Great start, boring middle, rushed ending.

This type of rushed ending is seriously my pet peeve ; way too much happened in such a short amount of time.
Overall, it was cute, but reading the comments I knew to expect to get bored around the second half and I did.

I'll start with what I did like :
- Zen is seriously adorable.
- The chemistry between Meen and Ping is definitely there.
- Frank's pretty good in this. I've avoided his most recent series but he does a good job and he looks great!
- I don't always love sport series but I really liked the team and the games.
- Coach Ton is great, and I really did get attached, his story’s interesting (that could be said as a negative though, because his story is more fleshed out than Ryu’s).

But there's so much I didn't like, especially near the end :
- Atom was fine until he wasn't anymore. Constantly intruding into his home, even if to Zen and his grandma it didn't feel that way. Kowing the way Atom feels, it's actually so weird. Pushing to stay over and kissing his forehead in his sleep, and that's without even mentioning actively trying to get him away from Ryu by taking him to Phuket. It could be argued he's only trying to help him out since his club is disbanding but I don't buy it. His words are fine but his actions say otherwise.
- The side couple doesn’t bring much, in my opinion.
- Lin and Ryu never talk again after she ambushes him with his mom. I just thought it was weird they never cleared the air. Also, was Lin’s crush necessary? Did Ryu even realize?
- I really hate this type of parents where they make them super evil and unreasonable but they can suddenly change their mind in a heartbeat. Ryu’s mom saw him play once and suddenly she’s ready to let go what she’s been fighting for for years.
- I was so confused when Ruy and Zen met Ryu's mom after the game and she tells him she cancelled his flight and Zen looks all happy but like... did he even know about it? He didn't look surprised at all!
- I actually didn't hate the way the street basketball story ended, but it would have made much more sense not to have Q come back at the end.
- Zen is adorable but talking about Atom to Ryu on the phone without mentioning he's sleeping right next to him in his own bed is so sketchy. And again, that's never actually addressed. I thought it would add to the jealous side of Ryu we saw a little bit of but it was just a bit pointless and made me see Zen differently ; surely he's not that naive.
- I liked Zen coming back. It made sense. He didn't wanna leave in the first place, he just needed the scholarship. I have no qualms about that except for the fact that it went ridiculously fast ; Coach Ton announces the club gets to live on without much of an explanation at all…
- They saw people literally get shot in front of their eyes because of street basketball but when they need money they're ready to do it again just like that. And when they do, it looks like a children's playground...
- Also, am I stupid? I know we saw Ryu’s mom kicking out his dad but I don’t think that scene really explained what happened between them. I know he missed his game with Zen because of her but when did he move away? I’m confused as to when he decided to leave and how he figured living in the street was a better option? Plus, Zen made him promise to tell him what happened but we never see that conversation.
- They kiss at the retreat and never talk about it ever again! Excuse me, what the hell? And did he leave because of Zen initially? Or was it all because of his mom? Because if it was only because of his mom, why was he so reticent to ask him out? I hate that I still have so many questions!

Okay, there’s a lot more I didn’t like than I thought and it all could easily be summarized by “lots of plot holes” so I’ll stop here but yeah honestly it’s too bad cause I think they really did the sports aspect of the series really well and I don’t have anything bad to say about anyone’s acting.
