Lovely Runner

It also has time travelling and preventing accident & changing fate as its theme, also includs music & band life.

- The plot is quite similar
- FL goes back in time to save ML
- Time Travel to save their loved one

In both dramas, the female protagonist realizes that her love is destined to suffer or die, and she uses her powers or fantasy elements to try to change this tragic fate. In Lovely Runner, Im Sol travels through time to prevent the death of Ryu Sun-jae. In Head Over Heels, Park Seong-ah, a young shaman, tries to stop her first love, Bae Gyeon-woo, from facing a fatal destiny.

Both stories highlight pure love from a young age — first love — and give the feeling that "they were meant to be together." This creates a very emotionally engaging tension. In Lovely Runner, the connection between Im Sol and Sun-jae begins back in high school; in Head Over Heels, Seong-ah is described specifically as Gyeon-woo’s “first love.”

There are many fan discussions about parallel scenes: the heroine saving her beloved in life-threatening situations. Both plots blend romance, drama, and lightness. Even though the structure involves fantasy, the focus remains on emotion, destiny, and emotional bonds — always prioritizing the heart over strict logic.

A viral post comments: “It’s really giving the vibe of Lovely Runner, Head Over Heels — both dramas saving the guy that they love.”

Both were adopted from web novels.
