Episode 1.
School has the romance of youth.
I realized this while studying for 15 hours a day. Life is unfair. The kids who are academic achievers were born brilliant. Not only that, they're good at sports and have a good personality. They're pretty and handsome, and rich too. It's the sad reality that one cannot easily succeed coming from a humble family. I'm at the bottom of the food chain, so to speak. – Kang Yeon Doo
One, you get off me first. Two, I get off first. Three, since we're already in this situation, we just go for it. – Kim Yeol
It doesn't matter if it's believable or not. It's the truth! – Kang Yeon Doo
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
When a friend is in need, you should go help. Do you stand back and watch, you heartless morons? You're so obsessed with grades that you would walk all over your friends. – Kang Yeon Doo
If I don't give up what I like. If I don't give it up, it won't end. – Kang Yeon Doo
Episode 2.
I won't be able to stand it if you're ostracized or in pain alone. – Park Sun Young
I'm going to stick around here until the end. Then, I'm going to see you fail with my own two eyes. – Kang Yeon Doo
How long are you going to stand being treated as sub-human beings? – Joon Soo
I want to dance now. I want to be happy now. Is that such a crime? – Kang Yeon Doo
I'll be somewhere you wouldn't even dare to look at me. – Kwon Soo Ah
Nothing can be gained without pain. – Kim Byung Jae
I am all about loyalty. – Kang Yeon Doo
Episode 3.
That's the last shed of my pride. – Kang Yeon Doo
Pride? That seems to be the most important thing to you. But for me, that friend is more important. – Kim Yeol
No one will remember second place. – Kwon Soo Ah
Wouldn't it be great if we didn't even care? Then we wouldn't get angry or hurt over such a thing. – Kwon Soo Ah
I can't stop now even if I'm not happy. So I'll get stronger and be even more determined. – Kwon Soo Ah
Episode 4.
Since we keep crossing paths, I'm starting to become interested in her. – Kim Yeol
I do have a girl that I want to kiss. – Kim Yeol
Let's stay quiet as if we're dead. That's what the adults want us to do. – Kim Yeol
That's why I'm trying my best to survive. It's all for you. – Seo Ha Joon
One. I'm going to do it. – Kim Yeol
Episode 5.
Keep living your lives without a single true friend, you terrible people. – Kang Yeon Doo
Do you think it's cold? Even so, it's probably not as cold as I am. – Kwon Soo Ah
A guy who is drunk kisses people 100% of the time.
How can you worry about others all the time? – Kim Yeol
I'm scared too, but I know this shouldn't be happening. So how can I just look the other way? – Kang Yeon Doo
Don't start if you're not going to be able to resolve it. Don't run away after you start something. – Kim Yeol
How come I didn't think about the same thing sooner? The fact that I was my son's entire world. The fact that I shouldn't have left him alone. – Kim Byung Jae
I'm more loyal than you think. – Kang Yeon Doo
I understand how we are, but I hope she's different. – Seo Ha Joon
Two things you need to find while you're in school: friends you'd do anything with and adults who will be on your side no matter what. That's how you can survive in this school. – Yang Tae Bum
Ever since I came to this school, I've gotten small. – Kim Yeol
As for what I will do with my future and what I will become when I grow up, I have no idea. – Kang Yeon Doo
Do what that you like to do right now, something your heart wants rather than your head. If you do what you like to do now, one day you might want to become something. – Kim Yeol
Episode 6.
Your plots are too obvious so I catch onto them all the time. – Kim Yeol
If I didn't do it, you would have. If I didn't do it, you'd do whatever without worry about consequences and get hurt and be in pain. I don't want to see you like that. – Kim Yeol
It's not exactly a diss but a slice of truth. – Kang Yeon Doo
Don't talk as if everything's over. It's not over yet. – Kang Yeon Doo
I'm sorry. I had no intention of doing that, but I ended up hurting you. – Yang Tae Bum
I can't stand not doing what my heart tells me. – Park Sun Young
Episode 7.
There's no such thing as always being okay in this world. Everyone just acts like they're okay. – Yang Tae Bum
I think someone sprayed sleeping medicine on the textbooks. – Kang Yeon Doo
When everybody else is criticizing him, can't you trust him at least? – Kang Yeon Doo
Episode 8.
Good news should always be delivered in person. – Kang Yeon Doo
Thanks for believing in me, for not believing in Rank One Kim Yeol but just plain old Kim Yeol.
That's the most difficult thing in the world, trusting someone wholeheartedly. – Kim Yeol
I was having less hard time, because I had people believing in me. – Kim Yeol
Why do you always worry about other people's business like it's your own? – Seo Ha Joon
Why do you always say the opposite of what you mean? – Kang Yeon Doo
There are times when people start walking on a path they cannot turn back on. At that point, though, all they have to do is turn back. If you extend a hand out, I will always take your hand and help you return. – Yang Tae Bum
What's so hard about saying I'm sorry for everything up until now or I believe in you? – Kim Byung Jae
I'm Sorry. Thank You. I Love You. Even if you say just those three things to your kids, they'll grow up well. – Park Sun Young
Why do you keep witnessing my ugly side all the time? – Kwon Soo Ah
Episode 9.
I don't think this is something that can be resolved with just your tears. – Kim Yeol
I wanted to be the first one to find you. And then, as soon as I find you, I wanted to give you a hug. – Kim Yeol
I don't want to worry about you secretly anymore and I'm tired of secretly paying attention to you. Above all, I'm tired of beating around the bush. So, understand what I'm trying to say already. I like you. – Kim Yeol
Episode 10.
Thinking about it, you're really good at leaving questions unanswered. – Kim Yeol
You just want me to follow my road map well? Is there even an end to this journey? – Kwon Soo Ah
I am so tired of giving her second chances. – Kang Yeon Doo
Why was it so hard for me to say this all this time? How do I say I'm sorry or Thank you? How do I ask for a hand when I'm lonely? It was all too difficult for me. If I looked the other way and focus on studying, I really thought I'd become happy. Even if I wasn't happy today, I thought I'd definitely become happy tomorrow. But the more I did that, why did I become more unhappy? Why did I feel more suffocated? Why did I become more monstrous? I hated myself for being that way, so I can't take it anymore. We're told to pass up being happy today in order to become happy tomorrow. Don't believe that lie by the adults. Don't forget that you will be happy tomorrow only if you're happy today. – Kwon Soo Ah
I hope my apology isn't too late. I hope no one suffers anymore because of me. – Kwon Soo Ah
Mom, I'm sorry I wasn't able to live up to your expectations. Even if it was done unethically, I'm glad that you will remember I was one Rank One. I wanted to make your wish come true at least once. – Kwon Soo Ah
Do you know what was hardest for me? I hated you so much, but I couldn't completely hate you at the same time. It was because of these memories. – Kang Yeon Doo
You were wrong to think you have no one next to you. You're not alone. To you, there are friends who would do things with you. There are teachers who would stand by you no matter what. – Kang Yeon Doo
Episode 11.
Following your road map all this time is what brought me to this point. I no longer want to. I'm going to choose what I believe is right and what I want to do. I think that'll be the only way I won't have any regrets. – Kwon Soo Ah
Thank you. I know you didn't give up on me until the end. – Kwon Soo Ah
I'm such a moron. I can't even do what my heart tells me. – Seo Ha Joon
I was a person who didn't think much and just did things. I've calmed down a bit now. I've also learned how to protect myself, thanks to him. – Kang Yeon Doo
Now that I'm with her who believes in me, I'm beginning to have the courage to believe in other people. – Kim Yeol
Okay, I won't bother you. But please, don't get hurt. – Kang Yeon Doo
Don't go. Stay like this with me for a little bit. This is too painful. – Seo Ha Joon
I shouldn't be too perfect, you know. I need room to be human. – Kim Yeol
Episode 12.
It's not your business whether or not I choose to flee like a coward. – Seo Ha Joon
I can't lose you either. – Kim Yeol
I feel like crap, so how could be fine? – Kim Yeol
Is being 18 so difficult for everyone? – Kang Yeon Doo
It seems like a new problem arises when one is resolved. And when I think that everything is going to be okay, another issue comes up. – Kim Yeol
I thought everything would be fine if I just followed my heart. I thought I just had to try my best at the things I like to do, and I thought that I just had to do my best to help when a friend was in need. But it's hard to find other answers with this dumb brain of mine. – Kang Yeon Doo
There were some tough moments, but I think there were more happy moments. I hope I'm not the only one who feels this way. – Kang Yeon Doo
I still get depressed at times, but I will try to hold on to myself from now on. – Seo Ha Joon
I'm cheering for who I am today!
Please remember the time when we were hurting passionately at 18. With you, I became we. So, I was encouraged. Because of you, I got a chance to look at myself. So, I was able to grow up a little bit more. We will continue to fall down at hurdles in life. We'll make mistakes and get hurt because we're inexperienced. We will also cry. But I will not regret. Because we've tried our best to be happy today.
We were doomed to fail from the beginning. – Ha Dong Jae
The red bear didn't like the green one. He didn't like that she was loud and stuck her nose in everybody's business. But she started to get close. She gave him band aids and ointment whenever he was hurt. That's how he started having feelings for her. He learned how to love even if it hurts. – Seo Ha Joon
We are still the same. They are still the privileged group of Sevit High, taking five percent. We're still at the bottom. What's different now is we have friends with whom we can do anything together.
You'll know when you grow up. Growing old doesn't necessarily mean that you become mature. – Kim Byung Jae
We still haven't given up our love.
If he cheats on you, come to me. I'm very faithful, you know. – Seo Ha Joon
