This show checked all the boxes for me. Casting was a hit, OST got stuck in my head, and the story was refreshing and cute. I understand people not giving this a full 10 stars because it was short and I feel there was some room for more development, but for me they nailed it.

I really loved the development of the relationship between Jinwon and Sangha. It felt really natural to me to see Jinwon slowly realize that what he was feeling for Sangha was love after getting to know him and realizing that Sangha had been silently supporting him for so long. But then the scene at the end where he says that he didn’t understand why Sangha was so wrapped up in his life and that’s why he had trouble accepting his feelings?? That felt SO authentic for me. I think that in a relationship between adults it’s so important for both parties to have their own dreams and aspirations. For me that’s what really differs between relationships between kids/teenagers and relationships between adults, they have to find that middle ground where they love each other and want to be together while still having their own lives. It’s not healthy to live only for the happiness/success of your partner, and I feel that this show really handled that so well.

That being said, I, too, wish this was longer! I’d love to see some content of Jinwon and Sangha training together as rivals and then racing together but against each other. I also wish that there had been a little more drama after the race with Jinwon finding out about the moneylender guy basically forcing Sangha to run. I’d have liked to see him get real defensive when finding out that they basically snatched Sangha and beat him up a little. I feel like that was a bit of a missed opportunity, which is why I gave the story 9 stars instead of 10.
