16 – Future High School
Hey, does this make sense?
Passed is written in black letters on the monitor.
It was written in bold letters in case anyone didn’t recognize it.
“You’re lucky”
“No, so this is…”
This is lucky. Is it a problem that can be passed on like that…? When I think about common sense, I’m the one who shouldn’t come here.
“Are there any problems with administrative procedures or anything like that?”
“Nothing is normal”
“No, but I don’t know that it’s a human thing. Ah, teacher, by any chance, what happened to other high schools besides the future high school?”
That… If you have the skills to enter a future high school, wouldn’t all other vocational high schools be free passes?
No, even if you get accepted here anyway, you can go somewhere else.
I didn’t know it would turn out like this, but in preparation for failing out of Meister High School someday, I applied to several good high schools in the business world.
It’s much better than the humanities department, and you can get government funding… A curriculum of your own..? That looks good too Of course, I only saw the pamphlet written there.
Still, it will be better than high school in the future. There… No matter how much I think about it, it’s not where I’m going.
“I worked hard in my own way. The teacher thought, but I didn’t know that everything would be inconsistent.”
Uh…?
“This… Does this make sense…? I passed that future high school as well”
“There’s nothing that can’t be said. It’s difficult to get a job these days. Rather than going to a strange university and eating up tuition, there are a lot of friends like you these days who want to start a social life early.”
“…Ah…Yes”
Someone’s conspiracy.
I really couldn’t help but think that way.
Unless someone of an extremely high level twists my course at will. It can’t be like this.
I will stick here unconditionally. I thought so, and all the places I used for insurance were also treated as non-compliance, so I felt the intention of someone deciding to enroll me in Mirae High School.
But why? Why is it me…?
-Trudge
I returned to the classroom and sat down.
That… Do you have a lot of humanities positions left…?
But, as far as I know, if there is a TO left in a school other than this specialized high school, they will send you in unconditionally.
Humanities public.
I thought it wouldn’t be bad to go there.
…Uh, so… I’m preparing for the civil service exam there while everyone else is studying at university.
The civil service exam is also Korean, English, and social studies. That.. Do you also see math..? I’m not sure about that. Anyway, if you prepare for the civil service exam while studying for the entrance exam… How can you pass it before graduation?
What else can I do? Future high school..? No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think so…
What should I go to college for? How will you live until you graduate? Tuition. It’s already hard to start with something like that.
Civil servants… Do we really have to be civil servants…?
Otherwise, what should I do for a living…?
I didn’t go to school and dropped out..?
It’s clear that TO is full in most places anyway.
As for the high schools I can go to right now, I think there are only sh*tty high schools that I wouldn’t go to even if they gave it to me. But since I’m a civil servant, can I study something like that..?
I would rather drop out than just fight and fight every day, graduate with the GED with Yoo-jung, take the civil service exam…
Why do I have to worry about this already…? Why, did I end up entering something like a high school in the future?? Why?? Why?????
My stomach was stuffy like I had eaten 100,000 sweet potatoes. I really want to scream… But I have to eat later and go up to the back mountain..!
2)
I’m still confused because I’m making plans for the future, but when I go to the nursery school again- something seems to have happened.
One lucky thing is…!
That, it seems like a good thing, not a bad thing..!
I think it’s the first time I’ve seen the director smile like that.
Yoo Jeong-i was also sitting next to the director and saying “Wow- Wow” While looking at a book or something and admiring it.
“Aww~~~ Our Yoo Seon~~”
“..Uh? Uh huh??”
What…? What…?
Suddenly, the director saw me and started pulling my cheeks.
Just like I’m so cute and lovely that I don’t know what to do.
I don’t think I’ve ever gotten anything like this except when I got 100 points in dictation in the past. It’s because I’ve had a lot of accidents since middle school.
“Yoo Seon-ah…! Are you really going to a place like this..?!”
“What…? What… Where am I going…?”
No, why are the two of you suddenly talking strangely?!
Take the platform Yoojeong is holding and read it.
-Future High School
“Why is this here?”
“You said you were going to be here?”
“Who?”
From noble mtl dot com
“It was written in this letter!”
Is it enclosed together…?
Caught the stationery. The feel of the rough letter paper, a nice scent just flowed from the sealed envelope.
“…I was so curious… I couldn’t stand it… I’m sorry…”
“No, aside from that, give it to me. Let me read it too”
Read the contents inside the box.
-Congratulations on your admission.
“…Uh?… Uh…?”
“Wow…! Director…! Look at this..! There’s a swimming pool and tennis court in the school, and the facilities are great..!”
“…Wow..! Yes, really..! I think I like it better here than when I was in college..”
“No… Wait… Wait…! Isn’t this a bit weird..?!”
No… No… This is nonsense! What is it that I, who has fallen out of business, enrolls here…?! Where is something like that..? That’s ridiculous.
I can get into such a good high school, but it doesn’t make sense that I can’t get into a vocational school near my town.
“Common sense tells me there’s no way I could go to a school like this..! What about the tuition..! That… No… I mean that…”
I think I said something useless.
As soon as you bring up the topic of money, you can see his expression getting worse.
From the director’s point of view, this nursery school’s poor financial situation is holding my ankle… I wonder if it felt like that..?
Yoo-jeong and the director were like that, just a few seconds ago, I saw a promotional booklet like a 3-year-old cut and screamed wow- wow- wow- cuckoo- I’m so sorry.
“…I’ll try my best”
“First of all, I want you to go here without worrying about money.”
“I- Director..! A visitor came – from the Future Foundation..!”
Future Foundation… Something unusual..! The three of us looked out the window at the front door, no matter who did it first.
A man in a suit who had just gotten out of a black sedan was walking in front of the nursery school. The shoes you’re wearing, the suit, whatever, everything- they look incredibly expensive.
It was an outfit that didn’t match at all with the gray and drab nursery school.
“…Are you a sponsor…?”
“They said they came from the Mirae Foundation. Couldn’t they have come to explain the future high school admissions process…?”
“Common sense is that the package was sent by mistake due to an administrative error. So I came to collect it… Something like that.”
“Doesn’t the driver do that? Maybe it’s related to the wire…”
“Let’s go once”
3)
“I don’t know how to treat you in such a shabby place”
“No, no, no big deal. We really owe a lot of hard work to the director who raised such a great student.”
“…”
I could feel Yoojung looking at me through the slightly open door.
-What is it?
-I don’t know. I’ll explain later
We had a silent conversation with our mouths open.
And then… With a click, the door closes.
A person from the Foundation started talking.
Social Affirmative..? There were stories like that, and the second upper class… There were also stories like that, and stories that I could accept sensitively came back and forth a few times.
In conclusion, I came from a nursery school, so even if I just go to a high school in the future- Tuition fees and school uniforms are all provided free of charge. You can go to high school in the future without any burden.
You said that.
“It’s really good..! Yoo Seon-ah…!”
And the director’s expression widened, but I… I still felt a bit awkward.
“…Isn’t there a separate type for that too…?”
“…Selection..? Ah- Of course there is. Probably, Yu Seon-gun’s homeroom teacher… When he put in the application. Because he submitted the application with that selection. This is how he was able to pass.. .?”
4)
“…..”
“What happened?”
“Certainly, you may think it’s a little strange. Wired is for you”
“It’s not a little strange, it’s completely strange. All of them were treated as nonconformities, even in the business world.
It doesn’t make sense that I went to a future high school that is harder to get into than that… Also, I searched the Internet for future high school admissions. I heard there was no such thing…?
Social Affirmative? I’ve never heard of such an archetype.”
“…So?”
“When I thought- this high school is a scam. It’s a scam. This is something weird. The school district. By the way, I’ll have to call.”
“…Isn’t it just a matter of going around…? It’s sure to be fun to go there…?
There is a tennis court, a swimming pool, and a soccer field. The library is huge too… It’ll be fun… It’ll be fun
Just, there are only two students in the class, but only one teacher… No bullying kids, it’s sure to be good..!”
“That’s not where I belong”
By any chance, does Jina know the answer to this question?
I called Jin-ah, who was about to leave school, and asked about it. It sounds obvious, but Jina didn’t seem to know.
Well, what does Jina know…
“Then where are you going…?”
“Wherever you go… Just, well… You have to squeeze yourself into any empty seat…”
“…Don’t like that”
Bite your lips lightly. Brown eyes quivering anxiously. No, it’s me who’s going, not you.
“…If something doesn’t work out, drop out”
“…Seonah Yoo”
“Why”
“Can’t I just go…?”
“I’ve been telling you until now. I came to a place like this, what should I do…? This is a place where only kids who study very well and have a lot of money go.
High school should be as good as it gets, how can I go to a place like this?”
“I’ll help you”
“What?”
“I can help you from the side”
Since a while ago, Jin-ah keeps saying that this is a great place, the teachers are good, and that she will definitely be able to go to school happily.
No, I really want- I wish I could go to this school here… Because you keep saying that… Well, I didn’t ask that.
Her chest felt tight and stuffy. I left behind Jin-ah, who was trying to say this and that, and got out of the school first.
Jinah is saying something behind her back. Just what… She blew it off.
“…Yoo Seon-gun. I want you to ride in the car with me.”
“Yeah…? Me…?”
As soon as I get out of the front door, men in suits with short hair call me and stop me.
