dropped //:

I dropped this at episode 20, I completely lost all motivation to continue it. the chemistry was just not there for me, yes the female lead was strong willed but to me she got totally bland once they began dating, pacing felt off. I won’t lie the part that had me most interested was whether or not his uncle would survive and what was the deal with the kid his uncle took in, those few episodes were peak. The romance was completely lacking, even when they were dating it felt like I was watching best friends rather than a couple, hardly any romance scenes at all except hugs here and there to remind us “hey, they’re dating”. once the college years hit everything just got so boring and once I feel like I’m forcing myself to watch new episodes that’s when I know it’s time to drop.

I recommend it

I really enjoyed this story and all the characters, there wasn’t a character in this story that I didn’t like, from the main leads to their friends and even the coaches, even the villains played their parts well. I am usually iffy about longer dramas (they tend to get boring after the 20 episode mark) but this one was so entertaining all the way through! maybe an unpopular opinion (I love me some angst what can I say) but I actually enjoyed the breakup plot, it added a layer of drama that would have made the latter half of the show less enjoyable had it not happened. the main couple came back stronger than ever after the breakup and that’s what matters. I really love the sports aspect of this drama, despite being in a relationship the main leads never gave up on their dreams. the storyline with the second lead and his anxiety was also well written, definitely a topic that I wish was more normalized in Asian dramas. overall I enjoyed it, I would recommend! first 30 or episodes are a 10/10 and overall the show is a 9.5/10 as there were some slow parts in the last 10 episodes.

fav youth cdrama of all time

This drama is absolute perfection. From the first episode I was HOOKED, the storyline and pacing are amazing. Male lead is a total golden retriever energy, zero coldness to the female lead. I love that they went from somewhat enemies, to friends, to lovers. this is slow burn done right, throughout their high school years despite them not dating I still felt all the fluff and butterflies I’d feel watching them as a couple. The buildup to their relationship after they went to college is truly incredible, totally worth waiting 19 episodes for them to become a couple! I could gush about this drama forever bc it’s just so good and I’ve yet to find another drama to compare, I’ve actually dropped a few recently and just rewatched our secret instead.
