CHAPTER # 1 – SUMMARY
Kim Dan, an indebted young man with his ailing grandmother has been struggling to find a job for
him. He has been hired by a top mix martial art light heavyweight champion “Joo-Jaekyung”. As
he reached the ring, Joo was busy in his heavy fight which surprised Dan very much. Upon asking
about Dan, Joo’s manager “Park Namwook” confirmed that he is your new physical therapist.
Dan’s initial session with Joo was impressive which tend him to accept Dan as his therapist.
Upon reaching home, Dan observed that loan sharks are yelling at his door as well as his
grandmother’s medical bill is crossing the limits. He is thinking how much do I have to live like
this. Meanwhile, Dan received a call from Joo for a special treatment before the next day’s match
against an attractive offer of five thousand dollars. Dan, who is struggling hard, has to accept this
offer…

Dan reaches Joo’s residence and is thinking that he must be the highest paid athlete in the
country. Upon reaching the doorstep, he observed that something unusual was happening inside.
Dan was amazed to see Joo’s relationship with another guy which he was ending up with. Finally,
Joo kicked out the other guy with a bash.
Dan is thinking what is going on around here? He is trying to focus on his job and is predicting
that this session would be the same like the previous one but Joo’s plan is something different.
He clarified his addiction of always having a relationship with a man on the night before a match
and it's compulsory for his win in the ring. He called it his “Jinx”.
Dan is thinking about Joo's addiction, meanwhile he revealed his plan of hiring him in place of his
previous partner to fulfill his utmost desire. He asked him “I’m just here to treat you as your
physical therapist, I am not supposed to do that kind of thing” but the offer of five thousand dollars
made Dan accept it at once as his necessities are ahead of him...

Dan reminded Joo to keep the promise of giving him five thousand dollars in return for this
treatment. Joo asked him if he had experienced this earlier? Dan asked him to let him wash up,
meanwhile he was getting himself prepared and thinking how should he respond to this situation?
Joo asked him and confirmed Dan to cooperate without wasting his time. Dan is thinking that he
needs to accept this for the offer of five grands. Joo again asked him to be ready as he can't wait
anymore. We are just getting started…

Joo started his ride while laying Dan onto the bed. It was an entirely different experience; Dan
had ever faced. He was trying to push the top athlete to get some relief.
Throughout the whole night, Dan was striving hard with Joo. The next day, Joo woke up in the
bed and went straight away to the wash up and to eat breakfast. When he returned to the bed,
he saw, Dan had already gone. He thought, that’s good, that’s interesting…

In the next day's match, Joo knocked out his opponent with his front kick. He is looking up at his
peak condition. His manager is amazed as there is not much difference with his training so what’s
got him in such peak condition? He replied, he got what he was actually looking for. Joo asked
his manager if he wants to hire Dan as his private physio. He asked him to contact Dan but Dan
was out of reach for some days. Joo got hyper.
Dan went into Hospital to check his grandmother’s health. On meeting with her medical
consultant, Dan realized the current physical condition of his grandmother. Consultant told him
that a new medicine can cure her grandmother’s disease but it’s quite expensive. At one stage,
he thought he needs to leave all this but on the other hand his utmost love with his grandmother
and money lenders demands tends him to continue with the current situation.
Joo is calling Dan and suddenly the doorbell rings. Dan is there…

Dan reaches at Joo’s doorstep. Joo was surprised to see Dan and asked him “What could possibly
be going on in that pretty little head of yours that would bring you to my door?” Dan replied, he
was making sure if you are hiring him just as your physical therapist or even for something else.
Joo confirmed to him that he is the ideal choice of getting satisfaction.
Dan clearly told Joo that his grandmother's monthly hospital bill is approaching ten thousand
dollars or even more so he asked for fourteen thousand dollars and asked if he is ready to sign
the deal for this. Joo agreed at the given terms but also let him know that whenever he wants the
treatment, Dan should be ready for this.
Joo started his ride and Dan needs to accept it..

Dan visited her grandma in the hospital and made her sure that she will be getting better with the
new treatment. She asked him: “Where are you getting the money to pay for all this?” In response,
Dan replied he has got a good job as a private physio of the country's top athlete for a handsome
pay scale. He left the hospital for his duty.
On his first day at Jae Kyung’s gym, Dan is thinking if he is about to embrace this every day. Joo’s
manager introduced him to all the gym members and asked them to show some respect to Dan
as he is older. Dan helped one of the gym members who is suffering from shoulder pain.
Meanwhile, joo asked him to follow towards the showers area.
He overheated during his training session earlier. He needed satisfaction and some relief so he
started his ride over there. Dan needs to accept this as he has signed the contract.

Joo continues his ride with Dan in the gym. Upon Dan resistance, Joo said: “Man, unbelievable I
just took this response from an actual featherweight”. Dan immediately said sorry to him but he
must be ready for Joo's response as he has signed the deal with Joo to be ready anywhere,
anytime he wants.
The ride begins once again, meanwhile gym members enter the showers area to wash out. Joo
asked Dan to be quiet and continue the process and nobody will notice them. Finally, Joo finished
his task and asked him to wash out before leaving.

Joo’s manager offered a formal blue uniform to Dan and said “Thank You” to become a part of
the team. Joo’s coach “Jeong Yosep” reminded there is a welcome party for Dan at six o’clock
in the restaurant. Everyone in the restaurant warmly welcomes Dan on coming and joining them
and offers him grilled meat. There is a youngest member in the team called “Hwang Yoon-gu”
and all others call him “Potato”.
Upon asking about Joo, Manager told Dan, he usually doesn’t become part of celebrations. Coach
came up and said: “Aren’t you forgetting something? We haven’t done the welcome ritual!” They
present to Dan, “Team Black’s Welcome Elixir”.
Joo enters the restaurant and all warmly welcome him and offer to become a part of the welcome
ritual. Joo added his contribution and Dan drank the entire booze. On manager’s request, Joo lifts
Dan and drops him to his residence as he is unable to walk…

Upon reaching Dan's residence, Joo observed the situation of this place where Dan lives. Joo
asks Dan: “You wanted 14K a month for this?” Dan is calling his grandma.
When Dan comes into his state of consciousness, he finds himself in the Joo’s house. He is asking
himself how did he come here? Joo came and confirmed that he brought him to his place and
made him realize the appropriateness of his residence. Dan is trying to leave.
In fact, Joo brought Dan to his place upon his request about which Dan had no idea as he was in
a state of unconsciousness and was calling his grandma repeatedly…

On his way back home, Dan is thinking again that $14000 salary would be enough for him to pay
his interests and grandma’s hospital bills but asking to himself “How many years will I need to
stay with him?”. Meanwhile, he receives a call from the Redevelopment Association informing him
about his house next week.
Suddenly money lenders come and asked Dan: “From where did you get the money to pay back
that much all at once?” he replied, he is doing job and made sure that he will pay next month's
installment on time as well.
Dan reaches the gym and has been informed that there is another match ahead. During his physio
session with Joo, he requests an advance salary for moving towards another residence due to
demolishing his current place. Joo is amazed and asks him: “Am I your own personal ATM?” Dan
bowed to him and requested again. Joo said: “Great, there’s something I’ve been wanting to try”.

Dan is thinking what else something Joo wants to try? He is confirmed whatever he will face, he
will brace it as there is no other choice available. Joo comes and offers him a strong drink as he
saw him drinking in the welcome party.
Joo wants to try his ride with the new toy which seems entirely a different experience for Dan
during the whole process. Joo said: “It’s your lucky day, Doc, you are about to experience a whole
new world, thanks to me”. Dan is trying to move but willing to accept everything for his advance
salary.
The next morning, Joo asked Dan to wake up as the sun was already up. He is asking Dan “You
are losing stamina so how can i give you an advance?”

Joo calls the doctor for Dan’s medical checkup. Doctor examines Dan’s physical condition and
asks Joo that he needs to attend hospital for some medical tests. He also made Joo realize and
held him responsible for Dan’s current condition. He advised Joo to take good care of him, eat
him properly and show some affection towards him.
Dan woke up later and was surprised to see that Joo is cooking some food for him. At the dinner
table, Joo revealed to Dan that he has a match this week and he needs his service before the
match too. “I’ll get you that advance on your pay within the week”, Joo said. Dan is thinking “I
can’t remember the last time I had a home-cooked meal like this…”
On the match day, Dan reaches at the gym and found so empty in there. Members are talking
about the new opponent “Randy Booker” who seems to be a man from a different planet. The
match is scheduled at 4 in Busan. Suddenly Dan receives a call from Joo’s manager who said:
“We need you to be here to check Jaekyung's condition”.

Upon reaching, Dan examined Joo’s shoulder thoroughly in order to confirm if it was working fine.
Joo takes Dan inside and lets all others out and asks him to make it quick as time is very short
for the match.
There is MFC 272’s main match now. The opponent also called “The Butcher” is pinching Joo
“So hit me! The emperor? Ha!” It’s looking like Booker really managed to get under Joo’s skin.
Joo is striving to regain his momentum. Meanwhile, Dan called up and Joo asked him to do
whatever he wanted as the deal was “Wherever, whenever”. Joo started his ride with Dan. In spite
of Dan’s request, Joo continues as per his routine.

Joo’s ride continues. He really wants to go deep down in Dan’s mouth and ask to open it. Just 3
minutes before the fight, Joo completed his ride and entered into the ring where “The Butcher”
was waiting for. Match starts and Randy Booker looks pleased with himself, even taunting his
opponent.
Now it’s Jaekyung’s turn who is coming in with his elbows while knocking out his opponent but
that’s not enough for Joo. Those elbows are not showing any signs of stopping. Finally, the
champion keeps his belt another day. Joo Jaekyung, the emperor's man.
Dan is thinking it’s a weighty responsibility to take care of Joo as he has accepted this for the
sake of money. Dan requested Joo to tell in advance if he needs this kind of treatment urgently
so that he can prepare himself in a better way. Also, he praised him for today’s fight. He also
asked him about his shoulder’s condition. Joo confirmed that the shoulder is working fine. Dan:
“What….?”

Dan is thinking of using the ointment for his face which Mr. Joo gave it to him. Also, he is planning
to find a moderate place to live and reach the real estate office. As he needs to spare some money
for his grandma’s medical bill, he wants a place for rent without any deposits which seems
expensive, the agent confirmed.
Dan is thinking how 14000 dollars will cover all his expenses including hospital bills, interest and
rent as well or should he ask for more from the beginning? “And Mr.Joo has been incredibly
generous. Even this is way more than I deserve”.
Joo is asking his manager why Dan is absent from the gym? He is committed to come with him
through the hospital for medical checkup. Coach is calling Dan who is busy dealing with money
lenders. When they saw his bank deposits, they asked him to transfer this whole amount to them.
They are trying to play with his body, but suddenly, Joo comes…

Earlier, Joo was asking his manager about Dan's absence at the gym. The manager made him
realize how serious Dan is about Joo’s medical checkup. Upon reaching Dan's residence, Joo
ignored the loan sharks and asked Dan “Come on, we’re supposed to go to my medical checkup”.
They realized that Joo is a mixed martial art champion. One of them came to him and said: “Guys
like us, we’re for real”. Fight starts and the result is obvious. All members of loan sharks threw
here and there as a result of Joo’s punch. One of them came, Joo asked him “Hey you! How much
does that kid owe you?”,he replied: “N-No, no, I got it”.
Joo asked Dan, “let’s go, it's time for my medical checkup” …

On the way back, Dan asked Joo: “Sir, are you alright? You didn’t get hurt, did you?”, Joo replied:
“Not a scratch”. Joo confirmed to Dan that he missed the medical checkup as the doctor went
home for which Dan apologized. Upon his perception about money lenders Joo replied: Joo
replied: “They will refrain from it".
In fact, Joo has paid Dan’s entire debt to money lenders. Dan was surprised. He asked Joo that
he will pay back the whole amount. Joo said: “I just bought you with cold hard cash”. Dan wants
to go back to his home but Joo insists on living with him in Joo’s penthouse.
On reaching home, Joo put some rules of living in his house. Eat whatever you want but don’t
steal anything, be quiet when he is sleeping. Dan realized he needs to follow these rules in any
condition.

Dan reaches his old home and sees that demolition works begin. Everything is so old and worn
out there but the only thing he chooses to pick up is his grandma’s bridal wardrobe as she will
really want to see it on her way back from hospital. Upon inquiry about the wardrobe, Dan
explained his feelings to Joo who agreed to keep it in his house and went out for his evening
training session.
Dan is living in the joo’s house for ten whole days. He is thinking about a second job as he had
already received advance pay in bulk. Suddenly he received a call from Mr. Joo asking him to get
ready for today’s session. When joo comes back, he is happy to see Dan is ready for him and
said: “You did a good job getting ready”.

Joo’s ride has already begun. This time the things are going in a different position which is a quite
unique experience for Dan. He is thinking to himself: “How deep is he going to go? Joo wants
Dan to look at this weird sigh in the mirror too.
Dan says to himself: “It’s always so unique and different, have I really gotten used to it?” I wish
this was all just a dream”. The ride continues till night, meanwhile, Dan’s phone is ringing and the
call is coming from grandma’s hospital which surprised him at this time. He wants to attend to his
grandma but Joo is waiting for his ride to be finished.

Dan rushed towards the hospital to see if everything was alright. Nursing staff told him that his
grandma was facing respiratory issues last night and it could be the side effects of her
chemotherapy. Dan is feeling sorry for not being there along with his grandma during crucial
times.
As he forgot to bring his jacket when he was rushing to the hospital, he is feeling cold out there.
As he reaches Joo's residence, he needs to sleep for a while. In his dream, he had been lost in
the memories with his grandma when he was a child and couldn’t bear her absence. As he woke
up, he saw missed calls from the hospital which surprised him so he rushed towards the hospital
again.
As he reaches the hospital, he is amazed to see Mr. Joo there who is busy gossiping with her
grandma. She said about Joo: “Such a handsome face, and so big and strong and kind! What a
fine young man, I wish my little Dan was this healthy and solid”. Dan is thinking “What the heck is
going on?” At last, the medical attendant cleared the situation that he was calling Dan but didn’t
receive a response from him, meanwhile, Mr.Joo picked the phone and came to the hospital in
place of Dan. Dan was surprised…

The granny was so calm and comfortable in Joo’s company and she said “Thank You, Jaekyung,
really, Thank You”. Dan is extremely thankful to Joo who spared his precious time for his grandma
and also said sorry for being a bit rash last night. He also made him sure this will not happen
again. Joo left for his morning training session.
Medical attendant tells Dan: “Oh, I almost forgot! Mr.Joo settled up a few months’ worth of your
grandmother’s hospital bill too” which surprised him very much. Dan is thinking: “No matter how
hard he is on me, after this much help, it’s impossible not to feel grateful”.
On reaching home, Joo sees Dan is in the kitchen making breakfast for him. He is unhappy and
wants to stick with his routine breakfast but becomes ready to try this new recipe on Dan’s request.
He asked Dan to stick with his usual breakfast on match day only.
During the conversations held on the lunch table in the gym, the coach asked Joo about his
breakfast. He confirmed that he eats what Dan makes for him. All are surprised to know that Dan
is living in Joo’s house. Mr. Hwang Yoon-gu is thinking: “The two of them…are living together?”

Mr. Joo seems very professional in martial arts and his jujitsu skills are quite impressive which
makes him a world class athlete. Mr. Hwang (Potato) is very much impressed and is striving to
follow Jaekyung. Manager asks all the gym members to be ready and sweeps all their matches
while instructing Mr. Potato to stay in the gym and to make the things in order.
Dan asks Potato that he is available in coach’s room until Mr. Joo comes to the gym while Mr.
Potato is thinking about Joo: “He’s just so amazing and cool. He is the kind of person who only
comes around once every 100 years or maybe even in 1000”. Jaekyung comes in and asks
whether all are gone and you’re the only one left? Yes sir, potato replied.
Dan comes out and addresses Mr. Joo while Potato is feeling jealous with Dan and thinking how
close they both are with each other. He also wants to become closer to Jayekyung like Dan is.
He tries to get Mr. Joo’s attention while asking about tips and tricks but Joo is not interested and
told him that his posture is not even correct and doesn't interrupt anymore.
Potato asks Dan why he didn’t go with another gym member to watch the matches? Dan replied
he needs prior permission from Mr. Joo. Suddenly Joo comes and pulls Dan inside along with
him. This activity surprised Mr. Potato who was thinking: “What’s with all the commotion?”

Dan is trying to convince Mr. Joo that we may continue the ride in the home as Mr. Hwang is out
there and we can be seen here. Joo said: “Enough, I told you before, don’t interrupt the flow”. Dan
replied: “Yoon-gu will go into shock if he finds out about this”…

CHAPTER # 24.5 – SUMMARY
Dan is showing his concern about Mr. Hwang as he is outside. Suddenly Joo turned towards
Hwang and asked him to go and get coffee for him from the old place “Café TK”. Potato is super
excited as Joo asked him to get coffee for him. Now there were only two people present in the
gym, Mr. Joo & Mr. Dan.
Joo has started his rougher and unstoppable ride. Dan is feeling: “This position, it feels like he’s
drilling into me from above. His weight pressing down on me, I can’t breathe”.
Hwang makes a call to Joo asking about the flavor of coffee he would like to order. Joo asked him
to read the full menu items. He selected “Iced Americano” for himself and also handed over the
phone to Dan to order something. This is such a crucial moment for Dan to speak something while
staying in this awkward condition. Joo called this “Fun”…

Mr. Hwang is back to the gym along with coffee and is surprised to see Dan’s physical condition.
Upon asking about Jaekyung, Dan said: “Joo is washing up” and appreciated him for the drink.
Mr. Hwang is in a state of surprise and curious to know how Mr. Dan suddenly became sick. Dan
asked him: “Are you okay, Yoon-Gu? Your face just go so red”, he replied: “Really?! I just need
to go wash it, I’ll be back”.
Yoon-Gu couldn’t sleep last night and was making mistakes all morning as he kept thinking about
Joo's relationship with Dan. Upon reaching the gym in the morning, Yoon-Gu saw Dan was busy
cleaning the mess. He asked him: “What are you doing, Doc? This is my job, as the youngest in
the gym!”.
In the afternoon session everyone warmed up and did jujitsu today. Mr. Yoon-Gu, who doesn't
have any partner in the gym, saw Dan is trying something out on his own. Upon asking, Dan
replied: “I thought it would help me oversee Mr. Joo’s condition if I had a better idea of how all the
muscles worked for different moves”.
Yoon-gu suggested that he may ask for the help of any athlete. As all the athletes are busy, Yoon-
Gu offered Dan to do some practice with him about jujitsu. During the practice, Yoon-gu is thinking
about Mr. Joo, meanwhile, the coach interrupted and asked Yoon-gu: “You punk, you gotta be
careful! Doc could have passed out! And everything else aside, he is not an athlete!”.
Suddenly, Mr. Joo came and asked what’s going on? Upon confirmation, he became willing to
teach Dan about jujitsu skills. Team Black’s match of the century is about to begin…

“Ladies and gentlemen! We have a very special match unfolding today here at the team black
gym!”, the coach said. The handsomest fighter in all the land who has broken arcade’s punching
machine, The Joo Jaekyung is in the ring. On the other hand, the next challenger is Mr. Kim
Dan, who is not just an underdog but also team black’s shooting star and the healer with the
magic touch.
“If Doc Dan manages to get one hit to my face in the 3 minutes over 3 rounds, he wins”, Joo said.
Dan asked: “What if I win?”, Joo replied: “Then I’ll grant you a wish”.
The match begins with a solid punch on the Dan’s belly and he fells down. Coach comes up to
ask Dan if he’s all right, Dan said: “No, no I’m fine, I was just a bit…startled…”. Joo attacked again
in a harder way on his head which pushed him in a state of dizziness. As a result of this fight,
bleeding starts from Dan’s nose but he is still confident and willing to come back.
In the final round, Joo asked: “Get up Kim Dan, C’mon, you must have a lot of pent-up anger
against me”. Meanwhile, Mr. Hwang is thinking “Why would Doc Dan agree to do this? And why
would Jaekyung hyung go so hard on a newbie?
Manager comes along with fried chicken which shifts Joo’s attention for a while. Suddenly, Dan
pushed a knock on Joo’s face and won the game as per Joo’s declaration. As a result of the win,
it’s time for Dan’s wish to be fulfilled. Upon asking, Dan announced his wish as “I’d like you to
spar with Yoon-Gu, just once, that’s all… I ask”. All are amazed about Dan’s wish. Joo said: “Be
ready, by next week, potato”…

Today is the medical examination of Mr. Joo at the hospital. As a result of the examination, Joo’s
medical consultant shared his opinion with Dan and said: “He’s exerting himself too much. His
joints are under far too much stress and his shoulder, especially, is in bad shape”. He also
confirmed that Mr. Joo is usually very rough with his body and so runs a greater risk of incurring
new injuries all the time. He recommended at least one- or two-days rest for Mr. Joo in a week.
Upon reaching the gym, Dan shared the medical advice of a consultant with Joo’s Manager. He
also tried to convince Joo to take rest for one day in a week. Joo is unhappy with this medical
advice and is preferring to train himself but Dan insists and asks him, he will come up with some
rest activities.
Dan started to search for rest activities and went to Joo’s residence along with a few games. They
both played some games for a while but Joo got fed up in the end and went swimming. He is
feeling relaxed during swimming. Joo asked Dan: “Why are you just sitting there? Dan replied: “I
don’t know how to swim…I’ll just watch from here”. Joo pulls him in the pool and is ready to teach
him how to swim…

Joo has started his ride with Kim Dan. It’s always been a unique exercise for Dan. Joo wants Dan
to participate equally but it's not possible for him. Joo said: “Hey Kim Dan, Didn’t I tell you not to
break the flow?”. This time the ride continues in the pool.
Kim Dan started crying. Joo said: “What are you crying for? You’re a grown man, Doc…You can’t
just get all weepy all the time”. Joo can’t maintain more control over his body and his feelings…

Kim Dan woke up and was surprised to see it’s already night time. He is thinking where’s Mr. Joo?
As he walks through, he sees Mr. Joo is watching an old black & white movie while sitting in the
lounge. He asked him: “Have you eaten?”, he replied: “Yeah, I figured it out”.
Joo asked Dan to sit along with him to watch a movie which is a bit awkward moment for Dan as
he never did so earlier. Upon asking the reason for not sleeping yet, Joo confirmed whenever
there is no sleep, he used to watch old movies in spite of taking sleeping pills. Dan realized that
Joo is suffering from insomnia and asked him: “If you’re not getting proper sleep, or taking any
days off…you must be really exhausted”. But winning and staying as a champion is very important
for Joo.
Joo asked Dan: “Your wish, why did you use it on potato?”, he replied: “Well, because pota-no, I
mean, Yoon-Gu, worships you sir…and I noticed how disappointed he’d been over not getting to
train with you”. Joo asked: “So if potato wasn’t around, what would you have said?”, he replied
“nothing sir..”. On Joo’s insistence, he said it could be asking you to use rubber in spite of being
raw in your ride. Joo is not willing to accept this.
Joo’s coach is thinking it could be a big action scene coming up tomorrow and this’ll be fun…

The next morning, Dan is thinking he should meet his grandmother today and suddenly he saw
Mr. Joo in his washroom. Upon asking the reason, he confirmed: “My bathroom’s out of
toothpaste”.
As Dan reached the gym, he saw splendid lunch boxes there. Upon asking, the gym member
confirmed him, the famous actor “Choi Heesung” visits the gym today for a personal training
session with Jaekyung Hyung and whenever he comes, he brings these lunch boxes along with
him as gifts to the gym members. Being conscious, he walks through the training room to see
inside.
He asks the reason for personal training from the coach who confirmed that Mr. Joo is the leading
martial arts champion and Mr. Choi is a famous TV actor so Mr. Joo needed representation for
his commercial work and TV appearances and Mr. Choi needs training so he could film his action
scenes. Both are looking hotter in front of the camera. At the end of today’s session, Mr. Choi
loves to take selfies with Mr. Joo.
Suddenly, Mr. Choi’s manager noticed that his wrist hurt during the training session and
suggested he go for a medical checkup. Meanwhile, Dan asks: “Um, would you like me to take a
look?” and introduces himself as Mr. Joo’s personal physical therapist. He checked the wrist and
suggested that he use ice and take some rest.
Mr. Choi is very much impressed by the affection and sympathy shown by Dan and curiously asks
his name. Suddenly Dan remembered that he used to watch Mr. Choi in the drama along with his
grandma and she is a huge fan of his. Mr. Choi is touched by Dan while Mr. Joo is watching this
consciously…

On the next day, Mr. Choi brings a t-shirt for Dan and gifts for the other gym members. Dan is
reluctant to accept but he has to accept in the end. Mr. Choi has started coming to the gym
everyday whether or not he has a training session scheduled and each day, he brings a lot of gifts
including branded shoes, health supplements and electronics.
Mr. Choi presented a beautiful flower bucket to Dan which seems so expensive and Dan is
amazed to see this. He asked Mr. Choi: “You really don’t have to shower me with presents like
this every day. I just don’t understand why you are doing all this”… He simply replied to Dan:
“Why do you think? I’m trying to get closer to you”.
Mr. Hwang asked Dan: “Doc Dan, I don't like this. There’s a kind of darkness behind those eyes
of his”. Meanwhile, Joo asked Dan if he was coming along with him. On their way back home,
Dan is hesitant as he is bringing a bucket of flowers with him. He reluctantly asked Mr. Joo about
the flowers who showed his hate towards them.
The next morning, Mr. Choi is already available in the gym. He asked Dan: “I’ve been thinking, I’d
like you to treat me too! I’ve a ton of action scenes to shoot, and no time to get myself to the
hospital”. Mr. Joo, who was watching all this, asked Dan to do his duty and told Mr. Choi to come
to the training room when free.
Mr. Choi wants a sparring session with Mr. Joo today. His manager is hesitant as if he could injure
during the session, how would he perform his action scenes. Upon his insistence, the sparring
session began and Mr. Choi was hit by Mr. Joo. In spite of going to hospital, Mr. Choi wants to
have some regular sessions with Doc Dan. Mr. Joo is surprised…

Mr. Choi has agreed not to press charges in return for his personal treatment by Doc Dan. Dan
asked permission from Mr. Joo, who is feeling embarrassed for his last sparring session, to go
towards Mr. Choi for his treatment. As he comes out of the house, he finds Mr. Choi is there who
brings Dan along with him.
As the weekend is on, Mr. Choi purchased some precious gifts for Doc Dan. He also wants Dan
to select one designer dress for him but he refuses as he has already taken plenty of gifts. Feeling
hungry, Mr. Choi pressed Doc Dan to come up with him for lunch at the expensive restaurant.
Doc Dan wants to pay off the lunch bill but Mr. Choi lets him realize that it costs around $200 a
plate.
Mr. Choi asked Doc Dan about his working relationship with Mr. Joo as he knew that Doc Dan
lives 24/7 with Mr. Joo. Dan explained the reason why he had to leave his old home in a sudden
and Mr. Joo accepted him to live in his house. Meanwhile, Dan receives a call from Mr. Joo asking
him to come back urgently to give him treatment. Dan, feeling embarrassed, requested Mr. Choi
to let him go with a promise to come back.
Doc Dan tried to relax his muscles and gave him full treatment. Now, it’s time to go back towards
Mr. Choi’s treatment. He requested Mr. Joo who said: “I’ll give you a ride”. They both sit in the car
and Mr. Joo is bringing something in the paper bag. Mr. Joo asked Doc Dan to put a toy inside till
we reach Mr. Choi’s home. As he was feeling angry, he decided to make some fun with Doc
Dan…

Several months earlier, Mr. Choi and Mr. Joo met in the bar where Mr. Choi asked him: “What
brings you here? You don’t even drink! Did your latest partner run off again?” Mr. Joo got angry
with him. Mr. Choi told him that he only needs a perfect soulmate. He also clarified to him: “And
you know how it is. Once I’ve got my eye on something, I have to make it mine, even if it happens
to belong to someone else”.
Mr. Choi's manager asked him about his back pain. Mr Choi replied: “My back? Oh, not too bad,
it’ll be fine. It’s barely a sprain. I just wanted a session of my own with Doc Dan, so I played it up
a little bit”. Mr. Joo listened to this conversation secretly.
On their way towards Mr. Choi’s home, Mr. Joo teased Doc Dan with the toy and put him in a
state of misery. Dan is unable to eject it and is bearing with acute pain. He requested Mr. Joo a
lot of times but was not accepted. In the end, Mr. Joo began his rough ride in the car to fulfill his
Jinx.
Finally, Doc Dan reached Mr. Choi’s residence and said: “Apologies, Mr. Choi for being so late.
Let’s go ahead and get started right away”…

Doc Dan started Mr. Choi’s treatment for back pain which relieves so much to him. Mr. Choi is
thinking he shouldn’t allow Doc Dan to go back tonight as he is much aware of Mr. Joo’s nature.
He is of the view that Mr.Joo sleeps with the people but he never actually forms attachments.
Mr. Choi and Mr. Joo met in “Royal Spa & Sauna” where Mr. Joo asked him: “What the hell are
you doing here”? he replied: “What, you think you are the only VIP around?” Mr Choi asked him
about Doc Dan: “You just work together, right? Nothing more? I want to be clear about your
relationship”. He also said: “It’s almost like you don’t want Doc spending time with me. You don’t
actually have feelings for him, do you?” Mr. Choi left the spa while asking Mr. Joo to allow Doc
Dan to have a date with him.
Mr. Joo seems angry in the gym. Dan receives a message from Mr. Choi came to his residence
tonight for treatment. Dan replied: “Sure Mr. Choi. I can come by. I’ll just make it real quick this
time”.
As Doc Dan prepares himself to go towards Mr. Choi’s residence, Mr. Joo comes and asks him:
“Choi Heesung just called. Something just came up, so he needs to cancel”. He also said to him:
“There’s something I want to try with you. And since you’re now free tonight, you’ll do it, right?”
Meanwhile, he sent a message to Mr. Choi: “You still want to be clear about my relationship with
Doc Dan, right? Then come to my house?”
As Mr. Choi reaches Mr. Joo’s residence, he is surprised to see what’s going on inside. Mr. Joo
is riding very rough with Doc Dan. Mr. Joo said to him: “Keep your hands off what’s mine”. Mr.
Choi left his house in anger…

Doc Dan asked Mr. Joo: “Was someone just here? No..Right?”. No one was here, Joo replied
and he left the ride incomplete. The next day, Dan met with Mr. Choi in the café for some
discussion. Mr. Choi revealed the truth that he doesn’t actually have any back pain and he did so
only to keep seeing Doc Dan. He wanted to cancel the deal as he had seen Doc Dan with Mr. Joo
last night.
Dan also wants to focus on Mr. Joo’s physical health so he asked Mr. Choi said that he would
appreciate it if Mr. Choi takes back all the expensive gifts which are still unopened. Dan said: “I’m
sorry but I did enjoy the time we spent together. You’ll meet someone far better than me”. He
replied: “Jaekyung doesn’t deserve you. Honestly, if you have shown even the slightest bit of
interest in me, I would have kept trying to win you over, but Jaekyung made it impossible”. Meeting
ends with the remarks of Mr. Choi that Jaekyung has feelings for Doc Dan.
Team black gym members including Mr. Hwang met Mr. Choi in the bar in the night. Mr. Choi
confirmed to them that he wouldn’t be coming to the gym again as he has been rejected. Being
alone, he offered them to join him for drinking which they accepted. Being drunk, Mr. Hwang
asked Mr. Choi: “What do you think Love is?” He replied: “Just a pretty face and a nice personality,
the kind of thing where you are happy just looking at them”. Upon seeing Mr. Hwang’s condition,
Mr. Choi realized that he is also in the middle of a tragic one-sided crush.
Mr. Joo received a message from a Sports journalist asking him to comment on a given article.
As he clicked on the link given, he was surprised to see the content of the article mentioning about
the serious injury of Mr. Joo and speculating that the international mixed martial art champion
may have reached his expiration date. “Is This?”, Joo is thinking…

The next morning, Mr. Joo is looking very harsh at the gym and bashing the gym members very
badly. Manager announced that he has received the jackets for gym members and all may collect
them one by one. Suddenly all are rushed towards collecting their respective jackets and Mr. Joo
is looking smart while wearing black jacket. As the order has been placed prior to joining Doc
Dan, so there was no piece left for him, therefore, Mr. Joo gifted his own jacket to Doc Dan. Dan
is thinking how much Mr. Joo had contributed towards him.
In the break room, there is a meeting held with Team Black and Joo Jaekyung’s attorney to
address the matter reported in the media about the false news of Mr. Joo’s injury. She is surprised
to see the public comments on social platforms and is sure this false news has gone viral by the
hospital. She is committed to take a legal course regarding the more defamatory comments.
Manager and attorney asked Mr. Joo if he is interested in a match with “Dominic Hill” a
middleweight champion as Mr. Joo needs to demonstrate his strengths and it could help in
restoring the damage caused already by the fake news. As the opponent is middleweight
champion, so Mr. Joo needs to lower his weight in order to qualify for the match and there is only
one month left for the match. Joo agreed as he is of the view that he needs to prove his power in
the ring and it is the best way.
As the match is to be held in the US, therefore, Joo’s manager asked Doc Dan to get himself
ready for the tour as some other members including Mr. Hwang will be traveling also. As Doc Dan
never traveled outside so he became stressed to leave his grandma for a certain time. Mr. Joo,
who is already passing through stress, bashed Doc Dan again through his typical rough ride.
So the days passed, and the team arrived in America…

“A truly show-stopping match between a middleweight legend and a light heavyweight legend
awaits us”, the reporter said. Doc Dan is amazed to see Mr. Joo’s popularity across the borders
and is thinking that he has not taken rest yet. Mr. Joo started his running and doing heavy practice
immediately. He is looking harsh with everyone.
Doc Dan feels he must do something extra to help Mr. Joo through all this and it could be relaxing
his muscles before sleep or even to fulfill his pre-match jinx.
Mr. Hwang is feeling worried about Mr. Joo’s harshness and the coach advises him it’s not easy
to stay with Jaekyung. Doc Dan thinks that he is not helping Mr. Joo in an effective manner and
suggests to the coach that he must be replaced with some other team member. Coach suggested
him as this is his first match abroad so try not to be nervous at all. Meanwhile, he offered to have
dinner with them.
Suddenly Mr. Joo comes inside and is surprised to see them having dinner. He said: “You think
this is why I brought you here?” Dan said sorry to him immediately but Mr. Joo bashed him. There
is only 12 hours left in the match and Mr. Joo needs to lose 7 Kgs in order to qualify for the match.
The procedure started and it’s quite tougher for Mr. Joo to keep himself in the hot water for a
longer period.
The next morning, he succeeded to qualify by loosening his weight. Now, it’s time to take his
nutrition shake. Meanwhile, the doorbell rings and there is someone from MFC staff who gives a
glass of nutrition shake to Doc Dan and asked him to give it to Mr. Joo as part of his healthy diet.
As Mr. Joo had already taken the shake, Mr. Joo’s manager suggested Dan take it himself. As
Doc Dan takes it, his body is burning…

Doc Dan is feeling dizzy and his body is burning. He is lying down on the bed and is surrounded
by Mr. Hwang and the coach. Mr. Hwang asked: “Maybe it’s an allergic reaction or something?
Did you eat anything weird, Doc?” Suddenly he remembered that Dan had taken the nutrition
booster and maybe it resulted in raising his body temperature. He also suggested that Dan consult
with the doctor but Dan is of the view that he will be fine while taking proper rest.
They both went out to sleep as tomorrow is the big match but Doc Dan is feeling uncomfortable.
His body is feeling hot and he can feel his heartbeat through his whole body, head to toe. There
is also another reason behind as he has been addicted to fulfilling Mr. Joo’s pre-match jinx and it
is causing him anxiety. He went to the washroom to try to feel good by doing this with his hands.
As he comes out, he is still feeling uncomfortable.
At last, he went to Mr. Joo’s room and requested him to fulfill his jinx…

“You brought me here for your Jinx, right? Please give it to me”, Dan said to Mr. Joo, who was
surprised to see Dan’s condition. He said: “Have you really lost it?” He asked him to come back
in a couple of hours but Dan is not willing to move. He said: “I tried it but it didn’t work. Please
help me”.
Mr. Joo agreed and asked Doc Dan to show his intent. Dan started to fulfill his desire as well as
Mr. Joo’s pre-match jinx. By watching this, Mr. Joo realized that Dan had eaten something weird
which made him so burning. Mr. Joo has started his rough ride and this time Doc Dan is not
complaining any more. In a state of dizziness, Dan expressed his feelings to Mr. Joo and said: “I
Love You”. Mr. Joo was shocked…

The next morning, Mr. Joo took a shower, got ready and moved towards the arena while Doc Dan
was still sleeping. Suddenly Doc Dan woke up and saw there was only half an hour left for the
match to begin so he rushed towards the ring. All are present there to support Mr. Joo and he is
aware of the fact that today’s win will be enough to counter his critics.
Match begins with the signal of the referee and Dominique throws an elbow and it’s a solid hit
indeed. This solid hit left Jaekyung with a bleeding eye. No doubt, this is going to impair his vision
in the next round. In the next round, Jaekyung flies in like a bat out of hell and gives a solid hit to
his opponent. Dominique is honing in on Jaekyung’s left shoulder hit after hit. Wow, a swift counter
attack from Jaekyung. Ladies & Gentlemen, Joo Jaekyung emerges victorious.
Mr. Joo’s manager congratulated him for this splendid victory, meanwhile Mr. Hwang informed
him that he saw Doc Dan walking out with security. It could probably be an investigation about
the nutrition shake. Security man started interrogation and put a series of questions in front of
Doc Dan:
· What symptoms did you experience?
· Was the nutrition shake the only thing that you consumed yesterday?
· You didn’t take anything else? No other medication?
· What time did you receive the drink?
He took his blood sample and sent it to the forensic for a detailed medical report in order to check
if there is a drug sample found in the blood. Doc Dan told him that he can’t speak English so he
wants an interpreter.
Suddenly Mr. Joo came there and shouted at the security staff for their non-professional behavior
and raised a question on their security. He took Doc Dan along with him. Upon asking a question
by security staff about Mr. Joo’s relationship with Doc Dan, he said: “He’s one of my own”. Doc
Dan was shocked to listen this sentence from Mr. Joo…

As a result of the recent win, the media and public reached a fever pitch after proving that no
injury could keep him from victory. Everyone is excited and Mr. Joo’s match fee has been doubled.
Upon reaching back, Doc Dan went to the hospital and gifted a scarf to his grandma. She told him
that she watched the match on TV and showed his affection and love towards Mr. Joo for being
so caring for Doc Dan. Dan is thinking about Mr. Joo and is getting realized about his feelings for
him. Mr. Joo has always been on his mind.
In his meeting with Mr. Joo, Dan asked him about the update on the investigation regarding
nutrition shake. Joo made him clear that no narcotics were found in the drink. He also said: “Just
imagine if I’d been the one to knock back that drink, the match would have been canceled right
then and there”. He asked Dan: “You really don’t remember anything from that night?”, Dan
replied: “No, after I got to your room, I blacked out”.
Three weeks before Mr. Joo’s birthday, his local and foreign fans started sending him a lot of gifts
and much more yet to receive. Dan is thinking, Mr. Joo is thrilled to receive birthday wishes and
gifts but the case is quite the opposite as Mr. Joo prefers his birthday charity project.
Mr. Joo’s manager asked him if he is ready and fit for the next match. He immediately showed his
willingness but Doc Dan is curious about his shoulder injury. He requested Mr. Joo that his
shoulder is not in a good shape and he must be consulted with a doctor but Mr. Joo said: “Don’t
push it, I know my body better than anyone else, so shut it and start taping”. Dan said: “I’m sorry”…

Doc Dan is comparing Mr. Joo’s recent medical reports with the previous one and the difference
is obvious. Mr. Joo’s shoulder injury could be worse and may affect the other body parts as well.
Dan is thinking he needs to do something different for Mr. Joo to alter his mindset. Suddenly he
remembered, Mr. Joo’s birthday is coming up so he can shift his mood by giving him some gift
which he doesn’t have already.
On searching, he came to know that Mr. Joo’s leather keychain is no longer in a good condition
so he can gift a keychain to him but he was shocked to see the price of the keychain is worth
$700. As he couldn’t afford such an expensive gift, so he decided to go for some extra mile and
to save more money through which he can buy a gift for Mr. Joo. Dan started a food delivery job
at night to earn some extra money.
At the Sports Rehab Center, the trainer told Doc Dan: “If he keeps going at this rate, he’s going
to need surgery. For now, he can make do with the one good arm”. Dan replied: “Okay, I’ll talk to
him”. Dan tried to convince Mr. Joo but he gave a shut-up call to Doc Dan in return.
Dan knocked on the door to deliver some food, he was shocked to see a person who looked
familiar. He remembered the person was Mr. Joo’s Ex-Lover. He started explaining to Dan about
Mr. Joo’s mindset and his attitude towards his partners. He said to Dan: “You and I are no
different. Don’t be an idiot and delude yourself into thinking you’re special”. He also said: “Once
he gets sick of you, he’ll toss you to the curb, just like he did with all the others”. Dan was
shocked…

On his way back, Dan is continuously thinking about what the guy said to him about Mr. Joo. He
is thinking if he is only considered as a toy to fill Mr. Joo’s jinx. In the state of anxiety, he suddenly
falls down and gets hurt. As he was doing physical therapy, Mr. Joo noticed his injury and asked:
“What is this? Let me wipe you down”.
It’s dinner time and Doc Dan is sleeping on the table. Coach confirmed Mr. Joo: “Lately he’s been
skipping dinner to sleep. Just let him be”. Doc Dan received the gift which he bought for Mr. Joo
the day before his birthday and it includes a birthday card as well. Mr. Joo asked Dan to come for
work and they both went towards the gym.
Upon reaching the gym, all the members arranged a birthday celebration for Mr. Joo which he
was not expecting. This made him angry and he said: “What the hell is all this?” Coach came up
and said: “They went through all the trouble to set this up. Don’t be mad at them”. Everyone is
enjoying eating cake and is ready for the delicious dinner party hosted by Mr. Joo.
On the dinner table, Mr. Joo’s manager asked Doc Dan: “I think we scheduled his next match way
too soon”. Dan replied: “That’s fair, I worry about that too. He pushes himself because he hates
to lose”. Mr. Joo took dinner and ended up having a drink. He also told the gym members that
Doc Dan is going home with him. Mr. Joo said: “I’m drunk, so lead the way”. Dan is surprised as
he really is drunk…

Mr. Joo said to Dan: “Was it you who got me drunk?, while Dan said sorry to him. Dan is helping
him in reaching his bedroom and asking him to change his clothes and shoes. Joo, feeling sleepy,
laid on the bed in the same way. Upon Dan’s request to get up for a second, Joo started removing
his shirt and asked Dan if he was willing for the ride.
Dan is thinking about Joo’s situation as this was the first time he asked him for his willingness and
it seems he is a completely different person. He showed his willingness and got ready for the ride.
Dan is feeling excited and is enjoying its warmth and smell thoroughly. He wished time would just
stand still…

The next morning, Joo woke up and was thinking: “What happened last night?”. The doorbell rings
and the postman delivers a pretty big shipment consisting of gifts sent by his manager. Meanwhile,
Dan woke up on alarm beep as today is Mr. Joo’s birthday. He rushed towards Joo and wanted
to present him the gift he bought earlier.
Mr. Joo is feeling a headache and Dan said: “Oh..I’ll whip you up some soup to relieve you”. As
Joo doesn’t like the gifts, Dan is thinking if he should reveal the gift as Joo has done so much for
him. Dan asked him if he would come up with some external remedy for his current situation. Dan
presented Joo a “Car Keyring” as a gift which made Joo surprised at all. Upon asking the source
of the gift, Dan confirmed he chose a delivery boy job at night for some extra miles.
Mr. Joo asked: “Hey, Kim Dan, who asked you to buy this for me? I told you, your main concern
should be my physical condition. Do you really think I’d be happy to receive this piece of junk?”
Dan expressed his feelings to Joo who said: “Listen carefully, I hired you as my physical therapist
and paid all of your debts, focus on my physical health as my new match is around the corner,
otherwise I’ll replace you with another guy”...

Dan was surprised to see Joo’s reaction towards him. He realized that both Mr. Joo and his ex-
lover were right. He felt that he should be realistic as there was never anything between Mr.Joo
and him.
During a sparring session with the athlete, Mr.Joo asked him “For all your bragging about the
numerous nationals under your belt, yet you can’t even last four rounds?” He replied: “You think
you’re better than everyone? Stop letting that champion title get to your head, and learn some
basic human decency first!” Joo’s coach advised him to show some respect towards fellow
athletes as they are professionals in their own right and if they keep leaving like this, our gym’s
future is not looking too bright.
Joo;s manager advised him that they should be more careful these days as people are planting
spies at various gyms to bribe athletes and what if your boys might give away your game plans.
He also advised Joo’s coach to look after carefully if any of our guys are stirring up rumors and
also see what’s going on at the other gyms.
Someone is planning to teach a lesson to Joo by giving him a nutrition drink.

MFC Alfredo (Jaekyung’s opponent) has withdrawn from the match due to the injury sustained
during training. The match will be held with the different fighter “Baek Jumin” who is new to the
MFC but has gained a star quality and got matched up with a champion so early in his career. All
the gym members are curious about the new opponent as there is not much information available
about him.
Baek Jumin was like a living legend in the underground fighting ring and all are worried to know
this as he’s gotta be a total thug with zero manners. Joo’s manager is confident that he has
experience and a good physique so he can finish his opponent off with a decisive strike.
Doc Dan is focusing on his work only rather than thinking more about his past relationships with
Joo. He is conscious about his grandma’s medical reports and is thinking about his past when
she grew him up with love and affection. It made him surprised when medical staff revealed the
results of medical reports as the disease is not in control and the worst outcome may be expected.
He was broken in front of his grandma and meanwhile he received a message from the executive
director of Baek Jumin’s gym…

On the next day, someone met Doc Dan who introduced himself as the executive director of Baek
Jumin’s gym and asked him for his time. Initially Dan was not interested to meet him but when he
informed Dan about his grandma’s medical condition, Dan agreed to sit with him.
Following the gossip, he revealed his plan of meeting with Dan. He presented him with a lucrative
offer of doubling his salary, a German vehicle for pick and drop and accommodation and asked
him to join Baek Jumin’s gym. Also, he asked him to reveal the secrets of Joo’s physical condition
and his game plan for the match. He also tried to convince him by offering advanced medication
for his grandmother through his gym’s parent pharmaceutical company. Dan decided not to steal
Mr. Joo’s secrets at any cost.
Upon Joo’s arrival at the home at midnight, Dan thought to offer him a massage for relaxing his
muscles but he was busy watching his opponent. Dan also tried to reveal his today’s meeting with
the executive director but Joo was not interested to listen. Dan thought he would share the details
later on. Meanwhile, Joo received the pictures of Dan’s meeting with Baek Jumin’s director from
an unknown caller…

One day before the match, there is a face to face interaction between Joo Jaekyung and Baek
Jumin who has earned a spot in the final for his remarkable skills. Coach advised Joo to stay calm
and satisfied as his skills are far better than his opponent. Meanwhile, Baek’s executive director
addressed the Joo’s coach and Baek Jumin met Mr. Joo. Initially he showed some respect and
later on he whispered which shocked him.
While taking a shower, Joo was thinking about Baek’s words which were: “I’ll be taking that
champion belt soon, so make sure you give her a good polish”. On the match day, Doc Dan is
checking pain relieving spray on himself in order to check the authenticity. He has become over
conscious of Mr.Joo after the nutrition drink incident.
Suddenly, Baek’s director came in to the dressing room and started a conversation which make
Mr. Joo frustrated and he rushed towards him. As all gym member’s attention diverted towards
this incident, someone replaced the pain relieving spray in between. Upon applying the spray on
Joo’s feet, it started showing adverse reactions…

Baek’s director confirmed with his assistant about the successful replacement of Jaekyung’s pain
relieving spray. Director said that he has already sent a picture with Joo’s physiotherapist to him
to shake things up. Meanwhile, Joo’s foot starts burning and Naamwook asks Dan: “Explain
yourself Doc Dan! Didn’t you check for any issues with the spray ahead of time?”. Dan replied: “I
did just now actually, it was fine just a moment ago”.
The match was about to start in fifteen minutes, so Joo decided to dress the wound and wear an
ankle guard. Dan tried to start dressing but Joo smacked him and said: “Don’t touch me”. All
members are showing concerns about Joo's foot condition. Doc Dan is in a state of surprise about
what is happening around.
Joo Jaekyung is entering the ring and this is the tenth title defense, truly an impressive feat. Match
begins and Baek Jumin is coming with a clinch and he is stomping on his visibly injured foot as
this does not officially constitute a foul. Jaekyung is hitting back with a vengeance. In the next
round, Baek hit Joo's weaker left shoulder to take him down which made Jaekyung in trouble.
Jaekyung throws an elbow and both fighters are back on their feet again…

“We will now resume the match”, the referee said. Joo Jaekyung starts hitting on Baek Jumin’s
face and throws a round kick after that. Baek Jumin executes a clinch and is attacking on his
injured foot. He avoids Jaekyung’s right hook and immediately counters with a calf kick.
Joo Jaekyung is struggling hard and his foot injury is making him in trouble to put any weight on
his leg. Jumin said to him: “Your punches are so slow, I can see them coming from a mile away!”
Round four has been concluded and the final round has started. Baek Jumin is using the old in-
and-out strategy and is racking up points with his clean and effective strikes while Joo is struggling
to dodge him.
Match is ended and all are waiting for the judges to announce the winner. The result is announced
as “A Tie!” It was certainly a close fight but this is the first for the champion Joo Jaekyung. After
a series of glorious winnings, this outcome can be considered as a devastating loss.
Doc Dan comes and says to Joo: “I’m sorry, sir… I should’ve taken the time to double check.. I
swear it was fine when yoon-gu and I checked”. As Joo has seen the picture of Dan with Baek
Jumin’s director so he starts considering him as a “Spy”. He asked Dan: “How much money did
Baek Jumin offer you?” It was unbelievable for Doc Dan and he replied: “I would never do that to
you …not even for a million dollars”. Joo said: “Get out of my sight”.

Jaekyung is admitted to the athlete's center where a doctor examined his foot and said: “Due to
the assault on his ruptured blister, he needs proper treatment to heal, however, for his left
shoulder, he needs to consult a reputable hospital as soon as possible”.
Suddenly they were amazed to see Baek Jumin who was in the next bed. His director is praising
him for his fight against Jaekyung. Jumin said: “Joo Jaekyung’s all talk, he was nothing special.
Am I now an interim champ then? He addressed Joo and said: “Next time I won’t go easy on you.
You ain’t even the champ anymore”. It resulted in loss of Jaekyung’s temperament and he rushed
towards him to throw a punch.
Media spread the news of Jaekyung's disqualification for 90 days as per MFC medical issue
disciplinary action and is undergoing a shoulder injury. As Mr. Hwang reached the gym, he came
to know that the majority of the gym members left and have joined Baek Jumin’s gym which
surprised him very much.
As he came out, he saw one of the outgoing members met him and took him to a restaurant where
all other members were sitting. They tried to convince Mr. Potato leaves Team Black’s gym as
there is nothing left after Jaekyung’s defeat and disqualification but he is denied. Meanwhile, he
heard how Baek Jumin’s director bet on this fight and swapped Jaekyung’s medical supplies in
order to make him suffer a loss.
Mr. Hwang went to Jaekyung and told him the entire truth and confirmed to him that Doc Dan is
not a spy, rather he checked all the supplies carefully. Nammwook said: “You were too harsh on
him this time. You blew up on him without even getting the facts straight”. Jaekyung got hyper
and his manager slapped him this time for being so heartless. Kim Dan is not there at all…

Kim Dan is packing up all his things at Mr. Joo’s residence and decided to dispose of her
grandma’s bridal wardrobe. Grandma wished to go towards the ocean as she wanted to
remember her memory of being there during her childhood. Dan is ready to fulfill his grandma’s
wish. Dan wrote a resignation letter and a few words for Mr.Joo as he thought face to face
interaction would be so awkward in the present situation.
Naamwook revealed Dan’s decision to Mr. Joo, which surprised him very much. He also made
him realize about his harsh behavior towards an innocent guy. Mr. Joo is thinking about his
relationship with Kim Dan.
As he reaches his residence, he sees two guys inspecting a bridal wardrobe which is held for sale
by Kim Dan. He shouted: “Hey, Kim Dan! Where are you? Who gave you permission to-”,
meanwhile, he found Dan’s resignation letter on the table. Dan has resigned from the job of
physical therapist and promised that he would gradually pay all his debts on a monthly basis. He
apologized Mr. Joo for all the trouble he caused and wished him a quick recovery for his shoulder.
Joo finds Team Black’s shirt which he gifted to Kim Dan and throws it out as he is feeling like shit.
