At the same time, So Negishi (Mansai Nomura), head of the corporation that owns the team, has his own agenda that doesn't always align with Jun's. As Jun clashes with players and staff alike, everyone is forced to reconsider what winning and teamwork really mean to them. This drama was adapted from the 2019 Korean drama of the same name.
