Road to success starts with YOU.
From the start of the series I found myself already captivated and curious about this show and how it would progress. I have to say that the star of the show beyond Esther Yu or Chen Jing Ke would have to be the young actors who were all part of the soccer team.
Normally I am one of those people who prefer to watch shows for the romance, however the romance in this show was subtle and mature which I found quite appropriate! The young actors who played the students/soccer players have very promising futures in the industry, I was very moved by their acting and at how they portrayed athletes who were doubted, looked down on and abandoned by everyone until Lin Wanxing and Wang Fa came along. Together Ms. Lin and Coach Wang Fa gave them hope and more reasons to continue playing! Giving this team another chance to not only prove to the community who doubt them but to each other that they are worth it!
I always give credit when credit is due, so this is for Esther.
Once again, Esther always brings out the best in her character. From the moments of vulnerability and tears, to the cheekiness and witty behavior around the characters, she brings Lin Wanxing to life. I enjoyed watching Ms. Lin's journey, she is brave, kind, compassionate, and a true motivator! She is someone who is relatable and that's what I love about this character portrayed by Esther. I felt the emotions she felt, and I cried when cried, but when it was time to celebrate, and rejoice for victories, I was cheering her on. From showing up in the first episode with so much uncertainty to the end, I was happy to have followed along her journey, well done Ms. Lin!
Now onto, Coach Wang Fa who is played by the actor Chen Jing Ke, this is my very first show with him in it. He played the serious but gentle ML perfectly. Curious but yet so cautious, even though he kept a mystery around him, you can tell Chen Jing Ke also brought his character to life as Wang Fa. His eyes truly did the heavy lifting because this man can yearn. The way he would look at Lin Wanxing said so much more than his mouth did, yet he could only support and be by her side throughout the show -- I won't say much more cause you have to watch and it's worth it in the end lol.
I'll wrap this up and just say that it is worth a watch if you want something light, charming, but also touches on some heavy subjects but wraps them up neatly.
As my title says, the road to success starts with you, through the adversity that each character went through -- they never backed down even when they were at their lowest. So don't give up, keep on going!
Thank you to the cast and production team for this, I enjoyed chasing this drama every morning as my routine and will miss this show.
