My Lovely Boxer (Season 1)

"My Lovely Boxer" (2023) — watch online on iFILM — is a Korean drama about a retired boxing champion and the agent who won't let her stay retired. Kwon-sook (Kim So-hye) had the titles, the talent, and then she was gone. Directed by Choi Sang-yeol and Hong Eun-mi.

Sports agent Tae-young (Lee San-yeop) tracks her down years later. His pitch is simple: come back to the ring, because his career depends on her wins. Kwon-sook is not convinced. The series builds from there, mixing the push-pull of their working arrangement with the seedier side of professional boxing — a world where match-fixing sits just below the surface of every legitimate bout. What the show does well is resist the easy arc: her return isn't inevitable, and her reasons for leaving are taken seriously rather than treated as an obstacle to clear.
