Dark and depressing. Romance. Female lead struggle with poverty, has an elderly lady in the household. Handicap, prominent male lead,

in both movies there was that sadness feeling , and both of them were cinematically beautiful and calm .

Love story about ML who is blind & FL who is deaf but they found love in each other. I really enjoy melodrama romance movie or dramas.

Love story about ML who is blind & FL who is deaf but they found love in each other. They support & understanding each other I really enjoy melodrama romance movie or dramas.

even so the atmosphere in josee is sadder but the story of both of them are sad , there are beautiful nature scenes in both , the cinematography of both of them is so beautiful .

Both have FLs with disabilities who have been living their lives on their own. A chanced meeting with our MLs is where our stories start. Repeated encounters with the MLs wanting to 'help' the FLs, have both the couples falling in love. The leads in both the stories are broken on a certain level, and they find new purpose through their relationships. Both stories see the relationships fade out eventually, and the FLs overcome their disabilities eventually, to different capacities.
However Always is more action/ plot- heavy, whereas Josee is more somber, and quietly philosophical. Also, both stories have Japanese counterparts (Always is the original, whereas Josee is the remake of a japanese movie of the same name)
Ps. It's fun to find similar scenes in both movies! :D

Josee has the same lead actors as the light in your ayes and also has parts where you wonder what is real and what is not. Both deal with disability in one way or another however the light in your ayes is more direct and has an ending that is not up for interpretation.

A small city on the outskirts of Seoul. Young Seok, a university student nearing graduation, comes across a woman in the street who has fallen from her wheelchair and helps her back home. She ends up feeding him a simple meal, and he develops a vague curiosity for this woman who introduces herself as "Josée". From this time on, Young Seok occasionally stops by Josée's house, receiving free meals and getting to know this woman who reads a lot, has a comprehensive knowledge of whiskey and tells him stories which he's not sure are true. Gradually, they come to share an unforgettable love.

The female lead on both movie were introverted. Social phobia. Stay to self. Poverty. Live with an older lady. Romace were cute and heartwarming

I found the atmosphere and writing to be quite similar to each other. They're both about people finding solace and happiness in each other and finding their footing in life.

An elementary school teacher named Takano Takayuki who is gradually losing his ability to see tries to hide this fact from his girlfriend Yoko. She eventually discovers the truth and immediately flies home from Mongolia to to comfort him.

Both female lead unfortunately having illness handicaps struggling with life. Male lead struggle to stay support. Very beautiful couple, beautiful movie indeed

The female lead knowing self having illness. Even thought they strongly in love with the male lead, they have the physical disadvantage. The male lead stay supportive, but
