OMG this drama was sooo unexpectedly AMAZING ❤️I made an account just to review it so more people would watch this gem of a drama.So to reiterate do yourself a favor ,don’t think about it ..just go watch it or you will regret it??

Absolutely one of the best dramas I’ve watched recently in terms of modern romance,storytelling, character growth, teamspirit and refreshingly unconventional.The pacing is great, the story flows effortlessly and the gaming scenes have you GRIPPING the edge of your seat.The acting and interactions are so natural you forget that it’s a drama and feel like these people are your friends!
Im not into esports and I’ve seen some comments on how it doesn’t show a lot of gaming..but rather it shows the backstage of the esports industry which I for one prefer..

Jusy like a lot of you here I began watching this cos of Wang Yibo and I thought the storyline different.started watching without any expectations but WOOAH man I got HOOKED and invested from the 1st episode itself...and soon found myself falling in love with ALL the characters.

So the story follows the journey of Ji Xiang Kong( played by Wang Yibo) a professional e-sports gamer, and Qiu Ying , an aspiring commentator of esports on the road to the World Esports Championship, and how their worlds collide and get entangled with each other.

Ji Xiang Kong is a pretty unconventional male lead.He is the strategist of his team ,not the most talented or fastest gamer.Known to be the “underhand manipulator “ he gets bashed frequently and made the scapegoat on social media every time his team loses or something happens.But he also has a loyal gathering of fan girls due to his “ Shuai “( prettiness) LOL. WYB magic??What’s funny is that the scriptwriters cleverly incorporated Wang Yibos style and tastes( including his love for motorcycles) into the role. I must say I was impressed with yibo’s acting, he really pulled off the role of JXK exceptionally well and naturally.

The female lead Qiu Ying is an aspiring commentator.The actress is really likeable.She’s not the traditionally cute and adorable FL in c-drama..Rather she’s classically beautiful and does very well in the emotional scenes..Although in the first episodes she may seem a bit annoying you’ll get to like her by 2/3 episodes.She is kind and sincere but can stand up for herself without being loud and brash.I love how she’s not clueless and reacts rationally.

I like how they show the growth of the two leads separately as well as together since theirs careers are both in esports.After a series of perfectly understable misunderstandings Their relationship grows very naturally and believably.. there are no wild dramatics?and despite the unconventional pairing the chemistry is AMAZING!

The supporting characters are the CUTEST, all sorts of different personalities and I love every single one of them.My favorite is PEI XI!! Lolz you’ll find out why..

The OST ( especially the one sung by WYB) is really youthful and catchy..really suits the egaming genre..

Overall I would say it has the FEELS of Put Your Head on my shoulders( the effortless flow, natural interaction) while of course being a totally different genre and MUCH MUCH more eventful.

please watch this show..you won’t regret it!!?

A youth romance that will give you butterflies in every episode ! Highly recommend!

LinYiyang is a genius ex snooker player who had retired because of a conflict at a competition and is living as a student in Finland. He meets YinGuo , an up and coming young billiards player during a snowstorm in Finland and their love story begins.

This is a drama that gives you an intimate glimpse into a young couples love story from a fateful meeting, to their building attraction leading to a long distance relationship and the comeback of Lin YiYang as a professional billiards player again.

The lead couple’s chemistry and tension is INSANE and starts not even 15 minutes into the first episode. I actually haven’t experienced something like this in any drama recently ( and I’ve seen plenty ), it was giving me butterflies from the beginning episode to the end and had me glued to the screen.
The drama didn’t have the usual tropes like fighting, love- hate relationship, toxic male lead behavior, betrayal etc..instead It was actually a very real and urban depiction of how a relationship forms between two young people and the uncertainty and insecurity they face in a LDR so I really loved that.
The acting was excellent by all the young cast especially the two leads and the cinematography was just heavenly!!
I appreciate that they took time with the editing so the whole drama was beautifully shot and had a very dreamy vibe to it.
The first half of the drama focuses on the couple’s building romance and it is in the second half that billiards mostly comes into play. I enjoyed all those sequences too and the billiards scenes were mostly performed by the cast themselves, so kudos to that.
I also liked that the central focus was the lead couples relationship and didn’t deviate much into subplots.
I hope lots of people watch this drama, cos initially it didn’t seem to be my type too cos I like historical drama , betrayal, revenge etc like nobody else lol 😂
You just have to watch it to know how special this drama is ..
