Dean Dean, bullied in school days, expelled after being beaten by teachers → finally went to Canada… “I thought my life was over” [RE:view]

[TV Report = Reporter Min Se-yoon] Singer DINDIN revealed an episode from the past, explaining that during his school days he could not endure the severe discrimination and beatings from his homeroom teacher, so he decided to drop out of school and went to study in Canada.

On the 15th, a video was uploaded to DINDIN's personal channel in which he looked back on memories from his time studying in Canada and shared the pain he felt then. In the video, DINDIN said, "There are a lot of comments saying, 'How could one person go through all of this?' after seeing my life story," and began speaking.

Looking back on his first year of high school, DINDIN said, "From the very first day, my homeroom teacher created an atmosphere of fear by declaring, 'Every year I make five students drop out.'" In particular, discrimination continued openly, such as checking only certain students' bags, and DINDIN said that in an unfair situation he clenched his fists, lay face down, and was beaten.

The decisive incident happened on a day when DINDIN had been sick, rested in the infirmary, and returned. Despite his explanation that he had received permission from the nurse, the homeroom teacher assaulted him, and then, mistaking it as if DINDIN had caused the class president's mistake as well, he was beaten again in the teachers' office. DINDIN confessed, "When I came home and looked at my school uniform, I burst into tears."

Eventually, DINDIN's father told him, "Don't go to school," and advised him to think carefully about his future. DINDIN explained the background to how he submitted his withdrawal form and left for Canada a month later, saying, "I thought that if I kept living like this, my life would be ruined, so I told my mother I wanted to study abroad." Studying in Canada became the turning point in his life, where he found hip-hop and changed course.

Netizens responded by saying that violence from teachers was severe in those days, and they supported DINDIN's current success after meeting music through studying abroad.
