The story reminds me of "The King's Avatar". The male lead in Go Go Squid, Han Shangyan, a.k.a Gun, is also a computer genius and the best player in CTF. The only difference is there is more romance in this drama than in King's Avatar. Although the story revolves around Han Shangyan and Tong Nian, I still love the fact that it highlights their passion for reaching their dreams. I also love how it emphasizes friendship and loyalty.
As for the characters, I really love Han Shangyan and the K&K members. I love how Li Xian is able to portray the cold but soft-hearted Han Shangyan. I've become a big fan of Li Xian because of this drama. He's so handsome even in his frowning face.
I think both Li Xian and Yang Zi portrayed their characters well, especially when the scene involves the both of them. They really have good chemistry. I also love the K&K members, especially Grunt. It doesn't show but Wen Yifan who plays Grunt is actually much older than Li Xian. But in Go Go Squid, he jives really well with the other K&K members like they're all in the same age.
Their music gets a 9.5/10 from me. I could have given a 10 but I did not like some of them, although their OSTs fit every scene. My favorite is Glory by Lara.
This drama is definitely a recommend especially to those who love The King's Avatar.
