I really loved everything about this show. The main actress is just great in this role and I loved her in Cheese and the Trap as well as was the male lead as they were both supporting roles in that show and leads here. We have a spunky strong female lead and a guy who is sort of in the shadow but who is the best sort of guy.
First of all this is a sports rom com so it might not be for everyone but I loved it even though I am not so much a sports fan in general. The goal of working to win a medal is a big goal but it's not the only goal in the female leads life, she also wants to have a boyfriend and be a girl. The weight lifting girls are not treated so well by their rivals the gymnasts and this was so relatable. There are so many humorous situations and things that the female lead gets herself into. A big part of it is her lying and creating problems that did not need to exist but in this case the lies really create whole episode situations. She definitely does not fall for the main guy at first but he is the friend for a long time so it progresses slow in the romance department but it is so strong when they finally do get together that they are just so cute as a couple and have great chemistry together. I think this female lead has to be my favorite in a long time and this couple is just so cute. She is great with over top sort of girl and I think she is an awesome actress.
I highly recommend this show to anyone who likes strong female leads or if you liked Strong Woman Do Bong Soon you will probably love this as well.

I really loved their development and it just proves that friendship is such a great foundation for a relationship. They both had problems to go through and they helped each other when they needed it most. They were such a healthy pure couple!!!
There was just so much fluff, and I loved every minute of it. The first ten episodes were okay but afterwards was when I believe the show really began to shine and increase in quality. We got had gotten to know the characters now, and relationships started to flourish. The characters had developed and matured as well.
I loved the aesthetic of this drama too. The gorgeous colours and lil cartoons were so cute. The soundtrack was also so good!! It is so lovely and soothing.
All in all, this drama was so pure. The last few eps are definitely re-watch worthy, and I’m really glad I took my friend’s recommendation and watched this adorableness of a show.
This is a show for all you lovers of fluff, you'll feel like you're on a cloud :)

esse dorama e perfeito, os atores deram um show na atuação.a quimica entre eles era indescritível.no início fiquei um pouco chateado porque a principal gostava do irmão do prota, ela insistia muito nele, abdicava dos seus sonhos pra ser a mulher "perfeita para ele ( irmão do prota). depois ela foi começando a gostar do prota.

An uplifting and positive story throughout, one of my favourite aspects of this story is how the ML and FL first become genuinely good friends without any pretense towards romance, it was fun to watch them being completely themselves around each other, playfully kicking each other or all those other things that you do with your mates but probably not with your boy or girlfriend.
Kim Bok Joo is a very talented weight lifter and one of the storylines is following her progression through and beyond university. There's less focus on the ML's sporting career which is reasonable - his name isn't even in the title at all :) But he does have his own story to tell.
Actually the ML's story was the one I felt had the least well executed conclusion, he gets a kind of blackout when he's about to launch to the pool in competitions and it has caused him lots of problems with late starts or early starts and disqualifications. He seeks psychiatric help and then just one day without any kind of revelation, it's just not there anymore, it just goes away. I was really hoping to see some kind of attack start, and then dissipate (perhaps on seeing Kim Bok Joo in the crowd) and that then be the transition to a better life, but it didn't work out that way. Not a huge deal but just something I was waiting for that didn't feel satisfying enough.
I loved the characters in this and the way the trio of girls acted together was fantastic, including their "Swaaaaaag" expressions. The chemistry among friends was spot on, and the later chemistry among the two leads was right on too.
It was really interesting to see this sport covered too, usually it'd be one of the more mainstream ones like running, swimming and that kind of thing - but seeing the weight lifting side of things was really interesting for a change and does give a small insight into the challenges that these athletes face in contrast to many other sports.
There's no bad bits, there's no stupid breakups, there are some tough topics covered including one of the gymnasts having her own serious issues that are then dealt with, but overall this one is just light, fluffy and wonderful!

One of My Ver Favorite Romances
0/10 is my rating on this one. This was a 2016/2017 South Korean television drama that ran for 16 episodes (~60 minutes/episode). The female lead character, Kim Bok-joo (Lee Sung-kyung) is a weightlifter and Olympic hopeful. She suffers the discrimination of a child with a larger figure in a setting where being svelte is prized. The weightlifters tend to stick together and socialize mainly within their group even more so than other athletes. She is strong and relatively tall for a woman and is often viewed and treated as something other than feminine. She professes no interest in dating and her focus is mostly on her sport. The male lead character, Jung Joon-hyung is a swimmer who also aspires to medal but has a serious handicap in that the stress of the start causes panic or migraine like symptoms that have caused him to make critical mistakes and ultimately lose races. Bok-joo and Sung-kyung's paths cross by happenstance and they slowly discover that they knew each other in grade school and had a friendly relationship.Spoiler ? I thoroughly enjoyed this delightful romantic comedy. Some of the scenes had myself and those I was watching it laughing. It is very lighthearted yet does give you a slice of life look at sports college life. The characters are well developed and you grow to know and like the majority and root for their success.
This is at the top of my watch list. The title threw me as many titles of Asian dramas do I thought it might be silly. It isn't silly in that way at all more comical and amusing at times but in the best of ways.

Combination of romance and comedy
Good drama for beginners ?♥️The cast of the drama performed very nicely and their efforts to make audience nostalgic are appreciabl.
This drama also put some light on the difficulties and challenges faced by the athletes in their journey to achive something. Also highlights the role of our mentors in the passage of success.
Through this drama we came to know about what kind of thought and feeling an athlete such as a weightlifter have .
It also highlights the role of our family and gaurdian, they are the one support us from back stage weather it is financially or emotionally. The athletes should always be encouraged to push their limits and should maintain friendly relations with their colleagues

I wish he didn't call Kim Bok-Joo "fatty" all the time, though, especially when she was trying to lose weight. I love his goofy character most of the time, but I thought that was a bit too mean. No insults about physical appearance. I loved that he was absolutely smitten from the start, though. He had it bad and he didn't even deny it. He was just considerate and happy and sweet to her all the time and just genuinely adored her. She didn't realize it as soon, which I thought was realistic, too, since all she knew was that she liked being around him. I loved that she came to the realization more that she never wanted to be away from him, more than just the physical romance side of things, y'know? But yeah, I loved the absolute pure joy and comfort they found with each other and how they showed their love. You never forgot that they respected each other, either, because they would always be selfless to each other, and I loved that Kim Bok-Joo made him want to be a lot more selfless and caring to her. I loved that he thought of her as a girl and wanted to treat her as such, too. Goodness gracious, I just can't give enough praise to this show!
Fluff factor: so sweet it could give you a cavity
Overall, I really enjoyed the fluffiness and lightheartedness of the show! And I'm always a sucker for fluff. I liked the acting well enough, and I absolutely loved all of Jung Joon-hyung's lovesick faces. I just can't emphasize how good he was at being so super smitten! 10/10 will probably rewatch like 8 times

One of the best and cutest kdramas out there
It's honestly embarrassing how many times I have watched and re-watched this show; the actors are amazing and their haters to lovers plot is executed so well. They have great chemistry and they really do just feel like two university students which I think a lot of kdramas can exaggerate sometimes. This drama came out in 2016 but nearly everyone I ask that is into kdramas has watched it and loved it. Simply put, its a really comforting show to watch and they deal with some difficult topics as well.I think my favourite part about the show is that Kim Bok Joo never has a "glow-up" moment where she miraculously becomes this gorgeous girl but she just is herself throughout the entire show and she is loved for that. A lot of other kdramas can't say the same.
Be warned, you will want a significant other after watching this.

a gem of a drama
WLFKBJ is indeed SWAG! Love the friendship of our weightlifting trio. BookJo was really cute! The relationship between father-daughter-uncle was nice. Cameos were unexpected, lols.Will I rewatch this drama? Probably yes if time permits, and I am compelled to stay indoors (which is quite rare, given the hectic schedule rhat is work.)
