00:00This is the most notorious high school in all of Korea. Not only do all the students glorify
00:05violence, but even academic rankings can be decided through fights. However, despite this
00:10harsh environment, Ga Min still wanted to get into a top university. He knew from a young age
00:16that knowledge could change his fate. Without anyone asking, he joined various tutoring classes.
00:22After working hard, he finally ranked third from the bottom. But this didn't discourage him. After
00:28entering middle school, he even hired a private tutor. Yet, his grades stayed the same, still
00:34third from the bottom. He blamed himself for not working hard enough. So he studied everywhere,
00:39on the bus, even in the restroom. Finally, he moved up to second from the bottom.
00:45Failing again and again, he started losing motivation. One day, he overheard classmates
00:52talking about attending technical high school and entering college through special admission.
00:57Suddenly, he regained his desire to study. He eagerly entered technical high school,
01:02only to find it wasn't what he expected. He thought if he just kept his head down and studied,
01:07everything would be fine. But his grades remained second from the bottom. He guessed the tough
01:12students must be studying hard at home. So, he decided to try the last solution, create a study
01:18group. His mom's friend mentioned her son improved by 10 places after joining a study group. So he applied
01:25to join many groups, but was always rejected for being too far behind. Some boys even mocked that
01:30he'd have better reborn than joining a study group. From that moment, he swore to create his own study
01:36group. He looked for the smartest-looking student among the slackers, and found Si Haiyan. Just as he
01:42invited him to study, a guy ranked 173rd, challenged Si Haiyan. Si Haiyan didn't want to fight, but a guy
01:49nearby warned him that if he didn't fight properly, he'd report him to the disciplinary department.
01:55The disciplinary department was an official school gang, meant to suppress ordinary troublemakers,
02:00using violence freely. Si Haiyan had no choice but to fight back. Unfortunately, he wasn't strong
02:06enough and lost the fight. That day, a new teacher, Ms. Lee, arrived. Ga Min realized she was his private
02:13tutor from middle school. She had always recognized his efforts and believed he would beat his bad grades
02:18one day. When she started calling the roll, the class showed extreme disrespect, with a boy even
02:25farting. The class bully leader, Hyun Woo, woke up in anger. He threw coffee at the blackboard and
02:31punished that boy. After class, Ga Min found Ms. Lee to reminisce about the past. She kindly asked about
02:39his current studies. Excitedly, he told her about his plan to create a study group and said he already
02:44had someone in mind. To get Si Haiyan to join, Ga Min followed him around and kept talking to
02:50himself. Eventually, Si Haiyan couldn't take it anymore and agreed to tutor him. He explained things
02:56patiently, again and again. But Ga Min still didn't understand. Though he took very detailed notes,
03:03they were all useless. He truly had no talent for studying. Si Hyun refused to join his study group and
03:09told the naive Ga Min that Pi Han Ul would never allow it. Pi Han Ul's father was a notorious
03:15gang
03:15leader known for his cruelty. Pi Han Ul was the number one in school, not because of grades, but
03:21because of his combat power. He also created a ranking software to make students obsess over the power
03:27ranking. Ga Min didn't care and showed his second-place report card, persuading him to study for college
03:34together. Si Hyun angrily tore it up and warned Ga Min to stop bothering him. In the restroom,
03:41he thought Ga Min was still following him, so he cursed loudly. To his surprise, it was Hyun Woo.
03:47He quickly apologized for mistaking him. Hyun Woo didn't let it go and demanded 200,000 won
03:53as compensation. Si Hyun looked troubled but was brutally beaten. Just then, Ga Min, wearing a mask and
04:01holding a fire extinguisher, burst in. In the chaos, he rescued Si Hyun. But Si Hyun didn't thank him and
04:08blamed him for interfering. He said that if he escaped, he would be tortured forever. He tried to
04:14leave but ran into Hyun Woo again. Even though he was beaten again, he didn't reveal that Ga Min had
04:21saved
04:21him. At a critical moment, Ga Min appeared, broke the stick, and knocked Hyun Woo unconscious. Ga Min always
04:29believed that good health leads to good grades. Since third grade, he exercised every day. His uncle,
04:35who ran a martial arts school, wanted him to be the successor, but Ga Min just wanted to study. After
04:42being rescued, Si Hyun went home tired. His alcoholic father told him to learn welding after graduation
04:48and said college was a waste of money. One needed to have skills to be treated well. Si Hyun left
04:55home
04:55sadly. He had always been a top student. But following his father's orders, he gave up the
05:00top high school and went to technical school. No one, except Ga Min, understood or supported his dream
05:07of going to college. So he picked up his old mistake notebook and put them in Ga Min's desk. As
05:13Ga Min was
05:13about to thank him, a bench hit him. It turned out Hyun Woo found out he was the one wearing
05:18the mask.
05:19He picked up the notebook and set it on fire. Ga Min, desperate to save it, dodged Hyun Woo's attacks.
05:26Even so, he knocked Hyun Woo down. The notebook was ruined. He was furious and decided to fight Hyun Woo.
05:33After a few rounds, Hyun Woo fell to the ground, helpless. He was angry and desperate, throwing the
05:39burning backpack. Ga Min calmly kicked the backpack back into his arms. The 220th ranked loser defeated the
05:46top 10 fighter. The whole school was shocked. But he only wanted Hyun Woo to wake up and apologize to
05:53Si Hyun. Seeing his burned hand, Si Hyun angrily threw the notebook in the trash and agreed to join the
06:00study group. Just then, Ms. Lee rushed in and put out the burning backpack but it was too late.
06:06The inspector, who came to inspect the school, witnessed the fight and arson. The vice principal
06:11immediately identified Ga Min as the bully and decided to expel him. Ms. Lee bravely claimed the
06:16school was at fault. Ga Min had no choice because he was bullied and assaulted first.
06:21She bluntly stated that in this high school, kids had to use violence to protect themselves.
06:27The inspector recognized her as the top scorer on the teacher certification exam last year.
06:32But she didn't register, and the certification was canceled. He asked her how she planned to fix the
06:37school's problem. In a panic, Ms. Lee remembered Ga Min's idea of study groups and decided to push for
06:44it. The inspector seemed interested. The vice principal reluctantly agreed but added a condition.
06:50The study group had to reach five members within two weeks to be recognized as an official club.
06:56To make it happen, Ga Min and Si Hyun posted recruitment notices, but no one signed up. Meanwhile,
07:02rumors spread that Ga Min was a fire-breathing monster. A guy ranked third in combat power,
07:09didn't believe it, and ignored others' warnings to challenge him. Ga Min thought he was joining the
07:14study group and welcomed him, then turned to get the application form. The guy attacked, but he,
07:20only focused on finding the form, dodged every punch without effort. Seeing the form get crushed,
07:26he went to get a new one. The guy got knocked down by the locker door. Ga Min was confused
07:31and didn't
07:32know what happened, while Si Hyun was shocked. Students watching outside now saw him as a master who
07:38could beat anyone easily. The rumors spread further. Ga Min unknowingly created another legend. He became
07:45a terrifying figure to students ranked lower. No one dared to make eye contact with him. However,
07:51he wanted to find students loving study through eye contact. Sadly, no one seemed interested in learning.
07:58While complaining to Si Hyun, he saw an unusual boy walking toward him. Si Hyun explained that the boy was
08:05his middle school friend, Ji Hyun Yeop, who later went to study in the US. Ga Min rushed to him
08:11and
08:12sincerely invited him to join the study group. Ji Hyun Yeop mocked him, saying he didn't care about guys
08:18around him getting hurt, just to form a study group. With time running out, Si Hyun suggested he should play
08:24sports instead of studying. Ga Min knew he had athletic talent, but he just loved studying.
08:30Ms. Lee encouraged them by buying many study supplies and treating them to food. When she got
08:35home she found her door broken. Hyun Woo, covered in wounds, was inside. Earlier, he was punished by
08:42Pi Hyun Ul for losing to Ga Min. He was ordered to make Ms. Lee lose her job or he
08:47would die. At a critical
08:48moment the light suddenly went out. A guy rushed in, knocked everyone down, and helped her escape. In the
08:54elevator, the guy took off his hat. It was Ji Hyun Yeop. They had met on campus before. He pulled
09:00her into
09:01the parking lot. She tried to call the police using his phone, but a thug grabbed it. She then tried
09:06to stop
09:06the fight, but they even dared to attack a teacher. Ji Hyun Yeop fought off several, but was eventually beaten
09:12down by the group. Hyun Woo recognized him as the boy involved in a random murder case in middle school
09:18and ordered his men to beat him. He then aimed to attack Ms. Lee, but Ga Min suddenly appeared. He
09:25took
09:25off his glasses and fought them alone. He grabbed their sticks and chains, turned them into nunchucks,
09:32and knocked them all to the ground. Ji Hyun Yeop wanted to ask about the murder case, which seemed connected
09:38to
09:38his mom's death. To prevent things from getting worse, Ga Min stopped him, giving Hyun Woo a chance
09:44to escape. He tried to chase, but the pain in his belly stopped him. Before leaving, he advised Ms. Lee
09:50not to believe that bad guys would be fairly punished. He also warned Ga Min not to form a study
09:55group.
09:56Afterwards, Ms. Lee returned the legend of Bruce Lee to Ga Min. He had come because he had left the
10:02book
10:02with her. She hesitated about calling the police when someone rang the doorbell. It was one of the
10:08thugs. He knelt down, begging her to spare him, saying they were ordered by Pi Han Ul and would be
10:15killed if they disobeyed. She felt sorry for him and agreed to let him go if he answered her questions
10:21truthfully. The next day, someone sent a message saying they wanted to join the study group. Ga Min excitedly
10:28rushed to the other party's classroom, but quickly stepped back. There were all girls inside,
10:33and he had no idea who Ji Woo was. A curly-haired girl called Ji Woo's name. When Se Hyun
10:39saw her,
10:40he urged Ga Min to leave, as she was Hyun Woo's twin sister. Suddenly, chaos broke out in the classroom.
10:48Girls were bullying Ji Woo and her friend He Won. She mocked their study schedule, stomped on it and even
10:54spit gum on it. Ga Min quickly caught it and praised the schedule. Just then, Gu Jin from disciplinary
11:00department walked in, claiming Ji Woo was his girlfriend and threatening to punish her for
11:06talking to other boys. At that moment, Ga Min threw the gum at his face. A fight was about to
11:11break out.
11:12The teacher appeared and stopped them. But messing with the disciplinary department would bring endless
11:18trouble to the study group. Suddenly, He Won came here and admitted she submitted the application in
11:24Ji Woo's name, hoping they could protect Ji Woo from bullying. She was a transfer student who
11:29accidentally offended curly-haired girl and became her target. Ji Woo stood up for her,
11:34which made the girl resent her. In addition, her brother Hyun Woo lost something important while
11:40working part-time. Gu Jin agreed to lend him money, but ordered him steal it from a convenience store,
11:47recording the whole thing. Since then, he threatened Ji Woo with the video and became her boyfriend.
11:53He Won was about to move schools, so she begged the two to help her delete that video. See,
11:58Hyun was concerned because the video was in the disciplinary office. Hearing this, Ga Min still wasn't
12:04afraid. He hid in the office's locker and overheard that it was Gu Jin who had robbed Hyun Woo that
12:10night. He lent the stolen money back to Hyun Woo and recorded the whole thing to control him. The
12:16mastermind behind it all was Pai Han Ul. Meanwhile, Ms. Lee called him to the office and figured out what
12:23he had done. He didn't deny it and claimed she was the most interesting teacher he had met. On the
12:29other
12:29side, Ga Min decided to take action. Seeing the USB plugged into a computer, he let Gu Jin grab his
12:36legs on purpose, then slowly moved closer to the computer and took the USB. He got up, knocked
12:43Gu Jin down cleanly, but ran into three other guys. Outnumbered, he was pinned down but still held on
12:49tightly to the USB. The evil Gu Jin decided to upload the video online to ruin Hyun Woo's life.
12:56The two outside planned how to rescue Ga Min. Ji Woo, who was passing by, heard their plan and decided
13:03to
13:03join them. Suddenly, Ga Min kicked the door open, ran out with the computer, but he was tripped.
13:09The computer slid right to Se Hyun's feet. Ga Min blocked the chasing guys while Se Hyun ran to the
13:15rooftop with the computer. Gu Jin pressured him to hand over the computer. Seeing no one below,
13:21Se Hyun threw it down. Gu Jin was about to attack him, but Ji Woo showed up and easily defeated
13:27him.
13:28Afterward, a teacher took Ga Min away, and the USB fell to the ground. He Won noticed it and wanted
13:34to pick it up, but curly-haired girl snatched it and said she'd return it to Gu Jin. For the
13:39first time,
13:40the quiet He Won cursed and charged at the girl, taking back the USB. Ji Woo praised her courage and
13:46helped her up. At that moment, Hyun Woo appeared. Pi Han Ul had told him the truth earlier and given
13:52him a
13:52knife, tempting him to kill Gu Jin. In a crisis, Ms. Lee blocked the knife with her body. She had
13:58researched Hyun Woo's background and knew he lived with him to kill Gu Jin. To support her studies,
14:04he worked while attending school. Ms. Lee comforted him, saying she would help him. Ga Min quickly
14:10carried her to the hospital. Luckily, her injury wasn't serious. Ji Woo apologized to her on behalf
14:16of her brother. Ms. Lee used the opportunity to ask her to join the study group. He Won also
14:22decided not to transfer and wanted to join the group with her. Feeling the warmth, Ji Woo agreed to join.
14:29Meanwhile, Hyun Woo was sent to a juvenile center. Pi Han Ul was arrested by the police but was quickly
14:36released. The next day, someone downstairs shouted for a one-on-one with Ga Min. The news that
14:42disciplinary department was defeated caused a stir. Rumors quickly spread that Ga Min wanted to rule
14:48the whole school. The first to challenge him was Kang, the number one of the 11th grade. Ga Min didn't
14:54want to pay attention to him. But when he saw Lee Joon's application to join the study group being
14:59torn up, he jumped down and punched Kang to the ground. Lee Joon had loved fighting since childhood,
15:06but always lost. He thought his body was too weak. So he started training his lung capacity,
15:11wearing short sleeves in winter, but still got beaten. He thought he wasn't trying hard enough,
15:16so he worked out more, even in class or on the bus. The results were always the same. One day,
15:23he overheard that to get stronger, he should go to technical high school. He got hopeful and enrolled
15:29this school. There he learned many fighting skills, rising from a 173rd to 17th on the leaderboard.
15:36Since then, no matter how hard he tried, his ranking could no longer rise. After seeing Ga Min's
15:43duel with Hyun Woo, he wanted to join the study group. Ga Min refused, because he only wanted to
15:48improve his fight ranking. Lee Joon then said he would focus on studying. To test his determination,
15:55Ga Min gave him a test to finish before they returned. While he was taking the test seriously,
16:00a tattooed man suddenly barged in. He flipped through the book and mistook Lee Joon for Ga Min,
16:06telling him to follow him for another test. They went to a remote warehouse. The man said he was a
16:12scouter for the YB family, looking for backup fighters. Only the top three from each school
16:17could join the test. If Lee Joon defeated three guys and grabbed the car key on the hood,
16:22he would become a backup fighter and own the car. Meanwhile, everyone thought Lee Joon had run away.
16:28But after seeing the test paper, Ga Min realized something was wrong. It wasn't until Gaon Yeop
16:35showed up that they learned Lee Joon had been taken by the gang. The scouter soon realized he wasn't
16:40Ga Min and decided to punish him. At that moment, Ga Min appeared with his buddies. He held up the
16:46test
16:47paper, announcing Lee Joon had passed. Seeing poor Lee Joon, everyone was ready to fight. Ji Woo attacked
16:54first, with Gaon Yeop joining right after. Ga Min rolled up the paper and used the knowledge to
17:00defeat a knife-wielding guy. He then rushed at the scouter but was overpowered. Even when the three
17:06of them teamed up, they were badly beaten. Ga Min struggled to get up. He decided to show the
17:12dangerous technique his uncle forbade him from using. He used one-sided attack technique until the wall
17:19broke. Suddenly, a car started. Lee Joon instantly got up and pushed him aside. Ga Min reacted quickly,
17:27avoiding the danger. A hat guy got out of the car and invited him to join the YB family. He
17:32firmly
17:32refused, saying he only wanted to study and go to college. The hat guy then mocked Gaon Yeop,
17:39asking if he went to their school to pay condolences or if it was in the will. Gaon Yeop was
17:44enraged,
17:45and immediately chased him on his motorcycle. The police arrived and arrested the scouter and his
17:50men. Before leaving, the detective gave Ga Min a business card and thanked them for helping catch
17:56the gangsters. Back to base, the hat guy praised Ga Min's performance, calling him impressive.
18:02Pi Han Ul also gave a rare four-star rating. After experiencing life and death together,
18:08the five finally formed a study group. To motivate them, Ms. Lee decided to take them to visit another
18:14school's study group. The four dressed in their latest fashion and confidently walked through
18:19Seoul. With Ms. Lee's recommendation, they visited the top-ranked school, Manil Hai. Ga Min, confused,
18:27accidentally entered the notorious Manik Hai next door. While waiting, Lee Joon decided to play a game to
18:34ease the tension with the top students. One girl, however, acted arrogantly and seemed unwilling to talk to
18:40them. Ji Woo almost clashed with her. A boy explained that she acted aggressively because they were always
18:46bullied by evil guys from Manik Hai. Meanwhile, a top student was being blackmailed. Even if their
18:52parents called the police, they would face retaliation. Unaware, Ga Min walked into the building and was
18:59immediately surrounded by bullies. He punched away a flying fire extinguisher. A guy inside heard the noise
19:06and thought Ga Min was being beaten up. When he opened the door, he saw all his buddies lying on
19:11the ground. The boy, looking for money from his mom, saw Ga Min break in. At that moment, Se Hyon
19:19called
19:19and asked him to save the boy from Manik Hai. The boy quickly stood up, reminding him to leave fast.
19:26Just then, the strongest monster appeared. Ga Min calmly took off his glasses, then went full force,
19:33and knocked him down. He then took the boy back to Manil Hai, and they successfully exchanged study
19:39experience. Before leaving, the top students apologized sincerely. The boy pulled Ga Min aside and asked if
19:47he remembered him. They had been classmates in middle school. Back then, Ga Min had asked to join his study
19:53group but was mocked. He apologized for his arrogance and believed that Ga Min could become number one in the
20:00school, even in the country. Back at school, the study group finally got their own activity room.
20:06Though it was in poor condition, Ga Min remained optimistic and planned the layout. Together they
20:11cleaned the classroom, and it finally looked neat and tidy. Kim, the number one in grades, came over to
20:18provoke them, calling them brainless fools. Ga Min held back his anger and decided to beat him with good grades.
20:24Ms. Lee admired his courage but warned him not to be arrogant. She then analyzed their rankings.
20:29Except for Si Haiyan, who was second, the others were in the lower middle range.
20:34She encouraged them not to give up. They could do it if they did as she said from now on.
20:39After school, Lee Jun revealed that he saw Ms. Lee go to see the dean. She wanted a disciplinary
20:45meeting to punish Pi Han Uol. The dean doubted she could pull it off so he wanted to test her
20:50abilities
20:51first. If each member of the study group improved by ten ranks, he would agree to her proposal.
20:56So this midterm was not just a battle between students.
21:00Si Haiyan got a call and left in a hurry. His father shouted for him to come to the construction
21:05site. Feeling upset, he suddenly heard Hee Wan calling him. The two have a crush on each other.
21:11On the way, they ran into Kim and the curly-haired girl.
21:15Si Haiyan was used to being bullied and couldn't fight back. He could only watch as Kim took Hee Wan
21:20away.
21:20Just then, Ga Min arrived, knocked Kim down, and kicked away their phones.
21:26Si Haiyan felt ashamed that his crush saw his weakness. He left quietly. At home, as expected,
21:33his father scolded him. He ran outside and saw Ga Min waiting. Ga Min had heard their fight
21:39and told him to come home with him. Struggling with his pride, Si Haiyan refused and wandered off,
21:45only to be caught by Kim. But this time, he dodged every attack and even fought back. It turned out
21:52that Ga Min was secretly guiding him on the phone from nearby. For the first time, Sae Hyun enjoyed
21:58fighting back. Suddenly, Ga Min's phone died. Without help, Sae Hyun was at a disadvantage again.
22:05Ga Min rushed downstairs to save him, but saw him bravely stand up and punch Kim to the ground.
22:10Afterward, Ga Min took Sae Hyun home. It was past 11 pm. His mom, cold-faced, had been waiting outside.
22:18Seeing the blood on his friend, she demanded Ga Min to transfer schools the next day. She could
22:24accept his son's poor grades, but not him becoming a violent kid. Si Hyun thought his mom was just saying
22:30that, since transferring wasn't easy. But Ga Min knew she always meant what she said. The next day,
22:36she went to the principal's office to discuss transfer. Sae Hyun still had hope, thinking with
22:43Ga Min's poor grades, no school would accept him. But his mom decided to move to Seoul to find a
22:48school.
22:49To buy time, Hee Won stopped the car. Everyone tried their best to persuade his mom. She even lied,
22:55saying she had Ga Min's baby. But his mom ignored her and drove off. Ms. Lee arrived in a hurry
23:01but was too
23:01late. She chased after Ga Min with kids in her car. Suddenly, a group of motorcycles blocked the road.
23:08Their leader was Kang, who had lost to Ga Min not long ago. He knew that if Ga Min transferred,
23:15he could stay first in the combat power ranking. Lee Joon and Ji Woo got out of the car and
23:21fought with
23:21the group, defeating them to the ground. Then Lee Joon told them to go ahead, while he stayed behind,
23:27to block the attack. Ms. Lee knocked a motorcycle down and kept speeding forward. Ga Min's mom was
23:33talking to a real estate agent when they arrived. She and Ms. Lee had known each other for a long
23:38time.
23:39A year ago, Ms. Lee's mentor, Ms. Woo, passed away unexpectedly. Ga Min's mom told Ms. Lee that instead
23:46of staying in grief, she should use her strength to help students like Ms. Woo did. Ms. Lee took her
23:52advice
23:52and came to this school to protect kids from bullying and help them study. Ga Min even successfully formed
23:59a study group and made many friends. This made his mom feel guilty. She realized she had never expected
24:05much from her son, which might have hurt him. Just as she was about to agree, a new crisis came.
24:11Pai Han Ul learned that Ms. Lee had filed a petition to impeach him, so he sent men to deal
24:17with her.
24:17Ga Min was ready to fight, but the bat was kicked away by his mom, who was the director of
24:23Korean
24:23Taekwondo Association. She then worked with the kids to defeat them. Ms. Lee was about to call the police,
24:30when the hat guy suddenly shot at her. Ga Min rushed to grab the gun but was too late. To
24:35protect Ms. Lee,
24:36his mom was shot in the head and fell unconscious. In the hospital, Gae Eun Yap told him the truth,
24:42and warned him not to try to seek revenge on Pai Han Ul. Pai Han Ul had three bodyguards,
24:49Dae Chiol, Sun Chiol, and Min Chiol. They were very strong, no one could defeat them. Thinking of his
24:56injured mom, Ga Min still chose to go find him but was pinned to the ground by Sun Chiol. Before
25:02leaving,
25:03Pai Han Ul told them to leave Ga Min a breath of life. Ga Min stopped another two guys from
25:09leaving,
25:09wanting to defeat all three at once. In the next fight, he still lost. Lying on the ground,
25:15he heard his heart racing and remembered his uncle's teaching. At times like this, staying calm
25:21was the key. He slowly stood up, trying to steady his heartbeat. Then he used a forbidden move and
25:27fought back with all his strength, successfully defeating all three. Meanwhile, the vice principal
25:33scolded Ms. Lee for submitting a petition to the Education Bureau. As if the school was a
25:39gangster training ground. He asked her to apologize to all students and teachers. Ms. Lee calmly stood
25:46on stage, then firmly said, their school was not in a normal state now. She wanted to carry on her
25:52teacher's wish and turn it into an ordinary high school. The vice principal rushed up and knocked away
25:58the microphone. Meanwhile, Ga Min kicked open the door and punched Pai Han Ul. Pai Han Ul fought back
26:05without hesitation. Ga Min told him he was just an ordinary person too, getting hit hurts, so he should
26:12stop acting so cocky. After being provoked, the hat guy suggested him to deal with Ga Min immediately.
26:18Pai Han Ul made a call and recommended his bodyguard, Sun Chaol. At that moment, Sun Chaol was at the
26:25hospital
26:25taking care of his grandfather. His grandfather hoped he would become a good person. So in his free time,
26:31Sun Chaol always studied hard. He ran into Ga Min, who was visiting his injured mom. When he knew why
26:38Ga Min wanted revenge, he understood his feelings. Ga Min asked why he obeyed Pai Han Ul when he clearly
26:45wanted to study. Sun Chaol mocked him, saying studying wouldn't guarantee a good job. But serving Pai Han Ul
26:52could get a direct job in the YB family. Just then, Daechiol called and told him to hide. Right after,
26:59two fighter trainers arrived. Sun Chaol immediately acted respectful. He even pushed Ga Min aside,
27:06pretending not to know him. The two then escorted him away. The next day the news reported that a 40
27:12-year-old
27:13man was stabbed to death. The suspect was Sun Chaol. The detective asked Ga Min if he saw Sun Chaol
27:19at the
27:20hospital last night. Ga Min admitted, but didn't mention that gangsters took him away. After school,
27:26he felt down. Si Hyun noticed and knew he didn't believe Sun Chaol was the killer. The study group
27:32held an emergency meeting. Si Hyun found that since Pai Han Ul enrolled, high school student crime rates
27:38increased, while adult crime rates dropped. Students got lighter sentences due to their ages and could get
27:44parole in a few years. In return they joined the gang after release and became YB family members. Now,
27:51they just needed proof that Sun Chaol didn't kill. That night, on his way home, Ga Min met Daechiol,
27:58who said Sun Chaol was not the killer. The fighter trainer chased after him, planning to punish him.
28:04Ga Min couldn't ignore it. He took off his glasses and knocked him out with a punch. Daechiol revealed he
28:11saw a gang official cleaning a bloody knife. It was an open secret in the gang that the officials killed,
28:16and the backup fighters served time instead. Ga Min shared the news with the study group.
28:23Ji Woo worried he was being used, but he believed Sun Chaol wasn't a killer because his eyes showed a
28:29desire to study. The four decided to trust his judgment and planned to find the murder weapon
28:34to save Sun Chaol. Ga Min and his buddies put on borrowed uniforms and sneaked into the YB family.
28:41Ji Hyun and Hee Won stayed outside, using a drone to provide information. But today was the gang's
28:48general meeting and Pi Han Ul would also attend. To avoid him, the three ran away. Ga Min got separated
28:56from the two and hid on the rooftop. The fighter trainer heard a noise and went upstairs to check.
29:02After he left, Ga Min found the door was locked. Meanwhile, Lee Jun's identity was exposed. He chose to
29:09fight alone while Ji Woo searched for evidence. She found the murder weapon in an office drawer.
29:15As she was leaving, she heard footsteps and hid in the desk. But the trainer had already noticed her.
29:21Meanwhile, Lee Jun was in a fierce fight. He was cut in several places but still defeated the guy.
29:28Ji Woo was also in danger. The trainers attacked her from both sides and knocked her out. Meanwhile,
29:34Ga Min was trying to find a way to leave when he got a call from Ms. Lee. He quickly
29:39took out his
29:40mistake notebook but accidentally dropped it on the gang official. Just then, he saw the trainers
29:45carrying away the unconscious Ji Woo. He hung up in a hurry and kicked the door non-stop. Suddenly,
29:53Hee Won lost control of the drone. The hat guy appeared and destroyed it. They completely lost contact with the
29:59three. At the crucial moment, Sun Cheol blocked the car. The trainer mocked him, saying he shouldn't
30:05be here. It turned out Sun Cheol was asked to take the fall for the gang official. Pi Han Ul
30:11promised
30:11to hire the best lawyer and pay for his grandpa's treatment. Then, he gave Sun Cheol a lawyer's card
30:17and threw his wordbook into the trash. So, Sun Cheol admitted the crime as ordered. But when the
30:23detective asked about murder details, his statement was full of mistakes. The detective knew he was
30:29not the real killer and persuaded him not to give up his life so easily. Thinking of his grandpa and
30:35kind Ga Min, Sun Cheol decided not to go along with Pi Han Ul anymore and persuaded him not to
30:42give up his life so easily. His buddies arrived. Ji Woo also woke up, grabbed the knife, and joined the
30:49fight. But the trainer was too strong. Even together, they couldn't win, until Ga Min appeared with
30:55nunchucks. The trainer tore open his shirt, showing his scars, and fought him in close combat,
31:01knocking him to the ground. He mocked everyone as his defeated opponent. The next moment, Ga Min stood
31:08up unharmed and mocked his weak power. They fought again. And Ga Min used his uncle's forbidden technique,
31:14number four, zero-inch punch, to send him flying. Afterward, he helped Sun Cheol up and invited him back to
31:21school and study together. Sun Cheol was unsure if he could be an ordinary student again. Meanwhile,
31:27the trainer still tried to pick up the knife. Ji Woo quickly kicked it away, and told Sun Cheol not
31:33to
31:33overthink it, just, study. Then, they heard shouting. Se Hyun and Hee Won arrived fully armed to help,
31:41making everyone laugh. Suddenly, Ga Min remembered his mistake notebook, and quickly got up to chase the
31:48gang official. At that moment, the detective stopped him, knowing he was the real killer.
31:53The official pulled out a hidden weapon, but Ga Min knocked him out first. The bad guys were punished.
31:59The study group was getting ready for the life-changing midterm. After the exam,
32:03they excitedly checked answers with Se Hyun. Ga Min was upset, noticing his answers were different from
32:10theirs. Ga Min's mom, who had just been discharged from the hospital, called Ms. Lee to ask where Ga Min
32:16was.
32:17Ms. Lee reassured her not to worry, saying he was out having fun with his friends. His mom explained
32:23that he always got down before his grades came out. He even couldn't focus on anything or control his
32:29strength. His friends noticed something was wrong and took turns talking to him. Se Hyun said water only
32:35turns into steam when it reaches the boiling point, and before that, it looks unchanged. Learning is the
32:42same. If Ga Min kept putting in effort, big changes will come one day. Hearing this, Ga Min felt
32:48enlightened, and stopped being unhappy. Suddenly, Dae Chaol called him. Sun Chaol's grandfather was in
32:55critical condition, but he still insisted on taking the exam. Sun Chaol rushed to the hospital, but was
33:02stopped by gangsters. When he finally arrived, bruised and battered, he saw Ga Min helping his grandfather
33:08take the Toyik exam. It was his lifelong wish. Later, the study group attended his funeral.
33:15Ga Min remembered his words. He had to show Sun Chaol the joy of learning. He told the grandfather that
33:20Sun Chaol had found happiness in studying. Sun Chaol opened the wordbook his grandfather left behind,
33:27thanked Ga Min for fulfilling his last wish, and for saving him from despair. Soon, the mid-term results
33:34came out. Se Hyun ranked first, and the others improved as well. The biggest surprise was Ga Min.
33:41He moved up from 219th to 209th place. Ms. Lee took the report card to the dean. He kept his
33:48promise,
33:49and held a disciplinary meeting for Pi Han-ul. On duty, Sun Chaol stopped Pi Han-ul's car and told
33:55him to
33:56walk in as per school rules. He got out of the car reluctantly, then glared at the study group,
34:02full of rage. Giang Yeop asked Ms. Lee to cancel the meeting. She was alone against Pi Han-ul's power,
34:09and could get hurt. It turned out that Ms. Wu, who had died, was Giang Yeop's mother. A year ago,
34:16she pushed for the disciplinary meeting Pi Han-ul and others to clean up the school. However,
34:21a man in black killed her that night. Everyone suspected Pi Han-ul, but a backup fighter took the
34:27fall for him. Giang Yeop feared Ms. Lee would meet the same fate, but she refused to bow to evil.
34:33No matter how hard it got, she would fulfill Ms. Wu's wish. Meanwhile, Pi Han-ul promised his father
34:39he would handle this crisis, just like last time. Soon, a video edited to slander the study group for
34:46theft and violence appeared online. The study group became the rogue group. The vice principal wanted to
34:52hold a disciplinary meeting to punish them and fire Ms. Lee, unless she withdrew the charges against
34:57Pi Han-ul. Ms. Lee told kids their kindness was not wrong, and she didn't blame them. But until the
35:04truth came out, they must ignore all provocation, especially Ga-min. She would fix everything.
35:10Suddenly, students in the hallway started attacking each other for no reason. Pi Han-ul offered a reward.
35:16Anyone who raised their ranking within an hour would get one million won. Even Se-hyeon's old friend
35:22attacked him. He felt sad and confused, wondering if they could really change the school. Suddenly,
35:28he got a call and rushed to the construction site. Ga-min also received a message and ran to the
35:34activity room. Pi Han-ul and his men had smashed everything, destroying their hard work. He clenched his
35:40fists, wanting to fight, but Hee-wan stopped him and told him to endure it. Meanwhile,
35:45Se-hyeon saw his father fighting with workers, shouting that his son was not a rogue. It was the
35:51first time he heard his father defend him. Feeling powerless and guilty, he promised to quit school
35:57and start working at the site the next day. Hee-won's parents also took her home and forbade her from
36:02seeing the study group. Lee-jun, unaware of everything, kept texting for updates. Ga-min was about to reply,
36:09when he saw Se-hyeon leave the group chat. His mother noticed he was upset and asked what happened.
36:14He said the study group was about to disband. To comfort him, she revealed that she allowed him
36:19to continue in this school because she saw how happy he was with his friends. He then remembered
36:25the good times they had together and felt motivated again. He cleaned up the activity room, then went to
36:30the site to work with Se-hyeon. Se-hyeon told him to go back, but Ga-min only said he
36:35wanted to go to
36:36college with him. Se-hyeon was moved by his determination again. He knelt and begged his
36:42father to let him stay in school. He promised that in three years, he would get into the best university
36:48and give his father a better life. Ga-min also vowed that one day, Se-hyeon would own the building.
36:55Then, they went to Hee-won's house and convinced her parents with Se-hyeon's top grades and a basket
37:01of blueberries. Next, they found Ji-woo at the convenience store and brought her back. Lee-jun was
37:08thrilled when he saw Se-hyeon rejoin the group chat. The next day, the study group returned to
37:13school for a final showdown with Pi-han-ul. Meanwhile, Ms. Lee refused to drop the charges
37:20against Pi-han-ul and insisted the disciplinary meeting go as planned. The detective advised her
37:26not to go to school. They couldn't predict what Pi-han-ul might do, but she refused to back down.
37:31The day before the disciplinary meeting, the vice principal asked Ms. Lee to come to school.
37:36He decided to tell her about illegal deals between the gang and the school. The detective sensed
37:41danger and warned her not to go, but Ms. Lee insisted on being bait to get evidence. The
37:46conversation between the two began. She took out her phone to record. The vice principal openly said
37:51the school was Pi-han-ul's kingdom, training gangster member and laundering money. He admired her bravery.
37:58Suddenly, all the lights went out and he quickly ran away. Ms. Lee stepped into the hallway to check,
38:04but was surrounded by Pi-han-ul and three others. She warned them that the police would come soon.
38:10She had secretly installed a recorder in her button. The detective had promised to rescue
38:15her if she didn't come out in 30 minutes, but he was attacked. Pi-han-ul threatened her, saying,
38:21Ms. Wu's death was not just a rumor. Just then, the school's PA system suddenly blared.
38:27He-won cursed evil guys again. Meanwhile, Jae-myung appeared with his four friends.
38:34They had been secretly watching Ms. Lee, worried for her safety. When they learned she was meeting
38:39the vice principal, they set up an ambush. Ga-min asked Lee-jun to take Ms. Lee away and protect
38:45her.
38:46He was in charge of dealing with Pi-han-ul. Ji-woo and Soon-chi-ol took on the other
38:51two.
38:51Sae-hyeon was responsible for dealing with the hat guy. Lee-jun was in charge of handling the gang
38:57member, Auntie. They used to be childhood friends, but later, Auntie became Pi-han-ul's lackey. Ms. Lee
39:04needed to escape and hand over the evidence to the police. From the first to the fourth floor,
39:09all four of them fought their own opponents, but were all at a disadvantage. Ji-woo was the first to
39:15fight back, but couldn't beat the chubby guy. She teamed up with Sun-chi-ol, turning the fight into
39:21two against two. In the end, they turned the tables and won.
39:26Si-hyeon was chased and shot at by the hat guy until he ran out of bullets. Then he stepped
39:31up
39:31to fight back. Before that, he learned combat skills from Ga-min's mom. First, he needed to take the hits,
39:38but never gave up. When the guy got tired, he focused on attacking his weak points. In the end,
39:44he won with an uppercut. Lee-jun pulled out the knife from his chest and took down Anti with a
39:50swift
39:50attack. The others had already won, leaving only the strongest, Pi-han-ul and Ga-min. Ga-min was
39:57knocked down many times. Pi-han-ul mocked him, saying he could change nothing and couldn't save Ms. Lee.
40:05Hearing that Ms. Lee was in danger, Ga-min struggled up and used his ultimate technique to defeat Pi-han
40:11-ul.
40:12Meanwhile, Ms. Lee, who had escaped, was blocked by gang members. She clutched the recorder helplessly
40:19until she heard He-hyeon's voice. Behind her stood the students she had convinced to protect the
40:25teacher. A fight was about to break out. The next day, Ms. Lee successfully held the disciplinary
40:31meeting. Pi-han-ul was expelled. With Ms. Lee's recording, he was also arrested for killing Ms.
40:37Wu. The vice principal, who covered for him, was punished too. Everything was settled. Ms. Lee fulfilled
40:44Ms. Wu's wish, turning the school into a proper one. Hyun-woo was released early for turning his life
40:50around and reconciled with his sister. The study group's story wasn't over. Their final exams were
40:56coming, and new challenges awaited.
