Spirit Fingers

Both stories are about a cheerful man pursuing the love of a woman who is withdrawn or has low self-esteem.

Both are light-hearted, fluffy dramas with a mix of comedy and high school romance. Both have adorable, FL-obsessed MLs who fumble with their first loves. Love Revolution is a perfect watch while waiting for Spirit Fingers to finish airing.

- both have a fl who starts off by having a crush on an older guy that's kind, mature (compared to the ml) and already likes a girl his age
- both have fls that are not seen as conventionally attractive
- both mls have similar personalities
- production/cinematography are similar in both shows
- both delve into the romance of the older characters

- both have art as a central theme and as a medium to connect the characters
- both have a large and eccentric group of friends
- both create this sense of community/found family
- both have multiple couples and romance plots

Both dramas centre around maneuvering through the awkward teen years with lots of humour sprinkled in, including dealing with self-image issues, crushes, family drama and unintentional (and often hilarious) self-sabotage.

Both of these dramas are silly lighthearted Romcoms with similarities in:
— Famous model ML and academic with glasses FL
— Playful and silly ML who is adorable
— Over the top comedy
— Although the focus is on the leads the side characters also shine

1. Same soft, youthful vibe

Both dramas have that warm, cute, colorful energy that makes you feel comfy just watching.
No toxic stuff, no heavy drama — just “awww vibes.”

? 2. Wholesome slow-burn romance

Spirit Fingers has that calm, sweet, slow-building love story.
Dear M does the SAME: meaningful looks, little moments, and soft chemistry.

? 3. A friend group that feels like family

Spirit Fingers has the artsy squad.
Dear M has the dorm/university squad.
In both, you feel like you’re hanging out with them — real friendship, real chaos, real support.

? 4. Pretty, clean aesthetic

Spirit Fingers is more artsy, but Dear M ALSO has soft colors, cozy settings, and that webtoon-style vibe.

? 5. Warm feeling

Both dramas give you that “I feel safe watching this” energy.
No stressful plot — just comfort.

? 6. Cute, lovable characters

Neither show relies on toxic people.
The characters are sweet, relatable, and just trying their best.

? 7. Romance that grows slowly

Just like Ki-geong and Woo-yeon’s soft beginning, Dear M’s couples develop slowly, naturally, and in a super adorable way.

Bro, that’s why Dear M is one of the closest vibes to Spirit Fingers out there ??
If you want, I can tell you which Dear M characters match the Spirit Fingers characters ??

This has a bit more adult theme and its Japanese but I do find few similarities based on vibes. It's about learning more about yourself.
The main female character is very shy and introverted but slowly learns to stand up for herself due to the support of the male lead and her friends.
They are both very fiction-ly. As in they both have a very unrealistic way of reactions similar to that of webtoons and mangas with animations and vfx with over-exaggerated reactions to situations. And the unrealistic club spirit fingers similar to the group of very unique women in princess jellyfish. One is about drawing and the other is about fashion.

Both are slice of life, the main character finds their confidence throughout the story, the main couples have the same vibes.

"Spirit fingers" and "Our beloved summer" are both live-action adaptation of webtoons created by Han Kyoung Chal

Yoon Chan Young and Park Ji Hu are main leads in All of us are dead. Bong Jae Hyun and Choi Bo Min are members of Golden child. So main leads have similar energy.
