Cast: Yeom Hye-ran, Shin Woo-bin, Choi Jun-woo, Park Ji-bin, Kim Gyu-ri

In 1998, as South Korea edges toward democracy, Young-oak grapples with a name that feels painfully out of place in a testosterone-fueled boys' school. Navigating a brutal hierarchy of corrupt teachers and ruthless teenage power struggles, he desperately searches for a new identity. Meanwhile, his mother Jeong-sun hides a deeply buried past beneath a calm facade—but it's clawing its way back to the surface. Soon, she can no longer avoid the truth, which pulls them both into the haunting shadow of the Jeju Uprising of April 3, 1948.
