Park Tae Joon Saw How Yunis Treat Park Tae Yang
Sensing that the team was ignoring Tae Yang's presence, he observed why the Yunis team was acting this way toward the female athlete.
At one point, he was the only one who told Park Tae Yang about the prank. They told her they would have a marathon, but no one came.
Instead, she runs for miles and does whatever the team wants her to do. It seems like she's doing all this and letting her teammate look down on her because of the controversy.
Park Tae Joon got honest with her that she is more than that and doesn't need to take all the blame. The male athlete also confessed that he knew about the bribing scandal but told her that he doesn't believe that she had done it.

In the latter part of Love All Play Episode 2, Park Tae Joon revealed why he initially did not agree to be her partner.
This is because he believes that Tae yang deserved a better and more skilled partner than him; however, she had her reasons for choosing Tae Joon.
The female athlete admitted that she was impressed by how skilled Tae Joon is, from his movement to his speed; however, he is downplaying his capabilities and wants to play badminton just for the money.
Love All Play Episode 2 revealed that Tae Joon wanted to get away from the shadow of his older sister, who seems to be a better athlete than him because of the recognitions and awards that she has been receiving.
Once again, Park Tae Yang made him realize that he is better in his own ways, and that is through badminton.
