Like watching a tennis tournament featuring tidbits about players' lives
If I were more sports minded, I bet I would have loved this drama. It details a team's rise in the national league championship. It stars Peng Yu Chang as Lu Xia, a 10th grader tennis genius who was able to be a main player in his school's tennis team. Initially a loner, he learns to be part of a team. Aside from his struggles, both personally and sports-wise, the drama also delves deeper into the lives of his teammates and key players of opposing teams.
It's well-made and the matches are exciting. However, I mostly watch dramas for romance which is not the main offering of this drama. If this were shorter, I would have watched to the end to find out what happens between Lu Xia and his love interest Qi Ying (Ireine Song). But 42 episodes that mostly deal with tennis techniques and matches are too much for me. I'm dropping off at episode 17 but still giving this a fairly high mark since what I've watched so far have been impressive, just not my type.
