Our Secret

Aihara Kotoko finally becomes Irie Kotoko. Her life will be full of changes as she wants to become nurse and help her husband Naoki, but also she will face struggles of marriage life.

Both are romances in a school setting. The main couple are deskmates, with the MLs very smart and good students who help the FL who is worse at her studies. Both progress from school to adulthood.

This drama is like combination of “a love so beautiful” & “our secret”.
These are 5 people of friendship too like “a love so beautiful”

Xiang Qin and Zhi Shu switch to medical school to become nurse and doctor respectively. During that time, Zhi Shu meets new rivals who wish to outdo him and Xiang Qin makes four new friends, and one of them likes her and wishes to replace Zhi Shu. How will their married life turn out to be?

After an earthquake destroys Xiang Qin's house, she and her father move in with the family of her father's college buddy. To her surprise, her new kind and amicable aunt and uncle are the parents of her cold and distant schoolmate, Jiang Zhi Shu, a genius with an IQ of 200 who, not too long ago, rejected her after she confessed her feelings for him. Will the close proximity give her a second chance to win Zhi Shu's heart? Or will her love for him end under his cold words?

Both dramas have a school setting and similar vibes.

Our Secret is top tier but somehow Our Beloved Summer immediately reminds me of Our Secret from the start. High school to adulthood and how they grow and face relationship challenges. Their breakup also due to the same reason, family struggle. Overall, both are beautiful love stories.

Both of the couples are deskmates in school, the MLs are intelligent and a bit cold but quietly loves the FL. The FLs are a poorer student and helped out by the ML.

Both dramas have a school setting with a smart, colder ML and a FL who follows him to college.
