nam joo hyuk dramas where he falls in love with a sportswoman.
although wfkbj has a lot more satisfying ending.

both are romcoms with similar kind of humour although wfbkj is a lot toned down compared to lr.
the male leads also have similar kind of energy- the cute energetic "losers" in love. also they are/were both swimmers.

- unfortunate circumstances force the leads away
- they reunite and rekindle their romance
- angsty performances by both mls and fls
- melancholic fl with strong performances by the actresses
- slow burn romance
- none of the cute/childish schtick by the fl if you're not into that
- leads are loyal to each other despite the heartbreaks
- lengthy shows which take their sweet time to get into the romance aspect but are worth the time.

- fell in love during school days
- fl breaks up with ml because of unfortunate circumstances
- leads reunite years later (second chance romance)
- midnight rain fl and sunshine ml
- slow burn romance
