Although they have a different plotline, Kimi ga Kokoro wo Kuretakara reminds me of Lovely Runner in many ways. The same umbrella (although different colors) reference, meeting up when they are older, FL doing the "work" to save ML's life. Those kind of stuff. Anyway, the overall mood of KGKWK is much more melodramatic (despite having many crying scenes in LR too) and there is much more trauma esp in FL end.

The ML will fall into a coma, and the FL who wrote the story of the ML who is a character in his book, will enter the space time of his Novel to be able to save him and change his destiny

-time travel
-sorta time loop (ML dies no matter how much the other partner tries to save them)
-butterfly effect (future changes becoz of past actions i.e. there is only one timeline)
-chemistry is good
-romcom

Difference is that Triage a medical drama and shows a more prominent time loop and ML is able to write what happens in each while FL in LR cannot write or say anything about the future to past people.

painful past, kind of time travel but not time travel
A story of love and friendship between five high school students from Seoyeon High School.

Lee Ha Min appears like a bright person, but there is also darkness within his mind. Han So Mang is a warm-hearted person, but she is also quite timid. Lee Jae Min is a popular student with a painful past. He is kind to everyone around him. Yoon Bo Mi is a sweet, model student. Choi Jin Young loves playing games. He can seem unfriendly and has a delicate personality.

**Serendipity's Embrace** and **Lovely Runner** share some similarities, making them appealing to fans of both K-dramas. Here are a few points of comparison:

1. **Setting and Themes**:
- Both dramas use a dual timeline, featuring the characters during their high school years and as adults.
- In **Serendipity's Embrace**, there's a time-travel element involving a top star and his fan, who was also his high school crush.
- **Lovely Runner** explores the emotional rollercoaster of a rich heiress and a village boy's unhappy married life, driven by bundled-up emotions¹².

2. **Youth Romance**:
- Both series offer cozy and fluffy youth romance themes, which fans appreciate.
- The characters in both dramas are bright and deeply lovable, and their fears are relatable due to their past experiences or future uncertainties³.

While each drama has its unique twists and turns, these similarities make them enjoyable for viewers who appreciate heartfelt storytelling and emotional connections.

It is a historical fantasy drama and also has time travelling. A very underrated drama but it is bingeworthy. The ML can time travel and the chemistry between ML and FL is great as well.

Its similar as the male lead is in the entertainment industry. Male and female lead went to the same school, grew up in the same neighbourhood. The height difference. The difference is that uncontrollably fond is melo, sad and tragic , lovely runner is cute and time travelling but also sad and some type of tragic.

They are similar in the fact that they are time travel dramas that utilize a watch as the trigger for time travel. Many more similarities but watching "The Light in Your Eyes" is the key to figuring that out.
