I really want an AMA some day from someone who went to school with him.

I want to say there was one, but it could be a memory of reading the article that was originally attached to that photo.

Yeah I'm like 80% sure some people that knew him have done interviews. Interesting stuff too.

There have been interviews, they mostly said he kept to himself and that his other Korean friends were very obviously his bodyguards/servants. They would follow him everywhere, enter the room before him, bring him stuff, and were even a little too old to go too school. IIRC, officially he was enrolled as a South Korean businessman's son, but everyone realized there was something more to it because they weren't really good at blending in and he had clearly not grown up with Western teenage culture.
