(Mental Coach Jegal)
(All people, organizations, locations, and incidents...)
(in this drama are fictitious.)
Wake up, Moo Kyeol.
Moo Kyeol. What's wrong?
What should we do with him?
There are such days.
In a situation when we must win,
in front of everyone, we crash miserably.
In a game we were sure we'd win,
we lose incredulously.
Just when the hard-earned victory is right before us,
we are unable to rejoice.
The day we must let go of the dream...
we so desperately wished for.
How dare you?
The long days where you have no choice...
but to survive the humiliation and torment.
The day when the smallest of pebbles trips you up.
I myself faced so many such days.
Only after I fell so hard I couldn't do anything about it,
that's when I thought.
Why don't I have such rights?
What do you mean I allow it?
I'm not someone you can just walk all over.
I'm also...
My gosh. I'm glad you came.
Soo Ji, get me a towel and a blanket. Hurry.
What's the matter with you?
I told you to stop. You keep... Why must you make me weak?
Why did you say I could come to you anytime?
Why did you keep...
Ga Eul.
I hate it too!
I'm sick of having to put up with the abuse.
I'm sick of fighting and winning.
I hate skating. I hate everything!
Okay, all right. I understand.
The truth is...
I'm not strong at all.
Please help me.
Help me, please.
It's all good now.
It's okay to trip up.
It's okay to fall.
Because we have the right to fail.
I didn't clean up, so the place is a mess.
Come in.
Come in before you catch a cold. Come on, get in here.
Come in.
Stay right here.
Wipe yourself down and change into this.
Here?
What are you thinking, kid?
I'll be downstairs, so relax and change.
The bathroom's behind you, so shower in some hot water.
You're drenched. You'll catch a cold.
Come down when you're done.
You look like you're wearing a sack.
I can't chop the sleeves. Let's roll them up.
Why did you give me this to wear?
This is the smallest of my clothes.
This is skin-tight to me.
I have broad shoulders.
Don't just stand there. Sit.
Goodness. You took a bad tumble.
Did you jump right up without feeling the pain?
How could you tell?
He doesn't have to see to know.
You're as prickly as a hedgehog.
That's the worst thing you can do after a fall.
Getting right up.
That's right. You could injure your bones by doing that.
Correct.
There. Now lie on your back.
Go on.
Let's see.
However embarrassed you are, if you fall down,
- stay down for a while. - That's right.
Then one of the nicer passers-by will help you up.
If no one nice passes by,
and you feel embarrassed to death,
then you stay on the ground...
Once everyone has moved on,
that's when you get up slowly.
That's how to not hurt yourself more.
Only an idiot would hop right up.
People don't know better...
and get right back up after a fall.
Did you hear that? That's what to do.
Drink this.
You can talk freely now.
What happened?
Just... This and that.
Ji Soo left. I lost a toenail,
and my team disbanded.
Do I have to go into detail whenever I have a consultation?
No, you don't have to if you don't want to.
The facts of what happened aren't that important.
What's important are your feelings.
What's too hard or awkward to say,
you can write down like it's a journal.
I already have a training journal. I don't need...
That's not a training journal. It's an emotion journal.
You write down what you feel that day.
"Today, I felt happy, angry, sad." Stuff like that.
It's like a diary with pictures we kept as kids.
I'm bad at that.
That's why we'll work on it together.
I'll help you.
How can this help with my training?
You do weight training every day, don't you?
And sharpen your skates.
And consult trainers.
Our hearts are just the same.
Our hearts have muscles too,
and if we don't use or sharpen them, they break down.
Consider this training of the heart that I'm putting you through.
Twice a week, after dinner at 8pm.
Outside the Religious Support Center.
Okay?
Okay? Okay.
See you.
- Goodbye. - Bye.
Just like my leg quit protesting for some unknown reason,
the same moment came for her.
What the heart does is hard to understand.
(Today's emotion journal)
(You feel like you'll die but you won't.)
(Today's emotion journal)
This is crazy.
Doing 100 squats would be more helpful.
There were such rumors going around?
Yes.
Should we kill the jerk?
Don't get carried away.
We must confirm if it's true...
Asking to confirm will only cause more hurt.
That jerk is still there, and that's the problem.
I want to bury Oh Dal Sung for good.
He's got deep roots in the industry, so it could be risky for us.
Who wants out?
Then use your connections to figure out...
what we can use against him...
before we meet again.
I thought it only concerned those who weren't good.
Ga Eul is...
She's good, you know.
I didn't think he'd do such a thing...
to one of his top-performing athletes.
So I had no idea...
Ga Eul experienced something like that.
But what can I do?
My daughter's future...
depends on that jerk.
I'd go there right now...
and tell them to fire him if I could,
but she has to be trained by that jerk...
to win a medal.
The other athletes' parents...
are in the same boat.
They don't want to ruin their children's careers,
so they hold back and just put up with it.
Back then,
you cried so much that your eardrums ruptured.
I know how you felt.
I know everything,
so don't worry too much. I will...
- I'll tell Ga Eul and... - No, don't.
If you tell her,
she'll be so heartbroken that she'll want to quit.
Hey, Moo Tae.
What's on your mind?
Is it about your sister's team disbanding?
What? The team disbanded?
You didn't know?
Oh.
The team has been disbanded.
They even have to pay the penalty for breach of contract.
I guess you didn't know.
I met your sister.
I told her to come to me,
but I knew she wouldn't. She's too young.
So?
You haven't changed your mind?
It really is a great position.
Hey, Moo Tae.
I'm a self-made man, and I struggled when I was an athlete too.
Do you know what you must do...
to become a self-made man when you come from nothing?
Swallow your pride.
Pride?
I gave it all up years ago.
But you see,
I'd never join hands with the scumbag who hit my sister.
Look at that.
He's just like his sister.
They've got nothing, yet they're so proud.
Why would you even offer that idiot a job?
("The Reason Behind Lee Moo Kyeol's Panic Disorder")
("Rumored to Be Dating Han Yeo Woon")
("Lee Moo Kyeol's Arrogance Is to Blame")
(I knew this would happen when I heard the dating rumors.)
(- He's a jerk. - He thinks he's a celebrity.)
(Bulletin Board)
Gosh, it's cold in here.
Hey, Moo Kyeol!
What am I doing with that nutjob?
You're early.
Good. I like that attitude.
What's with that outfit?
Why?
I handpicked this outfit specifically for this training.
Darn it.
All right. Let's get started.
I'm in a bad mood today,
so I don't think I can do this.
Hey, wait. You promised...
to give me five chances.
Darn it.
Look at your muscles.
Just do it...
Okay, all right. Close your eyes.
Close your eyes. Do it.
Good.
All right. We're in Hawaii right now.
No need to worry about things like records or rankings.
A beautiful white sand beach unfolds before your eyes.
You can feel the wind.
A nice breeze that puts you in a good mood.
The waves move out...
and back toward you.
You can see the white seafoam...
reflecting the sun.
It sparkles in the sun. How beautiful.
You're so unimaginative.
Just go. Go in.
I can't do this today.
That's why I'm telling you to do it.
I can't do this yet. My heart is about to burst...
Your heart won't burst.
Don't worry. Just go in. Trust me and go in.
I'm telling you. I feel like I'm going to die!
Goodness. Hey, look! There's a dolphin.
Yes! You won't die.
Thirty minutes tops. Hang in there.
You can do it!
- You got this, Lee Moo Kyeol! - Help!
One, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve...
See? That only took you ten minutes.
Well done, Lee Moo Kyeol.
You nearly killed me.
Hey. You're Lee Moo Kyeol, the world's best swimmer.
You'll never drown.
You can trust me on that.
What you have is an OCD obsession...
created by your subconscious belief that equates failure with death.
Your perfectionism tells you that you must do better...
and always be number one.
Admitting it is the first step in recovery.
So just accept it.
Anyway, you did a great job.
This training was very successful.
That's what you think.
Successful, my foot.
This is your failure training.
Therefore, today's training session was very successful.
Remember this, Moo Kyeol.
You have the right to fail.
Nonsense!
The world treats you very differently...
the moment you fail.
When you're successful,
they compliment you and applaud everything you do.
They call you a genius and treat you like a hero.
But the moment you make one mistake,
they suddenly change and start chewing you out.
The right to fail?
There's no such thing.
You think you've lived long enough to know everything?
Don't be so sure of anything...
until you've been through it all.
Your first underwater training session.
Failed!
Lee Moo Kyeol.
You failed!
That nutjob.
Look at him.
He was so full of himself. It serves him right.
How could a swimmer faint in the water?
He's a has-been now.
Admitting it is the first step in recovery.
So just accept it.
Hey, watch your posture.
Do better.
You need to at least do your best.
I said, lower!
Hey, forget the Olympics.
You won't even pass the selection process.
- I'll do better. - I heard you were seeing Ga Eul.
Hey, she's a gold medalist.
You've only won bronze. You should be embarrassed.
Sure. I'm a nobody.
I'm a loser who can't win medals.
I'm nothing, I guess.
But the great Cha Ga Eul isn't all that superior either.
I'm mortified to have actually liked you.
It sickens me.
Ga Eul, back then...
Don't talk to me if you know I've been avoiding you.
It sickens me.
I get it now...
I get why you reacted that way.
I get how we ended up like this.
It wasn't because of you or me for that matter.
What drove us apart were my foolish insecurities.
Don't look at me that way.
I'm humiliated enough.
(Counseling Room 3)
What on earth are you wearing?
My uniform for Lee Moo Kyeol's counseling session.
Darn, it's cold.
Please don't tell me you did something funny.
It's all part of his healing process.
As if you'd know.
I'm warning you in advance that yips can be a sensitive matter.
A dangerous approach...
can ruin an athlete's career forever.
I get it.
Don't do that. Come to me for advice when you need it.
I said I got it.
I bet her heart skipped a beat.
Can Lee Moo Kyeol get better before the Southeast Asian Games?
He'll have to be.
I mean, he'll recover.
To be honest, I have little faith in his current mental coach.
What could a former taekwondo athlete...
know about swimming?
He's not even a licensed psychiatrist.
Finding a specialist on the outside...
will be like feeding him to the wolves.
More bad press...
will take away his good image of being an Olympic champion.
How will you resolve the matter of the selection process?
It seems as though there was precedent.
What are your thoughts on the matter?
Champions get to boast their titles for at least three years,
so a hero like Lee Moo Kyeol?
Have it ruled the same way.
And be more supportive of Do Jin Ho.
I'm sure you know...
that Sangeon Construction is our main sponsor.
Right.
Perhaps I could make up for my error...
by putting a lid on the press.
So you cause an illness but hand out the cure?
It's better than spreading an incurable virus, sir.
- Here. - Right.
- Here you go. - Thanks.
- Thank you. - Sure.
Darn it. The smell of Chinese food is enough to make me barf.
What is it?
Cha Ga Eul?
Was the training session recorded?
Is that so?
Hi.
- Thanks for this. - Sure.
Wait, is this it? Where's the rest?
I couldn't write anything. Nothing came to my mind.
Is that so? I see.
I'm curious.
I learned to keep emotions out of sports.
If I had been emotional,
I would've quit more than 100 times.
How can one do whatever he or she wants?
That's what makes you a loser.
Shouldn't a mental coach teach me to be strong...
and help me build a winning mentality?
Why are you laughing?
I'm proud of you.
That's how you do it.
Those are the emotions you're currently feeling,
and you should just jot them down.
Be angry if you are.
Complain if something seems wrong.
That's how you train your muscles.
Muscles that help you express yourself.
What good would they do?
They'll become the shield you need.
Sports may be physical activity,
but half of it relies on one's mental strength.
If you suppress your emotions, your muscles will absorb them.
Letting it continue will lead to having the yips.
That's why you must liberate the suppressed emotions.
The athletes I respect...
train until their bodies give out.
Emotions only get in the way.
Well...
That may not always be the case.
Let's go.
He won't say anything.
Let's head back.
Hey, Moo Kyeol!
Don't have too much fun.
Don't drink until you black out.
I can take care of myself, you know.
Sure. Do as you wish.
By the way, how do you and he know each other?
Is he your mental coach?
He doesn't seem like your regular shrink.
How are the consultations?
It's hard on me as well.
Seeing you react this way in Ga Eul's presence.
"You're the reason Ga Eul joined a company team."
I know you silently resent me.
That's not it.
I'm...
I'm embarrassed.
I'm embarrassed that she has to see me like this.
You're the only one I've told.
Hey.
Why would you be embarrassed?
You're Lee Moo Kyeol. The best swimmer in Korea.
Keep being a loser like that, and I'll stop hanging out with you.
Gosh. I hear you, ma'am. Shall we?
- Do you get it? - I do.
- Do you? - Sure.
- So... - Yes?
How about tangsuyuk and soju?
I'll pour the sauce over the meat.
- No, we'll dip. - No way.
Has there been a day when you don't want to look back?
A day you want to bury...
so that no one including yourself can see what has happened.
Of course.
I keep them down in a covered well.
Exactly.
So don't ask for details.
Instead of asking questions,
can I confess something?
I read somewhere...
that not drawing water from a well regularly...
is what makes them dry up.
My well dried up long ago.
That's why I do this.
My job is like...
looking into the wells of others, you see.
By looking at what's in others' hearts,
I see myself reflected in them.
You also have a well that you keep covered up.
What could be in there?
And what would I see as my reflection?
Doesn't it intrigue you?
It felt weird.
As if there were a well somewhere in my heart,
I could feel something being filled up.
If such a thing actually exists,
what could be in there?
Aren't I right?
I think she's almost fully recovered.
She's not as good as in her prime,
but this kind of speed...
Rewind that a bit.
Stop, play.
Did she get some kind of miracle injection?
Kids these days have it too easy, don't they?
They do.
They have it way too easy.
Let's train in the rink tomorrow afternoon instead.
Okay.
Illegal sports gambling?
Look. Here, here, and here.
Three security cameras.
Why would a Chinese restaurant need this many by the door?
And look at the mugs of these guys.
Don't they all look like thugs? This is Oh Dal Sung.
This is where he swipes his credit card the most.
They spend almost 10,000 dollars a month here.
Isn't this way too much to say it's just gambling?
A coach doesn't make that much.
He's spending the bribes he got from the parents.
No, you can't afford 10,000 a month with just bribes.
I bet it's from...
a coach he hired to train wannabes in his name.
You can make this much if you train ten hopefuls a month.
Lots of famous coaches do that.
We could get rid of him for good...
if it really is illegal sports gambling.
I know how it works because I was part of it.
The server is always overseas, so even if he does gamble,
it'll be hard to get proof.
We can get it.
Cha Moo Tae.
He's not just a gambler.
Oh Dal Sung's actually a broker.
What... How do you know that?
Do you need a job?
If it's the money you need, I'm your quickest bet.
Isn't Lee Kang San a famous broker...
who used to play baseball?
Yes. He's a regular at my club.
Why would you do that?
My gosh.
Don't you know what brokers are like?
I need the money.
If it's to protect my sister,
I can do anything.
- Don't do it. - He's right. Please don't do it.
I was a broker myself once.
Once you get in, it's really hard to get out.
It's worse than organized crime.
Don't do it.
If I can get rid of Oh Dal Sung, I won't. I won't have to.
If he's gone,
I can protect my sister somehow.
If he placed bets with his bribes and worked as a broker,
it's that.
Match fixing.
Stay out of it, Moo Tae.
If it becomes known you made contact with Kang San, you'll be a suspect.
Let's check out the vital spot.
Sang Gu, infiltrate the restaurant.
A jjajangmyeon, please.
One jjajangmyeon.
Do you have a reservation?
On the first floor is an ordinary restaurant.
The second floor is the gambling den.
You must name whoever vouched for you to get in.
They only let vetted people upstairs.
They're given out special receipts.
I think there's an exchange counter nearby.
Thank you.
Follow Mr. White Shoes.
Shoe repair stall near the restaurant.
This is where the cash is picked up.
You have nothing to worry about.
Their director and I are as close as brothers.
Hello.
Be sure to pay for the meal once you're done eating.
Okay.
Goodbye, Sergeant Oh.
He thinks he's a coach too, does he?
(Korea Skating Union Training Center)
Hey!
Oh, hello. It's you, Coach.
Will you watch where you're going?
I'm so sorry.
Your collar's flipped outward.
Hands off.
Sorry. Take care.
My bad.
Contact made.
Coach, the rink is ready for training.
Did you tell them about our change of location?
Yes. But do we have to do this?
You've been challenging me lately.
Okay, receiving loud and clear.
Good. Now we just need the target and date.
Bye.
Why is no one here?
You'll skate hard today, so warm up nice and well.
Okay.
I don't hear you!
- Okay! - Okay!
Don't you know the time? Why are you so late?
I thought we were training outside.
Did you not tell her we'd train here today?
I did. I contacted everyone.
I'll change for training right now.
You're not going anywhere without my permission!
You're...
sitting this one out.
You're just a reserve and you show up late?
You're really screwing it up for the team.
Assume the position.
Don't stand and glare at me. Assume the position.
Are you kidding me?
How did I make it and Dong Jin didn't...
when I didn't complete the race and he came first?
He applied for training a day too late.
That's on him.
How do you explain Do Jin Ho coming first when he came last?
The selection process has changed.
It's not just about the final round.
We add up the records from the prelims to the final.
Why did they suddenly change the rules?
You don't know?
They're doing all they can to save you...
Did I ask to be saved?
You're one of our country's most promising stars.
Letting your emotions get in the way...
You people are the ones letting your emotions run things.
You let Do Jin Ho, the worst swimmer through.
Isn't that because Sangeon is his sponsor?
You provided the cause.
Dong Jin applying for training a day late?
We could've let that slide.
Do you know why we didn't?
Because he knew of your problem and didn't alert the union.
He's on the union's bad books.
Because of you.
If you've got it, you can get lost.
Then I just have to leave the team.
What?
I won't represent Korea.
Now you have an opening.
Get Dong Jin back on.
No.
- What? - No one told me we'd train here.
And you're not allowed to hit athletes during training.
Give me a good reason...
A good reason?
This.
You show up late and talk back.
You look down on your coach and ruin the atmosphere!
Assume the position.
Do as I say, you witch!
I warned you.
That if you touched me again,
I would fight back.
I won't train...
at the expense of getting hit.
That's great news. Get lost!
Don't you dare come back.
I'll drop you for missing training without a good cause!
Stay out of it unless you want to get in trouble too.
(Religious Support Center)
I'm not following you.
Did you get slapped?
Do you see me now?
Am I not invisible?
Are you leaving without permission too?
It's odd.
You're the bigshot Lee Moo Kyeol.
You're nothing like me,
but I see myself in you.
The insecure loser that I am.
Hey, Young To.
What?
Oh, okay.
Where are you going? You still have a few hours left.
Oh, I have to... I'm busy right now.
Hey, you can't leave early...
What is he up to?
(Religious Support Center)
(Sports Science Center)
(Korea National Training Center)
Ga Eul.
My gosh.
The first time is the hardest.
It's nothing now that I've done it a couple of times.
It's easy,
but I have nowhere to go.
I can't go home.
Get in.
You too. Hop in.
The bus stops running early here.
You can come with us,
or wait all day.
Come on. Hop in.
Why would I get into his car?
Yeo Sang Gu, a wrestler.
I'm not a thug.
I have some scars. Here, I got a few stitches.
I also have cuts here and there. I do my best to cover them,
but I don't care if you look.
But this, I can't cover.
Hi, I'm a shooter.
Call me Pistol Park.
Gosh, you scared me.
What is going on here?
Don't always assume that everyone has two eyes, Mr. Genius.
Even if he's prejudiced, he can be forgiven because of his looks.
How old are you?
I bet you're older than him. He's a kid.
Who cares? He's handsome.
Gil, why did you bring him here? Aren't you mistaken?
Come on. You know that we don't like geniuses.
Darn it.
- What? "Darn it?" - "Darn it?"
- We're not that bad! - "Darn it?"
- How dare he? - Come on. We're not that bad.
Goodness gracious.
- I can't believe this. - Guys! Again?
You guys are at it again!
No, this punk provoked us first.
He's boasting because he won three medals.
Because he makes three million dollars a year.
People used to call me a genius too!
Hey, you guys are making yourselves look even more pathetic.
Hey, what's our motto?
- Let's fight! - Come here, you little...
Fine! Come at me.
Who wants to go first?
Let's fight.
- Lee Moo Kyeol? - Yes.
I don't know what kind of training they're doing,
but did he really have to put a swimmer on the diving board?
If Moo Kyeol gets hurt or something,
will your team take responsibility?
Moo Kyeol is worth three million dollars!
I understand what you're trying to say,
but you talking about how much they're worth...
could make them feel more suffocated. Don't you realize that?
Are you saying it's my fault that Moo Kyeol is so messed up now?
That's not what I meant.
It's an extreme method, but I think he's trying...
cognitive restructuring, based on Moo Kyeol's personality.
Being repeatedly exposed to his fear of water...
will help reduce it. It's a type of exposure therapy.
- Sorry? - You talked about responsibility.
When it comes to athletes, one team can't be held responsible.
We're all responsible.
The athletes and all of us.
Ready, go!
Sang Gu, you can do it. Go!
- This is fun. - You got this!
Use your muscles, Mr. Genius.
Shall I knock him down? Okay, here we go.
- One, two, three. Go! - One, two, three.
- Yes! - Let's do it once more.
- One more time? - Sure!
Darn it.
- Bull's-eye! - Yes!
Nice!
Shoot.
Darn it!
- He hit the bull's-eye again! - Yes!
Let's do it one more time. That was weird.
Okay, sure!
- Okay! - Do it again.
No one told me we'd train here.
And you're not allowed to hit athletes during training.
Give me a good reason...
A good reason?
This. You show up late and talk back.
You look down on your coach and ruin the atmosphere!
I warned you.
That if you touched me again,
I would fight back.
I won't train...
at the expense of getting hit.
Ga Eul has gotten much stronger, right?
Yes.
Keep on listening in.
Call me right away if the coach does anything wrong.
Okay.
- Let's go! - Go for it!
- Fight! - Show him!
- Go for it! - Go easy on him.
Let go.
Darn it!
Oh, no.
Stop Moo Kyeol. He's very competitive.
Yes, I know.
That's what he's training for. How to lose.
How to lose?
You're training to win, Ga Eul.
And that fool is training to lose.
Nice, keep it up! Lee Moo Kyeol, you're doing great!
Oh, no! Ouch.
Go easy on him!
Lee Moo Kyeol lost!
- You failed! - Jegal Gil, this idiot!
I should've just fired him back then.
But earlier, you said that it was a type of exposure therapy.
Yes, it is.
But if things go wrong...
If anything happens to Moo Kyeol,
the entire industry will be thrown upside down.
If that happens, they'll get rid of our team.
Go talk to Jegal Gil now.
Meet him now. I don't care what you have to do.
Persuade him, threaten him, and gag him.
Make him promise that he won't use such a risky method again.
Now?
Yes, now!
Now.
Your faith is what matters.
The faith that it's okay to fail.
Without that, you can never relax.
The reason you can't go in the water and keep losing.
It's simple. It's happening because you can't relax.
That's what I've been trained on since age seven. Day in, day out.
How to relax.
You can't do it because you're trying so hard.
- Who tries so hard to relax? - Exactly.
- Chill. It could kill you. - Seriously.
That's rich coming from you guys. You've won no medals.
But this one thing I know.
How it feels when water supports me and makes me float.
Even without me trying to move my arms and legs,
water makes me float.
The same goes for shooting. You're always told to relax your shoulders.
You think you're relaxing your shoulders,
but the coach keeps telling you that you're tense.
Then one day, you suddenly figure out how to do it.
It's not about relaxing your entire body.
You have to evenly distribute your strength.
Nice shot!
Life is like shooting in many ways.
Relax and don't waste your energy, but maintain balance.
That way, you won't collapse even if one thing fails.
You see, I used to be a sparring partner.
You know what it is, right? The one who lets his partners win.
I lost every day.
But one day, I had a revelation.
Wrestling is all about using your opponent's strength.
You have to relax...
and use your opponent's strength to knock them out.
I've never felt this way before.
Then how come you didn't win any medals?
Because I was always so nervous in the finals.
He doesn't look it, but he's mentally weak.
Back in my prime, I was the queen of spinning in the air.
The Produnova, known as the vault of death.
You have to spin in the air and land.
Do you know why I couldn't win a single medal?
Wanting to do well...
had my body tensing.
I'd do enough rotations in the air, but couldn't stick the landing.
And in gymnastics, the landing is half of your score.
Meanwhile, when I did stick my landing,
I was assigned a blind judge.
Stop her, will you? Let's not get her started.
Yes, we hear you.
You've had enough.
I don't regret it though.
I at least stuck a decent landing in life.
Nice.
It's not about landing the most powerful punch.
Being able to stand back up after getting knocked down.
That's more important.
- Like Rocky Balboa! - Like Rocky Balboa!
Bingo.
- Let's drink to that. - We make a good team.
Here.
Hey.
Come on in.
Well, now you've seen how I live.
Ga Eul, you can take my bed.
Moo Kyeol, take the couch.
Why am I getting the couch?
Why does she get your bed?
I won't be sleeping here tonight.
If it's because of me...
No, the others and I have things to do.
Anyway, make yourselves at home.
Moo Kyeol.
I have cameras installed in here.
Cross the line, and you'll pay for it.
What the...
Unbelievable.
Who installs cameras where he lives?
Coach Na, I'm on my way.
Just stop by briefly before the game.
The athletes are the ones competing, not us.
Sangeon Construction's basketball team was his target.
Are you familiar with it?
It was Oh Yeon Ji's team.
That punk of a coach ostracized his player...
and rigged matches.
When's their upcoming game?
Today at 9pm.
That's in an hour. Hurry.
We'll discuss the rest on our way.
This is the right address though.
How can one live in a place like this?
- Make sure to film it. - Coach Jegal.
We must catch the bribe on camera for it to be useful.
Don't you worry.
A bribe?
What on earth is he cooking up?
This must be done as quietly as possible.
An altercation will only hurt us.
Do you have Oh Dal Sung's user ID?
Just a second.
Here we go.
RksvndrleoWk.
Must it be this complicated?
He typed a Korean word on an English keyboard.
The keys read...
"large portion of ganpengji."
Even his user ID sounds like a loser.
Sang Gu, at the exchange counter, ask for a large portion of ganpengi.
Don't forget the slip.
Yes, sir!
Okay.
Chun Ho, are you on standby?
Dash over here when called.
Okay.
Gosh. Where on earth is he going?
Oh, no.
My gosh. I'm so sorry.
Are you all right?
Oh, no. Good night.
Darn you, Jegal Gil!
Coach Na.
Did we have to meet on such a busy day?
- Gosh, this is heavy. - Goodness.
- You know I must check. - Go ahead.
It's nice and warm. Goodness.
- Seriously. - Nice and hot.
Goodness.
That's the money shot.
Oh Dal Sung is here.
Okay.
If things go sideways, we'll just let Chun Ho handle it.
There will be no bloodshed.
I heard you.
You're to only film Oh Dal Sung and leave.
Yes, of course.
(Hankyung Liquor Corp.)
He came all this way for jjajangmyeon?
- Gosh. - Who made the referral?
Oh, right. Well...
By " large portion of ganpengi."
I see. You're one of his friends.
That's right.
- He just went upstairs. - Is that so?
Right, he actually called.
- Nice! - Yes!
- See? - No way.
- What did I tell you? - Seriously.
I should've bet my money on the opposing team.
- Nice! - I should've known better.
- Darn it. - What a bummer.
- Nice! - Yes!
- Darn it! - Are you kidding me?
What the...
- That's it! - Unbelievable.
Are you receiving?
Are you getting this?
The image is crystal clear.
Who made the referral?
Sorry? I'm here to find someone.
I won't be up there for long.
The space upstairs isn't for just anyone.
Must I be qualified to eat jjajangmyeon?
I said it wouldn't take long.
A weird lady is on the first floor. Come over here, please.
How dare you put your hands on me.
How do they train their employees here?
I want to see your manager.
(Basketball Live Betting: Sangeon Construction Loses)
- Yes! - Nice!
- Are you kidding me? - Unbelievable.
I just can't get a break today.
How does this make any sense?
- Darn it. - What did I tell you?
What do you think you're doing? Let go of me!
Let go. Get your hands off of me!
Let go of me!
What the... Are you a member of a gang?
How perceptive of you.
That's what I am.
All I wanted was a bowl of jjajangmyeon.
I'll just leave then.
You may enter whenever you like,
but not when you leave.
Gosh, my apologies.
She's a friend of mine,
and we were just about to leave.
Let's not make a mess of things.
And who might you be?
This is why I told you not to make a scene.
Get down here!
Brother!
What on earth?
- Darn it. - Oh, dear.
I'll hold them off,
- so get yourself to safety. - What on earth is going on?
I'm just as clueless, all right?
- Get him. - You!
Who's that woman?
Out.
What?
Out. Get out of the truck.
Hold him up.
Who was that?
Who are you lot?
You should've just let us go when I said we'd leave quietly.
It's not too late yet.
Can we just leave now?
Get them all.
That hurt.
That hurt!
How did that rat...
- What... - Oh Dal Sung. Get over here!
Chun Ho. What great timing.
He's a police officer with a black belt in judo.
You are all under arrest because we caught you...
on site gambling illegally.
Take them all.
Oh Dal Sung!
- Come along. - Let go!
- Let go of me! - Come with us.
Darn you.
That was for assaulting the athletes.
You're done for.
You... Darn you.
- I won't go down like this! - Come along.
Should I thank you for saving my life?
No, not at all.
I said you should never get involved.
How could you do something so insane?
I didn't mean to go this far,
but you got in the way and...
How are you so reckless? Someone could've died.
You're not dead!
Not me, you!
You really...
aren't cured yet.
You're still full of fury.
That's why you do this without thinking.
This is why I tried so hard to stop you,
but you went and got into trouble.
That's all...
I won't keep quiet about what happened tonight.
I will report it, so be prepared.
Dr. Park.
If I didn't do this, Oh Dal Sung would go on beating athletes.
I had to eradicate...
Seung Ha. Dr. Park.
You won't report this, will you?
You won't...
You can't... Dr. Park...
Who was that?
My colleague.
We got rid of Oh Dal Sung for good, didn't we?
Not you.
Hey.
He's crazy.
What if something terrible happened?
He'll keep doing that if he stays.
I must get him fired.
- I flipped him over. - An illegal gambling ring...
- disguised as a restaurant... - No way.
- I saved you. - Their VIP members...
- and brokers were caught on site. - I saved you all.
- That was all me. - The gamblers arrested today...
included a current national team coach.
She's not picking up.
She won't report this, will she?
The coach spent 200,000 dollars on illegal gambling...
over the past year,
and the prosecution is determined...
to locate the source of the cash flow.
If the coach...
- colluded with other personnel... - You insist?
to fix matches,
not only will he be fired...
Why won't Pistol Park pick up?
Did he not get the photos of the bribe changing hands?
- The person you called... - He's Pistol Park.
He could've sold the photos...
instead of handing them to the cops, but he'll have gotten them.
That's what I'm worried about.
- The phone is turned off... - Oh?
He turned off his phone now?
What a nice hideout you have.
Hey.
How did you know of this place?
That's not what's important.
You should ask why I'm here.
It's to commend you.
Well done, Jegal.
Good job.
What are you up to?
This just came in. The credit card...
a national team coach used to place bets on sports matches...
was a company card given to...
the head of the Swimming Union.
Swimming Union head Jeon Chang Gil...
will face charges for appropriation of funds and embezzlement.
- Details... - You said you're no hound.
Sorry.
You did way too well.
Did you set this up to get rid of Jeon Chang Gil?
Jegal.
If you see 1 step ahead, I see 2 or 3 and set things up.
That's exactly why...
I have a gold medal and you have none.
The ability to take control of the whole match.
I have it and you don't.
A mental coach crossed the line and got directly involved.
That's grounds for dismissal.
I won't report it if you leave voluntarily.
The training center doesn't suit you.
This place suits you much better.
A place that reeks of loser spirit.
Dr. Park Seung Ha.
Did she call you?
You ask too many questions.
You must feel very upset.
Shall I make you feel worse?
The third move I foresaw. Do you want to know what it is?
Come in!
Kang San will paint the pretty picture for me.
I need you to make a special appearance.
In return,
you must keep your word that you'll...
get rid of Oh Dal Sung.
Moo Tae.
How come you...
I told you I needed the money.
Cha Moo Tae!
I told you!
That I can do anything...
to protect my sister.
How could you...
How could you do this to me?
There are also days like this.
When you're stabbed in the back...
by the one you trusted the most.
Being betrayed by someone you trusted.
You're never okay with it however many times...
it happens to you.
(Mental Coach Jegal)
Why are you acting so out of character, Moo Tae?
Tae Man is stronger than you.
Don't get involved in other people's lives.
Stay away from Ga Eul.
Oh Dal Sung will go.
Once you leave.
Will Mr. Oh lose his job?
Come whenever you need me.
Congratulations on your new company, Mr. Cha.
Sign your sister first.
I feel much better now.
This will be our last consultation.
