Broke and Friendless? There's an App for That (Probably Not)
Imagine this: you're Park Chan-Hong, a high school nobody with the charisma of a wet napkin. Bullies torment you, your parents pressure you, and your social life is about as exciting as watching paint dry. Enter Heo Don-Hyuk, the brooding bad boy with a heart of... well, something other than pure rebellion. Don-Hyuk's got his own issues – haunted by his girlfriend's suicide, he needs help uncovering the truth.
Tip: Read actively — ask yourself questions as you go.
This is where things get interesting. In a twist that would make Machiavelli raise an eyebrow, Don-Hyuk proposes a contract. He'll be Chan-Hong's personal bodyguard (think less Ryan Reynolds, more "guy who throws textbooks at bullies"), and in exchange, Chan-Hong will use his writing skills to help Don-Hyuk with his investigation. It's basically a barter system, but with teenage angst and questionable morals.
QuickTip: A short pause boosts comprehension.
From Frenemies to... Maybe Friends?
Watching this unlikely duo navigate the treacherous high school landscape is pure comedic gold. Expect hilarious misunderstandings, near-death detentions, and enough side-eye to power a small village. Will their "friendship" survive the chaos? Will they unearth the truth about Don-Hyuk's girlfriend? Spoiler alert: Maybe. Probably not. But hey, the journey is half the fun, right?
Tip: Use the structure of the text to guide you.
