Get Schooled (True Education/참�육) is a drama webcomic written by Yongtaek Chae and drawn by Garam Han. The translated version was hosted on Webtoon here, but the comic was removed from the English Webtoon services for depicting racist activity in a positive manner. After a hiatus in order to improve the story from this scandal, it returned on January 29, 2024, though the English translation has yet to reappear on Webtoon, if it ever will.The modern highschool is a hellscape for teachers. After the passing of the Anti-Corporal Punishment Act, students now take full advantage of the fact that corporal punishment is outlawed and torture and bully to their heart's content. Teachers who stand against them soon find themselves in court.Enter Hwajin Na of the Teacher's Rights Protection Agency, here to teach troublesome students a few lessons of his own. Backed up by the Ministry of Education he is more than prepared to clean up the schools of the country and put the little brats back in their place.The series features a lot of commentary on the difficulty of educating troubled youths and how many modern laws like the taboo of a teacher touching a student often make it harder to do their jobs. It also analyzes how bullying can affect teachers as well as students and how modern-day school bullies often use the very laws meant to protect their victims to protect themselves from consequences for their actions and discusses the necessity of corporal punishment. | |

Can't Kill You, Still Need You | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_1206d299 | comment |
Can't Kill You, Still Need You: Euhjin tries to jump into heavy traffic once she loses all hope of exposing her bully, Min Yojung. Then all of a sudden, Yojung pulls her back and saves her. Yojung made it clear she only saved Euhjin from her attempted suicide is so she’ll look good in front of onlookers and torment her punching bag even further with the knowledge that it was her own bully that saved her and will continue to suffer under her thumb. | |

Papa Wolf | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_1dfd19f9 | comment |
Papa Wolf: The reason Gangseok founded the TRPA is because his only child, Gayoon, was killed by a delinquent high schooler. He’s pissed that the killer will eventually walk free due to the laws giving minors with criminal records protection, and this inspires him to start the TRPA in memory of his late daughter. He also admits that he doesn’t want another parent to go through the same pains he did. | |

Sadist Teacher | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_2a6a8e89 | comment |
Ironically, the fourth major arc sees teachers getting in on this as well. Due to the TRPA having become notorious as an organization that protects teachers and puts students who misbehave through the wringer, a group of Sadist Teachers start using the TRPA's name and philosophy as a shield so they can abuse their students without consequences. One teacher in particular tells a female student that he'll hang himself on her front lawn if she reports him for sexually harassing her. | |

Teens Are Monsters | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_38d12399 | comment |
Teens Are Monsters: The entire premise. The bullies milk the law forbidding corporal punishments on students for all its worth and brutally pick on their defenseless classmates. Even the teachers are not immune to the bullying, with several bullies even going as far as to frame teachers for abuse just because said teachers dared to put their foot down. This finally culminated in a teacher getting beaten to death by one of their own students for reasons still unknown. This is also what led to the creation of TRPA. | |

Mysterious Past | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_421ae215 | comment |
Mysterious Past: Very little is known about Hwajin, his military career, or the extent of his relationship to Gayoon Choi, the late daughter of President Choi who may or may not have been the teacher that was killed by their own student and whose death led to the funding of the TRPA. We see them together on what looks like a date in a flashback of chapter 98 and 100, then it’s confirmed in chapter 111 (and season 1 finale) they were engaged to wed. But Gayoon is killed by her own student, leaving Hwajin reeling in grief of his own fiancée’s death. | |

Would Hurt a Child | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_479d4e5a | comment |
Would Hurt a Child: A major advantage the TRPA have over regular teachers is that they are allowed to hit students as much as they like. And they gladly do so whenever a bully gives them incentive for it. This is heavily criticized in-universe, as many adults point out that this is a brazen violation of the students' rights. However, as the wardens always point out in turn, it's pretty much a justified example, since being unable to discipline the students has lost modern day teachers most of their respect and bullies often take advantage of their untouchable status to violently bully both fellow students and teachers. The gangsters hired by Sorok High to take out Gwonhyeok have no issue whatsoever with beating up and maiming a highschooler. | |

Badass Teacher | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_498a6a21 | comment |
Badass Teacher: Downplayed, since the wardens aren't teachers, technically speaking. While they do work for the Ministry of Education, they have no teaching qualifications. Still, during their times at the schools who asked for the TRPA's assistance, they usually take teaching roles, so it applies. Hwajin is ex-military and an expert not only in hand-to-hand combat, but also psychological warfare. He's amazing at figuring out how the bullies at the schools he's assigned to work and then turn their very own systems and methods against them. Harim has served in the military like Hwajin and is currently leading her own martial arts gym. But unlike Hwajin, she doesn't take time to be psychological and jumps right to asserting her dominance via her close combat-skills. While she does have great analytical talent on her own and good reflexes, she prefers a more hands-on approach overall. | |

Disproportionate Retribution: Junhyeong ostracized Daesok at school and drove his family into ruin simply because Daesok dared to defend a teacher from Junhyeong's bullying. It eventually ended with Daesok committing suicide. Yeri suspects her new Homeroom teacher of having sent an anonymous report to the TRPA. So she breaks into her home and attempts to kill her with a box cutter. | |

Wounded Gazelle Gambit | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_567e7c4d | comment |
Wounded Gazelle Gambit: A favorite tactic of the bullies whenever a teacher tries to stand up to them. The comic mentions and shows several incidents in which a teacher's attempts to discipline a troublemaker in their class were recorded by said troublemaker's friends or falsely reported to the authorities to frame it as a teacher abusing a student, leading to the teacher getting fired while the troublemaker suffered no consequences at all. Ironically, the fourth major arc sees teachers getting in on this as well. Due to the TRPA having become notorious as an organization that protects teachers and puts students who misbehave through the wringer, a group of Sadist Teachers start using the TRPA's name and philosophy as a shield so they can abuse their students without consequences. One teacher in particular tells a female student that he'll hang himself on her front lawn if she reports him for sexually harassing her. Euhjin Kim goes online and tries to expose her bully, Min Yojung, who’s a popular idol singer. At first she had some support, but the general public quickly turns on her once Yojung made it look like she’s innocent while her “jealous friend� slandered her without proof. | |

Would You Like to Hear How They Died?: Gyucheol brags to Hwajin about his murder of Gayoon, going so far as to call the body punch he killed her with "the best punch in his life" while smiling like a lunatic. Downplayed, as Gyucheol is completely unaware of Hwajin's relationship to Gayoon and just believes him to be a regular counselor. Until chapter 111 when he finds out that the “counselor� he was bragging to was Gayoon’s fiancé, and he’s been hunting him down for quite some time. And he lets out an Evil Laugh as he pieces it all together. | |

Chiho Lee has no hesitation on literally beating girls into a hospital. Once Sera mouths him off, Seun, a female classmate and class president, tries to to defend her as he ferociously approaches them, and lands a heavy blow to the latter’s stomach. Once Sera dives in to attack him, he pulls out the brass knuckles and punches her bloody in the jaw. Sera pays him back for this. | |

It’s natural for President Choi, since this is his own daughter’s death he’s mourning, but it’s another thing for poor Hwajin because Gayoon was his fiancée, who was a strong believer of the Heel–Face Turn, and was killed by her own student. And he had to deal with her killer’s boasting of how good it felt to beat her to death and play the victim at the same time! | |

Sequel Hook | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_6293c185 | comment |
Sequel Hook: Season 1 ends on two notes: Junbin Lee is writing an article claiming the actions of the TRPA are abusing human rights, meaning he's not done with Hwajin. And more ominously, it's revealed that Gyucheol has been trying to track down the fiancé of Gayoon, his teacher that he killed. Jung-Hyuk then tells his boss he had found him and Gyucheol orders another underling to find a picture of him online... and it's Hwajin, who he had spoken with him before when he secretly posed as a counselor. Gyucheol pieces it together and begins to laugh hysterically when he realizes who Hwajin really is. | |

Evil Laugh | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_68068108 | comment |
And more ominously, it's revealed that Gyucheol has been trying to track down the fiancé of Gayoon, his teacher that he killed. Jung-Hyuk then tells his boss he had found him and Gyucheol orders another underling to find a picture of him online... and it's Hwajin, who he had spoken with him before when he secretly posed as a counselor. Gyucheol pieces it together and begins to laugh hysterically when he realizes who Hwajin really is. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: Daesok, a student at the first school Hwajin is sent to, threw himself off the roof of his school due to the relentless bullying he was subjected to by his peers. Kyeongnim, an underclassman of his, nearly does the same when he realizes neither the teachers nor the police have any power over the bullies at his school, but is stopped at the last second by Hwajin. Implied with Mr. Go, Miss Jung's predecessor. He died shortly after Yeri and her posse cost him his job and his reputation, but it's left ambiguous whether it was suicide or if he simply died of a broken heart. | |

Superman Stays Out of Gotham | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_70489c17 | comment |
Superman Stays Out of Gotham: The TRPA can only interfere with cases that involve abuse if teachers are involved, so they can't get involved if a problem isn't school related. That being said, when Na comes across a possible case of child abuse from a parent, he decides to use his vacation time against Choi's order to whip the parents into shape. | |

| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_7b6e47a5 | comment |
Armor-Piercing Question: When he introduces himself to his first class, Hwajin starts reading from the attendance list and stops at the name of Daesok Park, a student who recently killed himself due to the school's bullying-problem. When the class goes silent, he innocently asks if the student in question is absent. Right after that when he correctly deduces that a student who has a strong alcohol-smell has merely been drenched in it to cover for the bullies who were actually drinking, he asks the one who did the drenching whether this is how he killed Daesok Park as well. | |

Corporal Punishment | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_7d260070 | comment |
Corporal Punishment: The wardens are allowed to make generous use of violence wherever they see fit. They have absolutely no problem with slapping, hitting, kicking or spanking students who misbehave, sometimes even with weapons or every day items. They can extend that privilege to the teachers at their assigned schools if necessary. Corporal punishment in and of itself and whether or not it should be endorsed in that manner is a common point of discussion in the story. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech: The wardens will always remind the bullies of what horrible monsters they are and call them out on their treatment of their victims, often while delivering a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown. When the bullies refuse to get the message and karma ends up biting them in the ass, the wardens point out what their horrible actions led to and tell them that they have only themselves to blame. | |

Small Role, Big Impact: Gayoon Choi died before the start of the story, but it drove her father into starting TRPA, with Hwajin at the forefront, so no one would have to suffer like they did. It’s Dangseok Park death that leads Hwajin to investigate the corruption of his school and, to a lesser point, kickstarts the entire plot. | |

Bait-and-Switch | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_8797239c | comment |
Bait-and-Switch: Chapter 7 introduces Gangseok Choi, the prime minister of education and president of TRPA who meets up with Hwajin at a cemetery. Then Hwajin surprises the readers when he calls him dad. But in the immediate next panel, President Choi immediately kicks him, shouting at him angrily, �Who you calling dad?! You dumbass!�. One more panel later reveals they’re at the grave of his daughter, but the extent of her relationship with Hwajin is yet to be revealed. Until the season 1 finale that is. Gayoon was Hwajin’s fiancée, so chapter 7 made it clear her dad was not okay with marrying her off to ANY man. But she’s killed by her own student before the wedding could take place; this inspired Gangseok and Hwajin to work together into starting the TRPA. | |

However, Hwajin reveals that her students were willing to forgive her as while she had been abusive, they didn’t feel she deserved to lose her job. | |

Crocodile Tears | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_9b5a308c | comment |
Crocodile Tears: Yeri's specialty. Whenever she gets in trouble she presses out a few tears and pretends to be just a poor misunderstood highschool girl. This ends up biting her in the ass, as Miss Jung almost dying after Yeri tries this on her to get into her aprtment, leads to Yeri losing her last remaining ally and finally being held accountable for her crimes. Min Yojung pulls this trick out A LOT, especially whenever she tries to make “amends� towards her so called friends, i.e, punching bags. | |

Ordered Apology | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_a23b07cd | comment |
Ordered Apology: Type 2. Hwajin doesn't order it, exactly, but he does ignore when a gangster tries to apologize to him instead of his victim. Once he apologizes to the right person, Hwajin stops rearranging his face. During the CM Highschool arc, Hwajin orders the abusive teachers to ask for forgiveness from every student they've wronged as their "final exam". This act awards them the majority of points and is therefore mandatory for any teacher who wishes to "pass", or in other words: keep their job. | |

Playing the Victim Card | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_a5f5b4e0 | comment |
Playing the Victim Card: The bullies' usual first reaction to the TRPA's methods is to whine about how hard life is for them now and how brutal the wardens' methods are. Gyucheol firmly believes in this trope as a reason to deflect from his own responsibilities and Lack of Empathy over his crimes. To that end, he blames everyone BUT himself for his imprisonment by seeing himself as the only victim. | |

Bully Hunter: Pretty much what the wardens' main job is. They single out troublemakers at the schools they're dispatched to, then use any means necessary to stop violent behavior and to protect the teachers' rights. They're also willing to punish teachers who torment students, since the TRPA also protects students' rights to learn. | |

Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse: Despite the above named excuses Na and Lim never condone the bullies' actions if the crimes are inexcusable. In particular, while Lim understands Yeri's trauma, she thinks it doesn't justify her actions, considering Yeri also ruined the lives of Mr. Go's family when she drove him to suicide. This trope sums up the TRPA's stance nicely. Hwjain's entire goal when he walks into a school is to drive the point home that no matter how bad you had it, you don't get to take that pain out on innocents. | |

Heartbroken Badass: Hwajin and President Choi are rather depressed when visiting the grave of Gayoon Choi. When Hanrim makes fun of Hwajin’s long, unkempt hair, he shoots her down, proclaiming “I’m in mourning, you jerk!� Her face says it all. It’s natural for President Choi, since this is his own daughter’s death he’s mourning, but it’s another thing for poor Hwajin because Gayoon was his fiancée, who was a strong believer of the Heel–Face Turn, and was killed by her own student. And he had to deal with her killer’s boasting of how good it felt to beat her to death and play the victim at the same time! | |

What You Are in the Dark | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_afc6df04 | comment |
What You Are in the Dark: In episodes 34 and 35, Hwajin is left alone with Gayoon's killer, Gyucheol, and has to listen to him brag about how good it felt to kill her and then pull out the Playing the Victim Card by blaming his anger on the fact that the school refused to turn on air conditioning. Hwajin is more than capable of taking the guy on and if the guards were to enter the room, he could simply claim Gyucheol attacked him and he had to use self-defense, a more than believable scenario given Gyucheol's criminal record. Instead he just sits there and calmly listens to Gyucheol’s rant, not once letting him know what his own relation to Gayoon was. At the end of season 1, it’s revealed Hwajin’s true relation to Gayoon is the fact that they were engaged before her murder, and he held in his fury and vengeance against his fiancée’s killer! | |

And Seo-Yeon is even worse with her abuse considering she constantly would waterboard poor Mien-so. | |

"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: Chapter 111, which reveals it's been a year since the TRPA was founded, take a look on how some of the side characters from the arcs are doing: Kyeonngmin is living a normal school life. Hyeongju got a job at a large electric car company, and his former bullies congratulate him. Gweonhyeok promises he'll become his co-worker soon. Yeri Han receives a visit from Go Yeon-Su's wife, who encourages her to stop looking at the past and offers to make a meal for her once she's discharged. Mr. Whale is now the new head of the village, and is busy trying to get them to stop exploiting outsiders. Junbin is writing an article questioning the methods of the TRPA. Eunha has become the new captain of her basketball team. Ms. Sanghee is now teaching the positive equal rights ideas Somi taught her. Pastor Kim, now in prison, meets up with Mr. Cheon during lunch. Jiwoon hasn't learned from his encounter from with TRPA and is now in juvie for real. Mrs. Lee and Ms. Choi are now friends. Young-Jung is happily attending school with Junhee. Dong-Cheol's restraining order is lifted, and he happily reunites with his son. | |

| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: A good portion of bullies have some sort of excuse for their behaviors: Junhyeok's father regularly abuses him to show off his power. When he was at school though, his status as a politician's son made everyone try to get in on his good side, giving him a feeling of power he never had before so he milked it for all that it was worth. Yeri was tormented by a Sadist Teacher when she was younger, leading her to develop a deep hatred towards all teachers. Dong-Cheol was kicked out of High School for getting Mien-so's mother pregnant and had to work in construction to get by, where he was insulted by his former classmates. This made him resentful of his child and made him think he could've been living his 20s if not for his son. Seo-Yeon is not much better either, as she had an abusive step father who kicked her out when she got pregnant. | |

Hypocrite | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_d52d28b6 | comment |
Hypocrite: The bullies will put their victims through the wringer, often beating them black and blue and tormenting them until they seriously contemplate suicide. But when they're given a taste of their own medicine by the wardens of the TRPA, they immediately start whining about how this treatment is a violation of their human rights and how teachers shouldn't be so cruel to students. The wardens often lampshade this behavior with no small amount of amusement. Ms. Sanghee warps her teaching plan to make it all about discrimination and how it's wrong, but simultaneously discriminates and bullies every student who disagrees with her. Keep in mind that she's an elementary school teacher and the kids she's doing this to are in third grade. | |

Screw the Rules, I Have Connections! | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_d8573ef9 | comment |
Screw the Rules, I Have Connections!: Junhyeong's father is a congressman who is very good friends with the minister of education, which basically gives Junheyong diplomatic immunity. If any teacher tries to put an end to his group's bullying, all he has to do is mention his father's name and they back off. Hwjain is openly discouraged from disciplining him for this very reason. Too bad for Junhyeong that Hwajin couldn't care less about politics. In a way, the wardens invoke this as well. Since all of their actions are backed up by the minister of education himself, they have free range at any school they're dispatched to and intimidation methods that would work on regular teachers don't do a thing to them, since they're allowed to do pretty much whatever they want to finish the job. Yeri slaps her friend Sohyeong around so she can pretend Harim did it and sic Sohyeong's mother, who is the president of their school's booster club on the warden. It doesn't work out, as Harim is about as afraid of challenging entitled parents as Hwajin is, which is to say: Not at all. | |

Action Girl: Hanrim is an expert at hand-to-hand combat and might even be a tougher warden than Hwajin. Sera Gu is the second woman to join the TRPA at the beginning of season 2, and she’s no slouch at holding her own against a fight. | |

Would Hit a Girl | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_f42f96fa | comment |
Would Hit a Girl: Gyucheol Cho outright murdered his teacher, Gayoon, because she tried to stop him from ditching school. Chiho Lee has no hesitation on literally beating girls into a hospital. Once Sera mouths him off, Seun, a female classmate and class president, tries to to defend her as he ferociously approaches them, and lands a heavy blow to the latter’s stomach. Once Sera dives in to attack him, he pulls out the brass knuckles and punches her bloody in the jaw. Sera pays him back for this. | |

Wouldn't Hit a Girl | |
| Get Schooled (Webcomic) / int_fc45bac0 | comment |
Wouldn't Hit a Girl: Hwajin is actually hesitant when he reads that his next assignment is at an all-girls school which might imply he doesn't like the thought of using his usual method of character correction on girls. However, when he eventually has a strategy meeting with Harim, he seems prepared for dispatch and even starts working up a way to defeat Yeri, before Harim flat-out tells him this might not be the job for him and takes over. | |
