[My Lovely Boxer]

Get up! Come at me!

Get lost!

- Move aside!
- Dad!

["There's no paradise for you
to escape to." By Kentaro Miura]

Sleep some more.

It's okay to sleep more.

I'm Lee Yu Ri.

Except for my habit
of waking up before dawn,

I was perfectly Lee Yu Ri.

A peaceful world...

where I had no expectations
or hardships I couldn't handle.

[Kim Tae Young, Sports and Passion]

I wanted to meet you, Ms. Lee Kwon Sook.

This man crushed my world.

My gosh. I looked everywhere for you.

It's so good to see you
standing right before me.

I don't know who you are,

but you've got the wrong person.

I guess you still box.

You still run every morning.

Don't tell me
you've been following me in secret.

What are you looking at?

I'll report you to the police.

It's been a long time
since you disappeared,

but I see that you're still in shape.

Who are you?

Are you a reporter?

[Sports and Passion, Kim Tae Young]

What's your offer, mister?

Will it be 200,000 dollars?
Or 300,000? A million?

You have no money.

Stop following me around.

I will never go back to the ring.

Wait.

Next time, I won't stop.

You've been warned.

You see,

I'm not trying to do anything here.

I'm here to help you.

Help me?

People at the association
are looking for you.

So?

From reporters to agents,

everyone will swarm here and bother you.

If it gets too much, call me.

I'll help you.

[Sports and Passion, Kim Tae Young]

Take it.

Take it for now. If you deem it useless,
you can then chuck it.

But why would you help me, mister?

Because Lee Kwon Sook is the best boxer,

and I want to work
with the best of the best.

Don't waste your time talking
to everyone who comes here.

Only talk to me.

Because I'm the best.

I'm sorry,

but I'm not Lee Kwon Sook.

I'm Lee Yu Ri.

I moved six times.

I don't want to move anymore.

What a bother he is.

[Central Electronics]

Welcome.

Gosh, you're here early.

There was no traffic jam?

Dad, can you prepare
one more serving of today's special?

Sure.

Why are you still standing there?
Come and sit down.

This is the best restaurant
you will find in Seoul.

Right, Dad?

You're the only one who thinks that.

Sit down.

Where's Chairman Nam?

Goodness. You know, he's such a busy bee.

So I came alone.

I checked out the plan you sent over.

I was quite surprised to see a name
I didn't see coming at all.

So Lee Kwon Sook?

She's a boxer
who was active up until three years ago.

Gosh, you said
you weren't interested in our business.

I was indeed impressed by your choice.
You know?

Here's a thing about match fixing.

Soccer and baseball
draw too much attention.

So sports that are out of the public eye
like boxing are perfect for this.

Could you give me a detailed plan
of what you have in mind?

- Here's some water.
- Okay, Dad.

You can talk freely here.

He's one of Chairman Nam's regulars.

First off,

I'm going to get her to come back
to the ring as soon as possible.

Two, please.

She will play only two matches.

She will win her comeback match.

But she will lose
the world championship title match.

["Exclusive: The Return of a Genius,
Genius Boxer Lee Kwon Sook in Hiding"]

There aren't a lot of
female professional boxers.

She'll be able to participate in
a title match only after two games.

Only two matches? Are you serious?

Think about all the effort
you made to find her.

We won't be able
to make any profit off this.

Then we can raise the stakes.

I get that
Lee Kwon Sook is a famous boxer.

But it won't be easy to do that.

You know that
boxing isn't a popular sport.

This isn't the US.

You know that
she once ran away from the ring.

If the hurdle is too high,
she won't even want to negotiate.

So is she interested
in negotiating a deal?

I'll make it so that signing the deal
is the only option she has.

So it's not because she wants more money?

I think I can sign her
without offering the full amount.

[Title Match]

Do we need her to play two matches?

She can't lose the first one
as soon as she comes back.

Why would people bet big money
on a boxer...

who might not even win?

Well, the chairman...

isn't the patient type.

Are you sure
you can do this in three months?

Three months...

will be enough time.

Let me be honest with you.

Something about this makes me nervous.

The victory in her comeback match
will get people hyped up.

And your plan is to rake in money
with the next match.

It's obviously a plan,
concocted by a novice.

Besides, the boxer will have to take
on a lot of risk for this.

Let's begin.

Pinocchio the marionette

- I like you
- I like you

- One.
- One.

- Two.
- Two.

Go.

If we rig a big game like this
from the beginning,

she won't have a future as an athlete.

Are you sure about this?

- Lee Kwon Sook is still pretty young.
- One, two!

So what?

What's your point?

I'm saying this out of caution.

She's different from Kim Hee Won,
a player whose retirement was nearing.

To end her career like this,

don't you think she's too young
and we're wasting her talent?

That girl...

She might never be able to box again.

She's already quit once.

Isn't she perfect to use and then discard?

How cold-hearted.

Do you have a problem with my plan?

If you're that worried about her,

why don't we stop here?

No.

You do live up to your reputation.

You're a true businessman.

- Can you make space in the middle?
- Sure.

Okay. It's hot.

Here.

Actually,

the tastiest thing we serve is water.

Since it's your first time here,
I'll give you one more bowl of rice.

Gosh. You didn't give me any extra rice.

Come on.

Then enjoy your meal.

Wait. Where are you going?

Eat before you go.

You'll upset them.

Eat up.

Gosh. Thanks for the food.

How is it?

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Cheers.

Hold on a minute.
You haven't told us any good news, Yu Ri.

How did the blind date go?

- What?
- You just flinched.

You must have gotten dumped again.

No, my friend was a jerk.

It turned out he had a girlfriend.

- Gosh.
- I ended up wasting your time. I'm sorry.

You don't have to apologize.

Do you want to go on another date?
I know a great guy.

He works at a gaming company.

And he owns the house he lives in.

Ms. Yu Ri!

Do you want to date my uncle?

He's really handsome.

His nickname is Cha Eun Woo!

Hey, your uncle looks just like you.

Then he must be handsome.

I don't want to go on blind dates.
So stop trying to fix me up.

All right, kids.

You're done with your food.
Let's go and brush your teeth.

Let's go. Come here.

Does she have a crush on someone?

Who?

Who knows?

The sky is the limit
as long as her crush isn't that dreamboat.

[Art Class]

[Teachers at Hodong Kindergarten]

[Dreamboat,
Assistant Director Han Jae Min]

[Superwoman, Assistant Teacher Lee Yu Ri]

I'm not some superhero.

- Yu Ri.
- Yu Ri.

Yes?

You like Mr. Han, right?

What?

Me? No. That's not true.

Of course, you do. I saw your googly eyes.

You've been staring at his picture.

I thought
you were going to make a hole there.

Oh, that? His name tag was crooked.

So I was just fixing that.

That's all.

He's 30 years old, but he still
hasn't gotten his act together.

He's mooching off his mother.

He looks down on us
because he's the son of the director.

We shouldn't be fooled by good looks.
That's the last thing we should do. Okay?

Let's get back to work.

I know that too.

[Assistant Director Han Jae Min]

My goodness.

Why does he keep his desk here?
It takes up so much space.

Yu Ri, don't clean it for him.
Let him do it.

Be nice.

He comes to work
three times a week at most.

He goes camping in the spring,

surfing in the summer,
snowboarding in the winter,

and riding his motorbike all year round.

[hjm_win00]

I wondered what I could do, as an adult,

to ensure the children could always smile,

and I decided to give them...

a yard for them to run around in
and look up at the sky.

They can run freely,

draw on the ground,

and grow produce in the fields.

He's such a talker.

He looks pretty too.

He gets paid regularly.

He should be good at something.

How much is that outfit?

It's his mom's money.

Emotional growth is...

He's nothing without
his smooth talk and pretty looks.

He does nothing for his pay
and uses his mom's credit card.

And still, my heart races
when he's around.

- Yu Ri.
- Yes?

There's ash on your cheek.

- Ash?
- Yes.

Oh, right.

- This side.
- Okay.

It's smudged.

There you go.

My gosh.

That scared me.

I jumped.

Oh, let me.

No, I'll do it.

He's the first man...

who didn't punch me,

Doesn't it look good?

shout in anger, but wiped my face...

with his bare hand.

What are you looking at?

What if we planted flowers over there?

I think the kids would like it.

Flowers? What kind?

We could plant so many kinds.

Marigold. Shasta daisies are pretty too.

Garden nasturtiums are pretty.

So are garden zinnias.

Pansies are cute with their short stems.

It has a nice message.

"Please love me."

You must like flowers.

Yes. A lot.

My mom liked them.

You must be a lot like her.

She must've been pretty too.

Yes.

Flower names are quite hard to remember.

Marigold.

It means...

Look.

"Happiness that is bound to come."

I like what marigolds mean. Don't you?

Yes.

If we were to plant some,
the parents would like it.

Thanks, Yu Ri.

Table eight, drinks one and seven.

Table eight, drinks one and seven.

- Table three?
- Yes.

Ah Reum, can I have a word?

Yes. Table three, your order's coming.

- Here you go.
- What would you recommend?

I think the Belgian...

- You're off soon, right?
- Yes.

So am I. What do you do later?

Why do you want to know?

I just want to.

- Mr. Manager.
- Yes?

Do you want to do something with me?

You're outspoken and direct.

Well, there's no need to waste time.

I don't mind hanging out,
but it won't be fun.

You don't mind hanging out?

I don't.

But anything physical like kissing's a no.

Who'd do that on the first date?

I'm not that kind of guy.

Can we do what I want to do?

What?

Yes. Let's do what you want.

Okay, then.

Jab...

Jab...

One, two, three, four.

Forward and backward.

Okay, now punch.

Come on. One, two.

Guards up.

Guard.

Do it properly.

Hey, face me.

Come on.

Hit this.

Ah Reum has a weird hobby, doesn't she?

She got rid of about 20 guys this way.

No, exactly 28.

This guy paid for three months in advance.

A single payment too.

And go. One...

I didn't force him to.

He wanted to appeal to Ah Reum.
Why would I stop him?

- You shouldn't.
- Pace lightly and go.

Guard up.

One, two, three, four.

Keep it tight.

When can I send out the article?

Give me a rough date at least.

Because of you,

I postponed the show
to write this up first.

Wait just one week.

That long?

What if word gets out
and someone else writes about it?

Who else would catch wind?

You'll get your exclusive.

Hey, I have to hang up.

- Okay.
- Let's talk again tomorrow.

Mr. Kim, long time no see.

[Battery]

First floor.

What are you doing?

Hey, you're back.

She won't wake up.

Shall I get her a cab?

You can't send her off
when she's this drunk.

Ms. Jung, wake up.

Soo Yeon.

Will you leave me alone?

It's Tae Young.

Tae Young, I'm here to see you.

Why did you drink so much?

Let's get you up on your feet.

No, get a grip and stand up.

Why are you so frigid?

It's me, Jung Soo Yeon.

The golfing empress.

- Hey.
- What?

If you want a promotion,

complete fair and square and perform well.

- Yes, that's right.
- What's right?

Do you think you can beat me?

- Let go.
- No.

Gosh. She still buys fruit
whenever she visits.

You guys broke up ages ago.

Peeling mandarins...

brings back memories.

You know what Soo Yeon used to say.

Fruit stores reminded her...

of your mom,
so she just had to buy something.

That was long ago.

If she were to know
she got drunk and visited her ex...

She'd want to hit herself.

I wonder how she'll manage tomorrow.

Wake her up in the morning
and send her to work.

What?

You're going to bed already?

I haven't visited in a while.

Don't you know the term "miracle morning?"

It's the secret to my success.

You can't sleep in because you're old.

Darn him.

Ms. Lee!

You lied when you said
you didn't want to return.

Be honest.
You want to box again, don't you?

So you're trying to stay in shape.

I'm not running because I want to.

- Go away.
- Why run if you don't want to?

It makes no sense.

It hurts when I don't run.
That's why I do it.

It hurts when you don't run?

Is there a disease like that?

It's just the way my body is.

My dad put the curse on me.

I must say, you're so nice.

You're answering every question I ask.

Leave me alone.

Shall I call the cops on you?

It must've been hard.

I get it.

I was a baseball player in high school,

so I know how hard it is.

Gosh, it really is awful.

In winter, you have to
freeze your buttocks off. And in summer...

It's so hot that you can't breathe.

What?

Hello.

- Hi.
- Hi, you're here.

Yes!

Oh, boy.

Have you eaten?

I just had some milk.

Good girl.

Good. Never leave the house
on an empty stomach.

Take this.

Yes.

Thank you.

- Gosh, how adorable.
- I'll be off, then.

All right. Keep it up.

Okay!

Do you like candy?

Oh, no. Then it'll be hard for you
to watch what you eat.

You put on such an angelic smile
in front of that lady earlier.

How much will you get paid
if you persuade me to return to the ring?

Will you get 10,000 dollars?

Or 20,000 dollars?

Come on. Why are you asking me this?

I'll give you the money.

I have money.

I get pension benefits
thanks to my medals.

I received prize money
from the association too,

and I've saved some of the money I earned
from my part-time jobs.

How much do you want?

How much do you think I'd want?

Don't smirk like that.
I'm dead serious right now.

I will never go back to the ring,
no matter what.

And I don't want to move again.

I'd hate to look for a new job,

and I cannot change my name again.

- So how much?
- I'm expensive.

How much?

Two and a half million.

Oh, no. You don't have that kind of money?

I got excited for no reason.

Then you have no choice.

Let's run together like this
every morning...

until you change your mind.

It's like a trend these days.
You know, a running crew.

Thanks to you, I get to exercise.

And you won't be lonely.

I said I would never return to the ring.

Over my dead body!
My mom died because of boxing.

Do not follow me.

If you follow me, you're dead meat.

Yes.

Ms. Lee, did you receive the first draft
of Lee Kwon Sook's contract?

Tae Young said he sent it just now.

Hold on. Let me check.

Yes. A hospital?

Sure, I'll look into it
and let you know right away.

A hospital? Someone's hurt again?

No. He said to find the hospital
where Lee Kwon Sook's mother was.

Lee Kwon Sook's mother?

Yes.

Lee Kwon Sook?
The Lee Kwon Sook we all know?

Hey.

Why did you come to my office
so early in the morning?

You're not welcome here. Also...

why didn't you knock?

I heard you were looking
for Jang Jae Hee's batting gloves.

My gosh. You found them?

I couldn't find any in Korea.

I have a habit
of buying these things in bulk.

Oh, my. I should call Jang.

If you need more, just let me know.

Will do. Thank you.

Did you not go home last night?

Goodness. You reek of alcohol.

So I guess Kim is...

helping Lee Kwon Sook
prepare for her comeback.

Gosh, you smell like booze.

Why do you need to know that?
It's none of your business.

Stop making my office smell like booze.

Get out at once.

- Get out. Now!
- Am I right?

Gosh, you stink.

Go. Get out! Did you have soju last night?
Hurry up and go.

My goodness.

How much did she drink last night?
I feel like I'm tipsy now.

Gosh, I feel dizzy.

Ms. Lee!

Stopping suddenly like this
only makes it harder.

It makes your temperature drop.
What if you catch a cold?

Why are you so late?

Good morning!

All right. Today,

let's do some weaving while running.

All right! Like this.

Are you trying to wave away mosquitoes?

Gosh, you know nothing about boxing.

You know nothing about me.

I used to manage a boxer.

Estomata of Korea.

Then go to him.

Stop bugging me.

Lee Kwon Sook is right before my eyes.

Why would I go to someone else?

I will persuade Lee Kwon Sook
to go back to the ring!

Hey, good morning!

Hi!

Hey!

What are you waiting for? Start running.

Were you waiting for me?

Nice. One, two, one, two.

The left foot!

Try weaving a little too.

And throw some jabs!

sh**t.

[Safety Guidelines for Step-Stone Bridge]

Did you have breakfast?

- Yes.
- Yes, we did.

Take this.

Thank you.

That lollipop. Do you get one every day?

You don't eat it, do you?

I must eat sweets after I run.

If I don't, I might pass out.

I'm addicted to sugar.

Come on.
I think you're just eating it to show me.

I must say, you look like
you do need to lose some weight.

How dare you scan me up and down?

You're 4kg overweight
for your weight class, right?

No, I'm 40kg overweight.

What do you say? Do you want to experience
a heavyweight boxer's punch?

One iced Americano, please.

I'll pay with this card.

Put it on this card.

And one more iced Americano
with an extra shot.

What's with you today? You're scaring me.

I heard you found Lee Kwon Sook.

What? Come on. Who said that?

The show hasn't even hit the air yet.

Don't be like this.

I know you teamed up with Kim Tae Young
and tracked her down.

Where is she?

Let's exchange some valuable intel.

Come on. I can't tell you.

I can't betray my partner's trust.

The most prominent free agent
of the year, Yang Jae h*.

I'll give you an exclusive scoop.

Now, what do you say?

Deal.

Deal.

What's going on this morning?

He's going to plant flowers over there.

I'm talking about the assistant director
who comes to work three days a week.

Flowers?

We didn't even finish farming the field
in the back.

He's not expecting us to water them,
right?

What? Aren't those boxes of flowers?

Of course, they are.

The assistant director
is blowing money again. Gosh.

But flowers are pretty at least.

And kids will like them too.

Let's go inside.

It smells like my mom.

You must be a lot like her.

She must've been pretty too.

"Happiness that is bound to come."

I like what marigolds mean. Don't you?

A secret between the assistant director
and me has bloomed here.

Great.

Come on. How big of a legend
are you trying to be now?

I may not be the starting pitcher,

but the least I can do
is not let my team down.

I have a job thanks to them.

Gosh. Come on. Don't be like that.

You're a legend. Don't downplay it.

Gosh.

Just the two of us being here...

brings back old memories.

You struck out a lot of players
on that field right there.

And the team won the Korean Series
back to back.

It was great, wasn't it?

I'm sorry.

You went to that jerk...

and told him
you would take responsibility for it.

I went to Reporter Park a few days ago.

I was going to tell him everything I did.

But what?

But I just couldn't bring myself to do it.

Why did you go see him
if you couldn't even go through with it?

Are you trying to ruin your life for good?

I went to him because I was frustrated.

When I came back to my senses,
I couldn't believe what I had done.

I'm ashamed to face my son.
And I put you in a tight spot too.

I thought going to prison
after coming clean...

would make me feel at ease.

If you go to prison,

what will happen to Ye Jun?
What about his eyes?

You'll let him go blind?

Hee Won, just lie low.

Don't get involved and make a mess...

unless you're trying to ruin your life.

I'm going to clean this up.

If you're truly sorry,

finish the season without injury...

and retire
when your team still respects you.

And think about
how you'll retire in style.

Got it?

Where are you?

Hey, there will be a traffic jam
in Gangnam around this time of the day.

Okay.

Even if I'm late,
be a good girl and wait for me there.

Okay. Me too.

Are you going to water them?

Yes. Are you getting off work?

Why are you doing it?

We can get the workers to do it.

I just wanted to water them.

But that must be heavy.

Look. Your clothes got wet.

What is it?

Then why don't you carry it for me?

What? Me?

Gosh, I can't.

Then you should just go.

Give it to me. I'll do it.

Let me. Gosh. What is this?

Why is this so heavy?

Did I just get some muscles?

All of a sudden?

I had to carry the bucket many times.

I don't want a muscle imbalance.

How are you getting home?

I'm taking the local bus.

If it's on the way, I can drive you.

Which neighborhood is it?

You have someone waiting for you.

A good girl who will wait
even if you're late.

Right.

You pointed that out without a heads-up.

Fine. Then let's take a rain check.

I'll drive you
when no one's waiting for me.

You don't mind, right?

I'll think about that when the time comes.

Yu Ri!

Gosh.

I'm sorry. I should have called ahead.

I was in the neighborhood.

And I really missed you.

I see. Is he your colleague?

Yes, sort of.

- Who is he?
- Oh, me?

I went on a blind date with her
a while ago.

And we've been exercising together
every morning lately.

A morning exercise?

Mr. Han, I'll get going first.

Drive safely.

Let's go. Hurry up.

See you around.

Are you trying to ruin my life?

A blind date?

You missed me?

Ridiculous.

I see. You like the assistant director.

No wonder you came here
without complaining.

What? Seriously.

You're going to want to thank me.
But don't.

Men get more anxious
when they see competition.

What are we doing here?

What's this?

Read it and give me some feedback.

I'll manage 2 games in the next 3 months
after you come back to the ring.

The sponsorship deals for the matches,
commercials, product planning, and so on.

You will get the best treatment
in the industry.

How many times must I say this?

I'm done with boxing.

Go anywhere in the world.

But you won't be able to find
a deal better than this.

If you want to add more conditions,
let me know.

Do you not understand me?

I'm done with boxing.

Why not?

Because of your mother?

Stop using your mother as an excuse.

You're 23. You're not that young anymore.

Are you done?

I went to the nursing home
where your mother was admitted.

I was told that she had a chronic disease.

And she passed away peacefully...

in the presence of her family.

You're using her as an excuse
because you don't want to box.

Aren't you ashamed
to face your late mother?

What do you know about my mother?

The day you promised came and went.

What about the Lee Kwon Sook article?

[Kim Tae Young]

[What about the Lee Kwon Sook article?]

Send the Lee Kwon Sook article.

Eleven hours until the press release.

Okay.

[They're cautiously working out details.]

[Exclusive: Return of the Genius!]

[Lee Kwon Sook, The Boxer Who Vanished]

What? A reporter from where?

There's no teacher here with that name.

- Hodong Kindergarten.
- You can't keep calling us.

None of our teachers are into boxing.

- Hodong Kindergarten.
- You got the wrong number.

Goodbye.

- Sorry.
- Can you not call us?

- None of the teachers boxes.
- How many times must I say so?

Hodong Kindergarten.

Yes, goodbye.

No, sorry.

Attention, everyone.

Don't answer
any of the reporters' questions,

and call the parents
of all your students in person.

Okay?

- Yes.
- Yes.

What's up with him?
He's not the guy I knew.

I know.

Yu Ri was Lee Kwon Sook.

That's why she was so strong.

- What's going on?
- What's the time?

- Hey.
- The school bus is here!

- Let's go.
- Wait!

Can you open the door? Let us in.

- I'm scared.
- It's okay, kids. It's nothing.

Ms. Yu Ri.

Who is Lee Kwon Sook?

Can we not go to class?

What are the grown-ups doing?

It's okay. Nothing's wrong.

What should we do? They're scared.

I'll get out first so you can drive in.

Are you sure about that?
What if you get hurt?

- I'll open the door.
- Come outside!

- She got up.
- Open the door!

Wait. Open the door!

You read the article, didn't you?

Is it true you signed
with S and P to return?

Why were you hiding here?

Do you know who you're up against?

Is anything decided yet?

Will you take on Han Ah Reum?

It's okay.

Be quiet. The kids are crying!

Get out of the way.

Get out of the way.

Get out of the way.

[Exclusive: Return of the Genius!
Lee Kwon Sook, The Boxer Who Vanished]

Well?

Should we show Ah Reum or not?

Won't she have seen it?

Shall I comfort her?

Or curse with her?

Curse with her if she curses,

and if she goes too far, comfort her.

What's that?

Cater to how she feels.

Okay.

Is Young Sik...

still putting up wallpaper?

Yes.

There aren't many matches these days.

He has to pay for baby formula.

Coach.

Can you find me a guy
to spar with next time?

To warm up.

Okay, why not?

Will you set her up with my brother?

Ah Reum, can you beat him to a pulp?

Which part, exactly?

Name any part of the body.

Ah Reum.

Ah Reum!

[3 years ago]

Hey.

You've been in there for days.

Will you leave me alone?

Your mother came to me in tears.

You need to eat to live.

You must live to get your belt back.

Are you sulking
because you lost a stupid belt?

"A stupid belt?"

It was the WBC belt!

I lost two molars trying to win that!

What about you?

You took out loans...

just to pay for the match.

So what?

Where's your pride?

You used to be a world champion!

Why lock yourself up and cry...

over a kid who fled from a match?

I wasn't crying over her.

I felt bad about what you went through.

What?

Why would you feel bad for me?

We can start over.

Let's get the belt back.

It'll take just a year.

What if we can't?

What do you think talent is?

It's not giving up.

And you...

You have that.

We can try again.

We can get it back.

What did the director say?

Until things calm down,

I should take time off.

I apologize.

I disrupted everyone's class.

You don't have to apologize to me.

I think the teachers
and kids were shocked.

Some kids even had fits during class.

I apologize.

It's not your fault.

All the people who came here are at fault.

Don't be too upset.

If you must take a break,
you might as well enjoy it.

Don't worry about us here.

Okay.

Take your time.

Step up carefully. Watch your step
and the person in front of you.

That's it. Climb up carefully.

Carefully and slowly.

Yu Ri.

I'll go on my own today.

I have to explain to the parents...

and apologize for what happened.

It would be much easier
if you weren't there.

Okay. I'm sorry.

It was a long, crazy day.

Why didn't you even tell me?

See you.

[Hodong Kindergarten]

Wear your seat belts.

- Isn't this the place?
- This should be it.

I heard she had gone into hiding.
What is going on?

- Why isn't she here yet?
- Maybe she's already here.

Oh! Hey, look. Isn't that Lee Kwon Sook?

- Yes, I think it's her.
- Right?

- She's here. Lee Kwon Sook!
- Get her!

- Stop!
- Kwon Sook, wait!

Get her on camera!

Wait!

- Go, hurry!
- Get her!

- Stop! Let's talk!
- Lee Kwon Sook!

- One moment! Wait up!
- Kwon Sook!

- Why is she so fast?
- Wait!

- I've never seen a woman run this fast.
- Wait! Let's talk!

- Could we please interview you?
- Go, hurry.

Hurry! Get her!

- Wait!
- My gosh.

Wait!

Come here.

Darn it.

- Where is she?
- Where did she go?

You jerk.

It was you.

You did this, didn't you?

If I can get you to sign the papers,

I'll do even worse stuff than this.

Like I said, I'd never go back.

I told you I would never go back
to the ring! Never!

You'll have to go back
unless you drop dead.

I will make you go back.

Then shall I just drop dead?
Is that what you want?

Go ahead and die, then.

That way, I can move on to someone else...

and stop wasting my time like this.

You crazy scumbag.

What do you get out of this?

Money?

My life.

Cut the nonsense.

You evil jerk.

If you follow me, I will k*ll you.

It's pointless to run away.

You can't get out of this.

I told you not to follow me.

Just 3 months would do. Only 2 games.

Just do that,
and I'll get out of your hair for good.

Get lost, will you?

Ms. Lee.

If I give up,

do you think this misery will end?

Even if I leave you alone,
someone else will come.

If that person leaves,
someone else will show up.

After that,
someone else will come for you.

You can keep running, but people
will find you over and over again.

Why? Because you beat Estomata.

Boxing is your fate.
You can never run away from it.

I'll put my life on the line
to make sure you can't run away!

[Dongil Police Station]

[Report]

Sir, let me ask you just once more.

Are you sure
this lady was the one who hit you?

My jaw was dislocated.

I got folded in half.

Then I floated in the air
and fell to the ground.

Shut it, will you?

Be quiet. You did nothing to be proud of.

You did hit him, right?

Yes.

It requires three weeks of treatment.
That's quite serious.

So you won't settle?

No. Never.

If you refuse to settle,
it'll get complicated.

Ms. Lee, you'll be indicted.

Settle it with him, or the case
will be handed over to the prosecution.

You know what that means, right?

Hey!

You can't do that here.

Hello, Officers.

Goodness, how...

Are you all right?

A professional boxer
should never hit people.

I'm going to go ahead
and publish an exclusive on you.

Gosh, what are you going to do?

What if it scars?

Let me get the door for you.

Oh, boy. Are you all right? Be careful.

A boxer should never punch
ordinary people like us.

It could provide grounds
for additional punishment.

Kim, how many weeks?

Three weeks?

Then you'd have nothing to say even if
you ended up behind bars for as*ault.

Hey, Kim. You went too easy on her.

Anyhow,
you'll become famous again, Ms. Lee.

You'll either make a successful comeback
and end up in the sports section...

or see your name
among crime news headlines...

as an ex-boxer
who beat up an innocent civilian.

Make your choice wisely!

Gosh, poor you.

At this rate, you'll die
while trying to persuade her to return.

What if all our efforts end up in vain?

Gosh, she seemed very feisty.

She's still a kid though.

I'm sure
it was enough to scare her at least.

Let's go.

Wait. They haven't called you, have they?

Kim Hee Won. They've decided to oust him.

What?

I heard it from someone on the inside.

They'll announce it officially soon.

Darn it.

You'll announce the decision
when the season isn't even over yet?

Are you trying
to make him a franchise star...

so he can't retire from Cheetahs?

"Star?"

If it were any other team,
he'd be a backup player forever.

He's a pro
when it comes to bases on ba*ls.

- Why couldn't he do it when I told him...
- You jerk.

Are you really his manager?

The match fixing failed,

so he fell out of favor with you.
That's why you're kicking him out!

Fine.

I admit that I can't stand him.

It's all true,

but he needs to be treated.

His shoulders are all messed up.

His shoulders, not his elbows.

When will he undergo surgery
and make a comeback?

When he's 40?

Is he Park Chul Soon?
Does he think he's Song Jin Woo?

Gosh.

This is on the house. Enjoy.

Thank you.

Hey, Battery!

I'll wait for you.

You're confident
that you'll get picked, right?

Yes, of course.
Who else will go there, if not me?

Keep your promise.

- running away would solve everything.
- Make a circle.

- Lee Yu Ri is over there.
- Let's tie the herring

- Let's tie the herring

- That's it.
- And I'm here.

Where do you want to go?

I'll get you there.

Get lost before I smash
the right side of your chin.

I'll help you.

Come on, I'll help you!

I'll make sure no one comes to you,

so you won't have to hide anymore.

I'll help you quit boxing
for the rest of your life!

Stop lying.

At the end of the day,
you want to take advantage of me too.

You're doing this because you need money!
I know that too!

You can use me too then!

Let's go back to the ring.

I'll get you the biggest match ever.

Then you can lose and retire afterward.

If you lose,
you will no longer be a genius boxer.

The world doesn't remember losers!

No one will come to you or bother you.

Do you think that's going to work?

I'll make that happen.

I'll help you. So you should help me too.

If you do this, you won't have
to live as Lee Kwon Sook anymore.

You'll be 23-year-old Lee Yu Ri.

A girl who falls in love
and goes on with her normal life.

Wasn't that the place...

you wanted to go all along?

I mean it.

I'll help you.

I will...

take you there.

To the place you want to go.

[My Lovely Boxer]

[3 years ago]

How's Kwon Sook feeling?

What if she loses the match?

You don't know anything about boxing.

- Lee Kwon Sook will win.
- Lee Kwon Sook will win.

Han Ah Reum will win.

She's out of it.

Who do you think will win?

Gosh. She couldn't have picked
a worse time to pass away.

Sit back down.

I really don't want her to lose.

- Hey, stop it.
- Hey, don't be ridiculous.

Have you ever seen her lose a fight?

No.

You think she lost her focus?
She can get it back.

Are you okay?

Quit asking me that. Just drink.

At my mother's wake,

no one talked about her.

My mom was gone.

Without her in the world,
I had no reason to box anymore.

I took my mom with me...

and ran away.

Kwon Sook is in great shape.
Too great, if you ask me.

But who's going to fight her
in the first round?

I bet you want to smack me.

She's not an athlete.
She's more like a performer.

She earns money with the attention
she gets, not with the boxing matches.

Do you have to rig the game?

You're that infamous son of a witch.

How did you sweet-talk my daughter
into doing this?

Do you have something on her?
Did you threaten her or something?

I won't say anything. Don't worry.

I'm asking you a question. Answer me now!

Staying at hotels can be risky too.

Stay here for the time being.

With you?

I don't like this either.
It's uncomfortable for me too.

Are you crazy?

Didn't Mr. Kim Tae Young...

tell you he would take you
to the place you wanted to go?

That's what he does.

He has the athletes under his thumb.

And he does whatever he wants
to do with them.

Have you given it some thought?

I won't do it.

Can I...

really trust you?
