I don't want to regret losing Yi Seul.
Please let me meet her.
Are you a player worthy of a great manager?
Thank you sir!
It was my dream to be Kang Baek Ho's Jerry Maguire.
You're the best Christmas present of my life.
There was a season when I began to think of Yi Seul.
When Coach proposed to Yi Seul, was Baek Ho in the army?
No. Coach can't propose to Yi Seul first.
There's a reason I need to leave.
If I don't do something, that girl will marry another man.
Hey, where are we going?
Episode 9
Coach!
Are you okay Coach?
Coach! Wake up Coach!
Coach, get up!
What is this?
You're always losing coffee cups at the office.
From now on, use this.
Since my face is on it, it'll be hard to lose.
You can use it for tea or to store pens.
Also it's nice to see a beautiful face whenever you use it.
So many thoughts put into a cup.
No, my dad really is a baseball player.
I'm not lying!
Right Dad? You were a pro baseball player, right?
You hit a lot of homeruns, right?
Don't fight over things like that with your friend.
What kind of player is he? No one knows him.
My dad said he's never heard of your dad.
Dad!
Aren't you going to listen to me?
I'm not going to bring you here again. Are you okay with that?
Are you player Jung Jin Ho?
Who are you?
You are player Jung Jin Ho!
I'm a fan of yours!
Thank you.
Lady, do you know my dad?
He's really a baseball player, right?
- What's your name? - Min Jae. Jung Min Jae.
Min Jae...you and your friend should listen closely.
I've been following baseball for a long time.
Your father was a great player.
The type of player who always did his best right up until the very end.
Did he hit home runs?
Of course!
Player Jung Jin Ho! I have a favor to ask. Can we take a picture together?
What?
It's just that I'm a huge fan of yours. Please?
- Thank you! - Of course.
I'm dizzy! I'm dizzy!
Hey! Are you sure your girlfriend is here?
Yes, I'm sure!
How can we find her in a place this crowded? Make an announcement or something.
Just look a bit more...
Student from Ha Neul Elementary School,
Ham Yi Seul, Yoo Chae Ri, Joo Tae Nam, and Song Chan Wook
Your teacher is looking for you.
Hey wait a minute.
Listen to that.
Students from Ha Neul Elementary school,
Ham Yi Seul, Yoo Chae Ri, Joo Tae Nam and Song Chan Wook
What? Let's go!
Why do you keep looking at me like that?
Oh. You're trying to tell me there's something on my face when there's nothing there, right?
No. It's just that... you look pretty.
What?
I was just thinking about what a pretty apprentice I raised.
What do you mean raised me? I grew up well on my own.
This is why they say you should punish those you cherish.
You are pretty, but you sure have no manners.
Strangely enough, I never did have manners when it came to you.
I'm not like that with others. I apologize.
No need to apologize.
Just be rude with me from now on.
You know that's a weird request, right?
Ham Yi Seul, Yoo Chae Ri, Woo Tae Nam, Song Chan Wook. Your teacher is looking for you.
- Hey what's going on? - Someone's playing a prank.
Isn't it you?
- It's not me? - Isn't it you?
- No. - Then who else would...
Hey friends. Have you been well?
Kang Baek Ho!
Hey! What is this?
Salute! Private Kang Baek Ho.
I am here on break.
Hey, you scared us.
You punk. You must be really comfortable seeing that you're playing pranks like this.
- Yes Coach. - You look good.
Oh yeah. Say hi. This is my sergeant.
Allow me to introduce myself! Sergeant Park Yong Soo!
Nice to meet you.
- Hello. - Hello.
Isn't it difficult to take care of our silly Baek Ho?
How did you know he was silly?
Now that you bring it up, he was able to take a break because I made the miracle happen.
That's not it. I'm also the one who trains him.
I'm a higher rank than him, but I even give him water.
Oh so is Baek Ho good at training?
Oh so you're his short friend.
- Yes, that's me. - Yes, Baek Ho is good.
Oh Miss Chae Ri, you sure are beautiful.
The aura around you is just...
Excuse me. It's been a while since you've been out so...
So what happened?
I told you that I won't let you guys play without me.
Geez. You're really too much.
Hey since it's been a while. Should we go on that ride?
Sure.
I never realized how much happiness it brought me to see her smile.
I felt that her smile wouldn't be mine anymore.
It hurt to think about. Why hadn't I realized this sooner?
Th..th..that person!
I feel like he's hitting on Chae Ri! If I get jealous, would that be seen as weakness?
No.
So if I stand up to that sergeant, will the entire army come after me?
No!
Thanks friend.
- But... - Yeah?
- How are you going to punish him? - What?
He just grabbed her. I mean who does that?
He's coming, he's coming.
I don't see Chae Ri. Where's Chae Ri?
Oh our Chae Ri? She's up there.
I'm afraid of heights.
I told her she should go up herself.
But a lady shouldn't ride something like that alone!
Where is it?
Oh it's over there.
Hey Chae Ri!
Oh seriously. Chae Ri!
Hey, should we slowly head out?
- Sure. - But where's Baek Ho and Yi Seul?
I don't see them.
Oh! I don't see the sergeant either.
Oh yeah the sergeant.
I'm sure we'll run into him eventually. I'm thirsty. Let's get something to drink.
Yeah, yeah. It's on me.
- Let's go. - Go where?
Hey. Here.
What is this?
Did you make this?
It's nothing big. I was just bored so I made it when I had time.
I mean I really had nothing better to do.
Kang Baek Ho! What's wrong with you?
Why is everything you say so awkward?
You really seem like a soldier now that you've made something like this.
Of course I'm a soldier. It's not like I'm a boy scout.
This isn't it. I'm trying to propose, not pick a fight.
What I meant is that you seem strong and manly, like a real soldier.
Strong? Manly? So she sees me as a man?
Yes! Private Kang Baek Ho! There are perks to joining the army after all.
Hey, let's go.
By the way, Yi Seul.
Truth is, there's something I wanted to tell you...
Sergeant.
Chae Ri's not here yet.
I guess we'll have to wait. She's not here.
- No, but... - We can't leave yet!
My Chae Ri's not here yet. Look here!
Open up! Please!
No seriously...
Oh no. What do we do?
Did you tell her?
Then what have you been doing this whole time?
Nevermind.
Just army talk.
What have you been doing this whole time, huh?
Why did you come here?
Well...I was about to do it just now...
but then you came along.
- Chae Ri! Chae Ri! - Sergeant!
- I'm over here Chae Ri! - Sergeant!
Don't do that!
Sergeant! Don't!
In a few moments, we'll have fireworks at the plaza.
Don't miss out on creating special memories beneath the sparkling sky.
Fireworks? Fireworks! This is it Kang Baek Ho!
Fireworks at night! This will be the perfect proposal.
There's no time to hesitate!
Oh okay. We'll head over there too.
Let's go. The kids are meeting at the bridge to watch the fireworks.
Hurry, let's go.
Wait, wait! Yi Seul!
Wait, wait. Yi Seul!
Ham Yi Seul!
What's going on?
Ham Yi Seul!
No! No Coach!
Ham Yi Seul! I have something to tell you.
I just realized this now. But I like you.
I really like you!
- What is he saying? - Be quiet.
I think I like you as a woman.
I always liked you, but today, my feelings were confirmed.
This is love.
I've never seen such a romantic proposal in my life. Just like a movie!
Coach was a greater man than I thought.
He managed to say what I couldn't say for fifteen years.
My champion.
Kang Baek Ho, what's wrong with you? Where is your head?
I apologize.
Baek Ho. Sorry, but I can go first, right?
Oh, okay.
Go ahead.
Happy Valentine's Day.
Hello everyone. Valentine's Day has arrived again.
For couples, this day melts beautifully like truffle chocolates.
For those who are single, it's bitter like whiskey bon bons.
Sorry, sorry Baek Ho, but I'll go first.
I have to pitch for some reporters later.
My shoulder is still tight.
That's cool, right?
Yeah, sure. Go ahead.
Wearing a player's uniform doesn't comfort me anymore.
I'm still on the second squad. Forever a trainee.
I may have reached my limit as a baseball player.
But I have no regrets.
The thing I wanted most... that girl...
As long as she's by my side...
Lim Jun Ho. When they sent out a rookie before you, were you shocked?
I think it'll be a problem if I tell the truth, so I just won't answer.
Sending out the rookie was the director's way of looking out for us.
We expected him to go out first.
I've heard that you're interested in the Major Leagues. What are your plans as his agent?
He's a very talented and capable player.
This season will determine his chances of joining the Major League.
Please keep your interest in Lim Jun Ho.
Thank you so much for coming today.
Wait, one more thing.
There's a rumor that Sports K plans to work with your agency.
Is that true?
- I don't know... - I'll answer that for you.
Sports K and I will continue to discover and bring talent to the world stage.
Our goal is to create a new system of discovering talent.
That's all there is to it.
Can you be more specific about what you mean by a new system?
Now, now, now.
Today's main focus is player Lim Jun Ho.
You can take a picture.
As expected, Yi Seul became a successful agent.
She works for the top sports agency run by Coach.
Anyone can see she is Coach's partner.
They are also on their way to becoming partners in another sense.
We'll begin shooting now. You can throw.
Nice. One more time please.
How is he?
What do you mean?
He may throw the ball well, but he seems like a jerk.
How do you know that?
It's true, isn't it?
He's only throwing the way he wants and not thinking about the pose shot.
By the way, how's the movie going?
If it's not going to work, I wish it would just end.
If we get the money, we'll start filming again.
Me with baseball. You with movies.
Tae Nam with Chae Ri.
None of us will give up.
We can't give up. It's been too long.
Oh. Have you seen Yi Seul and Coach?
Yeah.
I hear they set a date.
I heard too.
Since she turned down his first proposal, I thought they were just going to stay friends.
But Coach won her over in the end.
I think I like you as a woman.
I've always liked you, but these feelings were confirmed.
This is love.
You remember, right?
Yi Seul didn't like Coach at first.
She kept complaining that he was riding in on someone's coattails.
Come to think of it, things turned out pretty strange.
True.
Why is someone so young acting so stuck up?
But I've wondered about this for a while...
Why did you do that three years ago?
Do what?
Why did you fail that first squad test?
You should have passesd it.
If you had, you would have been doing better than that punk over there.
Next is about Kim Yuna.
Kang Baek Ho. They want to see you.
Come in.
Hello sir.
You know about the Japanese test, right?
Get ready for it.
Me?
Did you give up on college and go pro just to play for this team?
Oh? Really? Really?
Thank you! Thank you sir!
You haven't even pass yet. Why thank me already?
Just keep doing what you're doing.
Yes sir! Thank you sir! Thank you!
Enough!
You useless trash! You're not a pro!
This should be a matter of life or death for you! Not something you come into drunk!
Kang Baek Ho! Listen well!
As long as I'm in charge, you're never setting foot on the field!
I'm sorry.
You crazy punk.
What are you all doing? Wrap this up.
No matter how upset I was, I shouldn't have made that mistake.
That moment, I lost my right to be a player and my right to love Yi Seul.
Hey Baek Ho.
Is something bothering you?
Why are you just drinking instead of eating?
It's nothing.
Hey, a guy can lose his appetite once in a while.
Then someone must not be a guy.
Since he always has his appetite come rain or shine.
He eats all that food, yet he doesn't grow...
Hey, all that food is packed in here.
You just don't know.
My body is sturdy.
I don't really want to know.
By the way, are you not getting a new car?
Do you know how embarrassed I was to be seen in that car with you?
I want to change cars too!
But I don't have money.
Ugh. Such a slob.
Jae Soo? Is she still in touch with that jerk?
Didn't he say he was getting married a couple of years ago?
He did, but I think he got divorced...
So he's clinging onto Chae Ri now that he's divorced?
And you're not doing anything about it?
You think I have a right to say anything?
What's going on? Leaving me out again...
You're here.
The soon-to-be wife of a chaebol still hasn't eaten.
Are you sure you can eat with lowlifes like us?
Tae Nam, you!
Don't make jokes like that!
Okay, okay. Sorry.
But where's Chae Ri?
She's having a secret phone conversation.
What?
Is she still talking to him?
I told her not to talk to him!
Joo Tae Nam! Aren't you going to do something?
Hey, what can I do?
What can a guy like me do?
As long as Chae Ri is happy...
Do you know you're really pathetic?
You say you like Chae Ri, but it's all just talk.
You never told Chae Ri how you feel about her.
Hey, what else can Tae Nam do?
You've always been that way.
You've always liked Chae Ri, but if you see her with another man, you just give up.
If she goes to another man, and you don't even try to stop her...
How can she know?
How can she trust you?
That's not enough for a woman.
What? Do you have something to say?
Oh...no...
Then I'll be going...
Yi Seul...
Yeah?
How come you never asked me?
About what?
The test three years ago.
Aren't you even curious?
Why not?
Can I be honest?
Yeah. Be honest.
Because I was afraid of knowing the truth.
For the first time that day, you weren't the Kang Baek Ho that I knew.
Whatever the reason...
I was afraid I wouldn't understand and be disappointed.
I didn't know how to ask you.
Sorry.
I'm sorry.
It's all in the past, so just forget it.
I'll be going.
Test! The Japanese test! I can't believe it!
Stop drinking man!
What's wrong with this punk?
I have the Japanese test tomorrow. If I make the Japanese league...
- That's when I'll do it. - What is he saying?
You think making the test is that easy?
Get a hold of yourself man!
If I make the Japanese team, I'm really going to tell her.
What?
My feelings!
After all I've been through...
All you've what?
That day, you weren't the Kang Baek Ho that I knew.
There were a lot of times my heart hurt because of you.
But I was never disappointed in Kang Baek Ho the player.
Before that test that is.
I lost myself in jealousy.
I lost the chance of a lifetime.
I disappointed Yi Seul.
Why did you do that Kang Baek Ho?
Why did you make such a huge mistake?
If I could go back, I would never disappoint her.
I want her to see me doing my best.
Come out.
Please come out.
Please come out!
In all my life, I've never met a kid like you.
Conductor!
That's right. Conductor is here.
That stupid Conductor! If he sends me out, he should do it properly.
If you think about it, I really have no pride.
Even after you bad mouth me, I still come when you call.
You don't know how to be grateful.
Oh that time, I really didn't realize how grateful I was...
But I'm really sorry about that time.
And thank you so much for coming out again.
Don't get the wrong idea.
I was so sick of your attitude. I came out because I was going to anyway.
I didn't come out because you called.
Thank you. Thanks.
So you want to go back to that test you failed three years ago?
Yes.
If you go back, you probably won't do something as stupid as go drinking before the test.
But do you really think you'll be able to pass the test?
I'm going to do my best. Really!
Do you want to pass the test or do you want Yi Seul?
Oh...well...
I want to be a man that Yi Seul can be proud of.
I guess that's what it comes down to in the end.
I apologize.
When people hear Park Chan Ho, they think of a great Major League ball player.
They only remember his impressive stats.
But do you know what made Park Chan Ho great?
Even if he can't be the best, he'll still strive to reach the top.
Those are words you should heed.
Thank you. I'll do my best.
Don't do your best, just pass the test!
Renovatio.
Yi Seul!
Next is news on Kim Yuna. In her short program for the Grand Prix Final...
She charged the number one spot with a total score of 163.2.
Kang Baek Ho. They want to talk to you.
You know the Japanese test is tomorrow, right?
That's right.
Prepare for it well.
Really?
What? Did you drop out of college and become a pro just to play here?
Thank you sir. Thank you!
You haven't even pass yet. Why thank me already?
Just keep doing what you're doing.
Yes sir. Thank you.
I did it! I'm back!
Nothing else matters Kang Baek Ho. You need to pass tomorrow's test.
The number you are trying to reach is currently unavailable...
I have to stop them first. Yes, I can still stop them.
I'm sorry Coach, but not this time.
Okay Jae Soo. I'm on my way.
Okay.
That jerk doesn't mean what he says.
He's just using you like before because he's lonely.
He'll probably betray you again.
- I know. - Then why are you still going to him?
Because that's how I am.
I can't help what my heart feels.
Go ahead.
He's giving you a second chance.
- You should see it through. - What are you saying man?
I don't know about others, but I understand you.
So I won't stop you.
Don't worry and go ahead.
I'll be cheering you on.
Hey Joo Tae Nam.
What are you doing? Go after Chae Ri.
What's the point in going after her?
You'll really regret it later.
I won't regret anything.
You both know it too.
No matter how hard I try, I can't have a girl like Chae Ri.
In the end, I'm just a creature content to look upon a sun called Yoo Chae Ri.
I'm a lucky sunflower.
Just a sunflower and his sun...
Hey Joo Tae Nam!
You're going to give up before you even tell her how you feel?
You hit a homerun for Chae Ri.
When other said you couldn't, you did it!
Hold onto her. Hold her so that she can't go anywhere. Got it?
The number you are trying to reach is unavailable.
Ham Yi Seul. Where are you?
Nice to meet you. My name is Ham Yi Seul.
Nice to meet you Yi Seul. I am Jin Won's father.
Yes. It's nice to meet you.
Let's sit down.
Yes.
You don't have to address me formally.
I'm an employee at Coach's company. I'm just his student.
I think you're more to him than that.
Pardon?
I think you're more like a protegee to Jin Won.
I don't know what you mean.
This is the first time I've seen Jin Won look after someone so closely.
I don't mean to make things difficult.
I just mean to say that Jin Won thinks highly of you.
I've always been curious about you.
My wife and I have always had an interest in you.
I see. Thank you.
But why did you call me out today?
I have a favor to ask.
Me?
As you know, Jin Won needs to take over the family business.
When he first started baseball, we made a team because we thought it was his fate.
I see.
Now I'm trying to have him come help me out, but he won't listen to me.
So I called you hoping you could convince him.
I don't know what he wants to do by creating a sports agency.
Excuse me but... I don't think I should interfere with this matter.
And neither should you.
Despite that...
Despite that, if you want to know my opinion...
I'll be honest.
I don't think Jin Won will join the family business.
Why's that?
Because he has other dreams.
Other dreams?
A dream of going down a road that hasn't been taken.
If it's a matter of getting to a destination,
isn't it better for him to go down a road that's already been paved?
It's not about the destination.
It's about taking the journey.
Well, this is all my opinion.
I see I've called the right person.
Sir...
If there's nothing more to say, I'll get going.
It was nice to meet you.
I have a feeling we'll be seeing each other often.
Sorry?
Here you go.
Here. Go ahead.
It's hot.
Wow. It's really good.
Keep eating. I'll pack some up for you.
Okay.
When I was young, around dinnertime, I was like a sparrow to its nest,
I came to Yi Seul's for dinner.
The warm bowl of rice. The side dishes were all nice...
But my favorite part was seeing her mother's back...
Something I never had...
A mother's back...
Did my back age too?
What?
The person who knows my back better than anyone isn't my daughter or my husband...
but you Baek Ho.
- You knew? - Of course I knew. I'm a mother.
But Baek Ho...
I know this because I'm a mother, but I need to tell you something.
What?
A girl doesn't know how you feel unless you tell her directly.
Even if she knows how you feel, if you don't tell her, she thinks there's no meaning.
She becomes suspicious.
But still, she knows.
Even if you don't say it, you know it.
In a relationship, it's not like that when it comes to matters of the heart.
That's why men and women are complicated.
I seem pathetic to you, don't I?
Not at all. You're the best man, Baek Ho.
So, Baek Ho. Have a little more confidence.
Okay, I'll do that.
I promise.
Okay. This is getting cold. Go ahead.
Sure.
Go ahead.
You really aren't going to tell me what happened?
I told you that's all.
I got a job offer, but I wasn't very happy with the benefits so I turned it down.
Are you going to go if he gives you a better deal?
And leave me?
But honestly, I don't think I'm cut out for it.
I got so intimidated in front of the president.
I think it's better to work for a hole in the wall company.
Hole in the wall?
Isn't that a bit harsh?
Not if you compare it to other companies.
You're devastatingly honest.
So you're going to fire me?
Have a safe trip home.
Ham Yi Seul.
Don't leave unless I fire you.
Coach.
I'm leaving.
Even though I expected it, it's still shocking.
I don't know which time hurts more.
This is harder than I thought.
Is it worse to see this moment twice or knowing that Yi Seul will be Coach's wife?
Come to your senses Kang Baek Ho!
If you get weak here, there was no point in coming back.
Baek Ho!
Hey Ham Yi Seul! What's with that look?
Did something just happen?
No.
What's up?
Something urgent came up.
Something happened?
Yeah. Something did.
Something very important.
So I need your help.
What is it?
First, let's go somewhere.
- Where? - You'll know when we get there. Hurry.
Kang Baek Ho.
You're awake?
Just wear it.
What's with you all of a sudden?
Yi Seul.
Tomorrow, I... Nevermind.
To be accurate, it's today.
Today in the afternoon, I'm taking a test.
A test?
The first squad test?
Really?
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
Nevermind.
But why are you here then?
You should be getting ready? Why drive here in the middle of the night?
Ham Yi Seul.
Ham Yi Seul!
If I throw this ball, and it hits that bottle...
Then we're going out together.

Yi Seul... Yi Seul...
Can't you tell? I'm taking off my clothes?
But why in the car?
Kang Baek Ho! Fighting!
Good luck Kang Baek Ho!
Good luck!
You've made it to the first squad.
- We have news. - Marriage?
You two are getting married?
I apologize!
He's looking for a wife. Keep that in mind.
