Kang Baek Ho!
Baek Ho!
I have something to tell you.
Wait!
Actually, just stay there.
I'll just tell you from here.
If I see you,
I don't think I'll be able to tell you.
Did you know that it's already been 14 years?
That's how long we've known each other.
Even though it's been a while,
it seems like it's gone by so fast.
And that's mostly because of you.
Freshman year, sophomore year,
summer and winter break.
I spent all that time with you.
Kang Baek Ho!
You know,
I actually...
This is Kang Baek Ho. Please leave a message.
Hey, Baek Ho! Are you coming?
Hurry!
There are so many hot girls in here!
Yi Seul might not make it either.
She's worried she won't finish on time.
I can't be lying here like this.
That essay could change Yi Seul's life.
The way Yi Seul's letter changed my life.
I don't want Yi Seul to have any regrets.
Just like she helped me with baseball,
I want to make her dreams come true.
Excuse me.
Could you please tell me Kevin Park's number?
Please, let me talk to him. I just need a minute.
Someone's life depends on it.
I'm sorry, but we can't give out that information.
Sir!
Sir, wait! Please, wait!
Is this for a business matter?
Yes, it is.
Do you know me?
Yes, I do. But you probably don't know me.
If you have business to discuss, you need to follow certain formalities.
You can't just show up like this.
I can at least hear him out.
It's Christmas after all.
It's about the essay contest that ended today.
We finished accepting entries about an hour ago.
I know.
But if you wait a few seconds-
I mean, in a few hours,
my friend will come to submit her essay.
She started writing it this afternoon so she's running a little late,
but if you read it, you'll see how-
Being able to keep deadlines is essential.
How can a person who can't even keep deadlines,
kyoshiek110}.blogspot.com
have what it takes to be a sports agent?
Yes, she does.
She definitely has what it takes to be the best sports agent.
I may not know what that is.
But the person I know,
is the most honest mentor to players,
the hardest trainer,
and the warmest supporter.
Injured players can lean on her,
exhausted players are energized by her,
and for those who've forgotten their dreams...
You can do it!
Look at me.
It's me, Ham Yi Seul!
Kang Baek Ho would never hurt me.
I'm certain of that much.
She's the kind of person who can help you find your way back.
At least...to me.
She sounds interesting.
What do you do?
I pitch for Haneul's college baseball team.
My name is Kang Baek Ho.
Are you then
a player worthy of that manager?
That I'm not so-
She can submit the essay by 12 O'clock.
I won't accept it after that.
-Even if you are Park Chan Ho. - Sir-
It's Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
Thank you.
Thank you, sir!
Yi Seul, it's not too late yet.
Don't give up and just come here by 12.
Okay?
I missed him again.
Kang Baek Ho.
You and I...
It never seems to work.
What's wrong? You look like you've been struck out.
Teacher...
I'm sorry.
A strike out might hurt your self-esteem, but it's not a bad experience.
It's new data.
I told you before.
This is only the first game.
You still have 8 out of 9 innings left.
What happens between people is different from baseball.
That's not true.
Life is very similar to baseball.
That's why I like baseball.
There's always a chance for a turnaround.
Really?
I'll go in first.
Ham Yi Seul.
Where are you?
Is there anything else you'd like to say?
You should go now.
It's a white Christmas.
Ah, it's so cold.
Is that a new scarf?
It's from a luxury brand!
It's very expensive!
Where did you get it? Who gave it to you?
It was a girl, wasn't it?
It was a gift from someone I worked with in the film.
She must like you.
It's not like that.
Of course she does.
There's only one reason girls give out gifts like this.
It's definitely expensive.
Look at the color and pattern.
Let me try it on.
Okay.
Like it would make a difference.
Do I look fancy now?
You do look better with the scarf.
I'm going to the restroom.
Is it okay?
Is this how you're supposed to wear it?
I'm finally done.
Good job.
I feel bad you had such a boring Christmas Eve because of me.
If I'm planning to scout the number 1 agent in the future,
I should at least make a small investment.
What? You didn't know I like working out numbers?
Now all that's left to do is my part.
I'll go deliver it now.
Get some rest.
I will. Thanks.
Sure.
Yi Seul?
She stayed up all night working on that essay in Mr. Kwon's office.
Hello?
Kang Baek Ho!
Oh, that's-
It's perfect on me!
Can I have it?
Forget about that guy.
He doesn't even know how you feel and always makes you cry.
He doesn't deserve a gift like this.
And don't be too sad.
Okay?
In the end,
on Christmas day,
I couldn't give Yi Seul the gift she wanted the most.
And I couldn't even tell her what I'd been wanting to for so long.
The best Christmas gift for me... is you.
Merry Christmas.
Kevin!
This is the essay I told you about.
Please, read it carefully.
I will.
Merry Christmas.
If you like it, you should try it on.
What do you think?
It looks good on you.
Idiot.
Why do you always have to show up when I'm about to give up?
Happy Valentine's Day!
Valentine's Day has arrived again.
For those of you in relationships,
today will feel like melting chocolate truffles.
For those who are single,
it could feel more like bittersweet bonbons.
But one thing is for certain.
That at least for today, you will all think of love.
- Baek Ho, you're here. - Hi.
Afternoon practice?
Yes.
Isn't it a bit much having to practice in this cold weather?
Is it true that only 7 players get to go to Spring Camp?
Yeah.
But you even practice in the cold weather.
Can't they just take you?
Uncle, we are here.
How are you all coming together?
I was working on a set that's nearby, and they were working at a chocolate event.
I think I'm going to freeze to death.
Can't we be done with it?
Is someone just going to hand out money to us?
Valentine's Day is the busiest holiday after Christmas.
We can't just relax.
Uncle! Could we have some soup, please?
Oh, it's Coach!
Wow, Coach Kwon looks great on camera.
Wow, Yi Seul looks beautiful like an actress.
I used to think it was weird.
But now they look great as a couple.
Do you remember?
The time Coach confessed his feelings to Yi Seul.
It was so funny. - So true!
Why did he do it in a loud amusement park?
If you plan to confess your love to someone,
you really need to think about things like the place and the mood.
I was totally shocked.
I don't think Coach is very good in that respect.
What?
I actually thought it was cool.
- Good afternoon. - Good afternoon.
Hello, soldiers.
What would you like? - What do you want?
Private Lee Chul Soo would like some ramen. - What about you?
Private Na Gi Chan would like some black bean noodles-
Is that possible?
You must be fresh recruits.
Is this your first outing?
- How did you know? - I can just tell.
I'm feeling generous today. I'll make you some delicious black bean noodles.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Why is it that everything tastes good when you're in the army?
When Coach confessed his feelings to Yi Seul,
were you in the army?
Yes, he was training as private.
That's why you weren't around.
Why didn't we go visit him during his training?
The punk told us not to.
We should've at least visited you at the end of your training.
That's when everyone visits with food baskets.
It sucks when no one goes visit you.
He always puts himself in those situations.
Baek Ho!
Why do you leave the front door open? It's dangerous.
Don't worry.
This is a very old neighborhood and there's never been any incidents.
Is that why you stayed in this neighbohood all this time?
We really wanted to move.
We were planning to move to that apartment.
Why didn't you?
Since Yi Seul had finished high school,
we thought it'd be a good time to bring up the subject.
Yi Seul was so against it.
-Why? - I don't know.
She said something about this being her hometown.
She said that if we decided to move, to just leave her here.
That's why we gave up on that idea.
I didn't know.
How can you fight that stubborn girl?
She is very stubborn.
I'm done.
Let's go inside.
I'll carry it.
So what brings you here?
I just wanted to see you.
That's nice of you to say, even if it's not true.
It's true.
Did something happen?
No, I just-
The day I was done with boot camp, you brought me a lunch box.
It was delicious.
Kang Baek Ho!
Baek Ho!
Why did you come?
You didn't tell me not to come.
Aunt.
Here. Eat this.
Don't eat too fast.
Have some water.
It was the most delicious lunch I ever had.
That memory came to mind.
So I had this urge to see you.
I see.
That's probably because Yi Seul's lunch box wasn't as good as the one I prepared.
Excuse me?
Don't you remember when Yi Seul went to visit you at your base training camp?
I think it was when you were a private.
You have no idea how big of a deal it was to her.
She insisted on preparing the lunch box all by herself.
So I ended up not helping her.
I think she stayed up all night cooking.
I'm sorry. I have to go.
I'm so sorry.
Yi Seul came to see me.
She came to the base I was assigned to.
Yi Seul came.
Private Kang Baek Ho!
That can't be her!
Yi Seul...
I wonder how you're doing.
There was a period when thinking about Yi Seul brought only comfort.
Whenever I thought about her,
I'd trim and sand down this wooden cross.
It was small and poorly-made.
But it was a necklace that was precious to me.
I never got to finish and give it to her.
I never did.
It was during that cold winter that Yi Seul heard Coach's love confession for the first time.
Don't you remember when Yi Seul went to visit you at your base camp?
When Coach confessed his feelings to Yi Seul,
were you in the army?
Yes, he was training as private.
That's why you weren't around.
If I had met with Yi Seul that day...
If I had confessed my feelings to her before Coach did...
If I could've given her this necklace...
I want to go back.
I want to change things.
What's interesting about your regrets is that they don't get any less intense with time.
You came back!
It can't be easy for you to keep finding things to regret about.
I'm sorry.
No, it was meant as a compliment.
You don't have to feel sorry.
It's nice to have a reason to keep coming back.
Are you saying you can send me back then?
It's even hard for me to understand why you want to go back this time.
I can't believe there is a Korean man willing to go back to training camp.
It's crazy!
I still... want to go back.
I have to go back!
There's a perfect baseball for this occasion.
People say that the military service ends an athlete's career.
But someone still managed to be honorably discharged as army sergeant,
and make it to the Major Leagues.
Good luck.
Renovatio.
Renovatio!
Yi Seul!!
I'm back.
Private Kang Baek Ho, 6th Class.
Wow, I can't believe I'm back in the military.
Wait.
If that's the case... That means.
-Wait, that means!- - Kang Baek Ho!
Kang Baek Ho!
What the hell is the matter with you?
Private Kang Baek Ho!
You think your mind can just wander off while cleaning the boots of the Corporal?
It won't happen again, Sir!
Be honest with me. Do I look funny to you?
You think because I'm shorter and look older than you, I'm a joke, right?
You think because you are tall and look young, you can look down on your superior?
No, Sir!
I have a friend who is short and looks old, and I've never looked down on him, Sir!
You still don't get it, do you? Get up.
You really are mocking me!
No, Sir!
Give me the boots.
1, 2..
What's with the smell- 3.
Here, 4.
Do you see all the spots you missed?!
I'm sorry, Sir! I'll clean it again, Sir!
Take a look at my incredible hand skills.
My precision.
You're right, Sir! You're really dexterous, Sir.
-Head on the floor. - Excuse me?
Excuse me?!
I said, get your head on the floor. It's an order!
Yes, Sir!
-Kang Baek Ho. - Yes, Sir?
Do you see your reflection here?
I don- I mean, I do, Sir!
I'm so stupid! Why didn't I think of-
This is how you shine shoes. Understood?!
Yes, Sir. I'll keep that in mind, Sir!
Get up!
Coming back to basic training camp, means I have to deal with him all over again!
Why didn't I think of that?!
Private Kang Baek Ho! Private Kang Baek Ho! Private Kang Baek Ho!
Private Kang Baek Ho!
Private Kang Baek Ho present!
Hey, Kang Baek Ho!
Sir, Private Kang Baek Ho!
Do you know what day is today?
Yes, Sir. I get to make a phone call today, Sir.
You knew that already, huh?
Is this your first time? - Yes, Sir!
Are you happy? - Yes, Sir.
Who are you going to call?
Oh is it a secret?
No, Sir! I'm calling a friend, Sir!
A female friend?
A dude?
A female friend.
Then you should've called her your girlfriend!
You think someone is going to steal her from you?
No, Sir! She's not my girlfriend yet, Sir!
Yet?!
How far did you go?
-It's not like that, Sir! -You wanna die?
I haven't told her how I feel yet.
How many years have you known her?
-Since I was 8 years old. - 8?!
-Are you joking with me? -No, Sir!
All these years and you haven't told her how you feel or done anything?
What the hell have you been doing?
Let's go.
Excuse me?
-Let's go tell her. -What?
If you don't go right now to tell her,
you will experience a new level of hell.
You got that?
Sir, but this is too sudden-
Would you like to taste the gates of hell now or would you rather go?
Okay, Sir!
Yes, of course. We shouldn't sully the name of Kigang Military Unit.
You know you can't piss off your superior's orders, right?
Shall we go then?
-Hurry up. - Yes, Sir.
Something I haven't been able to do in years,
I'll finally be able to do here over the phone.
I never thought it'd happen like this.
But this could be my chance at last.
Yes, Sir.
You can do it.
You can do it, Kang Baek Ho.
Hello?
What's going on?
I was in the neighborhood and thought of you.
What is it?
You look like you have something to say.
You could tell?
You're too easy.
This is-
Is this for real?
What do you think?
If this actually works,
that means our plans will come true in a few years!
Thanks.
For calling it ours.
Were you planning to do it all by yourself?
No.
I was just trying to do my job well so I wouldn't let down my smart assistant.
I have to go inside.
Get some rest.
I know it's just the beginning, but it's still exciting.
I don't think I'll be able to fall asleep.
How long do you think it'll take for all three organizations to sign off?
2 years? 3?
Do you think you can raise funds that quickly?
Like it's so hard.
Oh Joan of Arc.
You sure have confidence.
Drive safely, boss.
Coach.
Teacher.
Boss.
Don't like any.
Hello?
-Hello? - Is this Yi Seul's?
Is that you, Baek Ho?
It's me, Yi Seul's mom.
Of course.
How have you been? How is your health?
I'm doing well.
Is Yi Seul around by any chance?
Yi Seul?
She left not long ago.
I don't think she went far.
Do you think you can call back later?
No, it's okay. I'll talk to her next time.
Baek Ho!
When Yi Seul went to visit you, I forgot to send you some soy chicken.
I'll make some for you when you come home. When is your break?
I'm not sure yet.
How are you and Mr. Ham doing?
We are all doing well.
Just take care of yourself.
And be careful not to hurt yourself during training.
I will.
Private Kang Baek Ho. I'll speak to you soon.
Okay.
-Take care of yourself, okay? - I will.
Yi Seul came to see me.
Yi Seul already came to visit.
Even though I came back, I missed her again.
'Speak to you soon?'
You are such a pain!
You really have no luck!
How can you even miss her on the phone?
That's why she's still not your girlfriend after all these years.
Aren't you going to apologize?
-I'm sorry, Sir! - You should be!
You should feel sorry as a man.
You disobeyed an order from your army superior, Park Byung Jang!
You should feel very sorry.
I'm embarrassed for you.
I'm sorry, Sir!
I don't care if she wasn't there. You didn't do as I ordered.
So now you need to run out and get me some cigarettes.
-Excuse me? - Ex-what?!
It's an order!
I'll be right back, Sir!
That wretched conductor!
He could've at least sent me to the correct time.
I didn't even get to meet with Yi Seul, and on top of that-
Park Byung Jang?!
I can't believe I have to see that man again!
Kang Baek Ho!
Why the hell did you come back to the army?!
Ah, it's cold!
I'm really sorry.
You think it was easy for me?
No one cared for the interns.
We were treated like dogs.
You have no idea how hard it was and how lonely I felt.
Okay. I know now.
So let's just go home.
It's empty.
I want more alcohol.
Bring me more alcohol!
Don't you know I'm a doctor?
I'm not an intern anymore. I'm a resident now!
I just want to drink some more alcohol. Who do you think you are?!
He has some terrible drinking manners.
Chae Ri.
Do you know how miserable I get when I work at the hospital?
Everyone is in pain or crying.
There's screaming, cutting, stitching.
And on my worst days-
There, him!
A patient who looks as perverted and psychotic as he does comes to the hospital.
I have to write their medical history.
I have to be on duty.
That's why-
That's why I missed you so much!
I wanted to come see you and apologize, but I couldn't even do that.
It's true.
Alright.
Get up. I'll drive you home.
Does that mean we're back together?
You're taking me back, right?
Remember this?
You still carry this around?
I never took it out and always carried it with me.
Inside my hands.
Honey.
Chae Ri!
It's okay. Everything is okay.
Let's get you home.
Try to get up.
Get up.
Tae Nam.
Start the car.
Oh, okay.
Chae Ri!
My Chae Ri!
-I'll be right back. - Drive safely.
My Chae Ri, my Chae Ri...
Is this love?
Does he have to do this?
Is it worth all this?
It is.
You scared me.
I understand how Tae Nam feels.
And I'm always going to support him.
She talks fine.
Sergeant Park!
What are you doing, Sir?
You can't tell by looking?
Do you think I'm playing soccer?
You like baseball?
I used to be a baseball player.
Really? What team did you play for?
-What position did you play? - Did you forget who you're talking to?
I'm sorry, Sir.
You like baseball?
Yes, Sir.
Have you heard of Hanbit Thunders?
Yes.
I used to play for them.
I see.
He's lying.
Punk! Why do you look so surprised?
I wasn't the best player.
I played for Group 2.
Most people can't recognize me.
But players do.
Right.
I've never heard of him in the past or even now.
Do you play baseball?
Yes, a little.
Really?
Most Korean men say they know how to play soccer or baseball.
Do you want to throw?
Yes. Is that yours?
I was the catcher and 4th hitter.
Do you want to throw?
Do you see the circular pile of dirt?
That's the pitcher's mound.
If you can get the ball from here to there,
I'll treat you to ice cream.
-Really? -Of course!
Smile.
Give it a try.
Wait! Hold it!
It can't be just a throw. It has to be a perfect strike!
I'll buy you ice cream only if you throw a strike.
Yes, Sir.
Sergeant Park!
Are you okay?
Are you alright?
Kang Baek Ho.
-What do you do? - I'm Private Kang Baek Ho!
No, I mean, what do you actually do?
I played baseball, Sir!
-You were a pitcher? - That's correct, Sir!
What team did you play for?
Haneul University's baseball team.
Really?
What I said earlier was just a joke.
You know that, right?
Just smile.
Can't you catch the ball one more time?
I really want to throw it.
It's been a while since someone caught my throws.
It felt really good sir.
Really?
It's the first time I've ever been a catcher.
So this is how the pros pitch...
Hey Kang Baek Ho.
Yes, my name is Kang Baek Ho.
Do you want to play baseball with me?
Really? Thank you sir!
But you buy the ice cream.
I never knew it would happen...
That Sergeant Park would catch my throws.
It's something I never thought could happen.
That Sergeant Park and I could become closer.
- Lee Kyung Sun. - Present. Lee Kyung Sun.
- Jung Ji Hyun. - Present. Jung Ji Hyun.
- Choi Chung Hoon. - Present. Choi Chung Hoon.
- Kim Min Suk. - Present. Kim Min Suk.
Here you go.
- Kang Baek Ho! - Present! Kang! Baek! Ho!
This is all yours.
- Really? - In your dreams.
Just this.
- Bang Ho! - Present! Bang Ho!
Why do you have so much?
Are you doing well? How's your health?
I hear it's most difficult when you're a private.
I hope you don't have any superiors who are giving you a hard time.
We're all doing well here.
Hey Kang Baek Ho.
It's her right?
Your valentine.
The soju girl.
Our former teacher quit school,
and he's officially starting his new business.
I'm helping him out with it.
Chan Wook is working hard as an assistant director.
Chae Ri and Tae Nam work part time at an amusement park.
I said we'd hang together at the amusement park once the semester is over.
Everyone's sad that you're not here.
I guess the chances of you getting a vacation won't be possible, right?
But don't worry. I'll party hard on your behalf.
Then take care! Salute!
Wow Ham Yi Seul. This is too much.
Don't you even know I'm here because of you? Amusement park? Are you rubbing it in?
I said we'd hang out together at the amusement park once the semester is over.
Amusement park.
That's where Coach made his move on Yi Seul.
Yeah, that's it.
This is the reason I came back to the past.
No.
I can't let Coach confess his feelings first.
What do I do? What?
Is something wrong?
No sir!
Just tell me.
- Hey Kang Baek Ho! - Private! Kang Baek Ho!
Come see me.
I'm not asking you as a sergeant,
I'm asking you as a batter.
Something's up, right?
At times like this, I'm your batter!
I learned that you shouldn't hide anything among fellow players.
Don't you agree?
Fine. Let's stop this.
I don't want to catch your throws anymore, wasting my fingers away.
I have to leave.
For a special vacation.
There's a reason for it...
I really want to go.
Hey you. You think the army's a joke?
You can't just take a vacation as you please.
If you could leave whenever you want, it's not the army. It's a hotel.
I know, but I still want to go.
Fine.
Fine. It's not as if I can permit you to go on vacation or not anyway.
But let me hear your reason.
Oh you stubborn kid...
That girl...
...is getting married.
If I don't do something...
that girl will marry another man.
That was really scary.
I really thought I was dying.
Next, let's... ride that one!
Let's go stand in line.
If that red light turns green, we may die.
Come on!
It's been such a long time since I've been here, I don't know what to do.
Then what do you feel comfortable doing?
- Exercise. - Exercise?
Exercise you say...
Hey where are we going?
Coach! Are you okay? Coach! Wake up!

Are you sure your girlfriend is here?
What is this?
- Hey guys, have you been well? - Kang Baek Ho.
Seeing her smile...
brings me happiness beyond words.
Here.
What is this?
Ham Yi Seul!
I have something to tell you.
I like you.
