its not that deep thats still early-mid teen years yes there r cases of athletes starting later. also this is a romance bl so why r u suprised that people care more ab the romance aspect of it
Lots of people start sports in high school, are really good, and become professional
The even more unrealistic part is having such an awkwardly down bad hottie LMAO. But jokes aside, the narrative benefit is that it does explain why Eunsan developed a bit of an inferiority complex. He who had been training for so much longer naturally felt jilted when a younger kid comes sweeping the floor with talent on top of hard work. The realistic part is that in this world, we do end up competing with ppl who are more prodigious.

9th grade? i know these stories dont tend to be grounded in reality anw but that was a bit much, no? like i had a brief hockey phase and the few players that i knew all started hockey when they were in pre-school or primary school. in fact most pro athletes start early... sure it's for plot's sake but i feel like the author could have made things more believable to people who actually know a thing or two about this sport. i guess they dont care that much because most fans care more about the romance aspect than the sport aspect. oh well
