The movie "One Win" (directed by Shin Yeon-shik) will be released to audiences on December 4th. The distributor, Artist Studio, announced on the 4th, "The volleyball-themed movie 'One Win' will be released on December 4th. It will showcase a battle of unique characters."
A lineup video of the volleyball team "Pink Storm" in the movie was also released. Director Kim Woo-jin (played by Song Kang-ho) was introduced. The players were sidelined, and he was seen fiddling with a fishing rod from the referee's stand.
True to his reputation as a losing coach, during a game strategy timeout, all he could say was "Let's do well." For this reason, "Pink Storm" had lost every match without securing a single win.
Next in line was team owner Kang Jung-won (played by Park Jung-min). He exhibited all the traits of a professional attention-seeker. He habitually published autobiographies and impulsively conducted live broadcasts.
Despite being the owner of a volleyball team, he had no knowledge of the sport. When there was a shortage of players, he suggested "Buy players," and when funds were low, he proposed "Sell players," leaving everyone speechless.
The bittersweet moments of team captain Bang Soo-ji (played by Jang Yoon-ju) followed. She remained a benchwarmer for 20 years. When she finally took to the court, she couldn't read the signs and was substituted.
When the coach suggested changing her position by saying, "If you go to the center now, you can play until you're forty," she retorted, "I'm already forty." Her thin but enduring resilience brings humor.
The court is also filled with a variety of players, including foreign player Yuki (played by Lee Min-ji). The film forecasts the delightful exploits of "Pink Storm," a team on the brink of breaking up due to lack of skills and teamwork.
Meanwhile, "One Win" tells the story of a coach who has never won, a team owner who has no intention of winning, and players who don't know how to win, as they take on the challenge for the first victory in professional women's volleyball.
