[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] In 'Stove League,' as Kwon Kyung-min (played by Oh Jung-se) announced the disbandment of the Dreams, Baek Seung-soo (played by Namgoong Min) revealed his intention to sell the team.


In episode 15 of SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'Stove League,' which aired on the afternoon of the 8th, Baek Seung-soo met Kwon Kyung-min again after hearing about Kang Doo-gi's (played by Ha Do-kwon) trade to the Titans. Kwon Kyung-min and Baek Seung-soo engaged in a battle of wills, each showing determination not to back down even a step.


Kang Doo-gi, who was leaving the Dreams, promised Baek Seung-soo that he would only curse him three times, but said he was leaving without keeping that promise. Baek Seung-soo apologized, saying it was he who failed to keep it. In response, Kang Doo-gi comforted him, saying, "I know it wasn't the director's intention." He then gave his final farewell, saying, "Thank you for letting us dream, even if only for a short while."


Lee Se-young (played by Park Eun-bin), who questioned Kwon Kyung-min's recent trade decision, persuaded Baek Seung-soo not to blame himself but to devise a plan for the other players. Meanwhile, upon hearing the news of Kang Doo-gi's trade, Dreams fans visited the club to launch a campaign demanding Baek Seung-soo's resignation, while the players, led by Im Dong-gyu (played by Jo Han-sun), declared a training boycott.

In response, Baek Seung-soo persuaded Kwon Kyung-min's special aide, Jang Woo-seok (played by Kim Ki-moo), and succeeded in obtaining a side contract. He then held a press conference to reveal the side contract and demanded the complete nullification of the trade, turning public opinion around.


Following Baek Seung-soo's press conference, the Titans proposed to nullify the trade, and Kang Doo-gi returned to the Dreams. However, during this time, the Dreams' parent company, Jaesong Group, signed a business agreement with Gangseong Group, putting the Dreams at risk of disbandment.



Ultimately, Kwon Kyung-min declared the disbandment of the Dreams, and Baek Seung-soo directly approached the chairman of Jaesong Group to propose selling the Dreams, signaling a direct confrontation with Kwon Kyung-min.
