Infinite Challenge (무한도전)

[The first ever downtown car race.]

[The KSF (Korea Speed Festival) Songdo Race has begun!]

[And final three racers won tickets to the big race.]

[And White Angels, the minor leaguers.]

Today we're here because the writers have something to tell us?

[Head Coach Yoo Kyung Rok wanted to talk with them.]

So, what made you call a meeting?

I'm here because

KSF has been delayed because of what happened with the Sewol ferry,

Ah... till when?

- I think it'll be held in July. - That's in two months?

That gives us more time to practice.

Because there's enough time, Jae Suk and Joon Ha can compete in the Masters class.

Pardon?

We can't handle the Masters class yet.

As your head coach, I think the Masters class is a good fit for you both.

- Make your decision! - Then I'll do it!

Do you agree with his recommendation?

You only thought about it for a second.

What can else can I do? The coach wants me.

- One of the players is missing... - Yes, that's true.

That's why we'll select one more racer.

What will the process look like?

Don't you think we should decide with a race?

That makes for two for the Challengers class and two for the Masters class.

- I still have a chance, don't I? - Yes.

Don't I?

- I have another announcement. - What is it?

When you look at race cars, they're covered with sponsors.

- We need to find sponsors. -

But not sponsors who support us. We want brands that we're supporting.

If you have a cause you would like more people to know about.

And it hasn't been decided yet?

You can choose your own causes as you're so inclined.

- Your car needs to be noticeable. - You need to lead the pack.

You need to draw a lot of attention to help your sponsors.

I understand, Coach. We'll train hard for the race.

[They have another reason to train hard.]

Coach, let's see what you've got on the speedway.

Everyone, how are you? 'Infinity Challenge!'

Finally, we're wearing these jumpsuits once again.

Isn't it over already? No?

The festival has been postponed. As you see, it'll be on July 4 to 6.

It's the first street racing festival ever held in our country.

But the circuit is totally different from the ones we've been practicing on.

It doesn't have as much cushion.

If you spin out or lose control, it's game over.

[Unlike the practice tracks, the real circuit is much narrower.]

- It's so dangerous now. - It's not that wide.

- His name was... - Yoo Sang Rok.

[These two knuckleheads forget their coach's name.]

Because it's been so long.

Okay, here's Head Coach Yoo Kyung Rok.

So fancy.

Don't try to look fancy.

It's not time to wear something like that, Coach.

His hair is very well-moisturized.

Are you a trot singer or what?

Coach, select one of us White Angels.

- Ah, that's right. - We have prepared four cars.

I won't say who, but one of you keeps changing his mind.

He tells the writers, 'I'll do my best,' but now it's, 'I don't want to do this.'

After two big accidents...

[While on the Inje Circuit, he spun out big time.]

[He kept training hard, even after that.]

[The car was half-trashed after another crash.]

- Let me say this. - What, what is it?

I should at least try.

- But why you keep changing your mind? - No, no.

- I won't do it, I won't. - Just do it. Come on.

Up until now, we've used other people's cars to practice.

- But now they're ours? - Yes.

Let's take a look at them. One for each of us. And another person will...

Oh!

[Two cars for the Masters class. Two for the Challengers class.]

How are you?

They've were tuned up just today.

- Then can we... - Yes, let's take them for a ride.

Shall we? I see.

- Let's go for a ride. - Go, go, go, go.

I forgot how to drive.

If you make one mistake, it's an immediate game over.

- One mistake and no second chance, right? - Of course not.

Let's go.

It's narrows right away at the entrance.

- So be extra aware for your safety. - How dangerous.

Wow, it's so narrow.

[A street circuit is especially narrow.]

[Compared to the previous practice circuits]

One of a kind in Korea, the Incheon Songdo Street Circuit.

Turn, turn more!

This is the first turn.

The wall is right there.

I'll crash into it for sure.

The walls make me nervous.

You have to use the rear view mirror to get the full view of it.

[Since it's got nothing for cushioning a mistake can mean a crash.]

It's so intimidating.

This is where a professional driver got into an accident.

Ran right into it.

Wow, it makes sense, I can see why.

It's so scary.

This is the section where it takes a lot of steering.

[This corner will have a huge impact on the lap times.]

Wow, what do I do about this one?

Isn't this too difficult?

[It's important to follow the racing line for this one.]

[It's the last section before the finish line.]

[Most of all, you have to drive through it as fast as possible.]

[Driving over a curb slows you down but shortens the path.]

This is so difficult.

The guardrails are so close. It's so intimidating.

And having to shift gears so often so quickly is very confusing.

[Which means you'll be shifting gears frequently.]

It's confusing. The only way to go is a lot of practice. And it really is difficult.

[Their first test drive on Songdo Circuit.]

[Two of the best, Jae Suk and Joon Ha, go on a test drive.]

[It's not an easy circuit, even for pro racers.]

So narrow.

[But their drivers' instincts come roaring back to life.]

[The minor leaguers are fighting hard]

[to win the last ticket to the big league.]

What's happening?

- Turn left now. - It doesn't even have a sign.

[The White Angels work very hard to learn the circuit.]

[It's quite noticeable how Hyung Don is getting better every lap.]

- Look at Hyung Don. - He's doing really well.

- How is that happening? - Hyung Don is really good.

Yeah, he has it. Hyung Don is good.

[I, Hyung Don, will take the last ticket.]

What's the deal with Ha Ha? What's happening?

Based on the current lap time, Hyung Don is faster.

That's amazing.

[Who'll get the last ticket to the big league?]

Based on lap times, Hyung Don has the fastest lap time.

To select the last competitor, we'll do five laps

per person and the one with the fastest record wins.

[He has every skill down and he's the fastest learner.]

If I can use what I learned, I could go for the win.

[But at crucial moments, when it counts, he keeps making mistakes.]

The wrong gear, agh!

Jung Hyung is an unlucky driver.

[Hong Chul is all about studying hard and working harder.]

[He couldn't even start the engine.]

Wow, there it is, there it is.

I finally found a car with stick.

Oh, into second gear now.

He drove hours to get here, practicing with a stick shift.

[Persevering with the power of positive thinking.]

[He had speed and precise steering.]

[But he got into two accidents by trying too hard.]

[He lost his aggressive and precise steering.]

[Today, will he able to overcome the trauma?]

[The last ticket to the big time.]

Let's go!

- Why does he look like a delivery guy? - For Scaredy Cat.

Here we go. It's a 'Let's go! Party time!' start for Myung Soo.

- Pretty fast. - He is.

[He bites down hard and pulls off a U-turn.]

Maybe Myung Soo's been hiding his true skills?

Aren't his nicknames 'The Raging Racer' and 'The Devil'?

He was only about rage.

[I'll harness my dormant rage and become the best once again!]

[His best lap was 1 minute and 56 seconds.]

How did he shave it down by four seconds?

Of course, of course he does best when he doesn't over think it.

He's someone who won't take any coaching from anyone.

[His laps get faster and faster.]

This one feels faster.
