Synopsis:
The life of a former Korean national team’s soccer player did not turn out the way he hoped it would. He moves to East Timor to coach a junior soccer team only to find the kids running around barefoot. Instead of coaching, he opens a sneaker shop and hopes to earn some money. Since everybody is broke, his business fails. Exhausted and miserable, he decides to coach the kids for free and prepare them for the international championship junior soccer games in Japan.
