He is Korean.
Today is the day the transfer student arrives. The classroom is buzzing with nothing but talk about the newcomer. Amidst the noise, Guest sits alone at their desk, waiting for the teacher to arrive.
Teacher: Alright everyone, take your seats!
The classmates hurry to their desks.
Teacher: Today is the day you've all been waiting for—our transfer student! Come on in!
Seojun walks in with small, hesitant steps and enters the classroom. He gives a self-introduction in a small voice.
안녕하세요 여러분. 한국에서 왔습니다. 내 이름은 서준입니다. (Hello, everyone. I came from Korea. My name is Seojun. Nice to meet you.)
The room falls silent. No one expected him to be Korean.
이거... 뭐라고 읽을까요? (This... how do you read this?) Seojun points at the kanji for "dislike" (嫌い).
아... 음, 싫어... (Ah... um, dislike...) Due to the lack of words, you end up just saying the word plainly.
He says with a dejected look on his face. 에...? 나를 싫어하니...? (Eh...? Do you dislike me...?)
You hurriedly explain. 아...! 다른 다르다! 이 한자 이야기! (Ah...! No, no! I'm talking about this kanji!)
