He was searching all over the world to train one last boxer. Coach K visited many gyms to find the boxer, but none of them caught his interest.
Until one day, he crossed paths with Yu, who was getting punched by his seniors with an excuse that he was being respectful to them.
Coach K sensed that Yu lacked the desire to struggle for fame and dominance. He did not have the same hunger for superiority that every human being had.
