A lot of space for improvement It took me a while until I decided to write a review, because I usually don't write a review if I don't like a series, and I didn't like it at all at first. However, I had the beautiful OST song 'Kund pwede lang' by Clark Blancaflor in one of my playlists. That song made me rewatch the series some days ago, and now I do like it. The basic idea is the 'guardian angel' topic: A desperate boy is about to commit suicide, calls a number he finds on the railing of a bridge, and the boy who answers persuades him to stay alive. Without knowing each other, the two boys meet by coincidence, are enemies at first, but become friends/boyfriends within a day (hence the title 'One day love'). This idea would have provided a good story, but the script has some issues that are, to put it mildly, confusing. Loads of side characters, some of them mere caricatures, divert attention from the main couple too often. Whereas the background of the 'desperate boy', Roi, is being told step by step, so his actions become understandable, the biography of his 'saviour', Kyle, remains superficial. Some scenes are barely credible, like ex-lovers appearing out of nowhere, Kyle falling into a pool twice, almost drowning although the water isn't deep enough for that, his friends standing around yelling at each other etc etc. In short, the script lacks quality. Sound and 'cinematography' have a lot of space for improvement, too. There are a few things, however, that make this series watchable. Although the acting is poor (you can't actually call most of the cast actors), the main couple, Ivo Rosimo as Kyle and Allen Caguioa as Roi, show a glimpse of talent at least, especially Allen is lovely in some scenes. The story, although clumsily told, is basically interesting. The best thing is the OST which mainly consists of the 'Kung pwede lang' song. It seems there is going to be a season two, and if so, I only hope that the script will be more consistent, actors better trained, and technical issues resolved. As I am an unshakeable optimist, I'm looking forward to it. Country: Philippines Episodes: 7 (à 15 mins.) Director: Ranz Gonzales Cast: Allen Caguioa, Ivo Rosimo, Clark Blancaflor, Robert Calara
