The First Frost (2025)

Similarities:
-FL and Ml get separated in their childhood , then reunite later in life with some grudge and things to talk it out
- FL family in both are shitty (one would say TFF FL family is worse) and are the reason why they got separated
- FL and Ml destined together
- yearning component ?

sadly this is just a movie not a drama but it is really good, the chemistry is crazy. and the male lead is a green flag too, both suffered in the past

Fl is shy, ML is calm in both dramas.
Both ML are green flag
In both dramas there is no breakup and the main couples are too sweet.
They will give you butterflies every time.
Both dramas have happy ending.

If you like The First Frost vibe (slow and deep) then you have to watch The Forbidden Flower. Also similar to have some kinda trauma and etc. (YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT)

Stars Edward Chen. I started watching The First Frost and wanted to rewatch Lesson in Love where I fell in love with Edward Chen. In The First Frost he is a supporting character and not as good of a role for him, but, still I got to see him.

Again fl with mental health issues, fl lost someonesh loves, ml and fl meet after years, and they were friends in Highschool

They have the same tortured female lead that life goes hard on and are resilient about it. The story involves the ML loving from a far unconditionally and doing everything they can to make the female lead life better even without them knowing.

#people who had feeling for each other before and meet again
# male lead loved female lead forever but did not say it until they meet again as adults
#male lead is a green flag

fl lead with mental health issues, and ml basically worships her, he loves her like breathing but the first frost is even more, he can not live without her

I don't why this show so low rated. It's really good one. I recommend this because it bit of similar to the first frost. ML seriously love with FL and chasing till end with true love. As well as they have cute childhood scenes. Only difference FL is older than ML lead. Buts it has mostly realistic scenes are their. In my opinion it definitely deserves 8.7+ rating. Good show it is.

Second chance romance.
Breakup during High School days and got back tgt again 6-7 years later.
no 3rd parties - ML and FL only have eyes for each other

- leads reunited years later after seperation
- alternates between past and present timelines
- both were each other's first love
- melodramatic and angsty
- second chance romance
