14TH PYRAMID GAME RESULTS

COUNTING VOTES

SEONG SU-JI 5 VOTES

What

Why am I a C?

Five votes?

Then what about Ja-eun?

MYEONG JA-EUN 2 VOTES

Someone voted for us.

But who?

What is it?

PYO JI-AE 0 VOTES

Why is Ji-ae an F?

This wasn't the plan.

That means

PYO JI-AE 0 VOTES

Not me or Ja-eun, but Ji-ae?

SEONG SU-JI 5 VOTES

Who voted for me?

I don't know what's going on

but for now

This is good.

You and I got out of it.

But why

Why Ji-ae

-What happened?

-It's obvious, isn't it?

She had a falling

out with her bestie.

That must've been the reason.

Did Da-yeon rough you up a lot?

I'm so mad.

This is the Fs fault!

One of them realized

that even best friends

can turn on each other.

I told you it'd be easy

to come between them.

To sum up,

Seung-ie got herself new friends.

And Ji-ae lost her only friend.

RECOUNTING VOTES

Seung-ie.

You didn't vote for me?

She crossed the line.

Myeong Ja-eun got two votes?

Since when did she play?

She must've gotten ideas

because of the new girl.

What should we do

about this, Ha-rin?

Wu-ie, what are

you talking about?

Why are you asking me?

Huh?

Seung-ie, how could

you do this to me

Seung, come on.

We're going to the restroom.

You're talking to an F?

No.

What can we do

to help Ji-ae?

Any ideas?

If the three of us

refuse to play

-You liar.

-What?

I have a rough idea

of who you are now.

You're

You're trying to pull out,

aren't you?

Stop trying to come up with

an excuse. I know you.

You don't care anymore,

is that it?

She can be smart

when she wants to be.

You know,

I'm not a good person like you.

I'm very ordinary.

This game? I wouldn't have

even cared if I hadn't been an F.

So, why should I help her?

You're an F!

Don't talk to her.

Let's go.

She was self-centered

and so am I.

That's not a crime.

You said you wanted

to destroy the game.

Everything you just said

is an excuse.

Making excuses won't change

a thing. I know.

Keep your promise, Su-ji.

You said

you wanted to change this class.

Ja-eun. I'm sorry.

Things are different for me now.

I'm

no longer an F.

EPISODE 3

Congratulations, Su-Ji.

I know it was rough.

Even though it wasn't your fault.

That won't happen again.

I'll help you out this time.

Help me?

No, wait. I'm a C.

My rank is a C now.

It doesn't matter if she's

the ringleader or a psycho.

I don't have to be

hostile to her anymore.

Thanks.

I feel much better hearing that

from someone who's always an A.

You're the first person

who jumped up two levels

from an F.

Damn, I got an F all over my shoe.

Thanks.

Stop it, Da-yeon.

Do-ah

Did you forget the rules?

Hazing the F starts the day

after the vote.

Recess is over.

Go back to your seats.

I'm paying you back.

That'll be 2,200 won.

This one is five minutes past.

PYRAMID GAME

This is Yu-rim. I'm inviting

you to the B-D group chat.

Want to go to school

together tomorrow?

Morons.

School friends?

Just classmates.

Thanks for the invite.

Girls like this are

sneaky and selfish.

But starting today,

I'm no different.

Why?

Because it's safer that way.

Then, who is in danger

instead of you?

Hello.

Wow, it's Su-ji. Congrats

on joining the group chat.

Actually, I've been wanting

to be friends with you.

"A guilty conscience

pricks the mind."

That's how the saying goes.

Who said it was because

a guilty conscience

is shaped like a triangle?

But for some guilty consciences

the pointy ends are so worn down

that they became a circle.

So it doesn't hurt

even if you're pricked by one.

Su-ji, hi!

We said hi on the group

chat yesterday.

Your bangs are so cute.

Where did you get your hair done?

I'm sorry about

the other time.

Let's make up.

You're not the type

who holds a grudge, are you?

F, who are you going

to vote for today?

Hey, F!

It's okay, I was an F then.

Wow, Su-ji, you're more

easy-going than I thought.

I know. So cool!

Totally my style.

What are you looking at?

Oh, Ha-rin?

I heard she's not

coming to school today.

Oh

SKY HOUSE

Come play with us!

Show me your hand.

SKY HOUSE & BAEKYEON GROUP

PATRONAGE DAY

Thank you.

Thank you.

What's your name?

It's Ah-yeon.

Oh, what a pretty name.

Ha-rin.

Doesn't she look just like you

when you were little?

What do you think?

I don't know, Mother

Excuse me, I have some

business to take care of.

So foolish!

At work and at home.

Ha-rin is so much prettier.

I'm not saying that

just because she's my daughter.

She is pretty.

That's why I renovated

the entire school

to be ultra-modern

as a gift when she started!

That school is yours

until the day you graduate.

Do everything she wants for her.

That's why I made you

the director of that school.

Of course.

I'll take very good care of her.

I love you, Grandma.

I love the school.

BAEKYEON GIRLS' HIGH SCHOOL

Oh, hey Su-ji.

-Hi.

-Hi.

Oh, you go ahead.

Thanks.

Su-ji, that time I

f*ck off.

SEONG SU-JI 5 VOTES,

MYEONG JA-EUN?

MYEONG JA-EUN 2 VOTES,

SEONG SU-JI?

How's school?

-Are things okay?

-Yes, I moved up a level.

In the mock SAT test.

I think I'll be able to

maintain my level in school too.

Grades aren't everything,

you know.

Schools

Are a smaller version of society.

Yes.

So be good.

And if a problem arises

work it out and get through it

instead of trying to avoid it.

No, Dad.

I'm going to avoid it.

I'm going to do all that I can

to avoid it.

What are you doing?

What's so funny?

Ha-rin, listen to this. It's

When you see the others

watching you get bullied,

don't you just want to

dig their eyes out?

They'll never know

the look in their eyes

when they look at the F.

What is that?

Are you not friends

with Ja-eun anymore?

That's too bad.

I voted for you two.

You voted for me?

-Why?

-Just because.

You don't believe me?

Then who among the lower ranks

do you think voted for you?

Let's say you did.

Why did you help me?

Is there something you want?

Wow, quick reaction.

You're funny.

Something I want?

I'm not sure.

Not really.

Ye-rim.

What's taking so long?

What are you doing with her?

Me? I'm a C like you.

Just kidding.

Anyway, thanks, Ye-rim.

She's not wrong.

The lower ranks have to give

any remaining votes to As or Bs

in order to keep the others

of similar rank in check.

Forget about the lower ranks.

Who among the As or Bs

would vote for me?

And why?

I'll get going then.

It almost flew off.

Let's move if you're done.

In the second semester

landscapes will count for 50,

and emoji designs another 50

for a total of 100.

You all know this, right?

Landscapes will be

relatively evaluated by you.

What's this?

With full marks being 50,

deduct five points each

to 45, 40, with 30

being the lowest score.

I'll be grading

based on your evaluations.

Focus on composition

and presentation.

Class rep, hand these out.

You'll be more at ease

without me around, right?

Mark them and bring it

to the office later.

Be good.

ART CLASS (LANDSCAPES) GRADES

You want the students

to evaluate each other?

Ha-rin wanted me

to give you this.

Baek Ha-rin

BAEK HA-RIN 50

Mr. Im said this was

a relative evaluation,

but why don't we go

stand by the score

that we think we should get?

What?

What's going on?

Let's go.

Come on.

I'm a 35

But this is included

in our school grade

Hey.

Come on, we're 45.

But Yu-rim,

aren't you on an art scholarship?

Huh?

No, this is where she should be.

We all promised.

This is where we all should be.

Right?

Ye-rim, what do you think

you're doing?

You think Cho Yu-rim's

drawing is good?

Yu-rim, say something.

Is that what you think too?

She does.

No.

I should be here.

Liar.

Wait a sec.

Cho Yu-rim, Ra Hae-jun are Ds.

Park Ji-Young is a C.

Im Ye-rim, Jeong Yeon-du are Bs.

Baek Ha-rin, A.

They're standing by rank.

A, B,

C,

D,

F.

Su-ji.

Don't just stand there.

Come over here.

How much does the ranks

the pyramid, affect this class?

Nobody is threatening them

with a knife,

but they're willingly tanking

their school grades over this?

How bizarre.

So bizarre.

Am I really okay with this?

Woah, I was almost late.

Hi.

We'll now being

the 15th Pyramid Game.

SEONG SU-JI 0 VOTES

SEONG SU-JI 5 VOTES

I'm not okay.

I need to know

where I got the four votes.

IN CHARGE OF HANDING IN PAPERS

SEONG SU-JI

Guys, hang on a sec.

I have a suggestion to make.

The good thing about

getting a higher rank

is that it makes it possible

to stir things up.

This voting system with the app

Don't you think it's

a little weird?

What? What are you

suddenly talking about?

What's weird about it?

Are you just being a troll?

You never thought

there was something off about it?

Not even once?

I heard the results

were almost always the same.

Especially with the As.

Am I the only one

who thinks it's weird?

You never suspected

that it could be tampered with?

Wait, Su-ji.

The app is totally reliable.

I made the app myself.

If anyone tries something,

it shuts down immediately.

Well,

what if you're a part of it too

as the developer?

How can we trust it?

Do you have any proof that

it's never been tampered with?

-OMG!

-How about we vote the old way?

We can write down the five names

we voted for in the 14th game

and count them to make sure.

Of course, it'll be anonymous.

I'm in.

Ye-won, what about you?

Okay, fine.

You're accusing my baby

of being tampered with?

Su-ji, I'm disappointed in you.

You've insulted me.

If it was rigged, would I be a D?

Fine, let's do it.

Sounds fun.

If it's anonymous

Honestly,

I did have my doubts.

How can I be a D?

Everyone thinks you're a D.

I'll count the votes then.

SHIM EUN-JEONG.

JEONG YEONG-DU,

MYEONG JA-EUN,

SEONG SU-JI, BAEK HA-RIN

Hey, it's exactly the same.

Wow, so lame.

Su-ju was just trolling?

See?

My baby is totally innocent.

Yeah, I'm sorry I doubted it.

I apologize.

Thanks for

participating everyone.

I'm on my way to

the teacher's office.

Did everyone hand

in their assignments?

You all did, right?

Then, I'm handing them in.

There was no twist after all.

This isn't a movie.

It's real life.

BAEK HA-RIN, KIM DA-YEON,

SEO DO-AH, BANG WU-IE, GU SEOL-HA

SHIM EUN-JEONG, JEONG YEON-DU,

MYEONG JA-EUN,

SEONG SU-JI, BAEK HA-RIN

You all did, right?

Then, I'm handing them in.

If I compare the handwriting,

I'll be able to figure out

who voted for whom.

KIM DA-YEON, BANG WU-IE

BAEK HA-RIN

I expected as much,

but these three

really voted for me?

I'm no longer an F

because it's what Ha-rin wanted?

If that psycho changes her mind,

I can always become an F again.

Damn it.

There's no guarantee they'll

vote for me again

in the next game.

What about Ye-rim?

She really voted for me

and Ja-eun this time.

She could vote for me again.

Yeah right.

Draw some dimples too.

Wow, so pretty.

Ji-ae, you are too cute.

Good girl.

That's right. Good girl.

Eat up.

-This?

-Animals can't talk.

That's enough.

That idiot.

She just can't stay out of it.

Unbelievable.

What do you think you're doing?

You're a D now, is that it?

Da-yeon, what do you

want me to do?

Ja-eun, Myeong Ja-eun

Do you want to take her place?

You instead of Ji-ae.

You do whatever you want.

Give it to me.

Ja-eun, don't.

You can't do this to her.

Apologize.

Now.

BAEK HA-RIN

Oops, I missed.

I was aiming for Ja-eun.

I'm sorry, Ha-rin.

Are you okay?

I'm really sorry.

Why are you butting in,

you dummy?

You're too nice for

your own good.

-Crazy b*tch, are you insane?

-Are you talking about yourself?

Do I still look like an F to you?

Yeah, so? I'm a B.

Only As or those with their

permission can mess with Fs.

Those are your rules.

And as you can see, I'm not an F.

And you're not an A, Wu-ie.

Let her go, Wu-ie.

Su-ji said it was a mistake

and apologized.

Let her go.

You're pretty smart, Su-ji.

Yes, I am.

And Ja-eun,

-I'll keep my promise.

-Promise?

Ja-eun and I agreed

not to bully the F,

I mean, Ji-ae.

Oh, is that okay?

Everyone seems to take

cues from you.

You must've gotten

the wrong idea.

There's no need to ask me.

I'm just one of the 25.

And you're one of us.

I'm not the one who judges you.

The game does.

Girls, I'm putting up

the literature

What's with this mood?

Is something going on?

I'll put it up on the board.

Are you fighting?

No, we were just

in the middle of a game.

Next time,

just ask me to come.

You don't need to come here

during recess or lunch time.

All the other teachers do that.

Good luck, Su-ji.

Thanks, Da-yeon.

Damn it.

Oh.

Hey, give me your number.

Ah, it's been a while

since I've acted on impulse.

I had a feeling you'd be here.

I was wondering if you're okay.

Su-ji, if you're forcing

yourself to keep

your promise because of me

Do you have an overinflated ego?

I thought you knew me.

You think I'm someone

who'd do this for you?

I'm doing this for me.

Ha-rin voted for me.

Ha-rin?

-How did you know?

-You don't need to know how.

I've concluded

I'd rather destroy

the game then

end up as an F again

while getting jerked around

by that psycho.

So, this is just a deal.

Let's do this.

For real this time.

What's Ji-ae doing?

Stop crying.

That's enough.

We've had it just as bad as you.

What? I'm not like you!

This was the first time anything

like this ever happened to me.

I was so scared.

My best friend betrayed me,

and I practically lost it.

How could Seung-ie do this to me?

But you!

How can you be so mean

to someone crying?

Don't you know how

to relate at all?

Are you some kind of sociopath?

You know, I feel sorry for you.

Seung-ie is a total b*tch.

I don't want to ignore what

Da-yeon was doing it to him.

Best friends should

try to understand

Come to think of it, betrayal

is written all over her face.

If she had been born 100 years

ago, she'd have betrayed

She's mental, scum. She's like

the devil, sneaky as hell.

Okay, that's enough.

Then, should we keep talking?

-Su-ji.

-What?

You're so weird.

The class wasn't always this way.

There were more well-to-do

girls than most,

but the class atmosphere itself

was pretty ordinary.

But then

1 YEAR AGO

Class rep, we're bored.

How about we all play a game?

That's how it all started.

Kim Da-yeon?

Not Baek Ha-rin?

Ha-rin?

No, Ha-rin did nothing

She just looked on.

Vote for the girls

you felt grateful

for during the past month.

The girls who get the most votes

will get a small benefit.

Not being on class duty

during exam periods.

Getting to choose the order

of performance assessments.

Getting to eat first

during lunch.

The benefits gradually changed.

It's Day 1 today.

Oh no.

Poor thing.

-Are you okay? If you curl up

-Stop being such a pain!

I'm sorry.

The benefit to look down on girls

who were of a lower rank.

That's when the mood shifted.

There was discrimination,

and violence

Hang on a sec.

These weren't the rules

to begin with,

but it evolved as you went?

Huh?

Oh, yeah, just naturally.

Being a monster rubs off.

"Being a monster rubs off."

Anyway, for a while

in the beginning,

you could bully anyone if they

were a lower rank than you.

And then

The rank F was created.

What are you staring at?

Hey, F!

I'm sorry about swearing

at you earlier.

I apologized, okay?

The rule was made

that Fs were outcasts

and could only be bullied by As

or those with their permission.

There were no restrictions

about leaving a mark back then.

So, who was it?

CHO WU-RI 0 VOTES

Cho Wu-ri?

She's the one who was always

the F in your sophomore year?

What happened to her?

I don't know.

I don't think she was an F when

she moved up to the 11th grade.

But she dropped out a few months

before summer break.

YOUNGER SISTER

That's why they reassigned

the class numbers?

To delete she existed.

The video you showed me

You got it from

someone too, right?

I'm sorry I didn't thank

you earlier.

I heard you're the one

who sent it to Ja-eun.

The video.

That's an edited version.

Only the As have the original.

Why did you help me?

"The highest form of penalty

will be applied

if the game is disclosed."

Why do you think

that condition was added?

For justification?

Not that it does any good.

You guys do whatever

you want anyway.

You're right.

I just thought

the justification was weak.

And I didn't want to see anyone

else's clothes get ripped off

just for that justification.

That's why you tried to keep me

away from the homeroom teacher?

Then what about during

the written vote?

You know I took them.

I did think it was careless.

I knew you wouldn't mention it

to anyone.

I heard you're the one who

came up with the rules for Fs.

Stopping when the bell rings.

That's to stop it from getting

out of hand.

Hazing begins the day

after the vote.

That's to prevent the F

from getting hurt too much

since everyone is too

worked up on that day.

-So?

-Will you help me?

I want to form an

alliance with the Ds.

Of course I'll help out

with the school board.

Principal Im will feel at ease

with you in charge.

Do-ah cares about

Ha-rin very much.

We parents should help

out in anyway we can

so that the girls

can build up trust.

They'll be friends

for life after all.

This time

You're really sloppy.

I must have overestimated you.

-What?

-Why do you think I'll help you?

I don't have a reason to change.

And I have no intention

of undermining my position,

my power, or my relationships

based on mutual trust.

The rules?

The rules are there

to protect myself.

I don't ever leave

the circle I drew around myself.

That's my rule.

Rules, rules.

Rules are all you care about?

So you're saying

you won't help me?

-Ever?

-Ever.

You should be more careful.

An alliance with other Ds?

How many Ds do you think

have no connection

to the upper ranks?

I'm not sure if you'll be able

to convince them so easily.

After all, compared

to the upper ranks,

you don't have a lot

to offer the Ds.

How many Ds do you think

have no connection

to the upper ranks?

That means there are a few.

What? I thought she wasn't

going to help.

The one girl who was opposed

to the game in the past.

Maybe she was talking

about herself?

Hey, Do-ah.

What, those two?

What were they doing together?

She's a D, right?

Her family

owns Palm New Chemistry?

Yes, I heard in the restroom.

Stop pushing.

PALM NEW CHEMISTRY

QB GROUP ACQUIRES

PALM NEW CHEMISTRY

LOOKING FORWARD TO SYNERGY

-So this is why.

-Huh?

I've been thinking

it was strange.

Why were the girls not

in the upper ranks

going along with the game?

They can't fight back because of

how their parents are connected.

The new girl.

What was her name?

Seong Su-ji?

Eun-jeong,

I know you couldn't care less

about other people

but try to learn her

name at least.

She's in our class.

You like her, don't you?

I can tell.

She's different.

Who else would provoke

Ha-rin like that?

Stop.

Just ignore her.

What?

Are you jealous?

Geez, are you nuts?

Oh my god.

You scared me.

You totally scared me.

I've never been here before

on a day off.

No one else is here. It feels

like we rented out the place.

Well, it is yours anyway.

I told you not to

talk about that, Yeon-du.

What brings you here?

I dropped by

on my way to clubbing with her.

Did you hear that our next

meeting is in Kota Kinabalu?

A night on a yacht.

With our parents.

Where's the fun in that?

Can you get to the point?

I need to study.

Such a straight-A student.

You do know that only

you, me, and Ha-rin

will last after graduation?

The other relationships

won't last.

We can't betray each other.

Whether you and I like it or not,

we have to see

Ha-rin our whole lives.

You're right. We'll never

be out of each other's lives.

-Exactly.

-But I'm not like you.

I don't play the game

because I want to.

I'm only doing what I can.

Thinking about it

makes me so mad again.

Always acting all snooty

and neutral.

You picked her

to be the game host

and she thinks

she's something.

Seo Do-ah better not betray us.

I'll make her regret it.

-Wu-ie.

-Yes?

Do you want me to

buy you this painting?

This?

Looks super expensive.

You have to do

something for me though.

What is it?

I'm happy to do anything for you.

Then

Can you please

know your place?

Wu-ie, all her life,

Do-has been taught

to hold on to the power she has,

and her position

and the connections

based on trust.

Do you know what that means?

I overstepped.

I crossed the line.

Why would Do-ah betray you?

You and her are friends.

Friends?

Is that what a friend is?

-A game?

-Yes.

1 YEAR AGO

I want a hierarchy in the class.

Like a pyramid.

Doesn't it sound fun?

We could decide our ranks

through a game.

Do-ah, what do you think?

Do you want to go ask your dad?

You're a good girl who always

listens to her dad, aren't you?

How are you going

to destroy the game?

With an alliance of Ds.

We can use the

desire to level up.

We'll get the Ds together

and make them all a C.

What? Me a C?

That got you interested, right?

That's the desire to move up.

No human is immune to it.

One person gets five

votes each, right?

I ran the numbers and the C

who had the least votes had five.

If we get three more Ds to

join us and vote for each other,

we'll all get more

than five votes each.

That'll make us all Cs.

Cs.

That'll make a total of 11 Cs.

There'll be more Cs than Ds.

Like this.

The pyramid will fall more

easily than we think.

If the Pyramid Game is no longer

shaped like a pyramid,

the game will be over.

So, my point is,

we have to get together

the Ds who'll move up

to being Cs with us.

Which three among the Ds?

Yeah, I'm wondering myself.

How do we find the girls who have

no ties to the upper ranks?

I don't know the girls that well.

Me neither.

Mr. Kim. I'm here on an

errand for Mr. Im.

Could you open

the cabinet for me?

Oh

-Tidy up before you leave.

-I will. Thank you.

Yesterday was the last day

to finish up transcripts.

And Mr. Im was absent.

It was total chaos in the office.

I told Math I was doing an errand

and asked him

to open the cabinet.

Wow.

You really are

something else, Su-ji.

You're such a great liar too.

It's not that hard.

You just need to think quick.

It's easy when it's critical.

Sometimes

You remind me of someone.

The way you think and act.

Who?

Whatever, it's easy

to tell now, right?

Tell what?

Homeroom wrote everything

we need to know in his notes.

I'm only going to

explain this once.

First of all, the Cs.

Ji-young's parents work

at Baekyeon Food

so she's connected to Ha-rin.

Seon-ju's dad owns SJ Company

which is a subcontractor

for Da-yeon's family.

There are more like them.

It's not important

so I'll move on.

Now for the Ds who

are important to us.

Yang So-young's parents are

doctors at Seosim Hospital.

Choi Yu-yeon gets a scholarship

from Baekyeon Group.

If we exclude everyone like them,

that leaves six Ds

we can approach.

Yoon Ye-won, Go Eun-byeol,

Cho Yu-rim,

Ra Hae-jun,

Song Jae-hyeon, Joo Seung-ie.

We just have to

pick three from them.

But not Go Eun-byeol.

She's crazy and

a pathological liar.

Not Joo Seung-ie either.

Wow, so this is C programming?

I've never actually

seen it before.

Are you writing malware?

No, this is just a hobby.

What?

You're suspecting

me of tampering again?

No, we proved that

the game was clean.

Let's be cool, buddy.

I'm analyzing code.

Why, are you interested?

Can you tell the difference

between a hacker and a cr*cker?

Wow, my pride just took a hit.

Communicate through text only.

For now, Ja-eun and I have to

mingle more with the others.

That way,

we'll get an opportunity

to bring them over to our side.

Hey, It's Shownu X Hyungwon.

They're live streaming

was awesome yesterday.

I love how Shownu dances.

You're a MONBEBE?

-You too?

-Me too!

Have you ever been

to their fan sign event?

Yes, of course.

-Really?

-You've never been?

So cute.

Huh?

Hey.

Who are they? They look funny.

What? Why are you picking

a fight over my boys?

Ye-rim, need this?

Oh, thanks.

-There's one more, right?

-There is.

For the second step,

whatever happens to Ji-ae,

we have to ignore it.

What? Why?

Then,

what am I supposed to do?

We're in this together.

We can't draw

any more attention to ourselves.

Make it look like we went our own

ways after trying to resist once.

MYEONG JA-EUN - OKAY

Ja-eun, are you making fun of me?

Wow.

-I got Dragonite.

-Huh? Can I have it?

This is for Ra Hae-jun.

I need it to strike up

a conversation naturally.

Hey, this is good!

It's good.

Come on out.

Hang on,

you better not ruin it.

Don't worry.

I'll save you 5,000 won.

Cut it like mine.

Absolutely not.

-Come on, just once.

-Don't cut it like Yu-rim's.

I'm cutting it for real now.

-Su-ji is good at this.

-Your turn now?

Yes!

Hi, nice day today.

"Hi, nice day today."

You sound like a robot.

Try to smile a little.

You look like Joker.

Don't smile. Just say this.

"Wanna go for malatang later?

It'll be on me."

-Malatang?

-Just repeat after me.

"Wanna go for malatang later?

It'll be on me."

"Wanna go for malatang later?

It'll be on me."

"Wanna go for malatang"

Wait, Ja-eun.

I can't help but feel

something is going on.

You can talk to me.

Is anyone being bullied

in your class?

Well

Uh

Actually

Hello.

Oh, Ha-rin.

Ja-eun, aren't you going to

change into your gym clothes?

Do-ah will lock the door again

if you're late.

Oh, right. Go to class.

We'll take this up

again next time.

You look tired. Is something up?

So, you've competed

at international

anti-hacking competitions?

Wow, I'm impressed.

By the way, how did you end up

making the Pyramid Game app?

I offered to make it.

Writing the names

and counting the votes by hand

How primitive is that?

You offered?

But you're

Oh

Never mind.

What?

Bang Wu-ie who only drew

the logo is a B but I'm a D?

A sense of inferiority.

Being a D despite

creating the app

There's a 99% chance

she's unhappy.

No, 100%.

Were you going to tell her?

To the literature teacher?

No, I would never tell.

I was only going to tell her

not to worry about anything.

Why?

She could be able to help.

It would only make things worse.

You wouldn't want

an anti-bullying

committee to be held.

You're worried about me?

In case I got into trouble?

Thanks.

But, then why?

Why did you get out

of being an F?

How dare you?

Why did you trade votes

with the new girl?

Hmm?

Ja-eun.

You know you can't do this to me.

NAME: YOON YE-WON

"Has a lot of pride

and the desire to be recognized.

Hates to lose,

but tends to comply

when it's to her benefit.

Seeks practicality

in friendships as well."

HOW ARE THINGS GOING?

COME TO THE ROOFTOP

What? She read my text

but why isn't she coming?

What's wrong?

You look frozen.

Huh?

I'm fine.

How's the plan going?

Ji-ae keeps texting.

Oh

PYO JI-AE

DON'T DO THIS TO ME

SEONG-MYEONG-PYO

HEY

I don't have enough info

on the girls.

Info

It'd be simple if we could

hack their phones.

Hack?

You know how to hack?

Would I be here if I did?

I'd have done it already.

That's a crime.

Whatever.

I just need to be friends

with someone who can.

WINNER OF THE 35TH NATIONAL

COLLEGE ANTI-HACKING COMPETITION

Ye-won, do you want to do it?

Ye-won has a huge ego

and likes to show off.

She also likes a challenge.

She'd be less wary of you

who's a D than me who's a C.

We just need to find something

to persuade her.

Hey, Ye-won.

New laptop?

Looks nice.

-Is it a MacBook Pro?

-You know a lot about MacBooks?

I just know that it's expensive.

If you get the best graphic

card and memory

it's well over $10,000, isn't it?

That's the Mac Pro, right?

That's the new one

I have at home.

See you later in class.

Yeah, bye.
