Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-Joo (2016–2017): Season 1, Episode 16 - Spring, Youth, and Us Again - full transcript

[English subtitles are available]

[Weightlifting Fairy, Kim Bok-joo]

[Taereung National Training Center]

Yeah, it's past
curfew already.

I found myself a quiet
little spot to call you.

My roommate from Yeonnam City,
is a really light sleeper.

Did you train well today?

Yeah. I beat my record
by another 0.2 seconds.

At this rate, I might just skip
Taereung and challenge Phelps.

I really like that guy.

Did your training go well?
How's your back?



Well...

It's not going away,
because it's chronic pain.

But you've lost
more weight, haven't you?

I saw your picture, and your
small face looks even smaller now.

It's just lovesickness,
because I'm missing you.

Then why am I gaining weight?
I miss you too, you know.

I want to see you,
I miss Sun-ok and Nan-hee,

...and I crave my dad
and uncle's chicken.

And your dad?
Have you kept in touch?

Yeah, I talked to him earlier.

His voice seemed weak,
maybe because he misses me.

Okay. I'll visit Bok Chicken
and check up on him for you.

Okay, thanks.

Jun-hyung.



Now that I'm at Taereung, my memories
of school feel like a distant dream.

I was really happy there.

And I realize that I was
surrounded by great people.

Jun-hyung?

Are you sleeping?
Asleep?

I guess you're asleep.

I stayed up just to talk to you,
but you fall right to sleep.

I think I like you more than
you like me. It hurts my pride...

Hey, who's there!

I will follow the rules.

[Final Episode:
Spring again...Youth...and Us...]

Jun-hyung, Jun-hyung!

Hey, I thought we're gaming today?
My fingers are loose and ready.

I have somewhere to be.
See you later.

Hey, where?

Hey, hey!
Jung Jun-hyung!

Where's he off to in such a hurry...?
Is it something good?

Tae-kwon!

We're heading to the market,
want to go with us?

-Okay.
-Let's go.

The market!

Due to personal circumstances,
we're closed for the time being?

For emergencies...

Is something going on?

Yes, this is Kim Dae-ho.

Hello, Bok-joo's uncle.
This is Bok-joo's friend, Jung Jun-hyung.

Oh, my future nephew-in-law?

Yes, your future nephew-in-law.

Is something the matter?
I saw that Bok Chicken is closed...

What are you doing here?

I heard that you were in the hospital,
so I decided to visit you.

Are you feeling better, sir?

Yeah, he's fine. They're just treating
his ulcers before the actual surgery.

He's in the hospital
to rehabilitate his body.

I thought you and Bok-joo
are just friends.

Why are you
visiting her sick father?

You should appreciate
his sentiment.

You're so ill-natured...

What?

Is that how you speak
to your older brother?

I haven't beaten
you up in a while, have I?

-Why, you...!
-You didn't have to buy this...

Here...

When is the operation?

We've set a date, but it's on
the same day as Bok-joo's competition.

We're doing everything
we can to hide it from her.

Hey, punk.

I'm warning you, Bok-joo better not
find out about this. Got that?

She won't be able to focus on training
if she's worried about me, will she?

After all, she's finally
made it to nationals.

Yes, I hear you,
and my lips are sealed.

Yeah, Bok...

I'm training right now,
so I'll call you later. Okay?

What was that?
He fell asleep yesterday too...

I wanted to hear his voice.

Why? You can't get
a hold of your boyfriend?

He says that
he'll call me back.

Oh, you have a boyfriend?

Let me see his picture.
I want to see his face.

Here.

Hey, this is your boyfriend?

Stop lying! You got the picture
off of the internet, didn't you?

No, he's on my
school's swim team.

You must've saved the country
in a past life. This is no joke!

You've hit the lottery!

But she can't get a hold
of her handsome boyfriend.

I don't think this bodes well for you.
You're on the path to separating.

What?

90% of the athletes
who were in relationships,

...enter Taereung
and break up.

But there are stages to it.

First, it gets harder
and harder to stay in touch.

Either they don't pick up,
or offer to call again later.

After that, the calls get shorter,
and the conversations get shorter.

Then, BAM!
Comes the bomb.

I'm sorry.
Let's end our relationship.

I've found someone else.

No, he's training right now.

Why would you train
during lunchtime?

I went to
a sport university too.

With someone like your boyfriend,
it won't last for more than a month.

Do you think the other girls
will leave him alone?

Sun-ok, Tae-kwon.

-Corndogs...!
-Corndogs again?

The corndogs are here,
but there's no ketchup.

Where's the ketchup?
Are you kidding me?

They don't have any.

I'm used to things the way they were.
It's tastier eating with two other people.

Tae-kwon. I'll accept you
as our new member, okay?

It'd be an honor!
I call!

Okay. So we're the new
three musketeers!

It's the former member.

It's Bok-joo!

Bok-joo, why don't you call often?
Girl, I almost forgot your voice!

That's why I'm calling now.
How have you been, Nan-hee?

What about Sun-ok?

She's next to me.
We're having a snack right now.

Did you eat yet?
Did you call your hubbie too?

No, not yet.
He's training.

What?
Jung Jun-hyung is training?

So what happened?

Why did Jung Jun-hyung lie to
our friend, and where is he right now?

I really have no clue. He said that
he needed to be somewhere.

What's Jung Jun-hyung up to...?

Are you suspicious
of him too?

It has to be another girl.

I don't want to think of it that way,
but something smells fishy.

Other than a girl,
what else can it be...?

Sure, Jun-hyung is popular
with the ladies,

...but he'd never
go behind someone's back.

How do you know that?

As a guy myself,
I can't confirm it, but...

Forget it.

We need to find proof if we're going to
prove this one way or another.

Tae-kwon, I think
we'll need your cooperation.

Um, Future nephew-in-law.

I don't know if I should
ask you for this,

...but can you stop by
for about 2 hours tomorrow?

My girlfriend is really
mad at me right now.

Yes, I will.

I'll stop by
after training, Uncle...

Should we stop
holding hands now?

Yeah, Honey.

Hurry up!

Where are you, you son of a...!

There's no need for cursing...
I love it when you talk dirty...

-Girl-crusher.
-I'll show you what's nice, you #%&@.

Why aren't you answering me?
Who's next to you?

Who's the girl!

Hey, why aren't you answering!

She's not picking up.

Is she training right now?

Why did she have to call
at that moment?

I want to hear
your voice, Kim Bok-joo.

Jun-hyung.

Oh my, who is this?

Hi, Miss Song Shi-ho.

Have you been well?

No, not really.

What?

-Where are you going?
-The dorms. You?

I'm on my way there too.
Let's go together.

Go on.

Let's go.

No, you go on ahead.

Stop playing around.

-Let's go.
-Okay, let's go.

How are your therapy sessions?
The doctor is good, isn't he?

Yeah, he's great.

I feel at peace with myself
after seeing him.

I've been studying lately and
interviewing for assistant coach positions.

Oh, you're working hard.

You look better too.

Really?

Oh, are things
going well with Bok-joo?

The long-distance
relationship isn't easy.

Yeah, I'm starting
to blame our country.

What?

Okay, I'll meet you there.

Hey, Nan-hee.
I've received a tip.

Jung Jun-hyung is on
the move again. We need to go now.

Okay, Jung Jun-hyung
is dead meat.

Let's go.

He's moving so fast.
He's in a hurry, all right.

I really hope it isn't another girl.
In that case, I'm going to strangle him.

Hey, it has to be another girl.
There's less than 1% chance that it isn't.

I had no idea he was like that.
Without principles, you're an empty shell!

We need to catch him red-handed,
so let's not get caught.

Is he visiting someone
in the hospital?

Right?

Maybe the other girl
is in the hospital?

Or maybe, she's a nurse?

We can't just barge into
someone's hospital room either...

We need to catch
infidelity in the act!

Kim Chang-gul?

The name sounds really familiar.

Nan-hee, do you know
a Kim Chang-gul?

Kim Chang-gul.

Ah, that's the same name
as Bok-joo's father.

That's right.
Bok-joo's father's name is...

I doubt it...

Why, why? What is it?
Did you figure something out?

Tell me!

This is really good.

Right?

Nan-hee, Sun-ok!

How did you find out
about this place?

Father.

Father?

Hey!

I can't believe
that you did that!

Especially you, Cho Tae-kwon!

Huh?

Are you my friend or theirs?

How could you suspect me
and spy on me?

I had no other choice...

Tae-kwon didn't do
anything wrong. We went overboard.

Bok-joo had a hard time getting a hold
of you, so we got a little emotional...

I'm sorry. We care about Bok-joo
because she's our friend.

Yeah, I'm sorry. We were blinded
by friendship, and made a mistake.

I got it, so make sure that
you keep this from Bok-joo.

I don't know if this is
the right thing to do,

...but it's at Bok-joo's father's request,
so I'm going to follow through.

Okay.

Don't worry,
we won't mention anything.

And I never see
Bok-joo either...

After today, you're dead meat.

Jun-hyung, I love you.

What was that?
Why is it so hard to get a hold of you?

I'm sorry, I couldn't
find the right time.

Where are you?

At the weight room.

And what about you?
Are you at the dorm?

You must be training a lot.

Your schedule seems busier
than mine here at Taereung.

It's not only the training.
I have a lot of things going on.

What kinds of things?

Huh?

It's just a figure of speech.

I'm not really that busy.

Back and forth...

Maybe you don't want to
make time for me anymore?

Kim Bok-joo,
come here for a moment.

Yes, Senior.

Someone is calling me.
I'll talk to you later.

Hey. Hey...!

We only spoke for a minute.

After hearing your voice,
I miss you even more, Bok-joo.

I miss you Kim Bok-joo.

I miss you so much,
it's driving me up the wall.

Concentrate!

The competition is coming up soon.
Concentrate, Kim Bok-joo!

Kim Bok-joo, what's the matter?
Is something wrong with your back?

It's okay. I think
I twisted it a little bit.

Your back is a problem.
The competition is coming up too...

Let me see it.

Does it hurt here?

I can take it, it'll be fine.

No you're not.

This won't do.
I want you to go and get this treated.

You'll find Park Hospital
in Hwangeun-dong.

They specialize in this area,
so let them take care of you.

Go home, sleep there overnight,
and come back tomorrow.

It's my decision
to send you home.

Really?
Really, Coach?

Yeah. You need to
get better to compete.

What if it's like this
during the competition?

Thank you. I'll get it treated
right away, Coach.

Tae-kwon?

What's up, Tae-kwon?

What are you doing?

I'm watching weightlifting
videos in my room.

Why?

Well, I don't have
any work today...

Do you want to go
watch a movie with me?

Movie sounds great!

Wait a minute. Nan-hee left
for a minute, but I'll call her...

No, not with Nan-hee.

Just us two.

That's what I want.

Were you surprised?

Because I asked you
to go to a movie with me?

Not really. I'm more surprised by this
informal way you're talking to me now.

Then should I
go back to honorifics?

There's no need for that.
I'll probably get used to it.

Tae-kwon!

Hey, Nan-hee!
Where were you?

Hello, Nan-hee.

Thank you very much.

Wow, the pain is gone now.
I'm finally free!

Is Jun-hyung
done with training now?

I guess I should
call home first?

I'm calling my father.

Yeah, Bok-joo.

Uncle?
Where's Dad?

Oh, he's in the bathroom. He's been
in and out because of diarrhea.

Really?
Why, what did he eat?

Anyways, I got the day off
to take care of my back.

If I take a cab from here,
it'll take me about 20 minutes.

What did you say?
You're coming home now?

Yeah, okay. Bok-joo,
I left something on the stove.

Yeah, okay.

I'll let you go.
Okay!

What should we do?
Bok-joo is coming home right now.

It'll be all over if she sees the sign
in the front of the restaurant...

What else?
We have to go home now!

You'll get hurt.

It's all over.

Bok-joo will be there in 20 minutes
and we're over an hour away.

Then what should we do?
If Bok-joo finds, she'll cry her eyes out!

Wait, let's think about this.
Let's calm down and think...

We need to stop Bok-joo
from getting there, right?

Her friends!

Friends!

Should I ask them
to intercept Bok-joo?

Hurry up and call them!

Call with your phone.

Right, right...

This is so funny!

Too light.

Yes, Bok-joo's uncle.

I'm doing weights right now...

What?

Bok-joo is?

My home!

Bok Chicken!

Kim Bok-joo is back!
I have returned.

Bok-joo!

Jun-hyung!

Did you know I was
coming home? How?

No, I was coming to eat chicken,
but then I saw you from far away...!

This is what
they call telepathy!

We were meant
for each other!

You think?
I guess it's pretty amazing...

Then let's go inside together.

Hey, Bok-joo!
I've really, really missed you!

What's the matter with you?

Hey, did you do something wrong?
Why are you overreacting?

What are you talking about?
I said I've missed you!

Hey, let's go.

Why don't I treat you
out for lunch?

Let's get some of that
meat you like!

Okay. We'll go after
I say hello to my father.

You can say hello
a little later. I'm starving!

Let's go eat
some meat! I'll buy!

Turn around!

Go!

Hurry up!

I don't know why we left our house
for someone else's chicken,

...but I should get to know
my enemy, so I'll play along.

Yeah, yeah...
Dig in.

It looks like
you've lost weight.

I've gained weight.

Maybe it's because
I haven't seen you in a while.

So Chubs,
have you been well?

It took a long time
for you to ask me that.

Yeah, I've been good.
What's it to you?

Is that the sort of reaction
you should give to your husband?

Husband...?

Hey, be honest with me.
What have you been up to?

Are you having fun because I'm away?
Are you seeing other girls?

Do you think I'm crazy?
If you found out, I'd be dead.

So, you're not?

Of course not!

I need to use
the restroom really quick...

Yes, Bok-joo's uncle.
You can speak.

What happened with Bok-joo?

I have her in my clutches.
You don't have to worry.

Good work, nephew-in-law.

We'll arrive in about 20 minutes,
so stall her for another 30 minutes, okay?

Yes, I understand. I'll hold onto
Bok-joo so you don't have to worry.

Goodbye, sir.

Yes, I'll be
hanging up now.

I thought you were using the restroom?
Why are you taking calls here?

It felt stuffy, so I decided to
come out for some air...

Who's that on the phone?

Huh?

No one, really...

Hey, let's go back.
The chicken will get cold.

Let's go.

Who was it?
Why can't you tell me?

What do you mean?
It's someone you don't know.

So who is this person?
I'm sure there's a name! Tell me!

It's this guy named...

Seung-jin, and...
he's a high school friend.

A friend?

You use honorifics with your friend?
You must really respect this friend.

Hey!

I never said that!
You heard me wrong.

We haven't seen each other in so long,
so why do you picking fights with me?

It's not your friend, huh?

It's a girl!

It's not a girl!

Why are you so
suspicious of me?

It's because you're
acting suspicious!

Then let me see it.
I need to know the name.

Hey, what do you
think you're doing?

Look at you...!
Stop looking at me like that!

You're acting suspicious.

-Show me.
-No.

I thought you've got nothing to hide!
Let me see who it is!

What are you doing?
Don't you trust me?

Okay.
I went too far.

I've been training so hard,
I've been a little sensitive.

Let's not fight.

Yeah, I don't know why
you're suspecting me.

I've never even
looked at another girl.

You can trust me.

Hey, hey!

Give that back to me!
Hey, give it back!

Hey!

Even if we're seeing each other, we still
have to respect each others' privacy.

Inspecting phones
is not proper etiquette.

Privacy?
Etiquette?

Wow, you're so knowledgeable!

Yeah, I'm so dumb, I don't know about
privacy and etiquette, so I'll just leave!

Have fun talking to
your new girlfriend!

Hey...

Hey, Bok-joo!

Hey, what's the matter?
It's not something to get mad about.

Yeah, I'm just
overreacting again!

I'm overreacting and I'm
being jealous! We'll leave it at that!

Don't say those things.

We haven't seen each other
in a while, so don't leave like this.

I know. We haven't seen each other
in a while, so I don't want to act like this.

But this is how I am!

My back hurts
but I came anyways,

...and I feel so stupid for
wanting to see you and my father!

Jung Jun-hyung, I never thought
you'd do this to me!

Hey.

Hey, Kim Bok-joo!

I can't tell her
the truth, either...

Has it been 30 minutes yet?

The passion is gone, that jerk!

His eyes used to drip honey
whenever he looked at me!

It hasn't even been that long!

Yeah, the world is big
and there are plenty of pretty girls!

That jerk!

Father, Uncle!

What are you doing, Uncle?

Daughter!
You're home!

Is your back feeling better?
Did you get it treated?

I went to the hospital that the coach
recommended, and I feel much better.

But why are you wearing a mask?
Do you have a cold?

I didn't want any of
my customers to catch my cold.

Be careful, Father.
There's a bad flu going around.

Uncle why are you sweating like that?
Did you come back from somewhere?

I do feel weak lately.
I've been breaking out in cold sweats.

Maybe I'm getting
menopause early.

Uncle, you really
need to get married.

But Uncle,
what are you doing?

Maintenance.

Why are you cleaning
the fire extinguisher?

Fire prevention.

-Bok-joo!
-Kim Bok-joo!

What's this? Sun-ok, Nan-hee?
Did you know I was here?

No, we were going to stop by for some
chicken when we heard your voice.

The three musketeers
communicate by telepathy!

Three musketeers, swag~

Why is everyone talking
about telepathy today...?

Bok-joo,
I've missed you so much!

We made it...

You guys are eating chicken
just fine without me.

Doctor, he seems to be
running late today.

He must be busy.

I'm not waiting for him.

I never said that
you were waiting.

May we leave
for the day?

Of course, I'll be leaving right after you.
I need to look over some papers.

Yes.

Ah-young.

I'm sorry.

I had to be at this seminar...

I headed here as soon as it was over,
but I got caught in traffic.

I came here as fast as I could.
I didn't want you to wait.

But I wasn't waiting for you.

I had a lot of patients today.

Really?

I guess I was the only one
who was happy...

Did you eat?

Of course, with the nurses.
Don't you see what time it is?

But you're going to
join me, right?

I've come all the way
here for you.

Yeah, well...

Since you wasted gas to get here,
I can't simply turn you away.

Let's go.

Here.
Eat a lot.

This place is great.

I wasn't able to finish dinner earlier
because a patient came in...

Yeah, so eat a lot.
I didn't mean anything by it.

I think we've been to almost
every restaurant in the area. Right?

Yeah, I think you're right.

I want to buy something good for you,
but I don't really know the area.

So I've searched for
some places on the internet.

There's a famous squid
and pork BBQ place around here.

And past the church, there's a place
that does ginseng chicken stew.

Drumsticks...

And wraps too.
You love wraps.

Wraps...
Take a look.

What do you think?

Do you want to get
some wraps next time?

I'm leaving.

I've got a lot to do.
Finish your meal and leave.

Ah-young.

-You can keep the change.
-Goodbye!

Ah-young!

What's the matter?

Did I do something
wrong again?

Yeah, you did.

I came all the way out here to
get away from you. To forget you.

I'm starting to wait for you
in the evenings again.

I feel like I'm starting the cycle
all over again, and I'm scared.

So don't come here anymore.
I don't want to be your meal friend either.

Seoul is lonely without you.

So don't tell me
not to come.

What do you mean by that?

By any chance,
do you like Messi?

Do you call that
a proposal?

I know, right?

No, no.
That one.

Get it yourself!
You're so lazy.

Here, stuff this in your face.

[Jun-hyung]

-Who is it?
-Why aren't you picking up?

Who is it? Isn't it Jun-hyung?
Why don't you get it?

I don't know.
I don't even want to see him.

What?

I thought you couldn't live without him?
You're tired of him already?

I don't know!

All guys are the same!

If you're not there to watch
over them they get other ideas!

She must be mad at me.

We don't have much time left,
so please get your phone!

The person you have dialed
is not available...

What are you doing here?

How are you, Father?

Why were you standing
out there in the cold?

If she doesn't pick up,
you should leave.

Thank you for the tea.

Father, are you feeling better?

Of course. I'm fine.
I'm used to it already.

Why is Bok-joo mad at you?
What did you do wrong?

I don't do anything wrong.
It's just a misunderstanding.

It's nothing important.

Really?

Anyways, thank you
for your help today.

So you're a swimmer?

Yes.

What do you place?

I placed second
in my last competition.

You should
shoot for first place...

And your parents?
Are they still around?

Yes.

They run a pharmacy, but...

They're actually
my aunt and uncle.

My father died when I was young,
and when my mother remarried...

...they raised me.

But they gave me plenty of love,
so they raised me well.

How do you know
if you were raised well...?

And why do you
like Bok-joo anyways?

She's just warm.

When Bok-joo is with her friends,
and when she's with you and her uncle...

And when she's lifting weights,

...she has this odd way
of warming everyone's hearts.

Ever since she was young.

I guess.

Bok-joo does have a great personality,
because she takes after me.

That's right!
Bok-joo is just like you, Father...!

Stop laughing,
I can see right through you.

You impudent little brat...

Hey, Bok-joo! You get going.
You're on the national team now.

I'm going.

Get going!
And train hard.

Watch out for your back!

Father, get well soon.

Uncle, do more
of the work! Got it?

Okay!
Don't worry and get going.

Are you really
on the national team?

Okay, I'm leaving.
Why are you in a hurry to get rid of me?

I'll call you.
I love you!

Go, get going!

-We need to leave now.
-Okay.

I always
forget my extra battery.

What's this?
Closed for the time being?

But they were here
just moments ago!

Oh my, Bok-joo!
It's been a while!

Have you been well?

Yeah, I heard that
you went to Taereung.

You're visiting?

Oh, did your father set a date
for the operation? When is it?

What?
Date for the operation?

My lifespan will be cut short
because of Bok-joo.

Why is she calling again?

How's my niece?

Uncle, where are you
right now?

Where else?
I'm at the restaurant.

The place seems
empty without you...

Really?

You're at the restaurant, are you?

Yeah.
I'm at the restaurant.

This is the restaurant?

Yes, it sure is.

But I can hear you so clearly.
Like you're here...

No, really. We were going to
tell you after the competition.

I told him not to tell you.

I wanted you to concentrate.

This will be your first world competition
as part of the national team,

...so I didn't want you
to ruin it because of me.

So don't be mad, okay?

I'm not mad.

I should've known when I heard your
voice and when I saw you wear the mask.

You know what's wrong with me
just by listening to my voice.

I've got a lot
to learn, Father.

That's because I'm your parent.

Father.

I'll do well.

I'll win the gold medal
and hang it on your neck,

...so stay strong and go through
the operation, okay?

I trust you, Father.

Yeah, trust me.

Just trust me.

When you win that gold medal, you'll
have to thank my future nephew-in-law.

He helped look after your father,
and he stalled you yesterday.

He went through
a lot of trouble.

Hey, Kim Bok-joo.

What are you doing here?
Didn't you go back?

I'm the epitome of thoughtlessness.
I'm selfish, and I only care about myself!

I'm a selfish brat!

I don't have the right to be
Jung Jun-hyung's girlfriend!

Hey, what are you doing?
Are you insane?

I think I'm crazy.

I believed my colleagues
for no reason...

...when you were taking care of
my father all along...

Jun-hyung, hit me!
Jun-hyung, I deserve it!

Hey, don't do it.
It hurts.

So you've managed to find out?

I'm really sorry.

You're too good-looking,
and it makes me nervous!

And that's not all!

You're tall, you've got
a great personality...

And?

Your hands are warm, you swim well,
and you're a good kisser.

And?

What else?
That's all.

How did you find out?
Did you talk to your father?

Then let's go.
You're going to be late.

I'll drop you off at Taereung.

We're here already.

Taereung is pretty close.

I know. It seemed far away
when I came alone.

Bok-joo, look at me.

Look into my eyes.

Do you see that
I'm really into you?

I don't know after a million years,
but I'll never leave you now.

So relax
and train hard, okay?

Don't worry about your father's surgery.
I'll be there for him like no one else.

Like a Kim Bok-joo avatar.

Do you trust me?

Yeah, I trust you.

Good.
Go on inside.

Don't think about anything else, and just
focus on weightlifting. Got that?

If you don't win
that gold medal, I'll...!

You'll what?

Hug you or something.

So don't feel any kind of burden.
You'll have plenty of chances.

Okay, you go on ahead.

Forget it, you go first.

You should go first.

No, you go first.

Go on.

Hurry up.

Why aren't you leaving?

I'm leaving.

Hurry up and go.

I'm going.

Bye.

Take a deep breath.

Ready.

Looks great.

Watch your form.

That's right!
Hold it.

Bok-joo, I went to the market
and the sausages reminded me of you.

I beat my unofficial record today.
I'm right behind you.

Train hard!
You don't have to text me back.

Remedy for sore backs.

Wrap roasted salt in a towel.

Apply it to your back
for 30 minutes, twice a day.

Much more effective
than a hot pack.

Bok-joo.

Your father's condition is good.
He's having the operation as planned.

It's only a day away.

I've invested a coin for you.

[Qingdao, China]

[World Weightlifting Championships]

If you're ready,
let's get going.

Yes.

Kim Bok-joo, you can do it.

You're not alone.

The people who love you
are cheering for you.

Don't be nervous
and make this happen.

You'll become
the best in the world.

You can do it,
Kim Bok-joo.

Just do it!

Let's do it.

The operation was a success.

His vitals are normal,
so we'll monitor his recovery now.

Thank you very much.

Thank you, Doctor.

What time is the competition?

It's starting soon.

-Bok-joo, Bok-joo!
-Bok-joo, fighting!

Please, please...

It's a gold medal.

Great work, Bok-joo.

Thanks.

[2017 World Weightlifting
Championship Gold Medalists]

[Weightlifting Fairy,
Gold Bok-joo]

You were amazing.

Thank you.

Thank you very much!

[Two years later]

My shoulders...

I'm sick of rehabilitation.

Pain is the path to glory.
You're on your way to a gold medal.

You're still a back-up,
so worry about yourself.

But don't you have a graduation today?
Don't you have to get going?

What time is it at?

That's right! Kim Bok-joo
is going to give me another earful...

Senior, I'll be back.

Salute!

Hurry.

-Watch out for cars!
-Okay!

All of your seniors are here
to congratulate the graduating class.

This is the beginning
of your new lives.

Dew can gather to form an ocean.
You've heard that before, right?

So, what I'm saying is...

Small gains
achieve greatness, Head Coach.

That's right!

Hi-five.

Oh, couple rings!

I'm getting goose bumps!
You look great together!

Thanks.

Anyways, we have
a national team member among us.

Someone going into
sports management.

Yeah.

And others have found
their calling elsewhere.

Let's not forget the times
we've spent together.

If you ever need help,
give me a call.

Coach Choi and I
will always be here.

Thank you, Head Coach.

Congratulations on your graduation.

Senior.

Yeah, Ye-bin.

The seniors put you through
a lot, haven't we?

Are you trying to
leave it at that?

You're not leaving until
you do what you have to do.

Now, for the graduation highlight!

The Weightlifter's Runway!

And our weightlifting fairy,
Kim Bok-joo!

Bok-joo!

Hey!
Take it all off!

Don't touch the pink!

Shoes, shoes...!

No.
Who took my socks?

Senior!
Congratulations!

Undress him!

Aren't you going to
the afterparty?

I'll give you money!

This is a tradition,
so let's just get it over with.

Salute!

Private Cho Tae-kwon,
reporting for graduation!

You're right on time!

Tae-kwon, save me!

I'm not saving you!
Here I come!

No, no...!

Bok-joo.

How are you?

Bok-joo's father and uncle.

Jun-hyung's parents.
His brother, and his soon-to-be wife.

Nice to meet you,
I'm Kim Chang-gul.

Thank you for the vitamins
you've sent my way.

It's nothing compared to
the chicken we've received from you.

It was so delicious.

You're a chicken master.

Not at all.
I fry 70% of the chicken.

Visit us at the store,
I'll give you marinated and fried...

I'll shut our doors
for you, in-laws.

Then we'll bring
the ginseng drinks!

Please stop by the pharmacy.

It feels like an engagement.

Congratulations.

Do I get a present too?

Bok-joo, congratulations to you too.

Congratulations
on your wedding date.

Doctor, congrats.

Thanks.

I look forward to being
your sister-in-law.

I'm a bit clumsy,
so take good care of me.

Of course!

Bok-joo!

Jun-hyung!

-Bok-joo!
-Bok-joo, let's take some pictures!

Hello, everyone!
I'll be taking pictures for everyone!

Hello, hello.

Shall we begin with
Jun-hyung's family?

This way.
Pictures...

One, two, three!

It's the last time
we'll come here.

I could've bought a hundred chickens
with the money I've thrown into there.

But all of your
wishes came true.

You made nationals,
and you found a boyfriend.

A handsome one.

What?

Am I wrong?

Fine. It's my graduation gift.
I'll play along.

A lot has happened
on this campus over 4 years.

We trained hard, and I ate
a lot with Sun-ok and Nan-hee.

And we dated passionately too.

I think I'm going to
miss this place.

We used to run laps,
and drag tires around...

What time do you leave
for Taereung tomorrow?

Can you compete in
the next competition?

I think so.

A senior of mine is out
with a shoulder injury...

Nationals, swag~

Let's bet on who wins
more medals at the Tokyo Olympics.

A hundred bucks, call?

Hey, $100 isn't nearly enough.

At least $1,000.

And after the Olympics,
I'll probably be more famous than you.

Would you like
an autograph now?

I hope you make it
to Tokyo in two years.

Bok-joo.

If I win a gold medal this time,
should we get married?

I'll have the pension.
So I'll take care of you.

I'll think about it.

But if you're to win the gold,
shouldn't you train harder?

Do you want to
run with me?

I'm not running
on my graduation day. Forget it.

You need discipline.
You don't want to take a single day off!

Let's run!

No.

Let's go.

I said no.

I'm not marrying you.

Why won't you get married to me?
Then I'll have no choice but to run...

I'm not marrying you.

So, hurry.

Everyone has their youth.

It's an awkward but beautiful time
that remains in our memories.

You don't care about
the things you don't have.

And it feels like
you can do anything.

Youth at age 24.

I'm still anxious,
but everything is perfect.
