Drama where the FL and the ML have been best friends for a long time but one of them starts to fall for the other, which of course makes everything super awkward between them. You know the kind of trope I’m talking about.

I don’t care who falls first, but I’d like it to be one sided for a while to see that angst until the other person finally realizes they’re in love too (happy endings only pls :’D)

So I predominantly watch Kdrama, so these are my suggestions:

Also additionally, a Jdrama that popped up in my head is Dear sister **** but it's not very romance focused...

All of these have a happy ending and fit the "friends to lovers" trope... I don't like all of these, in fact my personal favorite ones are in bold letters, but you might have different tastes ^.^

PS: I'll mark with "****" the ones I remember/know that fit the "one sided for a while + awkwardness" requirement to  some extent... it's not that the others don't, I just don't really remember or know
