Lead cast: Yoon Kye-sang, Im Se-mi, Kim Yo-han

Latest Nielsen rating: 4.4 per cent

The latest sports K-drama ventures into the world of a game not typically associated with South Korea: rugby.

The sport may be unfamiliar to most local viewers but The Winning Tryโ€™s story is almost certainly not โ€“ a celebrated sportsman falls from grace and begins coaching a school team with a disastrous track record.

Yoon Kye-sang (The Kidnapping Day) plays the shaggy Joo Ga-ram, once the star player of the Korean national rugby squad. He led his team to victory at the Asian Cup only to be disgraced by doping charges in the aftermath.
