SYNOPSIS

The Covid-19 pandemic changed everything. Besides the change of daily life, the clock of the ground that should have been filled with heated crowds stopped after 38 years. This is the time to wait for a new beginning. And precious memories help the long wait — such as the fall of 1984. That fall, he crossed the ground saying, “Let’s do this.” And he made the best drama of the history of KBO.

DIRECTING INTENTION

September 14th, 2011. My hero who dominated my childhood became a star in the sky. In the fall of 1984, he walked towards the mound crossing the ground. When everyone doubted him, he made a miracle. He completely busted himself with his fiery fighting spirit for the miracle. He passed away after saying that if he’s born again, he’ll set the time to that fall day once again. Even if the world returns to normal, we can no longer see him. However, reliving the memories of the 10 days of 1984’s fall season gives us the courage to go on.
