My Skiing Rival Off the Edge

About this drama

Eight hundred eighty-five characters, and the copy states a complete rivals-to-lovers BL with a dark edge. Noah is a rigid, homophobic elite freeski runner, and Ilya is a wild, obsessive Russian-American backcountry skier who has fixated on Noah for six years. As bitter competitive rivals, Ilya constantly provokes Noah to break his cold, self-restrained shell. A sudden avalanche traps them alone in a remote wooden cabin for days, and isolated by harsh snowstorms, Ilya's possessive, borderline violent affection overwhelms Noah's physiological repulsion, triggering endless clashes, hidden soft moments and suppressed longing. The copy states the aftermath plainly, traumatized after the escape, Noah retreats from skiing while Ilya lingers around him. Forced to collaborate on a snow sports documentary, they repeatedly confront past trauma, unpack their broken childhood wounds, and gradually tear down the walls of hatred and self-denial, reaching painful, mutual emotional healing atop the snow-capped peaks. The copy calls the healing painful and mutual, and sets the final reconciliation on the snow-capped peaks where the rivalry began. The copy names the fixations in numbers, six years of Ilya's attention and days of forced proximity, and lets both pressures do the work. Withheld: the content of the childhood wounds and the documentary's reception. Forty episodes, complete, 1,775 views.
