This TV series is an absolute gem right from the opening notes of its theme song. While TV dramas have been hit or miss for me lately, this one is a breath of fresh air. The initial description of the show may not give away much, but once you dive into the first episode, you're immediately drawn in. The storytelling in the premiere sets up the plot perfectly.
The dialogue in every episode is profound and thought-provoking, almost as if the writer is a poet in...disguise. The cast delivers exceptional performances, portraying their characters with such authenticity. The camaraderie among the Tsung Fung boxing crew is palpable, creating many heartwarming and humorous moments that truly feel like peeking into a group of close friends.
Despite not typically being a fan of sports dramas, I found myself engrossed in the engaging storyline right from the start. While I felt that Wayne's character lacked significant development and some of his romantic scenes felt out of place, his complex personality added depth to the narrative.
Hoi Ching Nam is a truly inspirational character, brought to life with incredible versatility by Owen. The finale wraps up the story with a beautifully crafted scene that ties everything together seamlessly. The overall quality of the show is exceptional, and not just because of its unforgettable theme song. Don't miss out on experiencing this captivating series for yourself.
