The secret hobby of a love-letter-hating disciplinary teacher.
"Is it true? Do you really love me that much?" -Hyun Jin-geon, 'Supervisor B and the Love Letter', 1925- At a girls' school perched atop the hills of Bukchon in Gyeongseong, English teacher and head of student discipline Baek Moon-hyeok is famous for being a rigid, stingy old nag. If there is one thing Baek Moon-hyeok loathes and detests with a passion, it is the so-called 'love letter.' Every piece of correspondence discovered at the school passes through his hands. As he tears open each unusually rosy envelope one by one, he finds several confessions of love every day, filled with dramatic vows of life and death. Every time he reads them, Baek Moon-hyeok's face turns beet-red with fury. When the owner of a letter appears with a terrified face, he interrogates them as if he might devour them, giving them no room to breathe. Who did you get this from? How long has this relationship been going on...? After over two hours of interrogation, he would lecture them at length about how men are not to be trusted and how things like 'free love' are all inventions of the devil. Finally, he would drop to his knees right there on the floor and offer a prayer. With every other word, he would call upon God the Father, obsessively pleading for Him to save this little lamb who was about to fall into the devil's temptation. ————— This autumn, a strange rumor began to circulate in the school managed by such a man. It was said that late at night, after all the students had gone home, faint laughter and whispering could be heard leaking from somewhere in the hallways. Some said it was a ghost's prank, others a daring secret tryst under the moonlight, or just one of those ghost stories every school has... There was much talk, but no one had seen anything clearly. Unable to stand it any longer, the new teacher Guest made a firm promise to the students to uncover the hollow truth of this eerie rumor with their own eyes and finally headed to the school alone one night. Without fail, the whispering was heard. "Do you really love me that much? Me... little old me?"

"Ah, have you only now realized how my heart burns for you alone!"
It was clearly the voice of a man intoxicated with passion. Then, a moment of silence.
"Stop it now. The kiss is too long. What if someone sees?"
This time, the coquettish tone of a woman followed.
"The longer it is, the better. I could kiss you until my breath leaves me and still not call it long. I would only lament that it was too short."
