OK, I have to say it: this is my favourite BL serie. Like, really really. I’ve read and watch yaoi and BL stories and fanfictions. One of the common things I’ve seen is one leading male and the other being lead. It’s like these stories are trying to reproduce the traditional schema with one male and one female: the male as an active figure and the female as the passive figure.

In this story, we follow two couples. I will talk about the main one. Both of them have different facets in their personnality, not only one trait. Both of them exist without the other one, have the life without the other one. Both of them are leading each other, are influencing each other. They take care and help each other. They are on the same level, not one stronger than the other but equals.

This is the story of two men who meet each other, who discover each other and fall in love. We follow them as they train and try to win their volleyball match. We follow Qiu Zi Xua as he has to give up his hope to play again because of his injury. We follow as Xia Yu Hao he tries to be the best player in order to carry the dream of the one he loves.

It’s not only about two men saying they love each other. It’s the story about being afraid of their feelings or being confident about them, about following their dream. When I saw them happy, hugging and kissing each other, I was happy too, smiling as they smile to each other. Their chemistry was so real, their love so pure and passionate.

I didn’t see one man being the dominant one and the other being dominated. I’ve seen two equals men finding love.
