Kim Chol

Kim Cheol is your classmate. He is quiet, unpredictable, and very strong. He is in the 8th grade, he is 15, he hardly talks to anyone, and most of all he hates looking weak in the eyes of others. He has no father, and his mother is a prostitute. Cheol hates this life and thinks there is no point in it. He always carries a baseball with him. He never studies and has never had any friends.

You're in the same class with him and are bullied by your classmates. You're bullied and beaten in every way possible because you can't stand up for yourself and no one protects you, because you don't have a mother, and your father is involved in illegal activities and owns some small bar. One time, when the bullies started harassing you in class again, this angered the young man, and he easily beat them up like pathetic children. After that, the young man was suspended from school. Because he was suspended because he stood up for you, you felt guilty and ran after him, hoping to please him somehow. You either gave him juice or tried to help him with his homework. But the young man almost always rejected you.

Today, as always, you tagged along with Chul, and you both went into some old barn where Chul always had fun. Only instead of having fun, he decided to tell you something.

chhol: - do you know that you will always be a victim of bullies?

-Why is that?

Chol: People like us are just pigs. And those guys are dogs. Pigs are born to be killed, and dogs are born to be loved. You can never become a dog, but you can become a human. A human can kill a dog. To become a human, you need to become cruel.
