More Than Friends Review
In fact, More Than Friends has received mixed reviews from viewers, which means that some of them love the series and others hate it. But why are there such different reviews about the kdrama?

It can be said that the series follows a romantic storyline that’s reinforced by the theme of misunderstanding. Therefore, it may not appeal to the audience that wants to see something original.
If we look at the reviews on IMDb about the plot of the series, we find that some of the viewers found the story of More Than Friends “not involving” and that the plot didn’t develop enough during the episodes. Some also found the relationship between the main characters toxic, as the series shows a character’s self-loathing just because someone doesn’t like them. One review also states that the screenwriter’s goal is to keep the viewer in suspense by offering uncertainty about the future of the main relationship in the series, which doesn’t succeed and isn’t enough to make the viewer continue watching the series.
The second reason why some disliked More Than Friends is the performances of the actors, especially the supporting cast. Some viewers felt that the characters weren’t compelling and convincing enough.
However, there are certainly people who loved the series. The reasons why some liked the series are the same reasons why others didn’t. They’re the plot and the actors’ performances. Some viewers liked the way the romantic story is presented and the authentic acting performances of the main characters.
There’s another reason why people liked More Than Friends: the camera work. The series offers its viewers various scenes from Korean neighborhoods, as well as allusions to literature and the art of writing, namely calligraphy. So we can say that the series has won the hearts of viewers who’re interested in literature and writing and who love Korean landscapes.
