Sweet Combat? More like Sweet Misunderstandings

Starting with the nice parts, I genuinely enjoyed this drama. Initially, I was skeptical about this at first, considering the rating it has on here. (which was right) But that was quickly thrown off my mind as I started watching this. I wouldn't say it was perfect in every aspect. But it was perfect in being the drama that I needed right now!
The episodes towards the start were highly addictive. I binge-watched about half the drama in a day. The chemistry was cute and the humor was surprisingly good. This drama gave me a lot of nostalgia, making me rethink what I want to cherish in life. I was so emotionally invested in the characters that this drama have me Post-Series Depression. :(

And that is sadly where all the good things end.

They took the title of this drama and threw it out of the window. This whole drama was a dumpster fire of misunderstandings. The story felt extremely inconsistent. At one time, Ming Tian has an internal monologue about how amazing fighting someone in the ring is. How hard he's going to work to be the best and protect Fang Yu from everyone. Then the next minute, he can't even properly throw a punch or is seen wasting his time. The story made it seem like the boxing/martial art aspect would be one of the major plot points of the story. Like hell, the dude even defeated the EdgeLord! the same dude who was #1 in the yearly tournament, who also beat the crap out of Fang Yu, but then BOOM! Next year, Ming completely forgets how to box. During the time skip, all we see Ming doing is roll tires and stare into the air. The male leads have 0 interactions unless it's about Fang Yu. We've seen Sun Hao and Ming converse only three times. The group sometimes acts like best of friends and sometimes like they are, sworn enemies. The ending was another disaster that I'll talk about later, but the story had a lot of plot holes. Like what happened to Luo Guan learning the death strike move? Did Ming and his bully have another match? Did Ming go further in his boxing career? What was the point of EdgeLord? Was he related to them or did he just randomly show up? Where is Auntie Ji's son? They eventually going to marry, so did Grandpa finally agree? Everything was left half-written. I'll only call this terrible writing.

People called out the ML and FL for bad-acting. I believe the acting was pretty good. Only the dialogue delivery was bland and felt robotic at times. I think the studio did not have any money; they showed the same cutscene like 20 times in every episode. At least film a few cutscenes and rotate amongst them. It doesn't cost that much. The flashback scenes were the exact scenes. Copy Paste. Lazy editing and production.

The ending was so incomplete that the ML and FL decided to continue the story in real life and finish it themselves (LOL). Despite the show being a great binge, the ending was one of the worst ones I've ever seen. Usually, dramas follow the - "They break up midway and get back around the last second episode"; but this drama took this a step further. Giving us the 'get back together in the last 7 minutes! Like there is a way to write an 'open ending' - where you got to interpret it yourself, left to your imagination. But this Ain't it, Chief. There were so many things I wanted to see towards the end. Fang Yu joins the college again. Ming wins a tournament. Ming and bully moments. The whole group celebrates Mama's wedding. Ming finally earns a good amount of money to make his siblings live in comfort. BUT NO. They had to do some stupid fountain scene.

OVERALL - Decent drama to watch when you don't have enough brain cells to spare for dramas. When you're looking for something funny, a clingy, butterflies in the stomach kind of love story. Worth the time?? IDK
