Coach.

I want to quit.

My father told me to do my best last time.

But I think I get
what he meant by that now.

I've reached my limit,

and that's what my father wants.

Woo-chan.

There are no parents who don't
want their children to do what they like.

They all just have different ways
of expressing themselves, you know.

Do you know why I quit sports back then?

Pardon?

I'm just a coach here now,
but I used to be really good.

You'd better not mock me.

I won championships

and even was a National Athlete.

Of course, I had to serve in the army
as I didn't win any medals.

Then when did you get injured?

What?
I'd never gotten injured from playing.

What? Then why did you quit?

Because I wasn't good. That's all.

After I got discharged,
my strength and posture weren't as good.

So nobody gave me an opportunity.

No team wanted me to join them.

I see.

But you know what?

You might not be perfect,
but you have opportunities.

If you truly love badminton,
you should take on the challenge.

Once you grow older
and graduate from school,

things get really tough.
Tougher than you think.

I get it, Coach.

I'll try my best for this competition.

Okay, Woo-chan. Thanks.

Let's do our best.

But Coach. You're wrong.

There are parents who don't want

their kids to do what they want.

RACKET BOYS

She is it, she's the real deal

She's the real deal

The real deal showed up now

What's going on at this hour?

Why are you all out here?

Goodness. What is it this time?

Your eyes are shooting laser beams.

MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS

EPISODE 8

Net play is the only way, right?

Yes. If I were to pick one.

Even so. He won't be a match to Yoon-dam.

To be honest, I don't think I can do it.

I lost to him every single time.

Why are you guys so serious?

In-sol, don't you think we can win this?

If we follow the standard order,
winning might be difficult.

Then, the order will be important.
Is there any good strategy?

Well, it's not like
we don't have any strategy to play.

Right. I did hear that Seung-heon wants
to avoid going up against Hae-kang

whether it's doubles or singles.

It's the opposite, then.
We must make sure to match them up.

And they should go last.

Then, we'll have
a higher chance of winning.

And we will be playing in Court One.

That court gets a lot of wind
from the air conditioner.

What do you mean?
They only assigned our practice court.

Busan practices in Court One.

With Seung-heon's connections,
they'll play the game in the same court.

Die!

Hae-kang is the best.
He's so enthusiastic about badminton…

Die. Die now.

Come on.

This is just my opinion.

Never mind. Let's ask our coach.

I said I'm good.

Well, first of all,

Woo-chan, your defense is perfect.

Right. The whole country knows
about your defense.

But when you have to play offense,

it looks like you think about defense
even before your smash shot.

Look.

Look at the angle. It's pretty wide.

You're right. I didn't know about this.

Watch the video.

My gosh. You're right.
The angle is too wide.

Right. You don't miss anything.

-In-sol, did you take this video?
-Yes.

-If you have more videos, send them to me.
-Sure.

I'll send your videos from the spring
and sweet potato competitions.

By the way, do you think Hae-kang is okay?
Look at him.

Gosh. Who's jumping on the rooftop
so early in the morning?

Se-yoon, let's eat.

Se-yoon. Let's eat!

Sir, that's our van!

Goodness, sir. What are you doing
in front of our van?

Seriously. Who are you…

Sir… I mean…

Dad?

Damn it. Those bastards from the city.

My gosh. Hello.

Why are you guys so busy?

It was you, right?

Gosh. "Mind your own business."
I wonder who did that.

Gosh. What a jerk!

I know you did it! Bastard!

It wasn't me.

You can't just yell at me
without any evidence.

Don't waste your energy on me.
Just go and clean up.

That suits you much better.

Goodness. That looks great.
Look at that X mark.

Hey, get out of the car.
Get off and pick this up!

Forget it.

Let it go. Just let it go.

How could you say nothing?

Let's just ignore them.

I should have,
but that woman is just so aggressive.

Should I scare her a bit?

She'll act all tough now,
but it'll scare her.

Hey, let's be gentlemen about this.

What?

What?

What on earth?

Goodness. Is that a fire?

-Goodness.
-Oh, no!

-Goodness.
-Damn it.

-What's going on?
-Oh, my.

What's happening?

This is driving me crazy.

My goodness. I won't let this slide.

-Who are you calling?
-The police.

What? You saw what happened here.

They vandalized the mural
and threw out trash here, too.

-Calm down.
-You fool.

It will only ruin our town's reputation.

And just like they said,
we don't have evidence that they did it.

-Come on!
-Okay. Fine.

Goodness. Thank you for helping out.

I'll talk to the police. Don't worry.
You should all go back home.

All right. Let's go back.

Have some coffee.

-I'm good. You guys should drink some.
-Okay.

Come in.

Gosh. Hyeon-jong. What brings you here?

Hello.

I just wanted to say hello.

Hyeon-jong, are you going to a wedding?

Or a funeral?

Right. What's up
with the suit and the shoes?

It's been a while
since I said hello to you.

If you know that,
how could you buy canned coffee?

My gosh.
I didn't know that's still around.

Even the kids don't drink
canned coffee nowadays.

-We drink real coffee like this.
-I see. Okay. Sorry.

That's enough. I doubt
that you really came here to say hello.

What is it?

Well…

You know, people with no conscience

would only ask for his support
with this coffee, right?

No. I just wanted to say hello.
That's all.

64TH NATIONAL SUMMER COMPETITION

It's a long way back to the countryside.
Go start the car.

Since when did Busan
become a metropolitan?

I don't need to hear that
from country bumpkins.

None of you are even
on the national youth team.

What an asshole. Looks like
your daddy's connection got you this far.

Do you want me to crush you to a pulp?

All right. Country kids.

Both of you, be quiet.
You're upsetting this Seoulite.

-What?
-What?

Don't go crying after you lose, Hae-kang.

Hey, Curly Hair. Shut it.

I'll go first for the team match.
You can do the same. All good, right?

-What?
-What?

If you're scared, go and fix your order.
You dummy.

Seung-heon, let's go.

We should get ready.

They've got no skills or connections.
All they do is talk.

My gosh. He's so chatty.

You should go if that's all.

Okay.

Actually,

I came here to ask you for your support.

My boys worked really hard.

Gosh. Don't you know the era we live in?

I can't show any favoritism.

I know that there's bad blood
between you and me

and Haenam Seo Middle School isn't
as accomplished as before.

I'm not asking you to show favoritism.

But I'm asking you to evaluate
my players as they are.

There's a boy named Yoon-dam.
He performed well for his singles.

but he's never been selected
for the national youth team.

You mean, Bang Yoon-dam.

Haenam is going up against Busan
in the first round.

The association director's son's school.

Then, I don't think he has any shot.

It has nothing to do
with who his father is.

But your school is the most likely team
to get eliminated first.

It just means your boys suck that bad.

Have a good day.

Who drinks canned coffee these days?
Just throw it out.

Hey, he can hear you.

That's the point.

Hey, check the expiration date. Gosh.

Those two must go up against each other.

It'd be great if they both play last.

Usually, he always plays last because

Seung-heon is an attention-seeker.

But our captain is one, too.

My goodness. Have you ever seen
Yoon-dam hurting other people?

But that jerk, Seung-heon, tramples
on other people to shine.

I heard he threw a fit at the seniors
to be the final player last year.

But the coach couldn't say anything
because of the association director.

Then, someone like him would rather die
than get humiliated

after losing to the airhead.

But where is Woo-chan?

He's been busy watching the videos
and I don't see him now.

Hey.

-Yong-tae, go get our coach.
-Okay.

Captain, what happened?

He slipped. I think he sprained his ankle.

Get on my back first.

One, two, three.

Are you okay?

How is it?

What do you think? It hurts.

Do you think you can move?

It's getting better.

I'll be okay if I rest a bit.

Hey, guys. Can you go and get the nurse?

-Okay.
-Okay.

Let's check your ankle first.
Don't put pressure on it.

Haenam Jeil M.S. and Seoul Jeil M.S.
of the Girls Division.

Report to Court Two
for the first singles match.

Good job yesterday, Se-yoon.

There you go again, Lee Yu-ri. Be quiet.

Yeong-ja, can't I even say hello to her?

I'm okay.

You, too.

Okay. What a coincidence.
You're playing first again.

Right. I hope we can have
a good game again today.

Gosh. That's what we should be asking.

Let's go.

That wench.

Se-yoon, don't let it get to you.
Let's go.

Se-yoon, can I have
an interview with you after…

No. I will not ask you
for an interview. Never.

-Gosh.
-Let's go, Se-yoon.

Okay.

Se-yoon.

Gosh. How can I handle Yoon Hae-kang?

Don't worry, Coach.

Hae-kang hurt his ankle.
He'll probably play last.

-He won't play the doubles match.
-Are you sure?

Yes. I don't need to avoid him now.

Shouldn't I go up against him?

Then, let's nip them in the bud.

No.

I'll go up against Hae-kang
in the final match.

Shouldn't I crush him

in front of everyone,
so he never gets up again?

LEE SEUNG-HEON, YOON HAE-KANG

They are taking advantage
of Hae-kang's injury.

They were so eager to avoid you before.

I wonder if we can go all the way
to the final match.

-We need to win at least two matches.
-Be quiet, everyone.

Your coach and I gave the order
a lot of thought.

And you guys can just focus
on giving it your all.

Win together. Lose together. Got it?

-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.

Was there a problem with the court?
Why are you out already?

No way.

Good job.

She's not playing around.

Haenam Seo M.S. and Busan Jeil M.S.
of the Boys Division.

Report to Court One
for the first singles match.

Yoon-dam.

Yes, Coach.

Just remember this.

Relax when you swing,
and you set the pace.

Yes. I got it.

You know that the guys from Busan
are not easy, right?

You must do your best.

Coach, I've never played half-heartedly.

I always gave it my all.

Let's go.

That's it!

Match won by Bang Yoon-dam
of Haenam Seo Middle School.

By the way, where's Woo-chan?
He's up next.

Actually, he's been gone today.

Hey, let's go and find him.

What? There he is.

Woo-chan, where have you…

Woo-chan, let's go down.
It's our doubles match.

Did something happen to Woo-chan?

Woo-chan figured out what his weakness is.

We reviewed his match videos,

and he swings too wide because
he worries too much about defense.

Woo-chan might seem so gentle,
but you know he's got grit.

Now that he figured out his weakness,
he probably found a solution.

Is that all?

Yes. Nothing happened other than that.

Na Woo-chan. Jeong In-sol.

-Go for it!
-Go for it!

-Let's go, Haenam Seo Middle School!
-You can do it. Let's go!

-Let's destroy them!
-Go crush them.

-Let's go.
-Great.

Go for it!

-Yes!
-Nice.

-Nice!
-Great. Let's keep it going.

Let's go.

-It's killing me.
-14-11

Woo-chan is on fire today.

Gosh. He must've found his solution.

Gosh. He's going at it, too.
He's never been better.

-You can do it!
-Let's go!

6-8.

-What?
-What happened?

-Oh, no. It looks like he's hurt.
-What is it?

Woo-chan, are you okay?

-I'm okay. I can keep playing.
-Let me see.

Let's go to the hospital.
You have more matches tomorrow, too.

Coach, I really want to show
how much I can play.

Please let me play.

Hey, Woo-chan.

Let me see.

Please…

Haenam Seo Middle School will withdraw
from the first doubles match.

Okay.

Woo-chan.

Woo-chan. Hey, Na Woo-chan.

-Let's go.
-Okay.

DOUBLES 1, HAENAM SEO M.S.
NA WOO-CHAN AND JEONG IN-SOL LOSE

HAENAM SEO M.S., 1
BUSAN JEIL M.S., 2

Woo-chan.

Are you okay?

Woo-chan, you were so good.
You crushed it.

Hey, is your shoulder okay?

In-sol, how was Woo-chan?

He was a bit different.

He seemed different to us, too.

So he was able to find
his solution, right?

I'm not sure about that.

But he gave his all to this match

as if it was his last game.

And it seemed like
he had to prove something.

Father.

Hey.

I had a seminar nearby.

I've never been to
a badminton stadium before.

That was interesting.

My gosh. You're right.
The angle is too wide.

Right. You don't miss anything.

Hey, he sucks! Just keep going at it!

He's just a dummy.

What? A dummy?

-Say that again.
-Who are you?

Me? I'm that dummy's father! You bastard.

You two! Stop fighting!

Where did you serve in the army?
Come here.

My goodness. What are you doing?

Did you watch my game?

Yes. I saw a part of it.

I know nothing about badminton.

But I get why

you love badminton so much

and why you had to stay here.

Na Woo-chan.

-Go for it!
-Let's go!

Woo-chan, don't get nervous.
Just focus on one thing!

Don't worry about the rest! We got you!

Just one. Please.

-Yes!
-Nice.

-Nice!
-Nice!

Well done. Yes!

I had nothing to worry about.

Go back inside.

Woo-chan.

Give your best

to your passion.

Okay.

Dad.

-Yes!
-Yes!

-Yes!
-Yes!

-Yes!
-Yes!

Match won by Bang Yoon-dam

DOUBLES 2, HAENAM SEO M.S.
BANG YOON-DAM AND LEE YONG-TAE WIN

21-16.

HAENAM SEO M.S., 2
BUSAN JEIL M.S., 2

All right.

Good job, boys. And thank you.

Okay.

Thanks to you, we have a chance.

But do you know what makes me happier?

Like I instructed you,
you relaxed your swing.

And you totally got over your jinx, too.

Coach, but Hae-kang hurt his ankle,
so I'm a bit worried.

Coach, I bet Seung-heon is waiting
to humiliate Hae-kang.

Let him handle the rest now.

Haenam Seo M.S. and Busan Jeil M.S.
of the Boys Division.

Report to Court One
for the final singles match.

I hate calling it
a good game after losing.

It's a way for the losers
to feel good about themselves.

-Losing won't get them anything.
-Shut up.

You gave me shit because
I had bandages around my hand, right?

Listen up.

Fooling my opponent is a strategy.

And using my father's influence
for my benefit is a skill, too.

Winning is everything.

Then, everything can be forgiven
including cheating.

Well, I'm thankful to have a dummy
like you who injures himself.

Six points.
That's the score you can make against me.

FINAL SINGLES MATCH BETWEEN
HAENAM SEO M.S. AND BUSAN JEIL M.S.

Yoon Hae-kang of Haenam Seo Middle School.

Lee Seung-heon
of Busan Jeil Middle School.

Hae-kang to serve.

Love-all, play.

One, love.

It's just getting started, you idiot.

We still did well.

We got this far.

Right. We have a team match tomorrow, too.

But I'm worried about Hae-kang's injury.

If his ankle wasn't injured,
he would have won.

Guys.

Pass me the chocolate sticks next to you.

What? Okay.

Here.

-Yes!
-Hae-kang!

-That was so cool.
-Yes!

Let's check your ankle first.
Don't put pressure on it.

Dad, listen to me carefully.

What? Are you okay?

I did twist my ankle a bit,
but I can walk and run just fine.

My gosh. Really?
What a relief. That's nice.

But why did you…

Dad, I know no one expects us to win.

But we'll win no matter what.

Especially against those
who looked down on us.

I will give them a taste
of their own medicine.

I'll play at the end.

Do you think Seung-heon will play last?

Gosh. He'll definitely play last.

Why? He's an attention-seeker.

How can we make it to the final match?

Why are you worried about that?
We have to believe in Bang and our team.

-What?
-I'm sure they'll win.

Well, I am a bit worried though.

-Yes!
-Yes!

-Yes!
-Yes!

-Hae-kang!
-You did it!

Hae-kang!

-Good job!
-You're on fire!

Match won by Yoon Hae-kang
of Haenam Seo Middle School.

21-6.

SINGLES FINAL, HAENAM SEO M.S.
YOON HAE-KANG WINS

HAENAM SEO M.S., 3
BUSAN JEIL M.S., 2

The coaches wanted you to have this.

Gosh. More coffee?
Tell them to stop buying coffee for me.

Everyone knows that you're
the real power behind the team.

This is the most expensive one.

-Please have this.
-I'm good. You should drink it.

Hey, did you watch the games
at Court Five earlier?

Gosh. They were making appeals furiously.

These days, coaches and players think
they know everything.

We've been too lenient on them.

-We'd be dead if we pulled that stunt.
-Exactly.

Don't you agree?

Well, things have gotten
more casual nowadays.

What? You still have this.

Hey, you should throw that out already.

Who's going to drink this shitty coffee?

Did Hae-kang really
come up with this plan?

I know, right? I thought I was watching
a movie toward the end.

I told you to just trust me.

It's me, the one and only Yoon Hae-kang.

-You're the man.
-You're the man.

At this rate, we might win
all of the preliminary rounds.

But I'm worried about Woo-chan's shoulder.
The injury seemed serious.

He's been in there for some time now.
What's taking him so long?

Yong-tae, you're going last, right?
You can go in now.

Are you okay, In-sol?

I'm okay.

I just took some scans and had
some physical therapy. That's it.

It's nice that the head coach pulled
some strings for us to get some massages.

I hope Woo-chan is okay.

Sir, everything has been cleaned up.

Really? Good work. I'll be out.

-Okay. Thank you.
-Hey.

-Is that how you do your bow?
-Pardon?

Hey, throw that out on your way out.

I'm sorry.

Kids these days don't know
how to behave properly.

Don't you agree?

Right. They have no idea.

They are totally out of line.

We should set a date
and give all of them--

I'm talking about you, you assholes!

Don't blame the younger generation.
You'd better behave.

-Isn't Hyeon-jong your senior?
-Yes, sir.

How dare you? You'd better respect him!

-I'm sorry.
-If I could, I would just…

This coffee? It's bitter!

This coffee is so freaking bitter.

I should just…

COFFEE

Nothing is going my way.

And has it ever?

Hello.

You've got neither pride nor money.

It's nice and sweet.

Coffee these days is way too bitter.

How do you know my taste?

I ran your coffee errands for a decade.

Right. Yes, you did.

Ki-won, Yoon-dam is a really good player.

He couldn't show how good he is
because he was disqualified.

And he's got potential, too.

Yoon-dam will be chosen
for the national youth team this year.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

Don't get the wrong idea.

It has nothing to do with whether or not
you come to say hello or bring me coffee.

The association and the competitions
have changed.

Only rules
and their skills will matter now.

Then, how come
you never picked him before?

You know nothing.

He's a great player. But when he gets
nervous, his swing gets stiff.

He couldn't fix that for years,
but he fixed it this year.

That's the only reason.

Ki-won.

Gosh. Why are you looking at me like that?
You're creeping me out.

How did he fix that though?

I doubt that he was dumb enough

to put some cardboards on his arm
like we used to.

Gosh. That kid.

Let me ask you one thing.

Why didn't you let me win back then?

With one more win, I would've been able to
compete in the Asian Games.

That's what you told me to do.

You told me to follow the rules
whatever it was.

Hey, that's what people just say.

Maybe, that's why
you're the head coach now.

If you know that, shut it.
Had I won that game,

I would've been the chairman. You punk.

Gosh.

TREATMENT ROOM

Are you all right?
What did the doctor say?

Coach, I'm sorry.

Why?

I left without saying anything
after the game like that.

Gosh. Don't worry about that.
Are you all right?

Yes. It's not serious.

It's a muscle spasm.
It'll recover in a week.

Gosh. Really?

I'm happy as long as you're okay.

We can continue with the rest of the team.

Don't worry. Okay?

Yes, coach. Thank you.

All right. Okay. Go to the boys.

He kept playing with this kind of injury?

Yes. He hurt his shoulder during the game.
I'm sorry.

You don't have to apologize to me.

Did you talk to him?

Yes. He said it'd heal in a week.

I'll let Woo-chan rest up.

We can complete our preliminary round
with the rest of the team.

Who said you could do that?

See if you can still say that.

Look at this. He sprained his ankle.
There's an inflamed ligament in the ankle.

I think you mixed up the X-ray scans.

Woo-chan hurt his shoulder, not his ankle.

You must be tired.
You made a silly mistake.

What? Isn't Yoon Hae-kang your player?

All right. Do you see that the tissue
in the back of his ankle is damaged?

Put a cast on his ankle.

And make sure he doesn't play
for at least two weeks.

Given the injury,
running wouldn't have been possible.

Just walking would've been hard.

The reality of this competition being over
is finally sinking in.

Exactly. The competition is one thing.
But what about Hae-kang?

But he'll recover in a few weeks
with a cast on.

It's not just that.
He took revenge on Yellow Hair

and we won as a team.

He's probably going to
play baseball again.

He was happy to see his coach, too.

Should we ask him
to keep playing badminton?

The airhead doesn't even listen to
his dad. He wouldn't listen to us.

Let's be honest.
Isn't that really irresponsible of him?

We came this far.
He can't just leave us like this.

-Yong-tae.
-You know what I said is true.

That's making me furious now.

-Be careful.
-Gosh. Don't overreact.

Be careful, you brat. Gosh.

There they are.

All right.

If it hurt that much,
you should have told us.

Hey, I didn't know.

If it hurt, I would've told you.
Why wouldn't I?

But, why do you guys look so serious?

No. It's nothing. We're all right.

I know how you feel.

You won the match
and were about to pass the preliminaries.

It's breaking our hearts
that we had to withdraw from the match.

But there will be more chances.
Don't be disappointed.

Coach, that's not it.

Okay. We'll focus on getting ready
for the next competition.

Okay. Good job, everyone. Let's go.

-Let's go. Be careful.
-Okay.

Gosh. Stop it. He's overreacting.

-Hey, your ace is fine. Don't worry.
-Be careful.

-Okay.
-Let's go.

All right. Walk carefully.

What's that now?

-Gosh. Come on.
-What is it?

What should we do?

You're being ridiculous. This is enough.

As if!

You almost burned down the entire town.
How can you say that?

You'd better take this with you.

-You're way out of line, lady.
-Gosh.

Do you have evidence?
Do you have proof that we threw it out?

Then, who else besides you jerks?

What the…

Take the trash

and fix the mural
before we report you to the police.

Report us.
It's not like you have evidence.

What will you say to them? What?

Will this be enough
for your darned evidence?

Guys, do you want to listen to BTS songs?

Hey, winning the team match
is a great feat.

They won second place last year.

-Okay.
-Okay.

What kind of song do you want?

Coach, we're good with any songs.

Okay. Then, let's do better
at the next competition, boys.

Hey, Yong-tae.
I've never seen you so quiet.

My gosh, Hae-kang. There are times
when I don't want to talk.

What's up with you?

And what's up with you guys, too?

We're just tired. That's all.

CAUTION, FOREST FIRES
DO NOT ENTER MOUNTAIN

I asked you if this would be
enough evidence for you.

Yes. We have evidence right here.

We're going to report you
for arson and vandalism, too.

-Ma'am!
-Gosh.

You have a nice cell phone.

Yes. Are you jealous?

Call the police now. How much is the fine?
Is it 50,000 won?

I just paid the fine.

Hey. Don't you think you're out of line?

-Honey.
-Why is everyone here so hostile?

Fine. You should compensate for it.

You ought to compensate us
for starting a fire

and vandalizing the mural.
Go ahead and compensate us.

Ma'am! She said I vandalized the mural

and started a fire.

Did you record that, too?
Do you have evidence for that?

I don't think she has evidence for that.

Are we good here? Move.

Lady, move out of my way!

Stop that. You're so vulgar!

Hey, city people. That's enough.
You should just go.

I was going to,

but she's accusing me
without any evidence.

I ought to report this to the police
which seems to be

that ugly woman's favorite thing to do.

I'll sue you for false accusations
and defamation.

And eat sweet potatoes.
They'll make you look pretty.

I'm the village chief here.

Can you just go when I ask nicely?

I can't.

This is the cigarette you just smoked.

One of these was found
on the ground at the wall

and the other one was found
at the field where the fire started.

So your parents moved
to a rural area to farm?

And the sticker on your car tells me
you have a kid.

What does that have to do with this now?

Evidence is important.

But just think about it.

This could happen to your parents
in the rural area and your kids.

It could happen to your family.

Do you understand that?

-Gosh. That chief was the nut job.
-Right.

Let's go. They are nasty.

Watch your six, Ms. Ugly.

That bastard. That awful jerk.

Hey, where are you going?
Where do you think you're going?

Get off! Damn it.

Hey.

Gosh. Goodness.

PITCHER
YANG HYEON-JONG

To be honest, I'm a huge fan
of Yang Hyeon-jong, too.

He's a great pitcher.

Both Yang Hyeon-jong and baseball
are pretty cool.

The annual salary and teams are
in a different league.

More than anything,
people go watch baseball.

What are you talking about?
We have people watching our games, too.

Our parents, coaches, and other players
don't count.

-They already know us.
-I agree.

In a way, it's obvious that Hae-kang

wants to play baseball.

Other sports get broadcast
and are very popular.

More importantly, Hae-kang likes baseball.

Right. He should play the sport
he likes the most.

Hey, what are you doing?

What? We should go to sleep now.

You're going home tomorrow for the weekend

and Monday is the school's foundation day.
So you'll be back on Tuesday.

-So what?
-Are you seriously asking me that?

Let's play games. Come on.

Yong-tae, you're coming, right? Let's go.

I want to go to sleep, too.
Turn off the light, please.

Yong-tae, for some reason,
you seem to be in a good mood.

Why wouldn't I be in a good mood?
We're having a barbecue party, too.

Hae-kang won't stay in the team.

We're celebrating our win
and saying goodbye to Hae-kang.

To be precise, we're celebrating
the girls' victory

and Se-yoon and Han-sol's
acceptance to the youth team.

Right. Congratulations, captain.

One of us got into the national team.

Let's not talk about that.
Our team is more troublesome.

Why are you so worried?

We've been doing well
without Hae-kang so far.

We'll be able to compete with In-sol.

But it was fun with Hae-kang.
We won for the first time as a team, too.

Gosh. It's moot to talk about someone
who'll leave.

We need to focus on our future.

Gosh. As someone who never liked
the airhead, you're better than me.

I never really liked him.
How can I ever like a traitor?

Hey, that's enough.

-I only spoke the truth.
-You little…

Both of you, stop.

Ending things on a good note
is important. Okay?

Don't make it obvious.
Let's just focus on the food.

-Hello.
-Hello.

You're here.

What are you all standing around for?

Yong-tae, go and get some lettuce
from the garden.

Okay.

Hey, what's going on?

Did you guys have a fight?

What's up with the mood?

No, we didn't.

Well, where is Hae-kang?

I see. He'll be out with the meat.

Hae-kang.

Hello. Nice to meet you.

I'm Yoon Hae-kang
of the national youth badminton team.

Hae-kang, stop overreacting
and grill the meat.

Stop.

Sorry, but can you please

call me Yoon Hae-kang
of the national youth badminton team.

Thanks.

-Right. There's one more player.
-What?

Another boy from your school
will be on the national youth team.

His name is Yoon Hae-kang.
The one who played last.

I definitely see some potential in him,
so I want to help him grow.

You should help him, too.

Come on. Not you, too.

Grill the meat now.

Okay. All right. Gosh.

Come here.

By the way, what's up with Yong-tae?

What's wrong with him?

He must have thought about something sad
while picking lettuce.

Hey, Yong-tae. Hurry up.
Or we'll eat everything here!

Don't finish everything.
Leave some of the meat for me.

And Hae-kang, don't leave.

No one should leave.

Yoon-dam, can you pass me the meat?

Hae-in.

Woo-chan, cut it small for her.

Give me the meat. Let's keep grilling it.

-Is it good? You're eating a lot.
-Let's grill it.

All right. Let's put more meat on it.

All right.

Whoever burps first after drinking
the Coke will wash the dishes.

-Deal.
-Deal.

What is it?

It's just a little something.

My gosh. Do we really have Wi-Fi now?

No way. It's super-fast.

-Thank you!
-Thank you!

We got it
so you can focus on your training.

Or I'll cut the wire.

-Yes, ma'am!
-Yes, ma'am!

All right. Since we just got Wi-Fi,

why don't we make a group chatroom? Deal?

My family is the best.

Family group chat?

They were eating pork
even before it got cooked.

They are growing boys.

And it was our first barbecue party.

But did you know?

Five of us in this house
have been or will be in the youth team.

The newbies always make a big deal.

And there are six of us.

-Who?
-Coach Ra Yeong-ja.

Forget about that. I didn't expect
Hae-kang to join the team.

I thought he would choose baseball.

Same here.

He did get into the national youth team.

Gosh, I didn't know he'd accept it.

Right. Did you call his baseball coach?

He even came to the stadium
to meet Hae-kang.

Right. I talked to him on the phone,
but they never met.

What? He came all the way down here,
but didn't even talk to Hae-kang?

He saw Hae-kang, though.
But he couldn't say hello to Hae-kang.

And there was no need to talk to him.

I think Hae-kang has a new goal now.

You know Park Chan, right?

Of course.
He's ranked number one in Korea.

His baseball coach told me

that he'd never seen Hae-kang
look so furious like that.

He told me that
Hae-kang was totally into badminton.

How interesting.

Hae-kang really liked baseball, too.

I'm sure he still likes it.

-What?
-He likes baseball.

He just likes badminton a bit more.
That's all.

Gosh. That was pretty insightful.

I bet the boys are playing games.

Gosh. They'll probably stay up all night.

Gosh, this is crazy.
Look how fast this is.

Say goodbye to the PC cafe now.

-Woo-chan, help me out here. Hurry.
-Okay.

-I'm almost there. Wait.
-Okay.

By the way, what a surprise, In-sol.

You're sleeping over today.

I'm thinking about going home
because of the smell.

But where's the airhead?

He's watching TV in the living room.

We don't have local TV stations anymore.
We got cable now.

He wasn't in the living room.

He probably went to the bathroom.

Right. If he's not in the living room,
he must be in the…

Hae-kang went there alone?

What?

What?

Gosh. Damn it.

Gosh. Did something go wrong again?

Have a cold drink.

Gosh. It's so good.
Did you make this yourself?

I bought it at the store.

Really? I see.

I was joking.
I made it myself for you boys.

Right?

But ma'am,

the boys might not come over often.

Really?

Did something happen?

Well…

They seem to sleep over
at their houses more often.

Well, what can I do about that?

I should use the rest of sikhye
as fertilizer for the field.

My gosh. Hae-in and I will
come over every day.

Right?

-Hey.
-Hello.

My gosh. Goodness.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Hello, there.

I've never seen you before.

You should come over often.

It's so nice to have you boys here.

Gosh.

My gosh. Ma'am, I'm kind of thirsty.
Can I have some cold sikhye?

Gosh. Are you a thief or a thug?

How did you know I made sikhye?

Come on. Bring us everything.

There will be more people today.

What do you mean?
Who else would come over here?

My gosh. What's going on?

Gosh. All right. Hi.

What are you doing here?

-Hello.
-Hello.

Sure. Gosh. Goodness.

Oh, my. I should get moving now.

Wait here for a bit. Okay?

My gosh. Oh, my. This is so nice.

Hey, do you all have a death wish?

How can you not tell us?

Exactly.

Hae-kang said I could only tell you
over his dead body.

Right. He said Wi-Fi would get slow.

We wanted to hang out with you.

Hae-kang, can we hang out
with them here now? Come on.

Say something.

How was your game with Yoon Hae-kang?

It was nothing special.

Gosh. That's all I'm getting?

You've been waiting to go up against him
for five years.

That's how you feel
after beating your childhood rival?

Rival?

No.

What? Then, he's not good enough
to be your rival?

Hae-kang has never been my rival.
He's been my goal.

And he still is.

When he's feeling 100 percent himself,

I'm going to beat him fair and square.

When will that be?

45TH NATIONAL JUNIOR SPORTS FESTIVAL

Well, perhaps
at the National Junior Sports Festival?

If he makes it to the final round.

But Hae-kang still hasn't recognized
who you are?

No.

Gosh. That's embarrassing.
Forget him about being my goal.

Yoon-dam, how come you're not posting
anything on your social media?

Bang, seriously?
You didn't upload anything?

It's none of your business.

Anyway, let's play a game.

EDIT PROFILE, BIO

POSTS, BBANGMINTON

BANG YOON-DAM
I'M THE BADMINTON CAPTAIN

What is it? Why are you smiling?

-Your face got red, too.
-Really? Is it obvious?

Yes.

No way! What?

What? What happened?

No. The thing is

someone just asked Se-yoon out.

Guess who.

Park Chan.

-No way.
-No way.

That's crazy.
Park Chan has feelings for you?

Hey, Han-sol. Don't jump to conclusions.

He just wants to talk.

Hey, that's the same thing.

I knew that Chan was interested in you.

He's so straightforward.

Se-yoon, what are you going to do?

Tell me. Will you go out with him?

PARK CHAN
SE-YOON, LET'S TALK NEXT TIME WE MEET

RACKET BOYS

Welcome to
the National Juniors Training Camp.

We just train them for a bit
and then get to eat meat, right?

-Can you guys get closer?
-He's annoying.

Let's have a town meeting.

Mr. Hong, I have a good idea.

Last on our agenda is mountain training.

Can we find our way back?

Didn't Park Chan want to talk to you?

Only one will have a different word.

Time limit is three minutes.

The coaches are making their rounds.

Is it just you two?
I heard more people laughing.

Is there anything you want to know?
