I absolutely loved this Drama, it's officially become my all time favourite Drama as of now. I'm surprised I didn't find this one sooner, given it's got everything I love about a good Drama in it. Friendship, persistence, youth at it's best, pursuing your dreams, not giving up and coming back stronger, sheer determination and love. Honestly, I was put off by the title at first, but the first episode: meeting Yi Bai and Yun Duo, lured me right in. I finished this in a week straight, but then wished I slowed down to savour it more.

STORY
The story arc was done really really well. It was clean, pure, paced well and didn’t drag on unnecessarily. A rare find. 37 episodes will go by in a flash and you’ll be craving more. There were a lot of sweet and funny light-hearted moments that make you smile, and this was perfectly paired with some of the heavy serious stuff that happens later on. The whole plot was thought out really well – they were able to integrate the present and past (four years ago) fluidly. I really liked how Yi Bai and Yun Duo’s connection was way deeper than originally thought.
Every character had their backstory and past experiences they needed to face. In particular, we see Yi Bai’s swimming journey and the hardships he faced to get him where he was, I loved seeing his character development. His drive to achieve his dream was really moving.
Yi Bai and Yun Duo’s relationship is definitely a slow burn – from friendship to love. You see their chemistry from the moment they meet (I loved their first meeting) and it carries throughout the Drama. You might get frustrated at the slow progression of their relationship, but trust me it pays off in the end, they are the cutest couple.
The end has good finality and resolve to it – everything is cleared up. Don't you love a happy ending ^_^

ACTING/CAST
Dylan Xiong’s smile is the cutest thing ever and I loved seeing him smile. His expressions were sometimes unclear (I hear he is relatively new in the acting field), but his smile made up for it.
Tan Song Yun was gorgeous and did such a great job (loved her outfits). They were definitely one of the cutest couples ever. And even when they faced an obstacle, they were able to talk it out and stay strong.
The second couple - Qi Rui Feng and Yang Yang provided the much need comedic relief and I loved watching them interact with each other.
Overall, the cast and acting was spot on. Couldn’t have found a better cast. I found myself loving the male tension in the air when the different swimming groups faced each other off. They found such a good looking bunch of guys – good job casting team haha.

MUSIC
I'm listing to the soundtrack as I'm writing this, so yes the soundtrack was amazing and fitted the scenes so well. In particular, the swimming competitions had such great inspirational and uplifting music and made the scenes suspenseful and made me even a bit teary.

REWATCH VALUE
I’m not into rewatching Dramas, but this one I would definitely rewatch again. If you're looking for a bit of inspiration and motivation to achieve your dreams or goals, this would be your go-to. If you're looking for a cute couple, who face things together head on, this would be your go-to.

Seriously, hope you give this Drama a go, even just watching the first episode. Keen to hear your thoughts! xx
