[Episode 7: Opportunity]
The volleyball team...
will be abolished!
President Lee has already agreed
and we will officially announce it soon.
There's no way...
When we got rid of the top talents of your team...
you should have expected something like this to happen.
I gave you three years.
Wasn't that more than enough time, Coach Song?
You can leave.
We went in to solve a problem...
but we came out with a bigger one.
What do we do?
Well...
there's nothing we can do.
Are you going to give up so easily, Coach Song?
You see... this school was my own school as well...
I was a volleyball player who bounced all over the court at this school
and this is the school where my career ended.
Coach Kang... I'm sure you thought this too.
You probably wondered how a dwarf like me played volleyball.
My height right now... was my height in elementary school.
But... I overcame my height.
Although I'm short...
my jumping ability... surpassed that of our best player.
If that player jumped once, I jumped twice.
And if he practiced two times, I practiced four to eight times!
But...
this world...
never cared about my efforts... and only saw my short height.
This is the same thing.
In this world, no one claps for last place.
If we don't have the skills...
it's right to disappear.
If you like something, is there such thing as right or wrong?
Can't you like volleyball... even if you're not talented?
Hey, Baek Woo Jin.
You never stay home, do you?
The President's Cup is coming up soon.
Didn't Coach Song tell you anything?
I guess the principal hasn't announced it yet...
- The volleyball team will be abolished. - Excuse me?
The volleyball team will be abolished, understand?
Coach! Have you heard? The volleyball team is being abolished--
Are you going to practice?
Yeah... what about you?
Jae Woong said he had something to do, so we were going to practice without him.
What about the others?
Jin Ah and Won Young went shoe shopping.
I guess everyone's hanging out separately today...
Let's go.
- How did you find out? - My father, what about you?
From the principal...
He cut the top talents of the team, and fired the maid in the residence...
and then he put us on probation...
I guess this was the last step.
What do we do if they really get rid of the team?
What are they getting rid of?
Tell me! What are they getting rid of?
It's so cute...
Thank you, Jae Woong.
Jae Eun... is it okay if you sit for so long? Aren't you tired?
I'm not tired, I'm okay.
She's so happy to see you... what can we do?
Rascal...
If the principal said he's getting rid of the team, it's all over!
If I go back home, my brother will beat me up!
Is he still beating you up?
If you're a thug once, you're a thug for life.
I have to switch schools.
I'll have to go back to Gwangju where my father works.
There's a spare bedroom in my house. Do you want to stay with me?
Jin Ah, can't you give that spare room to me?
- No, I can't. - This guy...
They're terminating our volleyball team, but you all only care about yourselves.
Were you waiting for the team to be terminated?
What did our coach say?
- He's worried... - That doesn't sound like our coach.
I'm sure he said, "What can we do? There's nothing we can do."
The coach sees the rest of us as garbage, except for Jae Woong!
Hey, Lee Han Sol. That's not true!
- Jae Woong! Where are you going? - Are you leaving?
- Jae Woong! - Jae Woong!
Jae Woong! Hey!
Hwang Jae Woong!
Hwang Jae Woong! Hwang Jae Woong!
- Coach! - Coach!
Hey.
Wait a minute, you couldn't find him?
He left on a bus, so I couldn't catch him.
I'll go to his house tomorrow and have a talk with him.
Jae Woong doesn't have a home!
Hey, Soo Bin.
What do you mean?
His sister... is very sick.
His parents quit their jobs, and they even sold their house.
When Jae Woong took time off, he worked every day at the amusement park
and lived in hostels before coming here.
Jae Woong has nowhere else to go!
I'm sorry, it's only for today.
It's nothing.
Is it okay for you to drink? You're still in high school.
I quit school.
Don't you have one semester left?
You were going to show your skills at the President's Cup and join our team.
- Did I say that? - No, the coach did.
Your coach... came to see me.
He said he wanted to put you on our team and asked a lot of questions.
I don't know what's going on, but hold on a little longer.
You're almost there.
The real owner was here...
Oh, what do we do? The fruit at the store downstairs isn't fresh.
Would you like some coffee instead? If you're okay with instant coffee--
No, that's okay. You don't need to.
I'm the one who barged in and bothered you at such a late hour.
Oh, I was here for a visit, and suddenly remembered Jae Woong's sister.
I'm sorry I came so late.
Don't be sorry.
I'm sorry I put Jae Woong in your hands, but couldn't even say hello.
Jae Woong never told me that you were his coach.
Even earlier today, he told me his coach moved into his residence
but I didn't think much of it.
I never would have imagined that his coach was Kang Se Ra.
Mother.
Did you say earlier today?
Yes, he visited this afternoon.
Oh, does he visit often?
How often does he visit? Give me an estimate.
He can't come often because of his training
but he comes by at least once a week to see Jae Eun.
But... why do you ask?
Oh... it's nothing.

Hwang Jae Woong!
You're finally here.
Come back.
What's the point of returning to a team that's being abolished?
We're not going to let that happen.
We're going to play in the President's Cup and solve everything.
But what's the use if you don't come back?
Does your agency let you roam around like this?
Why does the Volleyball Goddess have so much free time?
Volleyball Goddess... I quit all of that.
Can you quit just because you want to?
If I can't even play on the court, I might as well quit.
You can't play on the court? Why?
So what did the doctor say?
"Kang Se Ra, you can't play on the court ever again."
I don't think the doctor would have said that.
I never talked to a doctor!
What?
So you were both the patient and the doctor who came to that conclusion?
When I had the operation five years ago...
they said the surgery would be difficult, but I insisted.
They said I would have to quit volleyball if I relapsed.
Five years...
Don't you think medicine would have developed in that period?
You said you never saw a doctor. You're not even sure if you relapsed!
Let's go!
- Where? - To see a doctor.
No! I'm scared...
I'll be right beside you!
It's not the doctor I'm afraid of...
I'm afraid people will find out.
I'm Kang Se Ra.
I'm only valuable when I'm an athlete. A goddess on the court...
Are you in your right mind?
Whether you play on the court or not, what does that have to do with anyone?
Are you okay with sabotaging your chances of being an athlete?
What about you?
Are you okay with throwing away your chances of becoming an athlete?
Go see a doctor.
Get a proper diagnosis.
Aren't you going to Hanbit University?
Let's win the President's Cup, and go to Hanbit University!

If you don't win first place, we're abolishing the team.
We won't win just because we want to!
I'll step all over the first place team and help you take their place!
Let's go to Hanbit University.
I'm sorry for being harsh on you. In all seriousness, let's re-sign.
Let's go.
If the problem is if he'll come or not, can't we just make him?
Can you tell me if there is a patient here by the name of Hwang Jae Woong?
