Review
"The Champion" is a good drama, not really innovative but very entertaining. The producers mixed famous young stars from Taiwan and Singapore. It reminds us a bit "My MVP Valentine" (you can notice that Yan Xingshu plays in "the Champion" too) but it is clearly much more glamourous. Unfortunately, the good rhythm of the 10 first episodes slows down in the second half of the drama. The regular fights between Jingwen's brother and father are a little bit boring. In conlusion, don't hesitate to watch it, it will be for sure a good entertaining souvenir but don't hope too much for brilliant actors as well as an innovative scenario.
