Original subtitles

That's it!

(Their first meeting,)

(first match,)

(and first play together)

(So they could still meet their "first loss" with a smile.)

(Coach Seo Jang Hoon is deep in thought at their second meeting.)

(We're going to train a bit harder today.)

Su Inn, start running!

Run!

(The real training begins for their best game yet.)

Go!

Good!

(They repeat the same mistakes.)

(What was that?)

Your legs are giving out already.

How are you going to play with that kind of stamina?

Honestly, you guys are a mess.

(Seo Jang Hoon has a bigger picture in mind.)

What are you guys doing?

I'm sorry to say this, but if you don't want to play, you can go home.

You know what I mean, right?

(The reason why Seo Jang Hoon is taking it so seriously)

We're not playing around with the Handsome Tigers.

We're going to compete in an amateur league...

with seven other teams,

and we've only called in the best.

They're amateur league champions,

including the champions from the salarymen's league.

We need to get on the level...

of the teams that are much more skilled than us.

I was confident...

that I could bring the team...

to a level that's close to the stronger teams,

and that's why I signed on as the coach.

This isn't a reality show,

but more like a documentary.

That's how serious we are about this.

("Because it's our first time" is a futile excuse.)

(The real basketball begins, for the team to conquer the nation!)

He jumps.

It goes in!

(We take our opponents down...)

(with our own unfaltering play.)

(Coach Seo Jang Hoon's basketball magic will take your breath away.)

(17 days until the league preliminaries)

Hello.

It's a very special day today.

- Hello! - Hello.

- You look very nice today. - Really?

- I wore a suit today. - What's going on today?

We've only seen the guys...

- sweating in their jerseys. - That's right.

But we'll get to see them...

dressed up very nicely, from head to toe.

They may blow you away.

- Really? - You'll be surprised...

to see them look completely different...

from the way you're used to seeing them.

Really?

What kind of occasion could it be?

They've been talking about how loyal you are, coming here today.

Me, loyal?

They're impressed by your loyalty.

- I came right after my concert, - Exactly.

as soon as I landed in Korea.

Where do you think we are?

I see them, over there!

(Where have they arrived?)

- What's going on today? - What?

I'm getting married again.

Come on!

Is that so?

Kim Seung Hyun,

one of the key players of the Handsome Tigers is...

Right.

getting married today.

Can you see him?

(It's Kim Seung Hyun's wedding day!)

(A day to congratulate...)

(the marriage between Kim Seung Hyun and Jang Jung Yoon)

- You look great today. - Hey.

This is how I usually look.

(They're all dressed up!)

Why am I the one who's feeling nervous?

Look at you, Tae Sun!

You look like a real actor!

You've only seen me...

- playing basketball. - Yes, you look like an actor now.

- Don't I? - Yes, you look great.

(Moon Su Inn, model Revisiting his forgotten day job)

(Groom: Kim Seung Hyun, firstborn)

Handsome Tigers!

- It's nice to see you. - Hello.

- Congratulations. - Congratulations, Seung Hyun.

You look great.

- Congratulations. - You look so handsome!

(The handsome new groom can't help feeling excited.)

This is our wedding photo.

Where was it taken?

- It was at Myeongdong Cathedral. - Is it photoshopped?

No, it's not.

So you were there in person.

Why would it be photoshopped?

- Because you're busy... - Give it to him.

- What is it? Give it to me. - Hang on!

- We can't... - You can't have it so easily.

We're not handing it over that easily.

Let's have you carry out a mission.

- You want me to do a mission? - Since the whole team is here.

One mission at a time.

- Is that why you guys are all here? - That's right.

- I'm going to pass you the ball. - Out of nowhere?

- I'll pass you the ball. - As you walk down the aisle.

But you'll have to show us something special.

What am I supposed to do?

- Have him do it one at a time. - You can do a dunk...

- A dunk sounds good. - Then you get all these.

(A mission to receive a stack of congratulatory money)

Enter the groom, Kim Seung Hyun!

(They even hold a reverent rehearsal.)

- He's taken it! - He's taken the ball.

Hut! Two, three, four...

(The dribble of love)

(Sang Yun joins them for the fun.)

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven...

Sang Yun, do I really have to do this?

- Look what they're making me do! - Look at this!

- Don't forget what's on the line! - Captain!

Do I really have to do this?

- You should do some more. - Geez.

Okay!

In addition to this,

promise to come to practice at least twice a week,

- starting next week. - Come to practice.

Let's make it three times a week.

- Three times is a bit... - At least two times.

- Two times, at least. - At least twice a week.

- At least twice a week. - Your eyes are wavering.

- How's that? - If not, you'll buy us dinner.

That's a good idea.

If I can't make it, I'll buy you fried chicken.

Let's have a word from our captain.

- All right. - Let's go, captain!

I'm still not married...

so I'm not really sure what I could say,

but...

I realized this while filming a drama recently,

that you shouldn't ever cheat.

- Be loyal to your wife. - You're right.

I will.

You and your wife should be able...

to talk to each other about anything.

- That's true love. - Best friends.

- Right. - That's right.

I saw that it leads to problems if it's not like that,

- I understand. - through indirect experience.

Nice.

I'll offer my words of blessing at your future wedding.

- Okay, sounds good. - Since you'll be next.

- I'll look forward to it. - Can you do it at my wedding, too?

Seon Ho, you still have a while.

- Let's marry Sang Yun off first. - You don't know that!

You never know what's going to happen.

That's true.

I appreciate you all for coming.

- Of course. - Congratulations.

We have to do this.

- Captain! - You look so handsome today.

No, the groom should do it.

Today,

- you're the star. - You should start us off.

When I say "Handsome", we'll all say "Congratulations!"

- Okay! - Let's go.

- Handsome! - Congratulations!

Thank you!

- Congratulations, Seung Hyun! - Thank you.

(Joy's camera has made it into the ceremony hall.)

- Keep an eye out on the mission. - There's a mission?

Yes, for Seung Hyun.

The ceremony will begin soon...

Shout it out!

I'm getting married!

That was great. It's too bad he's off the market now.

I'm so nervous!

I'm the one who's getting nervous!

- Here goes the mission. - It must be nerve-wracking.

- I'm sure the groom is nervous. - Seung Hyun seems so nervous.

- He's making me nervous. - I'm getting even more nervous.

Here comes the groom!

Seung Hyun! Let's go!

(He bounces the ball of the game he loves...)

(to go meet the love of his life.)

He continues down the aisle.

(We wish you happiness!)

Sang Yun is the only one who's still single.

When are you going to get married?

It's not that I don't want to. I just haven't been able to.

Congratulations!

I declare you husband and wife,

in front of everyone who's here to give their blessing.

All right.

(Our team play has already begun.)

(17 days until the league preliminaries)

(44 days before the preliminary round)

(At 10 o'clock, after their first match with Whimoon Middle School)

(In the empty courts,)

(Coach Seo Jang Hoon is lost in thought.)

(Then suddenly walks in...)

(Eun Woo?)

Great work today.

Have a seat.

It was a tough game, wasn't it?

It was.

It's not easy to play again when you haven't played in so long.

It was way too hard and scary.

Why are you still here?

I wanted to do a few more shots before going home.

- You want to practice a bit more? - Yes.

(He had missed...)

(many chances to score, right in front of his eyes.)

(On the court,)

(as well as in the locker room,)

(his conscience was never at ease.)

(The results were clear.)

(Cha Eun Woo: 0 points)

You want to practice a bit more?

- Could you teach me... - Then let me...

Come here. Since you're here,

- I'll teach you a few things. - Thank you.

Come over here.

(A spur-of-the-moment lesson by the national treasure of players)

Throw a shoot.

(Sigh)

That was good.

Very nice.

Your shooting isn't bad at all.

You're doing it right.

But watch.

Your arms are a bit far apart from each other.

(A significant distance between his elbows)

It doesn't matter, but your left hand...

My left hand?

What does the left hand do?

- The left hand is only a guide. - It's only a guide.

If your left hand gets too involved,

the ball won't go as straight as you want it to.

You want to keep it...

as a guide that just keeps the ball in place,

and draw an arc in your head.

Just leave the left hand alone and shoot...

(The arc in his head misses the goal!)

It's been a while since I've thrown a shot.

Bend your knees to get the ball even further.

(Advice about using the knees following the left hand)

Geez!

(Damage to the national treasure from a six-year hiatus)

(Do your work, knees!)

It's been so long since I've done this.

That's how you do it.

(Eun Woo's arms are apart, Jang Hoon's are close together.)

(The left hand is just a guide.)

(A model demonstration of the ideal form)

Do you see what I mean?

This hand stays still,

and you don't need a lot of strength.

Try it again.

All right.

Since you're right-handed, your right foot has...

to be in the front.

(He steps his right foot slightly forward.)

That's it. Spread your legs...

slightly further apart.

That's it. Then...

- this is where you should look. - All right.

You see the rim? The back part of it?

Yes, I see it.

Imagine that you're trying to hit the back part of it.

Bend the knees...

Look at the back of the rim and aim the ball toward it.

Okay! That's it.

If you imagine hitting the back, that's where it'll end up naturally.

Bend the knees...

That's it.

If you keep this feeling in mind...

and keep practicing,

you'll start getting it in naturally every time.

- Do you understand? - Yes, I think I get it.

(Even a three-pointer is...)

(a piece of cake.)

(Teacher Seo Jang Hoon, a national treasure)

Do you get it now? That's good for the shooting.

Now, dribble the ball from the back and do a lay-up.

All right.

(He'd missed many lay-up opportunities in an open setting.)

Your lay-up is great. I was watching you,

and your footwork is also good, but watch.

You came up here nicely,

but shot the ball from here.

(Eun Woo's lay-up begins at a relatively low point.)

I say that because... Go ahead.

- If you shoot from the bottom... - Right.

(What happens if you shoot early)

If the ball is too low,

even if your opponent is shorter and arrives later,

he can knock the ball away.

But if you've already jumped up, he can't knock it out of your hands.

- Try shooting from the top. - All right. From the top.

Get the ball up here, using both hands.

- I should get it higher, right? - Right.

That's it!

That's it! That's much better than before.

- Get it up higher. - All right.

(Great advice)

(Great execution)

Good!

- Do you understand now? - I do.

- Bring the ball up high, - Right.

- and let go at a lower point. - That's right.

Let's try this now.

Plant both feet on the ground,

step one foot forward, then dribble the ball.

And then do a lay-up.

- Okay? - Okay.

This is the most important thing for a basketball player.

Mark me.

It's the first step out.

(The first step before dribbling)

How fast you do this is key.

If I do this, you'll try to block it.

As he's still looking up, you step right out.

Whoever knows how to do this first step well is a good player.

Take it.

You stepped around me by this much.

You stepped around too far.

What's more advantageous? Going around, or going straight through?

- Going through, right? - Going through.

- You can bump into me. - All right.

That's it.

(He takes the first step out closer to the marker.)

Geez.

(Stepping out close to the marker, going around the marker)

That's it.

(A 1cm could make all the difference.)

Very nice.

If you can keep this up, you'll be fine.

(Coach Seo Jang Hoon's invaluable lesson)

Nice!

Bring the ball up, don't lower it.

Bring the ball up.

(Eun Woo's quick adaptations make a happy coach.)

Very nice!

(Episode 2 Real basketball begins now.)

(43 days until the league preliminaries)

(The day of the Handsome Tigers' first official training session)

It'll be held here every day at 4 o'clock.

(Two hours before practice)

(Who is the early bird...)

(to make it to practice first?)

(A cute compact car)

(In a spacious parking spot...)

(arrives a slippered foot.)

(The highest-scoring star player, Moon Su Inn)

Are you going to use this footage?

It's a bit embarrassing.

He shoots!

He shoots it back in and it goes in!

(30 points, 9 rebounds)

(He swept the court with his agile movements.)

I couldn't fall asleep last night.

My heart was still beating so fast when I got home.

I couldn't stop thinking about the game,

so I didn't sleep very well.

(The adrenaline from the game is still fresh in his mind,)

(and he's the first one to arrive back at the court.)

Hello.

(The cheers from the night before...)

(and the excitement of today is...)

(what keeps him running across the court.)

(He starts out with a light warm-up.)

- Hello! - Hi, Seon Ho!

Aren't you sore?

I guess everyone's sore today.

- I'm... - Yes.

- a bit sore, but I'm fine. - It's because you're young.

- It must be because I'm young. - Age sure makes a difference.

(Seon Ho gets right to practice, thanks to his speedy recovery.)

You're close to reaching the rim.

He can reach it?

Last night, when he was making rebounds,

I noticed that he can really jump.

Can you try grabbing the rim?

- Right now? - Yes.

I'll give it a try.

You can touch the rim?

(Yoo Seon Ho, age 19, 181cm)

(Not too tall for a basketball player)

(He flies up like a butterfly,)

(and stings like a bee.)

You might be able to do a slam dunk.

It seems like...

- I'm doing even better... - You're better than last night.

It's even better than last night.

(Eun Woo comes as soon as he was done with his itinerary.)

It's five minutes until the start.

It'd be so nice to practice here every day, like professionals.

Right.

(The entire team has returned to the court.)

It feels like we're real basketball players...

for the day.

- We are. - That's right, we are.

We're real players for the time being.

- We get to play on this court, too. - That's right.

What's this? That's the mic.

How are you feeling?

It's kind of...

- Are you sure? - Yes, I'm sore.

We can't underestimate the middle school players.

My body felt so heavy when I woke up.

You can't already be sore at that age!

- Aren't I right? - I know, but I felt sore.

(The whole team is...)

(back on the court with their sore muscles.)

Hello, everyone!

Hello!

We'll have a lot of work to do,

- more than you think we do. - I see.

It'll just be you and me.

- There won't even be a coach. - I see.

- We... - We won't have a coach, either?

We're the coaches ourselves.

- I'm the coach? - You're the coach and assistant.

Some players may...

also break down along the way.

- They'll be disappointed... - That's right.

and blame themselves for being bad.

Some of them may be hurt that they didn't get...

a lot of time on the court.

- You'll have to take care... - Take care of their mentalities?

of their mentalities.

- You'll have to keep them in check. - All right.

I was born in the morning, in the year of the rat,

so they say that I'm very aware of my surroundings.

So I'm quite good...

at scoping out my surroundings and reading the situation.

- Great, you're perfect for the job. - Yes,

- I'll be among the Tigers... - That's right.

- as a rat. - All right. That's great.

Today is the first day...

of your official training period.

So before Coach Seo Jang Hoon arrives,

I thought we could do a light stretch together.

- Let's get started. - Sounds good.

- That sounds great. - Great idea.

All right, guys.

I'm going to show you some stretches...

that I do to warm up before dance practice.

- She's so pretty. - Never-before-seen.

There's a fast song and a slow song. Which one do you want to do first?

- The slow song! - The slow one!

Preferably the slower song.

- We can't keep up if it's fast. - We can't do it if it's fast.

They're just different songs.

How about a slow song that speeds up later?

There is no such thing.

Then could you play the fast song?

- I'm a poor dancer. - This is the song.

Let's jump first.

It's a new jack swing.

It is a new jack swing.

Please turn it louder.

Jump, jump.

This song is Showry's style.

(It's like a rhythmical dribble.)

So all I do is jump?

We're going to lift your shoulders.

(Shoulder stretching)

And 2, 3, 4.

(Is this how you do it?)

(No, it's like this.)

In 2, 3, 4.

This is what we're going to do.

(This move develops your shoulder and waist flexibility.)

(People start to fail at following)

I can't do this.

Isn't this a wave?

What is this?

(National gymnastics)

It's a bit hard.

Next, we'll do the chest.

One.

Two.

Three.

- Four. - This is hard.

(Squirm)

The waist.

(Body movement resembling Joker)

You're not sick, are you?

- You look sick. - I am.

(It's supposed to look like this.)

How do you twist like that?

Is the chest hard to do?

It's fun.

Is it?

Julien, this isn't a club.

We're here to dance.

(Excited person 1, excited person 2)

(I love it.)

I love this.

I love dancing.

It relieves my stress.

(Laugh all you want...)

(while you still can.)

(Now, it's time to play real basketball.)

(The completion...)

(of basketball is...)

(training.)

(I won't let you off easy just because you're handsome.)

Now, gather around.

- Did you sweat? - Yes.

- We're killing it. - How was it yesterday?

It was hard.

- Was it? - It was hard.

- I slept so well. - We were busy.

- I slept well. - It was hard in the morning.

Honestly, we have such a long way to go.

Right.

Also, we have a short amount of time.

We don't have many days to train.

(D-43 until the national competition)

You need to forget what we did yesterday and start afresh.

(Basketball reset)

From today,

we'll train intensely.

(We're going to train hard.)

(Real training)

First,

(First)

we're going to measure your physical strength.

- Physical strength. - Physical strength?

I'm more worried about their physical strength than ability.

You need to have the strength to run for 40 minutes.

As long as...

you have the strength, I'm confident they'll win.

I'll try to be in the top three in terms of physical strength.

Good. Great.

My father...

completed 42.195 km a hundred times.

- Really? - It was in the newspaper.

I'm his son.

I'm confident at physical strength.

- Really? - Yes, I'm an Iron Man.

Iron Man Cha Eun Woo.

(Iron Man Cha Eun Woo)

Joy will measure your physical strength.

Yes, sir.

First I'll measure long-distance running.

(We're going to be doing a long-distance running.)

(Best fit for endurance measurement)

(I thought you're good at running?)

Oh, no.

Everyone is going to run ten laps...

and I'm going to record your time.

(They will be ranking ten people.)

If you see here, there are four cones.

You have to run the outer circle of these cones.

- Yes. - We got it.

In basketball, running fast is important,

but running longer is more important.

- Do your best in running. Okay. - Yes, sir.

- Are you ready? - Yes.

(Which tiger will be the first?)

Ready.

(Go!)

- Faster. - Isn't this too fast?

- Faster. - What do you mean faster?

We're running fast already.

(Running 1st Yoo Seon ho and 2nd Cha Eun Woo)

Seon Ho.

(First in line are Seon Ho and Eun Woo.)

- Why are you running so fast? - They are good.

Run faster.

(Top and bottom group formed in one lap)

(Last Seo Ji Suk, first Yoo Seon Ho, second Cha Eun Woo)

(Fifth lap)

(Last Seo Ji Suk, 1st Yoo Seon Ho, 2nd Cha Eun Woo)

Sixth lap.

(Ji Suk is one lap behind.)

(He said he's confident with his physical strength.)

I'll try to be in the top three in terms of physical strength.

(Third Moon Su Inn)

(Good basketball players are good runners.)

(The 1st Yoo Seon Ho, 2nd Cha Eun Woo, 3rd Moon Su Inn)

(Su Inn spurts.)

(Having good manners, he cheers for others.)

(Moon Su Inn overtakes number one.)

(The 1st Moon Su Inn, 2nd Cha Eun Woo, 3rd Yoo Seon Ho)

(Lead group, YB trio)

(The 1st Moon Su Inn, 2nd Cha Eun Woo,3rd Yoo Seon Ho)

(Last lap)

You came in 2:48 seconds.

You came in 2:51 seconds and 2:52 seconds.

You came in 2:53 seconds.

(The 1st Moon Su Inn, 2nd Cha Eun Woo, 3rd Yoo Seon Ho)

- You came in 3 minutes. - It's like a fitness test.

You came in 3:02 seconds.

(At least, I'm in the middle.)

You came in 3:06 seconds.

(The 4th Julien Kang, 5th Lee Sang Yun, 6th Showry)

Hey, Showry.

I thought you said you're a good runner.

I must've gone down a bit.

It's not by just a bit, you're in the latter half.

How can you be slower than Sang Yun?

All right.

- I'll improve. - What?

You came in 3:39 seconds.

(Ninth Lee Tae Sun)

(Ji Suk's still running.)

(Tenth Seo Ji Suk)

(Seo Ji Suk is the lowest rank in long-distance running.)

Who told you guys to sit? Stand up.

It has become a habit.

- Stand up. - Stand up.

Take your breath while standing.

Come over here, everyone.

(We've just scratched the surface.)

I think we depleted physical strength.

My legs are wobbly.

- Now, we'll do a sprint running. - Yes.

- Why are you so evil? - Evil?

You were so nice and cute yesterday.

Today, I think I see horns on your head.

(She gets them to do everything while smiling.)

(Agility measurement, sprint running)

They are good runners. Really.

Seung Hyun.

When young boys run,

I can actually hear the wind.

Ready.

(Shuttle run, measuring the ability to change direction)

(Attack and defense are always interchanged in basketball.)

(Quick redirection is the key point.)

I'm so tired.

This is hard.

(They are gradually running out of breath.)

Now basically we just had a fitness test.

But the shocking thing is...

Eun Woo, Seon Ho,

Julien, and Su Inn have...

been managing their bodies pretty well.

That's what I think.

Ji Suk, are you okay?

If you want to show them something, you have to have the body for it.

Your body's...

just not ready.

Your body can't manage it, so it's hard.

You can't play the game as you'd like, so you'll get annoyed.

(If you can't build strength, you can't play the game.)

Showry.

(Showry's position, point guard)

Showry.

You have to play point guard.

But you can't run...

as much as others.

You need to work on running.

Next, Seung Hyun, Sang Yun, and Kyung Jun.

I get that you're old.

But looking at your sprint records,

you guys need to run more.

The three of you need to do that, okay?

We're going to do this again before the competition.

If there's no improvement by then,

it'll be...

a very difficult situation.

I'll let you play based on the results.

I want you to train more. Okay.

Now, we're done measuring.

It's the end line.

Now,

Su Inn and Julien come out to the center of the court.

What about Kyung Jun and me?

Su Inn, run.

(Just run!)

Run.

Run in the middle.

In the middle of the line.

(Su Inn starts to run without knowing why.)

Run.

(He instinctively adapts.)

Julien, run in the middle.

In the middle.

(Big man sprints to the middle.)

(If he comes near, he throws again.)

(If he comes near, he throws again.)

Okay.

Now,

Sang Yun.

You start from the sideline.

Run along the sideline...

to that corner over there.

(How come I have to run longer?)

Go!

- Like this? - Faster. Are you kidding me?

(He's sort of sprinting.)

(Slow)

I said faster! Are you kidding me?

(Breathing ASMR)

What are you doing?

- Here? - Where are you looking?

(He passes the ball as soon as he reaches the sideline.)

Do it again, hurry.

(No mercy, do it again)

Go!

What am I doing?

Go!

(He runs outer skirts of the sideline.)

Where are you going? Do it again.

Who runs outside the court?

Why would you go off the court? This isn't soccer.

(What kind of training is this?

- What are we doing? - We're training and shooting.

- One the side... - I thought we don't shoot.

Did I had to shoot?

He wants us to throw the ball.

(Now I understand.)

Where are you looking at? Quickly!

To here.

Shoot!

- From here? - Hey, do it again. What was that?

(Concentrate until the end!)

- Now, go! - Why all of a sudden?

Now...

(Adequate sprinting)

- Quickly. - Three-point line.

(After reaching the three-point line,)

(he makes a hasty shoot.)

(Clean continuous movement)

Okay. Go!

(Nice, Eun Woo.)

If you shoot from the outside, it doesn't matter if it goes in.

(It's No. 23, Ji Suk's turn.)

Shoot.

(He sees the fake pass but still makes a clean shot.)

- Nice. - Good.

(Complying with line)

Cut.

(Cut in)

Good. Go!

(Seung Hyun quickly succeeds.)

You have to adapt to this. Go.

(If I fail now, I have to run three laps alone.)

(We hope you pass safely.)

Do it again.

You look like you're going on a walk, grandpa.

You're like grandpa walking. Go.

Good. Good.

(While everyone else is...)

(killing it,)

(he gets envious.)

(He's the last one standing after everyone had passed.)

Next.

Quickly, quickly.

- Quickly. - This is as fast as I can.

- Faster. - This is the fastest speed!

Now.

(Goodness.)

(Faster!)

(Faking RPM)

Stop there.

- Good. - Shoot!

It's three-point shoot.

(Groan)

(Is this the real basketball of an expert?)

- I think he did it five times. - Gosh.

Hold on, everyone.

We did this once.

We only did this once, right?

If you want this to stick with you,

you need to do this 20 times a day.

Let's do this once more.

Oh, my gosh.

I keep laughing because it's so hard.

Goodness.

(While everyone's concentrated on training,)

(Joy observes the players carefully.)

(Assistant is trying to find something to do.)

(Standing up)

Do you have a camera?

A camera.

(What are you doing with a camera?)

After the fitness test, Coach and the players are...

busily training.

Let me show you what they are doing.

(An omniscient assistant, Joy-log)

Coach is scarier than I thought.

I can see Showry and Cha Eun Woo.

Also, Yoo Seon Ho.

Julien Kang has...

a good physique.

He looks like Zeus...

from Greek, Rome mythology.

Maybe it's because this is the first training,

I can see that they're nervous.

The last session would've been hard too.

Today is the first day...

and it's too...

hectic. That's what I think.

It's a bit...

(Subtitle will take a break for a second.)

I'm looking for something to do.

They are all concentrating on training.

So I think it's my job...

to record what they are training.

Yes.

Now, Julien. Come to the middle.

(What are...)

(we practicing this time?)

- Come quickly when I call you. - Hurry.

And next, Sang Yun.

Eun Woo, Seon Ho, come here.

(Placement by position in Coach Seo's head)

What we're going to do...

It's really important, so concentrate.

(Concentrate, everyone)

I'm going to throw the ball.

Julien will catch the rebound.

He catches it, right?

As soon as he catches the ball, you...

and Sang Yun have to run without looking.

- Do you remember the way? - Yes.

And if you have some time left over, change your position.

- If you don't, stay. - Okay.

- Isn't this 2:3? - It's a fast break.

It's the fast break patterns.

(During the first game, their fast break play was lacking.)

So 5:4 is better than 5:5,

and 5:3 is better than 5:4.

They don't have the skills...

to compete with their opponent.

So for us, fast break training is very important.

The two of you...

(Forward will sprint the sideline)

So you caught the rebound.

Eun Woo will be watching out.

It's called mid-out in English.

- Mid-out. - When he gets the ball,

you can't see it. Come out to where you can see it.

Grab the ball by coming right up to the ball.

- Okay? - Yes, sir.

If you go too far,

- can you pass the ball? - No.

You have to come over too.

You have to look at him.

Gosh, I'm tired.

Look at him. He doesn't have the ball yet.

As soon as you get the ball, you have to run.

(Fast step as soon as you catch the ball)

- Okay? - Yes, sir.

With this step, you can overtake at least two defense.

Goodness.

Hey, Coach.

You should do a fitness test, Coach.

Let's do a fitness test for Coach.

You're sweating.

Why don't we stop here and do a fitness test for Coach?

I'm the last in the fitness test.

Let's go.

Let's go.

(Fast break training starts!)

(Big man, Julien Kang's rebounding)

(And a mid-out as learned.)

- Here. - Pass!

(Forward runs as soon as rebound.)

(A sudden change of direction)

Kim Seung Hyun, out.

(Kim Seung Hyun's out.)

(What did I do wrong?)

What are you doing, Seung Hyun?

- I don't know. - Where did I tell you to go?

- Where did I tell you to go? - Straight.

I told you to go to the corner. We've done this before.

What was our plan again?

(Along the sideline)

You take a glance...

and go if no one's coming.

(Just like the running and shooting course)

I taught you this.

When did I ever tell you...

that it was okay...

to only run this much if you're tired?

There are five people here already.

I need to go to the end.

Let's go to the next one.

It's a shot.

Go!

(The start is late...)

(so he fell while trying to catch it.)

I'm fine.

You're too slow.

Both of the wings are too slow.

(He's running the best he can, but the speed still isn't enough.)

You're too slow that we are about to give up the fast break.

Rebound.

Let's keep running.

You seem like you want to keep running.

(The fast break isn't easy.)

You should...

(Is there a change of tactics? Whispering)

(Is he changing the strategy?)

All right.

(After the rebound, he throws the ball abruptly.)

(He passes the ball without a mid-out...)

(to Sang Yun who is running at full speed.)

Go faster.

Don't hesitate.

Don't try to adjust yourself to the ball pass,

but run with all your might.

- The passer adjusts to the runner. - I got it.

If I got the ball here,

just pass it to the front.

(Pass the ball to an empty space.)

- Got it? - Wow.

- You don't need to slow down. - Okay.

Don't hesitate on what you'll do over there.

Just run.

- Yes. - The pass will be made by Julien.

- Did you get that? - Yes.

Rebound.

Go.

That was good.

(The ball came flying exactly to space.)

(Nice pass)

(Running forward at full speed)

(Is it another pass?)

You shouldn’t' have given it away.

- The pass was a bit short. - You should've caught it.

We don't have that time.

Do it again.

Hurry up.

Rebound.

(He's running today a month's worth of running.)

Get the rebound.

(The ball is passed directly to Sang Yun again.)

Pass it. That should've been a pass.

Okay, that was good.

Let's do it again.

Do it again. Hurry up.

Sang Yun is having a hard time.

Go.

Look at Sang Yoon.

That was good.

(A success in the swift attack within two passes)

Good job.

Let's go to the next one.

It's difficult to be a guard.

I'm so done.

- The center should fight too. - That's right.

Nothing is easy.

Would you like some?

I need some now.

You'll be full if you drink a lot.

(Hard training has started.)

Hurry up.

There's no time to laugh around.

The forward is doing well.

- Hey. - That was good.

- That's good. - That was a nice pass.

(The fast break attack begins.)

Get here quick.

(The forward lines are running with all their might.)

- That was good. - That was a nice pass.

(A killer pass by Su Inn)

That was very good. Oh, no!

Seo Ji Suk.

(You should've ended it.)

All right,

if you get the ball around this corner,

you have to solve it by yourselves no matter what.

- Yes. - Okay?

Yes, sir.

- Don't pass it. - Got it.

You can't give it anyway.

Have you seen anyone making a pass here in any game?

Are you tired?

- Are you tired? - I'm tired because of you.

- Why is it because of me? - Why did you give us a hard test?

You did it on purpose, didn't you?

Do you want us to be in agony?

The coach was the one who made the pass.

But he asks me why I didn't do a layup.

It's the same even now.

(The assistant's job is to manage the players' mental conditions.)

- Excuse me. - Yes.

I have an urgent suggestion.

Please do a physical test on Coach after this is done.

That sounds good.

(He' sweating a lot.)

(Breathing ASMR)

All right.

Let's take a one-minute break.

Drink some water.

I'm hungry.

Why is he making the old people do the hard job, Sang Yun?

I think this is why we grow farther away from Coach.

- Why is he making... - Am I not right?

We can stay together but we're going farther apart.

- You're doing it intensely. - I'm sweating.

It's my first time in a while...

to sweat this much.

I'm tired. I need to work out too.

The players seem like they are having a hard time.

They actually shouldn't be tired of this.

- Really? - When they actually...

start playing the game for 40 minutes,

they shouldn't be tired by this.

Please give me the vest.

It's our training jersey.

(Showing off the jersey)

How do you like it?

It's pretty.

It looks good on you.

Thank you.

I feel like I've become an athlete.

I feel like I'm about to join the major league.

We now have a uniform that has our name on it.

- It's cool. - It's double-sided.

- How do you like it, Eun Woo? - I like it too.

I'm satisfied.

I didn't have any opportunity to work out like this,

but I'm sweating with all the other guys.

It's a bit difficult, but I like it.

What was that?

Oh, no.

(They play well even only with a ball.)

- How hard is it? - The center here...

If I were to rate it out of ten,

I think it's around 7 or 8.

But it's a different kind of work from a concert.

That's true.

I hope you join us in playing.

How's your basketball skill?

- Are you talking about Eun Woo? - No.

- Are you asking about me? - I'm asking you.

Try making a free throw.

- You played in middle school. - I've only tried for a short time.

Let's see our assistant's skills.

- Change your clothes. - What are you talking about?

- I'll shoot this from now on. - No.

Go show us a free throw.

- You have to. - Try it like this.

- I think it's better this way. - Did you mean this way?

Come on, show us.

Make three points with one throw.

(One shot, one kill)

This is it!

You did it. That was good.

It'll be hard.

You've found your show.

- Let's go. - Coach is here.

Go back to your positions.

- Give me the ball. - That was nice.

Let's stand with 1 person here and 2 over there.

Spread out.

(What is this training?)

We don't usually do patterns on your first day.

But we're busy.

(What is a pattern?)

(Players lost their balls during slow attacks.)

People say Moon Su Inn is our team's ace.

On the other hand,

other teams that are joining in this competition have...

five people like Moon Su Inn on their teams.

It's very important to have a planned play...

to fight against those teams.

We're busy.

We don't have enough time, so we'll try only two easy ones.

Let's call it the "thumb."

We'll call it this way.

- Was it called Dumb? - Did you get that?

We're calling it "thumb."

Is it a double?

If I raise my thumb,

(Staring blankly)

you walk over here.

Walk over there.

Make a screen.

Walk and make a screen.

Go.

Ji Suk will...

come here at first.

(Making a screen for Julien to enter)

(And Julien makes a screen for Sang Yun to move.)

(After moving,)

(Sang Yun will shoot immediately if there's an open chance.)

(If it's blocked by defense,)

(he will pass to Julien.)

Okay.

- Did you get that? - Yes.

(A tactic to make a shooting chance for the forward player)

Eun Woo will start dribbling over there...

and give the ball to Sang Yun.

Hurry up.

Did you get that?

(Trying to understand it with all their might)

Make a thumb.

Make a screen!

- What's happening? - Make a cross.

What's going on?

You should go to the back.

- Oh, right. - Make a cross.

(Going back to his place without looking)

(Nobody knows where their place is.)

You should go to the back.

- Make a cross. - Go on to the back.

Focus, everyone.

Let's concentrate.

- You all look like... - You go over to the back.

Even high school kids in a basketball club get...

this better than you.

Get ready. It's just the same.

- Go! - Make a thumb.

(They start the thumb tactic again.)

- Go. - It's a thumb.

(After Eun Woo's call sign,)

(Julien makes a screen.)

(After Sang Yun's move,)

(Eun Woo passes in timing.)

(That's right.)

(Is Sang Yun hurling the ball to the center?)

Oh, my!

Lee Sang Yun.

I'm sorry.

- I couldn't hear him. - In your opinion,

what do you think went wrong?

I started late.

That's completely wrong.

You hurled the pass randomly.

I told you to wait. Why is everyone in a hurry?

(He should've passed when the center finds his position.)

(Is this tactic a bit too much?)

Gosh.

(It's a tactic training that no one has tried before.)

(Everyone is having a difficult time learning it.)

(The coach is thinking hard.)

(The players are in deep thought too.)

(The tactic training is not easy because no one had tried it before.)

(The coach is thinking hard.)

(The players are in deep thought too.)

You can do it.

- All right. - We can do it.

Come on, let's focus.

Let's relax and do it slowly.

Look here, Eun Woo.

What do you have to do to keep the ball?

(Giving a tip to Eun Woo who needs to do ball keeping)

Try taking the ball.

You'll never get the ball.

- I'm telling you to take the ball. - But you're...

They will never be able to take the ball.

Showry.

(An unexpected exit)

Use your body,

all right?

If a defense comes at you,

they can't take it no matter how hard they try...

if you use your body.

- Did you get that? - That was a good posture.

- That was cool. - You did it.

So...

Shall we?

Go!

It's a thumb.

(After his call sign,)

(Julien moves over.)

(It is perfect as Sang Yun takes over.)

(A perfect open chance)

It's a chance.

(This is a chance.)

- Shoot! - It's a chance.

- It's a chance. - Shoot!

(Staring blankly)

The no-mark was a bit too much.

(Patience)

- That was good. - I went too much.

We're doing this to make a chance.

- I'm sorry. - There isn't anyone here.

- I'm sorry. - We can do it.

- Do it again. - Let's focus.

Your arms might hurt. You can stop filming now.

- You can stop filming. - Coach,

what time will our training end?

- We need to do a bit more. - Okay.

But I'm frustrated...

because we're not making progress.

- Isn't it too difficult? - Do it again.

It's not difficult at all.

This is the most basic of all.

Guys,

if you're only going to come out, throw a few balls,

and learn a few plays,

you can't play a basketball game.

All the other teams are strong.

(The atmosphere turns cold in an instant.)

It was a new pattern,

and we weren't used to it.

But I think...

some of us lost some concentration.

Because we lacked stamina,

our mental state was decreasing and our mind was going blank.

It felt like we became fools,

asking where we should be going.

Because we kept repeating it,

I was losing my concentration.

We also saw a lot of chances,

and we kept making mistakes.

He seemed different than how he appeared in other shows.

It felt...

as if he was really the coach of a professional team.

His eyes looked different.

- Let's do it again. - Come on.

We can do it.

(Let's try it again.)

I'm tired.

Julien,

you need to wait until I make it to the screen.

- It would be of no use. - You weren't coming.

The two of you should plan it.

Please earn me some time.

Julien and Su Inn should work on it together.

You weren't coming sometimes.

- Okay, I got it. - I'll wait for you.

Let's go!

- Let's focus. - Let's try it again.

(Everyone has to become one. This is the true meaning of a team.)

Go.

Thumb!

(Number 32 Julien Kang and Number 23 Seo Ji Suk)

(The connecting motions have become more natural.)

- Let's go. - Good shot.

(Another open chance)

- That was great. - Nice!

(Nice shot!)

That was good!

That was just amazing.

That was beyond words.

(First success of thumb tactic because the teamwork was perfect)

You're taking almost an hour...

to complete this easy task.

Imagine how far we have to go.

- Am I right? Go drink some water. - Yes.

- Thank you. - No, don't drink the water yet.

Let's change the team.

(Doing the thumb tactic again because the white team didn't)

Do it the opposite way.

You've seen it all together.

- You've seen it, haven't you? - Yes.

- Where do I stand? - Now,

Who am I taking?

this is a test of concentration.

If you can't do this the same way...

I'm over here.

- No, you're not. - You're supposed to do the play.

Who's on the side?

I'm supposed to be over here.

Who's doing Sang Yun's role?

It's you.

- Am I in middle? - It's from this way.

- Are you okay? - Watch them come.

Who's taking Sang Yun's role?

- We need another person here. - Let's go over.

Kim Seung Hyun,

- if you don't focus, - You should come here.

shall we just send Kim Seung Hyun to his honeymoon?

What are you doing? What have you been doing?

I told you to change teams.

- Where were you until now? - I was over here.

Is it that difficult to change from this one to another?

No, sir.

Is it that hard for you to change from this position to this?

- Let's focus. - Yes.

- Seung Hyung can... - Take a look here.

You saw how the other person moved during your defense.

If you didn't, that means you were only following half-halfheartedly.

- Am I wrong? - You're right.

You've seen how the other person moved.

Didn't you get it?

Go home if you're going to joke around.

- All right? - Hold on...

Go home if you're not going to focus.

(Concentration is what's needed most in this complicated situation.)

- Do it. - Make a screen.

Let's go.

Thumb!

That's not it.

- Thumb! - Hey, it's a thumb.

- That's not it. - Hey.

Seung Hyun should come over here.

It's a screen.

(Wrong position)

Seung Hyun should come over here.

How did you do the screen now?

I did it like this.

- You need to go around here. - Do it like this.

(He feels bad because he wants to do well.)

(Careful Agony)

It's a mess because many people don't know...

the method to do the basic pattern.

All right.

The blue team will play offense,

and the white team will be a defense.

If the players...

on the white team do not focus like this,

I'm only going to make you play defense.

Look carefully.

You're playing defense even now.

Remember that the person in front is going your way...

and concentrate.

Seo Ji Suk will stand here.

Moon Su Inn will stand...

on the free-throw line.

Julien will go to the row.

Eun Woo will go to the corner over there.

Sang Yun, go to the opposite row.

Let's call this...

the V tactic.

It's a V.

IT's a V, everyone.

This one's a V.

Su Inn will come over to me, and Eun Woo will...

screen on Sang Yun.

Go right away.

Take one glance.

Do it again. Make a V.

(If both sides are on a screen...)

(Ji Suk and Sang Yun will be open at the same time.)

(Pass the ball if Sang Yun is an open chance.)

(Break through and shoot if Ji Suk is open.)

Look at your defense...

and go to the second person.

Pass it if it's empty.

- All right? - Yes.

- Did you all get it? - Yes.

- Play offense. - Go.

It's a V.

(An open chance to Ji Suk)

(Ending it directly after a quick decision)

Eun Woo, where are you looking?

Where are you facing? What's next?

Ji Suk is coming over here.

Don't block,

but enter together to make a rebound.

- Okay? - Yes.

- Let's do it again. - We need to make a screen.

- Yes. - Go to the back.

- Third! - V on the third!

V!

(After Eun Woo's screening,)

(Sang Yun gets an open chance.)

(This time he calmly makes a bounce pass.)

- Good. - Is he going to catch it?

Good.

(The ball drops.)

You have to shoot!

That's it.

What happened? It drops right in front, doesn't it?

Yes.

You weren't expecting it...

but it dropped right in front of you...

as if a chestnut falls from the tree.

- That's what happens. - Yes.

That's how you have to maintain the spacing.

Focus! Let's switch up.

Switch up with the white.

- Make a V just like last time. - He wouldn't admit it.

V!

Now, V!

Good!

(He quickly grasps the situation...)

(and dashes into an open space without hesitation.)

(Good!)

That was the best.

- I mean it. - Yes. Thank you.

That was much better than Seo Ji Suk.

- The coach favors Eun Woo... - That was much better...

- and Seon Ho. - than Seo Ji Suk.

- He loves them. - This is...

what I've been talking about for the hundredth time!

He stayed focused and dashed in when there was an opening.

- Make sure to block him. - Okay.

Let's block him.

Even our youngest, the highschooler understands but no one else does.

- Make a V again. - We're defending.

- Yes. - Block him!

Now, V!

- On the left. - Now, V!.

On the left.

(Get through if you can.)

(A cool pass)

(Once again, he checks the space...)

(and precisely passes to Tae Sun.)

(Tae Sun's neat finish)

(No doubt it's the younger member's line.)

No doubt it's the younger members.

(Tae Sun did a great job.)

You did so well.

Let's not let them score.

(The players get used to the thumb and V as they have fun.)

If you can just properly...

master this alone,

you could toy around...

with any team that doesn't have good teamwork.

Julien, over here.

Su Inn, over here.

Kim Seung Hyun,

- We're finally playing. - Kang Kyung Jun,

Lee Sang Yun, here.

Seo Ji Suk.

We'll play a 5:5 for 7 minutes each...

on the first and second half.

How do we do thumb?

How did thumb work?

Next time we see,

we have a match scheduled with another strong team.

Okay.

The team who wins here...

will be on the starting lineup...

on that day.

They will be on the starting lineup...

and the team that wins here will play much more on that day.

(Is this the beginning of an unlimited competition?)

We must win at all costs then.

I will give...

three minutes to each team.

For defense, take Julien

and he takes Seung Hyun.

I'll take Showry.

- Should I take Seung Hyun? - Yes.

Then you should take one and Showry should take two.

Man-to-man.

I take Su Inn.

Okay.

(They are getting competitive.)

And...

- since we're on the same team, - Let's not get hurt.

It will be a big problem if anyone gets hurt.

You worry me the most.

What are you talking about?

You got hurt by Ji Suk earlier on.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about you.

We'll start.

Watch Showry. Find your man.

- Defend. - Push them.

Now, V!

V!

- On the other side. - Again.

(He screens the other way around.)

(He has to break through on his own.)

Go!

(Blue's chance for a fast break)

- Nice shot. - Nice.

(Cha Eun Woo makes the first score through a fast break.)

(It is worth teaching him the lay-up.)

Good!

(He perfectly performed Coach Seo's fast break strategy.)

Nice shot.

- There's Showry. - Over here!

Get Showry.

- Go. - Thumb!

(The white team is trying to attack with the thumb.)

Thumb!

Screen!

Come on!

(They need screening.)

(And he's on the opposite side once again.)

- Nice. - Nice defense.

Nice defense!

It's a complete mess.

- When I'm there... - Focus, Seon Ho.

What do I do when I'm there?

- You should come quickly. - I see.

I'm in.

Rebound. Hey!

Slowly.

Find your man!

- Look here. - Thumb!

- Tae Sun, come up! - Hurry!

Thumb!

Thumb!

Thumb!

- Again. Kyung Jun's here. - Good!

Shoot right away at the start.

Good!

Well done.

Good!

(The reason why Blue's thumb worked and received a compliment)

Well done.

(Tae Sun's screening is okay.)

(Su Inn is okay.)

(Kyung Jun is okay.)

(No defense)

Well done, Lee Sang Yun.

Your shots go in, don't they?

- Yes. - You just have to move to score.

Good shot.

(The Blue starts to take the lead.)

Good shot.

- Your screen, thumb worked. - Yes, well done.

You need to check for a chance for a three-point after.

It worked.

Nice pass.

- Don't they do better... - Yes.

- after learning something? - Yes.

Focus on the defense!

The ball is coming.

Focus on the defense!

That was close.

Let's focus.

Kim Seung Hyun!

I'm sorry.

(They need to quickly make up for the four points they lost.)

Watch your defense.

Get into your position.

Who's on the side end?

Now, V!

(Let's properly try to make the pattern.)

Seung Hyun, it's the other way.

- No, the other way... - You have to screen me.

- Seung Hyun, - Yes, that's how you screen.

The time!

(The time for the offense goes over before even setting a screen.)

You have to come from this side.

You have to screen from the front.

What in the world is Kim Seung Hyun doing?

Who taught you...

to do V like that?

What kind of a V are you making, you two?

(The Whites keep messing up with the tactic.)

Seung Hyun, you screen the V.

- Okay, I got it. - Just the V.

- Seon Ho, you screen the thumb. - What are you doing?

Okay.

- Tae Sun, to the back. - Okay.

Okay.

- Thumb! - Get here!

Nice pass.

Nice pass.

Nice pass.

Good!

(Eun Woo is excelling in assist and scoring.)

(He immediately uses...)

(the dribble he learned earlier.)

(A fantastic pair is on.)

Slowly.

I'm alone.

To where?

Good!

(Another great play from the pair)

(Cha Eun Woo's assist)

(Julien gets completely tricked by a feint.)

Let's go. We have to run!

Drop it!

(The Whites fail in another attack as they get uneasy.)

On the front!

Good!

(The play of the pair is at its peak.)

Nice!

On the front!

(A no-look-pass that tricks Julien)

(Eun Woo has improved drastically in one day.)

I can see that Eun Woo is...

- playing as he's taught. - It's because he's focusing.

You can see that too, can't you?

Eun Woo is focusing the most.

Nice pass.

Move when I say "thumb".

Thumb!

Thumb!

It's a thumb.

No, you have to be here.

(Once again, the team play is not working out.)

(Even the pass is a mess.)

(He touches his nose in embarrassment.)

What are you doing?

Why are you acting cool after messing that pass?

Why are you acting cool after messing that pass?

(A mistake that occurs due to low focus.)

V!

- V! - V line!

Good.

(Blue's guaranteed V that always works)

(No defense)

- Nice pass. - Well done.

Do you know how it worked?

The ball drops in front of you as you moved correctly.

The ball drops to you if you just move as I tell you!

(Handsome A versus Handsome B, 12:0)

Get Tae Sun!

No!

- Yes! - Nice.

(Finally, the White gets their first score.)

Well done.

Nice pass.

(Basket count - If a foul is made as the player scores,)

a free throw is given along with the point.)

We missed him.

We have to move a lot...

so we don't have time when we're apart from each other.

- So just play basketball. - Okay.

Start from the box.

(First half ends.)

Split up and talk.

(The Blues are in a good mood.)

I'm only counting on you.

We're doing good.

Nice.

It's important...

to win,

but trying is...

- also what matters. - I agree.

Yes, let's try.

(On the other hand, the Whites...)

Split up and talk.

You guys are a complete disaster, to be honest.

I'm really disappointed in you.

What are you doing?

I've shouted to you until my throats got sore.

It's not the fact that you can't shoot or score.

There's not a single one who knows their position.

(Whites failed to follow coach Seo's instructions.)

It means that you are not focusing at all.

Let's try the gum once again.

It's not gum, but thumb.

When I go thumb, I screen you...

Yes, but...

I have to move down and screen someone.

But there was...

- no one. - Who did you have to take?

Showry, when you said thumb earlier on,

It's Seung Hyun or Ji Suk.

You don't have to push it...

if you haven't gotten to your position.

Come back up.

(Should we review?)

Ji Suk,

thumb or V then?

Then what should I do?

- What you did earlier on. - Just the screen?

When Julien starts from here, screen for him.

That's a thumb.

- Thumb. - When I go thumb,

- Look. - But when you say thumb...

and I'm already under the post.

- Then what do you do? - Do I run...

- after you go to the post? - No, that's V.

So for the thumb, I must absolutely be here.

Then I'll screen. Then you can go in.

No.

Judge on our own to move to the thumb if he's not there.

If I'm not there, move to the position for V.

What about Tae Sun?

(The Whites need a turnaround.)

I'll take Eun Woo.

Ready,

(Blue: 12, White: 3)

Okay.

- Set! - V!

- Warn us first. - V!

V!

V!

Kyung Jun is here.

We messed up the V.

- We messed up the V. - Sorry.

Again.

- Switch up. - You don't have time!

Thumb!

- Thumb! - Wait for the V.

Shoot!

Good.

Good.

Good pass. You did well,

but what are you doing when you were supposed to do thumb?

Su Inn, come down here.

(Only Kyung Jun is screening.)

What are you doing?

You are supposed to screen, Su Inn.

I looked behind and there was no one.

Sorry.

Okay.

Okay. You did good.

(You have to be in your position even if you're an ace.)

I screen Sang Yun...

and then screen twice for Sang Yun.

- Let's go Whites! - White, thumb!

Thumb!

Ji Suk, come back.

No, take it slow.

(Let's do it properly this time.)

White, thumb!

(Seo Ji Suk, number 23)

It's an out.

I'm sorry.

- Okay. - Come on.

(Ji Suk makes it in fine but the pass doesn't.)

I'm sorry.

Okay.

I'm sorry. I thought that it would make it to the center.

- You did fine. - I'm sorry.

Yes, you just have to drop it.

Nice.

Pass before you go!

(Blue scores through team play.)

(On the other hand, the Whites are mostly playing independently.)

- Good shot. - Nice.

(Basketball is a team sport.)

Look at the difference.

- It's 20:7. - Yes.

It's working for them as they're focusing on what they learned.

It's not working for those guys as they forgot...

everything and are playing on their own.

And they even have Julien.

- Yes. - They also have...

Seo Ji Suk. But it's just...

(They are competent independently, but as a team, they are behind.)

Where are you going, Kang Kyung Jun? Look at him.

V!

Hey!

Nice.

Your legs are giving out.

(He tenaciously makes an assist even if his legs give out.)

Stay alert, Kyung Jun.

You have to be ready to guard at all times.

You have to be ready.

You don't have time!

(The match ends.)

(The Blue and the White feel mixed feelings.)

Are you okay?

Greet each other.

Hey.

Are you okay?

(It's time for an honest assessment.)

You trained...

for the first time today and it must be hard.

It must have also been confusing to do something new.

There are things you told me when we first met.

Motivation. You wanted to...

play basketball properly as a team.

"I really like basketball, so I want to go to this tournament..."

"to win the best of the best teams and fulfill my dream."

That's what you said. But I'll tell you...

the impression I got from each of you today using this.

(Player evaluation is something that a coach can't avoid making.)

(It's cruel, but he's planning to make a coldly honest assessment.)

You were good, but...

(Lee Sang Yun scores mid.)

Yes.

Maybe it's because you got tired, but sometimes you lost focus.

- If you increase your stamina, - Yes.

(His stamina is a blow to play a 40-minute match.)

(In order to have a consistent game performance,)

You must have realized yourself at the end of the 5:5 match.

If you focus on your play,

you must be able to understand why...

I told you to move like that since you're a smart man.

(And Kim Seung Hyun...)

(The lowest)

You have a zero concentration.

Frankly saying.

(Kim Seung Hyung gets the lowest.)

I think you should be ashamed of yourself...

of your zero concentration.

I was really disappointed.

Is it that hard to change your position here?

(Strategy training)

(Everyone was out of focus.)

You have to be more determined next time.

Also, you have to be ready...

for running...

although I know you're busy.

(It's Showry's turn.)

(The lowest)

You should know yourself.

(Showry also gets the lowest.)

I think I'm going to be so disappointed...

because of your different attitude from what you said before.

(An accurate pass is everything to the point guard.)

(An inaccurate pass is a minus to the team.)

You can't stay here with an easy mind.

I've never asked you to entertain here.

I hope you get your things together, Showry.

I get that you're tired...

since all this workout is very sudden.

I hope you get focused more.

(They have skills but they need to get fit.)

Honestly, from what I see...

it's hard to say that Eun Woo is way better than all of you.

But what I was surprised to see was...

he actually was focused on what I said.

(He was concentrated on Coach Seo's strategy the most.)

(He keeps the fast break whenever he gets the chance.)

(A hustle play without stint)

I didn't ask you...

to look cool at the game.

Concentrating is all I ask and Eun Woo did that.

I was really impressed.

(The best)

Let's give him applaud.

(Coach highly appreciates his teamplay over showing his skills.)

You can privately strengthen...

your posture] and stable dribbling later on.

(Good)

Seon Ho also did well.

(Yoo Seon Ho gets "good".)

But the reason why Seon Hos gets "good" not like Eun Woo is...

because Seon Ho was running all over the place.

Right?

That's why I gave Seon Ho "good".

Do you understand?

Thank you for your hard work...

and I really appreciate your devotion to this.

But I hope to meet you guys with better physical fitness...

the next time.

- Okay? - Yes, sir.

(The typhoon has passed in a moment.)

(Look at this atmosphere.)

- You all played hard today. - Great work.

(What they need now is...)

We plan to do get-together after.

- Oh, really? - Would that be okay?

Of course.

- Yes, I'm hungry. - We need to eat.

Shall we hurry and have a good meal?

Yes!

- Great work today. - Good work, everyone.

- Good work. - You did well.

(The meat is being roasted well automatically,)

(but they're all frozen with silence.)

(Glancing)

(Also glancing)

(They're eating others' salt instead of food.)

It's a miracle that we're sitting here.

(Everyone's so stiff.)

Actually,

this is fulfilling your dreams...

and it's a pretty good thing to do, you know.

- You can lose a lot of weight too. - Right.

If you run like today for every day,

even if you have ten meals a day,

you won't get fat.

So I used to struggle to keep my weight.

I'm afraid I'll get sick before that.

No.

Have some meat, everyone.

So this is how they're giving.

It looks great.

- It's pork belly! - Thank you.

Enjoy your food.

Enjoy.

I think we need more meat here.

This meat tastes great.

(And a growing student, Seon Ho is...)

This is crazy. It's so good.

(Let's eat more rather than admiring it.)

Can I have another bowl of rice? Thank you.

- Have all you want. - I was so hungry.

This is so good.

(But we have one more thing to do.)

Coach, we need to pick our captain.

- Let's vote. - Okay.

The one who gets the most vote will be the captain.

Who would it be?

(Kyung Jun starts to write a name right away.)

(He writes "Lee Sang Yun" clearly.)

(What's he doing? I'm right next to him.)

- What? - You're practically showing me.

Can I eat that?

(Who's the first one to be called?)

Ji Seok.

(Ji Seok gets one vote.)

Sang Yun.

(Sang Yun gets one vote.)

And...

Sang Yun.

(Sang Yun gets two votes.)

- Lee Sang Yun. - Let's call everyone.

Sang Yun Lee.

Lee Sang Yun.

Did you write your own name, Ji Seok?

- It kind of looks like it. - That's so true.

He must've written his own name.

And Lee Sang Yun.

What's going on?

- I did it. - Did you guys plan all this?

Lee Sang Yun and a heart.

I'm sorry, I wrote that.

Really?

So the captain of Handsome Tigers is Lee Sang Yun.

(Handsome Tigers' captain Lee Sang Yun)

All right, then.

Say something.

At this point, let our captain...

and also my best friend...

Lee Sang Yun says...

- a word to celebrate... - Someone please give him a mic.

him being the captain.

Please give him a round of applause.

Come to think of it,

it's good to do what we like with great friends,

but since our coach has put his name on stake,

let's be serious for this 2 to 3 months.

We're celebrities but let's think as ourselves as a player...

and play seriously.

- I'd like that. - Okay, good.

Tell me if you have any complaints about the coach.

Let me talk to you privately.

I was really happy to come here today and yesterday.

- I don't know if you felt it, - I was happy too.

- I couldn't even sleep from joy. - Me too.

It's been a while since I felt this way.

So I hope to feel this way to the end.

(They have felt similar feelings past two days.)

During the past two days,

it was different from what I've been doing as an idol.

It was different. It is hard but I enjoyed it.

It's so good to do this with great brothers, sister,

- and... - And a little brother too.

Right, a great little brother.

So I look forward...

to be with you all.

Yes.

To be short,

- He's so tall. - I think of you...

as my real little brothers and sisters,

my family.

I think a family pass beyond the team.

So I think of ourselves as a family.

Let's do our best and make this happen.

That was awesome.

Let's toast for the last.

Our captain can do it.

Yes. Captain!

This beer is...

popular these days.

Can you please fill up my glass with that popular beer?

- Please fill up my glass. - Eun Woo's glass is empty.

- It's great. - If one of us drinks...

beer really cool,

- you could have a commercial. - But,

all of us can be on a commercial.

- He's right. - Yes, everyone.

- Not just one. - Please wait a year for me.

- Right. He needs a year for it. - Yes, please wait a year.

Let's drink it cool.

Okay.

- Can I take "Handsome"? - Sang Yun.

Okay.

Okay.

- Handsome! - Roar!

I think that was pretty cool.

She just went for it.

Eun Woo!

- Handsome... - Bottoms up!

- Handsome... - Bottoms up!

That was too cheesy. It was rather dirty.

It wasn't so cool.

- I won't have a lot. - He's the best.

The beer is so good.

How's the taste of your beer after practice?

- It's like honey. - This is...

It's absorbed into my toes.

By the way, I hear there's a match waiting for us.

Well,

we have to play a lot of practice games.

- Right. - We need real experiences.

So you'll be playing with a strong team next week.

They're amazing players.

Not only do they run their own league every year,

but they're also said to be the ace...

of the nation's amateur basketball team.

(43 days before the league preliminaries)

(Is this the prelude to the basketball war?)

(Basketball monsters are coming from abroad.)

(Basketball monsters take over the net.)

(It is real, raw basketball that they attack and chew off.)

(Why are they playing so rough?)

I was hit so hard.

It will be ripped.

(Their strength is non-stop.)

(Will they break down just like this?)

(Tigers are put under fire.)

(Will their pride be destroyed?)

(He reestablish their game with his orders.)

(Nothing is finished until the buzzer goes off.)

(What would be their final strategy to...)

(knock down the basketball monsters?)
