Are there any Japanese Dramas like You're Beautiful (Korean) or Heartstrings? (Koreans)?

Question

I loved both korean dramas, because they're rom-coms and reolve around music, which I absolutely love. But, there aren't many k-dramas that revolve around music and at the same time, romantic comedy. the only ones I know of are You're Beautiful, Heartstrings and Dream High. I haven't watched Dream High yet but are there any Japanese Dramas like these?

Answer 1

I know one japanese drama that's similar to You're Beautiful which is called Hana Kimi where the girl goes to an all guys school and she pretends to be a guy to save her idol athlete. There's a kdrama called Coffee Prince and Sungkyunkwan Scandal where the girl pretends to be a guy like You're Beautiful/ Hana Kimi. In Coffee Prince its because the girl there needs money and the place where she can get a lot of money only hires guys and in Sungkyunkwan Scandal the girl wants to go to an all guy school and it was when girls weren't treated equivalent to men.Sorry I watch mostly kdramas.



P.S. Dream High is really good the ost is great, hello there's 5 korean idols as the main stars lmao.

Answer 2

Some rom-com/musical dramas would be:







KOREAN:



-The Musical (new and wonderful drama that revolves around music, great actors)

-Dream High (good for dancing lovers, didn't like the main couple though)

-Mary Stayed Out All Night (Loved, very romantic storyline, hot actors)

-I Am Legand (good drama, about a female band member who pretends marriage with a top star)

-Beethoven Virus (amazing drama, also about music, with Jang Geun Suk)









JAPANESE:



-Ikemen Desu Ne (japanese version of you're beautiful, really good)

-Nodame Cantable (the cutest japanese drama ever, the main character is a pianist)

-Buzzer Beat (this one has a very good storyline, the main girl character is a violanist)

-Long Vacation (wonderful drama, great actors, the main guy character is a pianist)

-Muscle Girl (the main guy character is a musical)

Answer 3

Well, there ' s Hana Kimi which is similar to You ' re Beautiful. It also deals with a girl having to conceal her identity in an all male dominated environment. Then, there ' s Nodame Cantabile, the live action one (inspired by a Japanese manga/ anime) has the 2 leads pursuing romance amidst musical aspirations. I guess you can say that it sort of similar to Heartstrings?! LoL XD.

Answer 4

Mary Stayed out all night (Music related + and same lead actor from You're beautiful, rom-com)

There's also a new drama, The Musical, but I haven't watched it yet. It's still airing.

Answer 5
