I didn't find a 'great' different plot that make this unique as other K-Drama. But this coming-of-age romance story that use sport as background still very enjoyable. It's not boring even though it's didn't make me have exploit emotion like laugh or cry.

GO WATCH IT RN!! Oh god the chemistry between the two leads is just amazing! And the story focuses on youth and chasing after ur dreams, forgiveness, love and passion, What more could I ask for? The characters are all so well written and i'm interested in everyones backstory. I dont remember skipping even one scene till now! And can we talk about the ml? How can someone be SO CUTE yet sooooo HOT at the same time?! And the FL! Just the right amount of cuteness but she doesnt overdo it and doesnt make me cringe. She's clumsy, cute and pretty but can also become a badass and a stong player when she needs to. Definately recommend! I'm sad the ratings are low. If this was on Netflix, it would've been a HIT! <33.

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. The acting itself is phenomenal; both Park Ju-Hyun and Chae Jong-Hyeop do an excellent job as the main leads and have surprisingly good chemistry. Park Ji-Hyun also does well in portraying a dislikeable Joon-Young.

The subplots and character development do the series justice. Furthermore, the secondary couple Jung-Hwan/Yoo-Min completely steal the show with all their scenes.

My main issue with the series since the very beginning has been the amount of emotional abuse that Tae-Yang is being put through. This is being further exacerbated as most characters take it as normal and nobody steps in (whether this relates to the fictional or true reason behind Tae-Yang's bedminton break). I found this seriously disturbing to the point of making me question the realism that they're trying to portray.

Overall, it's definitely worth a watch but unfortunately I can at most give it 8/10 at a stretch.

I absolutely love how different the drama is, not actually predictable and it has the right amount of everything, its funny, inspirational, dramatic, romantic and sweet.

Not going to deny that for a few episodes all the guilt tripping they love so much in korean dramas got to my nerves, but I have gotten used to it by now.

This is One of the few dramas where you can see the love and the relationship of the main couple grow and develop. They have an incredible electrifying chemistry and it feels so real. The way they tease each other and their conversations, it all looks so real.

The side stories are also great with a lot of interesting characters and unique personalities, there's nothing cliché about this show!! Be ready for a lot of funny and silly moments, the relationship of the dads and coaches and all that bickering between them had me laughing so much!

The male lead is one of the most balanced and least toxic characters out there, he is mature and always respectful of whatever the female lead wants to do.

I'm really looking forward to keep seeing dramas like this.

It is a sports genre drama. It is about chasing your dreams, passion, forgiveness and love. I didn't know I will love this drama this much. It has the least toxic male leads which is the best thing.

Plot- A male and female protagonist who are badminton players and they form a mixed doubles team together.

The drama starts with Park Tae Yang(FL) was a badminton prodigy athlete but due to an incident she left the sport and decided to return after the gap of 3 years. Then she met the ML and their story starts from there.

Chae Jong Hyeop caught my attention in Nevertheless and I'm glad to see him in a leading role.

He has played one of the best male leads in the kdrama history. He has set the bar of boyfriends so high. Such boyfriends doesn't exist in real life 😔 He is the standard!!!

Park Ji Hyun is so cute. She played her character so well, we can feel all her emotions. Her is character is a determined badminton player and she knows what she wants.

The main lead couples relationship is top notch. Its fun to watch their chemistry. The teasing and banter was highly enjoyable. They are straight forward, they express themselves to eachother really well.

The second lead couples have heart fluttering moments and I enjoyed their scenes thoroughly with smile on my face.

This drama should've been hyped more, probably 25,21 was so successful and it was released almost at the same time that's why it was overlooked. But in my POV this drama should get more viewers. Its a lighthearted feel-good drama which will not disappoint you. .
