New story by Soonkki, author of Cheese in the trap!

The title says it all, we are off to a new journey! It’s like a Christmas present since it launched on Christmas day, although it was still Christmas Eve for me (24th December)You can find it here:

It’s in Korean, but there is hope for an English translation! Please visit it, the more views and likes the better the chanchesfor an English translation plus it helps Soonkki as well! Let’s support her! In the meantime, I’m studying diligently Korean - I’m working on a translation but I still know too little so I won’t share it here.

I can’t really give a proper translation for the title but I think it’s something like ‘What happened at Apple Middleschool towards the end of the century‘ (I took some liberties with that one) Goggle and Papago gave the following translations:

End of the century green apple tutoring academy (Google)

Foot apple moisturizing institute at the end of the century (Papago)

As you can see, I took the easy path and shortened the name of the school to Apple. Previously Cheese, now Apple. Food is greatly appreciated.

What is this new story about? Hwang Mi-ae (Mi-ae is her given name) is in her last year of middle school (so about 15-16 years old) meets an old acquaintance when he transfers to her school. His name is Kim Chul. They met when Mi-ae was 10 and spent some time on the countryside (summer vacation, I think, but I’m not sure). They are teased as "Chul and Mi-ae" (I guess they tease them claiming they like each other) and both are very upset about it, to the point that they pretend to not know each other. A series of strange events happen, they meet new people, get in trouble and on top of that Mi-ae has to deal with beeing a teenager as well - puberty, growing up and that stuff.

Some fun facts I gathered from the first 2 chapters that are available for free right now:

Mi-ae’s first impression on Kim Chul was: So big! Both when she met him in the past and in the present. In the past, she extended that to his dad as well, she thought both of them are big.

Kim Chul gets into fights and gets angry easily.

Mi-ae dislikes beans and is not really a diligent student, she hides her comic books in her schoolbooks to read them secretly (and gets caught).

It’s in a teaser picture naver-webtoon posted on Instagram, Miae and Chul will have to sit next to each other (fourth picture and last picture):

I’m trying to do a summary but I’m really slow woth translating so I’m not even done with the first chapter but I already shared what I have so far in a separate post.

And as a closing, Mi-ae and some of her classmates (from Chapter 2) as a teaser. I do not own this picture, I just edited the transcribed names into the picture (and translated that one line under the names):

Soonkki’s new story, named Apple School for now, summary attempt - chapter 1

Since I want to talk about it so badly, I’ll attempt to do a summary of at least the first chapter. I’m not even finished translating it but I’ll add to the summary as I move forward. Please note that my Korean is very basic and I heavily rely on the translator Papago. So I may not be accurate at some places.

If you find a more accurate English source, please don’t hesitate to share. :)

Let’s get started. While  out girl, Mi-ae fights beans (she dislikes them) her mom tells her that an aquintance is going to move into their neighborhood. Mi-ae calls that person unnie aka big sis so she is likely not very much older than she is. Mi-ae’s mom tells her that there is a boy as well and she remembers the family from a previous trip to the countryside. She asks her mom why they move to their neighborhood but her mom scolds her for not eating the beans instead.

She seems to like romance comics but she’s not interested in an article titled My childhood friend suddenly looks like a man (My personal thoughts: this may connect to issues Miae is going to go through as a teen, growing up) She gets  the first issue of a comic and happily runs off. On her way to school she sees another old aquitance a boy who is the same age as her and used to live in the building next to her home. She remembers her elementary school days, how this boy called her names (Scarlet Hwang, according to the translator), ruined their game and kept picking on her, calling her small. He even shot her while she looked at the sky with binoculars. (It’s a hobby of hers) And as you can clearly see, Mi-ae doesn’t just meekly take it at this point but rushes out screaming she’s going to pay it back today and her parents are chasing after her. She narrates that the two of them weren’t on good terms.

The parents apologize and acknowledge their kid did wrong (Both kid’s parents) using formal language. Miae proudly tells her father that she won. After that her mom wanted a word with her daughter but Miae knows her and ran already off, with her mom after her and her father trying to hold back her mom, telling her not to get upset. And the shoes, Miae should run with her shoes on her feet. Miae narrates that this girl was good at running. She became a middle school student whose name is... and that’s when that guy calls out her name and tells her he wants to talk to her. He says he’s moving to Seoul and there is one last thing he wanted to confess. And that is... he used to like her. Miae doesn’t feel anything, just wants to go home quickly to read her new comic and even she is surprised that she didn’t feel anything. Next in her comic, there is also a confession, with the exact same words. The small section is titled this is differnt - a confession in a comic book and in real life although the words are the same, are different. Miae’s mom asks if she’s studying and she says yes - she’s hiding her comic behind a schoolbook. She remembers she always had friends from around. Some moved away, some transferred to a different school (and the class cried no matter if they were colose to that kid or not) and the promise to exchange letters didn’t really seem to work out. Her mom even wants her to throw away that bunch of letters he has (those were given as a farewell gift, I think)

The boy screams Take care to her as he’s leaving. Next, it is explained how entrance exams for high scool were introduced, not everywhere but at many places, to set a standard and ease tha burden of constant studying for the kids. Miae will soon be in her thirdyear that is the last in middle school so she’ll have to take the exam, too. She’s jealous of the boy who just moved, since in Seoul she would have to take the exam. (I got this wrong, first, I think then she only needs to worry about one exam and not care for her grades all year) She’s whining to her parents to move to Seoul, too. But her dad has to leave, offering to bring chicken on the way home (and Miae gets distracted by it) and her mom gives her the usual answer, asking her if it’s a joke and telling Miae would have to earn the money herselfand that she should study instead. Miae says she can’t Her mom tops her advice to her with telling Miae to do something about her hair (that’s why she has bangs after that panel). She moans and thinks she hates to be a middle school student. The next part is possibly her imagination, she imagines how her parents would act when the time comes to prepare for the exam. her mom aims for a high ranked school and her dad has brought her mock exams and books to hep her study.Miae lets out her frustration outside with the help of a skipping rope and she is screaming.She can’t do anything about those difficulties.

At school her friend , Lee Yoon Hee tells her she signed up for an academy (I think she means cram school, to prepare them for their last year and stuff) and tells Miae she should come as well but of course Miae doesn’t want to, saying they study 6 hours a day at school and after that, they should go to an academy to study more is crazy. Her friend replies she wants to go to college. Miae than notices that their break is almos over and runs over to the staffroom to get back a comicbook - she likely got caught reading it dutring class and the teacher took it from her. He scolds her while giving it back, telling her that she’ll be in her last year soon and she needs to do better if she wants to go to high school and such. On her way back she sees Kim Chul who is accompanied by his mom. The mom tells him the usual things like he should straighten his clothes. Miae stares at him and even saying out loud how big he is. There is gossip from students like what high school he is from based on his uniform (they like it better then their own uniform) and why his face is bruised. Miae  overhears someone talking in the staffroom (door’s not yet closed) that the school uniform was the right size for him right when he bought it. She’s jealous and wants to be tall as well and have a uniform that fits her perfectly (I assume they buy bigger ones than their exact sizes so they won’t have to buy a new one becuse of growing too much). She complains that she likely won’t grow taller and that her mom doesn’t let her do anything to the uniform. Then she realizes she has to hurry back to class. Then she stops for a moment and remembers her mother telling her about him transferring to her school and that is why they are moving to their neighborhood. Some older memories come up, too, with Miae chasing after a boy and screaming let’s go together. She then realizes that the boy from the memory and the one he just saw are the same person (Kim Chul but she doesn’t think abut his name)

End of chapter 1

eStorm's Open Day at Redlands College

This week eStorm visited Redlands College, Queensland’s top Apple school, to host an Open Day for selected schools to attend.

The day consisted of a tour around the college, showcasing how the school uses Apple products to best suit their learning requirements, followed by an information session with the eStorm team.

Redlands College and eStorm’s open day provided attending schools a great insight into how to successfully use Apple products to enhance their learning facility. eStorm would like to thank Redlands College for exhibiting their school, as well as all of the schools who attended the day.
