(5)The reason why a late-aged examinee in his 70s who passed the College of Oriental Medicine did not register for admission to the university is impressive.
(6)Recently, various online communities have been re-examining anecdotes that came out during Roseley’s Internet lecture, a star instructor in the College Scholastic Ability Test English subject.
(7)At that time, Roseley said during the lecture, “There were all sorts of people among the 2.3 million students.”
(8)Among Roseley’s pupils was a grandfather in his 70s.
(9)Grandfather came to the academy early in the morning to listen to Roseley’s lecture in the front seat.

(11)Why on earth is a grandfather in his 70s coming to take a lecture for the College Scholastic Ability Test? Even students with fast brain rotation find it difficult.
(1)Do you know English class?image text translation
(2)Roseley, who had such a question, asked his grandfather’s student one day, “May I ask why he’s coming to class?”
(3)The answer returned was as follows. My purpose is to study. I want to study and pass the oriental medicine department.
(4)Young students around me giggled at the late student’s answer and couldn’t hold back their laughter. It was a laugh that arose from the doubt that grandfather would be able to go to oriental medicine, which is difficult for even students who are good at studying.
(5)Roseley confessed that she knew as a teacher that she shouldn’t, but that she actually thought that she would do it as well.
(6)Under everyone’s distrust, my grandfather took Roseley’s English class for a year and a half.
(7)A gray-haired grandfather would always have a long year and a half.
(8)I sat in the front seat.
(1)I can’t even fully learn the alphabet. I can’t do anything right.image text translation
(2)The old man, who couldn’t understand it, began to answer questions and nod as half a year passed.
(3)Roseley, who was suppressing his emotional feelings while telling the story, added, “The grandfather has never told me that he is having a hard time.”
(4)And that year, the college entrance exam was held and it was a cold winter day after the college entrance exam.
(5)My grandfather came to the teacher’s office at the academy. I held a black plastic bag tightly in my arms.
(6)The plastic bag contained injeolmi rice cake made from ground rice flour that my grandfather went to the market from dawn.
(7)The grandfather, who held the injeolmi tightly in his arms, said a word because he was afraid it would cool down.
(8)Teacher, I’m done.
(9)Roseley, who greeted her grandfather by congratulating him on getting into oriental medicine, shed tears at the words of her grandfather who followed her.
(10)”But I won’t register.
(1)It’s a dream that I achieved after studying for a year and a half. Why did you go to the oriental medicine school?image text translation
(2)When asked if he was unwilling to do so, his grandfather replied.
(3)I’m from a generation that went through the Korean War, and I’ve been living without anything and raised my children.
(4)My kids are all grown up and I have some free time, so I was able to study what I wanted to do when I was young.
(5)I wanted to study. Study hard. My goal was to get into oriental medicine.
(6)What’s the point of going to oriental medicine school when I’m over seventy?
(7)If I don’t register for school here now, the waiting number 1 student who is eagerly waiting for me.
(8)What a wonderful oriental doctor that young man would be for me.
(9)It’s right to give up.
I want to grow old like that.
Grandpa!
It’s been 4 years, but I hope you stay healthy.
