Great for escapism
I WILL MARK WHERE SPOILERS START
This really is one of the finer escapism pieces I’ve watched this year. There’s no SLS frustrations. Main plot conflicts roughly last about 1-2 episodes. There’s plenty of crack. There’s plenty of swoon-worthy, butterfly feeling moments. It’s funny and fun. There’s Darren with his fringe up. Sebrina’s on her cross-dressing streak. It’s an entertaining piece to watch and just escape reality. It made me so happy while watching. I really suggest giving this a try and watching the first 3 episodes before thinking about dropping. The first episode is really rocky which episodes 2 and 3 fixes, chances are once you get past the rocky bits, you won’t be able to stop.
The OST has quite a few English tracks in the list. It's slow, mellow, and cutesy. Sometimes the English tracks can be distracting from the show, because it's not always fitting for the scene and the track's beat is much slower than the speed of the scenes.

Darren plays a mischievous rich boy (Wen Bing) who loves playing hockey. He meets our female lead Sebrina (Sang Tian) while she’s dressed as a guy. Eventually she ends up at the same school as him, but she has to stay dressed as a guy to join the men’s hockey course/team because she got her enrollment for the women’s figure skating team revoked. He literally figures out that she’s a girl by the 3rd episode and all the shenanigans begin. He’s got plenty of annoying but loveable rascal-type scenes, where you will find yourself screaming about how annoying he was.
He has a weird form of face amnesia where faces are hard to recognize and the surroundings are also hard to see (but apparently his perception is top notch -- again no logic). If you need some explanation or something more tangible, just pretend he is extremely nearsighted and refuses to wear correcting glasses or contact lenses in order to keep his cool guy looks.
I have a lot of love for the side couple Cheng Min Jun and Coach Ma. Their relationship was really cute and entertaining. Coach Ma is one of those stronger female characters, she was in the hockey team when she was younger, so she was very much a tomboy and her love life was so sad that all the students knew. Cheng Min Jun is very cheap and mostly broke, he originally went after Coach Xue, but that fell out (I enjoyed their friendship and bonding over getting dumped as well). Coach Ma and Cheng Min Jun end up together and it’s announced that they got engaged at the very end.
Meng Na and Sang Zhan was a hit or miss for me. I mostly 2x-d Meng Na’s solo+ scenes because it was very much filter information you don’t need. I enjoyed this couple because every time they are together Meng Na is under some type of magical gravity, where she falls and lands in his arms or some other cutie’s arms (I want magical gravity).
There is no SLS, our second male lead was not potent at all. Wei Lian is very cute and I adore him but his SML script was not there to make us ship him and Sang Tian.
This is high in my rewatch pile, I will most likely rewatch this before or after my exams to relax and break the stress.
