I am afraid of fighting
I am afraid of being beaten and losing
But I am more afraid of surviving as a cripple
than dying while I am fighting!
I hear the wind howl
I hear the fear inside of me

You cannot avoid dealing with them when you' re the guard for a circus
They ' re extra trouble for a troupe
Iike ours, with lots of Koreans
Aren 't those ration tickets? They' re as good as money
Why don 't you use them instead of just collecting them?
We are planning to build a school for the Korean kids in this area
They shouldn ' t forget our language even though they've left Korea

Baedal, how are your parents?
Bumsoo!
Teach me how to be a fighter
Bumsoo wouldn ' t give up his will
Baedal must be very cold
You, poor thing!
Baedal!
Bumsoo!
Baedal, if you make a fist you can ' t grasp anything
not friends, not earth nor sky
But if you unclench your fist you can hold the whole world
Baedal, practice martial arts hard to protect yourself
Bumsoo, why are you saying that?
You understand what I mean?
Get him!
Follow him!
Get him!
Shoot!
Get him!
Little master, use your abilities to protect yourself and others
Live fairly, and protect
the things you care about
What ' s he doing?
I remember he said he would never teach the martial arts as they can be as deadly as poison
Well, he must be different from someone
Damn
What? How rude you are to an old lady like me!
Bastard!
BOOK OF FIVE RINGS BY MIYAMOTO MUSASHI
Justice without power is empty but power without justice is only violence
A warrior always keeps his sword sharp but he never draws it without a cause
Miyamoto Musashi the best swordsman ever will be a good teacher for you
Pachinko!
I ' m sorry
You stupid bastards!
Go away! You bastard!
What ' s happening?
Ahem, it's your fault Don 't be rude
Apologize now

Japan Karate Association
The bed-wetter of Ikebukuro!
That's what people call you these days
Is that why you begged for your life? To live like that?
You are shameless!
What made Miyamoto Musashi different from other warriors
as that he dreamed of being the best fighter in the world
The best, the strongest man in the world!
That is what you should dream of to be as strong as your name Baedal, 'the Korean people'
If you practice for a thousand days you' re still a beginner
But if you practice for ten thousand days you can become a master
This is kyokushin or ' pure truth '
The spirit of kyokushin means to do your best, until the last moment
Today, I ' m still walking aimlessly
Help our lady!
Please help!
Stop it!
Let's go! We shouldn 't have seen it
