Synopsis
Due to a childhood competition, Lin Ge, a young girl, was introduced by Nie Chi, a young boy, to a sports academy, where she began her career in short-track speed skating. Lin Ge is optimistic, bold, and meticulous, while Nie Chi is composed, sharp, and full of ambition. Under the care of their fatherly coach, Fang Shizhong, at the sports academy, the two grow alongside Fang's son, Fang Chao, and eventually make it to the provincial team.
Lin Ge struggles with the challenges of coming from a family that values boys over girls, irregular training, and a weak foundation. On the other hand, Nie Chi, with his straightforward and aloof personality, finds it difficult to adapt to team tactics training. Despite the setbacks they face during training, the three support one another, and Nie Chi gradually develops a different kind of feeling for Lin Ge.
When Beijing successfully wins the bid to host the Winter Olympics, Lin Ge and Nie Chi, guided by the experienced provincial team coach Han Bing, quickly grow from naïve sports academy students to members of the national training team. Along the way, they meet, compete with, and bid farewell to various teammates and opponents, while overcoming injuries and the confusion brought by fame. Ultimately, they step onto the international stage together, defending their country's honor with the passion and spirit of their youth.
