Acting : Pretty good, I did not notice any fails. All the characters were good, stuborn and fresh.

Story : The story line is pretty basic. No new side. Competition between 2 guys, on sport and with the woman they like. Sometimes it's kinda boring but it was not. Everything was softly realised so I couldn't get boring of a characters. We can NOTICE other stories in addition of competition, I mean other relationships/ Link such as :

- The guys
-the guys with their parents (father for one and grandpa for another)
-The guys with the girl they like
-The girls
-The girls with the guy they like

Lets talk about the concept : Yuri on ice , sport, olympic games
The timing was perfect for the drama, we all are on it. With a  little touch of fun, very fresh and warm

Lets talk about Camera.
They way that they film the guys racing on ice was so interesting. I was on my bed while watching it, but I feel like flying, I feel so light. I was totally  IMMERSED.

The drama was maybe short, but it was perfect like that, too many eps would waste the drama, make it boring and deja vu.

Even the story was not that original, it was very interesting and fun to watch it ~

Great miniseries

The story might not be new with two main leads competing in sports but that's absolutely okay because the drama is entertaining. I laughed a lot in the first episode, the humor was exactly my cup of tea.

For those looking for bromance, well, I see why it's tagged as such because there are scenes of three boys sleeping in one room and accidentally end up cuddling but calling it a bromance is misinterpreting. This drama has no bromance like you see in Goblin or other dramas. It's more like a friendship and sharing the same passion, short track speed skating. That's not a minus though.

The story is perfectly paced in the four episodes. I was a bit sad when it was over, in length it's more like a movie than a drama.
With a bit more focus and backstory on side characters and more scenes of their competitions and trainings it could totally be a longer drama.

The characters are well written and likeable. We even get bits of character development which I don't take for granted in a short drama with only four episodes, even though the shortness makes this development seem a bit abrupt.

In my opinion the cast did a great job. I didn't see any flaws or bad acting.

As for the music, the main theme got into my ears rather fast because the tune is catchy. So definitely another plus.

Would rewatch this drama anytime when I'm in need of something entertaining and light.
Overall a really good watch that I wholeheartedly recommend to check out.
