What it is about

A pitcher who can't throw strikes and his unlikely manager form a heartfelt bond.

What to expect

Adapted from a web series, this 88-minute Korean drama pairs a pitcher who has lost his strike with an unlikely manager. The movie leans on the quiet, evolving bond between them rather than on game-day tension, so it suits viewers looking for a gentle character piece more than a sports thriller. It opens in Hong Kong on 22 October 2026, playing 70 screenings across seven cinemas in all seven districts. Tickets start at HK$60. Korean dialogue with English and Chinese subtitles.
