Youngsters' dreams and brotherhood

LIKE

When Solo, Gun and Appledog trashed it out their bottled feelings over the years and made up - soso touching

What Han Sang Yan did for Tong Nian - omg so envious...

DISLIKE

Probably Solo's decision that caused everyone's pain

MUSIC - personal fav

无名之辈 Wu Ming Zhi Bei - 陈雪燃 Chen Xue Ran

REWATCH VALUE

Yes of course

This is a good sports/competition drama that focuses on the lives and struggles of a former E-sport team that disbanded after getting the championship and how, 10 years later, they find themselves with the opportunity to fulfill their broken dreams through a nice story progression that leads to a satisfying result at the end of the journey. Although the main focus of the drama is the story of the main characters from the disbanded team, the leading male, Han Shangyan, finds himself falling in love with Tong Nian, a gentle and sweet girl that manages to help him break down his emotional protective barriers creating a nice and cute romance. There are some parts of this drama that are wonderful and some others that are frustrating at the same time. The writer(s) didn’t give justice to Tong Nian’s apparent high IQ making the character as someone lacking emotional intelligence toward her own self. Although the drama is full of great characters and solid side stories, they were not brought up to its true and full potential. This drama is not perfect but it is entertaining, enjoy it!

They really fit each other

Am a new comer here

First time watching them both🥰🥰.

Since then I've been searching for any drama that they act together.

I really love them both ( the FL and the ML ).

Am not tired of watching them both and I will never be.

They should keep up their good work, and my God continue to bless them

If you have not watch this drama then you are missing a lot.

I really pray to see them one day or be friends with them even if I can't see them.

looking forward to their next drama together.

More propaganda than romance

it reminds me of the old 80s kids show with a lesson everyday,
It starts pretty small (buying scalped tickets is bad) then it progresses until by ep 10 I felt like it was paid for by the Chinese government.
and so far it’s mostly about the competition not about the romance/OTP.
I watch dramas because I want to see the couple.
And English lines like “beautiful downtown Norway” didn’t help
All that being said.
If you like stories with a heavy emphasis on friendship, you’ll probably like this.
Of if you like stuff about computers/ gaming/cyber security.
The actors are good

I ...kinda hated it

I really dislike the main dude, his actions and motivations are really gross to me. Like he's mad at his friend because his friend chose his child over competition?

Also, one who is thirty (or even above 20) should * NOT be dating someone who is 18/19. They are kids and should not be seen in any sort of romantic way - the relationship just gave me the creeps not to mention how he always calls her child. The way her entire life revolves around him is really off putting too, like we constantly see her doing all this stuff for him and his job - where is he for her? It's been awhile since ive seen it - but i remember him never

I dropped it in the long run since it made me far too uncomfortable.

I must have watched another drama, a horrible one

Things I hated

1 Let's simplify things. Everything. The FL lead, a stalker, ugly, untalented actress who tries to pass on as cute and genius. The ML lead, an ugly, punchable, rude, obnoxious person without any redeeming qualities. Well, they deserve each other. The worst couple ever. The worst story ever. Too many episodes as well. I skipped to the end and cried over the time I wasted on so many episodes.

Sorry, I had to drop this!

This drama is not for me. I couldn't go past Episode 3. My reasons for dropping:
1. The female lead is a college student that acts like an 8-year old. Her attempt at trying to be cutesy is so annoying!
2. The backstory is too unreasonable. He held that grudge and anger for 10 years for a stupid reason. The male lead is so narrow-minded and selfish. Also, he only has one facial expression, an angry face.
3. The female lead is a stalker. I don't think it's a good idea, stalking is a serious matter and it shouldn't be romanticized like this. So creepy!

How can you watch something that both ML and FL are very dislikeable?

The only saving grace of this series is team KK, the boys are all adorable but not enough for me to continue watching this.

Overhyped

Here we have Yang Zi playing another dim-witted character even though we’re told she’s a genius . I’m at the point now where I’m petrified to watch any of her dramas since all she plays are such characters except now she’s 30 years old in real life and I wonder just how much longer she’ll stick with these stereotype. It’s neither cute nor endearing, and the script went way overboard by adding a layer of her being a stalker.

Similarly, the ML was written in a way that makes it difficult to root for him. He’s needlessly antagonistic with a face I can only call punchable and I couldn’t care less if they got together.

my main problem was the typicalness of the characters and the relationship... the same old "cold dark guy x soft naive girl".. I think I'd have liked it more without the forced age gap, I don't find any solid reason for making her a 19 year old beside having an excuse for her to be "clueless" and ready to chase the guy first? also to add conflict so the guy can "refuse" her saying "his too old"...

kind of like a reveres www, which was slightly frustrating, but atleast the main couple there started a "relationship" and had struggles through it, and it wasn't their main key word.. like they had a life outside of the romance?

also, the side plot, or more like the main plot(?) surrounding the guy is again so boring and pointless.. I REALLY didn't care for any his personal "struggles"....


my rewatch values are a 1 or a 10, also the music really didn't leave an impression on me, and I remember times when the song was louder than their talking?

Still in the process of watching, and will give it around 10 episodes or so before I decide whether to drop this show or not - however, right now, the female is truly preventing me from enjoying this show. I can't say I'm the biggest fan of Yang Zi, but I liked her enough in Ashes of Love. I'm totally okay with overly cutesy female leads, but not if 99% of their character is focused on chasing after the ML.

Right off the bat, she presumably falls in love at first sight with the ML, secretly gets his contact information without his knowledge, and proceeds to basically stalk him. She was even late to her event because she was busy chasing after him! The whole thing just gave me creepy, obsessive fan vibes.

Based on some of the reviews, it seems that her personality and background never really gets fleshed out and her supposed intelligence is not really put to use either, which is a damn shame. I'm just hoping the chemistry between all the characters is enough for me to continue watching until the end.

Will change my rating/review as I watch on.

Mon meilleur Cdrama de tous les temps

J'ai adoré ce drama, vu d'une seule traite et revu plusieurs fois. Les personnages (tous, y compris les 2aires) sont attachants et le CL trop mignon.
La FL est agaçante (trop) dans ses hésitations, dans sa soumission à sa mère, mais c'est peut-être un aspect culturel ?
Chacun s'émeut de voir le coeur de Loa Han (merveilleusement interprété par Li Xian, toujours génial) se réchauffer peu à peu, et le spectateur meurt d'envie de voir ce couple heureux, après avoir du surmonter tant de difficultés.

- Contexte intéressant et bien décrit,
- super acteurs (même les acteurs secondaires comme les "petits champions" auxquels on s'attache très vite). Je suppose que ce drama sera un excellent levier pour certains, vers des rôles principaux
- excellents OST (en particulier "Icould not leave, chanté par Dimash) mais tous les OST sont mémorables !

A voir (et revoir) absolument...

Pour ma part, je l'ai déjà visionné 4 fois :)
