7.0/10 - Very good.

Oh, the writers do have the guts. Right away the Esport world is blowing up with the news that the new member of ZGDX is a woman! Both sides are shown as the news breaks. Excitement over a woman finally getting to go pro, the jealousy of female fans, hate of the males, and the shock of other teams. Well done.

Then the most shocking part. Tong Yao shows up to the compound, or whatever it's called where the team stays, and knocks rings the bell. Male Lead Cheng looks right past her as he grabs what he thinks is Chubby's food delivery. In fact, I'm not sure if Cheng even looks at her. The writers handle it so well as Tong Yao rights a funny tweet about what happens. Gently giving her new team mates a gentle Notice. Not to mention earning their respect when she's finally let in and she refuses to take down her post unless Cheng apologizes. Of course he doesn't.

Chubby is clearly a friend from there on and has already taken more interest and care into welcoming Tong Yao as he's decorated her room. In the male straight guy aesthetic. As her room is pink and pink and well . . . a stereotype of what guys think women want. It's actually addressed again later as Chubby has decorated her gaming area.

Ming, whom Togn Yao is replacing, is a coach and I like seeing the whole group interact and Tong Yao trying to figure out where she fits. From waking up on time, talking with the house cleaner who assumes she's a fangirl staying over *wink*, and to seeing the guys forget that a woman is in the house. Chubby coming out in Superman boxers, and even Cheng coming out in his black robe. I am so happy at how nuanced and real Cheng feels. He's human. Stealthy embarrassed about what happened, but handling it cool like.

The family touches are nice as well. We get a peek at Cheng's and see how Tong Yao's parents are. Her dad supportive and her mom still a spitball of anger. Their fighting and all that. Also, can I address the cat. I was nervous Biscuit was gonna be left behind, but Biscuit gets to come along! Of course Cheng has "sons" little pet fishes. Ha-ha. It's so nice to see a cat in a drama. It's always dogs.

Falling into Your Smile is coming along nicely!
