Original subtitles

- Hi, Mom. - Jae Yi. Are you going to be late?

No, I won't be late.

Do you remember the dumplings we ate the other day?

- You mean the dim sum? - Yes, that one.

- I'll buy some on my way home. - Okay.

All right.

You must be bored.

Do you want some gum?

It's sugar-free, so don't worry.

Okay.

I don't have water in my car.

It's okay. Don't worry. I'll just hold my breath.

Gosh, I was so silly.

Things were going great, and I blew it.

I'm sorry I kept you waiting.

I couldn't find a convenience store.

I got a warm beverage from the vending machine.

Here you go.

Thank you.

How is it? Are you okay now?

I think so.

The wind is cold in the morning and evening.

You're wearing thin clothes.

You still have hiccups. Drink some more.

Drink some more.

You can drink as much as you want. It's just tea.

(Episode 6, Long Tails Either Get Caught or Get Stepped on)

I started to learn swimming when I was 11 years old.

I was a lonely, awkward,

and nervous kid.

To me, water felt like the only safe place.

Just like...

being in the arms of my mom.

In fact, I was left with my uncle's family when I was 10...

as my mom got remarried and went to Canada.

So the parents you have now are...

They're my aunt and uncle. Jae Yi is my cousin.

It was okay.

My mom sent me presents and post cards every Christmas.

I didn't think I was abandoned.

I believed we'd meet someday.

But...

- Joon Hyung. - The rising star...

You got a Christmas present from Canada.

It came a bit early this year.

Maybe she wanted to wish you good luck for your game today.

- I'll go and make some snacks. - Okay.

Let's see.

How unlucky. I have a game today.

Mom. Do we have waterproof Band-Aids?

Are you hurt?

Check the drawers next to the door to my room.

I realized that...

the handwriting on the post cards became different...

after the first three.

It looked like...

someone tried to imitate my mom's handwriting.

It was your aunt.

Is that day...

Yes. It was the day of the game that I had symptoms for the first time.

Thank you.

I'm sure it wasn't easy for you to tell me that.

Do you think it has something to do with my symptoms?

Probably.

Like I told you before...

"Panic disorder and conversion disorder are diseases of the heart."

It can cause hearing problems, too.

I suppose you were quite shocked on that day.

I guess you felt like you lost...

the only connection you had with your mother.

Good.

We now know what might have caused your problem.

Let's take it slow to solve it.

Telling me about it may have cured it by half.

Then... Let's see.

Which method will be...

the most effective for you?

I think we need to do an experiment.

When is your next game?

Thank you for giving me a ride. Please drive safely.

What's wrong with her? What is she wearing?

I set her up with a good chance. She should be wearing...

a pretty dress and show off her charms. Only then,

Jae Yi would say, "You look so charming today, Bok Joo."

But with those clothes,

it all goes down the drain.

Let me drop you off at your house.

It's not polite to let a woman go home by herself at night.

No, it's fine. I can go home from here even with my eyes shut.

I also need to stop by at the supermarket to buy something.

Okay. I'll see you at the clinic.

Don't forget to do some stretches before you go to sleep.

Okay. Goodbye.

My goodness.

Gosh, you're going to break your back, Bok Joo.

I can't watch this.

What should I do with you, Bok Joo?

Are you happy, Bok Joo? Are you?

Where is she going?

She never takes the subway.

Three.

Two.

One.

Okay, there she is.

Did I catch a cold?

It's because of the dress.

Hey, who's this?

It's the weightlifting fairy Kim Bok Joo.

Are you watching me 24 hours a day?

Why do we meet every day?

I find it surprising, too.

Why do I always see you?

What's that?

It's nothing. It's none of your business.

It looks like you're coming back from a concert.

You didn't go there...

looking unsophisticated by wearing a dress and heels, did you?

No way. I wouldn't wear such an outfit to a concert.

I was checking just in case you did.

My brother despises a fashion style that's too feminine.

Really?

No, I was kidding.

All men like feminine fashion style.

Hey.

Are you teasing me because you saw me? You're so evil.

Don't call me evil when I paid for you.

Then why did you tease me?

I spent all of my monthly allowance to buy those tickets.

Well, thank you for the tickets.

You should thank me.

Did you have a good time with him?

It wasn't bad.

- He drove me, too. - You went for a drive?

You did everything, didn't you?

Watch out, Bok Joo!

Gosh, that was close.

Thank goodness for my quick motor system.

What was wrong with that driver?

Hey, you!

Come here, you jerk.

Joon Hyung!

Are you leaving?

Why don't you rest some more?

It's okay, I'm fine now.

You had a temporary stomach cramp, so I gave you a shot of painkillers.

Here's some antacid.

Remember to take it after eating.

Thank you.

Stomach cramps are usually caused by excessive acid due to stress.

Are you stressed out these days?

Yes, a little.

Is it because of a man?

Who is he?

Who is this man making such a beautiful woman sad?

You should dry your hair first. It's all wet.

Whose fault is that? Keep your mouth shut.

Give it to me. It'll take forever to dry your hair like that.

Give it back.

Wait, I'll dry it for you.

Gosh.

Goodness, I'm sorry.

Here, do whatever you want with it.

I never asked you to dry my hair, you punk.

Gosh.

Hey.

Do you think Jae Yi noticed...

that you like him?

No, I don't think he has any idea.

I don't want him to find out.

Men don't like women who does weightlifting.

Look.

It's full of calluses.

Who would like hands full of calluses?

What's wrong with that? It's because you do weightlifting.

You can feel safe walking at night.

I'd be happy if I were him.

You're only good with words.

Anyway, I had a good day.

Thanks to you, I went on something similar to a date.

When Dr. Jeong was driving me,

I felt like Cinderella riding her pumpkin carriage.

You know, when the clock hits midnight,

she comes back to reality.

At least, she ends up marrying the prince.

You're right.

I don't like watching movies without a happy ending.

Did you know...

in that fountain...

lives a toad that grants your wishes?

- What? - You didn't know?

Are you sure you go to Haneol Sport University? It's a famous legend.

You know all of our senior athletes who won the gold medal?

All of them won because of the toad.

You should work on your creativity.

I'm being serious.

You may not know it,

but if you pray earnestly enough, he grants your wish no matter what.

Why don't you pray to him...

so that it works out between you and Jae Yi?

You're full of lies.

Did you catch a cold?

My nose has been itching for a while.

I'm sorry,

but I have an important plan to follow, so I can't catch a cold.

I'm leaving.

What are you doing?

Gosh, I really can't catch a cold.

It'll last long.

My germs are very strong like me.

It's an awesome virus.

If I really catch a cold,

I'm going to...

return the virus by kissing you if I have to.

You wait and see.

Wait for me, Joon Hyung.

Come on, be a loyal friend.

Joon Hyung, wait for me.

I must have caught a cold.

It's so annoying.

Are you sick? You look so pale.

I'm okay.

I also caught a cold.

Maybe we're unlucky today.

Why doesn't it open?

Here, I'll do it for you.

- It's okay. I'll do it. - Come on, give it to me.

I said I will...

I'm sorry for being too sensitive.

Even if Bok Joo moves up her weight class,

she'll do well.

Chang Geol, they want more radish.

What are you doing? The chicken is getting burnt.

Oh, my.

It's all burnt. What a waste.

Did you fall asleep or something?

No.

I was lost in thoughts.

Focus on strengthening the torso while keeping the same weight.

- Let's increase the number. - Okay.

Should we increase the number of consumption of protein as well?

Let Woon Gi decide.

He can adjust it on his own.

I'm glad that Woon Gi decided to move up.

Bok Joo doesn't seem probable though, right?

I can't bring it up without Mr. Kim's permission.

It'll be hard for Bok Joo to decide as well.

Hello.

You came all the way here.

Why didn't you call us? We would have come to you.

I'm sure you know why I'm here.

Let's get down to it since we're both busy.

Okay, I'm listening.

It's about what you mentioned last time.

Bok Joo's weight class.

What do you think is going on?

I have no idea.

I have a bad feeling about it.

I want to know.

I really want to know.

- It's driving me crazy. - Stop it.

Stop it. You're making it worse.

Bok Joo, come out now.

Be quiet.

What?

My weight class?

That's right.

I'm sure you're surprised.

Of course. I'd be surprised if I were you.

Professor Yoon and I believe...

that you have the potential.

Increasing your weight few months before the competition isn't normal,

but you're strong.

Off the records, you've tied with the best record from the 63kg class.

That's when I was in my best condition.

You should make it so.

We'll make sure to help you.

As you know,

the competition for 58kg weight class is fierce.

In your weight class, the result of...

the competition changes drastically depending on your condition.

What about 63kg?

Ever since Jang Ran Ran retired,

there's no one who stands out.

I'm not saying this to pressure you,

but if you go up to 63kg,

then other girls...

could try for a medal at 58kg.

Coach Choi is right. It'll be a win-win situation for everyone.

It'll benefit you and create opportunities for team members.

If you can manage to gain 3 to 4kg, it'll be totally possible.

Woon Gi is doing the same thing. We're working on his program now.

If you can make up your mind,

we can give you all the support you need.

But I have to talk to my dad first...

We already spoke to him. He gave us a go ahead today.

Pardon?

My dad did?

How can you do that without even talking to me?

You fool. It's not like that was an easy decision for me.

I was tossing and turning all night thinking about what to do.

How can you make such an important decision by yourself?

Do you think going up a weight class is as easy as blowing a balloon?

Bulking up is a lot harder than losing weight.

You must know it, too!

I know. I'm obviously aware of it,

but life is a challenge in and of itself.

As a weightlifter, you have to keep challenging yourself.

Professor Yoon is right. This will put you at an advantage.

It's a pretty good strategy.

- Dad! - I have to deep-fry chicken.

I'm behind on orders. I have to go.

- Let's talk later. - Dad!

You always do whatever you want! You even hung up on me!

Calm down, Bok Joo.

I know that it'll be difficult, but it's not impossible.

I agree. Gaining 3 to 4kg...

isn't that difficult for you.

That's not it.

Gosh, this is seriously driving me crazy.

Why would you go crazy over this?

We'll help you.

Yes. As good friends, we'll pig out with you.

That's not why I'm upset.

Why does it have to be now? For goodness' sake.

Don't run! It'll make you lose weight.

Hey, Bok Joo. Wait up!

- Dad always does whatever he wants. - Calm down.

What? You want to go on the match hosted by Joongang Bank?

Why?

It's a small match. It won't really be helpful for you.

Just as practice.

I see. You're right.

Getting as much practice as possible will help you overcome the anxiety.

I think it's a good idea.

Hey.

Use your guts that allowed you to reject being Tae Hoon's partner...

to win a medal.

Everyone will badmouth Ronaldo if he scores a goal at a tiny game.

You're getting cheeky again. All right. Do it.

Okay, thank you.

Kim Bok Joo, that girl. She gave me her cold.

Why did she have to give me her cold at a time like this?

Hey, Chubs!

Hey, how will you take responsibility for this?

I caught a cold because of you!

I have a match next week. How will you take responsibility for this?

Shut it. My head is already pounding.

Is something going on?

I don't even know. Nothing is going my way.

You looked happy until yesterday. What happened?

- I have to move up a weight class. - Weight class?

My gosh, Bok Joo! Are you finally moving up to the heavyweight class?

But what is the problem?

Hey. Right now, I can't...

You know that I'm in a bind now. I signed up at the clinic, too.

Hey, that's not really an issue.

I mean, you go there to see Jae Yi. Weight loss isn't your goal.

You got to do what you have to do unless you'll quit weightlifting.

That's true, but...

Hey, you're talking as if it's so easy because it's not your problem.

Do you think all things in life are that simple?

Right, you probably have no idea how life really works.

You're from a good family, you're a natural swimmer,

you're good-looking, and girls are all over you.

I was an idiot to expect advice from you.

I'm going, you stuck-up.

I should be the one getting mad at you!

How can you yell at me after giving me your cold?

(Weightlifting Department)

"You got to do what you have to do."

He can say whatever because it's not his problem. What a jerk.

That sly dabbler.

Bok Joo.

What's up? What brings you here? What is it?

I left my practice journal here.

I see.

Have you had a chance to give it some thought?

Pardon me?

Oh, that.

You'll need to start the special training now if you want to bulk up.

We've already come up with the plan.

I see.

Then...

I will... I'll give it a try.

Really?

You want to give it a try? Seriously?

Professor Yoon, Professor Yoon!

Bok Joo wants to give it a try. She has made up her mind.

Is that right, Bok Joo? Are you serious?

You made the right decision.

As we told you the other day, you can certainly do it.

Of course. Who would be able to do it if Bok Joo can't?

Your dad will be so thrilled to hear this.

- Then let's start today. - All right.

- I'll train Woon Gi. - Okay.

You should train Bok Joo, Coach Choi.

Gosh, I must say that it'll also be a competition between us.

Coach Choi, are you confident?

Of course. You know how scary I can be as a coach.

You're scary, indeed.

Bok Joo, you better watch out. She might bite you.

One more round.

One more.

Coach Choi, I really can't eat any more.

There was so much rice.

That's how much you usually eat.

You got to go for another round.

It was going so well. Why did you gain weight all of a sudden?

Doctor, it's because I haven't been following the diet.

- The scale isn't broken. - It's my fault.

It's all right. Your weight can fluctuate at the beginning.

But I'm going to give you two different types of treatment today.

Lie down.

That's odd.

Your weight went up by 1kg yesterday.

Why did you lose 0.5kg?

Hey, Bok Joo.

Did you go...

to the bathroom a few times today?

Yes, I did.

We need to fix this. Let's go fill you up again.

We're having an extra-large size of bossam for a snack!

Bok Joo, you got to try harder.

Woon Gi has already gained 1.6kg.

No, I still have a long way to go. I have to increase my muscle mass.

Bok Joo will get there soon, too.

Bok Joo, eat the meat.

Gosh, your cold is lasting for such a long time.

Right, you're practically living in the pool to prepare for the match.

Of course the cold won't go away.

You can't even take any medicine.

By the way, why are you going on that match?

Isn't that match for those who are starting out?

You idiots.

Only those who aren't competent are fussy about things like that.

Learn from us, you fools.

When I was a freshman, I was not like you guys...

Shut it and just eat your food.

- You guys are done, right? - Yes.

- We're going. - I'm not done yet.

- I'm not done. I'm still eating. - Come on.

Do you have a match coming up?

It looks like you have a cold. Will you be okay?

Coughing lasts for a long time when you catch a cold.

You're really unbelievable.

You're acting like a stalker. Is this fun for you?

How could it be fun?

It's exhausting and embarrassing. My pride has been crushed.

But I'm really desperate right now.

You're the only thing I can hold onto.

That's just in your head.

I'm not that person for you.

I'm just myself.

Okay.

I'll leave you alone, so finish your food.

You can't even take medicine, so you have to eat well.

It looks like Joon Hyung keeps rejecting you.

Isn't it too demeaning?

You're the most beautiful girl in our school.

Is this why you kept rejecting me?

You can come back.

I'll treat you better than Joon Hyung.

Get lost, you jerk.

No, no.

- I'll never finish this. No. - Let me go.

No, no!

Why can't you eat it?

Just have some drumsticks...

and drink the broth. It's not that much.

I thought you must be sick of fried chicken.

That's why I boiled the chicken with ginseng and abalone.

I even had three plates of food for lunch today.

There's only so much I can eat.

I can't just keep shoving food down my throat.

My gosh.

Pick it up! Just wait.

Bok Joo. I know it's hard,

but you should try your best.

I think you really have a shot at winning.

I can feel it.

That doesn't matter.

I'm saying I'm not confident!

Gosh, just eat it. My arms are about to fall off.

Then put it on your head!

Or on your back!

Be quiet, you punk.

I can't put this on my back.

Hello.

Hi, Coach Choi.

You didn't have to go through the trouble and make this.

I bought some pizza for Bok Joo as well.

Is that so? Shall we go inside?

- Let me carry it. - No, it's fine.

Lifting things is what I do. Let's go.

Let's eat, Bok Joo.

- Let me carry it. - It's okay.

- I can't eat any more. - Hurry up.

Bok Joo's dad...

makes such delicious food.

He is a master.

- This is perfectly seasoned. - I know.

By the way, we can eat as much food as we want...

with people's support.

- Weightlifting isn't so bad, right? - That's right.

Those gymnasts eat like a bird every day to lose weight.

Eat up. Why are you picking at the food? This is all for you.

She's right. Have some pizza.

Should I pick some drumsticks? You like them.

You said you wish chickens had four feet.

I'm just sick of chicken.

I'll soon shed chicken broth instead of tears.

I'm actually full.

We might all end up in the open-weight class.

Don't be so weak.

We, big eaters, always have...

our friend, soft drinks.

Help us, dear soft drinks!

Gosh. I have some coins. I'll get them.

Goodness.

(A New Message)

Hey. Don't try so hard.

You'll lose weight. I'll do it.

Let me.

"Ms. Kim Bok Joo, your session is at 4:30pm tomorrow. J Weight Clinic."

Your session is at 4:30 at J Weight...

Hey. Why do you go to a weight clinic?

Nan Hee. Let me explain.

- Nan Hee. - I just...

Hey! Why do you go to a weight clinic?

You need to raise your weight class.

What on earth are you up to these days?

Nan Hee.

How could that be?

Great work today.

- Are you saying you like him? - You, too. See you tomorrow.

Not Joon Hyung?

Yes.

And he is Joon Hyung's older brother.

Yes.

You wanted...

to see him at any cost,

so you signed up for sessions and paid a lot of money.

You lied to us, kept going there,

and lifted the rice bags for Joon Hyung to keep him quiet.

Is this what you're saying?

- Yes. - You crazy girl!

I know. I deserve that. I am crazy.

No one in the right mind would do this.

I tried hard not to do it,

but he kept popping up in my head. I started seeing things.

I really couldn't help it.

I just wanted to see his face. That's all I wanted.

I get it.

I mean he's way better than Joon Hyung.

He's so manly. He looked very sturdy.

Right? Isn't he handsome?

Yes, he is.

He's cute. Besides, he's a doctor.

You're so sly.

You pretended that you were not interested in men at all.

You have such a great taste in men.

By the way, how did you guys meet?

It wouldn't be like in the movie...

where he shared his umbrella on a rainy day, right?

He did.

Oh, my. Really?

Did he really do that?

My goodness.

He makes my heart flatter.

He's great and handsome, right?

I want someone like him, too.

- He's mine. - Is he? I'm so jealous.

(Si Ho, it's ginger extract. Eat it when you have a cold. Mom)

Hey, what are you doing? Get some rest.

You have a match tomorrow, and you're still sick.

You should save your energy.

I need to watch this.

Watching it won't help you.

Get rest.

Sweet dreams.

Fine. Gosh.

Stop nagging me. You're not my mom.

Stop complaining.

Just go to sleep.

It's me, Si Ho.

Can you come out without telling Joon Hyung?

I'm sorry.

I called you out so suddenly. You must've been surprised.

Here.

What is this?

It's dates and ginger tea. Joon Hyung has a game tomorrow.

If I give it to him, he won't drink it.

Hey.

What is it?

It's my sincere love for you.

Is this ginger tea?

Don't ask any questions and just drink up.

Think of it as medicine.

It's good.

I feel better now.

Do you? That's good to hear.

You punk.

You shouldn't be so cold and play nice.

What I meant was your body and heart are cold.

That's why you caught a cold. That's what I wanted to say.

Hey, I need to go to the bathroom. I have to go.

I'll be in the bathroom. Finish it before I get back.

What is he saying?

Do you know how sexy his voice is?

It's not too high or too low.

It sounds so sweet.

It must be as great as the prince's voice that Sleeping Beauty heard...

when she woke up from her sleep.

Gosh, really?

I saw his face but didn't hear his voice.

When he smiles,

the corners of his eyes wrinkle a bit,

and his white teeth are shown.

It makes my heart flutter.

It feels so enchanting. He melts my heart.

Let me tell you the biggest reason why I fell for him.

This is really important.

It's...

his gentle heart.

I've never seen such a gentleman.

He's not pretentious. It's his natural personality.

When I'm with him,

I feel like I became a very beautiful woman.

I've never been treated like that, so I don't know how that feels.

Anyway, he's fantastic.

He's sweet, gentle, and reliable.

I can't believe he is Joon Hyung's brother.

He's so mature.

Hey. Listening to you makes me want to meet him.

Why?

You're not going to make us fight over a guy, right?

I'm a bit worried that you will.

You flirt with every guy.

No matter how desperate I am, I won't try to steal your man.

My man?

- Oh, my. - Bok Joo, gosh.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

We used the toilet, of course.

We were about to leave. Let's go.

Were you two...

badmouthing me?

How can you do that? You disappeared without me.

Don't be absurd.

We don't have anything bad to say about you.

Of course. Don't be silly.

Let's just go out.

Why did you take one Hamburg steak?

You should eat a lot to put on weight. Here. Take mine.

Thank you, Seon Ok.

Seon Ok. Can you get me some water?

The food got stuck in my throat.

Here is water.

Gosh, eat slowly.

It finally went down.

Wow, you're eating well today. Here you go.

Have another.

- Are you leaving now? - Yes, I have an appointment at 6pm.

Is that what you're going to wear?

- Are you serious? - Why? Do I look bad?

Yes, you do.

Is it at 6pm? Give me just 5 minutes.

Okay.

I did my best.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Are you really going?

Yes.

Fine. Let me take a look at you.

Since you're going, do a good job.

Okay, go back inside.

I should go with you because you're sick.

It's unfortunate that I have training.

You should work harder.

You don't swim as well as I do.

You're so cruel.

Fine, you punk.

I get what you mean. Just go.

You'd better win first place, okay?

Did I make you upset? You're so cute.

See you.

Good luck.

Focus on the start.

It's grilled abalone this time?

We had abalone chicken soup last time.

That was regular abalone I bought at the market.

The abalone is from Wando this time.

Just for you,

I called my friend whom I haven't talked to in 10 years.

Please try to come to the restaurant later.

Don't bring your friends today.

There isn't enough.

I could only get 30 abalone.

Okay, I'll talk to you later.

Where are you going?

- Are you going to the clinic? - Why do you even ask?

I'm on my way to a competition, so send me some good energy.

You know you will be fine.

I don't wish you luck. I hope you make a mistake.

Gosh, she's so mean.

I'm so nervous, but she tries to put a curse on me instead.

You wait and see.

Hey, I'm going to get you!

What a jerk.

(J Weight Clinic)

Your weight increased again.

Why can't you look at me in the eyes?

I'm sorry for keep disappointing you, Dr. Jeong.

You don't need to apologize to me.

This is all for your sake.

It isn't easy to follow the diet plan, is it?

People around you probably don't help, either.

- Right. - The evening is the most difficult.

Unfortunately, socializing in Korea takes place in the late evening.

Some patients say they want to move to a deserted island.

I know. I can't stop my contact with friends.

Let's try harder to lose your weight.

Please get changed for the treatment.

Okay.

Joon Hyung has a competition today.

I sent him a message to wish him luck.

He hasn't replied. He must be busy.

He'll do well. He's confident after all.

He may look it, but he's quite tender-hearted.

It's an important competition for him.

Two years ago, he made a mistake at the start and was disqualified.

His records from training are good enough for the national team.

Ever since, he's made mistakes at the start in important competitions.

I think Joon Hyung is traumatized by the first mistake he made.

Goodness, he always pretends to be strong.

I had no idea.

I gave him a cold and wished him bad luck.

I'm so careless about what I say.

If Joon Hyung doesn't do well, he'll only blame me.

I hope he'll do well.

Also, was it his trauma?

I hope he overcomes it so that he can do his best.

Please.

(Good luck! You can do it, Jeong Joon Hyung!)

(Joongang Bank Swim Competition)

When you have the symptom,

not focusing on the symptom...

is most effective when overcoming it.

When you start to feel nervous,

try to think of something else.

For example, focus on your breathing.

It's also effective to count down the numbers.

Ten.

Nine.

Eight.

Seven.

Six.

Five.

Four.

Soon...

- Three, two. - Joongang Bank Swim Competition...

One.

Please, Joon Hyung.

Take your mark.

Five, four, three,

two.

First place goes to Lee Sang Young from Dongha University.

Second place goes to Choi Jae Hyung from Minju City Hall.

Third place goes to Park Jun from Kyungjin Sport University.

Fourth place goes to Jeong Joon Hyung.

(Results of Joongang Bank Swim Competition)

He didn't make it to the top three.

Why didn't he do better?

Did he get disqualified again? That jerk.

Joon Hyung, are you okay? Stay strong.

(Joon Hyung, are you okay? Stay strong...)

Joon Hyung, it serves you right.

Gosh, what should I write him? I can't send him a sweet message.

Drink it up without leaving a drop.

Go on.

Finish it.

Good.

Gosh. If I didn't catch a cold,

I totally would've been able to win the first place.

Why am I so unlucky?

You should've visited us before the match.

Your mom made for you with special ingredients which would...

be fine for the doping test.

I should have.

I must be getting punished for looking down on the match.

Gosh, stop it. It's completely fine.

You said it's not an important match.

Just forget about it.

- Did you talk to Jae Yi? - Yes, I did.

His nagging is driving me crazy.

He's acting just like you. All he does is worry about me.

Where are you?

- It's Chubs. - Chubs?

Who is Chubs?

A friend of mine who is really funny.

Chubs sounds like a name for a dog.

What's up, Chubs? You never text me.

(What's up, Chubs? You never text me.)

I asked you where you are.

I'm at home.

I'll head back to school now.

He'll be back soon, then.

What's going on with this girl? She asked me to come to the fountain.

Quack, quack.

Quack, quack, quack.

Quack, quack, quack...

What's going on, Bok Joo?

- What's that? - Here. It's a toad.

I didn't make it because you talked about it.

I was bored, and I happened to have a few pieces of paper lying around.

Who knows? It may be your lucky charm.

You're obviously so not crafty.

Look at how it's all wrinkled up.

How many times did you undo and redo this?

Hey, give it back then!

You can't take it back.

It's mine now. We'll see whether it'll bring me luck or not.

Awesome toad.

- You copycat. - What's wrong with it?

You and your friends say it all the time.

"Awesome."

It sounds different when I say it, right?

It probably sounds way cooler.

What? You're cracking a joke,

so you must feel better now. Is your cold gone?

It's better.

I'm sure it'll go away soon. I took medicine when I was at home.

I'm sorry for being harsh on you earlier.

I'm on edge these days.

Hey. You should've done a better job, though.

I know.

I guess I was too full of myself.

Don't worry, though. I'm going to surprise everyone very soon.

You better not ask me for 100 autographs when that happens.

I'll be at the Olympics by then.

You wish.

Let's go.

We have time until the roll call. I'll treat you to something good.

Seriously?

- What are you treating me to? - Something that will energize you.

Keep your mouth shut and just follow me.

Why are you heading towards school?

Gosh, just a moment.

- Do you want to get on this? - Yes!

- I want to... - Gosh! No, you can't.

Giving you a ride the other day...

made be bedridden for three days because of a backache.

- No way. - Shall I teach you a lesson?

Gosh, I said no.

Goodness. I won't go, then.

Joon Hyung, come on. Let's go!

I'm treating you, for goodness' sake.

You can't even do this for me?

Joon Hyung, get on your bike. Hey!

- The number you're calling... - Jeong Joon Hyung!

- Please leave a message after... - You're seriously a piece of work.

You said you want to ride it.

Hey! I'm going to throw this out.

Gosh, seriously.

- Who is he? - Say hello. This is my dad.

Hello.

- This is... - Oh! The one with the tab.

Yes, that's right.

- Do you know him, Dad? - The other day...

I've been here once before with friends.

I didn't know it was your dad's.

What's your relationship, exactly?

Bok Joo has never brought a boy here before.

This is very interesting.

We went to the same elementary school. He's in the swimming team.

I owe him a lot, so I want to do something for him.

We have a lot of abalone, right?

- What? - Abalone.

What do you mean?

Wild abalone.

You said we have wild abalone from Wando.

We have a lot of it, right?

I didn't know that you and Bok Joo went to the same elementary school.

- Eat up. - Thank you.

- This abalone is very rare. - I see.

Hey, eat up.

No, you eat. I don't have much appetite.

Just eat!

I can't stand the feeling of being indebted.

Eat up so that you can fight off your cold.

- Dad. - Yes?

Oh, sorry. Make yourself at home. I hope you enjoy it.

Is it good?

My goodness.

- Gosh, I can't believe that I'm... - Eat up.

seeing Bok Joo with a boy right now. Doesn't it feel weird, Chang Geol?

Goodness, getting those wild abalone was so hard.

I can't believe that weasel is eating all of them.

Why are you calling him a weasel?

I must say that he's very handsome.

To be honest, Bok Joo isn't good enough for him...

- in terms of looks. - Just eat.

See? She likes him more.

Are you blind or what?

What's wrong with Bok Joo?

My vision is perfectly fine.

It's 1.0 on both eyes.

- It can't get any better. - Shut it, you fool.

Anyway, I don't like that guy.

I saw him...

giving Bok Joo naughty looks.

Who?

That guy?

In my opinion, he's in more danger.

At a glance, I can tell that Bok Joo likes him more.

What are you talking about? She said they're just friends.

Then why is she giving him all the abalone?

I mean, she's not the type to share food with other people.

It shows that she's head over heels for him.

Hey, where are we going?

Gosh, just follow me.

- It's so beautiful. - Oh, my.

Isn't my neighborhood so beautiful?

It's so pretty up here at night.

Everything sparkles.

Yes.

It's pretty.

By the way, your trauma.

What is it caused by?

What?

I heard from Doctor Jeong.

Is it caused by pre-match anxiety?

I'm not sure.

How did you get into swimming?

Did your parents tell you to do it?

No. I just liked water.

I first learned swimming when I followed Jae Yi to a pool as a kid.

Water comforted me so much.

It felt warm...

as if it was embracing me.

You have quite the sensibilities.

Did your personality change after you started swimming?

Maybe.

I think so.

It did. You're right.

That's how I got into swimming,

but now that I'm majoring in it, it has become quite stressful.

I can't help but obsess over my records.

I feel like a bull going on a bullfight.

I know.

"Don't worry about your ranking..."

"and just lift weights." I'd have so much fun if that was the case.

Gosh, I hate that I have to be ranked!

Gosh, I hate that I have to be ranked!

But you know what?

In a way, it's our fate as athletes.

We have to accept it.

Hey.

Cheer up.

I'm a good judge of character,

and I know that you'll achieve your goal.

I see something very intense in your eyes.

Are you falling into my eyes?

Yes, I totally am.

It's so beautiful!

We can't even come here when it's colder.

Gosh, Bok Joo must be so full by now.

I know.

Her dad called her, so he'd be feeding her chicken soup.

I've been watching Bok Joo and I realized...

- gaining weight is hard. - Of course.

Raising weight class is much harder.

Bok Joo is working so hard to put on weight.

(Name: Kim Bok Joo Current weight: 57.39kg)

Right now, I feel like...

I won't get sick for one whole year.

This is why people are so eager...

to eat wild abalone.

- Did it give you some energy? - Yes.

I can feel energy surging up.

Your dad's food is what made you so strong.

Now that we ate it together, let's work hard.

It's not like athletes...

get better overnight.

You should have a good physical strength to win the war of nerves.

How long are you going to live a double life?

I know.

I should put an end to it soon.

Look, there's a toad!

- Do you want me to punch you? - I'm serious.

There was a toad this big.

Hey! There it is!

Cut it out. You just like to tease me.

You'd better watch out if you want to live. Okay?

Gosh, why won't you believe me?

There was a toad this big.

Awesome.

What was that? That's not how you say it.

- Awesome. - Awesome.

This is how you say it. Try again.

Stop laughing and do it again.

You're here. You must be tired.

I cleaned your desk and bed.

Okay. Thank you.

Joon Hyung.

You're okay, right?

It wasn't a major competition. You'll do better next time.

I didn't say anything. I'm fine.

I wasn't disqualified today.

That's right. I knew you were broad-minded.

She's surprisingly cute.

(Weightlifting Team)

You should stick more meatballs into the chopstick. Two aren't enough.

Bok Joo, do you want more? I got many of them.

No, just leave them there. I'll eat them later. Thank you.

Okay.

Hey. Why isn't Coach Choi here today?

She'd stand next to Bok Joo during breakfast and lunch,

and shout, "Have one more plate!"

Maybe she's just sleeping in.

Hurry. We'll be late for class.

(Dad)

What is it, Dad? Did you make beef bone soup this time?

Be quiet and come home right now.

What is it, Dad? It's early.

What brings both of you here?

What is this?

Tell me what it is, you brat!

(Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo)

Get over here!

You went to a weight clinic. Do you now see food as poison now?

Can't you see me, Bok Joo?

Is Bok Joo home?

There you are, Bok Joo!

Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo!

I had fun today, thanks to you.

Weightlifters can date, too.

Coach.

This is my second gift. Today is Jae Yi's birthday.

I'm Kim Bok Joo, a sophomore at Haneol Sport University.

I like you, Dr. Jeong.
