Ho-ch'ang feels burdened by the legacy of his scholar father, in early 20th century Korea. When his brother leaves to join the resistance against Japan, Ho-ch'ang is torn between family duties and the newly arrived sport of baseball. A member of the first Korean baseball team, he is part of a growing sensation that gives the Korean people a sense of pride and hope in a time of crisis.
