The Story

 

A struggling badminton coach takes a job working with a middle school team in the countryside to help support his family.  But his children aren’t thrilled about the move.  And when they arrive to find a team on the verge of disbandment, who don’t even have enough members to compete, he realizes that he is going to have his work cut out for him. His task is easy.  If he can win a championship, the team will continue to get funding, otherwise it will cease to exist.  To make matters worse, the dorms are forced to close and he has no choice but to take in his 3 team members.  But  the surprises continue when his wife, who is also a coach, shows up with 2 of her team members as well.  Now they will live as one big happy family, as Coach tries to raise up a competitve, winning team.

Should I Watch

 

Racket Boys - Unspoiled Review

“Racket Boys” is a life drama focusing on team work and family with a sports theme.  As I did some research on this series, I was surprised to see that reveiws and ratings for this one are all over the place.  But I get it. This is not your average kdrama. First of all, not everyone is interested in becoming invested in a group of middle school badminton players.  Second, the humor and story are quirky and silly.  (Again, middle schoolers!) I can see why it might not resinate with certain fans.  But I am not one of them.  The humor reminded me of “Prison Playbook”, which I also loved and is by the same writer.  The character and relationship development is solid, and even the village locals have interesting side stories.  This young cast will win your heart and have you rooting for them.  If you’re on the fence, I recommend you give it a try.  You may even develop an interest in the sport of badminton! I give “Racket Boys” a 10 out of 10 ramen.
