Sweet Combat (2018)

In the vibrant backdrop of Zheng Ze University, a tale of determination, defiance, and love unfolds. Ming Tian, a resilient young man portrayed by Lu Han (EXO, The Witness), hails from a humble background, juggling multiple jobs while also wrestling with gritty street fights. Despite having no athletic history, he seeks refuge in a sports scholarship to escape his penury-inflicted life. On the other end of the spectrum is the fiery Fang Yu (Guan Xiao Tong, To Be a Better Man), the heiress of a colossal conglomerate, whose passion for sports outshines her interest in inheriting her family's empire. As Ming Tian steps into Zheng Ze University, his path intertwines with Fang Yu, the reigning school boxing champion. Rebelling against her family's expectations to become the successor of their vast business empire, Fang Yu, at a tender age of 18, has already claimed her first boxing championship title. But her life takes an unexpected turn when she is assigned to transform the inexperienced Ming Tian into a skilled boxer. The boxing ring becomes an arena of emotions as the duo spar and sweat, gradually developing undeniable feelings for each other. However, the specter of Fang Yu's disapproving family looms large, threatening to shatter their clandestine bond. The heart of Sweet Combat, directed by Ke Han Chen, lies in this sweet yet tumultuous love story, where each punch and jab echoes their struggle to stay together. As the series progresses, Fang Yu becomes the beacon of hope for Ming Tian, recognizing his untapped potential long before anyone else. Their relationship, although fraught with challenges, grows stronger, mirroring their personal battles against societal expectations and financial constraints. Aired in 2018, Sweet Combat weaves a compelling narrative of love and ambition, where each round in the boxing ring symbolizes a fight for their dreams and desires.
