Maybe some may think I've rated this drama too much for what it was worth but it was a ten-star worthy one.
Throughout this 2021 year journey, I've seen and rated so many dramas and this by so far is one of the best. It had many flavours savoury, bitter, sour, salty and sweet. the chemistry, romance, plot, direction, choreography and acting are just beautiful.
The story had a direction and flow. It had a reason and it stayed the same till the end. Many dramas at times lose this direction I'm talking about and confuse us very much. We begin to lose interest in the plot, lose the connection and get bored quickly but for the first time in a long period of six months, I found a drama where I didn't skip through the scenes.
I saw all the plots, all the scenes with the supporting actors and at times even the credits because the ending ost is simply beautiful. It was such an encouraging drama and worth every minute I spent watching this 45 minutes long 33 episode drama.
Speaking of supporting actors, I must say without them this drama definitely wouldn't be this good. They helped make this complete and I can't imagine myself viewing this drama without even one of them. Each character was enjoyable in their way. The male and female lead's chemistry was so sweet that I thought I would get diabetes. The way they supported each other throughout their whole journey to the competitions was just so encouraging and so so admirable that you couldn't help yourself but cheer for them. The relationship between their mothers, the chemistry and the fallouts between their friends, their journey of growing up, them just being themselves, their day-to-day life all we're just factors that just made this drama another perfect one.
But it may be a little exaggerated when I say that it was a perfect one because it was flawed but every scene, every moment just made me especially anticipate for the next scene thinking what happens next. Crying with them, laughing with them, cringing thinking "Wow! This is just so damn sweet" - simply makes me put this drama on my rewatch list.
But the biggest thing I've learned from this was not giving up encouraging ourselves, believing in ourselves, believing in our teammates! Overall it was a wonderful lesson. The drama pointed out its view and showcased the thoughts it wanted to show the viewers and I'm sure the viewers have received this because I did.
I recommend this drama to everyone who likes encouraging themes, life's lessons, sports, college, romcoms, you would enjoy this. And comparing it with the 2020 winter sports drama skate into love I have to hand it out they both are well-directed, two amazing dramas that bring a smile to one's face and can't but help yourself silently cheer on for the male, female leads and supporting actors.
