Shin and Joe, former ping-pong rivals who once faced each other in a national youth match, meet again years later on very different paths from the dreams they once had. They decide to play together once more — in an empty practice room, a match with no score, no audience, and nothing at stake. Yet through the quiet rhythm of the rally, they begin to revisit their past, listen to each other’s hearts, and rediscover what the game truly means to them.
A surprise sequel takes place ten years after the original movie based on the title of the same name, but with a twist to the fairy tale.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single woman will be happiest if she marries a man with a good fortune, similar upbringing, matching attractiveness levels, and compatible politics.
