"No!" "No problem!" "Than how can you believe me?" "I know you were also a boxer once." "A boxer never lies." "O.K. Thank you." "Doesn't it hurt when you get beaten up?" "You sometimes get beaten up, don't you?" "When you focus on the match it feels as if you didn't get one hit." "Though you look terrible after the match."

"Hey, Duk-koo the dog!" "Let's spar." "Why?" "You embarrassed?" "You are still a kid." "What the hell are you doing?" "Who told you to spar without my words?" "A tadpole needs water to survive." "If you forget about your past..." "when you were only a tadpole... and forget about the water-feeder then you are only a frog, not a man" "I'm quitting from today on." "Why?" "You embarrassed?" "I got something else." "Hey, Sang-bong." "The coach wasn't there for me at the corner." "It was more disappointing than when I went to see my father." "Is he strong?" "Who?" "Mancini?" "His father used to be a famous fighter, but he failed to become a champion because of the war." "He used to be good, and that's why his son became a champion instead." "Then he must be strong." "I shall kill him or I'll get killed." "How could you say that?" "Don't cry." "I'm not going to die, am I?" "I'll certainly win" "Don't come to the airport." "we'll announce our marriage when I become a world champion." "wait for me." "Can I ask you something?" "Huh?" "If someone told your son to box like Menthony, would you do it?" "If he insists." "How about you?" "Me?" "I don't know, man." "This is a Life and Death Match." "Who is it?" "Byung-gu, you asleep?" "Yes." "How do you feel?" "This is a Life and Death Match..." "You should remember such a thing in your heart..." "Understood?" "Go to sleep early" "Good night, sir" "Left, right!" "Mancini is dashing vigorously." "Will you be okay?" "Duk-koo, Duk-koo" "Duk-koo, Duk-koo Can you hear me, Duk-koo?" "If you have anything to say tell me at home." "There are too many people here." "No, I have to tell you now." "I'm not dead yet." "I am alive." "Why is everyone telling me I'm dead?" "Mom, I slept last night." "I think Duk-koo will return today." "I had a good dream." "I'll drop by." "Let's go home." "I want to go in."
