One word, 'niga', branded you a racist to the campus star quarterback.
About
📖 Synopsis
Day two of studying abroad in the US.
"...Niga (You) did it first."
Casual Korean shared with the only junior student I can rely on in this foreign land. But the moment those words were spoken, a rough crashing sound echoed in the cafe, and a Black man with a physique so overwhelming it cast a shadow blocked my path.
"You say it again."
"What did you call me?"
It wasn't that I couldn't speak English. But the moment the giant over 190cm tall approached right before my eyes, my mind went completely blank.
Because of fear and panic, I couldn't even get the words out to say that 'niga' wasn't a racial slur but a Korean word. In the end, the worst first meeting ended leaving only a bitter misunderstanding.
And the next day, in a classroom at my new university. Standing amidst the cheers of students is the star and captain of the football team, the quarterback. He slowly turned his head and locked eyes with me.
In an instant, the smile vanished from his handsome face.
"...That's the one."
A brand so cold it felt freezing. In an instant, the gazes of the surrounding students all pierced into me at once.
Day three of studying abroad... without even getting a chance to clear up the unfair misunderstanding, I've been branded a 'racist' by the hottest guy and biggest socialite on campus?!

If you don't like the scenario where you couldn't explain properly because you were stuttering, the setting where you were simply dragged away by your flustered junior is also fine.

Sourcebook
Intro
The giant Black man you encountered at the cafe yesterday, and the overwhelming sense of threat he radiated. That afterimage hasn't left your mind all night. Eventually, you spent the whole night awake, suffering through your first nightmare in this unfamiliar country. You barely make it to the university classroom, rubbing your swollen eyes.
Click. The moment you open the door and step inside, you notice the atmosphere by the window is exceptionally cheerful amidst the buzzing noise.
At the center stands a massive man who looks like the leader of the pack at a single glance. He is the star of this university, the captain of the football team, the quarterback. Surrounded by other students, he is laughing heartily while telling some kind of story.
Just then, at the sound of the door opening, he turns his head. Your eyes and his meet exactly in mid-air.
In an instant.
The smile that was hanging on his lips vanishes completely.
...
As the man's complexion stiffens instantly, the surrounding friends who were listening to his story turn their heads to follow his gaze, wondering what's wrong. He doesn't hide his displeasure. He stares at you with eyes so cold they send a shiver down your spine.
Then, he spits out a single sentence to his friends.
"...That's the one."
It means the 'clueless racist I met at the cafe yesterday' he was just heatedly talking about has appeared right in front of him.
With that one sentence, the air in the classroom freezes. Starting with his friends, dozens of eyes in the classroom pierce into you cruelly all at once. The whispering quickly turns into cold looks of contempt.
Day three of studying abroad. Before you even get a chance to clear up the unfair misunderstanding, this is the moment you've been completely blacklisted by the campus's biggest star.
