Hello, there little faces. Today I will talk to you about another Kdrama that I watched and I loved it. Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-Joo ( original title: Yeokdoyojeong Gim Bokju ) is about a young girl and her dreams to become a golden metal weightlifter.
Through the episodes we see Kim Bok Joo ( Song-Kyoung Lee ) and her friends at the weightlifter team trying to achieve their goals while life happens, most of the time with huge problems. She meets the young swimmer athlete Jung Joon Hyung ( Joo-Hyuk Nam ) and they start a weird friendship full of compliments, little fights, and support.
We see how the young athletes work hard for their goals, their first loves, their first heartbreaks, and their first dreams becoming true ( or not ). Friendship, family, and love are the elements of the show, while we see how they try to give to the young audiences a good example to be happy and that no matter how big their dreams are, their health is more important!
The series is really sweet and even sometimes some scenes may be “too real” for those who don’t know about sports but I think that it’s important that they show us the sad truth. The two lead actors are way too adorable together and they have excellent chemistry.
The series has one season with 16 episodes and it’s available on Netflix.
From me, it’s a 8/10 ⭐️
