WHY...
WHY DO YOU THINK THAT?
HE'S ALWAYS MESSING WITH ME.
BUT HE ACTS TOTALLY DIFFERENT AROUND YOU.
PRETENDING TO BE NICE, BEING ALL SWEET...
AND HIS FACE GETS SO GREASY. GROSS.
YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY.
IF SOMEONE TREATS YOU DIFFERENTLY THAN THEY TREAT EVERYONE ELSE...
...IT MEANS THEY ACTUALLY LIKE YOU.
THAT'S WHY I GOT SUSPICIOUS.
YOU REALLY DON'T KNOW HIM.
FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN...
THE WAY JINYOUNG TREATS ME IS PROBABLY HOW HE USUALLY IS.
I DON'T DISLIKE JINYOUNG, BUT HE'S A BIT HARD TO APPROACH.
IT FEELS LIKE HE'S DRAWING A LINE.
HE'S SO POLITE AND PRINCE-LIKE.
I CAN'T EVEN JOKE AROUND WITH HIM.
BUT SINCE WE'RE ON A SIMILAR WAVELENGTH...
I WAS ABLE TO STAY ON GOOD TERMS WITH HIM FOR A LONG TIME WITHOUT FEELING UNCOMFORTABLE.
YOU TWO ALWAYS SEEMED A BIT OFF WHEN YOU MET, SO I THOUGHT THERE WAS SOMETHING GOING ON.
I GUESS YOU'RE NOT REALLY INTERESTED?
Y-YEAH.
JINYOUNG AND I JUST KNOW EACH OTHER BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN IN THE SAME MUSIC CLUB SINCE WE WERE KIDS...
REALLY?
THAT'S TOO BAD.
I WISH HE'D JUST START DATING SOMEONE SO HE'D STOP BOTHERING ME.
HE'S ALWAYS CALLING ME TO JAM, IT'S SO ANNOYING.
WHAT A STRANGE GUY.
MAYBE SHE'S MISTAKEN...
...OR MAYBE I AM.
EITHER WAY, TO HER OR TO ME...
JINYOUNG IS JUST A FRIEND RIGHT NOW.
LET'S NOT OVERTHINK IT.
KYAAH!!
I DIDN'T KNOW WE WERE IN THE SAME CLASS!
?!
LUCKY!
SO GOOD TO SEE YOU!
I WAS ACTUALLY LOOKING ALL OVER FOR YOU.
SINCE YOU'RE IN THE CLASSICAL MUSIC DEPARTMENT, I DIDN'T THINK WE'D RUN INTO EACH OTHER. IT MUST BE FATE! ♥
W-WHAT'S WITH HER?
WE MET AGAIN...
Why is she acting so friendly?
THERE WAS SOMETHING I ABSOLUTELY HAD TO ASK YOU!
OH, YES...
WHAT IS IT?
YOU KNOW THAT PRE-MED GUY WHO GOT SUPER DRUNK AT THE CHICKEN PLACE!
THE TEACHING ASSISTANT SAID YOU TWO SEEMED TO HAVE SOMETHING GOING ON~
COULD IT BE~
ARE YOU TWO DATING?!
...HUH?!
N-NO, WE'RE NOT!
WE'RE JUST CLASSMATES! OLD SCHOOL FRIENDS...
AHA!
WHAT A RELIEF!
I KNEW IT!
THEN...
COULD YOU GIVE ME HIS NUMBER?
HE'S TOTALLY MY TYPE~
I JUST HAVE TO KNOW!
I CAN'T JUST GIVE OUT SOMEONE ELSE'S NUMBER.
?!
AND...
I DON'T EVEN HAVE HIS NUMBER TO BEGIN WITH.
We just know each other's faces. We're not that close.
Really?
Yes.
AW, WHAT A BUMMER.
GOT IT~
TOO BAD~
I DO HAVE HIS NUMBER.
SINCE WE WERE IN THE SAME CLASS.
BUT...
SHE'S SO RUDE.
Just as bad as her personality...
I HOPE I DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH HER ANYMORE.
Pff
BUT SHE KEPT...
ACTING LIKE WE WERE CLOSE WHILE SUBTLY MOCKING ME.
SHE WAS SMILING, BUT I COULD TELL.
THIS GIRL...
REALLY DIDN'T LIKE ME.
HEY, LOOK. THAT MUST BE HER.
THE CLASSICAL PIANO FRESHMAN.
SHE'S AS PRETTY AS THEY SAY.
I HEARD SHE'S REALLY TALENTED AND SUPER NICE, TOO.
I'M SO JEALOUS OF THE CLASSICAL MUSIC DEPARTMENT.
WHY IS OUR APPLIED MUSIC PIANO MAJOR SO BOY-CRAZY AND...
SHH, QUIET. SHE'LL HEAR YOU.
LET HER.
SHE REALLY NEEDS TO KNOW.
Always acting pretty, Playing dumb, and Picking fights...
WHY ARE THEY COMPARING US LIKE THAT?
IT JUST MAKES THINGS MORE AWKWARD...
BUT SINCE SHE DIDN’T PICK ANY MORE DIRECT FIGHTS,
I THOUGHT THINGS WOULD STAY PEACEFUL AS LONG AS I KEPT QUIET.
WITHOUT REALIZING...
THAT SHE WAS LOOKING FOR ANY CHANCE...
TO DRAG ME DOWN.
SERIOUSLY, DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?!
HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU IT'S MINE?!
I'M TELLING YOU, YOU MUST BE MISTAKEN.
THAT IS DEFINITELY MINE...
WHAT'S GOING ON?
I THINK THEY'RE FIGHTING.
A CLORÉ HAND CREAM!
I'M TELLING YOU, IT'S MINE!
T-THEN YOU MUST HAVE MISTAKEN IT BECAUSE THEY LOOK THE SAME.
YOURS MUST BE SOMEWHERE ELSE.
IT'S REALLY PRECIOUS TO ME, SO PLEASE GIVE IT BACK...
SERIOUSLY, WHY DO YOU KEEP INSISTING?!
I SAID IT'S MINE!
THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE.
STEALING MY STUFF LIKE IT'S YOURS...
ARE YOU JEALOUS OF ME?!
WHAT?!
YOU GOT IN THROUGH EQUAL OPPORTUNITY ADMISSION!!
HOW COULD SOMEONE LIKE YOU AFFORD A LUXURY HAND CREAM?!
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY ADMISSION: A SPECIAL ADMISSION TRACK DESIGNED FOR SOCIALLY OR ECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED STUDENTS, SUCH AS LOW-INCOME FAMILIES OR SINGLE-PARENT HOUSEHOLDS.
I HEARD ALL ABOUT YOU FROM THE CLASSICAL MUSIC DEPARTMENT KIDS.
DO YOU KNOW HOW COMPETITIVE CLASSICAL MUSIC ADMISSIONS ARE?
MOST OF THEM DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO YOU ARE BECAUSE YOU BARELY ENTERED ANY COMPETITIONS!
DID YOU THINK THEY WERE THAT CLUELESS WHEN YOU SUDDENLY SHOWED UP?
IF YOU GOT IN THROUGH A LOOPHOLE INSTEAD OF ACTUAL TALENT, YOU SHOULD KEEP A LOW PROFILE.
BUT EVEN A BEGGAR KNOWS WHAT'S GOOD, HUH...!
Classic
AH,
AND ANOTHER THING.
YOU'RE SERIOUSLY FRUSTRATING.
NEXT TIME A BITCH LIKE YE-EUN DO PISSES YOU OFF, SAY SOMETHING BACK.
OKAY?
I'VE ALWAYS BEEN LIKE THIS,
AND I UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE YOUR OWN PERSONALITY, BUT...
FOR YOU TO BE WHERE YOU ARE TODAY,
THERE MUST HAVE BEEN PEOPLE WHO CARED FOR YOU AND DID THEIR BEST.
PEOPLE LIKE HER AREN'T JUST INSULTING YOU-
THEY'RE INSULTING ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE, TOO.
MY SWEET LITTLE PUPPY.
MY LITTLE PUPPY PLAYS THE PIANO SO BEAUTIFULLY...
I'M SORRY GRANDMA COULDN'T GIVE YOU EVERYTHING YOU WANTED.
I TOLD A FRIEND OF MINE WHO RUNS A PREP ACADEMY ABOUT YOU.
THEY SAID THEY'D LIKE TO MEET YOU.
BUT YOU MUST PROMISE TO DO YOUR ABSOLUTE BEST.
SEONYUL. I STILL THINK YOU'RE A GENIUS.
LET'S WORK HARD AND APPLY TO EVERY TRACK WE CAN.
Let's go!
I'LL LOOK INTO IT FOR YOU, TOO.
I'M JUST A SCHOOL MUSIC TEACHER, BUT...
AS YOUR HOMEROOM TEACHER,
I'M SORRY I COULDN'T DO MORE FOR YOU.

COLLEGE OF MUSIC, PIANO DEPARTMENT
MY FRIEND IS GOING TO HANKUK UNIVERSITY'S COLLEGE OF MUSIC!
THIS IS AMAZING!!
CONGRATULATIONS, SEONYUL!
SEONYUL, YOU'RE THE ABSOLUTE BEST!
I HEARD PIANISTS CHERISH THEIR HANDS THE MOST,
AND I FIGURED YOU WOULD TOO.
...I THINK YOU'RE REALLY AMAZING.
I'LL BE ROOTING FOR YOU.
Chloré
OUCH...!
AH,
YOU...
SO YOU'RE JUST GOING TO ACT OUT NOW?
YOU'RE JUST AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY STUDENT...!
...THE REASON I DIDN'T GET MAD AT YOUR WORDS
WASN'T BECAUSE I AGREED WITH THAT NONSENSE.
USING A LEGITIMATE ADMISSION TRACK AND A SIMPLE HAND CREAM
TO DESPERATELY PUT ME DOWN JUST WASN'T WORTH RESPONDING TO.
BUT LISTENING TO YOU KEEP GOING,
IT'S JUST RIDICULOUS...
...HEY.
IS IT MY FAULT THAT YOU FEEL SO WORTHLESS?
KEEP YOUR INFERIORITY COMPLEX TO YOURSELF.
STOP TAKING IT OUT ON OTHERS.
Trapped Together Chapter 11 follows Seon-Yul as she is shaken by the misunderstanding about Jinyoung and her harsh confrontation with Ye-eun. First, it is discussed that Jinyoung is an acquaintance from the childhood music club and that he does not act differently. Then a girl from the same class asks about the medical student from the chicken restaurant and asks for his number, and later Ye-eun starts a fight over the Chloré hand cream and belittles Seon-Yul for getting in through the equal opportunity quota.
