back when we were kids?

It was pouring down

like today.

Invite him to eat with us.

No!

The poor kid lost his parents

and is living with his grandma.

Boys, come and eat with us!

We're fine.

It's okay. Come on.

Grandma packed lunch

for us too.

What packed lunch?

I'm starving.

I'll get you

something yummy.

I promise.

What if you come in

first or third place?

You have to finish second.

We'll come up with a special sign.

If you furl your umbrella,

it means I have to go slower.

If you unfurl it, it means

I gotta run full blast. Got that?

Slow down.

Run, bro!

Faster! Come on.

Faster! Faster!

Yes! We won the noodles!

I might go back

to the training camp.

- As a coach?

- No... Like before.

Aren't you tired of running

for someone else's victory?

It's meaningful work.

How else will I be able

to run for Korea?

- It's thanks to that job that we got...

- Fine!

Just don't make me

worry about you.

Work is stressing me out enough.

It is, isn't it?

You're under a lot of pressure.

Hey, when are you going

to show me a nephew?

Can't wait to see a beautiful baby...

I'm stressing you out again.

Sorry!

You should get going.

What does Seong-ho say?

That he has faith in me.

It's not because he has faith.

Because he doesn't give a damn.

- That little son of a...

- Watch it!

You want to work for him again

after what he put you through?

It's obvious he needs you

to wipe someone's ass for him.

You'd rather that I stay here?

I'm more than happy to.

I stand by your decision.

I'm just worried about you.

I'm doing my bit

to serve the country.

- I'm going.

- Good luck.

- Will you welcome me back?

- Of course, silly!

I'll pray for you.

Thanks for everthing.

See you again.

Korea Athletics Federation

Training Center

Can I see your pass?

I'll be training here from today.

On the marathon team.

Didn't hear anything

about that.

No one's picking up

the marathon team.

I'm telling the truth.

- Have a good day, sir.

- Hold it!

Stop! I'm not gonna lose my job

for letting you through.

Don't you recognize me?

From all the races

that I ran.

Ever won any of them?

No.

How am I supposed

to recognize you?

But...

Unless the marathon team clears you,

I'm not letting you pass.

What the heck?

Psst!

Over here.

Are you trying to get in here?

Yeah.

Are you on staff?

Therapist or catering?

I'm an athlete.

No kidding! You look

old enough to be a coach.

Hey, you got smoke?

Excuse me?

What kind of athlete smokes?

I'm an athlete

and I smoke.

My event doesn't rely on

lung capacity.

What's your event?

Marathon.

That's all about lung capacity!

See that shop over there?

Can you get me
