If you are asking about the relationship, by around ep 5 it picks up and I think ep 8 or 10 is the first kiss. It is slow in the first 4 episodes as they get to know each other because to her he is still a stranger. It takes time. But you will see growth in the FL once the relationship is established and she even initiates the kisses. By episode 15 they are more than just kissing even though it is implied but the hints are there. Later something will happen that establishes that as fact. Some people call it slow burn because of the near kisses in beginning and the gazes between them and others call it fast pace because they get together early. Without spoiling it, I will say his for her leads him to a decision which takes him back home. And from there they deal with the obstacles and striving toward winning the championship.

She was upset because he didn't respond to her messages and when she went outside to talk to him he wasn't very communicative. When he turned away to get the cherries she didn't know that was the reason and felt he was ignoring her so she walked away. She was going to go back right after but her family came out.
The FL's mother was not receptive to LYY because of the way his teacher who was well respected and esteem went to cry for him. She felt he caused his teacher distress at that time. Afterwards the mother told the sister that she should not talk badly about him in the field because when someone makes a comeback , it would not be fair to him. It all works itself out later. Not sure where you are in the drama.

Yes. I know people have opinions. My point is as I stated above, she said there was no snooker or anything but matches started after.

The point is that had she watched further she would have seen there was snooker and other billiard games. It didn't start till after.

Welcome to this group. It has mostly friendly people so you will enjoy! While you watch, look for hidden means and symbols in everything they do.

I hear you! I loved MXD so much and wanted more of him in this drama.

Yes. Jin Mai is wonderful and I am thrilled to have another actress who is so natural like actresses such as Zhang Jing Yi!

I am still waiting for Wang Xin Yue to have a lead in a modern drama and look just the way he looked in AASOL! After this, I really want to see this happen especially as we did not get to see enough of him!

Love this!

Thank you! It came to my attention that people purposely lower ratings at the time Hidden Love came out. For AASOL, there have not been as many haters but I noticed a couple people I know from another drama who gave this low ratings and also wrote a review so they could leave another low rating. I also noticed some gave all the episodes low ratings even before the episode came out. That is one sign that people are deliberately down rating this drama out of jealousy. I know two of those people.

This drama is a definite 10 for me. Sometimes I am lenient with other dramas but with this one, it would be a 100/10 if I could. The fact that I didn't get enough of MXD does not make me lower the rating. I am hoping for a spin off with his storyline.

The "slow burn" concept is up for debate. LOL! I can see both sides. I love that they become a couple early and I don't know if I can tolerate any drama after this where they get together at the end! But I feel those who see "slow burn" are talking about the near kisses and tension until that first kiss. How I love this drama!!!

LOL! Don't be surprise if you see some objections to "slow burn." LOL! I have responded to some saying I can see the "slow burn" point of view because of all the near kisses right from the start and those smoldering gazes that seem to rove to her lips. And I can see the "fast" point of view because they get together early. It is all good!

Please leave a rating if you love this drama. There are some who come in here just to leave low ratings of 1 to downrate the show. Believe it or not, there are some jealous fans of other actors who do this.

AASOL is filled with some hidden meanings. But I would not have known about the reason LYY removed the rest during one of his games because I know nothing about the sport.
I watched this drama at least 4 times and each time I pick up something new. Thanks for the info.
It is ridiculous that some people watch a few episodes and leave low ratings saying it has no plot or depth.

Oh then keep watching and the timeline might make more sense. I thought your were finished. I think when she met him at the airport on his final return, it was 1 1/2 years since she left Finland.

I know I should just ignore people who come in to leave low ratings. One person left a rating of 1. She said she got to ep 7 and there is no snooker, nothing. But that came after the 7th episode. I think the first match Yin Guo had as ep 12 or 13.

Do you really think that you after watching only 7 episodes you know how this turned out? The match begins after and once LYY returns to China we see more of him working with the team. It first starts out with the relationship because it is his love for YG which made him decided to return to China to the delight of his friends. The friendship they had since childhood was heartwarming. And even if that does not interest you, do you think you should leave a rating of 1 for a drama you have not watched? There are 30 episodes and much more happened after ep 7.

Today is Chinese Valentine's Day. February 25th. Did you notice the 5 on the ball LYY roller over to YG? Numbers have meaning in Chinese.

AASOL has depth and meaning. You just need to look for it. I knew there was something to the ball that LYY rolled over to YG the way it was so clearly displayed.

Jin Mai is such a natural actress. I look forward to seeing her in more dramas.
