LIKE FLOWERS IN SAND
Hey, Du-sik.
It's four in the morning.
What are you doing here?
Did you watch the soccer game earlier?
Ahn Jung-hwan is so cool, isn't he?
To be honest, I thought we'd lose today.
But they did such an incredible job.
Maybe I should just quit ssireum and start playing soccer.
What do you think?
But seriously, what are you doing here at this hour?
What's the matter?
Can't sleep?
Too excited about tomorrow's picnic?
Do you want some anchovy gimbap?
My mom made a ton so we could share tomorrow.
Should I go bring some now?
Baek-du.
Promise me…
that you'll be a champion when you grow up.
What?
And when you become a champion,
don't forget to tell people about me.
Okay?
About what?
What should I tell them?
I don't know.
You can say whatever you want.
I just want to see
if you'll still remember me then.
What?
You're talking as if you won't be hanging with me then.
Du-sik.
What are you talking about?
Of course, I'll still be hanging with you. You're being silly now.
Right?
Go back to bed now.
Or you'll be too tired to play tomorrow.
All right. You should go to bed too.
Du-sik.
Mom said she's making tteokbokki for us tomorrow,
so you should come over after the picnic.
You're coming, right?
Sure.
Sounds good.
See you tomorrow.
Take care.
Kim Baek-du.
Du-sik.
Du-sik!
Du-sik, where are you going?
Du-sik, wait!
Where are you going?
Oh Du-sik!
Oh Du-sik! Hey!
Oh Du-sik!
Where are you going?
Oh Du-sik!
Where are you going?
EPISODE 7 NEW DAY, NEW INCIDENT
It's just…
It's not even a pleasant memory.
That's why I never brought it up.
Did something bad happen?
My dad…
My dad killed a person, apparently.
Twenty years ago,
my dad was this ssireum team's head coach.
And one of the wrestlers on the team died back then.
And people said
that my dad suggested to that wrestler
that they throw a match…
Throw a match?
But he refused and they ended up fighting. They said that was how it happened.
There was no evidence
and he was officially acquitted.
But people don't like a boring ending like that.
I don't know if they couldn't believe it or just didn't want to,
but nobody believed it.
So we left.
Because we couldn't live like that any longer.
Actually…
we were kicked out.
So why did you come back here?
We could've sent someone else.
- So why... - Choi Chil-seong was here back then.
What?
I think everything that happened here
was Choi Chil-seong's doing.
Du-sik, I'm competing in tomorrow's match.
I did good, right?
Are you proud of me?
Are you asleep?
Already?
Gosh, you really haven't changed.
62-9 BUKNAM-DONG ROOM 304, ROSE INN
Seok-hui once told me that on the morning
of his fifth police exam, having already failed four times,
he suddenly burst into tears while putting his socks on.
NATIONAL NAMHANG SSIREUM CHAMPIONSHIPS D-2
NATIONAL NAMHANG SSIREUM CHAMPIONSHIPS D-1
Our family's specialty, the seaweed stem dish.
Back then, I thought it was because Seok-hui was such a loser.
But now, I understand.
Do that later.
Baek-du, look.
These are the last champion trunks I have left.
- Maybe today, you can... - This time…
I don't want any of you to come this time.
I don't want any of you to come cheer for me.
What are you saying?
My subscribers have been dying to watch your next match.
Subscribers? Are you serious right now?
This is my mother.
Mom, say hi.
- Okay. - Nice to meet you.
I understand.
But Father!
Baek-du, these trunks have the tiger's energy.
Tiger…
Good luck.
Mr. Kim Baek-du is now taking his first step.
- Hey. - A step towards victory.
Go, Geosan-gun Ssireum Team!
Go, Kim Baek-du.
Are you sure you're okay by yourself?
- Here. Take the tiger. - Fine. Give it here.
Yes! All right.
Stay focused, okay?
Don't forget to call me.
You can go back in now.
- All right. - Okay.
- We will. - Just go.
Don't lose focus.
Baek-du, you got this. Okay?
My family has always been supportive of me,
even though I've never done well in championships.
You got this!
And I feel the heart behind it.
That must be why Seok-hui cried.
I'm leaving now.
Wait, Yu-gyeong.
I've been up all night thinking…
You don't look like it.
Anyway…
Are you sure about continuing this investigation?
What do you mean?
Right now, Kim Baek-du is the only one who knows,
but soon, more and more people will find out that you're Oh Du-sik.
Haven't you been keeping Kim Baek-du quiet to avoid that?
I don't think it'll stay that way...
As long as you keep quiet.
And I don't care if everyone finds it out.
I have to take this investigation.
All right.
I knew you would say that.
I was just saying.
I knew that I wouldn't be able to stop you.
Oh, right.
I forgot to tell you.
The café owner kept talking about Du-sik.
At first, I thought she was just some weirdo.
But now, I'm thinking she might have done that on purpose.
She kept talking about Du-sik?
But why?
What about Du-sik?
- Hey, Du-sik. - Jeez.
Why did you ignore my texts?
Well, that's because…
You see, I have this thing
where I can't sleep when my texts are ignored.
I'd like you not to do that again.
- All right. - How could you ignore my text?
No, hold on.
You seem to be acting up lately.
What?
Behave yourself.
I'm keeping score.
Fine.
Du-sik, wait up.
What did Jin-su say yesterday?
- Jin-su? - Yeah.
When you told him you wanted to participate.
Did you guys fight?
No way. He just said, "Sure, then." That was it.
What?
After all that pushback.
- Now he decides... - Du-sik.
You're coming to the match tomorrow, right?
- To cheer for me, right? - Come on.
Do I have to? Both the coach and the head coach will be there.
Of course, you should. You're the general manager.
I am, but still…
Wait.
I'm not your general manager.
I'm…
a police officer.
An officer of the Violent Crimes Unit of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency.
So you're not coming?
I would love to.
Whenever you lose focus,
I can go smack your head.
However,
I've just entered a new phase in the investigation.
I'm at a crucial juncture right now.
Understand?
But still, shouldn't I be your priority over work?
I don't have a match every day.
Was it Namhang?
Why? Are you coming?
Where are the other guys, by the way?
You're right.
They should be here by now. Why is no one coming?
GEOSAN-GUN SSIREUM TEAM
BAEK-DU
Slow down. It's dangerous.
Are you kidding me right now?
Is this supposed to be some sort of prank?
Seriously, I've never heard
of an athlete missing his team's bus on game day!
Jeez. How could you miss the meeting time
after training for years now?
I told you. I went there on time.
That's the time we usually meet up.
I have no idea why they got together early today.
I kept waiting, but they wouldn't show up or answer my call.
Also, why don't you have a driver's license yet?
Everyone gets one after finishing high school.
What have you been doing until now...
I tried to.
I tried to get a driver's license.
But…
I…
Failed the written exam twice,
so I gave up.
Jeez, you…
Everything she does is just so suspicious.
It's so nice here, isn't it?
It is.
Don't go. Gather up here.
- Hey, come here. - Okay.
All right.
To wish you guys good luck for the match,
I booked our accommodation with an ocean view.
So what should you do now?
- We'll do our best… - Yes.
You'll have to do well. All right?
- Yes, Coach. - Good.
Go to your rooms and weigh yourselves first.
If you're near the limit,
don't even swallow saliva until the weigh-in. Okay?
- Head Coach. - Yes?
I don't see Kim Baek-du.
What?
Where did he go?
- Baek-du? - Well…
We thought Baek-du wasn't competing. So we didn't wait for him.
I got a lot of missed calls.
Let me see.
Jeez.
Why is that patrol officer standing there
listening to both sides?
Does he think he's Solomon or what? I've got no time for this.
Gosh, this place is just…
Are you having a good time?
Is that why you're singing?
Listen, Du-sik.
Why don't we leave earlier next time so we can drive along this coast?
It takes about an hour longer,
but the road has a spectacular view all year round.
Do you want to be knocked to the ground?
If you ever miss the team bus again,
I'm seriously going to do that.
- Got it? - Oh, right!
We should stop by the rest stops on the way. Don't forget.
Gosh, could you please!
- What? - What's wrong with you? Jeez
Gosh, I love this place.
Jeez.
You just can't stay out of trouble, can you?
Hi, Snowball. You must've been thirsty.
Don't you have any work to do?
You're on duty now, and you're just hanging out with a dog.
Come on. I wasn't hanging out with her.
If I wanted to hang out, I would've done so with Baek-du or Jin-su,
not a dog I can't even talk to.
Are you sure? I think you two are of the same level.
My gosh!
Snowball, look what you're making me go through. Stop running away!
Oh, boy.
Did she run away again?
Where was she today?
She was heading to the reservoir again, but I caught her.
There must be a reason why she keeps going to the reservoir.
Hey, Lee Gyeong-mun!
Where are you coming from?
I asked you to watch the store for a minute,
and you couldn't even do that?
Why are you always roaming about?
Were you born with itchy feet or something?
- I... - Also,
you should've at least told me that you were going out.
I mean, we have rice cakes on the stall.
You were practically asking for thieves to come!
Have you lost your mind?
Oh, Snowball is here.
- Snowball. - Lee Gyeong-mun. Hey!
Come on. Can't you see? She's telling you to stop fighting.
Gandhi, you love peace, right?
Right. On the way here, I saw the café was closed.
Which one? Mi-ran's café?
Well, she opens and closes the café
when she feels like it.
She's one bold business owner.
Really? Is that okay though?
Who's to say it's not okay? She's the owner.
Is that so?
NAMHANG REST STOP
What's taking him so long?
Du-sik!
Seriously, does he think we're going on a picnic or what?
Isn't the weigh-in soon? Are you sure you can eat so much now?
I don't gain weight no matter how much I eat.
WELCOME TO NAMHANG
Kim Baek-du, 81 point…
two?
What? How…
Hey, Kim Baek-du.
Why did you gain so much weight?
This can't be right.
I weighed 79.7 kg yesterday. Something's not right.
Then how could you gain more than 1 kg overnight?
- How strange. - You…
What did you eat today?
Today?
Nothing much. I had breakfast and…
Right. I had some food from the rest stop.
Walnut cookies and a fish cake bar.
Right. And a couple of baby potatoes…
Baby potatoes?
Man, are you crazy? Who eats like that before a weigh-in?
I never go over 80 kg no matter how much I eat.
You're the one who insisted on competing! Have you lost your mind?
Don't just stand there. Put on a sweatshirt and go run laps!
Come on. Get going.
Don't walk! Keep running!
Jeong-hun!
I'm sorry he had to bother you when you're busy with your own work.
It's okay.
If it weren't for you,
he could've been in serious trouble.
You technically saved his life.
Come on. You flatter me.
Well, it would've been better
if you hadn't let him eat though.
Pardon?
I mean,
it would be a shame to be disqualified because of his weight
after barely making it here.
Hey, Baek-du!
You can't lose weight like that!
Hey!
Carry someone on your back. That'll definitely do it!
Who?
Should I go?
Forget it.
He's trying to lose weight, not break his back.
Go.
Gosh, what will we do? The weigh-in is soon.
To lose 1.4 kg, he should really be carrying someone…
Why are you all looking at me like that?
Come on. Am I that heavy?
Stop messing with me.
I'm not that heavy.
- Du-sik. - Seriously.
Du-sik.
You see, I can literally taste blood in my throat.
But it seems you've been eating well
for the past 20 years,
so I'm happy.
Hey, put me down.
- Hey. - I said, put me down.
- Don't move. - Let me just…
You're tiring me!
Don't move.
You're so dead later.
- Hey! - Wait.
You almost dropped me! Hold tight!
- Your arms! - All right.
- Gosh. - You're just…
Geosan-gun Ssireum Team, Kim Baek-du.
Yes.
- Baek-du. - Yeah?
Put your big toes down.
I got a pass!
Jeez.
That was so close!
Yes!
Can I get two cups?
Thank you.
Don't eat that. It's mine.
Man.
See, Baek-du?
You gain weight too, if you eat a lot.
Everyone gains weight when they eat a lot.
I worked out so hard that I'm starving now.
Eat up.
- And you, stop eating. - Okay.
- Eat up, guys. - Yes, Coach!
Excuse me.
Do you have anything other than seafood? Something non-seafood?
You do realize that we're in a sashimi restaurant, right?
I don't feel like sashimi today.
What's wrong?
You said you could eat only sashimi for every meal.
If you're not eating that, give it to me.
Sure. Have it.
Hey, don't take so much.
We have a lot here.
Is this for you two?
Yes.
Where?
A pay phone in the market?
There were six calls from there.
We've verified every call Yeon had over the past three months
except for that one.
INVESTIGATION TEAM 3
No, it couldn't have been Choi Chil-seong.
He had a call with this number after Choi died too.
I'm thinking there may have been someone
between Choi Chil-seong and Yeon Sang-cheol.
Wait.
Where are you now?
Namhang?
I told you to go undercover, and you're just playing around.
That's enough.
Anyway, you better hurry up.
I clearly said we had no time.
Wait, Captain.
What?
About what I asked earlier…
It's not done yet, is it?
Hey.
You know they're slow with official documents.
Just wait. They said it'd take a few days.
Okay.
All right.
Bye.
Hey, what are you doing out here?
Well, nothing.
What's wrong?
There's nothing to eat in there, right?
It's okay. I ate a bit. What about you?
Why did you come out here?
Shouldn't you eat well today for the match tomorrow?
It's okay. I'm not that hungry.
If I get hungry later, I can have some cup noodles.
Want to hang out…
in my room later?
What?
Why?
To have ramyeon and chill.
How about it?
You…
What are you trying to pull here?
What is it this time?
Do you even hear yourself? Hang out in your room and chill?
And have ramyeon?
- You're a dirty dog. - Hey.
You sneaky punk!
What are you thinking?
Where did you learn that?
Wait, what are you talking about?
I said, come over and have ramyeon.
As a late night snack.
I mean, you couldn't eat much here,
so you'll get hungry later.
So I wanted to make you some ramyeon.
Gosh, you hit me for nothing.
Is that so?
Du-sik, you've got to listen to what I say
more literally, with a pure mind.
I know we're grown-ups over 30,
but talking about ramyeon doesn't always imply something sexual.
No, I was just…
Gosh.
I love the sea breeze. It's so refreshing!
- It is. - Man.
This is nice.
By the way, why did you change your mind?
What?
About the match.
Why did you change your mind and decide to compete?
Did you suddenly feel more confident?
Do you think you'll do a good job?
No, not really.
Frankly speaking, I'm glad just to be participating.
You know?
What is it this time?
Why are you glaring at me like that?
You have no ambition, do you?
What?
"I want to be a champion."
"I want to be famous like before."
"I want my fame back."
Something like that.
Come on.
You see, if you get too greedy, you have to pay the price later.
And I heard my preliminary opponent is really strong.
Guess what his nickname is.
"Hercures."
So how will I beat him?
It's "Hercules," you idiot.
"Cures, cules." What's the difference?
What's the difference in our weight now?
About 30 kg?
I don't think so. Judging from when I carried you earlier,
we probably weigh the same...
Gosh.
Come on. I'm right.
I'm just stating the facts.
I may have overpowered you when we kids, but you're way stronger than me now.
But I just threw you over.
No, that's not fair.
You suddenly used the technique...
Then you do the same! Do you warn opponents beforehand?
Actually, I've been curious.
When you were little, you would slyly throw over
boys who were twice as big as you.
What are you so scared of now?
Why did you let go of your greed?
Are you a saint or what?
Be your old self.
Just wrestle like Kim Baek-du used to.
What are you doing?
Stand up.
Are you going to sleep here?
Stand up now.
Why did you have to say
that I was sly though?
Is this what you call sly? Pulling a slick move like this?
All of a sudden?
This is what you call sly, right?
You told me to be…
sudden…
Du-sik.
I'm so sorry.
I'm really sorry.
- Sorry, Du-sik. - You! Come here.
- Sorry. - Come here.
- Sorry! - You…
- Come here! - I said sorry!
Have you lost your mind?
Stop it.
- Stop what? - You can hurt me.
- I said I was sorry! - Hey!
You've been in there long enough. Come on out.
I can't. I can't stop it.
Gosh, I'm so sorry.
Baek-du.
Hey, Beom-su.
Where did you go in the middle of dinner?
I just…
- I took a walk. - A walk, I see.
Why is your face so red, by the way?
Is it red?
No, it's not.
Yes, it is. It's so red.
Look in the mirror.
- It's like you're wearing makeup. - No, I'm not.
My stomach hurts. Maybe I ate too much.
Go use the restroom.
- All right. See you later. - Okay.
Sang-uk, come on out.
Just finish up and come out.
- I'm sorry, but... - Gosh, just…
NAMHANG ARENA
I think we need more chairs there.
I told them to bring some more. They're coming now.
Right.
- Did you hear that? - Hear what?
One of the teams had dinner at the sashimi restaurant
by the beach yesterday,
and all the team members got food poisoning.
So they're all pulling out.
What? Which team is that?
Which team was it?
Right. It was the Geosan-gun Ssireum Team.
- Geosan-gun? - Yes.
I can't believe that happened.
- What a shame. - Right?
Food poisoning before the match?
Tell me about it.
MASS FOOD POISONING OUTBREAK IN NAMHANG
I can't believe these guys.
Why do they always give me a hard time?
Sir.
The ssireum team has just requested
that the sports committee cover the hospital bills.
What should we…
These guys are giving me a headache.
Seriously, if their match was the next day,
they should've just eaten some packed meals in their rooms,
not go out to the beach
and eat raw fish!
It seems they're thinking of all kinds of ways to screw me over
instead of doing ssireum.
They have to be.
I'm paying for the trip, food, accommodation, everything,
and now they want me to pay their hospital bills too. Am I wrong?
You're right, sir.
There's a limit to my patience.
These punks.
It could've been worse though.
Not everyone is pulling out.
One of them is still competing.
Well, that's very fortunate.
So who is he?
THE 23RD NAMHANG NATIONAL SSIREUM CHAMPIONSHIPS
Oh, boy.
Where is she? I don't see her.
Where are you?
DU-SIK
Hey, where are you?
When are you coming?
In Row S, at the back.
S…
Stop looking around
and focus on warming up.
Where is she?
Oh, there she is.
Yes, Captain.
About the thing you asked…
About the café owner.
Yes.
By the way,
don't you have something to tell…
Never mind.
Call me as soon as you find something.
Okay.
You know something, don't you?
The reason why Yu-gyeong came here.
Isn't that why you approved this investigation?
EMPLOYEE INFORMATION OH YU-GYEONG
I didn't know these backstories.
I get she's a bold owner, but isn't this too much?
Come on, you're too humble.
I know you can find out now if you want to.
I can?
- How will I... - Because you're a cop.
Are you not?
What do you mean?
Or maybe not.
Let me introduce the wrestlers.
In the blue satba
is Kim Baek-du of Geosan-gun Ssireum Team.
Age 32.
Height at 178 cm and weighing in at 80 kg.
His best placement is fifth place
in Taebaek class at the 2022 Chuseok Championships.
His opponent in the red satba
is Ahn Dong-min from Boeung City Hall Ssireum Team.
Age 25, 185 cm in height, and weighing in at 79 kg.
He debuted two years ago and hasn't won a championship yet,
but he's always made it to quarterfinals, which proves his skill.
- Dong-min. - Yes.
Kim Baek-du is all washed up now.
So just crush him with your strength. Okay?
Yes, Coach.
Red, blue.
Attention.
Bow.
To the center.
The Namhang Ssireum Championships.
Kim Baek-du from Geosan versus Ahn Dong-min from Boeung.
- Knees up! - Kim Baek-du seems to be struggling.
- His face is all red. - Stand up.
Right. Ahn Dong-min has great strength,
so it won't be easy getting a head start
at the satba standoff.
The first preliminary match begins.
Push and Throw!
Ahn Dong-min wins this round easily with his specialty, Push and Throw!
Kim Baek-du tried to hold out until the end,
but the attack was so sudden
that it probably baffled him.
When you were little, you would slyly throw over
boys who were twice as big as you.
Be your old self.
Just wrestle like Kim Baek-du used to.
Blue, red!
Kneel.
Bring the knees closer.
Grab satbas!
Knees up!
Stand up.
Ready.
Hold your position.
Hold your position!
Blue, warning!
Kim Baek-du didn't take position fast enough.
- He received a warning. - Move back.
Kim was lagging.
- In the first satba standoff. - Hold your position.
- So he wants a good position this time. - Hold it.
- He should be mindful about the warning. - Ready.
Now, the second round begins.
Ahn Dong-min won the first round.
Let's see who's going to win this round.
Ahn Dong-min lifted him! Lifting Throw!
Kim Baek-du is holding out.
Kim Baek-du made an incredible move!
Now, the game is tied again.
That's right. Kim predicted Ahn's move,
quickly lowered his position, and pushed himself against Ahn,
countering his skill.
That was a very smart move.
Throw him over in the next round.
- Yes, Coach. - You got this.
- Thanks. - Go for it.
Blue, red!
Kneel.
Bring your knees closer.
Grab satbas.
The two wrestlers are locked in an intense satba standoff.
It seems that they're both trying to lower their positions.
Is it okay to wear the waist satba like this?
- Put your arm closer. - Okay.
Knees up.
- The score is 1-1. - Stand up.
The third round begins.
Let's see which wrestler will continue their challenge
to become a Taebaek-class champion.
Latching Hook!
Both wrestlers are attempting Latching Hook at the same time!
That was amazing, Kim Baek-du!
He came from behind to claim victory against the hot favorite, Ahn Dong-min,
continuing his challenge to be a champion!
The two wrestlers just attempted a Latching Hook
at the same time.
But Kim Baek-du took it a step further.
He pulled the back of Ahn's knee, throwing off his balance.
He instantly used the Popliteal Hook technique.
That was a very smart move.
BLUE: KIM BAEK-DU RED: NOH JIN-TAE
Kim Baek-du lifts him.
Kim wins the first round, beating his opponent
with Lifting Throw, followed by Push and Throw.
KIM BAEK-DU: 1 NOH JIN-TAE: 0
Kim's Lifting Throw, combined with an inner leg skill,
secures him a ticket to the round of 16!
Kim Baek-du is on a roll today.
As soon as Noh lost balance,
Kim threw him over right away.
- I know! - He made it to the next round?
Look at his leg!
That's an amazing inner leg skill.
That was incredible.
Tell me about it!
Stand up.
Ready.
He easily throws Shin Gi-beom with Clenched Interception!
SHIN GI-BEOM: 0 KIM BAEK-DU: 1
Countering Shin's outer leg skill,
Kim Baek-du of Geosan Team secures a win!
- Baek-du. - He's good.
Kim Baek-du briskly moves on to the quarterfinals
backed by his various techniques.
Well done.
Well done, man.
JANG GEUN-SU: BLUE KIM BAEK-DU: RED
Kim continues his smart strategy
of breaking the opponent's balance and then employing an outer leg skill.
Kim was on the brink of defeat against Jang's Lifting Throw,
but he turned the tables with a suplex move!
Kim is absolutely on fire today.
He breezes through to the semifinals.
- Yes. - Does he have a stye?
Why does he keep blinking?
Look at his eyes.
He's totally high.
Could he have invited a lady friend?
A lady friend?
That must be why he was acting weird,
and saying we shouldn't come.
He was definitely acting strange.
Are you sure?
There can't be a lady friend in there.
She must be older than him.
Did you see me?
I was really on fire just now, wasn't I?
Just as expected,
Lim Dong-seok of Seongwon City Hall proceeds to the finals.
Baek-du.
Hey, Dong-seok.
Did you win your semifinal?
- Yes, I guess. - Man.
You always have to be the champion, don't you?
You're doing well yourself today.
You think?
See? I told you.
I said you better watch out.
I heard everyone else is in the hospital now.
You're alone today.
Well, what can I do about it?
Life happens, you know?
- It's okay. - Just win this next round.
So we can meet in the finals.
Gosh, okay.
Keep it up, man.
I told her not to ignore my texts,
and she's doing just that.
NAMHANG ARENA THE 23RD NAMHANG SSIREUM CHAMPIONSHIPS
In the blue satba is Kim Baek-du from Geosan-gun Ssireum Team.
The blue satba enters.
Kim Baek-du of Geosan-gun Ssireum Team.
Kim Baek-du seems to be in excellent shape today.
He's shown great performances today, making it to the semifinals.
At this rate, he might actually be able to win his first championship today.
Contending against Kim Baek-du,
in the red satba, is Ha Chang-bae of Gyeongan-gun Ssireum Team.
He's 185 cm tall and weighs in at 80 kg.
And he's turned 24 this year.
This is his first pro championship ever.
- Chang-bae. - Still, he has managed to power through
to the semifinals.
He is certainly a hot favorite today.
That's right. Both contestants are going for their first champion title today.
I'm so curious to find out which wrestler will emerge triumphant.
Kneel.
Grab satbas.
So this is how these two made it here!
The two wrestlers refuse to budge in this satba standoff.
It's also a skill to make it harder for your opponent to grasp your satba.
It may look like they're just getting ready,
but there's already an intense match going on over there.
- Now, let's see. - Stand up.
Which contestant will face off against Seongwon's Lim Dong-seok,
- who's already made it to the finals. - Ready!
Ha Chang-bae lifts Kim!
He's attempting Clenched Interception.
An inner leg skill!
Rear Knee Takedown!
The moment Ha lost balance and started falling,
Kim used Rear Knee Takedown.
He didn't lose focus until the end and threw his opponent over.
He's very experienced indeed.
What are you doing here?
The head coach sent us here.
We're feeling a little better than the others.
What?
But you don't look well.
This…
Don't worry, and just head back.
You should go rest.
No, the head coach said he felt bad seeing you compete alone,
so we should help you stay strong.
Help me stay strong?
It looks like I should help you stay strong.
I can't believe you made it this far all by yourself. I'm really impressed.
It's okay. The general manager is here, cheering for me.
That's been giving me strength.
The general manager? Where is she?
She's over there. Right over…
Where?
Over there…
I don't see her.
- Over there, the green… - Oh, right.
Ms. Oh headed back to Geosan because something came up.
I heard Head Coach talking to her over the phone at the ER.
What?
Hello…
KIM BAEK-DU: 1 HA CHANG-BAE: 0
Blue! Come on in!
Mr. Kim Baek-du, please get in the ring.
Hey, what are you doing?
Baek-du, get in the ring.
Baek-du, come on. What are you doing all of a sudden?
Yeah, I'm going.
Go for it!
The tension in the air between the two wrestlers is palpable.
About the café owner.
Her father was a wrestler on the team you're working for now.
Joo Cheol-yong,
the victim of the murder that happened there 20 years ago.
She's his daughter.
It's been a while.
Time flies.
Right?
Du-sik.
LIKE FLOWERS IN SAND
I told her I couldn't sleep when my texts are ignored.
I won't be able to sleep until next year.
I'm following that woman named Mi-ran right now.
She's heading somewhere with a big bag.
Du-sik! Oh Du…
Did something happen yesterday?
Nothing happened.
What could happen between me and him?
Hey, Oh Du-sik.
What was that face just now?
Snap out of it!
Du-sik, I remembered something.
