So lovely!
I loved this show! I'm a huge fan of lots of the girls on it so that was definitely a bonus. I just kept thinking that had a show of this kind been produced in my country (the UK) there would have been such a large focus on creating conflict between the girls, because UK TV producers seem to be under the impression that audiences aren't interested in watching people get along well. This show proves them wrong! It was so nice to see these young women genuinely find comfort through new friendships and their new shared passion for running. I found this show to be heartwarming, motivational, and reflective. So so lovely!Was this review helpful to you?

There were some good parts, and I liked a lot of the characters, but honestly for a gay show it was really quite homophobic lol, especially the finale. The instance on using female/male gendered terms for mlm couples, Chon being 'godfather' to Ton's child, Ton being 'straight except for Chon', the very bizarre redemption arc for Ton's dad where he said it was okay for Ton and Chon to be together as long as Ton had a child, and everyone suddenly forgiving him and doing exactly what he wanted despite his aggressive homophobia through out. The storyline had potential. Chon is a really likeable character, his friendship with Pang is very sweet and Ai, Ni and Miriam worked well as side characters but besides that the rest just really fell through.
