Hudi is a child that needs to lose weight, according to his doctors. His parents want him to lose weight so they want him to sign up for multiple sports. The first sport he joined was baseball and he ended up getting injured. Then he signed up for soccer, which also didn't go well. He also did swimming, tennis, and football, but none of it went well. He wanted to pursue his dream, which is comedy.
I liked that Hudi was very resilient. Even though one sport didn't work out for him he was willing to try another one. I also love that he is very passionate about what he really wants to do.
