I personally enjoyed the series, as someone who doesn’t mind slower paced shows that are quite “fluffy”.
I will say that I thought there were too many side couples, there were 4 of them. Because there were so many side couples you don’t get to dive into any of the relationships that deep.
I definitely think that watching this once it had fully aired benefited me, the episodes are shortish and because not that much happens plot-wise each episode I understand people watching week to week would have been frustrated, so I think it’s best to binge watch.
Fluke & Fluke act very well, the others are decent but Fluke & Fluke give the best performances. The drama in this is very surface level, it’s pretty simplistic and resolved pretty quickly.
It was cute, although I probably won’t rewatch it (at least for a while). Overall, if you like cute “fluff”, don’t need super complex drama and you’re not expecting a masterpiece, then you might like it.

I also liked Sea & Tin from the start, their relationship starts off a bit strange, (but in a funny way) and I was excited to their relationship develop too.
The story overall was lacking in my personal opinion, the main “drama” of the series was simply just “when/will they get together/accept their feelings for each other”
I thought both the couples relationships could have progressed more quickly so that they could have faced other kinds of drama as couples throughout the series.
Because of that it felt like the show began to drag from the middle to the end, the finale felt a little rushed too to be honest.
I would recommend watching the director’s cut if possible because a few important scenes are cut out of the original series.
However the series had its moments, it was cute. If you like cutesy series with lots pining and aren’t expecting a masterpiece, then you may enjoy Friend Forever.
