Nagi no Oitoma (2019)

If Nagi is the spirit animal for people who are trying to fit in, then Aikawa Kazuki is the one for those who want to get the approval of others. Both have slice of life vibe and an inspiring theme. God damn why jdramas so beautiful.

calm, life-loving really charming show. Beautiful characters that will learn to value what's important in life. don't be fooled by the 1st episode which was quite confusing ; it's not a workplace show !

They both contained this theme of ikigai and reboot. In the attempt to find a new start both of the main characters decided to move to a more rural place and starts to learn more about themselves.

These two TBS dramas are definitely cousins!
Both are slice-of-life dramas that address the modern malaise of trying to find your place in a world where you don't quite fit in, all while navigating the ups and downs of love and life.
In both dramas, the female lead is a quirky young woman who often over-thinks and over-analyzes situations, which sometimes puts her at odds with other characters/society. Unsatisfied with her career, she decides to make a major life change early in the drama. Both are “everyone has their own story” kind of dramas where even the most minor character is important.

I'm recommending the korean vr becasue that's all I saw. but both are about a female character who leaves her life behind and take a break to heal their souls.

I'm connecting it to the story in general. there was a scene in Honey and Clover where the male lead leaves everything behind and gets on his bike with no destination, and in Nagi no Oitoma the female lead also does that. both also had that same drive, they wanted to get away from their lives and start fresh even for a little while

1. Both are wholesome healing slice of life dramas
2. Story centered around a soft female lead who decides to take charge of her own life and to become a bit stronger
3. Different characters come together and ignite change in each other
4. Both are based in a small town rather than city-life
5. Two male leads after the same girl, one of which dated her for a long time but later breaks up (not a spoiler)
Although the ending of both is quite different and Camellia Blooms has a minor mystery/thriller touch to it too

Based solely on the synopsis, they have similar context where in the FL moved somewhere where she can be more comfortable. Also, the setting during summer.

Same directors create the a similar cozy, fluffy feeling. They're both about 30-ish career girls trying to figure out how to live their best lives as well.
