Synopsis

Won-Il used to be a promising swimmer like his father. Won-Il’s father dies in a swim competition doing his specialty called “no-breath” which leads to his mother’s death. Since then, he can never forgive his father and quits swimming. Living like there is no tomorrow with his easy-going attitude, Won-Il seems hopeless. When Won-Il gets expelled from school, his father’s friend, Jae-Suk puts him into a physical education high school to start swimming again. There he meets his long-ago rival, Woo-Sang who was always overshadowed by Won-Il. With Won-Il’s absence, Woo-Sang took up the first place and became the national swim star. He is completely opposite to Won-Il for all he cares is winning. His obsession for winning gets him into trouble in a world championship game and now he is back to the school. Won-Il’s return is unwelcomed by Woo-Sang but Won-Il does not care. Then Jae-Suk’s daughter, Jung-Eun captures both Won-Il and Woo-Sang’s hearts and reignites the rivalry. The two very different restless youths start on the swim competition for the love and friendship which is in fact, the rite of passage to grown-up.
