My Favorite type of C-drama

When I first started watching C-dramas I found myself not being able to finish them, simply put I dropped most at the half way point. I thought these habits would remain the same until I discovered sports themed C-dramas. There is something so enthralling about watching a protagonist physically fight for something they believe in. Of course there is adequate relationship and regular drama surrounding the main premise, but the sports parts are done so nicely it entices me to keep watching and root for the main leads. "To Fly with You," has quickly become my absolute FAVORITE sports C-drama for several reasons.


So, what's so good about it?

1. The cinematography is superb. Everything looks so clear and vibrant, it was a real treat to the eyes.
2. The ML and Fl have amazing chemistry and the progression of their relationship is not painfully slow. I liked how easily they became aquatinted, supported each other, and were clear in communicating. I couldn't have asked for a more adorable coupling. I had a ball watching them interact.
3. I love a good jealous SFL; although cliche I quite like this trope and it was done well here. It wasn't overbearing but just enough to push the story along.
4. I love that the Fl was a sort of under dog that had to climb through the ranks of her short track speed skating team. Watching her work hard towards her goals, learn to work with a team and compete had me cheering her on (lol Ik this is a drama, but it was so much fun to relate to the characters).
5. The FL and ML's acting was so well done, by the end I was really sad to learn that their list of works were quite limited. I wish to see both as leads in more dramas.


What was kind 'ehhhh,' about it?

1. I did not get the mom of the FL, AT ALL. I feel like she was taking her opposition to the FL skating too far. I get that she got hurt, but all sports pose the risk of injury its was unfair to hold that over her daughter's head. She was quite dislikable before finally agreeing to letting the FL participate in the sport. Annoying really, glad it got better towards the later half of the drama tho.
2. Several times within the drama characters would refer to the college/school that the leads were attending and where they were participating in these sports at as like "low caliber," or would allude to it not being a renowned academic institution. This just made everything seem lousy, because it would suddenly feel like they were working towards insignificant goals. Honestly it was discouraging to hear and briefly broke the cute fantasy of it all.
3. Luo Xiao Yi and Coach Han!!!! Talk about rude and annoying. One was a brat practically until the and the other was corrupted; from favoritism to tricking the FL. Had me pulling at the hair on my head seriously!!!


All in all, it was a great sports drama. I loved almost everything, but hey every drama needs a little bit of a villain right? I highly recommend this drama to anyone that likes sports or school themes like I do. I especially encourage watching it to anyone looking to get into or having a tough time expanding their asian drama watching into C-dramas. This drama was easy to follow, had a great paring for main leads, was pretty to look at and overall adorable.
