The Hours of My Life

A summer hit in HK, this romantic fantasy from Jingle Ma is shamelessly manipulative, incredibly cheesy, and totally sappy. It goes to extreme lengths to yank your chains and push your buttons...and it works. Amazingly, this manufactured piece of sap is also an entertaining, compelling movie. An HK version of Ghost and Always, Fly Me to Polaris stars Richie Ren as Onion, a blind-mute who’s in love with his nurse Autumn (Cecilia Cheung). Before any feelings can be exchanged, he dies in a Meet Joe Black kinda way and proceeds to win a celestial contest. This flimsy plot device states he can have one wish - which he uses to live again. They deny him that, but give him the opportunity to return for one week.

Both show the rediscovery and appreciation for the little things in life while going through the last moments of one's life.

Shogo is left blind and mute from an accident but he is able to live a fruitful life as a composer. He receives ongoing therapy from the hospital where nurse Kana works. Just when their relationship is about to blossom into romance, tragedy strikes when Shogo is killed in a car accident. At the moment of Shogo's death, a shooting star falls and gives him the chance to live again for four more days. But he is unrecognizable to his friend and forbidden to reveal his true identity. Shogo decides to express his feelings of affection to Kana.

Both dramas has lead who are faced with an illness. The drama revolves how they cope with their illness and live with it. An inspirational journey.

Takabayashi Matsuri learns that she only has 10 years to live due to an incurable disease. She decides to not dwell on her life and not to fall in love, but she meets Manabe Kazuto at a school reunion.

~~ Adapted from the novel "Yomei 10 Nen" by Kosaka Ruka

Both are about a person who has only few years to live........................................................................

Both about making use of what little time they've left in their life, and they discover love and dreams.

Taiyou no Uta might be a little more on the dream chasing part, it is a beautiful movie about hopes and dreams nonetheless, one of those heart warming drama as you follow the character's growth, and you discover precious things in life with them. Both lead are strong characters who works hard to fight for the time they have, to make something out of their lives.

Both are about a terminally ill boy. Both are very similar..............................................................................

Well, both the leads are suffering from a terminal disease in their respective dramas, in this way I think Boku no Ita Jikan can be recommended.

Tearjerkers.

Both are melodramas about people finding love while dealing with a devastating illness. Precious Time (1998) is a classic and is one of the best romance dramas produced. It features international superstar, Kaneshiro Takeshi. Don't avoid it due to subject matter. It has an uplifting ending. Boku no ita Jikan is more difficult to watch.

Both have really emotional and great stories. BIG TEAR jerkers but also many happy memories, Also both ML end up having to use wheelchair.

Similar in many ways. But this is Korean drama
So the similarity is:-
In both male lead suffering from terminal illness that leads him to death.
Both dramas give strong feelings after the end
Genres:- Comedy, Romance, Drama, Melodrama
Tags:- Nice male lead, Strong female lead, Family relation, Love confession

Both lead have unfortunate illness. Struggle to live. Dark inside. Struggle to survive. Live for the love one. Inteoverted.

Physical illness. Last wish. Physical handicap. Friendship. Heartwarming movie. Family and friends around. Dignity.
