On this day, she said to her mother and father, "I'm going to go to college. So can you pay for a tutor starting today?" With that, her father Dong Il (played by Sung Dong Il) said, "Just get tutored from your sister who goes to Seoul National University. His intention was that she should just learn from her older sister and save money.
Nonetheless, Duk Sun thought back to the experience of getting tutored by her sister Bora (played by Ryu Hye Young) and said, 'I'm never going to do this even if I die" and refused. Duk Sun was a person that was ranked 999th place as she was more interested in looks than studying.
