When the Weather Is Fine (2020)

In both dramas the protagonists returns to the countryside/hometown. Each story is wrapped in a strong sense of community and the protagonists find a way to a "better self" in the warm environment the community brings.

Both dramas have gentle and warm male leads who love books but have deep scars in their hearts.
The dramas have a similar feel with the script and acting. WTWIF is a slower burn slice of life romance but has a calming and sweet vibe to it, where MAW is a fantasy romcom with a cuter and more lively vibe.

Both are about the female lead returning to their home town and ultimately finding love with a former classmate. Very heartwarming, simple, mature, and just plain beautiful love stories.

Im Eun sub's character remind me of Park Dong Hoon in My Mister. both of them look kind of lost in the world full of loud people. an d trough the story we come to know them and their thoughts and this is so calming. both drama deal with deep sadness yet you come out of them with a feeling of being healed.

Although the stories are drastically different, they have the same slow-burn, melodramatic ambience that centers around a love story.

FL goes back to hometown to take a break from city life.... the setting is small village but during winter season.

-The leads knew each other as teens, after a family trauma resulted in the FL moving to a small town to live with her grandmother and aunt. When the FL moves back as an adult following a workplace incident, she begins working at the ML’s bookstore near her home.
-Their feelings grow from friendship to something more.
-Slowburn.

They have the same feeling for me. It's slice of life, really developing a lot of townspeople characters. A main through line is slowly healing from repeated trauma in the countryside, Both also deal with hidden pasts.

Slow and gentle romance, a bookstore/library setting, slice-of-life focus and pacing, great cinematography with a focus on landscapes and the aesthetic of daily life, a mellow soundtrack with emotive stringed instruments.

From troubled and trauma filled main leads to trying and underestimated female leads these 2 are like enantiomers. The way they both progressed in a slow but peaceful manner and the warm encounters throughout the way is so despicably similar and the best thing in common -murder-. definitely give come and hug me a chance if you enjoyed when the weather is fine. even their titles make a complete sentence.-when the weather is fine, come and hug me-

Both dramas offer the same calm and romantic winter vibe.
When I started watching the first love it reminded me of 'when the weather is fine',
especially when playing past story of them.

Both are slower-paced, romance-focused stories set in small towns with a strong emphasis on establishing and developing characters within the tiny communities. The side characters add depth to the plot, but also get interesting storylines on their own.

Both have winter settings with melo and calming feels. The main couple also met in highschool, then separated and reunited again.

Both are set in winter and located in a snowy town in the countryside. They revolve around a warm store where people gather and discuss their life. They are centered around the owner of the store. Both are slow-paced with meditative, quite and peaceful atmosphere.

They capture the everyday life of the people in the countryside and discuss similar themes on family, relationships, love, loneliness and healing.

Although definitively different shows, there is a slice of life feel to both (much more present in HP). Primarily, the scenes in WTWIF that focus on the village and its people reminded me of the scenes in HP where we see the doctors and patients in the hospital interacting with each other in a way that isn't fully "necessary" to the overall plot. Both shows have a very calming effect while still dealing with heavy topics.
