Synopsis

For 42 years, from 1956 to 1997, 620 students who were Korean residents in Japan visited their homeland every summer to play baseball. They were the student baseball team of Korean residents in Japan. They made it to the Korea high school baseball championship finals three times. In 1982, baseball in Korea became professional. The filmmakers embark on a journey to find those players who were mainly from Osaka, Japan, and bring them back to throw out the first ball at the Jamsil Baseball Stadium, the mecca for Korean baseball.
