Sweet, but boring and slow-moving.

I enjoyed You Are My Glory, but only to the extent that I could play it in the background while I did other things.

Story:

I really wish Chinese studios would stop saturating the market with e-sports dramas (and Yang Yang would stop starring in them) because the story set-up often feels so contrived. That aside, though, You Are My Glory is remarkably well-executed. Strong chemistry, witty dialogue, and likeable protagonists turned a lacklustre, overused premise into something worth watching. I do have one large grievance to air, though, and that is the pacing - this show is very slow. It could easily have been 15-20 episodes instead of 32. There are insanely long stretches in which nothing really happens, or when things do happen, it takes far too long to resolve. If I needed to read subtitles I don't think I would have watched this show at all because I simply wouldn't have the patience to sit there.

Acting/Cast:

I credit the cast with about 80% of the reason I watched as much of the show as I did. Dilireba and Yang Yang have good chemistry, and this is one of Yang Yang's better roles in my opinion. Yu Tu's quiet introspection suits him much better than some of the more assertive characters he's attempted in the past. Dilireba's character is adorable and charming, not obsequious, and I appreciate that she is independent of the ML and romance. I found myself rooting for her more than I root for FLs with similar backstories/contexts.

Music:

The OSTs are pervasive but not bad. Don't have much else to say about it.

Rewatch Value:

I don't think I can sit through You Are My Glory a second time, but it's as good a choice as anything else when I want to put something on in the background while I do chores.

TL;DR: The plot of this story meanders but the pay-off in sweet and romantic scenes as well as chemistry between the two leads makes up for it.
