*** WARNING MILD SPOILERS *** Title: An incredible achievement in capturing that fleeting moment in young love when all seems infinite until it isn't and "controlling the distance" in life and sports This series is one of the most moving coming of age stories I have watched in my life. In my opinion it should be viewed by a more mature audience of 30+, as most of the second half takes place in that bitter-sweet spot where life is no longer filled with possibilities but where youth is still close enough to be seen through a lens colored in a less pinkish hue than the first time around and properly analyzed in order to go on towards middle age and beyond. Kim Tae Ri gives life to one of the most memorable characters I have ever seen in film or TV (I am including here all that Hollywood has ever done). 10* quality drama which is NOT for teenagers. The only TV show that is close to this one in depth and wisdom is the masterpiece "My Mister" 2018, another k drama with Lee Seon Kyoon and IU. I'll end with another quote from this show:"You can't live in this World if you only know how to break". Highly recommended!
