I was so excited to watch this drama but half way through I felt like I was trying to convince myself to still really like it. Drama had so much potential… it just never seemed to go beyond “just okay”. Instead of focusing on the main leads, the storyline was everywhere… touching on each person and their relationships but never going deep enough. I liked ML but his trauma was resolved so late, he didn’t seem to have much character growth. Although romance wasn’t suppose to be a big part of this drama, I felt like there should have been more since drama brought it up and spent initial episodes trying to develop something. It was a bummer because nothing felt completely satisfying and there was one too many motivational speeches and monologues which made me want to hit the fast forward button.

Despite all that, this really wasn’t a bad drama….the strong brotherhood, tug of war as a sport, and actors and actresses were likeable (at least most of them), I never quite figured out who was the FL…maybe there wasn’t really one. The portrayal of coaches was a little much but I’ve seen my share of crazy coaches too. I give writers props for writing the coaches in that way… although it’s wrong, I have a feeling that’s what a lot athletes face on the daily.

Overall, It was a cute watch but my expectations were probably just too high. I can’t bring myself to rate it less than an 8!!
