While Lee Hong-gi may be one of my favorite actors, this wasn't enough to salvage the atrocity of this drama. I've watched the entire drama with a friend of mine and we regretted wasting our time doing so, but I did it so that I can give my thoughts on it so here it goes.

The story follows Asuza Shiratori, the daughter of the late president of ''Shiratori Girls Pro Wrestling'', a small female pro wrestling league. With the company being held back by bankruptcy and debts as well as her father passing away, they are struggling to keep it afloat. They also find out later on that the referee quits his job, needing a replacement referee. Asuza later finds a random stranger, who happens to be a huge star in Korea, and asks him to be a referee for a day. With that, they join together to keep the company alive by going against their competition, another rival pro wrestling company.

There is another story involving Lee Hong-gi's character trying to find his mother after finding out that she feels like a burden to her son with his busy work shift.

While the story may be unique in some way, it fails tremendously on captivating the audience's attention due to how boring it can get as it goes. The emotional moments feels so artificial and corny since there isn't any weight to what backs up the situation and we don't care much for many of the characters (we will get there in a minute). The whole theme of ''everyone is family'' has been done a bunch of times and I've seen dramas that pushes onto this subject a lot better while this one feels very forced and repetitive to the point it becomes uninteresting.

The acting in this drama is excruciatingly painful to watch and listen to from awkward pauses that derails the entire script and overreaction which often follows up after the pauses. It doesn't with the fact that the characters are very shallow and forgettable. There are those that have their own storyline, which for the most part feels shoehorned in for more tension as well being dull and boring, and those that don't have any which feels like they don't exist during the entirety of the drama. The closest thing to a more or less decent arc was with Himawari, which is passable at best. The biggest disappointment by far is Lee Hong-gi's character, Ji Ho. Many people have definitely watched this drama for the sole fact that he is included in this. Not gonna lie, that is the main reason why I did watch this, but even his character was really bad. It was like a mixed of his You're Beautiful role, which is completely washed up after Episode 1, and becomes this mentoring saving grace of the company where everything will be alright as long as he is there. This kills off any tension thrown at the characters since he is so perfect that it's hard to even care about the situation.

Music was forgettable for the most part. Hell, even as a fanatic of music in any given media, it's really difficult to say much about this area of the review. The only one I know is that Pokémon sounding one that plays during the halfway point of the episode. Overall, didn't really care for it.

I would not rewatch this drama for the sole fact that it's a waste of time and I've already known that it was bad by the second I've seen the first minute of Episode 1. I kept on going because I had nothing else to do and my friend was around to watch a drama with me. It was fun making fun of it, but definitely a lot of time wasted.

I recommend not watching this drama even if you're a fan of Lee Hong-gi. He doesn't save this drama at all. I recommend watching other series. Just skip this one.
