PieGolf deserves the world.
I loved them sooo much, like Tiger is really such a loverboy. It's so funny and cute that a mafia is so silly and in love.I didn't think that I would love them so much... but Oh My God. Pie (Tiger) and Golf (Nao) are such a delightful surprise! They're such good actors, the mannerisms, the quirks. Perfectly developed characters, I'm so eager to see them together on-screen again!
And it's sooooo cute. Probably the cutest lovey-dovey of the whole Fourever You project?
I loved them, I loved Nao's family, they're so warm and cute. Like Nao grew up with so much love... that's why he has so much to share with Tiger, giving him a warm home. It's adorable.
I do wish that it was more... developed, I guess? I felt like the narrative got stuck for such a long time on some problems that, towards the end, it felt a little bit rushed. It wasn't unpleasant, but it's what made the series a 7.5 and not a 9, to me.

If it were up to me, it would take them even longer to get together
SueaDueannao squeezed my heart and killed me in the best way. Yearning and clueless characters are truly a match made in heaven. I love that they're mostly on an even playing field and have the same hobbies. The whole "It's okay if your family sucks; I'll just share mine with you" is one of my favorite tropes. Bonus points for showing the lives and interiority of both leads equally.The acting is hit and miss. 75% of the friend group (North and Field being the exceptions) and 100% of Tiger's family members are portrayed by bad actors (especially his father and SinghaBen). Pie doesn't cry convincingly either, but otherwise the romance is adorable and nuanced enough that I choose to overlook this flaw in his acting.
The mafia stuff was part of the initial appeal for me but ended up a cringefest. Luckily these elements are mostly set dressing for the romance. This also means that the friendship and romance may be effective, but that the danger comes and goes whenever it is needed for dramatic reasons, which makes for nonsensical and awfully convenient developments.
Overall, I wish this were a 10-episode series with more budget. While the slow burn is delicious, the denouement is rushed. Just imagine if we saw Dueannao realize his feelings instead of having to listen to him monologuing his change of heart to North! But since SueaDueannao wound up being my favorite dynamic in the Fourever You universe, my rose-colored glasses stay on, and the rating reflects my bias.

It was cozy yet dreary at the same time
Out of all the installments in the Fourever You series, this was my most anticipated one. Considering how little screen time Suer and Duennao had in the previous installments, it was enough to make me crave a full series centered around them.Their chemistry was already established, so everything depended on the execution and the story’s foundation to create another memorable project. While the sequel delivered on some aspects, it also came with several flaws that were difficult to overlook.
The Pros:
First, the cliche storyline was executed surprisingly well. Most of the scenes were predictable, but I still found myself invested in them. The casting of the twins was excellent, as the actors genuinely looked alike, making the dynamic much more believable.
I also enjoyed watching the main couple’s everyday school life and their individual family struggles. Duen is blessed with a loving mother and a supportive brother, while Suer comes from a much more complicated background. He constantly clashes with his tsundere older brother and has to deal with a father whose toxic masculinity is reinforced by his position as the head of their gang.
I don’t know why, but I always enjoy jealousy scenes. They add an extra layer of spice to the couple’s chemistry, and seeing Suer get jealous was incredibly cute. Although their relationship took a long time to be officially defined, I loved the sense of comfort and familiarity that existed between them from the very first EPs.
The Cons:
The biggest issue for me was the acting, particularly from the supporting cast. It is such a crucial element, and I hate it when a character isn’t portrayed convincingly, which is exactly how I felt about Suer’s older brother. His performance lacked authenticity and emotional depth, and at times it felt like he needed more acting training.
I also noticed a lack of emotional engagement from the main couple’s friends, including the twin brother. Whenever they weren’t speaking, they often appeared stagnant, as if they were simply waiting for their next line. Unfortunately, the main couple isn’t completely exempt from this criticism. There were scenes where it felt like they were merely reciting dialogue rather than genuinely embodying their characters.
The Pacing:
This is very much a slow-burn romance. The first six EPs are dedicated to Suer’s melancholic longing as he admires Nao from afar. Then the final two EPs rush through most of the romantic payoff, from their transition into a confession to becoming an official one.
Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed the story and had no issue with the slow-burn approach itself. However, I couldn’t help but feel that we need more scenes after they officially got together. A couple of moments would have significantly increased the enjoyment factor and made the emotional payoff more rewarding.
Final Thoughts:
Winter serves as an effective metaphor for Suer’s six years of patience before finally confessing to Dao. He endured the emotional coldness of one-sided love and uncertainty for years, waiting for the right moment. In a way, the cold never really bothered him.

5th stories
Final part of Fourever You… Let’s discuss drama…The story follows Tiger, the youngest son of a powerful and wealthy family. Growing up in the shadow of his family's chaotic, mafia-adjacent background, Tiger has always felt deeply lonely, guarded, and reckless, avoiding meaningful relationships out of fear that trusting others will only lead to disappointment or danger.
Everything changes during high school football tryouts when he crosses paths with Dueannao (Nao), a talented, fiercely independent newcomer. Their relationship gets off to a rocky start, literally ending in a physical altercation after a misunderstanding over Nao's nickname. However, as they compete for the position of football team captain, their intense rivalry gradually evolves into an unbreakable friendship.
Unlike Tiger, Nao is optimistic, warm-hearted, and cheerful despite enduring years of hardship alongside his twin brother and mother. Even after learning the truth about Tiger's family "business," Nao continues to treat him like an ordinary person rather than the heir to a powerful family. Nao's unwavering kindness becomes a shield against Tiger's cold and lonely world, even welcoming Tiger into his home and making him feel like part of the family.
Before long, Tiger realizes that the simple moments he shares with Nao have become the happiest memories of his life. What begins as admiration slowly blossoms into love, but Tiger keeps his feelings hidden, afraid that a confession might destroy the precious friendship they have built.
As they prepare to leave high school and begin a new chapter at university. The question rises:
? How long can Tiger hide his feelings for Nao? Especially when a girl confesses her love to Nao right before they depart for university.
? Is this the end of their friendship as they know it?
? Will Tiger find the courage to successfully confess his feelings, or
? Will Tiger bury his feelings forever and settle for being Nao's best friend?
That's pretty much the story without giving anymore spoilers.
What I like:
+ As usual, they quite fit the book. Yeah it’s kinda boring & the Weakest story from the series. But this is actually just the extra story from the 4 main couples.
+ They choose a different actor for Nao & his twin, Dannue (Dan).
What I don’t too like:
- The story focuses too much on high school…. We don’t get to see too much about their university years when the love and their relationship start to become interesting…
Overall I am really happy I can see this series…

Mh
Devo dire che questa (voi per il format o vuoi per la storia) è stata la storia che meno mi è piaciuta della cinque. Sono onesta nel dire che anche se la storia di Tiger e Nao era carina, probabilmente sono stata più interessata alla storia di Leo e Ben e in generele ad alcune delle storie secondarie. Detto ciò, hjo già detto alcune delle modifiche che avrei fatto quando ho commentato la storia completa (per come sono state divise e tutto). Detto ciò, parlando nello specifico di questa storia, devo dire che avrei preferito di parecchio che questa si concentrasse un pelino meno sulla parte delle superiori e un po' di più su quella dell'università. Questo più che altro perché la seconda parte di questa storia mi è sembrata un pelo troppo velocizzata, invece avrei fatto o 4 e 4 o 3 e 5 sempre rispetto all'univerisità. Detto qyesto la storia è carina, pesante, però forse meno rispetto alle altre (dal punto di vista dei traumi, anche se anche qui non è che ce ne scampiamo) e la ho trovata comunque per l'appunto molto piacevole. Detto questo leggetevi l'altra per completare la recensione.Was this review helpful to you?
Cute series
Another series that I haven't read the novel yet, so the story really excited me. I didn't expect most of what happened. I also have a bit of a bias since this is part of the Fourever You Project. Hehe.First, I wish we got to see more of Mafia Tiger. I really wanted that aspect to be highlighted more. The pacing somehow felt both slow and fast at the same time. Maybe 8 episodes just isn't enough to fully cover an FY novel. The acting still has room for improvement, but the casting was great. Plus points for finding an actor to play Nuea who could actually pass as Golf/Nao's twin brother.
Overall, this is still a cute series, and I'd definitely recommend giving it a watch.

It's good watch
Although, personally, I didn't feel the sparks on the mls, (I see spark with Dan and Tiger, call me crazy). BUT it's enjoyable to watch as their acting executed the series so well.Like the 4 installments, there's lot missing from novel, but I do not hold that against, but rather applaud how they executed this well with limited production. Just hope that this is not treated like extra of Fourever you, as it has charm on it's own. Truly.

So Cute!
The series has been so cute!! I love series like this. The interconnected stand-alone series type like sure it might not be nessisary to watch them all in order but it makes it much more enjoyable and there might be little things that comes up that you might not catch if you havent seen the others.Was this review helpful to you?

Yearner final boss
This is probably the only fourever series for which I hadn't read the novel so my review is solely based on the series. I absolutely loved the fluff overload and yearning I got with this one🤭🤭. At first I was like why are we even getting this when we saw their story in season 1 but when I watched it I was like "totally worth it". I really loved all the couples. The mafia brothers kinda reminded me of our Arseni brothers with the downbadism. I really wanted to see more of SinghaBen but i get it for 8 episodes and 3 other couples they did what they could.The only sad thing for me was that FieldDan didn't get a happy ending. That man liked Dan wayy before Tiger liked Nao so I kinda feel he deserved a happy ending. Anyways enjoyed it and will miss our doc and princess gang

LOVE THIS VER MUCH!
This series was so good If you want a slow burn romance well this series is for you. The actors are also so good looking and good at acting.Loved the plot and the story I still can't believe this is the end for the multi-couple series fourever you. I love the fact that this is the last story that couples the fourever you series. Thank you for this masterpiece.
I'll miss HillEaster, JohanNorth, TonfahTyphoon, ArthitDaotok, and TigerDueannao 😭😔😍🥰

Just Finished the Series
This is my first review and one of the main reason is that I just read a review that said this is the weakest arc. I completely disagree. This was one of my favorite arcs and it felt the most complete without weird gaps or anything. We really get to see the MC fall in love it’s wonderful. Maybe it’s because I relate with the Tiger character who fell for my best friend. But overall, really enjoyed it. None of the arcs were perfect, but I’m really starting to find the stories by this company to be better than GMMTV (recently). I noticed myself watching series from there because I like the pair more than liking the story. No shade though— I like em all but still, back to this series. I really enjoyed it. I thought the acting was good. There are two things I wished they had expanded on and one thing I wish hadn’t come off the way it did but I felt the same with Arthit and Dao. Loved their slow burn arc and then a moment hurt that series but I just pretend it didn’t happen 😂. But yes, this pairing with Nao and Tiger won me over. Fun fact— I also learned I work at the same university Tiger went to school at :) I’m two for two since my last job was where Book from GMMTV went to HS.Was this review helpful to you?
Romance manquée...
Le tigre s'est fait malmener par le mignon chaton dans une histoire qui a loupé son démarrage, préférant s'ancrer dans le passé plutôt que de se concentrer sur le présent.Pourquoi tant d'épisodes sur leur amitié ? Un épisode suffit pour reprendre les grandes lignes et débuter l'histoire dans le présent. Avec un tel choix, leur romance ne débute qu'à l'avant-dernier épisode, et encore, c'est seulement parce que Tiger ne laisse pas le choix à Nao. En effet, soit il devient son petit ami, soit ils ne sont plus amis.
Certes, c'est une histoire mignonne et facile, mais les promesses ne sont pas tenues. Je ne peux pas m'empêcher de repenser au plaisir de découvrir le pilot, à ma grimace lors de la sortie du trailer et à ma déception devant chaque épisode. Choisir de s'attarder sur le passé et l'amitié nuit à la romance. Malgré quelques bons moments, la série se perd dans des scènes longues et un récit qui progresse trop tardivement.
En bref, Lately, It's Winter Season sacrifie sa romance pour vivre dans le passé.
