A drama that really deserves a chance despite all of the controversy

This is my first review on this site but this drama really compelled me to write one. Probably one of those few dramas I've binged from start to finish without skipping a single scene. Trust me not one scene was a filler. Every scene is important and every detail contributed to the story.
I am a Xu kai/Bai lu fan but i wanted to watch him in a contemporary setting and the chemistry between Xu kai and Cheng xiao is just apt and perfect for this drama. Nothing is overdone and its not your regular cheesy romance. Yes, there is romance and there are some adorable moments but this show encompasses a mature and well built relationship not only between them but with every other character.
Si cheng is a really thoughtful and mature character and his role as a leader is just perfect but i really liked how they showed his shortcomings as well. Tong yao is a strong female lead who knows how to build her path and walk it herself and her character development from ep 1 to 31 is wonderful. Every other character has contributed equally and played their roles really well.
Coming to the story, i really liked how they stuck to their morals and held on to the main themes till the end. The toxic internet community and how it affects people was portrayed really well. Along with that i got really invested in the Onmyoji arena games. The game scenes were really well done. The struggles of an e-sports athlete and their personal lives along with the disaproval of most Asian parents was relatable.
Overall i have given this a 9. Its not the best maybe but its the best of its genre. The music is really good (not to mention seventeen and wayv eeeee). Rewatch value is 10 because i already miss the characters and i feel it'll be fun and new everytime i watch it.
About the controversy surrounding this drama i would say only one thing: its just a drama and its supposed to be entertainment. No hate is intended towards anyone and it is not intentionally trying to offend anyone. Please be a little kind and refrain from attacking the actors. They've worked really hard. Its really sad that most chinese and south korean netizens have purposefully given it low ratings. The actors deserve the praise.
