Actor and EXO member Sehun has made his acting return in "All That We Loved." However, some viewers are not satisfied with his casting and performance.
Is Oh Sehun Too Old For High School Role?
TVING's new campus-romance drama "All That We Loved" made its debut last May 5. It stars young celebrities namely, Sehun, Jo Joon Young, and Jang Yeo Bin. The trio was quick to captivate many with their fresh visuals.
According to people, Sehun, who is 29 years old, looks too mature for the character of a high school student, and it is not uncommon for actors to play student roles even in their 30s.
Others are also arguing that the age gap between the co-stars is too noticeable, making them feel awkward.

Meanwhile, playing a student at the age of 30 is not a problem as many actors still play that role even if they are already in their thirties Song Joong Ki, Hwang In Yeop, Kim Tae Ri, Park Bo Young, to name a few.
Sehun Receives Mixed Reactions For His New Role
"Isn't Sehun nine years older than his male co-star? It is awkward seeing them play with same-aged friends."
"When I saw the drama stills, I already knew that the characters' age will be an issue."
"Hwang In Yeop was 29 when he starred in '18 Again' and 'True Beauty.' Choi Woo Shik was 31 in 'Our Beloved Summer.' Why did none of the viewers have any issues then, but then suddenly complain about Sehun's real age? You guys have prejudices against idols."
"If EXO Sehun is 25 years old, I think he is more suitable for the role."
"All That We Loved" follows the story of two best friends who fall for the same transfer student in high school. Sehun is Go Yoo, a charming basketball genius. Jo Joon Young is Go Joon, Go Yoo's best friend who receives a kidney transplant from him.
Rising actress Jang Yeo Bin stars as Han So Yeon, a pretty transfer student who steals Go Yoo and Go Joon's hearts.
The drama is gaining the viewers' attention with its fresh concept and interesting plot. "All That We Loved" airs every Friday on TVING and is composed of eight episodes.
