'When the opportunity comes.. I will do my best to make sure it succeed
s !’ As training was coming to an end , we had one last platoon soccer
match . As expected that day , our platoon was losing 2 to 0 to the other
platoon . When the first half ended, I begged Assistant Choi , who was in
charge of the squad, to let me play .
“ Hey, torturer . You think soccer is a kid's game?“Go over there and c
heer.”I once again had to sit back and cheer as my opinion was ignored .
, our platoon allowed another goal, making it 3-0 , and it seemed like the
y had no energy to make up for it .
at that time ,,,, “ Hey , torturer ! “You go out !” The squad leader's sh
out could not have been so welcome . Since it was a losing game , I think
the idea was to give up and use people's hearts for once .
For your information, in my opinion, the soccer level of the trainees that
day was only at the level of so-called 'neighborhood soccer' , and since I
was a former player who dreamed of becoming a representative player, I
was virtually no match for them .
As soon as we got into the middle of the second half , I kicked as many a
s 7 goals into the opponent's goal in the remaining 20 minutes . It would
have been more accurate to simply say that he 'played with' the opposing
players .
This incident became a shocking incident for the entire company .
Rumors spread through word of mouth throughout the company that a re
presentative player had arrived or that a soccer prodigy had arrived . Th
at day, I was exempted from having to be on watch , and I was treated as
the most important person in the platoon .
The vicious squad leader also believed in my abilities in society and treat
ed me with respect .
“ Hey , I told you earlier . “Then I would have treated you well .” Whil
e doing this, I tried to do my best somehow . QR
