Its fun light show about growing up and learning life,living through unexpected events, dealing with self worth, and trusting yourself and others.
Cast is amazing and with friends like these in real life you would be set for life.

Music was spot on. The chemistry great and the story had enough variety that it just never got boring

A bit childish slowburn feel-good romance
I can see why this is beloved by many people. If it were one of my first K-dramas, it would've been a feel-good one for me too.I really liked the male lead, he was the perfect boyfriend! The female lead was goofy and fun, albeit immature. I didn't like how the whole triangle was done though. I felt ML and FL had enough going on themselves in their personal lives, I really don't know why the second leads and triangles were necessary. Speaking of, I honestly got a Second lead syndrome, but for female lol. I felt sorry for her; in another story, she could've easily been the MC. There was so much heartbreak between the ML and her and so much potential for a second-chance romance. She felt out of place here! I don't know what they were trying to do with all the flashbacks between them, if not make us feel sad and nostalgic for them together.
Not to mention on the other side, the FL had a thing for ML's brother for 10 episodes before anything turned around. I thought the focus should've been on ML and FL more, not on other characters.
It's a solid 7/10 for me.

Not as good as others make it seem
I only started liking the show when the main leads finally got together. I did. Like it was sometimes relatable too. Other than that the show was kinda cringe and boring at times that I even skipped some parts of the show. I don’t think it needed all 16 eps cuz there was times it felt it was dragging on. I wish there was more scenes of the other couples in the show too and not just the main couple. I wished there was more emotions in this show too. I feel like if I watched this show when it came out I would have liked it then but not now.Questa recensione ti è stata utile?
This drama in one word: REFRESHING.
It's just great if you want something light, simple, fluffy(but not cringy) and heartwarming after all those heavy business politics or chain-deaths of characters in one episode kind of things.
To be honest, the first couple of episodes I expected this to be one of those same old typical romantic comedies but rest assured, you get a lot more out of it than the romance. You have the stereotypical characters that make up a typical kdrama (like the ex girlfriend, bully etc) but at the same time they all deviate from their stereotypes into something more complex. (At least they didn't make me want to rip my hair out unlike other ones where they should belong in a daycare center so ppl can supervise their immature behaviour.)
All the characters were well developed and well rounded, AND NOT TO MENTION NO ASSHOLE MALE LEAD. I felt like finally the main characters are people who are considerate of one another and behaving like mature adults. Unlike other dramas I've watched, any stupid miscommunication or misunderstanding gets resolved quickly and efficiently. No crazy lie that falls deeper and deeper until you get so tired of the main leads constantly misunderstanding each other.
One of the most important things I love about this drama is how they spoke about issues like eating disorders, mental health, and body issues.
Quick note of the cinematography: definitely very bright, light and something that's very "korean" like colour grading. I love the subtle aesthetics in the drama that's somewhat casual.
This drama is so freaking cute and lighthearted. It doesn't have those cringe cliche kdrama scenes where you go "omg," instead it's fresh and light and great for a bad day coming home.
Lastly, I love some of the hoodies Kim Bok Joo wears in the drama.

I rewatch some of it every now and then, it's so lighthearted that I can multitask while re-watching. I can't think of one character whose acting was bad. I fell in love with Nam Joo-hyuk, he did soooo well, I'm so glad that he was given this opportunity as a main to showcase his talent. Lee Sung-kyung also stayed true to the character and brought Bok-joo to life. One of my favourite characters was her uncle; he was moderately funny and never overdid it, as he could have given the nature of the character.

O enredo que envolve o halterofilismo feminino, um esporte que raramente é abordado nessas produções, ao mesmo tempo em que mostra outros esportes superconhecidos e queridinhos de muitos: ginástica rítmica e natação, é a primeira coisa a despertar seu interesse. Além disso, a personalidade da nossa mocinha é muito boa e a sua paixonite por um médico muito mais velho que ela, que sequer era capaz de perceber isso, rende muitas risadas logo de cara.
Outro ponto que não posso deixar de abordar é que a relação de companheirismo e amizade das personagens femininas foi algo que deu gosto de ver.
O romance é daqueles bem fofinhos que fazem você se apaixonar junto com eles, e a ausência de grades encontros e desencontros ou de madrastas maquiavélicas, brotando do nada só para dificultar a vida do casal, tornou tudo isso ainda mais cativante nesse drama.

Story: The story is so refreshing, it is very light yet you still have the urge to watch it and it not like other light cliche dramas. I love the idea of using sports! I love how the story tells about what athletes feel and how do athletes live despite of their problems in life. This youth, sport, light drama is perfection!
ACTING/CAST: Joon Hyung and Kim Bok Joo are PERFECT for each other. Their acting is so real that I thought they dated in real life. I love their connection, especially when they are in a relationship. The kiss feels so real, the hugs, etc. Kim Bok Joo (Lee Sung Kyung) is so cute and beautiful at the same time, I love her acting cute because she is cute! Nam Joo Hyuk is perfect on the Joon Hyung character. He is really good at teasing, he made me cry, etc. Kyung Soo Jin plays perfectly on the Si Ho character, I love the acting of her being obsessed and depressed from her problems. And other actors/actresses did well too. Really awesome.
MUSIC: THE OST IS SO CUTE and it brings you to a different world. I even downloaded the OST and some background music (I don't know if it is weird or crazy to download the background), because you feel like you are also in the drama and it really relaxes you. The soundtracks are cute and it makes you cry for some songs. It is perfect.
OVERALL: It... is... PERFECT! I can't stop repeating the drama. It has been months now and I still can't get over it. You should watch it if you are into youth and light dramas. It really deserved to have higher ratings on Korea. It's sad that it is a bit low on ratings on viewers.

Story - 10/10. I was very apprehensive about starting this drama. I LOVE sport dramas and i' working my way through them all. I thought a weightlifting drama would be boring and the sport its not one that i would choose to watch. Well, there is nothing i disliked about this story. NO annoying characters in fact, all the characters did a brilliant job. The flow was very smooth. I wasn't bored an the hour episodes seemed to go by really fast. I loved the development of the characters. Just enough Romance, just enough sport to get your attention. I loved the romance. I really really felt the love of Joon Hyung towards Bok Joo Not as much the other way round). I haven't felt such chemistry for a long time (probably since Que Sera Sera).
Acting/Cast - Nam Joo Hyuk .. wit woo. how handsome. Sometimes you forget how old he actually is. I'm now a fan of his and i will definitely watch more of his dramas.
A few cameo parts from very known figures including handsome Ji Soo and quirky Kim Seul Gi.
Music - Gave it a lower score and wasn't very memorable.
Re-watch - I very very rarely re-watch dramas so hence the low score. This is a personal thing and if i did re-watch dramas, this would be high on the list.
Overall - Well worth a watch. I don't think you will be disappointed. The cast was amazing and its really cute and fluffy with plenty of *awhhhh* moments.
P.S. Lee Sung Kyung can really cry. bravo *claps*

Why: This drama is for those that are at home full of work and just want an escape of it all. It's a cute lighthearted series about a hotblooded buff cutie and a handsome arrogant swimmer. You'll see how they are meant to be. It's not heavy and full of misunderstandings that can't be solved till the end, instead it's easy to watch and keeps you wanting more till the end
Story: It's original and interesting.The plot sparks up our interest and makes us wonder what might come out of that. Overall the drama kept a good coherent structure of each episode sequence so as to make sure we don't get tired or frustrated about misunderstandings that might occur. A great insight on the life of an athlete.
Characters: The characters were endearing and funny, each to their own quirk. They are all very realistic and even the 'villains' of the story are shown to have a heart too and that they aren't unreasonable bullies who are just there to annoy the protagonists. I live for redeemable villains, really.
Overall: You'll wonder how this can be 16 episodes, because of how fast you watched them..
