HIStory 2: Crossing the Line

HIStory 2: Crossing the Line (Taiwanese) - Zi Xuan & Yu Hao











I really liked this show. Even though it only had several episodes. I like how Zi Xuan and Yu Hao's relationship developed through the episodes. It started as being disrepectful (on Yu Hao's part) and distant (on Zi Xuan's part) to full of nothing of respect and love.

I liked that, at the beginning, Zi Xuan's friend kept annoying Yu Hao by trying to get him to join the volleyball team. And it ended with Yu Hao's teacher threatening his grade if he did not join. I also liked that he was so confident about stopping Zi Xuan's serves so he would not have to join the practice at all but ended up failing. I wanted to tell Yu Hao after that to never be confident about something in sports you have never played because you are most likely going to fail. It was nice to see him treat Zi Xuan differently after that, especially when he found out Zi Xuan had an injury that caused him to stop playing volleyball but he is still a part of the game.

I also liked the tension you could practically feel every time there was a moment between the two of them, even if it was only coming from one of them rather both. One scene where it was only from one was whenever Zi Xuan look at Yu Hao's eyes because Yu Hao would say his eyes were dry. One scene where it was both of them was during the middle of the night at a volleyball training camp when Zi Xuan had gone to the bathroom to try to get his injured leg some relief and Yu Hao followed him.

I can say that it was sad when Yu Hao had kissed Zi Xuan, confessed his feelings, and Zi Xuan had to go and reject his feelings. At least, that is how he made it seem in that moment before explaining himself either the next day or in the days following. But, in the end, they got together, and that is the important thing. Well, at least to me it is.
