Book Intro

A Nine-Year-Old’s Two-Wheeled Bike

 

Jiyu suddenly insisted on removing the training wheels on her bike. She made up her mind after Huey from upstairs passed her on a two-wheeled bike, asking, “Are you still riding a toy?” Her father said he would help her on the weekend, but she brushed his words aside and went to the playground by herself. It wasn’t like she didn’t want Huey to stand by and help by coaching her, but it got on her nerves. She was in a hurry to learn to ride a two-wheeled bike well, like her friend Huey and the older girl living in the apartment building next to theirs. As days of envy and hard work gradually passed, one day, her two-wheeled bike split the air and rolled forward, leaving a smile on Jiyu’s face.

 

 Jiyu’s admiration for her teacher is shared by her classmates, leading to a competition to see who likes their teacher the most. But the conversation about how much they liked their teacher somehow took an unexpected turn and ended up becoming a chat about smelly farts and poop galore. The conversation lasted until lunchtime, causing Jiyu to lose her appetite and eventually leave food on her plate. The teacher probably likes children who aren’t picky with their food and who eat everything on their plate, so Jiyu was worried. Then she happens to get a glimpse of her teacher’s plate and finds a ray of hope.

 

Jiyu and her friends were playing Cops and Robbers in the playground. There were five of them, so one had to be the kkakdugi, a player who gets to play on both sides. Naturally, all eyes turned to Jiyu, who was small and slow. Jiyu was forced to volunteer as the kkakdugi, but naturally, she didn’t feel good. Then the other kids tried to get the kkakdugi to play on their team, making her feel much better. Jiyu and her friends made up new rules whenever a problem occurred while playing games. At first sight, their conversation seemed to flow in a ridiculous direction as they said whatever came to mind, but it was amazing how the kids always found their way to their rightful places. The children, listening to each other’s ideas and solving problems, seemed better than the adults. Nine-year-old children enjoying and creating something together can be quite beautiful.
