Plot:The true story of Kim Deuk-Ku, a young impoverished boy who moved out of his small village and into the city to train as a boxer. As he gets older, his talent grows as well, until he finds himself in America fighting the world's best as a pro.
Overview:Kim was born in a poor family. After leaving home at the age of fourteen, he wanted to become a professional boxer. After a few trial runs, he is put in the ring. Kim is soon reborn as an incredible fighting machine. After numerous trials and tribulations, he wins the Asia-Pacific Championship and gets engaged to Lee Kyung-Mi. Kim promises to make Lee the wife of a world champion and enjoys the best moment of his life.

Meanwhile, the world boxing champion, Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini, picks Kim as his opponent for the second match. On November 14th, 1982 Kim finally enters the ring against Mancini. While most of the best are on an easy victory for Mancini, Kim proves them wrong. Kim's physical prowess, along with his steely determination, surprises everyone--including his opponent, Mancini! But in the 14th round, Kim collapses and goes into a coma...
