This chapter opens with a conversation between Mingyu and Mingyu's father. Mingyu is worried about his son's stomach, which he says is caused by Mingyu not paying attention to his food. He tells Mingyu that he will not allow Mingyu to join the school's basketball team. He also tells him that the school plans to train the students into athletics students. He says that Mingyu needs to pass in order to enter the athletics program. He asks Mingyu about his father's education, which Mingyu says is not good. He adds that he believes in Mingyu because he believes that he is a good student. He then tells Mingy that they have lived in the same room for three years, and that he even shares a double bed with Mingyu
