I watched this because of Janice Wu since I became a fan of her since Le Coup de Foudre. And as expected of her and her great acting skills, she didn't disappoint.

But given Janice's expected performance, Steven Zhang also caught my attention. Zhang was just as natural. The chemistry between the two leads is so good and refreshing.

To be honest, there's nothing special with the story (or at least for me). I'd say, it's your usual moderm c-drama formula:
- Stupid FL (not so much here though lol)
- Superior ML (in everything: looks, intelligence, popularity, etc)
- Childhood friends who lost touch with each other
- Breakup scene somewhere in the middle just to ruin a pretty good story (which I loathe on every drama honestly like wtf)

What made this interesting for me is the sports elements. I love how the story didn't just focus on the "romantic element" but it rather gave nice touches and highlights on the ice sport parts.

The only downside for me is that I think the supporting couples have way too much scenes than the leads, which I find unnecessary sometimes. Don't get me wrong. I really liked the supporting characters overall, but there are scenes that I think aren't really needed (probably unpopular opinion lol). I think this could have been compressed into 30-35 episodes for that matter.

But overall, Skate Into Love is an enjoyable lighthearted and fluff c-drama. With Janice Wu and Steven Zhang in it, you won't regret watching it. Very cute!
