Chapter 85

085 Last SAT (4)

A shaking bus.

“…Mom, don’t worry too much. Are you sure you are in the Seoul area because your SAT scores are good? yea, I got it. I’ll call you after the exam. See you later.”

I heard the person next to me talking on the phone.

Looking at the sound coming from over the handset, it was probably talking to my parents on the phone.

Park Il-han’s expression was slightly distorted.

The faintly audible voice over the receiver shakes the mind.



‘I envy you.’

He had an affair with his parents, which he did not allow.

He had lost the relationship he had left in the call of the person next to him.

‘How much money did you spend on you? Upset stomach? Are you proud that the student didn’t even manage his condition? Are you making excuses like that every day and becoming a surplus? know?’

The words of her mother floated through his mind.

“Phew.”

Park Il-han sighed and looked out the window.

It was because he seemed to be going into depressive mode again.

But then.

Kakao Talk-

The cell phone he had in his pocket started to cry.

It was a chat room with close friends.

I pick up my phone and check.

[Friend 1: Received a woman today. I get a fashion question.]

It seemed that one of my friends decided to go on a blind date this time.

Park Il-han smiled faintly and checked the picture posted by his friend.

However?

The moment he saw the clothes his friend was wearing, Park Il-han felt his breath suffocate.

A red plaid shirt or cargo pants with hanging pockets that look like they’ve been pulled out of a clothing bin.

The menacingly shaped champion belt and calf socks that prevent varicose veins in advance.

It was because it really showed how insensitive humans can be to fashion.

[Friend 2: ???? If you’re doing this to be funny, great success][Friend 3: Is the blind date a hiking trail?][Friend 4: I don’t give it out of 5 stars][Friend 5: Is this the solo look that I only heard about lol]

just as expected.

The reactions of my friends who saw the photos were all negative.

However.

[Friend 1: ····? Isn’t this good enough?]

The friend who posted the picture didn’t seem to think so.

Then, realizing the seriousness of the situation, the friends began to reply in earnest.

[Friend 2: How do you guys do it? I don’t get an estimate][Friend 3: Hey, if you’re not going to go on a blind date and do a tag match with an introductory girl, then throw away the champion belt. And that shirt…is it a tick?][Friend 1: Eh, it’s not a button, it’s a tick. What’s my favorite outfit? Isn’t it okay?][Friend 4: hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[Friend 5: Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[Friend 3: Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

As she watched her friends roar, the words her mother had said vanished from her mind.

But after a while.“·················ogue.”

A bitter smile formed on Park Il-han’s lips.

It was because as he read the conversations of his friends, a sense of shame hidden in his chest raised his head.

It seems like it had only been yesterday since I took the same entrance exam and the distance between my friends was already growing.

Frankly, it was embarrassing.

While he was not able to open his eyes because he was preparing for an essay.

Friends go on a blind date like now.

He said he started working part-time.

Or that he goes on a trip

He was free to experience things that had been forbidden for 12 years.

But he was still in high school.

“Hey, what are you all doing…”

Park Il-han shook his head.

He thought, looking at his KakaoTalk, he didn’t have time to be in awe.

Because today is the day of ‘Hanryong University Essay Test’.

Park Il-han looked at his cell phone watch.

The time is 10:30.

For Il-Han Park, the essay exam at Hanryong University is actually her last chance to enter the university.

Even looking at his friends’ KakaoTalk and falling into a sense of shame was a luxury for him.

[The next stop is Sageundong Byeoksan Apartment.]

There was the sound of a stop sign.

In order to complete the check-in by 12 o’clock, I had to move quickly as soon as I got off the bus.

Park Il-han, who hurriedly packed his belongings, got up from his seat.

Beep- I’m getting off-

As Park Il-han got off the bus, huge stone buildings caught his eye.

‘Hanryong University.’

Among the so-called ‘prestigious’ universities, it is the only school that has abolished the lowest grade of the essay test.

It was also the school Park Il-han was aiming for.

I looked around and saw that many of the people who had been on the same bus as Il-Han Park were getting off here.

Apparently, Hanryong University has a relatively low admission limit compared to other universities in the same class, so it seems that the number of people applying for the essay exam at other universities is higher than that of other universities.

‘Last year, 400 people were recruited, but 35,000 people flocked to it.’

Then the people walking with me started to be very concerned.

In a way, they were all Park Il-han’s rivals.

There were only six students in the Korean Language and Literature department at Hanryong University, which he was aiming for, and it was clear that he would be eaten if he did not come to his senses.

Park Il-han pulled the tension that was about to be released and moved slowly.

‘Isn’t the engineering building the place to take the test?’

Fortunately, he did not get lost on the road as he had visited Jun-yeong in his car the day before.

Or, is it because I walked too boldly?

Everyone who got off the bus was following Park Il-han.

Feeling like a piped man, Park Il-han walked towards the exam hall.

and after a while.

[2019 Hanryong University Essay (Humanities) Examination Hall]

arrived at the high school.

Park Il-han’s heart began to pound.

He feels more nervous than when he took the SAT.

Because he took the exam in the high school classroom, at least when he took the SAT.

But this is an unfamiliar place. It was an unfamiliar air.

The cold air of the test site turns into a dagger and flies in.

“after···.”

Park Il-han took a deep breath. And he remembered yesterday.

‘If you think you can win, you can win. Because victory requires faith.’

I remembered what Junyoung had said yesterday in my mind.

A determined light appeared on Park Il-han’s face, who had been hesitating.

giggle-

The high school door opened.

* * *

“The exam will start in 10 minutes. If you are going to the bathroom, go now.”

“After 12 noon, you will never be able to leave the exam room.”

“Please bring all other belongings except writing utensils to the front of the examination hall.”

Park Il-han, who was preparing for the exam after entering the exam hall, heard the sound of announcing the start of the exam.

After organizing the exam papers he was looking at, he brought his bag to the front of the exam hall.

Then he returns to his seat and arranges pens, sharpeners, and erasers neatly on the desk.

But he was organizing his writing tools.

I saw something written on the desk.

I looked closely to see if someone wrote it down to cheat.

‘I’m going to this school unconditionally.’

It was written by someone who had taken the exam at this place before.

A commitment to yourself.

“…”

Park Il-han had a strange feeling about him.

It was a feeling that the promise of a person who had been in the same position and the same test was being transmitted to him at this moment.

Then he wondered.

‘Did this person pass?’

If the person who wrote this down was accepted, he could have run into him on campus.

And he could take classes in the same space or eat in the same place.

But if it falls, all of this becomes a useless imagination.

Park Il-han’s face, which had been stained with tension, began to show a burning desire.

‘great. I will definitely go to this school!’

The strength in his hand that was holding the pen entered.

“Well then, let’s start the exam. The test time is 90 minutes. Please allocate your time well.”

And the test began.

* * *

soft-



Both passages were those that Park Il-han studied while preparing for the essay with Jun-young.

Thanks to this, he was able to save time reading the text and understanding the ideology that came out of the text.

Also, the problem wasn’t too difficult.

The first problem is to find out what E. H Kawa Shin Chae-ho suggested as an important condition for defining history in his writings.

Since it is a question to ask whether the examinee correctly understands the point of view of history, it is important to understand that ‘history’ is a process in which the historian constantly interprets historical facts from the point of view to which he belongs, and that historical attributes are acquired when universality is satisfied. You should develop your argument in the center.

Question 2 was a question of expressing the examinee’s own thoughts after comparing the perspectives of the two people on history.

This was also an easy problem if we had a clear understanding of the two people’s perspectives on history.

Park Il-han gathered up his thoughts for a while and began to write his thoughts on the practice paper handed out by his university side.

square-

Park Il-han’s hand moved non-stop.

Every time his hand moves, the practice paper distributed by the university turns black.

and after some time.

wear-

Park Il-han, who stopped his hand, read all the articles he had written.

‘Good.’

After seeing what he had written, Il-Han Park began to transcribe the writings in his practice sheet onto his answer sheet.

Park Il-han, who wrote the text on the test paper in print, raised his head.

There were a lot of letters written on the answer sheet.

‘Isn’t that perfect?’

Park Il-han turned to the next page with his smile.

But the moment he confirms problem number three.

His face hardened.

because.

This was because question 3 was a completely different type of question from questions 1 and 2, which were general essay-type questions.

[Problem 3] Based on Machiavelli’s , discuss Yoo Jae Suk, the leader of the entertainment program . (50 points, 750±50 characters)

‘ruined.’

It was Park Il-han, who usually did not watch dramas or entertainment programs at all.

So he knew the name of Infinite Challenge and Yoo Jae-suk, but didn’t know what type of person he was specifically.

‘Should I just write the monarchy?’

But it seemed that doing so would affect the score.

No matter how many points you earned in questions 1 and 2, if you were wrong in question 3, which had a huge score of 50, then passing the Department of Korean Language and Literature at Hanryong University was like passing the water.


A situation where you can’t do this or that.

He just bit his lip and just kept reading the question.

But then.

A memory flashed through his mind.

‘Don’t just sell books every day, but look at something like this.’

When he was not in the mood to prepare for essays at the academy.

It was the memory of Jun-yeong sneaking up to Il-han Park, who was only reading books, and handed him a tablet PC.

at that time.

I remember seeing the video Jun-young offered and laughing out loud.

OK.

‘okay. I remembered it!’

The light returned to Park Il-han’s eyes, who had lost their color.

Kook-

His hand gripped his pen.
