“You mean my dad is a professor at Korea University of Arts?”
Park Jun-ho speaks again.
As if wondering why he didn’t admire him, he spoke to Chaeyoon with an absurd face.
Chae-yoon had to feel embarrassed by Park Jun-ho’s words.
In this case, my father, Jo Seong-hyeon and Yeong-jun, never told me what to do.
Feeling confused, Chae-yoon nodded her head.
“cool.”
That was the best Chae Yoon could do.
Park Jun-ho made a subtle expression.
The expression that says this is not it.
Then, Park Jun-ho immediately said, “Ah.”
“Oh, you don’t know where the Korean University of Arts is?”
Park Jun-ho asked in a tone that seemed to say so, and Chae-yoon shook his head.
Even the child knew where the Korean University of Arts was.
“No, I know. This is where Shin Kyung-hwa is.”
Chae-yoon knew well that the Korea University of Arts was where Shin Kyung-hwa, who could play the piano and even played the violin, went.
Anyway, I tried going with Jo Sung-hyun, but I don’t know.
“uh? right. Professor Shin Kyung-hwa personally recommended my dad, so my dad is also a professor at the Korea University of Arts.”
“Did you recommend it?”
“yes. Picked it up.”
When Chae-yoon asked, with a proud face, Park Jun-ho nodded.
“Then, is Teacher Shin Kyung-hwa teaching your father?”
“No, I am not teaching. We work together!”
Park Jun-ho said with a frown on his face, wondering if Chae-yoon, who did not understand immediately, was a little frustrated.
However, Chae-yoon understood Park Jun-ho’s words correctly.
However, I just didn’t know Park Jun-ho’s father well.
Not knowing what to answer, after thinking for a while, Chaeyoon opened her mouth with a bright face.
“Oh, I see. If I work with Shin Kyung-hwa, I will play the piano very well.”
“My dad teaches violin, but… But why do you keep calling Professor Shin Kyung-hwa “teacher”? My dad calls me professor every day.”
Park Jun-ho looked at Chae-yoon with strange eyes.
Chaeyoung tilted her head.
Is the word teacher wrong?
“You are a teacher.”
“Why is Professor Shin Hwa a teacher? A professor is a professor.”
“… … ?”
But, that’s what I call a teacher.
Chae-yoon swallowed the words inwardly.
Because I didn’t want to talk with Park Jun-ho for a long time.
But again, Park Jun-ho realized something on his own.
“Ah, are you saying you are a teacher when you hear that the professor is coming to our school for a special class?”
“… … .”
“Even if you are giving a special class, the professor is a professor. So, you have to be careful when Professor Shin-hwa comes.”
Park Jun-ho said, and Chae-yoon just nodded.
He didn’t mention the fact that it was okay to call Shin Shin-hwa directly as a teacher.
Park Jun-ho continued his story whether Chae-yoon listened to it or not.
While Chae-yoon was ignoring Park Jun-ho’s words, someone approached the children.
Park Arin.
It’s an older sister I met at a campsite before.
Chae-yoon looked at Park A-rin with a happy face.
I want her to deal with Park Jun-ho as soon as possible.
“Hello, Chae Yoon-ah.”
“hello. sister!”
“Hey, you should be a teacher.”
Park Jun-ho gives Chae-yoon a pint glass with a tone as if he doesn’t know that.
I didn’t like Park Jun-ho and Chae-yoon, who kept saying things to me.
did you notice that
Park Arin smiled softly and opened her mouth.
“At school, call me teacher. Instead, when we meet outside, call me unnie.”
She stroked Chae-yoon’s hair and spoke, and Chae-yoon nodded.
“Yes, teacher.”
Chae-yoon replied calmly.
Park A-rin lightly tapped Chae-yoon’s cheek and continued.
“Did you hear what the homeroom teacher said?”
“… … .”
At her words, Chae-yoon’s face hardened subtly.
As if expecting it, Park Arin shed a smirk.
“Each of us decided to decorate our name tags as we wanted and put them on our lockers.”
“ah… !”
“Are you going to work hard to decorate your name tag?”
Arin Park said so and put down the prepared paper one by one in front of Chaeyun and Park Junho.
Thus, Chae-yoon’s school life began.
* * *
Jo Sung-hyun left work early.
I couldn’t leave work at 6pm like everyone else.
Chae-yoon’s school ends at 3 o’clock, so it’s natural for Jo Seong-hyeon.
They make me go to school, come to work, and leave work right after lunch at 3 o’clock.
In the end, the actual work time was only three or four hours a day, so it was a bit tight due to the schedule.
‘During my working hours, I’m really focused… I have to skip lunch too.’
There must be days when you simply have a meal or skip a meal.
Producer was originally a loose job when it was loose, and a tough job when it was tight, so it was natural.
Without Chae-yoon, there would have been cases of overtime work, but even for the sake of children, Jo Seong-hyeon was determined not to work overtime.
Jo Seong-hyeon hurried his steps.
It’s almost 3 o’clock now.
I had to hurry up so I could be on time.
Eventually he arrived at school around 3:05.
I was thinking about starting a little earlier in the future, but one by one students started coming out.
Seeing the children rushing out, Jo Sung-hyun smiled involuntarily.
The bright faces of the children were enough to make their father smile, even if they weren’t his own.
Jo Sung-hyun waited for Chae-yoon while watching the children come out.
And not long after, Chae-yoon appeared.
Jo Sung-hyun looked at Chae-yoon and waved his hand.
As soon as Chae-yoon found Jo Sung-hyun, she quickly waved and approached him.
Seeing the child approaching him, Jo Sung-hyun glanced at the boy who was walking alongside Chae-yoon.
Have you just made a new friend?
It wasn’t Yeongjun or Hayun.
Jo Sung-hyun is puzzled by the face he sees for the first time.
The boy said something to Chae-yoon, whether he had found his parents, and turned around.
Chae-yoon nodded her head briefly and then turned to Seong-hyeon Jo again.
Seeing the child almost running towards the end, Jo Seong-hyeon bowed and spread his arms.
Warak.
Chae-yoon comes to Jo Seong-hyeon.
Jo Sung-hyun smiled and held the child.
“Dad!”
“Yes, Chae Yoon-ah. How was school?”
Jo Sung-hyun asked, gently stroking the child’s hair.
Chae-yoon opened her mouth with a bright smile.
“Good.”
“okay?”
“yes. It was fun. Arin sister… And the teacher did a good job.”
Chae-yoon, who was trying to call A-rin Park as her sister, stopped and quickly changed her name to teacher.
Also, having Park A-rin makes me feel a little reassured.
“Who is that boy? friend?”
“yes. But it’s kind of weird.”
“Strange? what?”
“You just look at me and say something.”
“… What do you say?”
At Chaeyun’s words, Jo Sunghyun narrowed his forehead and asked.
It must have been the first time we met yesterday, at best, but he didn’t like what he said to his child.
Still, Jo Sung-hyun did not make hasty judgments.
It’s normal for people to make mistakes in their first meeting.
Plus, especially if you’re in the first year of elementary school.
Young-jun, who takes care of Chae-yoon like that now, didn’t make a mistake at first.
It was all a mistake he made while trying to do Chae Yoon-i, so Jo Seong-hyeon first listened to Chae-yoon in detail and tried to make a judgment.
“He just looked at me and said his dad was a professor at the Korea University of Arts, and he said you shouldn’t call Shin Kyung-hwa a teacher.”
Chaeyoung nodded and said.
Upon hearing that, Jo Sung-hyun burst into laughter.
Just hearing those words reminds me of the situation.
I’ve heard that kids these days, from elementary school, care about their parents’ jobs and the house they live in, but I’m not sure if that’s true or if the boy just wanted to brag about his father.
‘It was just a cute level.’
I am a young child who is now in the first grade of elementary school.
I want to be friends with Chae-yoon, but I have nothing to say, so maybe I was talking about my dad.

Maybe he just wanted to brag.
I couldn’t say it was wrong.
It can be seen as a cute behavior of a child.
“Chae Yoon-ah.”
“yes?”
The child makes eye contact with Jo Sung-hyun.
“Did you tell me that Chaeyoon took lessons from Professor Shin Kyung-hwa?”
“no.”
Chae-yoon shook her head and answered.
Did I not feel the need to say anything?
Or was it just that I didn’t talk because I was bored?
I don’t know, but if Chae-yoon had told me that she had been to Professor Shin-hwa’s house, I wouldn’t have given her a pin saying that she shouldn’t be called a teacher.
‘Instead, it would have been more annoying.’
As he thinks so, Chae-yoon tilts her head.
“Is it okay to talk?”
“No, I don’t have to tell you. Afterwards, Ms. Shin Kyung-hwa comes to give a special class. Wouldn’t it come naturally to you then?”
“yes. When Shin Kyung-hwa comes, his father will also come.”
“okay?”
“He was very proud of me. His father is close to Professor Shin Kyung-hwa.”
Jo Seong-hyeon smiled lightly at Chae-yoon’s words, then glanced at a boy walking alongside a woman who seemed to be his mother.
The feeling of wanting to brag about one’s father is so good.
Jo Sung-hyeon and Chae-yoon would be embarrassed if Chae-yoon went to show off about themselves, but the child would be so adorable.
Giving Chae-yoon a pint cup was not an act that I liked very much, but it wasn’t an act I didn’t understand either.
It’s cute, and I think it’s right to call him a professor.
However, I was curious.
When Professor Shin Kyung-hwa leaves a special class and talks with Chae-yoon.
What would that boy think?
It looked like an interesting scene would unfold.
Jo Sung-hyun turned his head and opened his mouth looking at Chae-yoon.
“Chae Yoon-ah, what’s that boy’s name?”
“uh… .”
Chaeyoon, who had been groaning and thinking for a while, let out a small sigh.
“I forgot… .”
The child muttered with a sullen face.
Seong-hyeon Cho finally burst out laughing.
So, the child’s first day of school passed.
