[Thumping Spike]
[Episode 11: Doubt]
I'm sorry for hitting you.
It continued to bother me.
Don't worry about it.
I was going to tell the reporters...
why I had no choice but to become a coach.
When I'm no longer able to play on the court
I wondered if they'd understand me... or if they'd misunderstand.
Even though it's risky...
I was about to put everything on the line.
I thought you would get hurt if you stayed at the residence
and that's why I told you to leave.
Because I can't protect you...
Because of my selfishness...
I hurt you even more.
Win the President's Cup.
Hanbit University...
I hope you can go.
Thank you.
I'll treasure this one.
Does he like me?
Oh, no way. I must be crazy. Kang Se Ra, you're a coach!
But... I quit that job...
and if he likes me...
Oh my god, I'm crazy.
You're a student, and I'm a teacher!
And I'm slowly going insane...
Get your head together, Kang Se Ra.
Who's that?
Baek Woo Jin!
What did you do all day?
Do you know what time it is?
That kid...
When were you going to tell me?
If you want to terminate our contract, go ahead.
You never intended to renew our contract, did you?
I haven't received my down payment yet
but since a contract is a contract, I'll pay the cancellation fee.
You grew up, Kang Se Ra.
Terminate our contract? I won't do that.
Representative!
How will I use Kang Se Ra, who can no longer play volleyball?
Aren't you curious?
He's not answering.
Do you think he's sick?
Has Woo Jin ever skipped practice because he was sick?
- That's true... - What's going on?
Okay! Let's start practice!
- Okay! - Okay!
Let's go.
Louder, louder!
Where did Woo Jin go?
What is he doing? Why isn't he answering?
Jung Eul Young?
Hey, Jung Eul Young!
- Coach? - Coach!
Hi.
- Hello. - Hello.
Practice! Keep practicing...
How did they know it was me?
Does she call that a disguise?
What? You haven't seen Woo Jin?
That's strange.
When I called him yesterday, he said he was practicing and told me not to worry.
Last night?
Yeah... last night...
before I saw you.
Why are you hiding your face?
I should be the one to do that!
Oh, sorry about that... I was caught off guard.
Did I look like a volleyball?
Hey, of course not! I won't do that next time.
Really? Then... I'll look forward to next time.
What?
Wait, that's not what I meant...
Guys! Let's end it here for today!
- Sure! - Okay!
- Good work! - Good job everyone!
Coach, when are you coming back to the residence?
What?
Hey, after the reporters mobbed us the other day...
- Why does that matter? - But they corrected that false report.
What about practice? You'll continue to coach us, won't you?
About that...
Yes, Representative.
It won't be impactful if you walk into the hospital on your own two feet.
So I was thinking...
that we would hold a game in which you will participate.
If you collapse at an appropriate time, an ambulance will take you away.
In an interview with the medical team, we will expose your injury to the world.
What will happen then? You will win them over with pity!
That's when we will transition it to an interview with you!
Yes! Just like that!
That's how we will reveal it to the entertainment world.
This is our plan.
You'll use my injury... to get their pity?
No, no. No need to look at it so negatively.
Secretary Kim.
Leave us.
I'm not good at anything but volleyball, and I'm okay with that.
I held my first volleyball when I was eleven years old.
My desire was to play as an athlete for over thirty years until I was forty!
Not even my family knows this dream of mine.
But someone who knows that...
Was this what you meant?
When you said you were going to use me?
Jae Woong, where are you going?
I'm going to blow off some steam and exercise.
Watch the house! Don't think about it sneaking out.
- Sure. - Yes!
- Bye! - Goodbye.
Hey, Baek Woo Jin!
Come out.
Jae Woong.
Hey, did you think that tree could hide you?
Hey.
Did you... have practice today?
If you're so worried about that, why did you skip practice?
Well, I was worried that we lost Coach Kang
and we don't have much time until the President's Cup.
You lead the team before we had a coach!
And it was a complete mess!
That was because you made us practice around an impossible schedule!
You've learned properly this time.
The person in Coach Kang's photos...
That's you, isn't it?
What the heck...
I already came out.
- But you weren't there to hear it. - I was there.
That was when our coach was meeting with her agency representative.
Hasn't the representative said anything to you?
Like what?
It's nothing.
What kind of man holds things in like a wimp?
Can't you say whatever you're thinking?
The representative... told me not to see Coach Kang.
So, did you promise him that you wouldn't?
Not a promise, but we signed a contract.
Under the condition that I don't see her again, he evacuated the reporters.
Are you serious? This isn't a joke?
If you meet her... is he going to kill you?
He said he'll make sure... I never hold a volleyball again...
And he calls himself a representative...
Wow...
This was the only thing I could do... to help Coach Kang.
What you did was useless...
What I did was useless too...
But why did you follow me?
You followed me from our residence didn't you?
Well... I thought you would understand me, out of all people...
Wow, I have no idea how you feel.
To me, you look like you can't choose what you want because you have it all.
Volleyball? It's fine if it doesn't work out.
You're studying so you can keep your options open.
I've never thought of volleyball as something that I can give up.
The reason I studied so hard was so I could play volleyball.
My father is the one who's trying to get rid of our volleyball team...
At least you can cuss at him all you want!
If I do that, I'm a disgrace.
So what makes you think I have it all?
Aren't you eating?
- Here you go, thank you! - Thank you.
Goodbye!
Thank you for the meal, we have to pay...
You...
Ma'am, how much is it?
Yes, it's 3,500 won.
Ma'am, that camera...
Does it shoot the outside of the store as well?
Yes, there's a camera outside too, we shoot everything.
We just need to check between the hours of 9 and 10 o'clock on the 13th.
Okay.
Wait a second!
They're the ones.
Who are they?
The guys who came and argued with us and left, the night before the scandal.
That day, two of them stayed and tried to talk to us...
but one person didn't say anything.
I'm wondering if that guy took the photos.
Wait, it's these guys, right?
You're right... They're wearing the same clothes.
- When was this? - Um... wait a second.
Um... this was the day before the 13th.
And... this was two days ago.
If they didn't change their clothes for four days...
were they on undercover duty?
Paparazzi? Or are they stalkers?
Wait! These people...
Oh my, they're going into the convenience store across the street.
There won't be any problems, right?
I didn't tell my boss about this.
We're just here to check something... my friend.
Why are you so scared? Are you a coward, my friend?
That looks good...
I'm okay with expired kimbap...
So, come on... Give me some food, I'm hungry.
Stuff your face in moderation.
Wait, wait, wait, what?
Who is it?
[Thumping Spike]
- I'm sorry. - I'll ask you for three favors.
I want to be their coach, at least until they play in the President's Cup.
Is this a good thing? I feel uncomfortable and uneasy...
- I'm going to start training with you. - Don't act friendly with me.
From now on, your job is to watch Baek Woo Jin and Hwang Jae Woong.
Report to me about how they interact with Kang Se Ra.
Why do you want to train with me all of a sudden?
I have someone... I need to protect.
