THE WINNING TRY

You scumbag!

-Come here. -Ga-ram.

Come.

-Ga-ram. -Come here.

-Don't do this. -Darn it!

-Don't. -Let go.

-Ga-ram. -Darn it!

-Ga-ram! -Move!

Ga-ram!

This is my decision. Don't get in the way.

Why would you make such a decision?

This is not helping me in any way.

Please go.

Just go!

How interesting.

Old sayings are always true.

"Spare the rod, spoil the child."

-I'm sorry. -No, you don't have to be.

Me? This "scumbag"? What do you intend to do? Let's see.

If I'm a scumbag, then what are you? Are you a rotten scumbag?

-What are you doing? -I can't take it anymore!

What kind of man throws a tantrum just because he took a few punches?

And especially in front of your seniors?

You rude piece of shit. What the heck are you doing?

Go!

Please leave.

Please, Ga-ram.

Please stop.

No, don't leave. Do whatever you came here for. Go ahead.

He has a grudge against me. That's all.

Come on, vent it out on me. Let's see this through to the end.

As for the broken glass,

we should cover the cost with the Rugby Team's budget, right?

No, it should come out of Ga-ram's salary.

Interesting.

Very interesting.

-Sorry. -Are you going to clean up?

Yes, I'll take care of it.

Okay. You passed.

See you at the shooting range tomorrow.

I'll bring your bags.

EPISODE 10

Why did you barge in?

What if it led to an accident?

You're lucky no glass hit Nak-gyun, or you'd be done for.

Ju Ga-ram.

-Ga-ram. -These stains might not come off.

Ga-ram.

-Ga-ram. -What?

I was holding myself back.

What I really wanted to do

was break that jerk Nak-gyun into pieces, not the glass.

You're so precious to me.

I'm so careful around you, just in case I accidentally make you cry.

So why do you treat yourself like this?

Stop doing this to yourself. To me, you're so…

So what?

-Why'd you stop mid-sentence? -What?

If I'm not here,

the students will have to deal with this unfair situation.

I'm going to endure it for them.

Just like you, Ga-ram.

Why did you let Coach Bae come back?

She knows way too much.

It'll be a headache if she starts talking,

so it's better to keep her close and watch her carefully.

Be sure to handle any liability concerns in advance.

Of course.

So, what should we do about Ga-ram?

Make him write an apology letter for breaking the glass?

-What's an apology going to do for us? -Then what?

We have to find a way to kick him out for good.

TODAY SPORTS SEO HUI-TAE

I'm interested in the Rugby Team,

especially in Coach Ju Ga-ram.

THE WINNING TRY

Let's talk about it once the in-school tryout is over.

I'll see you at the Nationals.

-Where is she? -Seo U-jin's training on her own.

She'd rather not be here?

No. I think she should focus on her mental health rather than shooting,

so I told her to train alone.

-She'd get on your nerves too. -Hey.

You've become more tactful.

That's good.

You should look after U-jin from now on.

If I do, there might be another accident.

Okay. I got it.

Your hands are shaking.

EQUIPMENT STORAGE RESTRICTED AREA

To regain your balance before the Nationals,

you'll need special training.

I can't even keep my balance on flat ground.

-Will this work? -Let's try it.

I'll hold you.

All right.

Don't focus on holding your balance. Just imagine you're on flat ground.

Once balanced, take the basic stance.

Are you all right? Let me see.

Did you hurt your wrist?

How does it feel?

I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry. You don't need to apologize for an injury.

What if I don't get better, even with all your help?

Then it would be my fault.

I didn't provide you with the proper rehab.

A player just needs to do their best, and the rest is on the coach.

I'll find more ways to help with your recovery,

so don't blame yourself or worry.

Let's try it again.

HANYANG PHYSICAL EDUCATION HIGH SCHOOL

The day is finally here.

THE NATIONALS' DRAW OFFICIAL

We must decide on the draw official for the Nationals.

The draw official determines the opponents for the tournaments

in fencing, table tennis, judo, and rugby,

and picks the lanes for shooting and swimming.

This means he or she holds great responsibility.

In sports, it's fair to say the draw matters the most.

All the effort of the year can vanish into thin air.

Please approach this seriously.

We'll begin now.

For starters,

if you've had a string of bad luck recently, please leave.

If your age ends with nine, please leave.

If you've recently had nightmares or ominous dreams, please leave as well.

All remaining coaches, please gather around.

Please take out your phones.

-From now on-- -Goodness!

Geez, this just…

Please press "check" when you're ready.

FORTUNE-TELLING

-Let's check it. -Let's check.

-It's 77 points. -It's 68 points.

It's 67 points.

It's 100…

It's 100 points!

THIS MONTH'S FORTUNE

Whose is this?

Everyone, we got 100 points!

Hold on.

Coach Ju has never drawn for these competitions before, right?

No experience is required.

The key is to pick the luckiest person.

It's a bit unnerving.

Let's also send the second luckiest person this time.

Sure. Let's do that.

-It's 72. -It's 79.

-It's 78. -We've got 98 points. Whose is this?

It feels like a dream, sitting here with you again.

Geez, that's greasy.

-Do you want a Coke? -Hey.

-Right. We can't order Coke. -Nope.

Look.

There's our history.

Wow, it's from 2004.

I'll write one for this year, too.

We used to come as players every year.

Now, we're sitting here as coaches.

When I was a player,

I didn't know coaches held such a heavy burden.

I thought they just casually watched us train

and yelled at us from time to time.

Had I known it was this tough, I would have listened to them more.

I want to do well.

Just like my coach back then.

Let's do it.

Let's hope our students remember us

as "my coach" or "our coach."

Geez.

Come on.

ALL MY TRIES ARE FOR I-JI

Look here.

I wrote this.

-I wrote one too. -Don't lie to me.

I'm serious.

-Really? -Yes.

-Where? -Just keep eating.

Are you really going to wear that? Come back.

-Are you really going to? -Keep quiet.

Are you?

GA-RAM'S MINE, I'll SHOOT -I-JI

It's too embarrassing. Are we really going to wear that?

-I don't see it. -You promised, okay?

-It's a bit tight. -It's tight for me too.

Keep your head up.

We'll draw for the general division for each city and province.

Coaches, please come up to the platform.

Team Seoul will draw first.

-Are you nervous? -Please draw.

I'm not nervous.

A shooter can keep cool even in situations like this.

He drew number four.

-I'm nervous. -You all must be nervous.

-So what? -We'll keep going.

-Coach of Gangwon-do. -You…

calm my nerves.

Gangwon-do picked 16.

Next, we'll draw for the high school division.

MUJIN HIGH VS HANYANG HIGH

COACH JU 1ST ROUND HANYANG VS MUJIN

Mujin.

-Mujin is easy. -It's a piece of cake.

They were eliminated in the preliminaries. We've got this.

-It'll be easy. -What about Daesang?

Hold on.

Daesang is here.

If they advance on and on…

-We'd meet them in the finals. -You're right.

Let's go to the finals. Wasn't it our goal to win the Nationals?

-Yes. -Right, Captain?

Wait. What's with you?

Are you chickening out?

What? I'm not scared.

-Should we do special training? -What? Did Yeong-gwang say that?

-Geez. -I'm touched.

Come on.

-Let's do special training. -All right!

Let's go.

-Let's squat 2 million times. -Go!

Goodness.

I started eating first because I was hungry.

Please sit.

Thank you for contacting me.

-You said you had something for me? -Right.

I was going to wait for you to eat first.

Here it is.

Coach Ju is seeing a neurologist.

As you can see here.

PRESCRIPTION: ANADROL

How did the Rugby Team suddenly get better?

Are you suggesting that Ga-ram made the players take illegal substances?

That's what I want to find out.

Please give me permission to gather news on campus.

If you help me this one time,

I can clear out the principal's office in no time.

Here you go.

Yes!

Listen up!

This is our last feast before the Nationals.

From tomorrow until the Nationals are over,

you'll follow a strict diet, so be ready.

Okay!

Coach, we have to eat well to play well. Diet isn't really--

-Hey. -Just eat.

Just shut it and dig in!

As for Mujin High, let's…

Let's destroy them like this!

Just Mujin High?

We'll devour Daesang High too.

If you win the Nationals,

I'll give you free chicken for life!

-You promise? -I'll have to ask Seung-hui first.

-Just eat up. -Geez.

Ung, when you eat chicken,

you have to hold it tightly like this to get the full experience.

-Why are you giving it to me? -So that you can excel.

-Have it. -Eat it.

Look at you go!

Why aren't you eating, Seong-jun? Are you unwell?

No, it's…

I'm a little nervous with the match coming up.

-Seriously? -Hurry and eat up.

He's cute.

-He can be so adorable. -I know, right?

Where's Seong-jun?

He's having a major issue with his stomach,

so he said it will take some time to get it under control.

That's what he said,

-but he fixed it. -Sorry.

How about I feel your stomach to see if everything's okay?

Let's begin. There's no time for jokes.

-You're the one who's late. -Hey.

Why don't we chant?

-Okay. -Let's go!

Let's go!

Hanyang!

Captain.

Hey, you have to run faster.

Good job.

Captain.

Hey.

-Stop it. -What?

Stop whatever you're doing.

-Ju-yang. -Call it.

-You were offside. -Okay.

Seon-ho.

-I know. Get closer. -Captain.

-Move. -Darn it!

Move.

-Hey. -Captain.

-What's wrong? -Hey, Seong-jun.

Why? What's going on?

-Hurry, Coach. -Why?

What's wrong, Seong-jun?

-Did he dislocate his shoulder? -Wait. Stay still.

Hey.

What is that?

It's highly likely that it's a rotator cuff tear.

We'll need an MRI and a CT scan to confirm the details.

He'll stay here in the hospital. Please arrange his checkup.

-Okay. -When prescribing his medicine,

please exclude steroid substances. He's an athlete.

I don't need to be hospitalized, Coach.

Is there anything else we should know?

Watch out for sudden movements or impacts.

I'm really fine. I can train, Coach.

The exam results will tell us whether you're okay or not.

Thank you.

I mean, it's a minor injury.

As a rugby player, this is nothing. You know that, don't you?

Coach--

Seong-jun, forget about the Nationals. Are you trying to end your career?

Stay in the hospital until the results are in.

That's final.

WARD 73, ROOM 510

OS / YOON

SEONG-JUN'S MOTHER

The number you have dialed…

He's not picking up.

It's all my fault.

Stop crying.

Coach.

How's Seong-jun?

-He's in the hospital. -Is it that bad?

We're waiting for an in-depth test.

It wasn't your fault, Ju-yang.

He had a bad shoulder before that.

We'll talk again when we get the test results.

-Go to your rooms. -Okay.

Good night.

He'll be fine.

HANYANG PHYSICAL EDUCATION HIGH SCHOOL

The Shooting Team will hold an in-school tryout for the Nationals.

Do you have the list of players for it?

It's almost finalized.

But we aren't sure about U-jin.

She's seeing a doctor to check her condition.

Next, the Rugby Team. Anything worth reporting?

Yes.

Seong-jun, a third-year student, injured his shoulder.

Is it severe?

It was diagnosed as a rotator cuff tear.

He doesn't have to get surgery, but he can't train either.

I'll keep you updated on his recovery.

Lastly, a reporter will be gathering news materials on campus

for the Nationals, so I ask for your cooperation.

News coverage is good. I should ask them to cover fencing.

The archery lane welcomes them with open arms.

I like that they're covering us.

But before any article is released, make sure it goes through us first.

Okay. Thank you.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

TEACHERS' ROOM

-Good luck. -Okay.

SEONG-JUN'S MOTHER

I'd like to do the counseling without Seong-jun tomorrow.

I have something to tell you.

U-JIN

Oh, man.

-Hello? -Room number?

-What's your room number? -Right.

It's…

It's Room 510.

What was that?

Darn it.

Why is she coming so suddenly?

Geez.

Ouch. My shoulder.

Where is it?

It's hot! Geez.

Socks. I was wearing my socks. Dang it!

This is driving me nuts.

-When did you get here? -Bend over.

Give it to me.

It isn't dry yet.

Did you come to see me?

-I came to get my ear checked. -Your ear?

Why? What's wrong with your ear?

I knew it. There's a scar. Did you examine it properly?

-I did. -Okay.

I have trouble with my balance.

-Let me see your ear. -What for?

I'm just worried about you.

-Stop worrying about others. -You're not just anyone.

-Let's go outside. -To where?

I haven't eaten yet because of my appointment.

To eat.

-Hurry up. -Okay.

-Are you all right? -Yes. Sorry.

Sit over there. I'll order.

-For me… -Steak sandwich, please.

Served on Parmesan oregano bread with ranch.

-And no olives, please. -Okay.

You remember my usual?

Please make two of them.

-Okay. -Thank you.

Give it to me.

Does Ung know about your ear?

Did you tell him?

He found out. He said he'd keep it a secret.

Right. A secret.

I have no other intention,

and I'm not asking out of jealousy or suspicion.

But can I ask you something?

Is there…

something going on between you and Ung--

Look at you talking nonsense, you must be fine.

Right? That's nonsense.

I…

I'm fine.

It'll be all right.

The rehab.

We get injured all the time.

U-jin.

Look at that scar on your neck. There.

-You need to get your ear treated quickly. -Just eat.

Hey.

I wasn't done chewing yet. You can't just feed me like that.

Darn it.

Who are you?

RUGBY TEAM'S ROOM

Mr. Ju, how do you feel?

Are you going to keep playing?

It's been a while, Mr. Ju.

Right. It's Coach Ju now, isn't it?

Hold on.

You remember me, don't you?

I wrote an exclusive article on your doping scandal.

How could I forget?

How's it going these days?

I heard the rugby captain got injured.

Isn't he Yoon Seok-jun's twin brother?

How's his injury going?

I'm sorry. It shouldn't be disclosed.

Right? That's going to be a problem when he applies to college.

Stop right there.

Don't mess with my boys.

If you write an article rashly and affect Seong-jun in any way,

you'll regret it.

HANYANG RUGBY

Shouldn't you be resting?

No. It's fine.

Take the day off at least. You just got discharged today.

Haven't you been injured?

-Captain, still. -Stop it and get ready already.

-What if it gets worse? -What are you doing?

-Hello. -Coach.

It's gym day, isn't it?

-Yes. -Yes.

-Get ready. -Okay.

-Yes. -Okay.

Coach, I feel fine. I don't even need this anymore.

Seong-jun won't be training today.

As long as I don't move my right shoulder, it'll be fine.

Move along if you're ready.

-Okay. -Yes.

-Okay. -Okay.

Go on.

-Yes. -Let's go, Ung.

I'll warm up next to them, then.

Yoon Seong-jun!

Focus only on your recovery.

Think about nothing else.

You hear me?

Answer me!

Yes.

YOON SEOK-JUN

COUNSELING OFFICE

Hello, Coach.

-I'm Seong-jun's mom. -Hello.

I'm Ju Ga-ram, the Rugby Team's coach.

Please come in.

RIGHT SHOULDER ROTATOR CUFF TEAR

He tore his rotator cuff.

We plan to undergo rehab rather than have surgery.

The tear is less than an inch long.

I'll help him recover.

He's still young, he'll be better in no time.

-It won't affect his career that much. -Coach.

I'm here to talk about something else.

I want to take Seong-jun to Spain.

Spain.

This was in Spanish.

To study abroad?

I mean, there is a rugby league in Spain,

but he doesn't have to go overseas to play rugby.

Please persuade him to quit rugby.

Pardon?

Listen, Coach.

I want him to take a path with a secure future.

Has he gotten any offers from colleges or pro teams?

No, not yet.

Honestly, now that he's injured,

what future can he realistically expect?

Working with Seok-jun after studying to be an agent will be better for--

Seong-jun.

I'm going to keep playing rugby.

We still have the Nationals.

If I win, I can get offers from colleges or pro teams.

-How can you play with that shoulder? -Stop making excuses.

Does my shoulder even matter to you?

You just need Seok-jun's sidekick.

I made it clear that I want to play rugby.

Did you even listen to me?

You've never even come to see me play.

You've never supported me since I started playing.

How can you talk about my future now?

I'm fine on my own, so please,

go and take care of that wonder child, Seok-jun.

I know you're upset, Seong-jun.

I'm sorry.

But leaving you here isn't easy for me. I care about you.

I just want to provide you with an easier and safer path.

That's an easier path for you.

I'm sorry,

but our afternoon training is about to begin.

I know how you feel,

but please try to think realistically. Okay?

I assume you understood what I want, Coach.

I'll leave things to you now.

Seong-jun.

Let me practice.

I'll be careful.

I'll find a way somehow.

-No. -Coach.

If you damage your shoulder any further,

you might never be able to play again.

I just need to play at the Nationals.

My whole life depends on it. You saw how my mom was.

I'll do whatever it takes to play.

Please, Coach.

Seong-jun, think about the future.

Are you going to end your career at the Nationals' first round?

If I can't play the first round, there won't be a second.

This is my last chance.

It's just a minor injury.

I'll play at the Nationals,

-and then get surgery-- -Seong-jun.

What am I supposed to do? This is my last chance.

That's exactly why I'm doing this. So that this won't be your last chance.

Listen to me.

I won't let you train until your shoulder recovers.

All I have to do is recover?

Yoon Seong-jun.

Seong-jun. Hey.

ROTATOR CUFF TEAR

We might not be able to play at the Nationals.

It's not something that can heal in three weeks.

We don't have any substitutes for Seong-jun.

Does Coach have a plan?

I don't know.

I wanted to play one good final game.

What if we don't get any new players next year?

Who's going to apply to a team that couldn't even be in the Nationals?

I put everything at stake for the Nationals.

Will ox knee soup help?

Hey! You might hurt your hand.

Don't vandalize school property.

Hey!

Why aren't you wearing gloves?

You're a shooter, hand it over.

Thinking about U-jin's rehab made me feel impatient.

Is she getting better?

She's doing her best.

What's going on?

You almost quit shooting during high school

because of your family.

I did.

How did you get through it?

The ones you wanted the most support from were against it.

I got through it because of Ju Ga-ram.

What?

When no one, including Mom and Dad, supported me,

you were on my side. That was how I got through it.

That was it?

What do you mean?

The support of just one person…

means more than you'd think.

Thank you for having my back then.

I still have your back.

All done.

Yes. Focus.

That's it.

Geez.

Me too.

What do you mean?

I still have your back.

I'm rooting for you.

Thank you and sorry.

Not that.

-Should I kiss you? -Geez.

Wrong. Try again.

I love you.

There you go.

-Search everywhere. -Okay.

-What are you doing? -Yes?

-Find it. -Okay.

Where did he hide it?

What are you doing right now?

You can't do this based on an article that has no proof.

Shouldn't the school protect its students first?

I don't know.

Is there any clearer proof than this?

YOON SEONG-JUN BUYING ILLEGAL SUBSTANCES

I found it.

The real proof.

They're anabolic steroids. They were in Seong-jun's drawers.

How did this happen?

Did he do this alone? Or did you make him, Coach Ju?

No, that's not--

-We need to talk. -What?

-No, stop. -Ga-ram.

-Let me talk to him. -Talk about what?

Rugby Team, block them.

What do you need to talk--

-Ga-ram. -What are you doing?

-What do you think you're doing? -Let go of me.

You punks. Darn it.

Get out of the way.

-Ga-ram. -Move.

-Ga-ram. -Where are the keys? Open it.

What, are you using force against us?

Did you take them?

Did you?

No.

If you lie now, there's no turning back.

Did you really not take them?

I really didn't take them.

Okay.

It's all right.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

What are you trying to pull?

ANADROL

That's my medicine.

-Coach Ju. -Ga-ram.

Hey.

What is that?

Coach.

It's okay.

It really is mine.

I have…

I have been diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis.

EPILOGUE

Ma'am.

I'm sorry. I don't understand what you want.

So I can't persuade Seong-jun.

This is a recoverable injury.

He still has a chance to get into college.

He wants to play rugby.

I have no intention of standing in the way of his will.

You know better than anyone that will alone isn't enough.

That might be true.

But…

Seong-jun gets to decide when to retire.

It can be when he gets injured or when he wants to do something else.

It's not for others to decide,

even if they are his own parents.

He might not succeed as a rugby player, ever.

But the experience of trying his best for the things he loves

will last forever.

That experience will help Seong-jun grow in the future.

I won't take away his chance simply out of fear of failure.

I don't want him to experience failure.

I'll make sure that he doesn't fail.

Please come and watch him play, even just once.

I bet he'll be thrilled.

THE WINNING TRY

Did the team have no idea?

They didn't. Leave the boys alone.

Shouldn't we get a resignation letter?

It's a clear cause for Ms. Kang's dismissal.

Think carefully about whose pills they are

while I'm turning a blind eye.

Coach will come, won't he?

-The school will change the coach. -Have you gone nuts?

-Are you trying to ruin the team? -Stop!

How could you say that?
