In South Korea, where the bright lights of technology mix with ancient traditions, there is a darker undercurrent that silently engulfs many people's lives: the widespread problem of school bullying. In the tangle of tiny streets and high buildings, school corridors reverberate with the sufferings of individuals who are subjected to continuous bullying.
Korea, with its rich cultural tapestry, is bound by the intricate web of societal expectations. Within the walls of schools, a dark story develops, as bullying is frequently overlooked or rejected by both parents and teachers. The deeply rooted hierarchy and cultural forces contribute to an environment in which the suffering of the bullied is dismissed.
Bullying, a widespread problem, is not always addressed with the seriousness it deserves. Parents, burdened by their own expectations and social conventions, may minimise or overlook indicators of distress in their children. The emphasis on academic performance and conformity fosters an environment in which speaking out against bullying is viewed as a challenge to the status quo.
Teachers, typically distracted by huge class loads and scholastic requirements, wrongly ignore minor symptoms of bullying. Fear of harming the school's reputation or facing administrative issues can result in a systemic inability to address the problem adequately.
The consequences, however, are significant. Students dealing with the emotional toll of bullying may become caught in a web of despair, which can lead to depression and, in the worst-case scenario, suicide. The silence surrounding this epidemic is a barrier to getting care, worsening the victims' mental health challenges.
Despite the severity of the issue, 'Law' can't deal with it. Minors can't be put in jail like criminals. One restriction has made these minors monsters, revealing the true nature of humanity: to look for joy in others's suffering and get addicted to this sensation.
Every day the weak suffer in school while a few immature brats in the spirit of superiority become 'bullies', everyone knows, but no one acts. That's the severity of the situation, but today... A change erupted in the heart of Seoul, as today at Haeseong High School, bullies were actually looked down upon by a few sheep that were forever preyed upon.
"What the..."
"Hey, are you watching this?"
"Holy fuck, are you seeing this?"
"Damn! He really got his face smashed...'
The eyes of these students were all cold and creepy. The gazes looking at Jake and his friends walking down from the roof with blood stains on their shirts and thoroughly smashed faces were shivering with rage and frustration even more as they saw those eyes looking at them.
The little muttering sound felt like a loudly ringing, chaotic sound of drums for them, and this was the first time they felt so frustrated. The moment Jason overpowered them was a moment of overflowing despair that came like a storm, but now that the storm had left, it had left behind thousands of bees buzzing around, stinging without even stinging needles at them.
"What the hell..."
"That fucker, he had been hiding his skills."
"Fuck?! This is way too humiliating... We really can't let him go."
The three friends of Jake commented as they quietly walked down the hallway, as school had already ended and students were leaving for their houses.
"These fuckers... Now even these sheep are telling us."
"Our time is way too rough!"
"Bastard!"
The more time went on, the more rage came out of their souls. As they walked down the streets after school, their eyes had even more anger, and that anger was shared by Jake too as he took out his phone and dialled up a number.
"That fucker... That rich bastard must have received from the instructor his parent's money and took some drugs to make his body! These sons of a bitches"
Just as he was muttering, suddenly the other side received his call as a rough voice came out.
[Hello...]
"Hyung, this is Jake Yoon; I have a favour to ask."
[Oh my~ Jake, been months since you called me, wussup?]
"Hyung, there is a guy from my classroom; recently, that bastard has been getting too arrogant with the backing of some big guy from outside; that fucker is some pro; can you assist me with taking care of him?"
[500,000 Won!]
"Hyung that's-"
[500,000 per person; that's our usual price, but let's see for my little cute punching rabbit... I guess 600,000 for both would be good, right?
The voice from the other side sounded cold, and the sweats on Jake's scalp were far more than even when he was facing Jason before. It was a scary feeling that made him sweat his heart out even while the person talking to him wasn't even present in front of him.
"Alright, Hyung, I will get the photo and money."
[Alright]
Jake just sucked it up with gritted teeth and did exactly as instructed, while as the other party ended the call, it revealed the face of that man dealing with Jake.
He had a huge scar around his nose reaching up to the centre of his forehead, a scary wound clearly showing what kind of job he does for a living. He had dyed his hair dark red that matched well with his brown eyes, making him look far fierce.
"Oye, I got a call from the jumping bunny~ the money is here lol~ I guess we can go party hard today with this money, get the bats."
"Oh, finally some fun!"
"I almost turned to statue with so much free time~"
"Let's move some muscles, lol~"
The one talking didn't seem to be alone, as several people of age around 20 were all sitting over in that room, which was their base filled with drinks, snacks, and what not, which was very fit for some local delinquents.
"Let's see what these bastards look like."
He smirked as he took the phone and started downloading the sent images. The first was of Jason, while he still looked quite fragile.
"Lmao~ this pussy is making jumping bunnies afraid!? Hahaha! The quality of the lads is really lacking, and the other one is"
It was the image of Lucas that was taken by one of the students while he came to Jason's school to pick him up on his bike before the winter vacations. The delinquent was really surprised as the image came out.
"Quite handsome."
"Indeed"
Suddenly goosebumps ran out throughout his body as he suddenly heard an unknown voice right behind his face, and suddenly, as he turned back to look, it was the face of Jason hanging behind him like a cold demon.
"W.h.a.t.s.u.p."
As Lucas said it, he immediately grabbed the top of the head of that bastard like a grip of basketball, and instantly, the next second, all the others standing inside the room stood up in shock.
"Who is this bastard!?"
"Oye! What are the lads doing outside!?"
"How did this fucker get in?"
"Grab the bats!!!"
All instantly gripped the baseball bats and other such things that can be used as weapons lying around the room and instantly rushed in towards Lucas, but before they could take even one proper step towards Lucas, suddenly their legs stopped.
"O-oye..."
"What do you think you are doing!?"
"This bastard! Release him!?"
"F-fuck!?"
Their voices were all filled with fear, in absolute shock and panic, as the Lucas they were trying to attack just a second ago was seen tightly gripping the head of their leader, the one who had received the request from Jake a second ago, and on the other hand of Lucas was a sharp-edged iron rod he had casually found in the room.
"F-fuck! Everyone back off! Back off, or he will kill me!!!"
The fear in his face was real; the eyes he was seeing on the face of Lucas were those of a beast. He never once doubted that Lucas would not hesitate to burst his head off in a moment.
The room was dead silent; from overwhelming rage a moment ago, now all faces were that of overwhelming fear as they slowly started to step back.
"My, oh my, you should finish the school matters inside the school. These fuckers, are you seriously thinking you are some mafia or something? Lol, that punching bunny, is that nickname of 'Jake'? Hah! That's hella funny~ lol lol lol lol~
But well, I admit my fault; I shouldn't have beaten up school brats to begin with. Well, then..."
Lucas suddenly stopped laughing and tossed the iron rod in his hands aside while also releasing his grip from the throat of that delinquent, and with open arms at the corner of the room filled with delinquents, he coldly challenged
"I give you a chance... Beat me if you can."
As Lucas said that, the faces filled with sweats suddenly started to curl up, grins on their faces. Then, suddenly, their leader with a scar on his face stood from his seat, where Lucas had grabbed him by the throat, and while immediately grabbing a metal bat from the ground, he coldly commented.
"This fucker has gone crazy! Fuck him!!!"
As he roared, suddenly all these tiny devils stood, filled with excitement and grins with blood pumping, and all rushed over Jason at once, standing without anything in his hand, but still, the confidence in his eyes was overwhelming.
"Thanks for the warmup."
