Heading To The Ground
What about me?
Do you like me or not?
Is my heart the only one beating?
When I'm with you and look at you, my heart beats.
Am I the only one who feels this way?
Episode 13
H... hello?
What's up?
Let's meet up for a while. I'll go up.
Are you coming up now?
What is this?
Medicine.
Medicine?
Didn't you fall down just now?
Hiccuping?
I don't know why.
Apply the medicine and go to sleep.
I'm leaving.
It stopped, right?
What?
Your hiccups.
Oh, right.
Cha Bong Goon.
What happened just now...
I'll treat it as a mistake.
It wasn't a mistake.
When you look at me, what do you feel?
A little hurt, a little anxious, a little worried.
And a little nervous.
But that's not because I see you as a man.
It's because you're my player.
We should not mix that up.
Is that so?
I don't want our relationship to become awkward.
What happened just now, I'll treat it like it didn't happen.
Your soccer career is just about to begin.
Lock the door before you sleep.
Move, move quickly, move!
Continue!
Gather up, gather up.
Dong Ho cannot play soccer anymore,
and I feel regretful for that.
Nobody is to be blamed.
Dong Ho is Dong Ho. Your future is important.
There are only three games left.
If we cannot enter the playoffs,
I will resign.
I will bear all responsibility.
All you have to do is play with your best efforts.
Don't let any rumors spread, or quarrel among yourselves.
Not coming back at night, alcohol and smoking. All of these will not be tolerated.
Oh Yeon Yi.
Yeon Yi ah.
I've thought about it.
Yes.
Say it.
I like you too, but
I think it's not love.
You replied faster than I had imagined you would.
Didn't I tell you to consider it seriously,
and consider a bit more before you get back to me?
If I had to think so hard about it, then it isn't love, is it?
Unconsciously thinking about it, unconsciously smiling,
that is love.
Your heart, and my heart, are really very different.
Fine.
Then I'll leave first.
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
You're all wet.
Go back to the clubhouse and change into my clothes before you go.
Let's go quickly.
Yeon Yi ah.
Don't be nice to me for now.
Very soon, I'll soon revert to the crazy Oh Potato.
So, for today...
For now, just don't be so nice to me.
Miss Yeon Yi!
Why are you so wet?
The sprinklers on the pitch suddenly started spraying.
Then are you okay?
Yes.
Then, have you been to the hospital to see Dong Ho?
You knew Dong Ho has always liked you, right?
How did you know?
If I didn't even know that, how will I manage them?
Ah, poor Dong Ho, he must be in hell right now.
When I was a player, I was injured before, so I know how he feels now.
Compared to the physical pain, the torture of being in the hospital is much worse.
Yes.
I'm good, don't worry.
I don't get treated differently just because I'm a reserve player.
Mom, why do you always worry so much?
Okay, I'm hanging up.
Hyung, whats up with you, why are you cleaning up?
What's that?
I guess Cha Bong Goon's going to Japan.
Japan?
Wow, he's getting a lot of money to go to Japan.
He's acting all normal, I didn't imagine he would be doing this behind our backs.
Is this a secret arrangement?
He came here thanks to Dong Ho, and eventually caused Dong Ho to get injured.
And now he's going to Japan alone.
Where did this come from?
From under the bed.
If they find out about this, will he be kicked out?
Of course he will be kicked out.
Hyung, where are you going? Hyung!
What are you doing!
Coach.
I really have no intention of leaving this place.
Are you guys going all out to ridicule me?
Mid season, transferring my players to other places.
Coach, this...
Don't try to deny it, weren't you the ones who set it up?
It is already quite messy now, what are you trying to do?
Kang Hae Bin, what are you exactly?
Inciting players, transferring them elsewhere, is that an agent?
It wasn't us inciting Cha Bong Goon, it was Wonderful 11. It's them.
Sorry, it's my fault.
Player Cha Bong Goon has nothing to do with this.
As an agent, I did not do a good job as the middleman.
I'm sorry.
Have you not figured out the situation yet?
You don't know what kind of situation Cha Bong Goon is in?
Moon Jin Seok is that kind of person, you know him well too don't you?
You have been removed (from the team).
This ddukboki shop has the best business in the neighbourhood?
Yes.
The look and color of it is not bad.
Is it delicious?
Is it delicious for you?
Yes.
A bit sweet.
This shop has the best business in this neighbourhood.
Is it?
Let's go then.
Grandma, didn't you say you wanted to eat ddukboki?
Haven't we eaten it? Let's go.
You have to put this in.
Here.
Wow, it's really delicious!
Is it?
Have you finished making it?
You try some too.
I ate a lot for lunch, I can't eat anymore.
Mom, it's really very good!
Then I'll try a bit.
I'm really full, but this makes me want to keep eating anyway.
Byul Yi's mom, what is your dream?
Dream?
Yes.
At this age, what kind of special dream could I have?
For our Byul Yi to grow up healthy,
and for our Bong Goon to not get injured while playing soccer.
Bong Goon and Byul will live their lives well by themselves.
Isn't there something that you want to do?
When I'm old, I don't want to be a burden to the kids.
Maybe I should save up to get a push cart selling ddukboki?
Are you good at making ddukboki?
I'm still far from catching up to your abilities.
Byul Yi's mom, what is your name?
Soon Ok. Lee Soon Ok.
Lee Soon Ok.
Why are you looking for me? Have you changed your mind?
Looks like you'll have to make a trip with me to the club.
Why?
My meeting with you was found out, and now I'm stuck in a difficult situation.
What?
I already said that I will not accept your offer.
Please go with me to the club and help me explain the situation.
Why were you so careless as to let people find out?
It's a long story.
Let's go quickly.
Ah, but I still have a meeting to attend.
- Let's go. - Five minutes, just give me five minutes.
Let's go together.
Say it quick.
I'm the victim here.
It's Cha Bong Goon who contacted me first to transfer.
What?
Because he was asking for something higher than we expected,
so the contract could not be completed.
Hey!
Is that the truth?
Coach, it's not like that.
Is an agent a scapegoat?
To say that he rejected it himself then asking me to help him cover up,
I'm not going to take the blame for him.
Why are you lying?
What lie did I say?
Tell the truth,
it was you who called me up suddenly, and after that, I rejected your offer.
Then why did you return everything except the contract?
You want to hit me? Hit me then. Hit me.
Cha Bong Goon.

Dong Ho.
[How do I live on like this? To live or to die. To be or not to be]
Dong Ho! Dong Ho!
Dong Ho! What are you doing?
Lee Dong Ho!
Yeon Yi.
What are you doing?
What about me?
Why do you want to kill yourself? Why?
What's wrong with you?
I just came up here for some fresh air for a while.
Ah?
Is it alright for you to walk?
The doctor says it's better if I walk around a bit.
You're recovering faster than expected.
I've always been well prepared for anything.
No matter what, I'm prepared to overcome it.
Why did you take so long to visit?
I've been waiting for you to come. The whole time.
Sorry.
I couldn't make up my mind.
Do you know why I was waiting for you?
Why?
Because I had something to say to you.
What you did by dumping me was the right thing to do.
Why did you want to tell me that?
My life is not bad, it's still bearable.
But an injured soccer player is only a burden to a woman.
And the possibility of playing again is small.
It's better this way, now that things have ended.
You seem to have foresight.
Why do you put it that way?
Coach.
What's up?
The club president is here.
You're here.
We've prepared the meeting room for you.
Coach Lee, do I look like I have a lot of spare time to you?
Have you settled the issue with Player Cha Bong Goon?
Tell me.
I've checked with Wonderful 11,
they said that Cha Bong Goon was asking for too much money,
so there was only a verbal agreement,
and there was no formal contract signed.
Are you sure about this?
Yes.
He said he was the one who rejected it.
He's not a player who would lie.
When it comes to money, it's hard to say.
The key forward is injured,
and the backup striker tried to request for a transfer mid-season behind the club's back.
Coach Lee, how do you usually manage your players?
I'm really sorry.
And you plan to enter the playoffs,
how do you intend to settle this?
I'm sorry.
President, the player's statement is...
The player's statement!
Excuse me for a moment.
You reacted to this matter well.
With regards to the penalty from the league, I will settle it for you.
I'll call you back later.
Cha Bong Goon, are you looking for the coach?
The club president is around, is it okay for you to go like this?
You probably needed the money,
so why didn't you just go to Japan quietly?
It's you, isn't it?
This was your plan right?
Maybe.
When defeating a guy like you, I don't get excited.
It's not fun anymore.
Because you have nothing.
You'd have to have something in the first place for me to take it from you.
Jang Seung Woo, you...
No, no, maybe it's not that you have nothing.
You put your family's interests before your own right?
Because you don't have the ability to protect them.
Remove your hand.
Your family is pretty amusing.
Amusing?
Is it amusing?!
What are you doing?
Lawyer Jang, are you alright?
I'm fine.
Cha Bong Goon.
Coach.
What happened?
That is...
I told him he couldn't go in, and he tried to barge his way through.
What are you, a gangster?
You scared me!
Cha Bong Goon has been fired.
What?
That guy actually beat someone up.
What?
He punched the lawyer, what's-his-name, in the face.
Already been fired! We don't have to think about it anymore!
It's over!
Is Seung Woo injured badly?
I don't know! Does that guy have any brains?
Why did he punch the legal consultant in the face?
And in front of the club president!
What will we do in the future?
Why exactly did he punch someone?
Don't ask me why! Because I don't know also!
Why do these things always happen.
Problem after problem after problem!
About the violence, that's Cha Bong Goon's fault.
I'll make him come and apologize. Seung Woo, just let it go this time.
Hae Bin...
He cannot be kicked out.
- Please give me some face. - It's not just about the problem of violence,
that caused him to be kicked out, right?
Although I would really like to help, but there's no way.
The Japan thing was a misunderstanding.
Cha Bong Goon said that he rejected it.
I cannot let him leave like this, Seung Woo.
Although it's a pity, but there is no way.
The President is very disappointed, because he was always observing Cha Bong Goon.
You're really upset, right?
Coach.
Save me.
Without soccer, I will die.
About the transfer, I really have no idea what was happening.
Although I have to admit I was tempted,
but I rejected it, firmly.
How do you expect me to believe what you say?
Why did you hit the team's legal consultant in the face?
Soccer is a sacred sport.
A lying thug like you, we don't need that type.
Coach.
Pack your things and move out by tomorrow morning.
As long as it's been decided that you will be removed, there's nothing I can do anymore.
I have been maligned.
I have never lied.
I'm sorry to have disappointed you, but it cannot end like this.
I have no money and no back up.
The only one I can depend on is you, Coach.
You could have pretended that you didn't know. Why did you have to hand it over.
What did I do?
Despicable guy.
You're speaking up for Cha Bong Goon now?
Hyung, you really did the wrong thing this time.
Why are you guys coming after me?
He came in as a pawn of Lee Dong Ho's, but caused Dong Ho to be injured,
And then he took the striker position then tried to transfer to Japan, is that doing the right thing?
He denied it, didn't he?
You should have listened to what he had to say first.
Hyung.
How do I tell them about him being kicked out of the team.
I want to tell them some good news for once, good news.
Grandma, Byul Yi and I have something important to do outside.
Don't go too far away.
Okay.
Because we don't know if we'll be back in time for dinner,
I've prepared dinner already.
Just go.
We're leaving.
Are you worried?
What's there to be worried about?
It's not my first time at the hospital.
Let's go.
Hospital?
Bong Goon ah.
How are you going to go on without drinking a single drop of water?
Why did you punch Jang Seung Woo?
You walk around the dung because of the bad smell, and not because you're afraid of it, right?
Didn't we agree to ignore him? Because he's dirty.
I heard that unless the rest of the team agrees,
no one can reverse the decision to fire you.
What will you do?
If you didn't punch Jang Seung Woo, you could have...
Do you want me to carry you?
I'm not a child.
To mom, you and your brother will always be children.
Get up.
Mom worries about too many things.
Mom is not worried at all.
Mom, after the check up, buy me pizza.
We have to go home and eat dinner with Grandma.
That's right.
Then wait for Oppa to come back and get him to buy me pizza.
Do you want my help?
If I talk to them nicely,
we can pretend this firing thing never happened.
You want to continue playing soccer right?
To join the rest of the K-League teams will be very difficult.
If you kneel down in front of me and apologise sincerely, I will forgive you.
Why are you staring like that?
You want to punch me again?
Lawyer Jang Seung Woo.
Leave.
Is this fun for you?
It is.
Leave.
Go where you're supposed to go. Quickly!
Cha Bong Goon. You really are an...
...idiot.

Oh! Who is this?
Hello.
Byul Yi, Soon Ok.
To be meeting you here, it must really be fate!
It's great to see you.
Are you here to see a doctor?
No.
What?
I was passing by the area.
What?
Are you here to see a doctor?
That is, I'm sorry but
Bong Goon doesn't know about this.
I'm afraid that Bong Goon will worry.
So, have you eaten?
Eh?
Byul Yi have you eaten?
Here, Byul Yi's.
This is Soon Ok's.
Eat more.
Thank you, I will start eating now.
Grandma is at home alone, we should go back and eat together.
You can eat quickly and then go home.
And eating out once is a while is good for the digestive system.
We'll take out something for Grandma.
Byul Yi, please eat more.
We have to take the salad ourselves, right?
I'll go.
I'll go get it.
Mom aren't you eating?
I'll wait for Uncle to come back first.
Why did you take so long?
What looks good, tastes good too,
Cha. Byul.
Byul Yi, Byul!
Byul's Mom is not at home?
Yes.
Grandma are you home alone?
Yes.
Oh, are you having dinner; shall I get you some soup?
Use this, pour it here.
Grandma, you don't have anywhere to go?
Ah.
I heard that Grandma doesn't have senile dementia.
Since when did I say that I was senile?
Grandma, you have no relatives?
Where are your children,
why do you have to live in someone else's house like this?
My children are dead, and my nephew threw me aside.
Nephew? You have a nephew?
I do. He's one heartless guy.
Then do you want to find that nephew?
The soup is not bad.
I heard that you're fussy about your food.
What do you do?
I own a restaurant.
What's on your menu?
Potato Stew.
Looks like your food is not bad, so business should be good.
What?
You didn't add in the Perilla powder and rice flour all at once,
but you added the Perilla and tea rice together first.
How did you know that?
And the meat you used is good quality meat.
The seasoning is just right.
Can you give us some of the Joseong soya sauce?
And they say that when you age you lose your taste buds first.
Your taste buds seem to be quite acute.
My taste buds should be even more acute than yours.
Oh my.
Grandma,
do you want to work in my kitchen?
I'll give you some allowance money.
How much?
Coach Lee, what do you want to say?
That, before the playoffs
we need him for the matches between the top 6 teams.
Moreover, we don't have Lee Dong Ho anymore,
if we kick Cha Bong Goon out as well,
it would be critical.
Are the playoffs more important to you right now?
You don't care about the image of the team anymore?
I'm sorry.
Doesn't Cha Bong Goon have a criminal record as well?
Yes.
We have to think for the long term.
There's nothing we can do about this season.
President.
To beat up the team's legal consultant in front of me.
Is that acceptable?
How do you manage your players?
I'm sorry.
Did you come here to train gangster-like players?
Is there no way?
This matter has blown up too big,
Cha Bong Goon pleading to us in itself is no use.
Unless the president personally revokes the order to fire him, there is no other way.
Dad?
He hit Jang Seung Woo in front of the president.
Ah.
But, President knew beforehand that Cha Bong Goon has a record.
Did he plant a spy among us?
What have you been doing?
We prevented the media from reporting about it.
Get him to apologize nicely to Jang Seung Woo.
What change will that bring?
This is the best idea we have now.
And it's the last thing we can do.
And, for a whole day,
And, what's the use of kneeling in front of the office the whole day.
We can't do anything about this.
What?
Cha Bong Goon, why are you kneeling here?
Do you intend to give up your kneecaps?
Get up.
Go away.
Your kneeling here will not change anything.
Don't worry about my matters.
I will do whatever I can.
You will hurt your body.
Why did you beat up a person for no reason?
There isn't even time for resolution, why are you always in trouble?
If you want to kneel, it's in front of the wrong person.
Let's look for Seung Woo together.
Drink this quickly.
I heard that you haven't eaten anything for a whole day.
Do you want to die from dehydration?
Cha Bong Goon.
Kang Hae Bin.
Why are you acting like this?
Cha Bong Goon, you are really...
You have a guest, he says he's Cha Bong Goon.
Let him in.
Hit me.
Hit me as much as you want.
Why should I hit you?
I'll just hurt my fist.
Kneel in front of me and apologize.
I said that if you sincerely bow down to me, I would let you off.
Why did you have to butt into my life?
Why did you have to destroy me?
I didn't do anything.
Think about an insect that flies straight into the burning flames.
That is you.
You don't get it?
I'm just strong.
So, don't ever appear in front of me.
I'll keep stepping on you.
Do you know this?
You're just a pile of dung.
What?
It's not that you are stepping on me.
But I'm stepping on you, because you're so arrogant.
Shoes that have stepped on dung should be thrown away or cleaned.
I will keep walking on.
Even if I'm fired by the team, I will keep playing soccer.
Hae Bin, why aren't you coming in?
Because I'm upset.
You saw Cha Bong Goon?
In this kind of situation, you have to be stronger.
How upset must Cha Bong Goon be?
You have to get a grip-
Are you crying?
Cha Bong Goon makes me so upset.
I cannot do anything because of Cha Bong Goon.
Kang Hae Bin.
Have you fallen for Cha Bong Goon?
What are we going to do about this?
It's not that.
Sure it's not.
I don't know what it is either.
Then, what about Lawyer Jang?
You must be crazy!
Is that Cha Bong Goon?
You should sleep soon after taking off your make up?
Why? Is anything the matter?
Mom.
What?
I'm in pain.
What?
I'm dying from the pain.
Where does it hurt?
I don't have a fever.
Then, what is it? Stomach ache?
My heart hurts.
For Dong Ho?
Then why does it hurt? What happened?
You're acting suspiciously.
Don't tell me you're in love secretly?
With who, what kind of guy is he?
Why are you acting like a hibernating worm, and not talking?
You're making people worry!
Bong Goon.
What?
Because of Bong Goon, my heart hurts.
You can't be... Bong Goon?
It's Bong Goon?
You're really crazy!
I'm also going crazy because of this.
You've just been spending too much time with Bong Goon.
And you're never dated a guy properly.
You're always around each other and it's comfortable, that's why you mistook it as love for him.
Bong Goon doesn't like me, he likes some other girl.
What?
Bong Goon is in a lot of trouble, and I can't do anything to help him.
Why did you want to meet here?
I will keep playing soccer. I won't give up.
The club fired me, and it'll be hard to stay in the K-League.
But I will not give up soccer, I cannot give up soccer.
Cha Bong Goon.
I've even survived life-or-death situations, how hard could this be?
Even if it will be difficult and stressful, I'll start over again.
I have something to ask you.
What is it?
Didn't you say you wanted to go with me to Manchester United?
Was that just a passing remark,
or was there any inkling of truth in it?
Of course I want to.
Why would I say empty words, in front of you?
No one believed me.
Truthfully, I'm the worst-case scenario, right?
Be it Man U, Chelsea, or Arsenal, can't we dream about it?
Although you are a K-League reject now,
it wasn't a joke, or an empty promise.
It's the same now as it was then.
Let's run together.
Don't players run for 90 minutes without resting?
I've always wanted to try it out.
To find out how tiring it is.
Shouldn't that be something an agent should know?
Okay, from here to there, we'll run for 90 minutes.
Start!
Do you really want to go back to the amateur league?
There's no choice.
Thanks.
For what?
For not giving up on some reject like me.
There must be some sort of misunderstanding.
Cha Bong Goon may have a bit of a jumpy personality,
but he would not do that kind of thing behind my back.
But the situation has spiraled out of control.
What will happen to Cha Bong Goon in the future?
Of course we have to stop the situation from spreading.
So, how's your body?
I'm fine.
Kid, how can everything be fine all the time?
When can you be discharged?
It should be next week.
Have you considered what you will do next?
I'm thinking about it.
Have you thought about joining a coaching course?
I'll ask for you about a place in the overseas research course.
Coach.
You have the potential to be a great coach.
Helping others fulfill their dreams is as good as being a player.
It's a meaningful thing to do.
You should think about it carefully.
Yes.
Lee Dong Ho Hyung! Lee Dong Ho Hyung!
Wow, it's really Lee Dong Ho Hyung.
Hello.
Are you hurt?
Yes.
It's amazing.
What is?
Hyung, no matter how hurt you are, you always got up.
But you're using crutches now.
My dad says that Lee Dong Ho Hyung is the best soccer player in the country.
Really?
Are you in a lot of pain?
No.
Please sign this for me.
Noona, do you have a pen?
Wait a minute.
What's your name?
Park Hee Geon.
Wow, thank you!
Next year during the World Cup, you must score a goal!
Okay.
Lee Dong Ho fighting!
World Cup.
I wanted to get my revenge by spectacularly succeeding in soccer.
But I guess it won't work.
I held back the urge to flatten him, and concentrated only on kicking the ball.
It's alright, Cha Bong Goon.
Not giving up is your revenge.
I'll just start again from the bottom.
Bong Goon! I told you to come out for lunch!
Okay.
Seung Woo.
Hae Bin, you're angry at me, right?
I'm not, why should I be angry at you?
Do you want to eat something good tonight?
Today is a bit difficult.
Then pick a time when you are free, just treat it as a mood change.
Seung Woo,
I'm an agent.
Because I'm an agent, so I will act like an agent should.
You can understand that right?
What does that mean?
I will call you later.
It's me, Hae Bin.
Oppa, when will you be joining the next match?
Next match?
Yes, I bragged to my friends that Oppa scored 2 goals.
Did you?
My friends want me to get Oppa's autograph.
Scoring 2 goals will double the amount of money for scoring, right?
Yes.
Bong Goon what happened to you?
I have something to say to you.
What is it?
Looks like we'll have to cancel our appointment.
It would have been nice if you had called in advance.
Hae Bin...
I'm here to beg for your help.
I have no excuse or explanation.
I have no choice but to come and beg for your help.
Please don't fire Cha Bong Goon.
Quit your job as an agent.
Then, Cha Bong Goon's issues will be put aside.
Congratulations! I heard you rejoined the team.
I'll walk you home.
It's alright.
Are the two of you dating?
We're not!
Coach, why are you yelling?
No matter what others say, do what you want to do.
That is the right way, because it is your life.
We will be joining the Top 6 Playoffs.
I want to repay those who believed in me, and those whom I've been lucky enough to know.
