Arrogant rich boy meets Sassy Office Worker
This series was short, cute and funny. Ho Jun was kicked out of the house by his dad in order to be taught a lesson and Jae Yoon was looking for a roommate. Coincidentally, they also happen to become work buddies. I really loved how the story and romance was paced out in the show, it didn't seem too rushed but it all felt like things were happening normally. The acting was great, the dialogue hit and there was a balance in comedy and seriousness.Overall this was an easy watch, and I wouldn't mind rewatching it. It's not the most amazing show out there, but it does its work.

Your Name Engraved Herein was a masterpiece for the ages
Such a beautiful story between two adolescents. The ambiance, the acting, and the pure love between them set the scene nicely as we follow their hearts and actions. Though this was a sad movie to follow as they battle with internal homophobia and oppression, their reunion settles a sweet ending as their young souls finally find peace in their aged bodies, reminiscent of the innocent love they once had.Definitely a rewatch for me, and also a sob fest!
Much love to all of those with similar stories as Jia-han and Birdy, and to the old bodies with innocent souls. Queer love is never easy (written from a queer person). But those two had bravery and love, even if it failed at some moments

Amazing show !
Before starting this show I’d been in a BL funk and hadn’t seen a single show that interested me but as soon as Only Friends came out that show RIPPED ME OUT OF MY GRAVE. The characters are so beautifully and psychologically written it’s such a powerful show. It’s dramatic, sluttish, attention attracting and I just wanted to yell and cry at all of the characters I LOVED IT! I would desperately wait weekly for the next episode. However I wish we got to know how they became friends. There were some issues that felt incomplete but the whole show was amazing apart from that.The actors were ALL putting their best in and every little details, every little improv fit so well with their characters. I know they’ve said before that these roles were intense and strained them but they all pulled it off and really showed their amazing acting range. Well done.
