Like Flowers in Sand

Feeling despondent about his footing in the ssireum world, Kim Baek-du competes in a new tournament — coming up against a formidable opponent.

Baek-du encounters an old friend who persistently denies knowing him. But he later sees her become the manager of his team and deduces her identity.

No longer a wrestler, Baek-du contemplates other career paths. After the coach suddenly quits the team, Oh Yu-gyeong tries to get to the bottom of it.

Kwak Jin-su challenges Baek-du to a ssireum match for the role of coach. But the match is interrupted when the police take Baek-du away for questioning.

After finding out Yu-gyeong's ruse, Baek-du rejoins the ssireum team. They later pay a visit to Lim Dong-seok to investigate the former coach.

Amid the ongoing investigation, Baek-du trains for an upcoming match. But when Jin-su suddenly sidelines Baek-du, Yu-gyeong stands up for him.
