“Last year, I had no idea how terrible our country’s sexism was. They constantly taught us in school that prejudice against women had diminished significantly, and I honestly believed it. I’m not sure whether it was because we were taught this that I was more sensitive to it, but the situation detonated in the midst of this.”
“Instead of claiming it burst, maybe it would be more accurate to state that children discovered a piece of paper. During lunch, I saw my companions staring at a piece of paper and muttering, and I was curious as to why they were cursing, so I looked as well. The paper was a standard-based ranking of our class’s female pupils”

“Our female instructor was rated as well. I was one of the top three faces, and I’m not sure how the ladies were rated, but I believe they were based on separate criteria.” Everyone else, save those included in the paper and those who wrote the rating, were advised to go home by our ethics instructor. She demanded that the criminals come out and confront the wall. The perpetrators were Park Joo-hyung, Im Se-hyun, and Hong Ji-pyo. Yes, that is correct. Yoon Chan-young is a child actress.”
