Chapter 54 – Episode 54. The Day We Met Again
I thought while walking with Hochang.
‘Craving.’
Hochang was a little different from his school days due to his desire.
There are aspects of the basic personality similar to those of the past and present.
Hochang, who can be said to be an excessively thrifty and thrifty man, is a style that pays a little more attention to small things.
Also, Hochang likes to play games, and although he tends to be a bit indolent in class, his grades are quite good.
Those things are similar.
However, Hochang seems to have opened his eyes to a certain reason not long ago.
I’m the same age as Hochang, but I’ve come to a state where I can control my desires by meeting a lot of women.
Of course, I didn’t at first either.
Just getting a little closer to a woman, walking with her, and putting on a little bit of her flesh, her pillar of desire to fuck her in her panties dripped her pre-cum from her head, and it was unheard of for a woman who was very attractive by my standards. There were times when it didn’t come out well.
In my case, such things became controllable through many experiences, and the same is true for me now.
However, Hochang seemed to be in heat.
Deficiency makes Hochang anxious.
In my case, I had a wide range of choices, so after experiencing a lot of things, I was able to achieve this kind of stable mind control.
Ho-chang was a guy who had no interest in women at all and only liked games among the slightly bigger factors that could interfere with his studies, such as games and dating.
But now it seems that he likes both games and women very much.
It seems that this is why there is a saying that the late wind is more frightening.
In a way, I have the conditions to play with a woman anytime as much as I want to play, but in the case of Hochang, even if I wanted to, I couldn’t do it.
“Hochang-ah, how about practicing to wait until you get a job while watching porn? There’s no such restriction once you get a job.”
“Ummm, well.”
Hochang followed her words.
“The reason I want to meet a woman is to improve my studies. It can also be a motivation to succeed and do well for the person I love.”
“Um… Hochang-ah, how many women are you flirting with right now?”
“Oh, you don’t have that yet?”
In a situation where Hochang has yet to have any relationship with any woman, he is thinking about doing better while studying with the person he loves, and even having motivational thoughts about success to be good to the person he loves…
There was no one to give rice cakes, but it seemed to be about boiling kimchi hot pot rather than kimchi soup.
Perhaps such thoughts are also because Hochang has not met many women.
I also had a dream like that when I didn’t have much dating.
Even in middle and high school, I was popular and I studied enough, but when I went to university, I would study every day with my girlfriend while dating the library, and that dream was that I would devote myself more to my studies.
However, when I went to college and drank and dated the opposite sex, I realized that I was busy making rice cakes, let alone dating in the library.
It was because compared to studying in the library, going to her room and undressing each other and fucking each other was a lot more fun.
As such, there can be a certain difference between what you think and what you do.
But even if I told Ho-chang about those things now, it wouldn’t mean much.
It’s like a manager in his 40s talking about company life to a 7-year-old kindergartener who can’t understand anything.
So I didn’t tell Hochang about my many experiences in general.
Hochang then spoke to me a little later.
“Jinhyuk. Do you know any girls? Someone you can introduce me to.”
“These days, I rarely care about human relationships.”
“Really? But, if you find a girl around you who can introduce me, please set me on a blind date.”
“Um, okay.”
I don’t know if there is a woman who can set Hochang on a blind date.
A blind date is a blind date that only those of the opposite sex who are friends with me can set up a blind date for.
If I offered a blind date to another man for a woman who has feelings for me, she would obviously reject it, and it is only possible to introduce her to Hochang only if she is a woman who is her friend.
Unfortunately, however, most of the women who approach me are attracted to me as a rational crush, and cases that approach me as friends are rare.
After talking about things with Hochang, I arrived at the academy right away.
Enter the academy and climb the stairs with Hochang.
And on the way to the door to the lecture room, they would chatter a little, and when they entered the lecture room, they would study separately all day long in their respective positions.
“Take heat.”
“Uh, you too~. Eat one more of this.”
“Oh, thank you, Jinhyeok.”
“No, what~.”
As I walked to the front of the classroom, I took another box of pepero out of my bag, gave it to Hochang right before entering, and walked to my seat.
Because of the still crowded seats, the process of walking around the place where there is a wide gap between desks is a bit annoying.
It’s a little better once you go to your seat and sit down.
After I went to my seat, I opened the book to check the scope of today’s learning, and before the class started, I additionally reviewed the content I had prepared yesterday before the instructor came in.
***
Taking classes all day.
And I studied again in the self-study room.
Even the nighttime self-study time would come to an end someday if I concentrated as much as I could.
I checked the round clock hanging at the top of the academy wall, picked up my phone to check the time once more, and realized that today was a successful day.
‘I worked really hard today too.’
My purpose is the center of power… It’s not until now, but it’s about passing the civil service exam, and I think I’ve put in a lot of effort.
So, to finish the day’s study properly and perfectly like this, I couldn’t be happier because the plan that corresponds to my ultimate goal was done very well.
I packed my things and got up.
Today, there are some people who go to the academy’s self-study room after closing.
A couple of people besides me woke up around the same time.
Fortunately, among the people who wake up at the same time, there were no women who came to ask me to date like on Pepero Day.
Anyway, having studied until the classroom was almost empty, I felt a sense of accomplishment.
But you can’t be careless.
Those who can now be seen in front of my eyes are only a small fraction of those who are studying.
This is because there are many people who study really hard in the reading room or at home.
In addition, compared to the people who come out and study at 4 or 5 in the morning, no matter how much I study until night, I may be pushed behind in my study load.
Also, the people in this high school town are only a few of those preparing for the civil service exam.
Among the 800,000 people who take the civil service exam, and now there are more people than that, if you look at the numbers, there is a floating population in the high school town, but in terms of proportion, they make up a very small minority.
There are infinitely many other people who work hard like that.
So, for now, I decided to focus on my own studies that I was achieving.
There are many people who work hard anyway, and I don’t think I need to worry about my competitors.
Packing my bag, I got out of the large lecture hall on the fourth floor and went down the stairs.
And the third floor…
On the third floor, I bumped into Yun-Kyung.
“Uh~ brother~?”
Yoon-kyung smiled as she walked toward me.
“Uh, Yoon Kyung-ah.”
As if she saw me sooner than I saw her, Yun-gyeong was walking towards her and waving her hand as if to say hello.
I waited a while.
And I walked side by side with Yoon-kyung and went down the stairs.
It was very natural for our steps to begin to go side by side.
Come to think of it, it was like the last time we met, and Yoon-kyung seemed to be the type to stay up late at the academy.
Even if you study at the same academy at night, you may not necessarily study in the same classroom.
This is because the classrooms where you can do night self-study change randomly every day, and sometimes only one is open, but basically there are several classrooms that are open as self-study rooms.
I went down the stairs with Yun-kyung and started talking.
“Is this the way you’ve been studying at the academy?”
“Yes. Room 304.”
“Ah. I was on the 4th floor today.”
“Is the largest classroom there?”
“Hmm.”
After I answered Yoon-kyung’s words, I continued.
“It’s been a while? I think we’ve met like this before.”
“Whoops, I will.”
Yoon-kyung smiled and asked me.
“What did you study at night?”
I find it amusing that I am adapting to these learning conversations.
Even when I walk on the streets, people with my party go around saying something about the Daejeontongpyeon or the Honilgangri Yeokdae National Road Map, but it is somewhat funny that this is not strange.
Come to think of it, I feel that the place background of this goshichon is a special idea that is very different from other places.
“Review what you learned today, and prepare for what you will learn tomorrow.”
It seems okay to just say that it is a preparation review, but in the case of the civil service exam, the amount is ridiculously large.
So even if you do self-study at night like this, even if you completely understand the contents you have reviewed, it may be difficult to get 100% in your head by memorization, and there are days when you devote yourself to reviewing and have little time to prepare.
Even though I can’t put all the details in my head, I am memorizing the level of difficulty enough to appear in the test questions as much as possible, regardless of methods.
“Preparatory study and review of the academy?
“I see. In class, I obviously took notes, but I didn’t know what it meant, so I looked up the basics and said there are just such things?”
It is easy to find basic books on the floor of this goshichon.
The reason is that there are quite a lot of comrades who retreat lonely after failing in the civil service exam.
Some of them end up throwing away books in bundles when they go home.
Then the person leaves, but only the books in the box remain like ghosts.
At that time, you can search around and get what you need.
And, it’s easy to buy from other high school students for less than half the price.
It is safe to trade second-hand goods directly, but since this area is all directly traded, it is easy to obtain a basic book at a cheap price.
“Basic books? I also look for basic books, there are so many, oppa~.”
“You’re too humble. I’m going to do this again and get an average of over 90 points.”
“Your brother is really~. I’m a beginner~.”
“It’s a problem-solving class after the deadline for the self-study room, but it’s a beginner? Are you putting a smoke screen on our Yun-kyung oppa right now?”
At my words, Yoon-kyung burst into laughter.
Haha!
She smiles and quietly walks close to me.
I feel better.
It was nice to feel Yoon-kyung’s face, hair, body, and steps while walking together.
And I think she’s a stickler for her studies.
In any field, once you reach a certain level, pros quickly recognize each other.
You can say that I felt it while studying.
Not only is he rarely wrong in English vocabulary, but when it comes to giving short lectures on reading comprehension problems in turns, he doesn’t fall behind me too much.
And my level is at a level where I fell by a margin of 1 point in the civil service exam, so if it is close to me, it is a passing skill.
Well, there must be a lot of people who fall by less than 1 point, so some people may not think my score is close, but I think that way anyway.
It’s not that important, Yun-kyung is the type to study late even though her current skills look good.
I think this type has a rather high pass rate.
As for the type, I just entered the goshichon, but I have the basics and before my passion is exhausted, I would say the type that works really hard.
If you just think of common sense, longevity may seem advantageous.
It is because the amount of study is bound to pile up anyway.
Strangely, however, if you look at the people who actually pass, surprisingly, the ratio of the first to second year students is also quite high.
I think Kim Yoon-kyung also has common virtues that those who passed the early stage usually show.
Her inexhaustible enthusiasm, her dedication to studying to maintain her sharpness, things like that.
I came out of the academy and walked with Yunkyung Kim, and I said as we entered the alley of food that stretched all the way home.
“Would you like some snacks?”
“Wow~, is that so?”
Yoonkyung Kim’s voice seemed to be a little raised.
She also seemed to be craving something to eat after her long hours of learning, her night self-study.
I walked with her Yun-kyung and asked her.
“Do you remember the other day? Did we have a slice of ice cream and waffles together?”
