Try: We Become Miracles (2025)

"Tackles, Tears & Try-Hards: The Winning Try Scores Big!" ?✨

🎬 What makes “The Winning Try” a winning ride so far
The ultimate underdog sports story, built around rugby—a bold first for a K‑drama. Coach Joo Ga‑ram (Yoon Kye‑sang) steps in to save Hanyang High's perpetually losing (25‑loss season, anyone?) rugby team from getting disbanded
Perfectly cast lead chemistry: Yoon Kye‑sang’s quick‑witted, eccentric coach full of one‑liners and awkward charm meets Kim Yo‑han’s stern, perfectionist team captain who despises being coached by his disgraced hero—sparks fly in the best way
Second‑chance vibes for days: Joo Ga‑ram’s disgraced past—once MVP of Korean rugby now ruined by a doping scandal—fuels his redemption arc as he rebuilds not just the team, but his own purpose?

🎭 Highlights of premier emotions and standout moments
Episode 1 immediately hooks with high‑stakes drama, sports action, and emotional layers that make you care—about everyone. You’ll feel like you know them in an hour. Writer Im Jin‑ah’s story hits hard while keeping the levity
Coach vs. Faculty showdown: Joo Ga‑ram clashes with cunning school admin (enter Vice Principal Seong Jong‑man played by Kim Min‑sang), who’d rather alphabet‑ize budget cuts than value rugby sweat and dreams
Throwing a rugby pass into a pig-head cake during a serious school ritual? Iconic. It’s exactly the kind of off‑beat humor that says “don’t expect predictability”

💬 Why I’m totally hooked (so should you)
Coach Ga‑ram is a riot: Every scene he’s in is a lesson in deadpan delivery, expressive faces, and bizarre motivational tactics. Yoon Kye‑sang returns to SBS after 18 years—and he’s back with a bang
Team vibes! The ragtag rugby crew includes a wide ensemble of young actors who bring energy and authenticity. Their early training scenes hype the athletic intensity already
Heart over hype: No flashy celebrity match‑ups—just flawed humans, family drama, rivalry, and that steaming hot quest to win the National Sports Festival and save the team (and reputations)

Final thoughts: what to expect next
If Episode 1 is any indication, this show is serving up laughs, heart, and the thrill of second chances—all in a sweaty jersey. Expect training montages, intense school politics, clashing personalities, and heartfelt growth. Coach Ga‑ram is running head‑first into the beliefs, souls, and stubbornness of his students—and it’s a treat watching them finally learn to tackle life as a team.

A try is better than a loss and certainly close to a win.

"The Winning Try" is an inspirational sports drama that scores big on heart and grit. The story follows a former rugby player, once shamed by a doping scandal, who finds redemption as a high school coach for a struggling team. The film masterfully balances the highs and lows of the game, weaving together themes of growth, friendship, and family.

The narrative is both direct and surprisingly complex, keeping viewers engaged with its relatable characters and compelling plot. While the team faces off-field challenges from antagonists with selfish motives, the film never loses its inspirational core. The lighthearted moments of comedy provide a perfect counterpoint to the heavier themes, making the journey all the more fulfilling.

From the veteran actors to the rising stars, the cast delivers outstanding performances.

Before you ask, yes there is a bit of romance, it's not direct but happens on the sidelines between the coach and his ex girlfriend and between the captain of the rugby team and the captain of the shooting team...it's subtle.

"The Winning Try" is a must-watch for rugby fans and anyone who loves a good underdog story. It's a winning combination of sports drama, character development, and heartwarming moments that will leave you cheering.
