GOING TO YOU AT A SPEED OF 493KM

THE PLACES, PEOPLE, ORGANIZATIONS, AND EVENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTIONAL

Long time no see, Junghwan.

Have you been well?

This is so awkward.

Who would've thought you and my brother would get to know each other?

I'll leave you two to talk.

See you next time.

But I came to see you.

Why don't you put that down?

I'm in front of my brother.

EPISODE 10

What about Taejun? Did he go back to Seoul?

How would I know?

But you're back. He should've stayed for a meal.

When will you two stop being so indifferent toward each other?

CHUNCHEON SPORTING GOODS

Why is she your sister?

Do you think this makes sense?

I'm not very happy about it either.

Ever since I was young, I was a nobody in the shadows of my great sister.

I thought, "Why does Junyoung have to be my sister?"

I really wanted to escape from that.

That's why…

That's why.

That's why, what?

That's why

"Great job."

"Good work."

"Awesome."

I've never said anything nice like that to her.

Ever.

What are you blabbering on about? Gosh.

You.

You're not Junyoung's brother, are you?

When she got into that accident three years ago,

I didn't know how

to comfort her.

It's not like I've ever done that before.

But during that time,

you stood beside her.

You did for her what I couldn't.

You went through the pain together.

So for that, I'm a little…

Well…

I really thank you for that.

You're seeing Taeyang when you feel this bad for Junyoung?

Why mention that?

Does Taeyang know that you and Junyoung are related?

If she did,

do you think she'd go out with me?

Then should I just… spill the beans?

Goodness.

Three years ago…

Right.

Like you said, I went through everything with Junyoung.

Do you know how difficult that was?

Do you have any idea

what a complete disaster it was?

You're dredging up all of that.

Her one and only brother is dating Taeyang?

Don't you think that's too harsh?

-I feel so bad for Junyoung. -Gosh.

Where are you going, nutcase?

I'll head back first.

All right. Get some rest.

-Get home safe. -I will.

After Junyoung retired,

Taeyang ran away from the training center.

Gosh, I just can't figure it out.

What's with those two? She even knelt down.

I don't want to know.

My gut is telling me that I'm better off not knowing.

PARK TAEJUN

Yes?

Are you with Taeyang?

Her phone's off.

We came to Seoul together,

and Taeyang just left to go home--

Hello?

Hello?

What's with-- Oh, my gosh.

It was Taejun, wasn't it?

He's totally drunk.

Why is he looking for Taeyang when he's drunk?

No. I don't want to know about that either.

The person you have reached is not available.

Why isn't she picking up?

I took a taxi here all the way from Chuncheon.

Taeyang, what are you doing?

I'm here.

If you don't come out,

I'm going in.

Taeyang.

Good night.

Hi, it's been a while.

Did you enjoy your time off?

Why you little… How could you ghost me for a week?

I could sack you for that.

I'm sorry.

Be careful.

Yes, sir.

So, how are you feeling?

Great, sir!

Good. Make sure to be nice to me from now on.

Yes, sir.

Okay. I'll see you during training.

Aren't you going to hurry?

I'm going!

Hey. Could you forgive what happened if you were me?

Do you think begging on your knees makes it forgivable?

It's so difficult with you.

You make it so difficult on others.

I really hate you.

What are you doing? Why can't you serve?

I need to take a short break, sir.

What have you done to deserve a break?

It'll just be a short break.

What the heck do you think you're doing?

What is it? So, because you've been getting some attention lately,

do you think that's it? You're done?

That's when you can go downhill in a second. Get a grip!

Is Coach Joo at it again? Is he being hard on the kids?

He does it after every competition so the players don't slack off.

But picking on one person to get everyone on their toes isn't

-what you do nowadays-- -Are you talking behind his back?

I'm just worried about him.

Right. It's worrisome.

Coach Joo will never get married if he keeps doing that.

Think about it. It's the end for us if the athletes don't like us.

Who do you think would be willing to take on a coach that athletes hate?

That's why you should give Coach Joo some advice.

Me? Why would I do that?

Hey, all they do is talk behind my back if I tell them the right things.

Like what you're doing now.

What did I do? He just worries me.

Okay, okay. I won't tell him.

What do you mean? I'm just worried about him.

Is there anything else going on?

There's nothing. Gosh, stop laughing.

-What? -All right.

Taeyang. Stay behind and hit 5,000 shuttlecocks before you leave.

Aren't you going to answer me?

Yes, sir.

PARK TAEJUN

What are you looking at? Get ready.

Please don't ask about the past.

However, the story about your injury will

help viewers empathize with you more.

It was such a shame that you got injured

while you were training on your own.

Ma'am.

Viewers nowadays get disgusted when a show appeals for sympathy.

But still, you do need to do it a little

to get people to start watching.

"Park Junyoung is off to a new start. A familiar face."

I thought that's what this interview would be about. I'm sorry.

In that case, are you okay with filming at the National Training Center?

-What's up? -You little punk.

Are you living with a girl?

What are you talking about?

Are you at my place?

I told you my place is off-limits.

There was a reason why you didn't want me here.

What kind of nonsense have you been up to here?

Goodness. So you're a man. This is quite shocking.

Junyoung.

Look at that. A spoon and chopsticks for two.

Hey, I also noticed two toothbrushes.

One was pink.

I guess the entire place will be pink when I come back in a month.

What is this? You're not the type to buy cups.

Was this a wedding gift?

Is there a child hidden away somewhere? Maybe I could find one.

It's my private life.

Let's see that girlfriend of yours.

Is she pretty? Do you have a picture?

Is she an athlete too?

Why aren't you saying anything?

Hey, I'm lying on your bed right now,

and it feels a little weird.

Shut up, will you?

Hey, when you two are on a date,

can I take a peek from far away?

I'm really curious.

Are you staying over tonight?

I have to go. I'm busy.

All right. Your bed doesn't suit me.

I'll get going.

Gosh. Where am I supposed to stay when I'm in Seoul now?

Hey, will you just break up with her?

I'm hanging up.

Hey, Taejun.

I'm all for you dating.

Thanks.

Here, go!

Go faster. You're slow.

Get there first.

What are you doing?

Coach.

Something's wrong with me.

What is it?

It feels different when I'm hitting with my racket.

The grip doesn't feel right.

It sounds different when I swing.

It also feels different when I hit the shuttlecock.

I've lost my touch.

I didn't slack off after the tournament,

and I'm not elated by getting some attention.

Is it the opposite then?

Are you upset about not getting as much attention as you wanted?

I just…

I just hate myself.

I see myself running around with a racket,

and it makes me feel small.

Those are useless thoughts.

I think I'm in a slump.

I'm sure you know.

You can feel it the moment you're in it.

A slump.

When I was an athlete, I often used that as an excuse.

I said I was in a slump whenever I wanted to run away,

when I didn't feel confident enough,

or when I just wanted to take some time off.

Do you think being in a slump gives you a free pass?

-That's not what I-- -Drop the act.

From now on, hit 5,000 shuttlecocks every weekday.

You should film it and upload the video daily.

That's all for today.

You're alive.

I came to carry you out in case you passed out.

What is this? You're pouting as if you're about to cry.

It's actually cute.

You see, Coach Joo…

What about Coach Joo?

-He flipped-- -He flipped out on you?

Yes.

He told me to hit 5,000--

He told you to hit 5,000 shuttlecocks every day?

Yes, except on the weekends.

But how can you understand me so well?

Seriously.

Should I stand up to Coach Joo?

Just say the word.

I'm in big trouble.

I know. It's not going to be easy.

How are you supposed to hit 5,000 every night?

Not that.

Whenever I'm holding a racket,

it keeps reminding me of Junyoung.

I shouldn't be thinking of anything when I'm playing.

Where should I run to now?

Gosh.

I'm exhausted too.

Because of me?

Have I been a little too much to handle these days?

Are you getting a little tired of me?

No, it was just a slip of the tongue.

I'm sorry I keep talking about how hard everything is.

Let's recharge.

We both need to recharge.

Tighter.

I'm sorry.

Wait, that just got us disconnected.

We have to recharge. Stop distracting me.

Charged up to 20%.

30%.

31%.

That's it?

32%.

Let's stay like this to charge ourselves up to a full 1,000%.

33%.

34%.

35%.

35.1%.

Isn't decimal points a bit too much?

From today onward, my rival is Park Junyoung.

I must surpass Park Junyoung at all costs.

What's with her?

This is all my fault.

I've ruined her.

I guess she's doing well, though.

-What's with Yumin? -Is she on drugs?

Maybe she was drinking.

Good morning. It's a nice day.

Let's do this!

Now that I've embarrassed myself, I'll get my act together and do my best.

Let's move on by playing sports. Cheer up, Yumin!

Let's do this!

Keep it up!

I can't breathe.

I really can't breathe.

So we'll only film you saying hello

to the other athletes and watching them practice.

Not bad, right?

-How cruel. -Oh my.

-What? -Who is that?

-Junyoung! -Hey, Junyoung.

Hey, long time no see.

-Coach, how have you been? -She looks great.

-No way! -It's been so long!

-How have you been? -Junyoung, I love you.

-Gosh, you're still the same. -Junyoung!

-I'm a huge fan. -Thank you.

-It's been forever. -I'll call you.

Hello, Mr. Yook Junghwan.

Aren't you two close? Could we interview--

No.

I have nothing to say.

You really have nothing to say?

Please do the interview.

Let's talk separately, you and me.

Come to the back gate after you're done.

We were just… in a tournament…

What's with the half marathon?

-Run. -Run! Gosh.

With the special training, you must be exhausted.

I'm okay, sir.

Tell me if you're not. I can talk to Coach--

Stop tempting me when I'm dying here.

Mr. Sibong. Doesn't it look like she could be talked into doing something?

-What? -Okay.

Do you know how to get to the finish line without breaking a sweat?

Run slowly and fall behind,

far enough so Coach can't see us.

Go away, you devil.

You've been hitting 5,000 shuttlecocks every night these days.

-You should think about your body-- -Get lost.

At least run slowly then.

Or let's just walk. Let's take a short break.

If you stop, you want to lie down.

If you lie down, you want to give up.

Gosh.

Did you read my emails?

I sent one every week…

for three years.

I worried a lot about you.

You can't say you didn't know that.

I wanted to pretend not to know.

Why?

Because I hate you.

Did I really get hurt while I went hiking alone?

Did you forget that it was a lie?

It happened because I got drunk and sneaked out to go snowboarding.

I want to forget everything that happened back then.

And you know what happened, so I don't want to see you.

I hate you.

I just do.

Seriously…

You're just so mean.

Why should I get heartbroken by you?

Let's end it, Junghwan.

All right.

I'm going to end it too.

Let's end this.

Hang in there till the end.

-Okay. -All right.

Let's go.

-You can do it. -Good work.

You did it.

-Great work. -All right.

You're tired but stretch out your legs.

You'll get muscle cramps.

Here. Good job, Taeyang.

-Thank you. -Good job to you too, Taejun.

Thanks.

Don't lie down. You have to stretch.

-Just a minute. -Get over here.

Okay.

You can stay put.

Do you want some water?

I feel like throwing up.

Thank you, Youngsim.

Sungsil, thanks.

Why did you run till the end and not give up in the middle?

You're stupid.

Coach, why don't we go and get Taeyang some meat?

I can make a reservation.

-Good idea. -All right, let's do that.

You can eat, get some rest,

and hit 5,000 shuttlecocks tonight.

I don't want to.

I won't do it.

What?

Say that again.

I'm not in good condition,

and my body isn't 100%.

I'll stop the additional training and take a break.

All right.

Do it. You can be on a break for good.

Don't show up to train when you're not in the condition to do what your coach says.

You're banned from using the training center.

Don't even get a drop of sweat on your team uniform.

That is, until you can hit 5,000 shuttlecocks again.

Thank you. I'll enjoy my break.

Taejun.

Go with her. She could collapse any minute.

Okay.

"I don't want to. I won't do it."

When those words came out of your mouth,

I felt so relieved.

Good job.

Just cross the street.

Aren't you going to go?

That green person over there.

Why can't I stand to look at him?

He's forcing us to run.

As if something bad will happen if we don't run now.

Ten,

nine, eight, seven…

It's like he's threatening us.

Run because you have to.

Run in case something bad happens.

Simply run as a first resort.

I'm really tired of it.

You can take a break now and cross next time.

But I end up running.

That's the way I am.

Let's run.

Hold on!

Goodbye. See you tomorrow!

You're going? Wait.

See you tomorrow.

Where are you going? Taeyang!

My legs suddenly gave out.

Maybe being in front of you is making me weak in the knees.

Junyoung.

I'm sorry,

but can't you forgive me?

If you can't forgive me,

I can't forgive myself.

But

this feeling of guilt is

making me suffocate.

Junyoung.

Can I just say

it was me who got you injured

and that you covered for me?

Can I just come clean?

I could get all the blame

and punishment for what I've done.

Could I do that?

Although it's late.

Why did you thank me?

You…

Why did you thank me?

What do you mean?

When I was in the hospital after I got hurt,

you said that to me.

"Thank you."

Don't cry.

It's no use crying over spilled milk.

I'll get better after doing some rehab.

Junyoung.

Thank you, Junyoung.

Thank you so much

for covering up for me.

Thank you for saving me.

I promise

I'll do anything to help.

Let's get you all better soon,

so we can train together.

After destroying my life,

was thank you

all you could think to say to me?

I…

I…

Don't you remember?

You thanking me was

such a huge burden for me.

The operation was a failure. The rehabilitation was a failure.

I was dying as I was going through that phase, but I couldn't tell the truth,

even to my own family,

about how I got hurt or how much I was struggling.

While I was suffering in the hospital by myself,

what were you doing?

Were you having fun playing badminton while feeling thankful to me?

And now you want to come clean?

After all this time?

When everyone else thinks

I got injured while training,

you want to bring it up now?

To make yourself feel better?

Taeyang.

Hey, Park Taeyang.

Is that all you can do?

You just can't make up your mind.

You can't stop being selfish,

but you want to be a good person.

As always, you're pathetic.

You're right.

I really am like that.

Taeyang, you're so pathetic.

What should I do?

Junghwan.

Is something wrong?

Why are you practicing so hard?

I just wanted to practice quietly on my own.

What? Why are you avoiding me?

Let's play one set.

What are you up to?

I just want to play a match.

Why do you play sports?

Sports?

It's fun to win.

I see.

This is fun for you.

I don't find it fun.

I play because I hate losing.

So for me,

I'm not that happy even when I win.

I guess I'm just relieved that I didn't lose.

Well, that sounds tough.

Yes.

That's why I'm better than you.

"You can't beat the guy who's enjoying himself"?

That's all gibberish.

I want to die when I lose.

So regardless of whether I'm enjoying myself,

I play with all that I've got.

I'm not interested in winning or losing against someone like you.

But the thing is, I don't lose to anyone.

You'll never have a chance to win against me.

Stop messing around.

Just clean this up and go.

That jerk…

He keeps getting on my nerves.

Good morning!

-Hello, sir. -Good morning, Coach.

What is this? Where's Taeyang?

She's not here yet?

She refused the additional training, so I told her not to come.

What are you talking about?

I'll tell you about it later.

All right, let's get ready. Everyone, to your positions.

-Coach Joo. A minute? -Sure.

About Taeyang.

Let's bring her back.

What?

She wasn't officially penalized.

I don't think it's right to ban her from coming to training.

Hey, Seungwoo. You punk!

This is none of your business.

When a person keeps hitting a wall,

of course, they can lose their temper.

-Please bring Taeyang back. -Hey!

How dare an athlete give unsolicited advice to a coach?

Look at this team spirit.

Go practice, all of you.

-Coach Joo. A minute? -Coach Lee.

What is it this time?

Are you going to stand up to me too?

Why you little… Let's go over there.

But Coach--

Stop.

Gosh.

Seriously, what's wrong with you?

Why did you kick her out like that?

Bring her back, okay?

Until she comes to me herself and apologizes,

for the sake of our team, I'm not going to give in.

What kind of a blockhead are you?

A blockhead… Coach?

Listen. If you kick out an athlete just because she doesn't follow orders,

who would trust and lean on you?

Don't try to force the athletes to respect you.

Act like someone who deserves respect.

Wait. Do you mean I'm in the wrong here?

You punk!

Don't you remember why I lost my job with the national team?

You saw what happened, and yet you're making the same--

I respected you for being such a tough coach.

That's why I followed you here.

-My annual salary-- -Coach.

Mr. Kim. What were you doing?

-I didn't do anything. -Why not?

What were you doing when she got banned?

My heart was aching.

-That Sibong… -Mr. Sibong.

It's not like we can report her missing to the police.

How on earth are we supposed to find where Taeyang is?

Our coaches seem to be on the same side.

I think we shouldn't blow this out of proportion and let it--

I'll take full responsibility, so let's find her.

Taeyang's phone is turned off.

She's also not checking her texts.

Go back to check the dorm

and any place nearby where she could be at.

She might be wandering nearby, unable to come back.

That could be the case.

Do we have to do this?

If athletes don't stick up for each other, then who will?

Go find her.

-What are you doing? Let's go. -Of course.

Hurry up.

-Go start the car. -You haven't done that yet?

Taejun.

Why are you still here?

I wouldn't come back either

unless Coach called first to apologize.

I'm just going to take a nap.

The person you have reached is not available. Please try…

PARK TAEYANG

Where did you go?

Miss.

We're open for business.

We do takeout too.

Mom, can I have 2,000 won?

But you got spending money yesterday.

Why would I accept money from that guy?

What's wrong with his money?

I just want 2,000 won.

What is it for?

I just want to buy something to eat.

-I'm not your bank. Stop asking me. -Come on.

-Do you want some coffee? -No, I want money.

CAFE, SUNSHINE

Who are you?

What is this?

Just take it.

Mom, do you know her?

Take it.

It's okay.

PARK TAEJUN

Why are you looking for Taeyang here?

Isn't she training?

We all got some time off.

But your break is over.

It got extended for a few more days.

It's something urgent, but I couldn't get hold of her.

What are you talking about? She went to train.

Is something wrong?

No. I think she went somewhere to get some rest.

If Taeyang comes here, please ask her to give me a call.

Who's that? Taeyang's boyfriend?

Boyfriend, my foot. She's busy training.

Don't you know him? He's Park Junyoung's little brother.

What? Park Junyoung?

Yes.

When he was a kid,

he asked me to teach him so he could escape his sister's shadow.

I spoke with his parents back then.

It's cold. You should've called or picked up your phone.

Where have you been all day?

You're a lifesaver.

You truly are.

How angry is Coach Joo?

I'm in trouble, right?

I forbid you to talk about training.

Is that all you want to talk about when you finally skipped training?

Gosh.

That's why you have to make a habit out of playing hooky.

Tell me a true story about yourself.

A true story about me?

Yes.

Your hobbies, your favorite restaurant,

your friends, a time when you went on a trip.

You know, things like that.

I don't know.

Nothing is really coming to mind.

In that case,

who do you miss the most?

Or,

who do you hate the most?

The answer to both would be my mom.

My biological mother.

Is she alive?

Yes.

I used to see her from time to time when I was younger.

And after you grew up?

I only went to see her twice.

The first time was when I won the gold at the National Championships.

And the second time

was three years ago, when I ran away from the National Training Center.

CAFE, SUNSHINE

CAFE, SUNSHINE

It's funny.

I went to see her at my happiest moment

and the most difficult time in my life.

After all, she's still my mom.

Wait.

I guess it's three times now.

Taejun.

I have a question for you too.

Yes?

Have you ever slept with a girl?

Why are you asking me that?

Because I want to sleep with you.

What's wrong? Don't you want to?

Why wouldn't I want to?

But do you want to today? Now?

Yes.

But why all of a sudden?

I don't know.

I wonder what love is.

It's what we're doing now.

What is it that you're doing?

What is love?

What is it? Did you have a bad dream?

It's okay, Taeyang.

Everything's okay.

It's okay.

You know what?

Thank you

for loving me.

Thank you.

I ended up saying thank you again.

What if my thank you

becomes a burden to you as well?

What if it eventually becomes a painful memory for you?

The thought of it made me afraid,

and so I cried again.

TRUTH ABOUT A FORMER NATIONAL ATHLETE

Did I really get hurt while I went hiking alone?

-You have to brace yourself. -Did you forget that it was a lie?

It happened because I got drunk and sneaked out to go snowboarding…

What is bound to happen

will happen in the end.

…And you know what happened,

so I don't want to see you.

I hate you.

I just do.

SHE DIDN'T GET INJURED WHILE TRAINING?

WHAT DID I JUST SEE? I WAS HER FAN

YOOK JUNGHWAN'S A COMPLETE LOSER

SHE'S A TOTAL FRAUD

SHE DESERVED IT

Translated by Sae-byul Chun

GOING TO YOU AT A SPEED OF 493KM

Isn't it ridiculous? Taeyang and me.

It's all in the past.

Why is it coming back to me like this?

I won't make the same mistake this time.

I won't hide behind your back.

-Let's go. -Whoever filmed it,

I'm going to find them. I'm sure I can.

You know, a match that might happen only once in your lifetime.

A match that's worth dying for.

Have you ever played in one?
