
with that brain of yours
I know, how about setting up a bomb?
- Just go back to sleep - A bomb
Shut up, and go set up a bomb at your house for all I care
You're the one who asked anyway
Dummy
How can it just shut down on its own?
There has to be no students for that to happen
You fool, how dare you look into my eyes!
Now give it a try
You fool, how dare you look into my eyes
You fool, how dare you look
You fool, how dare you look into my eyes!
Bravo!
Ae-soon, that was wonderful! She's good, huh?
- An actress? - Yes
She can't be an actress with a face like that
That's right
That's not true
These days, it's all about character
Anyway, Ae-soon is very energetic
- She does have that side in her - That's right!
I have a friend who works
at a talent agency, you see
In other words, they dig out and nurture talent there
Choi Jin-shil and Jang Dong-gun came from there
film; star
Mr. Kim, you're right,
- but we can't afford - Hold on
Getting good grades in middle school
all depends on how she studies in Seoul during winter break?
Sir
Ma'am
But he's only in first grade
That's not true at all
Throughout {to a artist
90% of his talent is nurtured in childhood
By chance
If by chance, you don't raise his talent
then Sung-man will
forever
forever live his life hating his parents
So-seok!
What are you doing out here?
Came out to greet me?
Not exactly
Sir, can you come later instead?
Talking
I came to talk about your future today
ls your mom home?
Wane:
Really?
Then think of me coming to wish your mom well
- Let's go inside - Not exactly
No, it's not a good time
Come on boy, it's all right
Where is she?
How are you?
I'm So-seok's teacher I came to talk
Is that you, honey? Where have you been?
No, I'm So-seok's teacher
You son of a bitch
Think you can just leave me like that, you bastard?
Wait a minute
[Him
- It's my fault - So-seok!
- Honey - Wait for me
A lot of stars out tonight, huh?
Remember when we first met?
Wm skipping
Remember?
Val]
I knew it right then
But I just pretended not to
Do you know Kim Byung-hyun by any chance?
He's a major league baseball player in America
- A two-time all-star player - Yeah
His nickname is nuclear submarine
He has a great under hand
- So-seok - Yes?
Wm a baseball
- A baseball player? - Yeah, a baseball player
If you become a famous baseball player,
you can send your mom to the hospital and find your dad, too
Right?
So how will you do it?
You have to go to Seoul, which has many baseball teams
Don't you have relatives there?
[IE
Okay, then I'll help you
Don't you want to play baseball?
I do
Then how about we skip rocks on the stream?
Mum
I'm no good

Man, you have a great arm
Th row it again. Ready?
Now an under hand pitch

Okay So-seok!
Don't pick it up
Hey, hurry and get the ball
Good job! So-seok, more under hand pitches
Nam-jin, is it fun?
There are a lot of games like this in Seoul
Go straight
Go straight and turn right
Here it comes! Fire!
Fantastic!
Our Seoul

Where our wonderful dreams are
I] beautiful
{HIE}
Our beloved Seoul
Sung-man, you'll burn it like that
Lift it up and turn, good
Let's see if it's done
mam:
Peel off the burned parts
Everyone, tell me the truth
Wanna go to Seoul, huh?
Wan
Why do you wanna go?
There's amusement parks
There's computer arcade rooms
department
So if you have the chance, you'd transfer to Seoul?
- Right? - No way
You just said you wanted to go
I don't want to transfer
Why don't you?
The air is bad in the city
- And there aren't any streams - What else?
And we won't be able to see you anymore
And you can't come see us
Yeah!
I heard there's a lot of gangsters?
They take your money and stab you to death
Who told you that?
Seoul has no gangsters Who told you there were?
Mr. Choon-shik told us, and said he almost died
- Who told you? - Mr. Choon-shik
I saw it in the movies, and on TV, too
I heard if we transfer, we'll all die
Let's talk
About what? I have nothing to say
Think you have the right to tell those kids that crap?
A lot of gangsters?
They'll all die?
Hey, I'm talking to you
Tum it off
Are you ignoring me?
Think you're the teacher?
Who are you to tell the kids those things?
Stop where you are?
Have you even been to Seoul?
"Warm
Stop!
Stop, you bastard!
You bastard!
All of you haven't really considered your kids' future,
but I'm looking at them ten years from now
Have you ever considered
how much your indifference could hurt your kid's future?
Dreams must be fulfilled
So why do so many parents send their kids to Seoul?
Seoul is the center of all education
So if you send your kids to Seoul
Why is there a hole here?
Please trust me
Ae-soon's MEET
Is that important now?
These talented children
Are you going to let them waste their talents here?
Mister Kim
Can I go now?
Yes
Make sure you do your homework
Know. what'll happen if you don't, right?
By the way,
I m
But you aren't an official student
Okay, I'll come over tonight
I'm out of cigarettes anyway
Really?
Then come over for dinner
okay
[EEG
Absolutely
Help yourself
Aren't you joining me?
Who me?
My teeth hurt, so I can't eat it
And I'm already full
Is that so?
But it's too much to eat alone
What's that?
It's a letter my grandson sent to me from America
I understand everything,
except for this one word here
Oh, 'girlfriend'
It means he has a girlfriend
A girlfriend?
Yes, it's English
So it must be my grandson's wife
Having a girlfriend doesn't mean he's married
He already did, three years ago
So that letter was sent three years ago?
Yes
And now you're reading it'?
Lately I'm into staying up all night reading the letters
- Go ahead and eat - Yes
Father, it's me
mam
Same as always

Mm {BEE
I wish I could see your students before I die
Don't say you're going to die'.
I have no one else to rely on
Do I have a mom or relatives?
Or any brothers or sisters?
Why do you keep saying that?
I'm sorry, son
Father
You said you were proud that a janitor's son became a teacher
Son, you should hang up
It's an expensive call
Then don't say that you'll die, okay?

Beg Your pardon?
Actually, he wants to turn the school
into a survival game site
I know it won't be easy at the moment
A site for a survival game?
Yes
They decided to shut down the school next year
but they seem to be changing their minds after you came
Mr. Kim
All the kids will transfer soon, so please don't worry
Is that true?
So the school will shut down automatically?
Yes
That's great
Mister Kim, you're a fabulous teacher
Of course he is
The students will find it hard to adjust
But the learning environment will be much better in Seoul
manila struggle
I also had to struggle to work my way up
You're right, we had to walk 2 to 3 miles to go to school
Country kids are used to struggling anyway
Mister Kim
It's not much, but buy some cigarettes with it

It's strange
Why'd he change all of a sudden?
You retorted upon him
So did you!
You said "two hours already have passed", didn't you?
Stop it!
I said stop it! It's all my fault!
Him
Mr. Kim seems to have had something bad
So let's be nice to him
Stop it!

It's all your fault that I got hit
No it's not, he was just mad
He had no right to hit us

The teacher and all of you are stupid
What?
You bastard
Think you're better than us since you're from Seoul?
But my mom gave him money!
My mom gave him money
What? Money?
He said he gave Mr. Kim money
Think this is Seoul?
What kind of money do we have?
Mama
We just don't give him any
You're right
Everything's been fine, so what's to worry?
Mum
Forget it, I'm going to bed
Yeah, let's go to sleep
Please take it
This is herbal medicine
If you eat it three times a day,
you'll feel much better
- Thank you - My pleasure
I'll be going now
Didn't you want to talk about Sung-man?
We can talk later?
Mister Kim, are you asleep?
Moment
Who is it?
Oh, you're still awake
Hello. Nam-Oak's father, right?
Please come in
What are you doing here?
Then what about you?

Azaleas have already blossomed on the mountain
EEG beautiful
And thus people who seek
beauty will love flowers
Many flowers blossom in spring
Of which I like the forsythias and azaleas
When spring comes, the flowers
Kim Bong-doo!
Together

You'll be like him

51351131233
How could this happen?
How could this happen to my boy?
Think I can feel safe sending my son here?
It's only a scuffle between the kids
Cheer up
What?
I can't believe this
I] {E mmm
And you hit him when it was the other kids' fault?
You call this teaching?
You're out of line
We're having class, so please leave
IRENE?

What the hell do you handle?

I'm not done yet!
You, tell me
Say something
mum
It was our fault
Mr" Kim, don't leave
Don't quit, Mr" Kim
We were wrong Please don't leave
My goodness
What kind of children are you?
There's no use being here, let's go
So-seok!
So-seok went to go work in the mountains
Everyone helps him out in some way,
but I guess he suddenly needed money
Poor kid
My teacher, Mr. Kim
This is the first homework you've given us
I was surprised when I first saw you
You were tall and handsome,
thought
I have a really great teacher
Class Beautifier, Choi Ae-soon
My teacher, Mr. Kim
I'm so happy that we have a new teacher
But you've lost a lot of weight these few days
It's probably because of us
What can I do for my teacher?
I wish I could give you some delicious home-cooked meals,
[HEREIN
Instead, I'll be a nice student
Sincerely, Yang So-seok
Yang So-seok
So-seok, you misbehaved, didn't you?
Get up, and roll up your pants
I'm sorry, sir
NOW!
Roll up your pants
Who said you can skip school?
Who told you to, huh?
Who told you to do that to your teacher?
Who told you to
I'm sorry, sir
I don't want you to leave us
And I can't transfer because of my mom
I just want to be with you at school
I'm sorry, sir
Does it hurt a lot?
[IE
So-seok, do you want to sleep at my house tonight?
I'll put medicine on you
okay
(QUE
If you cry too much and laugh, you'll grow hair on your anus
{mama
Ne'?
Hey, I never cried
Come on, you're lying
When I was a kid,
I got hit a lot by my teacher
But I never cried once
WWI]
Because hair might grow on my anus
It wasn't funny?
Until now, a very bad guy bothered your teacher
But last night
I got rid of that evil guy
Gone forever
Therefore, I don't need what he wrote here
What do you think?
- Am I a great teacher? - Yes!
- Do you like this place that much? - Yes!
Even with no computer arcades?
Water games are more fun!
And rock games are fun
You hate your teacher, huh?
No way!
But your teacher dislikes you very much?
Come on!
Then shall we play rock games for fun?
- Yes! - Okay, Let's go!
Mr. Choi, come join us
Th row it
{imam {Bum
Mr. Choi, get it right!
- Are you okay? - Come on!
- I wanna change teams - My knees hurt, that's why
Hey, give him a break Now let's switch sides
(mam;
Here we go, one, two, three
Shut Down Notice

to be shut down after this semester
Mister Kim!
Come inside quickly!
You have a call from Seoul Hospital
R's urgent'. Hurry'.!
Hello?
Yes
I understand
Mister Kim
It's the heroic five
Why aren't you guarding the school?
You didn't have to come all the way here
Please don't say that, we're all family
Thank you all for coming
Come here
You should show your respects, too
It's okay, come up
Father
Father, you've longed to see them
These kids are my students
They're as bad as me
when I was a kid
Father
These kids
For their teacher
They came here
D W
Father, please accept their greetings
Now pay your respects
Why don't you say hello when someone's here to see you?
You still don't like me?
A janitor shouldn't fall off the roof like that
Are you a real janitor?
Are you making fun of me?
Man, you got hurt pretty bad
You can't even wash yourself, so how will you work now?
HES ask
Well, the school will be closed down anyway
So what will you do for a living later?
What does it matter to you?
I'm just worried about how you'll make a living
The school may go, but the kids won't
Even if they go to another school,
I'll make it where they can
study and play after school?
I've worked here because I like seeing these kids
I'm not like other people who work here for money
Come here and sit
- What are you doing? - Sit down
You have to wash your hair, too
Ouch, my head hurts
I'm getting drenched
Look at this greasy hair
I already washed my hair a few days ago
Stop lying What is this? Dandruff or rice?
54th Graduation Ceremony
We will now begin the 54th
ma:
We'll now hear a word from the teacher, Mr. Kim Bong-doo
I've been a teacher for about ten years
It's been short,
mmmmm
here was precious
Of course, I had some dull moments
I won't take this time to say good-bye
I'll just think of it as a brief separation
Mr. Kim, Coach Gus Hiddink said the same thing
You can't fool us anymore
Does it matter whose words I use?
Anyway, I'd like to thank you all
Especially, these five children
I'll never forget them
I didn't teach these kids
These kids taught me instead
I'd like to ask one last favor from you all
Even when you become adults,
I want you to always hold on to your pure and innocent hearts
THEME]
But wherever you go,
never forget what you've learned here
That is all
A farewell address
The very first time when we met you in school, we were so happy
WERE-S hearts [Hp
and we would run to get to school with joy
It seems like last forever
But today we have to face with
the graduation of you and the last day of our school
We cannot go to our school from tomorrow on
ml], {fie
which is filled with our laughter
mum
I'd walk to our school even before I entered
And today is the saddest day cause it"s the last school day for us all
Theres a lot of ups and downs but you guys always gave me smile
Mr. Kim taught us with love
I'd never forget any minute of
the precious memories of us all
DEE] hardly falling
Just like our school bound us together
Let's keep our school with our hearts forever
Farewell my dear school yard!
