Operation Proposal

Episode 7

It's not just any button.

It's been lying against my heart for three years.

It's like a black box that has recorded everything from my school years.

The button...

If I had given her that button properly,

maybe Yi Seul would have wanted to put it in there...

My second button.

You thief!

Give it back! Give baseball back to my brother!

I'm sure there's someone by your side.

Someone who would feel sadder than you if you gave up baseball.

I'm Ham Yi Seul.

Kang Baek Ho would never harm me.

Yi Seul has been by my side all along.

I thought I could confess my feelings at any time.

This...

is your first kiss.

What are you doing?

Kang Baek Ho, you...

Just because I let you have your own way,

don't think that you can play this kind of joke on me!

If you act like this again, I'll tell Grandpa.

Hold on. Hold on. Yi Seul! Yi Seul, that's not what I meant. Honest!

Don't follow me.

- I'm telling you, it doesn't work. - That's impossible.

Don't say anything else, just give me a refund.

Why is this causing so much trouble?

Let me ring him up first.

"I've seen you many times before," is that what you want to say?

Yes.

I have a very common face.

That's what all my customers say.

But why doesn't this work?

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hello, everyone.

The once a year Valentine's day has arrived.

It's like the velvety smoothness of

- gourmet chocolates lovers gift each other. - Gourmet chocolates.

To single people, this day is bittersweet,

- like the flavor of whiskey-filled truffles. - Whiskey-filled truffles.

But, what's certain is at the very least

you'll feel a longing for love on this day.

Hey, Kang Baek Ho, why are you still not here?

Where?

Hey, why do you always forget everything?

Did you forget?

Today is Yi Seul's engagement ceremony.

Hey, are you listening?

Aren't you going to come and congratulate her?

Hello?

Hel...?

[You are cordially invited to Kwon Jin Won and Ham Yi Seul's engagement ceremony...]

Did you get in touch with him?

He was still sleeping, wasn't he?

No, it didn't seem like it.

Is he really going to come?

Maybe... yes.

Maybe?

Wow, Coach.

- You look very handsome. - You're handsome.

What are guys like me going to do?

How could you be so handsome?

You shouldn't be the ones to compliment me. My bride should be telling me I'm handsome.

How do I look?

No one can call me a cradle robber now, right?

No matter how handsome you are, people will still say that.

An old teacher takes advantage of his position to seduce a young student.

What old teacher and young student?

You think you're filming some twisted TV drama?

Also, Coach looks five years younger than you.

Hey, Chae Ri.

Even if it's the truth, you still shouldn't be so blunt.

- What the heck? - Yi Seul.

Whose daughter is this who's so pretty?

She's my daughter, but I don't know if she's yours.

You, what's that supposed to mean?

Yi Seul.

We need to practice the steps for the bride's entrance.

That's not until the wedding ceremony.

Huh?

You don't do that at the engagement?

Oh, I...

Father, you spent all night practicing, didn't you?

You've got me.

Hey, Kang Baek Ho.

What are you doing?

I said you didn't have to come here today.

I want to be here.

Oh, it's okay.

I have to play today.

The first game?

Yes.

Why are all the guys competing in the practice game so hard-working?

Your expression makes it seem we're playing in the WBC (World Baseball Classic) finals.

It doesn't matter if you're on the first team or second,

or if it's practice versus a real game, a game is a game.

Also, I really want to be on the pitcher's mound today.

I don't want to show you the tears that I grudgingly hold back.

All right. Get ready, Kid.

I only feel alive when I'm pitching.

If I don't play baseball right now, I feel like I'll really lose my mind.

Turn around and close your eyes.

I dislike myself and detest you.

"It's not the actual wedding ceremony."

I no longer think like that, that fortunately it's not the wedding.

Why did you not tell me and just kept pacing?

That's why I didn't know.

What do I have to do to make Yi Seul choose me instead of Coach?

No, I mean why does she still choose Coach instead of me?

You foolish person.

I'm so angry.

The things you hoped for and desired all this time,

No, be more honest, Kang Baek Ho.

You're not angry because of Yi Seul.

how can you let it slip away like this

The Kang Baek Ho who is still an idiot up until now,

and stay awake all night pounding your heart?

that person is you.

Not realizing it's love,

I hate myself for losing you again.

Foul.

Even if I turn back time,

I can't hold onto you

because I'm a fool.

I can touch you if I stretch out my hand.

Did I realize it only now after letting you go from right under my nose?

I can say it now...

You don't know anything.

Baek Ho, you...

I love you.

really don't know anything.

I love only you.

Even though I call you frantically with a sorrowful heart,

you do not look back.

Not realizing it's love,

- Kang Baek Ho! - Kang Baek Ho!

Hey, Kang Baek Ho!

Th... That punk, what is he doing?

I hate myself for losing you again.

Even if I turn back time,

I can't hold onto you

Thank you for coming.

because I'm a fool.

You should have the wedding soon.

If you started brawling earlier,

our engagement ceremony would have gotten canceled.

Thanks for at least waiting until after the ceremony to cause a ruckus.

I'm sorry.

Yi Seul didn't come.

I didn't let her come.

If it were me, I wouldn't want her to see me like this.

You rudely started a fight on the field today.

I don't want to ask the reason.

But before you make trouble next time,

give Yi Seul and me a sign beforehand.

I'm sorry, Coach.

Whether as your coach or your agent, I haven't fulfilled my duties.

Later, you have to apologize to Yi Seul wholeheartedly.

I'm sure you know what her personality is like.

Oh, you startled me.

Hey, for someone who's about to get married,

you're pretty brave to come to the park alone.

You're here.

I'm sorry.

For what?

For not coming to the engagement ceremony?

Or for getting disciplined for misconduct?

Both.

Aren't you tired of it?

What? The swing?

No, that movie.

It's my mentor.

Tom Cruise?

It's Jerry Maguire.

You don't know, do you?

I...

originally wanted to become a better agent than Jin Won is.

I wanted to become a smart and successful agent,

and then become Kang Baek Ho's Jerry Maguire.

That was my dream.

I should've studied harder...

and become a more capable person.

If the player has faith in that agent, there must be something special about her.

That's how I wanted people to think of me.

Hey, are you Princess Pyong Kang or something?

Looks like you do realize you're similar to Ohn Dahl the fool.

Hey!

Here, this is for you.

What is this?

I was away on a business trip during Christmas and we didn't see each other.

I forgot about it but then I remembered today.

This...

might turn out to be my last Christmas present to you.

Up to now, I've been continuously telling you things like:

Stay strong, cheer up, and work hard.

But today, I want to tell you something else.

Kang Baek Ho,

it's okay even if you stop trying.
