The Light in Your Eyes

Just like Lost, TLIYE represents the elements of regret, hope and failure as well. Though both series are different in terms of subject, but they both deals with failures, disappointments, unrequited pursuits, and lost happiness, they were able to find at the end.

Lost and Nooni Bushige is also similar, because characters of both show deals with the pain, hardships and struggle of life.

In order to save her father from an accident, 25-year-old Kim Hye Ja uses a mysterious watch to rewind time in an attempt to prevent the accident, but fails. Desperate, she ends up rewinding the watch too many times and accidentally ages herself, becoming a 70 year old.

Confused and oblivious as to how she ended up like this, she sets out on a journey to put everything back on track. Along the way, she encounters her family and friends who no longer recognize her, including Lee Joon Ha, a young man she loved, who yearns for her while struggling with his life.

When 70 year old Kim Hye Ja and the young Lee Joon Ha come together to form an unlikely bond, a devastating and life-turning truth is revealed, the crux of all the time she lost.

- both have a theme/storyline around healing, healing, healing
- definite tearjerker
- also centers around family relationships (very complicated family relationships) and friendships
- plotwists!
- romance
- overall both stories that you wish you could watch for the first time again!

Beautiful friendships, strong females, and thought-provoking scenarios. Also, both are slice-of-life genre.

concept is same that young female lead is suddenly turned to old
due to different reasons !!!
both are fun to watch and have deep feelings!!

I haven't watched Chocolate yet so I might have to return to revise this recommendation eventually, but from the preview and reviews it reminds me a lot of Dazzling. Of what it kept its characters afloat (for instance, eating was always emotional) and also of its flaws (development much too slow, tropes all about—the plot was weak compared to the characters—and a focus on older people or death).

The focus relationship is between a young people and older people. They both have a similar dark reality concept that really makes you feel for the characters.
