Smooth as silk
Apparently nothing really happens in this cdrama, but once you get started you won't get enough of them. A simple love story that will entertain you with complicit glances, irony and a lot of tenderness. If we go beyond the sport storyline, they are an avarage boy falling in love with an avarage girl, living their story in a very realistic way, without silly missunderstings, without useless dramas or traumas.And..please tell me that the two main leads dated in real life because they had such a great chemistry!

The atmosphere, music and a fitting conclusion it has everything
What a beautiful journey it was first of all the OSTs all of them going in my playlist IT WAS SO GOOD! Just watch it even if billiards seem boring the characters their interactions it's worth it thankfully i used to like watching 8-pool so it was a even better experience only one critique don't think they explored side characters enough well the main characters were so visually pleasing it doesn't affect viewing experienceWas this review helpful to you?
Swoon swoon swoon
Leo Wu carried this drama through his eyes. Damn, the guy's eyes and the way he looks at the FL will make you swoon and make your love life seem inadequate... ha ha..Its a sweet, simple show without any misunderstandings and unnecessary drama. Just a sweet love story and a collective love for the sport. The only complaint i have is that the kisses were just pecks, I wanted more ;-)

Such a sweet love story
Normally, I am a big slow burn lover and don't like it when characters fall in love in the very first episode but this one is a whole exception, I REALLY LOVED IT. Especially, their scenes in Finland are so heart warming. There is no unnecessary drama, characters are mature enough, no overreactions. Unlike some other dramas, you don't see one side of the couple pushing it more for the relationship while other is as stiff as steel, both of them put same effort into their relationship. The only thing I didn't like about their relationship is the ML constantly trying to kiss her while FL constantly trying to escape although most of the time she is doing it out of shyness. Talking about FL, she is the cutest🤩 Cast members are way too good-looking and talented. And I am not mentioning the insane chemistry Mai and Leo have, coz their characters look like they were meant to be with each other only.Was this review helpful to you?
Top Tier Drama That is Worthy of Your Time.
This drama is like having the hottest cup of chocolate, wearing the softest cardigan, being covered by the warmest blanket, and living in the coziest home during a heavy snow. This is the warmest and most comforting drama I have yet watched.The plot of the story isn’t that complicated which I appreciated so much. I am happy that instead of giving the audience a very complicated plot they focused more on executing well the plot.
I originally thought the romance in this drama would be a slow burn one although it took them early to get into a relationship but I personally think the progression of their relationship when they made it official made up the “slow burn” category considering that they both need to endure the long distance and the situation Yiyang was suffering with his tarnished reputation.
There are 4 things I liked in this drama:
1. I like how Yiyang was basically the living and walking representation of the greenest forest. He was so patient and romantic with Yin Guo considering the age gap they have, the nature of the field they are in and the situation they both are separately dealing with. Yin Guo is also very commendable for having the best composure and being the most stable person in Yiyang’s life. I like how this series gave both of the characters the space to grow individually and a chance to grow while being on each other’s side on the most crucial time.
2. The story of the side characters too are very interesting. I felt like everyone has a story to share and have something to prove which kept me anticipating for their appearances. Aside from feeling comforted by the healthy relationship Yiyang and Yin Guo have I also felt warm with the relationships that developed and built in the billiard community and in the Helsinki.
3. Of course, the chemistry was on fire and the execution of the plot was *chef’s kiss.* There was no episode where I felt bored at all and this is all thanks to all Wu Lei and Mai Mai superb skills in delivering high quality performance to come up with a characters that heals, entertain, and influence the audience. Every episode and every interaction between Yiyang and Guo makes me giggle, toes curl, fist punch the air. In fact there are several times where I had to pause watching to calm down and take a breather because the chemistry is too much.
4. The OST ate. It gave every scene the perfect tool to make me feel like I wasn't just watching but rather it felt like I was there with the Bei and Doungxin people witnessing everything. And the cinematography is brilliant it was so perfect 3 minutes into the first episode and I was hooked into it (mind you, the intro was 2 minutes long).
I feel so sad and empty when I finished the drama because I know there will be no season 2, there wont be another AASOL, and that there is no real life Lin Yiyang that exist in this life. I know I won’t find another drama that could top this one. It was so much more than great. It was life changing. It makes me want to have an amnesia just so I can experience watching it again for the first time.
I am looking forward to watch more work of Wu Lei. Right now I have already watched LLTG before AASOL and I am planning to follow it through with Mai Mai’s other drama The Royal Princess.

El verdadero slow burn romance!!!
Un drama bastante hermoso, empieza un poco lento pero es eso lo que le da el toque especial, esa lentitud es la que te hace querer estar pegada a la pantalla.Ver el lindo romance surgir poco a poco es lo que hace a este drama tan especial, el que Lin se enamore de Yin Guo a primera vista lo hace aun más hermoso, ya que se ve que realmente quiere estar con ella, protegerla, así como casi nadie lo hizo con él.
Espectacular la química entre los dos, si hasta yo me ponía nerviosa con la mirada de Leo Wu!
Puedes ver como los personajes avanzan poco a poco y sin tantas complicaciones, resuelven situaciones muy naturalmente y realmente quieres verlos juntos, quieres verlos triunfar en el amor y sus metas personales.
Simplemente me encantaron los personajes principales, así como en la pantalla desbordaban química también lo hacían detrás de escena, que maravilla ver a estos dos actores trabajar juntos.
Los personajes secundarios me agradaron bastante, todos aportan lo suyo a la trama sin llagar a molestar, al contrario quieres verlos y saber más de ellos.
Super recomendado!

Intense Love Story ??
This rom-com has everything from love at first sight ( which I absolutely love) to second chances. The drama main focus is about Lin Yi Yang (Leo Wu) who runs into women’s 9 ball pool player Yin Guo (Zhao Jin Mai ) during a snowstorm and instantly falls for her ❤️❤️.With the help of her cousin, he starts hanging out with her and gets to know her. However, he has his own past as it seems that Lin Yi Yang himself was once as a professional snooker player who ended up offending a referee during his last professional match.
Frustrated with everything that went on, he took an early retirement and since then has been drifting through life trying to find himself until he met Yin Guo. Leo Wu played the character who is a good person but has abandonment issues really well. With the help of Yin Guo whilst chasing after her to be his girlfriend, he decides to move forward and make a comeback.
The pacing of this drama was well structured, from them meeting, getting to know each other to him dealing with his past with the help of Yin Guo whilst in a long distant relationship and finally finding glory together. Was done perfectly.
Alongside the 2 main leads, was the amazing cast which includes Wang Xing Yue, Dai Si, Dong Zi Fan and Chen Jing Ke. And they all did amazing job at their roles.
This drama demonstrates that with no matter how low you fall, with good mindset and positive attitude along with positive people around you, you can get back on your feet at any age.
The fact that both of the leads learned the game as well is so impressive and made it look realistic.
Absolutely fabulous drama and is defiantly 10/10 and a rewatch from me. If Anyone is thingking about watching this drama then go for it you wont regret it.👌

BEST DRAMA AND BEST CHEMISTRY
this is the drama i was looking for. The chemistry between the actor and actress is extraordinary. I hope there is a continuation of this drama because I really like the acting chemistry of Wu Lei and Zhao Jinmai. so sweet and so romantic.I will make this drama the best drama I have ever watched in my life. Even though many scenes were cut, this drama is really on my list of dramas that I will watch more than ten times

2024 BEST ROMANCE DRAMA
The story line is very good, the location also very beautifullI love all the cast, main role and support role all are the best
The relationship progress between ML and FL indeed real for me, at least that what I feel when I first my boyfriend and now become my husband
and of course there is no perfect relationship, sometimes problem come and that's a test of how strong the power of love is between two people can solve that problem
This is indeed the best love story for me, ^^

There are some little spoilers in my review.
Yup this is the best Romance drama.They are attracted to each other from the start and they started dating very early like in episode 9 they shared their 1st kiss and to the people who are commenting that FL is very amateur what do you expect from a 21 year old girl who was never in a relationship and just started a relationship in foreign land.
She feels shy while kissing him in public , that's why she avoid kissing in public and after some time she started taking initiative to kiss him,hug him.
One of the reason why I said this is the Best Romance drama was because there is no misunderstanding, a lot of kisses and a very happy ending.
There is only a little argument in episode 18 but that's it , It got resolved in episode 19.
There are a lot of sweet moments.Also The background songs are so good.
