As advertised and fairly mediocre . . .

In this drama, at the 2/3 mark, the couple is not any closer together than where they started - just misunderstandings, and miscommunications abounding. Not a slow burn more I wanted to force the main couple into a room and lock the door until they hash it out.

The budget is low and as with all skating dramas it's very very hard to suspend your disbelief. The frequent cutaways to stunt doubles or filming 'tricks' on solid ground with the camera moving around them were decently done but not inspiring.

The one highlight was Wang An Yu as Shao Bei Sheng. For once, we have a joyful, lighthearted hero that can show up with emotional intensity and protectiveness instead of your typical ice cold statue that melts 2/3's through. I thought the storyline with his mother was a highlight and salvaged an otherwise unremarkable drama.
