Just for a little context … the name of the school is Dae-byeon Elementary School (๋Œ€๋ณ€์ดˆ๋“ฑํ•™๊ต). Based on the Chinese characters in the school name: ๅคง้‚Š – where ๅคง(๋Œ€) means big and ้‚Š(๋ณ€) means change, there’s nothing unusual about the name. However, Koreans don’t normally write things in Chinese anymore, and when written in Korean, ๋Œ€๋ณ€ is most commonly used to refer to feces. So quite naturally, any kid going to that school had to live with being teased about attending “Feces Elementary School.”

The school’s website doesn’t list school colors, but it does show that the mascot is a pine tree (์†Œ๋‚˜๋ฌด). And there’s a lot of blue and green at the site and in images related to the school.

The favorite pet is the shit-zu. Enough of this potty talk. This thread is going down the toilet!
