A Good Balance of Sport and Romance in this Drama
It's been a while since I've watched a sports-related drama and you know what? This drama did a great job on showcasing the speed skating and the figure skating, though if I'm being honest, it did feel like speed skating was shown a bit more compared to figure skating but overall, I'm still satisfied. There was a very good balance on showcasing the sport and the romance. Sometimes the writers tend to overshadow one over the other, but this writer did a great job with each.
Story: The story was great overall. It showed the journey of the FL's character of wanting to become a professional speed skater and the ML"s character of his figure skating journey. It showed the hardships and struggles each encounter along the way. Any internal problems the main characters and side characters were shown and resolved. Nothing left open ended. The only reason, this is a 4.5/5 stars for story is I didn't really like the idea of a love contract for this drama. I just didn't see the point of this like your typical love contract drama (usually business related). The reasoning wasn't good enough for me to have this concept in this drama.
Acting/Cast: The main characters are great. I don't remember the last time I laughed this much from the leads. From being annoyed with each other, bothering each other, being sad, funny, and happy, both the leads did a great job portraying their character. The best friends as the side characters were my favorite. They also helped bring enjoyment to this drama with their dorkiness.
Music is decent. The intro and ending song sounds nice but not enough for me to listen through at the start and end of each episode.
Other things to note:
- Romance wise, there are 2 couples: The main couple of course and the secondary couple (the best friend of the ML & FL). There is a love triangle for the main couple (FL & another girl loves ML) but no break up with them, no love triangle for secondary couple but break up actually occurs.
- A happy and satisfying ending though I still wanted more for the last episode.
- You'll have a good laugh from this one
Overall, this is another one I'm gonna add to my favorites. Had a great time watching this one.
