- Good morning.
- Morning.

I must have dozed off.

Was the ceiling always this low?

The sink seems lower too.

Huh?

Who the heck is that person?

2 WEEKS EARLIER

It's so freaking hot. Damn it.

You're a little short.

Oh, I'm sorry. I gave you a lot yesterday.

- Damn pig bastard.
- So, uh, today...

Tae-seong's little pet
is in trouble now.

You're slacking off,
Park Hyeong-seok.

- Uh.
- That's not true.

You'll do anything and everything
I tell you to.

- Yeah.
- What? "Yeah"?

- Woof!
- Spin around three times.

Gross. Look how much he's jiggling.

How can someone get so fat?

Woof! Woof! Woof!

I'm sorry, I forgot you're not a dog.

You're a filthy pig.

Why is a pig barking like a dog?

Oink, oink, oink, oink.

- What? What?
- Oink.

Man, this is hilarious.

I mean, sh*t! He looks like a real pig.

Hey! Were you looking up my skirt
just now? Huh?

What? No, no. I didn't.

You little sh*t.
Are you crazy?

You perverted
little pig bastard.

A loser bastard
since the day you were born.

How dare you look at her?

You belong on the bottom rung,
until the day you die, you piece of sh*t!

I want to die.

Uh...

Hyeong-seok,
your voice is amazing.

Uh?

- You could be a singer.
- Come on, ugh.

I'm sorry,
I didn't mean to be so late.

- Let me do that.
- But...

Sorry about the wait.

Seriously?

How many times do I have to tell you
not to add eggs?

Oh, it slipped my mind. I'm sorry.

- No wonder I keep gaining all this weight.
- Yes, you're right. I'm sorry, honey.

- I promise not to add eggs next time.
- Ugh, for real.

Huh? Ouch!

- I want to transfer.
- What?

Something wrong with your school?

Everyone at my school
is so much smarter than me.

So, getting good grades,
it's just too hard.

- I'm better off transferring.
- Oh, honey.

Hmm?

It was really hard for me
to get settled here.

It's hard to find a place with rent
this cheap.

And you'll lose touch
with all your school friends

if you transfer.

My school... friends?

Damn it!

What use are friends to me
when I can't get good grades?

Hyeong-seok.

Is it my fault that we're poor?

Damn it!

I mean,
what have you ever done for me anyway?

- Ugh, I'm doomed.
- Morning.

Why don't you watch where you're going?

Yeah, but you were the one
staring at your phone.

Ugh. What'd you say?

Um, I'm sorry.

Hey, pig. Got my gym clothes?

Oh, I'll have it on your desk right away.

Hey, hey, right there, pass.

Over here!

- Here it comes!
- Hey!

Hey, piggie! I told you not to dodge!

We put a bet on this!
Do you wanna die, huh?

I'm sorry.

- Hey. What are they doing?
- I don't know.

They're betting to see
who can hit his face.

- What?
- Wrap it up!

The gym teacher will be here soon.

Oh, come on. We're just warming up
over here before class.

- My turn. And I'm gonna win.
- Shut up and kick already.

Here we go!

- That was so cool.
- Did you see that?

That's nothing
for someone on the soccer team!

- Goal!
- Bloody sh*t.

Yeah! Goal!

Goal! G... G... G... Goal!

So, my balls must be easy
for you to dodge.

I'm so sorry, Tae-seong.
I promise I'll pay for your bet instead.

Are you trying to patronize me,
you bastard?

Hey, bro.

See that? Always go for the gut
when you strike first.

That will knock them right out.

This is nothing for a pro like me.

Yo, Tae-seong.

I... I can't breathe.

Ah, stop overreacting.
I didn't hit you that hard.

They're picking on Park Hyeong-seok again.

Why is he such a loser?

What? You want another one?

I told you the teacher's coming.

Let's get a few more hits in
before class starts.

So, you can realize what you did wrong.

- You bastard punks!
- Huh?

- Uh...
- Huh?

Who's that?

Mom?

Hyeong-seok, are you okay?

What? Is that his mom?

Hey, lady.
We were just playing a game here.

Game?

Huh?

Is hitting people a game to you,
little punks?

- Oh, this is weird.
- No way. He must've called his mom.

I can't believe,
he did that. What an idiot.

Why did you hit my boy?

Come with me to the principal's office.

I told you it isn't like that.

Stop it.

This is so f*cking embarrassing!

Did he just swear at his mom?

What's that idiot doing, seriously?

Tae-seong, I'm sorry.

Hi, honey. You're home late.

Y... Yeah.

Come talk with me for a bit.

Mom, about before, I wanna...

- Transfer, I know.
- What?

I was there today to discuss
a few transfer options with your teacher.

- Oh, what, really?
- Yeah.

I was thinking about how to do this

since I won't be able to join you
because of work.

Hyeong-seok...

you'll be fine on your own, right?

What do friends matter
when you're studying, huh?

It won't be much,
but I'll send you some money.

Trust me,
transfer schools.

Hey, you must be hungry. Let's eat, huh?

Where am I headed now? Let's see.

Is it this way?

Gosh.

Who cares if it's the slums?
This is good exercise.

Oh. This must be it.

Yeah. This is where
I'll start over.

No, Mom, it's fine! I'm not a child.

I mean, it's small but it's not bad.

No, my stuff hasn't arrived yet.

No, it's okay.
I'll go out and buy what I need.

DE JUST FEEL CLINIC

Wow. Amazing.

Whoa!
Everyone here looks so stylish.

Oh!

Oh! Uh...

- Sorry.
- I'm so sorry.

What?

- I was not paying attention.
- Oh, uh.

Uh, I really am sorry.

- I'm going to change.
- Uh?

A new neighborhood,
a brand-new life, a new me!

A new Park Hyeong-seok!

Excuse me, are you okay?

Yes, I'm totally fine.

- Did you get hurt at all?
- Uh?

- Ugh.
- Mi-jin!

Jin-seong!

Have you been waiting long?

Who's this?

- Someone you know?
- Uh, no, it's fine. Let's just go.

What the...

- What's with the smile?
- Oh, what?

- I accidentally bumped into her.
- Wait, what?

You bumped into her? Are you kidding me?

It's nothing.
I was the one not paying attention.

We're just going to chat a little.

Uh, I think there's been a...

So, why are you grinning
if you just bumped into her now, huh?

This is going to be a new life.

What?

Did you just clench your fists?

Not at all.
There must be some misunderstanding.

Come on, don't be like that.

Let's go get some coffee,
the three of us.

Oh, really?
You just wanna get coffee?

Yes.

- What's going on?
- What is that?

Hey, I think they're fighting.

Jin-seong. Stop it!

Smile!

You should probably clench your teeth.

- Oh, no! They're fighting.
- Huh? He's just getting beaten up.

Take a video
with your phone, hurry.

Hey, shouldn't we call
the police, though?

Get the video first.

I'm going to be the first
to post it on that website.

The poor fatso.

Why aren't you smiling now, huh?

Jin-seong! Hey! Hey! Stop it.

- That poor pig.
- Did you get that?

SLAUGHTERING A SMUG PIG IN HONGDAE

Stir-fried pork.

What school does this pig go to?

The video went viral.
I couldn't go to school if I were him.

I'm glad
my life's not like that.

Well, that pig had it coming.

A loser bastard
since the day you were born.

They were all mocking me.

I had no friends there.

I'm human too.

I'm human too.

I must have dozed off.

Was the ceiling always this low?

The sink seems lower too.

Huh?

Huh?

Huh?

Who the heck is that person?

That's... It's me.

Uh, excuse me.

I'm speaking so politely
to myself.

Excuse me.

Hey!

Was it a dream?

It was a scary but happy dream.

I wasn't dreaming. Wh... What happened? Hey!

Hey?

Huh?

Huh?

Did I just get switched back?

What is going on? Wait a second.

Ah, ah, ah.

Huh? My voice has changed too.

Okay, let's calm down.

Right. I'll call the hospital first.

KIM SANG-YEOL
WHAT SCHOOL DOES THIS PIG GO TO?

I COULDN'T GO TO SCHOOL IF I WERE HIM
HIS LIFE'S F-ING RUINED

You belong
on the bottom rung.

Until the day you die,
you piece of sh*t.

With this body,
I can change!

- Hi.
- Oh, right.
