This drama is so cute!! It reminds me of Love O2O in a way, because (though it is very different) it's sweet in a similar way and Tang Yi Bai's teammates are fun and supportive (there's a lot of bromance going on there). Tang Yi Bai and Yun Dou are very sweet, individually and together, and there are a lot of good messages about determination and working to achieve your dreams in the drama. This drama manages to stay interesting until the end, without so many of the cliche drama twists. It's very straightforward and heartwarming.

The people who really steal the show are Qi Ruifeng, Xiang Yang Yang, and Tang Yi Bai's mom. All of them were fantastic in every scene they were in. I ended up very attached to Qi Ruifeng and Xiang Yang Yang and their story line (I adore them and could rewatch their scenes pretty much forever).

The acting and cast were PHENOMENAL and I really can't wait to see all of these actors in so many more things. It does not hurt that there are a number of very attractive people throughout. Even the characters who only show up for a few episodes, like Lin Hao Yang, were amazing.

Admittedly, I didn't care as much for every story line, while most of the story was excellent and very well done, I found myself really not caring as much about the second male lead's whole deal, and the second time I watched this drama I skipped through those parts, just focusing on the swimming focused story lines, but even so overall the story is extremely worth watching. Even as a youth/sports drama, I've never watched another drama quite like it.

Honestly, this drama is just so incredibly sweet and absolutely worth watching. I hope to encounter more like it, but until then I'll probably just keep coming back and rewatching the story lines I loved.
