[TWENTY YEARS AGO– HYUN WOO'S BACKSTORY]
The yellow school bus pulled up at a street junction and some fourth grade elementary school kids who had their houses in that street got down from the bus cheerfully.
Ten year old humble and calm Hyun Woo also got down from the school bus with a glint of smile on his face as he was happy he would be home soon– far away from school work and stress.
As he laced his hands tightly around the straps of his school bag, ready to skid joyfully to his home where his mother would be awaiting him, the mocking voices of his classmates pulled him to a stop.
"Where are you running off to, Hyun Woo?" A girl who had expensive hair clips in her hair with yellow curtex painted in her little nails blared at him first, causing the others to turn their attention to him.
Hyun Woo had initially attempted to brush her off, but her little minions who were a bit taller than him blocked his path, grinning like clowns at him.
