Very light fluff

A new pairing from GMMTV, and a pairing I definitely did NOT see coming! But the chemistry is there!!! I love Match Point. Some may say it feels like another version of Bad Buddy, and yeah, I can see the resemblance. We have the forced-to-be-enemies-because-of-their-parents plot, but this time, it’s the sports version. 😂
I love how this series makes me smile every week. It’s very light and feels fresh, maybe because it’s a new pairing. The storyline itself isn’t anything very new, but the way it was delivered through the script and the actors made it work. Both of them are good actors, and I have to admit that Ping really improved compared to his previous works.
Though, I still feel like I would’ve seen them fitting better in a college setup. But of course, I understand that if they changed the premise, the scholarship and national team storylines would have to change too, so I’ll just brush that off. Hahaha. 😂
What I really loved was how they handled their relationship, especially when the secret finally got out of the bag. I also loved how they understood that loving each other doesn’t always mean holding each other back. Sometimes, it means pushing each other to grow, even if that means being apart for a while. 🥹
I just wish we got to see more of SingChimon. Maybe they wanted to test the waters first with this new pairing, so I’ll just hope we get to see more of them in the future. 👀
This is honestly just such a heartwarming series. It gives you the fluff, the cute moments, and just enough angst to keep things interesting.
One scene I’ll probably remember is when Sun asked his dad if he could meet his friend, and his dad insisted that he bring dumplings. Then he removed the carrots. Turns out, his dad already knew that he was actually going to meet his brother, which is why he removed the carrots. 😭😭😭 That little detail got me! And honestly, I wish we got to see more of their family story because there was so much potential there.
And then they ended up becoming friends only?!
NOOOOOOOOOOOO! 😭😭😭
Well, that’s how it is. Definitely going to miss my Tofu couple. Huhuhuhu. 🥹
And one thing my friends pointed out that I can’t unsee anymore: their faces are ALWAYS red, especially Teshow. HAHAHAHAHA! 😭
