Better Than I Expected *Minor Spoilers*

I usually don't care for sports themed dramas/shows/movies because sports just don't interest me much. I was also worried I wouldn’t care for this because the romance of the two leads wasn't front row and center.

HOWEVER, I found I really loved watching both their journeys in their respective sport as well as the constant support the main leads showed for each other. It was sort of intimate the way they understood the other person's struggles in their similar aspirations.

The chemistry between the two leads is really good. They manage to not only have that romantic factor but also each others best support. Once the main couple got together they stayed strong and healthy. They do kiss (for those looking for kisses) but I found their hugs to be something special. It felt like they really cared for each other. Almost as though those hugs washed away the stress and pressure of what their going through even if just for a few minutes. They're each other's rock.

I really appreciated that the misunderstandings aren't dragged out from episode to episode. They sort of serve their purpose pushing the story forward without making the viewer grit their teeth for 3+ episodes while the misunderstanding hangs in the air.

Honestly, it was just a really solid drama throughout with maybe 1 really laggy episode. This is not a wild and crazy drama. It's mostly calm (except for the coach's yelling) and well paced. You're not going to find a ton of melodramatics here but I feel that the sports side of the story provides a fair amount of excitement for viewers as well as the adorable moments between these 2 leads.

Would Recommend.
