Cute and electric...

It started off with a gorgeous umbrella scene....This drama is sweet, easy to watch and takes a fun spin on a bunch of well known tropes with en electric charm,combining the classical and oh so fun college male god icicle meet Pikachu (according to them, I know nothing about Pikachu) but it did remind me a lot me of Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo just without Nam Joo Hyuk's charisma and charm, but having in mind that this was a c-drama I was just happy to be reminded of one of my all time favorite K-dramas.

The men's swim team was definitely a pleasure for the eye having the male lead being the least attractive of the bunch this swim team was definitely a pleasure to watch. But they dress up a guy as a girl gorgeously not really as a punch line but laugh at how he looks, so unnecessary! There is no forced kissing by the leads, but we do have the classical wrist grab, the hold up against the wall and maybe a record in ways to accidentally fall on to each other lips, very impressive!

The female lead comes of as human, not overly smart, not stupid, she is independent but not cocky and is actually pretty lovable from start to finish. The Male lead goes thru a very quick character development and is actually a pretty lovable guy too. The side characters are not annoying, they may not be perfect but they do not make you want to skip parts like many other side characters do in other c-dramas and the grown ups do not make you want to smash the screen ether, they are actually pretty decent people...

There are some splashes of suspenseful drama and twists, non come as a shock and most of them are underdeveloped but not horraly handled.

All in all an enjoyable watch!
