I can't wait !

I like the HK version of Ossan's love. The story is very similar, but the casting is top notch. They really did a good job. Their Haruta is very well casted, I also like the boss character. In my opinion it would even be better than the jap version (of the series, not the special, the special is the best), but it runs a bit too long. You won't be missing out too much if you skip it, it's pretty much the same story line anyway.

Thai productions are very unreliable. I say that while fully planning to watch their version of Ossan's Love. But at this point my expectations are pretty much at ground level, so I should be fine.

Have you watched the Hong Kong version? They used a more likeable Hase/Maki but he still is a bit manipulative on some aspects. I think it's more a writing issue than a casting issue.

I will watch it only because of Pong. I FFWed through ep1 and I can't believe how fresh he looks (with some help from a filter but still). His former leads and rivals now playing mamas and papas, and he still plays the love interests. Good for him!

you always save me time on this lakorns haha thx

I unknowingly watched a censored version of this. Only found out when I stumbled on YouTube edits with racier scenes in it. The same happened with Pit babe, KinnPorsche. I've then decided to stop watching Thai BL (have not really watched many of them anyway) because I feel like they rely a lot on the leads' chemistry, so it feels like BS to then go and censor it on the back end.
I'd rather stick to Korean and Japanese BL that are produced with a conservative audience in mind at least I get to see all there is to see even if it's not much. I think (?)
I don't even know how to rate what I watched because it feels unfair to rate something that is not what the producers/director/writer intended to make.

This drama's stupid ending has caused a part of this community to descend into madness... 😭

Thanks! Oh I see. Yes it'd definitely be interesting.

Some people (like me) said they don't like the drama so much but got piled on and explained we know nothing. I personally tried to like it for a long time, because it's like a moving Wattpad and it felt nostalgic. But even Wattpad is better than this to be honest. Actors did what they could to give us chemistry but they're not magicians. I honestly think they didn't expect the show to be so popular, so didn't put much effort into it.

Yes I thought the real Baek Sa Eon told him they were related or something. But nope, just stupid noble idiocy. Honestly after a few episodes, it was almost like the writers were trying to cram in as many clichés they could.

Lol your disbelief will need more suspending for the rest of the show then 😂

I agree with you. Also the story betrays a lot the characters. Sa Eon who was supposed to be so smart ended up being fooled by the two closest people. Hee Joo who's supposedly good at keeping secrets was found out by pretty much anyone but the smartest guy in the world. I could go on for days. I think this show should've cooked for longer in the writer's hands.

What does that mean in English (I suck at statistics!) ?

I gave it 9/10. This is what All Out Of Love wanted to be but failed at.
This is a great melodrama, with a very romantic love, high chemistry, very bad villains, a charismatic and very grey 2d ML. Almost all the protagonists act stupid at one point or another but nothing too bad (though the FL was a bit dense, still smarter than many others).
What set this drama apart for me was:
- a smart, wicked, charming, morally grey 2ML
- older, but good looking leads with great chemistry, smart and resourceful ML
- we actually have many scenes the leads be happy, live as a couple, love and fight
- interesting side stories, but not overtaking the drama. The focus stays on the leads.
- great acting all around
- poetic ending.
I recommend it if you like and take melodramas. If you're in the mood for something light or funny, keep away.

I saw this one on Lee Yoo Ri's page and was so happy, until I found out this is a chinese production. Never mind...

You can be upset at many things at the same time. We cry for every victim of capitalism: the weakest poorest ones, and the more famous ones.

The shorter the drama, the more tolerant of any flaws I am. This is a feature film length, and gave us a cute little story with candy eye galore and a few steamy scenes (PG13). I had a bit of a hard time with the names but it really doesnt matter.
9/10

How did I end up on an Ossan's love spree?? I must say this little special is a gem. Much superior to the series in my opinion. The series only expands on this story, unfortunately they had to change Hase with Maki, which hurts the series. Maki is a bit cold, and aloof. I know it's supposed to be insecurities, but it really comes accross more like manipulative behavior.
Anyway, this cute little special is 10!

LOL

Yep. It's like wasted potential. Too bad.
