Original manga turned movie turned drama starring Higashide Masahiro & Honda Tsubasa....I kind of like the movie. I also recommend Strobe Edge by same manga/comic book artist.
Both involve two people who used to like each other in the past and after meeting again after a long time, feelings start to develop again.

Time is a woman's enemy. On her 30th birthday, Cheng You Qing received an e-mail from Li Da Ren, her male best friend of 14 years, about the symptoms of premature aging. Unable to bear the fact that, as a man, Li Da Ren is likened to a fine wine that gets better with age and that as a woman, she is likened to a grape that will dry up like a raisin over time, she makes a bet with him to see who will marry first before they turn 35.
As she scouts for a potential husband, she finds that despite whoever she meets, there is always one person whom she can be totally at ease with and who is willing to put up with her independent, ill-tempered and stubborn personality - her best friend, Li Da Ren.
The only problem is that the both of them had already sworn to each other that they would never fall in love with each other.

Both "Love relationship" (drama) and "Enoshima Prism" (Movie) feature Honda Tsubasa, Fukushi Sota and Nomura Shuhei as the main characters. Even though time traveling is not a thing in the drama, the characters have the same relationship and personalities. Enoshima Prism could pretty much be a special to Love relationship.
What would it be like... if you had to organise your ex's wedding? Risa and her gang of close friends—Jan and Offy—are wedding planners on the brink of bankruptcy tasked with orchestrating an extravagant wedding for Risa's ex Arun and Monica who've travelled from India with an enormous entourage of relatives. When, to complicate matters, she's forced to recruit her other ex Tim as the wedding photographer, this wedding is set for turmoil.
If you liked the set up of the first episode with the tease of the wedding, and then a whole drama about figuring out who the husband is then the Reply series is for you. Reply 1988 focuses more on the husband hunt and heavily dropping hints. Love Relationship is much more mellow in that aspect and just lets you enjoy the ride (the progression of the narrative is in a relatively chronological order, while Reply 1988 bounces a lot between the past and the present or the future.) In Reply 1988 both of the male leads are friends, much like in Love Relationship, but are far more closer imo (they're true bffs, while in Love Relationship I feel like the screenwriters failed to portray closeness & the supposed friendship between male leads). If you like slow-burn romance then this drama is for you: with 20 episodes and most episodes extending into 1 and half hour mark, it's a long ride you're gonna enjoy. That being said, don't be afraid of the length of the episodes! Reply 1988 is so much more than just first love; it's also about friendships and family. The main cast is large and each get their own story so you'll have plenty to enjoy!~
