This series from DnD Studio in collaboration with kakao entertainment and MStoryHub is based on the BL webtoon 'The Ideal Relationship' by author Ken. It's also known as 'Our Companionship' in some quarters, but has been rechristened as 'My Dear Gangster Oppa' for this series. It stars Meen Nichakhoon ('Love By Chance 2', 'Ai Long Nhai') and Ping Krittanun ('Ai Long Nhai') as it's central couple Tew and Guy, with support from Winner Tanatat ('MY Universe' 'War of Y'), Paam Setthanan ('Bite Me') Noon Sutthipha ('Be Mine Superstar'), Tommy Charupob, Cosmo Milis and Anon Saisangcharn. It's directed by Dome Jade who previously helmed Max and Tul's seminal BL production 'Together With Me' and more recently, the little seen - due to its makers pulling its international release after the first episode - 'Boyband The Series'.
Synopsis: "Guy is a shy introvert who has a longtime crush on his handsome friend Wan, but then again, he's so popular that everyone likes him. Feeling like he can’t compete for Wan's affections, Guy decides to immerse himself in something else to take his mind off his non-existent love life and dives headlong into 'The Legend of Saga', an online game where he plays as the confident character “Idealize.” He soon befriends and meets up with a number of the other online players, most striking of which is “Yuri”, a cute healer character who clearly has a soft spot for him, and who just so happens to be a real-life gangster. Could this tough individual be the ideal lover he's been looking for after striking out in the real world, or is the real world about to deal him a fierce blow that he could never have expected?"
