We want Season 2 .... with all the same casts

This is the first time that I fell in love with a C drama. I love all the casts, the crew, the CP feels, the OST and the set... Everything is AAA+ for me... When I saw one of the fan vids, I just know that I wasn't gonna spend any more minute without searching and watching this drama... and until I finished it, I knew I wouldn't ever regret watching it and even share it to my friends who also appreciates it..

This comes the part where I get confused about the controversies that I heard about it being boycott and not appreciated by their fellows. At first, it didn't sound right for me like what could be wrong? How can they even call this awkward acting, plagiarized, insulting to E sports gamers and all.. to the point that they will harass the actors and cut the budget for marketing..

Well here's my take... First, I believe that this is a drama... Drama, specifically means a drama.. not documentary or not true to life based story at all... Drama has a lot of extensions where it can be fanfic, fantasy, Sci fi, slice of life, adventure, sports and etc.. This again isn't documentary, where you will need to base the story in accordance to what a specific person or events are literally taking place and experiencing in real life... I love games, specifically e games, but doesn't mean that I love e sports and all that I will require an e sports drama to be exactly how it is... again, this is drama, and it can contain a lot of different genre where it can be the drama's main focus...

For a more clearer view to this, let's just say that a drama will base the story from historical views where they will add fantasy, romance or even comedy... .Will they say that using a name of historical figure and adding romance or comedy into it, means that they are plagiarizing and insulting the history? (Let's be honest but I have watched a lot of dramas like this) And I think we should think twice about it and look at the brighter side of how people learn more about the history while being entertained and appreciating it... And I think E sports is not much sacred than the history to be so much of a delicate topic as what they are making it seem to be...No offense..

On the contrary, I want to compliment the drama for showing more of how an e sports gamer can dream of what they really want, that e sports is not just a game, but can also be a profession. They also depicted how a team can work and dream together through hard work, adaptations and strategies. It also became an eye opener to lots of people who doesn't know about more the e sports industry and starts appreciating it. To a mother, girlfriend or bypasser who doesn't know how to play a game can be interested with this drama was one big step for introducing the e sports to the world.... Btw, it's just because that I learned that a lot of people who watched this became interested on the game and installed OPL in their devices...

Lastly, all the casts and crews who work hard to make this drama possible for 8 months isn't a joke.. All the hard work should be appreciated greatly which brings joy to the fans who appreciates it should be recognized and awarded nicely.. Not with bad words but with appreciation to the people who can bring happiness amidst this pandemic... Learn to respect others, specially when they didn't do anything bad towards you directly.. let's just pray for a Season 2 for this :)
