DIRECTED BY SHIN YEON-SHICK
SONG KANG-HO
PARK JEONG-MIN
Diameter, 20.5 cm.
Weight, 270 grams.
Max speed 120 km/hour.
Average time to opposite court, about 0.5 sec?
To one determined to win, that weight and speed are like the universe.
And victory?
It is to reach beyond the universe and conquer that weight and speed.
That is volleyball. The speed! The thrill!
Baseball?
Holding bats, sending signs, lounging around...
Basketball?
Sweaty bodies colliding... Not in volleyball.
The ball shoots up, you hit and block!
0.5 seconds. Everything depends on that half second.
When do we get to play?
You just started yesterday, what's the hurry?
I don't want to watch videos anymore.
You've only watched two.
Do you complain about studying in baseball class too?
Hey, stop fighting.
- But you kept doing it! - Hey, we're in class!
Don't fight, okay?
Hey!
ONE WIN
Yes, top volleyball star Sung Yu-ra
is being transferred from Pink Storm to Black Queens.
This trade included most of the main players, correct?
Yes, Pink Storm is practically in the process of disbanding.
- Director Ban! - The owner was behind this.
Director!
What's going on?
I'll call you back.
You're all here.
Why aren't we being traded?
We wouldn't be able to sell the club.
Without Sung Yu-ra, our club is trash!
Our club is third in the league, so we're not trash.
- It's the owner. - Take it.
Hello?
What did you...
What?
You sold the club?
KIM WOO-JIN'S VOLLEYBALL CLASS IS CLOSING
How can you charge for a lesson like that?
Heard our kids didn't even play, they watched videos all day.
I'm sorry, ma'am. I refunded your fee this morning.
So sorry!
I refunded all the money for this month's lessons.
Yeah? Good work.
Stand tall.
That's how life is, with valleys and mountains.
And then on the way, you I'll come across a peak.
Shit, it fell again.
Coach!
Director Ban? What brings you here?
- You shut down again? - Shut up, punk.
Hey, everyone says Pink Storm is breaking up.
We got sold today.
Who would buy that team? Who's going to coach?
Listen, would you like to meet the new owner?
Me? Why?
Isn't that Bang Su-ji? Did she retire?
No, she's been a sub for 20 years now.
That takes talent, too.
Coach, over here.
Boss?
Oh?
Coach!
Nice to meet you!
This is our club owner Kang Jung-won.
You meet with coaches at clubs?
I do most of my meetings at clubs. Have a seat.
Yes, please sit.
Mr. Kim coached at Sungshim High and at Shinshin Girls' Middle School.
- He didn't win there... - I like that about him.
Coach, I see from your record,
you've accomplished nothing, right?
Sorry?
Shinshin Girls', national semi-finalists the previous year,
was eliminated at the regional quarterfinals.
And as soon as you went to Sungshim, their team disbanded?
As a player, you never made it into college or pro teams.
Dismissed, expelled, bankrupt, and kicked out...
Divorced, even? This is great!
What's great about any of that?
Your lifetime winning percentage as a coach is less than 10%.
Will something bad happen if we win?
Well, no...
We just need to win once.
Once?
Not twice, just once?
Coach, you know the movie Rocky? With Sylvester Stallone.
Did Rocky win or lose?
Rocky, the boxer?
Didn't he win? He's a champion.
Rocky lost.
He lost. But people don't remember that.
Why not?
They didn't care about him winning or losing.
They like an underdog. They want to see the loser's effort and spirit.
People eat this kind of stuff up. You get it?
Let me discuss this with Director Ban a minute...
Let's talk here. Coach!
Director Ban, how did you fall so far?
He's a total nutcase.
In a way, he is a total nutcase.
He's completely crazy.
You think he'll accomplish anything?
Coach, this is for your ears only.
Next year I'll join Deokjin University as sports director.
You should coach a college team.
Me? A college team?
Why are you telling me this now?
It you have pro team experience, they treat you much better.
Just kill a year with me here then let's go.
Oh! Alright!
Hey, it's her.
No Black Queens for her! Sung Yu-ra's minion.
- I can hear you. - You're supposed to.
It was clearly meant for her.
Yu-ra was our team's ace. Is it so weird to adapt to her?
- You adapted your whole lite to her. - Snap out of it, Yu-ra's gone.
You all played as starters thanks to her.
- We earned it with our skill! - Don't compare yourself to us!
What do you mean, skill? You washed her underwear!
Are you out of your mind?
- We weren't her minion like you! - You wanna die?
- Say that to Yu-ra's face. - Bring her!
- Someone stop her! - What's going on?
Hey! Stop it!
- Our club was just sold! - What?
After rumors of disbandment, Pink Storm has found a new owner!
KANG JUNG-WON BUYS PINK STORM
It is Kang Jung-won
second son of the DAEO Group chairman!
GOING BACK TO NATURE He criticized the evils of capitalism and pledged to donate his fortune.
- But that didn't last, did it? - You're right.
WHY SAVE? YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE His new pledge to spend his fortune and die in 10 years caused a stir.
Is there a reason why you took over Pink Storm?
It was cheap.
What?
Do you have any goals for this season?
Selling out?
Excuse me?
Selling out our season tickets!
What are you doing here?
Why are you here? This is the only time I can have fun.
The season's starting soon!
Pink Storm will break up anyway. Where would I even go?
I'll collect my pay another year or two, then retire.
What would your coach say to see you now?
We don't have a coach now!
I'm your coach.
Oh? Congrats!
Pink Storm's newly appointed coach Kim Woo-jin
used to be Coach Moon Oh-sung's...
Mom, does Dad still coach?
But Coach Moon transferred to Jeil High right after the quarterfinals.
Will their bad blood continue in the pro leagues?
The 32nd National Volleyball Competition Yes, that's Coach Moon Oh-sung.
This is the last offense. Let's keep it simple.
Shinyoung High Coach, MOON Oh-sung
Kim Woo-jin, back B or in-between B?
Shinyoung High Setter, KIM Woo-jin
Back B.
All right, back B!
- Let's do this! - Fighting!
Get in position!
High, high!
Get it!
- High! - Jump!
The opposite team is going for back B.
What should we do, Coach?
In-between B.
Your dad got his school to the quarterfinals.
But Coach Moon left him.
He wanted to win, so he went to another team.
We went to the quarterfinals!
Why are you abandoning us?
The quarterfinals is your limit.
We didn't train for long, and our school didn't back us!
Failures fail for a reason.
They blame the world and come up with excuses.
We can win, too!
Win, then.
Give us a chance!
Coach!
Sure enough... No one would be training.
Aren't you Kang Ji-sook, MVP of Myungshin Girls' Middle School?
Yes.
Wow!
You came to Pink Storm?? But what are you doing now?
- Cleaning up equipment. - You should be training right now.
What was your success rate in setting last year?
I didn't play last year.
Why not? Were you injured?
What about the year before?
I haven't played once in the last six years.
Six whole years? Why?
I guess I'm not good enough.
If not, then improve.
I'm sorry.
- I'm not asking for an apology. - I'm sorry.
Is sorry your middle name? What is this place?
Boss, the season starts soon but there's a lot we still need.
Performance analysts, trainers, an outside hitter,
opposite hitter, middle blocker.
I can't understand you. Those words are new and unfamiliar.
We don't have enough players. No one with Division 1 experience.
Then buy such players.
- We're running out of funds. - Then sell a player.
But we need money because we lack players.
Then let's sell a bundle of the cheap players.
It we had players to sell, I wouldn't have brought this up.
Don't be so negative!
Huh?
If you look, you'll find one. Give me that.
Here you go.
What position are we strong in?
- Our liberos are pretty good. - What team has weak liberos?
- Five Stars' liberos are weak. - Five Stars? Oh-sung?
Yes.
He's a doormat to me.
Hello? Hey, it's me.
I heard your liberos are weak?
We've got decent liberos. I'll sell them for half a million.
Too expensive? You spend more on alcohol.
- So, no deal? - No deal!
Okay. How's your wife?
Not that one. Your other wife.
What if that wife found out about the other one?
Okay, I'm announcing it now!
I sold the liberos.
This is how rich men do business.
Bravo.
Most of our remaining players have never played in Division 1.
It's fine! We'll just do the bare minimum for one year.
What else did you say we need?
An international recruit and an interpreter.
Look for a Korean-Japanese player.
- Korean-Japanese? - Yes.
We'll win at least once, right?
You know Five Stars, and Super Girls?
Their liberos, defense, and bench players are all terrible.
If we just save up our stamina, about 5 rounds in,
we're sure to beat one of them. Know why?
We've got decent liberos.
Choi Mi-yeon and Bok In-kyung will win once in a game of stamina.
This is Director Ban!
Choi Mi-yeon and Bok In-kyung have been sold to Five Stars.
Choi Mi-yeon, Bok In-kyung! Pack your bags.
Yoo Ha-ni? She was first in last year's draft?
- She's been suspended. - You said we don't have players?
She's got serious problems with her attitude.
So do I.
She started a fire smoking in the dressing room.
Buy her an e-cigarette!
Exactly.
Did I hear that right?
Why would we sell the liberos?
Hey, didn't you say you had a player you aren't using?
What's her name? Yeah. Can we get her for free?
Who in the world would give us a player for free?
You can send her right away?
I'm the grateful one. Thank you!
We've got a new player.
Who?
Why would you sell the liberos? They were our only decent players!
Hello, Coach!
Calm down. I got another player.
Who? Some other weirdo?
What was her name? Oh Bo-ra?
Oh Bo-ra? I heard that name somewhere.
Yes, the Oh Bo-ra who was suspended for violence...
The one who looks like a gangster?
She doesn't look like a gangster, she really is a gangster.
Why bring in some freak?
You wanted one win? If you do this, I can't.
Let's go talk this over...
Are you mocking me because I have no pro experience?
Then why'd you buy the club? Why make me the coach?
I told you, I really like your life story!
I've done volleyball for over 30 years!
I've fought with all I had to win. That's what a volleyball player is!
Why screw around with our sport?
Who says I'm screwing around?
- Now you're getting mad? - I'm serious!
I can't promise a winning team, but I'll make a team that'll sell!
How will they sell if they can't win?
That's why I asked you to win just once!
You said you can win once even while slacking off.
Are we a product to you?
- Why only think about selling? - Did I say I'm selling a product?
- Then what are you selling? - Your life story!
- Do you understand this man? - The players' story!
- Boss... - It sounds great!
Please calm down.
Let's talk this over.
Do you understand what he's saying?
- Let's talk outside. - Where'd you get those sunglasses?
So cool.
- Let us go talk. - Hey, come with me.
What the hell does he think he's doing?
Coach, please calm down.
Look, we won't even win against high school kids!
It's not that bad.
Not that bad? They'll even lose against middle schoolers!
- Director Ban. - Yes?
If it weren't for Coach Moon Oh-sung,
I'd have been on the national team.
Of course!
I'd be managing a college team if I kissed up like everyone else!
Yes, you would!
I'll bring you to Deokjin University soon.
Deokjin University? Oh yes, that's right.
- The vice chancellor loves fishing. - Oh, yeah?
I'll schedule a day for us to go fishing.
- What's this? - Fishing?
It's from Deokjin University! I'll fix a day for us!
- Is he good at fishing? - Really good.
Deokjin University has a good team.
Right, I forgot about Deokjin University.
Deok-deok-deok!
- Su-ji! - Where's Su-ji? She's here!
Sis! Oh Bo-ra! She's really here!
That bitch is really here?
Please keep her in line!
Bok-ja, I can't keep her in line!
Please...
- It's really her... - Where's my locker?
Bo-ra...
Hello.
Is he a coach or a spectator?
Isn't that annoying? Bo-ra. Don't hold back.
What is Coach doing?
Is he a coach or a fisherman?
- Man-to-man. - Man-to-man!
- I heard you made a pledge. - Yes.
With our first win,
we'll divide $2 million among 100 of our season ticket holders.
$2 million?
I heard the price for a season ticket will be high?
A bit pricey.
Probably the most expensive in men's or women's volleyball, $1,000.
Are you surprised?
But with $1,000, you can earn $20,000.
Besides that, we'll provide the best fan service.
You won't be disappointed.
- She's the international recruit? - Yes.
- Did the owner pick her? - Yes.
- Where are you from? - Japan.
Japan...
- Libero? - Yes.
- That's right. Give her a test. - Test? Okay.
That's good! You can stop.
Why is she so good? Why would she come here?
The owner just thought her photo looked cute.
Why are you here? Why not play in Japan?
Bullies.
Where's the owner?
He's in a meeting...
Hey, owner!
Why can anyone barge in here?
I'm here, why?
What's up with the international recruit?
She speaks Korean!
Get someone new right away.
I'm glad you're all here.
Your training uniforms are here.
Thank you, everyone. Please write nice articles about us.
What's going on?
Woo, help me.
- Ugh! - What's that?
I'll show you.
Ta-da!
- Seriously? - Oh Bo-ra.
Flaming Bo-ra?
Unstoppable Su-ji?
This is embarrassing!
- What is this? - Huh?
She's...
What the hell?
Step aside.
Hey, who are you?
Isn't this Pink Panther?
It's Pink Storm, you idiot! You forgot your team name?
That was a year ago. Am I some kind of genius?
You talking slang to your seniors? Show some respect!
My bad.
- "My bad"? - Yeah.
- Are you out of your mind? - You bet!
You wanna die?
What's going on? Why are you always fighting?
So full of energy!
There she is. Yoo Ha-ni!
Coach, this is Yoo Ha-ni, last year's top drafted player.
You've got quite the glare.
You don't do drugs or anything, do you?
Coach, how could you?
Why's there no one normal on this team?
You all act snobby for a bunch of good-for-nothings.
The season starts in a week and what are you doing?
The gym is empty because none of you practice!
And then what, it's the world's fault you didn't succeed?
You're responsible for your own life, you good-for-nothings.
- Coach? - What is it?
You seemed really angry.
As their captain, I have something to say.
Your age is to coach, can't be easy for you.
That tone, right there!
These kids' self-esteem has been low for so long, they're sensitive.
That's the wrong attitude. Self-esteem?
It they had any self-esteem, they'd be training!
That kind of style is not for these kids.
Nonsense!
I don't care. You can shout at me.
Since I'm 20th century, too.
What a sad sight.
But kids these days are sensitive.
The owner already made his one-win pledge...
What? What did he do?
You didn't know?
Their pride is hurt, that's why they're acting up!
A one-win pledge? What kind of crap is that?
100 SEASON TICKET HOLDERS TO SHARE $2M AFTER ONE WIN
Is he insane?
Should we trade the owner?
Don't get traded yourself.
He's got some obsession about pledging!
He never even keeps them.
I don't think he's cared about volleyball from the start.
Let's make it clear today. It'll be over once we go to Deokjin.
There are some strange people in this world...
Carps love the taste of sweet and savory.
Mix some sugar in the potatoes, and they go crazy for it.
This must be Coach's secret recipe!
Of course!
- Can I take that for free? - It's my pleasure.
He doesn't tell this secret to just anyone.
- If I catch any, it's thanks to you. - Exactly.
Volleyball season is back! We welcome Kang Jung-won, owner of Pink Storm.
Hello, happy to be here.
Wearing a hat during a broadcast?
Pink Storm's one-win pledge is a hot topic these days.
- Did your season tickets sell out? - Yes.
- Did you expect this? - Yes.
What happens if you don't win one game?
It'll be awkward.
Any reason why you made such a unique pledge?
Simply winning is no fun.
Who, when, and how they win. That's what I wanted to show.
The public cares about the process as well as the result.
You know Rocky?
That's just great. Do what you want, punk.
I'm going to Deokjin next year!
- Hello? - It's me.
- Who? - You deleted my number?
- It's been a while. - It sure has.
I wonder how it got deleted. How's Jin-ah?
SPECIAL EVENT "VOTE FOR YOUR PINK STORM PLAYER" Are you ready for the season?
Is the foreign player really a libero?
Stop it, this is how we got divorced.
There are decent kids on Pink Storm.
Don't give up.
Who said I'm giving up? How could you say that?
Okay, let's stop. This'll get us divorced twice.
Call Jin-ah, will you?
Okay...
FIRST GAME
VS. SUPER GIRLS
This is Pink Storm's first game of the season.
They became the first team whose tickets sold out in five minutes.
People thought they'll win once even though they're weak.
But people, this team may truly never win.
Coach!
Hi, Coach Suk.
Good to see you here.
You're all pink.
Do I look okay? Even my face is turning pink, being here.
Why's the coach more nervous than the players?
We'll go easy on you today.
Go easy on us?
What have you got, anyway? Give us everything you've got.
The pro leagues are different. Come to me if you have any questions.
Look after yourself. Last year Super Girls placed last.
That's because we're rebuilding.
Rebuilding takes 10 years?
If I was coach, Super Girls would've won long ago.
What a beginner. Start bragging after you've won.
He used to be the worst player.
How'd he become a pro coach? Look at him turn back.
And why am I turning pink?
Hyo-in, that was yours!
- You should've gotten it. - That was yours!
B, B, B.
- \What's with me today? - I said B, didn't you hear?
I know, but my stomach is cramping.
Hey, Bang! Bang!
- C. - What?
Set to C!
- I can't see! - C!
What? C?
Coach, we can see your signs.
You, come out. Now.
Ah-chung!
Alright, I'm coming out.
Look how happy they are you're out. Now they'll play well. Go sit.
- Damn it... - Let's go!
Get it!
Hey! You laughing at me? Let go of me!
That was close. I thought there'd be a brawl.
They should call a timeout to cool things off.
Hey, call a timeout.
As you predicted, Coach Kim called a timeout.
Coach. If you called a timeout, you should say something.
Don't you have any plays?
I had something to say. Hold on, I forgot...
What kind of coach forgets the play?
Well, the camera came in suddenly...
- Should I block the camera? - Yeah. Can you stop shooting?
Coach. If you called us in, say something.
How's your stomach? Does it still hurt?
Don't worry about me, say something to them as the coach.
Let's do well!
- Play well, he says. - We have no play.
- Pink! - Storm!
DISASTROUS DEBUT BY COACH KIM
Yes, the team is still getting organized.
You're right. It should've been done before the season.
Min-hee!
Min-hee was open, why not give it to her?
I didn't see her.
Come out. Ah-chung!
Fine, replace me.
- You can't see? - I can't!
She tosses to Jung Da-eun!
Wait, she isn't giving it to Min-hee either?
Give it to me!
The left side is open, but they toss to the other side.
Coach. Let's just swap out Min-hee.
Why? Did something happen?
You suck at volleyball!
Coach Kim looks best in pink!
He wore pink again! Looking sharp!
Pink97, who can't forget the thrill of their last championship in '97,
is burning an effigy of Coach Kim in anger at their losing streak.
You have no respect or philosophy for volleyball!
You all try coaching. See if you can win with these kids.
WE STILL LOVE PINK STORM
Let's drink.
Eat this for your strength.
Thank you.
Did you go to the club tonight, baby?
- I didn't dance at all. - Right?
You did go.
I did go to a club, though.
Amazing!
Eat up.
Why is it so good?
My husband makes the best chicken, so eat up.
It's delicious.
- It's really good. - Yeah.
By the way...
About Min-hee...
That bitch!
She's why we're in this mess.
She helped Sung Yu-ra bully everyone.
I've been playing volleyball for 15 years, but I had to give it up.
Why would you mention her and ruin our appetite?
As the captain, I'm asking your opinion.
Oh, hey...
Why you left here alone, not going Black Queens with your sister?
You spiked a lot at Seonghwa High, right?
You were really good. Good steps and flexibility.
But you don't spike much as a pro. Why not? Because of Yu-ra?
Never mind. Finish running.
Sung Yu-ra! Sung Yu-ra!
Hi, Coach.
Why didn't you visit after becoming a coach?
Eh, visit... I've been a bit busy.
I know you lack players, but how can you play that way?
Well, who took all those players?
Now you want to be equals?
Well, aren't we both growing old?
Poke fun after you win.
The day of the showdown is here.
Today's most talked about match!
The unbeatable Black Queens against the no-win team, Pink Storm!
The key talking point will be to see how fast Pink Storm loses.
Are you using Bang Su-ji as the main setter?
I've got it under control.
Her setting fundamentals are all wrong.
Is your main setter Lee Jin-hee? Because of Yu-ra?
You've got good setters, yow should mix it up.
Listen when I give you advice.
No need, we're both coaches... Have a good game.
[SET 1] PINK STORM 0 - 0 BLACK QUEENS SET SCORE 0 - 0
Sung Yu-ra blasts it through the middle!
The two cannons, Sung Yu-ra and Elena shoot out fire from the start.
Yes, their power is amazing.
- What's going on with them today? - They want to finish fast.
Whoa, they're ruthless.
Spike through the middle! Sung Yu-ra scores again.
It's okay! It's okay!
Shit, she's strong.
You can receive it just fine! Don't be scared!
I've never seen power like that.
Just set it. We just need to set one up.
Let's play with confidence! We can do it!
- One, one, one. - One, one, one...
Jeez...
[SET 3] PINK STORM 9 - 17 BLACK QUEENS SET SCORE 0 - 2
Yoo-ahn, look before you hit. The cross court was open.
Why don't they go in?
- Bo-ra. - Yes?
- Are you on vacation? - No.
Should I go in?
Why did all of you go in this time?
You told us to go in.
Damn.
Pink Storm keeps repeating these mistakes.
The coach and players just aren't on the same page.
That's right.
[SET 3] PINK STORM 11 - 25 BLACK QUEENS SET SCORE 0 - 2
What on earth are you thinking out there?
What am I thinking? Of winning.
Good game.
Why weren't you in the game?
Ask the coach.
Your skills will get worse If you stay with them.
What's with you? You feel guilty?
Me? Why should I feel guilty? You're just not good enough.
Look. Is anyone on Pink Storm any good?
Listen when I talk to you!
Hey, what did you say?
It's between us, forget it.
Did you badmouth us?
No. We were just talking. I'm her sister.
All this bitch can see is Sung Yu-ra.
She's nothing without Sung Yu-ra...
Was that Chinese?
You heard her, right? Don't hold back!
Am I wrong? Is there any decent setter here?
You only set to Yu-ra, you stupid.
Why don't you just go practice?
- You wanna go at it? - Lee Jin-hee!
- Yes, Yu-ra! - Hey, you bitch!
Get over here!
COACH KIM'S PERFORMANCE STILL AWFUL
Must be awkward writing about your husband.
Ex-husband.
Be objective.
How can you play like this? Are you really volleyball players?
Bring back Sung Yu-ra! Take those weaklings out!
What? Weakling? You calling us names?
If you don't want to hear it, then play better!
What are you doing?
Don't underestimate us!
Why fight with the fans? Go on!
Coach, look at them!
Why don't you just go to Sung Yu-ra?
Stop! Don't get upset...
What's with them...
Bo-ra! Oh Bo-ra!
Hey, don't make things worse!
Hey, don't let her get off! Bo-ra, just stay on the bus!
Go, go.
- What the hell is going on? - Keep talking trash!
Hurry! Go!
Kim Woo-jin!
- Resign! - Kim Woo-jin, resign!
Why tell me to resign? It's only been a few days.
You don't even have a good spiker!
Fine. I'll take your questions.
Give me that... How do I use this?
Now, ask me one at a time.
Good. So what kind of a team will Pink Storm be?
I plan to build the team to overtake other teams with our solid defense.
What about Oh Bo-ra? She can't play defense!
Right, that's why I'll switch her to opposite hitter.
That's how the offense improves.
- Then you do have a plan? - So why don t you carry it out?
- They don't have the will! - Bang Su-ji does!
All she does in the dorm is stitch. And go clubbing on her day off.
Clubbing...
It's not that they can't win, they just don't have the will.
Because they lose every day and get cussed out by you.
You think they'll develop the will to win if you ridicule them?
I feel like supporting another team!
But you can't. Because you love Pink Storm.
Can't leave them, can't abandon them.
I know that feeling very well.
It's these kids' first time playing in Division 1.
No one's ever believed in them or cheered them on.
It you curse at them, how will they win?
You have to cheer them on.
Let's not yell at them until Round 5. Dismissed.
Jin-ah.
You should've called when you got here.
You're on the news a lot.
Don't read the news or things online.
Your dad's going to coach a college team next year.
Deokjin University, they're the best team.
Do the players know?
- What? - That you'll abandon them?
You I become just like Coach Moon Oh-sung.
Jin-ah...
Here.
Watching today's game, it'll be hard to beat Sung Yu-ra.
No team can beat Black Queens.
What a pity that a passionate coach like you met the wrong players.
Our kids still have their strengths.
- Wow, he still defends his team? - What a passion.
- I don't really know volleyball... - You're an expert.
- ...but some kids fail for a reason. - You're right.
They always blame others and the world.
- They just end up whining forever. - You're right.
Listen up!
From now on, I will trust Coach Kim with all my heart.
- Don't worry about that one win... - No.
- What? - We will win once.
Bang Su-ji, Oh Bo-ra, Yoo Ha-ni. I will get one win with those kids.
With peace in your heart. Exactly.
This is Director Ban.
Emergency night training has been scheduled.
All Pink Storm players should gather at the training ground.
What night training?
No-shows are off the team.
- Right now? - Training?
- Everyone out here now! - What kind of bullshit is this?
I will now...
teach you how to win.
Coach, if you're drunk, go home and sleep.
Listen carefully.
If you find out what kind of players you are,
you can win 100 games, not just one.
I think you have some misunderstanding about us...
Even you can win, you blockheads!
Coach, I think you're drunk.
Maybe not Black Queens, but you can beat Five Stars or Super Girls.
Gather 'round.
You don't know what kind of players you are, but once you know,
you can see your next move.
I see it. What kind of team Pink Storm is.
So, the main setter is Kang Ji-sook.
Me?
What about me? She hasn't played in six years!
We need Kang Ji-sook to win.
If you go to center now, you can play until you're 40.
Coach, I am 40.
You're 40? You're not even a starter, how did you...
I stuck around like a wet leaf.
You can play until you're 45.
Coach, I played as a setter for 30 years!
That's plenty enough.
How can I change positions right before retiring?
What are Bang Su-ji's strengths? Quick location selection!
Eyes that read the opponent's attack! Height! Determination! Side step!
Me?
Oh Bo-ra as opposite hitter.
Opposite?
Most teams have foreign players as spikers.
We don't need that. Why? Because we have Oh Bo-ra.
I've been outside hitter for 15 years!
Sure, an outside hitter with weak defense!
But you could be a strong, powerful opposite hitter.
Oh Bo-ra breaks through the blocking again!
Now, what's our strongest point? Defense.
As long as we can receive, we won't lose easily.
Mine!
Catch it!
Jump!
One win! One win!
Bang Su-ji blocked it! I can't believe it!
Bang Su-ji's strengths are shining through.
What do you think your weakness is?
I'm too timid and watchful?
Those are your strengths. The setter needs to be watchful.
Your strength and weakness are two sides of a coin.
When the weakness disappears, so does the strength.
I can't believe Kang Ji-sook is starting for the first time in six years!
- Why'd they let her go to waste? - I know, right?
Why set from the front? They'll be able to read you!
Set it from above.
I want them to see.
My back is flexible, so even from here,
I can set it behind.
Finally, Pink Storm won their first set in 12 games!
We got a win!
- That was just one set. - Whatever, it's the same!
- Hey, Jin-sik. - They've improved a lot.
We won a set somehow.
One set! One set!
Embrace the ball and then set it.
You have to catch it with your body.
Then our spikers can't get the timing right.
We have one spiker who can do it.
Try setting it to her.
If Yu-ra's got height and strength, Min-hee's got speed and flexibility.
When Yu-ra breaks through the blocking, Min-hee will dodge it.
Ji-sook supports Min-hee, Min-hee supports Ji-sook.
Got it?
Lee Min-hee as outside hitter?
Coach, what's the meaning of this?
It's going well right now. Why are you putting Min-hee in?
We need Min-hee to win.
- Lee Min-hee? - What? Min-hee?
Why is Min-hee playing?
Take her out! I don't like her.
What are you doing when it's going so well?
Put me in instead. I can play well.
It's not that.
Don't we need Min-hee?
I thought we need her.
Sis. I don't speak Japanese.
I've told you before. It's a very sensitive issue...
I thought you wanted to win? If you want to win, we need Min-hee!
You know why you haven't been part of the starting lineup?
Those who want to win will give up everything to win! What about you?
Go warm up.
For the first time in a while, Lee Min-hee is playing outside hitter.
- Yes, they've switched things up. - Yes.
Pink Storm has been playing well, but they don't look good today.
Hey, you're not going to receive?
That was yours. You should've got it.
You can block it from the front, why blame Min-hee?
How can we block every ball?
They had a fight. It's so obvious.
At least pretend to block instead of attacking Min-hee.
What are you all doing? During a game?
Everyone but Yuki and Min-hee come out.
Ah-chung, Hyo-in, Ji-hye, Sung-hee.
Get off now!
And the serve falls in. Point for Pink Storm.
Lee Min-hee scored the point, but she's left out of the high-five.
C! C!
Back C to an opposite spike!
I said Back C.
C, C.
You can't even spike that?
- They don't get along? - Yes, it's so easy to tell.
Who's too blame for Lee Min-hee's missed point?
The setter made no effort to match her step and timing.
Good game.
They were improving a lot, what happened?
Did they fight?
I don't know. Good work.
Hey, stop wearing elevator shoes.
You're already too damned tall.
Just focus on volleyball! You have to play as a team!
Everyone, gather around.
Right now.
You all shouldn't win.
You don't deserve to.
If you play like this, you'll resent it for the rest of your life.
You know that?
You think you'll get a chance to play on the court forever?
You think you have the right to cuss out Sung Yu-ra?
I'm sorry...
People will see, get up.
It's my fault.
I was just really scared...
I was scared of Yu-ra and Jin-hee...
I didn't let you play, talked behind your back,
stopped you from training...
I was an awful teammate.
I spike well! I can play well...
I want to do well... I really want to play!
I'm sorry...
SPIKE WINGS 0:3 LOSS
THE TOP 3 TEAMS THAT MADE THE PLAYOFFS
THE BOTTOM 3 TEAMS THAT DIDN'T MAKE THE PLAYOFFS
Black Queens, Spike Wings, Blue Dolphins.
The top three will take it easy in the season's second half, right?
Still... Who do you think we have a chance against?
- I think Blue Dolphins. - Spike Wings.
You know how to talk?
Make sure to schedule matches against Five Stars and Super Girls.
Coach Ha opens his mouth after years. Let's go after Spike Wings!
It we want to beat Spike Wings, we need a performance analysis team.
The club owner isn't spending any money.
We need it.
What?
It's absolutely necessary.
Two sentences in one day?
We've released more season tickets.
Manager Sung? Manager Sung?
Keep up the good work!
Everyone is working very hard.
The season ticket dance! Season tickets!
Season tickets!
Oh, the coach is here.
He's been working all day and night.
Do you want to say hi?
Yes, hello. Pink! Pink!
I need to talk to him about something important. Sorry.
What is it?
You said before to let you know if I need anything.
Yes, anything.
We picked a team to target for our one win, but we really have to fight.
You've finally realized that desperation for the one win?
Yes, thanks to you, I learned a lot. But we need performance analysts.
What is that?
They analyze the opponent's games, map out our tactics and overall...
You can watch the re-runs.
It's not just rewatching, but there's this analysis program.
- Like a PC game? - Exactly!
Then we can download the program!
Well, we need to collect data and run the program, it's complex.
I'll download it. I'm good at these things.
It the coach comes all the way here when he's busy,
why not consider... Never mind, I'll do it myself.
I'll learn it myself.
You're learning a lot thanks to me.
Honestly, it's a bit too much.
Did I do something wrong?
[SET 5] SUPER GIRLS 15 - 11 PINK STORM SET SCORE 3 - 2
Good job.
Stop making mistakes at important moments.
Coach...
Good game.
We went easy on you.
If you lose to Pink Storm, you'll get fired.
They're good, so don't scold them.
Our girls have improved, right?
You can worry about me, now?
Stop blathering on and teach me something.
What?
Comparative Performance Analysis of the 6 teams Who learns this from the opposing team's coach?
You son of a... So arrogant...
You can categorize the match footage this way,
seeing the attack routes and ball possession rate.
So I just have to do this... Isn't this too easy?
No, wait. Why put that in the trash?
That's what you just did.
I threw that away because it's my team's data.
How could you throw away your team's data?
We stand a chance against Five Stars and Super Girls.
Why throw that away?
You want to analyze us? To beat us?
Why else would I be learning this?
Then I'm not going to teach you! Take it out!
Fine. I'll go easy on your team.
Go easy on us?
You lost today too. Talk to me when you've won.
Punk, just take a look at Five Stars.
They've got to have attack routes and blocking timing. Show me.
- Anyway, don't do us. - Okay.
Match your blocking angle and timing to their outside hitter's left arm.
One, two, three.
Oh! Wow.
You don't have this system? That's why you always...
You have to study these things. You can't do it old school anymore.
Pink Storm is giving Spike Wings a run for their money.
To the opposite corner!
The libero dives...
and Lee Min-hee spikes from the center! Point!
- Aren't you looking? - I am!
They keep going B side!
- Sorry! - How many balls came through?
- 7 more points. We can do this! - One more set!
One set!
- Pink! - Storm!
Lee Min-hee hits one through the center.
Watch how Lee Min-hee fakes to the outside,
then takes one step inside. It's executed perfectly.
It's long, prepare yourself.
It's long.
Yoo Ha-ni gets crossed up and gives up a point.
I told you it was long.
Center back attack!
You're tiring because you're too riled up right now.
You can miss, just don't think too much.
It's not working because you keep overthinking!
Coach Kim is exceptionally talkative today.
Short... and a point by Bang Su-ji. What's happening here?
[SET 5] SPIKE WINGS 14 - 13 PINK STORM SET SCORE 2 - 2
Spike Wings is 2nd in the league!
But they may fall victim to an extraordinary upset.
I told you to fall back!
Hey, do the blocking right.
- Hey, is anyone listening? - We need to signal each other.
- Pink! - Storm!
Match point for Spike Wings. One point away from sealing their victory,
while one point can bring Pink Storm back to square one!
Yoo Ha-ni serves.
And Bang Su-ji blocks!
Pink Storm ties the score!
Wait! Net touch! She touched the net!
- I think a video review is coming. - She touched it!
- Play is stopped for a moment. - What net touch?
- The referee didn't call it. - Stay out of this, man.
- Why stay out? - Stay out of this!
- Hey, did you touch it? - No way!
What are you talking about? I didn't touch it!
- Please calm down. - She's really bad at lying.
Calm down.
- I request a video review. - Okay.
Coach Kim, since when have you...
Spike Wings has requested a video review of the net touch.
Pink Storm earned a critical point,
VIDEO REVIEW but Coach Kim Se-jin has requested a video review.
This video review can swing the outcome of today's game.
Oh, she touched it!
- She touched the net sleeve. - Coach Kim hangs his head.
Sometimes a player can't even feel it.
Good job.
VS SPIKE WINGS 2:3 LOSS
So, tell me about your revolutionary marketing plans.
We'll sell autographed uniforms and have special fan meetings...
That's boring.
Our players must all have stories. Any sensational melodrama in there?
Boss, we have plenty of that.
Since they won't win anyway, let's raise the prize money!
- Good idea! - A pledge for a no-win season?
That's no pledge! Doing nothing will fulfill it!
A no-win season?
Who? Us?
You've gone over the line. You think it's funny?
Do you? Who says we won't win?
Wow, with people like this working for me...
From the moment I arrived, you are saying we can't do it!
Keep complaining about not having players!
Before even trying, you say we can't do it!
- You said you like melodrama... - What?
Still, we should prepare in case we don't win.
The story has to end with one win.
Why prepare for anything else? You don't believe in our team?
Meeting's over!
Look carefully. This outside hitter, her mouth opens when she spikes.
Like this, she doesn't even know she's doing it.
This will always go middle.
I can't see it.
That's why you don't improve. Look closely.
She opens her mouth like this without noticing.
It comes out 78% of the time. When you jump, watch her mouth.
Then it'll always be down the middle. The data shows everything.
One, two!
What happens if you always serve to square 2?
It's hard for the center to attack in motion.
Exactly! Five Stars does a lot of those.
Put it in 2, then they can't get a quick spike in.
- Where will they throw it then? - C.
Nice!
Too long.
You can do it!
Playmaking by Five Stars... and the C-ball is blocked!
By serving to Square 2, they're shutting down Five Stars' offence.
Another serve drops in to the same location.
And again it's blocked!
Yes, they keep scoring points with the same method.
What an exhilarating match between the bottom teams!
- Yuki! - As usual, Five Stars keep
rotating in their liberos.
Our liberos are decent.
Choi Mi-yeon and Bok In-kyung will win once in a game of stamina.
Yes, rotating their liberos allows Five Stars to keep up their stamina.
On the other side, Yuki covers it all on her own.
More great defense from Yuki! Look at the shot she saved.
All four sets reach deuce! This is a fight to the death!
A team trying for one win. A team trying not to give up a win.
A thrilling game is taking place here today!
Great job!
This is our last set.
Think of this as the last set of your life, got it?
As soon as Yuki receives it, get out of the way.
- Pink! - Storm!
Let's go!
- Sit. - Deuce! C'mon let's go!
It Pink Storm gets one point, they'll reach a deuce.
But if Five Stars gets one point, it will all be over.
With Kang Ji-sook's serve, the rally begins.
- The outside attack is blocked. - Set, set.
Back C.
- Ha-ni Ha-ni! - Setting...
Ha-ni, go!
Pink Storm returns the B-ball.
Hit, hit!
That's a nice opposite block. Diagonal... spike!
Defense, defense!
Quick open to the outside...
And Yuki saves it. A 3-stage play.
They make use of the center... And another save by Yuki!
Poor positioning on the outside. A diving dig!
Yoo Ha-ni... Her tip attack fails to land.
Get it!
Yuki saves it from the corner...
Nice block of that quick spike.
A center back attack! Under heavy fire, play continues.
Opposite side spike!
This is a breathtaking rally!
Let it drop!
It's out! Let it drop!
Coach Kim's fatal miscalculation erases Pink Storm's hopes of victory.
Their last game is with the top team, Black Queens.
Volleyball cannot be played without the player's blood, sweat and tears.
One point, one set, one game. All with blood, sweat and tears.
But if you win...
the blood, sweat, and tears are sweet,
Some people criticize your obsession with winning.
What is sports if not winning?
Isn't that why you transferred from Shinyoung High to Cheil High School?
Kim Woo-jin was Shinyoung's setter? Did you give up on him?
- Hold it higher. - Hi, Coach.
A bit higher. High each time.
What do you think your strengths are?
Accuracy, flexibility, and stamina.
Yes, and your righteousness.
I'm really thankful.
You're the first person to tell me my strengths.
That's your strength.
Anyone can tell you your weaknesses.
That doesn't help anyone.
I agree...
That's why you're the best coach.
Where else can I go to coach?
I want to keep playing with you as my coach.
Go to a winning team.
No.
I want to beat Black Queens with you.
I said something similar when I was young too.
To a young, talented coach who told me my strengths and weaknesses.
But it didn't matter. He left as soon as he got a good offer.
I must've been too young, getting upset and hurt by that.
You want to beat Black Queens?
Yes.
You think we can win?
Yes.
Even against their best players?
Of course.
Okay. If we lose, it's your fault.
Got it.
Drinking by yourself?
I don't have any friends.
Did you see today's game?
Yes, it was so close!
It was clearly out...
The thing about volleyball is...
that it's played with the player's blood, sweat and tears.
People say that if you win, they taste sweet.
But unfortunately, I don't know that taste.
What?
I think I'll know when we go against the best players of Black Queens.
You think they'll use their best players though?
Let's make another pledge.
You think they'll use Sung Yu-ra just because we make a pledge?
Coach Moon has a huge ego, so it's possible.
Why, all of a sudden?
It's not that sudden. We have a history...
You want to be recognized by him, don't you?
It's not just winning a simple game.
You can play it off as a joke like it's a one-win pledge.
Sell whatever you'd like.
Sure, I may keep losing in life.
But I don't think this is just one win.
It's my life's one win.
I'm not playing around either.
I told you, I'm serious too.
Come in here!
I was just watching something funny.
How could I think that any team is easy?
The moment I underestimate them, I lose.
Do you plan to use subs for your last game with Pink Storm?
- I can't disclose our strategy. - Of course.
Should we make another pledge, Coach?
You said they'll ignore it.
You know, it depends on the when and the how.
Ta-da! Come closer.
- Hi, everyone! - Hello.
We are going live, to add in one last pledge.
Our last game against Black Queens is coming up.
- Right? - Yes, sure.
If Black Queens plays its starting lineup,
I'll double the prize money!
Wow!
- Look, our coach has gone crazy! - What is it?
Gather 'round!
- What is it this time? - Watch this!
You should bet something too.
I will retire.
I'll retire if we lose to their starting lineup.
Yes, no one is interested, but he's determined. How touching.
Now, here's the cherry on top, so listen carefully.
- We can't let them escape, can we? - Of course not.
If they win,
3 Black Queens season ticket holders will be chosen to win $20,000!
Wow!
Pink Storm made another pledge?
- What is Black Queens' owner doing? - What are you doing?
- We have to take care of them too. - We have to!
Despite all this, if Coach Moon doesn't use the starting lineup...
He surely will!
- Starting lineup! - Starting lineup!
Starting lineup! Starting lineup!
What'll you do?
What am I going to do?
Do you know what volleyball is?
Diameter, 20.5 cm...
Weight, 270 grams.
Max speed 120 km/hour. Avg. time to opposite court, 0.5 sec.
In that brief moment, that weight and speed feel like the universe.
You have to overcome that weight
and speed to scrape out one win.
What do you think Coach Moon will do?
Play against me once, Coach...
In this season's final game, we'll play all our starting lineup.
Do you get it now?
This is what I wanted to sell.
But if possible, I'll get you a win to sell.
6 ROUND
LAST GAME
29 WINS OUT OF 29 GAMES
29 WINS OUT OF 29 GAMES VS 29 LOSSES OUT OF 29 GAMES
2nd in serve ranking, Ahn So-yeon...
Ahn So-yeon? Are you done with rehab?
Is there a spot for me?
With each set, Sung Yu-ra's jumps drop by half a centimeter.
By comparison, our players' blocking reaction speed and height
average 1.3 seconds and 2.8 cm.
So we just need to reduce it by 0.3 seconds.
In volleyball, with 0.3 seconds, you can get 5 cm ahead.
0.3 seconds in volleyball is the same as the universe.
- Let's beat Sung Yu-ra once! - Let's do it!
- Let's chew her up! - Chew her up!
- Pink! - Storm!
One, two, three!
Pink! Storm!
Pink Storm!
Nice!
Pink! Storm! Pink Storm!
- Are you all ready? - Yes!
Thank you for coming this far.
Before, I called you all good-for-nothings,
yelled at you and said some harsh things...
But I'm really proud of you.
Thanks to you, I learned a lot about life,
and really want to win one.
Let's do our best. Pink!
- Pink! - Storm!
Hello, I'm the owner of the club!
Hello!
Pink Storm's last game of the season awaits.
Introducing the coach who will bring Pink Storm's first win!
Coach Kim! Woo! Jin!
Kim Woo-jin!
Kim Woo-jin! Kim Woo-jin!
Bang Su-ji! Lee Min-hee! Kang Ji-sook! Lee Hyo-in!
Jung Da-eun! Park Su-jin! Kim Sung-hee!
Let's start the game! Make some noise!
In the first set, they'll probably put Min-hee in position 4.
He'll think we're going to put Min-hee in position 4, right?
Let's do the first set as he predicts.
[SET 1] PINK STORM 3 - 0 BLACK QUEENS SET SCORE 0 - 0
If Sung Yu-ra goes to the rear, push to position 8.
If she comes forward, send it to 3B. Then they're bound to fail.
- They won't be able to hit 2nd ball. - Okay.
Pink Storm's serves are mostly targeting Sung Yu-ra today.
Are they trying to tire me out?
Will their plan to tire her out affect the outcome of the game?
It's a back row attack! Get ready!
Look at the accuracy of Sung Yu-ra's back row attack!
At this rate, she won't be tired at all by the end of the game.
The top team of the season has won the first set, as expected.
Wait, stop.
The second left step. Is that about 30cm from the sideline?
- Yes. - Then it'll be long.
It's short!
It's a short, diagonal spike!
But Pink Storm read the move and blocked it!
Their attacks look standard...
Wait. She's carefully timing her toss in the air!
I thought Min-hee jumps with her left foot,
but her right foot pushes off?
She takes position and leaps. In for a point!
Good job, everyone! Once we get Yu-ra, they'll collapse!
Yoo Ha-ni serves.
Good!
Floater serve!
It's a secret weapon she's been hiding all season.
Yoo Ha-ni's floater serve drops without rotating.
They knock it down! 24 to 17!
[SET 2] PINK STORM 23 - 17 BLACK QUEENS SET SCORE 0-1
- They can read all your sets. - Sorry?
They're keeping up because they can read you.
When Jin-hee looks at left blocker, just look at Yu-ra, okay?
Okay! Let's do this!
Yoo Ha-ni serves again.
A smooth float... Quick spike!
But it's not a quick spike. The ball went backwards.
Back attack for a point! Can you believe it?
Pink Storm actually made that play?
Black Queens just lost their first set of the season to Pink Storm!
Get back in! Stay calm! Hurry!
He'll panic when we read their attacks and break their defense.
Then what'll he do? Probably switch the setter.
Min-joo, Dal-saem, come here. Jin-hee, you're out.
- What? - Get out.
Min-joo, receive well. Dal-saem, set well.
Now, one more serve receive!
Don't forget about blocking. Okay.
Alright, let's do this!
- One, two, three, Black! - Queens!
Let's go!
Yu-ra, it's the last game, so try your best and don't get hurt.
Yes.
Let's go!
Set all of them to me.
Sung Yu-ra attacks from the left. Again Sung Yu-ra... a ruthless attack.
Yuki, you have to move. Move your feet.
It's all timing, can't you see? The new setter sets the ball higher.
So don't jump at three.
- Jump at four. - Okay.
Think about the timing.
The ball's so high, why jump with her?
Okay.
Why do you keep missing the block?
- Yuki, move your feet more. - Okay!
- Let's go! - Let's go!
- Pink! - Storm!
One...
Two.
Three, four.
They knock it down!
When Ji-sook opens up her shoulders, that's a back row attack.
Can you tell the difference?
Look, when you set it backwards, your body opens up more.
- Like this, you see? - Yes.
- Then what should we do? - Fix It.
I'm sure they studied it.
No need to fix it.
We'll use it to our advantage, like you said.
Oh Bo-ra!
Are we winning?
How many set assists does Kang Ji-sook have?
Aren't you focusing?
Listen to me.
From now on, don't look at Ji-sook. Ignore her.
Just watch the attackers.
- Watch them and play man-to-man. - Okay.
- Don't ever miss a block. - Yes.
There. Kang Ji-sook drops her head and looks at Oh Bo-ra.
That's always a quick attack.
Amazing!
Ji-sook executed a two-stage attack for the first time.
[SET 3] PINK STORM 23 - 16 BLACK QUEENS SET SCORE 1 - 1
It's like she's got eyes everywhere. She read their blocking completely.
Bae Ji-na. Get ready.
Hey, Bae Ji-na is warming up. Finish this set.
You can do it!
Here's Yoo Ha-ni, who wowed us with her first floater serve.
The moment of truth...
A spike serve! What's this? It strikes off the court!
Can you believe this?
The unbeaten goliath Black Queens lost two sets in a row!
She kept using the floater serve, until that last point.
They were caught by surprise, and so was I.
If Pink Storm wins this fourth set,
[SET 4] PINK STORM 0 - 0 BLACK QUEENS SET SCORE 2 - 1
they'll win their first game of the season.
Yuki!
Yuki! Are you okay?
I'm okay!
I believed in you!
Do your best, Yuki-sama!
I'm okay!
Yuki! Yuki!
Lower.
Focus.
Superstar server Bae Ji-na takes two consecutive points!
The Pink Storm players can't cope at all.
[SET 4] PINK STORM 9 - 9 BLACK QUEENS SET SCORE 2 - 1
It's Bae Ji-na's turn to serve again.
A powerful hit...
To the inside again...
Lee Min-hee hits it through! Another point!
They're going crazy!
When Bae Ji-na serves you need to return it quickly,
but they managed it well this time.
They're holding up well, and adding points.
Damn it, why are you so sloppy?
Sorry, sorry. My bad.
Move, move!
I said to move! Keep moving your legs.
Let's go!
Bae Ji-na's spike serve shoots to the corner!
Hit timeout.
In the end, Coach Kim calls a timeout.
Neutralize Bae Ji-na...
How will you do it?
Wait, what is this? Only two players, Yuki and Ha-ni, are in the rear.
- Is this a reverse play? - It's a gamble.
The opponent's server is Bae Ji-na, the number one ranked server.
Right.
Psst.
[SET 4] PINK STORM 17 - 19 BLACK QUEENS SET SCORE 2 - 1
One win! One win!
So-yeon!
Pink Storm's serving specialist Ahn So-yeon enters the game.
Let's go!
You keep rolling the ball. Don't do it.
Just toss it up like this. Change up your style.
You've got good wrist snap, so you can do it easily.
If you want to beat Bae Ji-na, you have to do the things she can't.
Ahn So-yeon's spike serve sails through, and falls in!
This serving battle is quite the thrill.
What a surprise!
Ahn So-yeon, thought to be in rehab, just tied the score on two serves.
Yes, her serving style has changed a bit.

[SET 4] PINK STORM 23 - 23 BLACK QUEENS SET SCORE 2-1
Pink Storm's attacks are obvious.
At critical moments, only Lee Min-hee attacks.
And she only targets back B or in-between B.
Be sure to block Lee Min-hee, and cover balls that fall through.
You're all moving well, it's going great.
Let's not make it complicated. Just play simply, okay?
Min-hee's playing great today. Always set it to Min-hee, okay?
- I'll set it to in-between B. - Let's go.
I don't know Min-hee's steps. We need to choose one,
It's back B. Block back B.
- Set it for back B. - Okay.
- Pink! - Let's go!
- Pink! - Storm!
It's 23-23 in the 4th set. Can you feel the tension?
Two points left for Pink Storm!
Will a miracle occur, letting them get their one win?
What a surprise attack!
One point left for Pink Storm!
They're so close to their one win!
[SET 4] PINK STORM 24 : 23 BLACK QUEENS SET SCORE 2 - 1
They collided!
She strikes!
Setting up a new attack...
Center back attract!
In-between B.
It falls in! In-between B... Lee Min-hee!
Can you believe it? This is incredible!
Black Queens has fallen before our eyes!
It's like they won the championship! I can't believe it!
Celebrate! Let's party!
Pink 97, go on down! Everyone, go on down!
Players, you did it!
You prepared a lot. Good job.
Congrats on the one win.
Thank you.
Now I can retire without any regrets!
You have to play until you're 50!
Keep playing until you're senile.
No, no.
It's okay!
- Who are we? - Pink Storm!
Yes, that's right.
As all of you know, I didn't have a great sports career.
I was always disappointed.
So it's a shame when talented players suddenly stop playing volleyball.
LAST YEAR'S WINNING TEAM PINK STORM COACH KIM WOO JIN
It hits close to home, too.
But this time I found a very talented player.
I'm confident she'll become the world's best player.

Black Queens and Pink Storm made headlines last season.
And this year, they face each other in the championship match!
In life, there are peaks and valleys.
But those at the peak don't know it.
They think there are only cliffs below the peak.
But once you come down, you see.
There are valleys and streams and trees and flowers.
So as you walk along this path,
you realize that one day, there will be another peak.
ONE
ONE WIN
