Trials & triumphs of athletes

FOR AUDIENCES WHO: want to watch something light and has a happy ending. Who are interested in sports and journey of athletes. Who likes friendship stories. For those who want a fuss-free couple relationship.

NOT FOR THOSE WHO: want to focus on the complexities of couple relationships or who just want to focus on romance. Not for people who want to watch a lot of conflict in the story.

STORY:
It's the usual story of athletes chasing their dreams. There isn't anything new but I like that they don't just care about the main characters. They care about the supporting characters and their journey too. There's no villain here, everyone is just striving to better themselves and reach their goals.
I like that even during moments where Shen Zengyi has failed, she doesn't lose sight of her goals. Plus, I always like female leads who have their own lives that are different from their partners. I also love the sismance and bromance stories here!

CINEMATOGRAPHY & EDIT:
I like that they use a lot of wide shots to show the movement of the skaters, usually it's difficult because they have to hide the fact that they're using body doubles for the stunts. Though sometimes it's obvious when they use a stunt double.
As usual with tv shows, they use fast-paced editing and use a looooot of camera angles even for just short scenes.
Still, they're able to convey the excitement felt during the competitions and training montages.
The parts when they show the short track speed skaters starting ahhh so amazing. I love it when they show Zengyi running in the start of her races. It's so intense and exciting.

ACTING/STUNTS:
I like the actress playing Shen Zengyi. Her acting feels natural and I like that even in realizing her feelings, she still seems strong and independent. The actor playing Shao Beisheng felt lacking to me. Sometimes I don't feel anything from his acting. I don't know it felt too blank. He was cute with Zengyi (especially when he cried while hugging her when they got together, so cute!) and when he's messing around with his friends, but I felt he couldn't really carry the scenes on his own.
Their friends though, Lele and Qu Zhi were so cute. Their story was so interesting and funny. I actually cared more about their relationship than the main couple's.
It was a bit obvious, the parts when they used harnesses for the stunts, either because their bodies were too stiff or because it was too impossible to perform a stunt then shoot it.

COUPLE RELATIONSHIPS:
Healthy relationship of the main couple. They were very supportive of each other and understand that they have their own lives and goals. They build each other up. So cute and sweet!
The second couple, had much more misunderstandings. I felt they could've solved it sooner if they just talked but I still liked them. They're cute.

OVERALL:
It's okay but I wouldn't really rewatch it. It's enough to watch it once though it doesn't really stick to me after. Or I'll rewatch it for the competition scenes. It was enjoyable though because the sport is interesting and the competitions. Their journeys and the ending was so satisfying. It's generally likeable and I recommend that you watch it.
