'Pilsseung Wonder Dogs' stands at a crossroads of survival against pro teams.
In episode 8 of the MBC variety program The Wonder Coach, which airs the night of the 16th, coach Kim Yeon-kyung personally leads 'Pilsseung Wonder Dogs' in an uncompromising match against the 2024-2025 V League runner-up Jung Kwan Jang (hereafter Jung Kwan Jang).
That day, 'Pilsseung Wonder Dogs' will face the pro team Jung Kwan Jang again following last week, staging a match of pride. Jung Kwan Jang drew more attention as it is captain Pyo Seung-ju's last pro team and the team manager Seung-gwan's 20-year favorite team.
Meanwhile, in the main match, the Wonder Dogs' secret weapon, the Mongolian duo Inkushi and Tamira, are expected to perform spectacularly and capture viewers' attention. Jung Kwan Jang coach Go Hee-jin appears flustered by unexpected variables and gradually loses composure, adding to the tension.
Another key viewing point is what kind of performance Pyo Seung-ju will show against her former team, Jung Kwan Jang. After the match, Pyo Seung-ju and coach Go Hee-jin finally met. What kind of conversation took place between the two, and whether 'Pilsseung Wonder Dogs', currently riding a momentum at 3 wins and 2 losses, can pull off an upset in this match to secure the team's survival, is drawing interest.
Known for fierce competitiveness, coach Kim Yeon-kyung reportedly unleashed what sounded like an exploding scolding to players after the match, asking, "What am I supposed to do?" Viewers are focused on the broadcast to see what lies behind that and whether coach Kim Yeon-kyung's tactics and leadership can make the 'underdog revolt' a reality.
Episode 8 of the MBC variety program The Wonder Coach, which captures the drama-like growth of 'Pilsseung Wonder Dogs' at every moment, will air 40 minutes later than usual at 9:50 p.m. Sunday the 16th, and the airtime may change depending on the 2025 K-Baseball Series broadcast.
