A mix of hilarious, tongue-in-cheek comedy, well-crafted intrigue, and bittersweet romance that delves into the inner workings of international espionage and police work.
The first drama adaptation of wildly popular comic book series Alien Baseball Team, Strike Love is an upbeat, well-acted story of two men who collide over sports and love. One is the new star pitcher of a ragtag team of baseball underdogs, and the other is the lead pitcher of a major team. When their teams go head to head, they collide over the affections of a childhood friend. Yoon Tae-young, popularized through is role in 2007's The Legend, heads this enjoyable comedy.
Hye Sung, the son of an alcoholic father who eventually abandons him, has a hard childhood. The one bright spot in his life is Eon Ji, a new girl at school who befriends him, convinces him to abandon his delinquent ways, and introduces him to baseball. Ma Dong Tak, Hye Sung's friend and already spoken of as a genius pitcher, also falls for Eon Ji. When her family unexpectedly moves, Hye Sung loses touch with her, and the only thing she leaves behind is a glove, a baseball, and a note for Hye Sung, telling him to become a great baseball player. Years later, Hye Sung arrives in Seoul for major-league tryouts, planning to search for Eon-ji in the process. Dong Tak, meanwhile, who has just been signed to a major team, has been dating Eon Ji for a while and plans to marry her.
Keeping a good balance between its romantic and sports aspects, Strike Love is propelled by solid story-telling and excellent chemistry between leads Yoon Tae Young and Kim Min Jung (see her also in New Heart on DramaFever!).

i started watching this drama, but i couldn't find the complete series with subs! so thank you for uploading here! although i can't watch any of it right now, i'll definitely be coming back to check it out!! :DDD it's such a catchy story and cute, that i thought it'd b more popular in korea, but i guess not that many people like sports love dramas. so sad...
I liked this series, it had a good story going, then in the end everything is left unresolved. It feels like this series ended a few episodes too early.
I was totally and completely captured by this drama within the first few minutes. However, the audiences in Korean didn't quite feel the same and the drama was cut to 16 episodes. While I loved this drama, I feel short changed. The last episode felt like it was the pivotal climax in the series, but one that didn't exactly have an ending. While the last scene made me smile, overall I feel cheated and disappointed. I'd like to give this drama 4 or 5 stars, but since I feel like I haven't completed it yet, 3 it is. What a shame. :(
I love this drama.. Liked the lead actors! But..the ending!!! Is Dramafever going to show the last 4 episodes? Please,please, please!!!
I began watching this show when it first aired but wasn't able to continue on the site I was using. I'm really excited to be able to finish it on Dramafever!
