Content note¶
The chapter contains suicidal performance on a rooftop, emotional manipulation, cyberbullying, account suspension, attempted property damage, and psychological intimidation.
Images 001–003 — Na refuses to reward the rooftop performance¶
The chapter opens on the ongoing livestream. So-rin stands or crouches on a rooftop ledge, telling viewers:
I’M SO EXHAUSTED~
Na and Daniel watch the broadcast from below.
Daniel asks:
SHOULD WE REQUEST LOCATION TRACKING FROM THE POLICE LIKE LAST TIME?
Na answers casually:
JUST LEAVE IT BE~
IT’S ALL JUST A SHOW ANYWAY~
Daniel is alarmed:
WILL EVERYTHING BE FINE IF I JUST FALL?
The exact line appears inside the livestream frame as So-rin wonders whether a fall will finally make everyone support her.
She is suddenly dragged backward from the ledge by nearby adults or responders.
AHHH~! LET GO OF ME~!
People in the livestream comments shout for someone to call police and condemn the Education Rights Protection Agency.
So-rin screams:
LET GO OF ME!
MY LIFE IS RUINED BECAUSE OF THE TEACHERS’ RIGHTS PROTECTION AGENCY! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO LIVE NOW?
The stream abruptly cuts to a police-station exterior.
A grandmother stands beside So-rin and asks:
SO-RIN, WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?
Daniel says:
THIS SITUATION LOOKS DANGEROUS, SENIOR.
Na remains calm and continues watching her account rather than reacting to the spectacle itself.
Images 004–006 — The backlash becomes a new source of attention¶
So-rin looks at her phone and sees comments criticizing the agency and defending her.
She says:
JUST WHAT ARE YOU…?
Then:
WOAH~ WHAT IS THIS??
Her follower count jumps:
MY FOLLOWERS INCREASED BY OVER 2,000 IN JUST A FEW HOURS!
A display shows 2,376 FOLLOWERS.
She has also received hundreds of messages:
AND I’M GETTING TONS OF MESSAGES TOO…
Some tell her to stay strong; others accuse the agency of irresponsibility.
Her grandmother grabs her shoulders:
SO-RIN, ANSWER ME!
EVEN IF I’M UNFAMILIAR WITH CHILDREN’S MATTERS, GRANNY HERE IS WILLING TO LISTEN TO YOUR WORRIES!
TELL ME! WHAT IS BOTHERING YOU SO MUCH? WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?!
So-rin barely hears her. Her attention is entirely fixed on the phone.
She smiles unnaturally:
YOU KNOW, I’M SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW.
The emotional crisis has been replaced by the high of follower growth.
The scene then cuts to Hee-soo’s home.
Images 007–009 — Hee-soo discovers So-rin has become popular¶
Someone knocks.
Hee-soo asks:
WHO IS IT?
A blonde girl arrives and waves:
HELLO, HEE-SOO UNNIE!
She says she heard Hee-soo has not come out since the confrontation and asks whether it is true.
The visitor mocks Hee-soo’s defeat:
DID YOU HAVE ABOUT IT? WE JUST HAD A BIT OF MISUNDERSTANDING, BUT THE TEACHERS’ RIGHTS PROTECTION AGENCY MADE A BIG DEAL OUT OF IT.
She presses her face close and asks:
AREN’T YOU FRUSTRATED WITH LIVING LIKE THIS, ALWAYS HIDING?
IF YOU FOLLOW MY ADVICE, YOU’LL BE ABLE TO WALK AROUND CONFIDENTLY TOO.
Hee-soo asks:
DO YOU WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT?
The blonde girl shows off newly bleached hair:
HOW DO I LOOK?
I TRIED BLEACHING MY HAIR, DO YOU THINK IT’S PRETTY?
Then reveals the real proposition:
YOU SAID IT YOURSELF, UNNIE~ WHERE THERE’S A FOOL, THERE’S BOUND TO BE A SCAMMER~
WE HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE ON OUR SIDE NOW~ LET’S TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO BECOME POPULAR~!
Hee-soo’s expression darkens.
HEY… WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW?
She throws the visitor out:
PRETTY~? STOP BEING RIDICULOUS! DID YOU COME HERE BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO DIE?!
GET OUT! DON’T EVER COME BACK!
The visitor staggers into the hallway and calls Hee-soo crazy.
Images 010–012 — So-rin recasts herself as a reborn victim¶
The blonde girl begins a livestream in a parking lot.
Her opening line is theatrical:
NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT CLEARLY, IF I HAD DIED LIKE THAT, I WOULD JUST BE A FOOL.
SO, I’VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT WHAT TO DO, AND…
She announces:
TA-DA~! THE TEACHERS’ RIGHTS PROTECTION AGENCY DESTROYED THEIR IMAGE!
The phrase is scanlation-awkward; the scene shows her presenting an agency vehicle as the symbol of her revenge.
HELLO EVERYONE, THIS IS SO-RIN.
I’M ALIVE AND WELL. I TRIED BLEACHING MY HAIR TO SHOW THAT I WAS REBORN. DOESN’T IT LOOK PRETTY?
She thanks supporters:
THANKS TO ALL YOUR SUPPORTIVE MESSAGES, I GAINED STRENGTH. YOU GUYS SAVED ME.
She claims to have reflected:
AFTER THINKING IT THROUGH, I REALIZED THAT I WASN’T AT FAULT BUT THE TEACHERS’ RIGHTS PROTECTION AGENCY.
She points toward the parked agency car:
THAT CAR OVER THERE BELONGS TO THE TEACHERS’ RIGHTS PROTECTION AGENCY, RIGHT?
HOW DID I FIND IT? WELL… THESE DAYS, THE TEACHERS’ RIGHTS PROTECTION AGENCY IS ALL OVER SOCIAL MEDIA, INCLUDING WHERE THEY GO.
She walks toward it:
ALRIGHT, I’LL BE ON MY WAY THEN.
Then lowers her voice:
SHH~! I’M GOING TO SMASH THAT CAR NOW!
Images 013–015 — Her account is permanently banned¶
So-rin places the phone on a tripod and tries to position it so the car remains visible.
IF THE PHONE IS THAT FAR, THEY WON’T SEE ME PROPERLY, RIGHT?
SHOULD I ZOOM IN… OR MOVE THE PHONE CLOSER…?
The livestream suddenly disappears.
A system notice reads:
YOUR ACCOUNT HAS BEEN PERMANENTLY BANNED FOR MULTIPLE VIOLATIONS OF THE COMMUNITY GUIDELINES.
So-rin panics:
WHAT THE…!! WHAT IS THIS?!
THE BROADCAST TURNED OFF!
She shakes the phone:
GUIDELINES VIOLATION…?
A PERMANENT BAN…?
Her first concern is not the crime she was about to commit:
WHAT ABOUT MY FOLLOWERS AND COMMENTS…?
The screen remains unavailable.
She tries to convince herself that supporters remain elsewhere:
LOOK AT THIS! EVERYONE IS ON MY SIDE!
AS EXPECTED, PEOPLE DISLIKE THE TEACHERS’ RIGHTS PROTECTION AGENCY!
Na and Daniel step into the parking lot behind her.
Na says:
OH NO… THIS IS REALLY UNFORTUNATE.
So-rin turns in shock.
Images 016–018 — Na reveals that the agency arranged the ban¶
Na admits:
I WANTED TO SEE JUST HOW FAR THIS MADNESS WOULD GO…
So-rin recognizes them:
Y-YOU…
She accuses:
IT WAS YOU, WASN’T IT?! YOU GOT MY ACCOUNT PERMANENTLY BANNED, RIGHT?!
Na asks:
HUH? WHAT COULD WE POSSIBLY HAVE DONE…?
Then explains that the platform would not ignore itself being used for criminal activity.
THE SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANY ISN’T STUPID. WOULD THEY JUST IGNORE IT IF THEIR PLATFORM IS BEING USED FOR CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES?
ESPECIALLY SINCE YOU’RE PROMOTING VIOLENCE, WHICH IS KNOWN AS THE “BANE OF SOCIAL MEDIA” THESE DAYS, YOU’RE DONE FOR~
A caption or aside indicates that the agency tipped the social-media company with evidence.
Students nearby notice the confrontation.
HEY, OVER THERE!
IT’S REALLY IT! I WAS REALLY AROUND OUR SCHOOL!
They begin filming and laughing.
SHE’S HOLDING A HAMMER! IT LOOKS LIKE SHE’S REALLY TRYING TO DESTROY THE CAR!
So-rin’s humiliation becomes public in the physical world rather than safely mediated through her own account.
Images 019–021 — Daniel diagnoses confirmation bias¶
So-rin shouts at the bystanders:
YOU BROUGHT THEM HERE, DIDN’T YOU?!
Na answers lightly:
SURE~ THINK OF IT AS YOU WANT~
A boy comments:
IT’S OBVIOUSLY YOUR FAULT FOR GETTING BANNED!
Another asks whether she feels sorry for the victims.
So-rin screams:
HEY, YOU GUYS! LISTEN TO ME!
The crowd does not respond with the sympathy she expected.
WHAT’S WITH THEIR REACTION…?
THIS IS NOT WHAT I EXPECTED…
Na says:
AT FIRST I DIDN’T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU WERE DOING THIS, BUT NOW…
Daniel continues:
I THINK I UNDERSTAND.
I’VE ANALYZED YOUR ACCOUNT HISTORY.
MOST OF THE PEOPLE WERE AGAINST YOU, BUT THERE WERE ALSO A FEW WHO DEFENDED YOU.
THE FREQUENCY WAS ABOUT ONE IN TEN.
He explains:
YOU ONLY LOOKED AT THE COMMENTS YOU WANTED TO AND THOUGHT THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE ON YOUR SIDE INCREASED.
ISN’T THIS WHAT THEY CALL CONFIRMATION BIAS…?
The nearby students question whether the agency’s work infringes freedom of expression and ask what the guidance means.
Na sums So-rin up:
ATTENTION SEEKER WITH CONFIRMATION BIAS, HUH…
THIS IS QUITE A SEVERE CASE.
Images 022–023 — Na destroys the phone¶
Na reaches for So-rin’s phone.
COME BACK TO REALITY.
He smashes it against the pavement with a single downward strike. The device explodes into glass and fragments.
IT’S TIME TO LEAVE THAT WORLD NOW.
So-rin screams:
AH…!
The chapter ends on her horrified face and the broken phone.
Chapter-level continuity notes¶
The rescue from the rooftop does not resolve the addiction¶
Once the stream produces thousands of followers and supportive messages, So-rin feels happier rather than chastened. The suicidal threat is immediately absorbed into a new identity as a persecuted survivor.
The grandmother cannot compete with the phone¶
A real caregiver physically holds So-rin and offers unconditional listening. So-rin ignores her because the anonymous audience provides measurable, rapidly increasing attention.
So-rin tries to imitate the agency’s public tactics¶
She proposes livestreaming the destruction of an agency vehicle to regain control of the story. The act is not private revenge; it is planned as a performance for followers.
The ban removes the feedback loop¶
Losing the account terrifies her more than being caught with a hammer. Followers, comments, and viewer counts had become the structure through which she understood reality.
Daniel identifies selective perception¶
The supportive comments were a minority. So-rin mentally discarded the overwhelming criticism and treated the small defending group as evidence that everyone supported her.
Destroying the phone is symbolic and coercive¶
Na does not claim the physical device caused every problem. He breaks the immediate access point and tells her she must return to a world where other people do not exist merely as numbers, comments, or an audience.
