Oh this drama is such a happy pill. It's one of those you'll reach for again now and then. My favorite thing about this drama is that although there were old wounds to be healed, there was no 'great danger' or villain to overcome. It was mostly a story of two strangers who met and fell in love and that is such a breath of fresh air. Such a relief to have sweet, compelling characters just living life, doing their own thing. The career aspect was just as engrossing as their love story too - I loved that part. I've never played billiards nor do I understand the rules of the game, but every competition Yiyang and Guo participated in had me on the edge of my seat.

Also, the friendship between the Donxingchen boys was a pleasure to watch. They knew each other in and out no matter how much time passed, and they supported each other without question or malice. It was great to see such brotherhood.

I may be late to the party but Wu Lei's performance here absolutely floored me. He was SO good as Lin Yiyang the billiards genius. His chemistry with Zhao JinMai? Off the charts. Incredible.
