A funny rom-com where FL while in coma comes back in time to her college life. Great chemistry. A lovable, devoted, smart and strong ML. Intelligent and strong FL.

13. Mama Fairy and the Woodcutter
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
College professor and his assistant are traveling and stop for a coffee at a small place run by an elderly woman (same FL as Flower of Evil). She is a fairy who has had her winged cape stolen centuries ago by a woodsman who married her. She is certain the professor is the woodsman reincarnated. She follows him to Seoul and goes to work for a local godess at her coffee stand where her coffees quickly become popular with the students and faculty.
Over time some see her as a pretty young woman and others still see the granny. Very funny when she goes out with the professor.
There's a bit in the story where some of her friends travel to Seoul to check on her. You can FF through this as it doesn't add to the story and is just filler. - ShazInCA in a Reddit discussion thread 8/27/23

17. Queen Cheorin
Korean Drama - 2020, 20 episodes
Fabulous! A prestigiuos chef in trouble suffers a murder attempt falling into the water. His soul travels back in time and enters in the body of the ... near future queen of Joseon, who also had an accident and had a near death experience into the water.
You cannot imagine how weird this man will feel in a feminine body and it is really funny because the actress is more than perfect in this epic role. It is a great production, everything is fine, from photography to supporting cast, characters are lovable, plot well developed and tied up. The romance is surprisingly great, what a fabulous unexpected pairing. - u/perua4 in a Reddit discussion thread 8/27/23

19. Reset
Chinese Drama - 2022, 15 episodes
A masterpiece (slight romance), great plot and acting. China
Even if I prefer dramas with strong romantic part (this one has a light but yet a charming one) , this is now one of my most favorite chinese dramas. I have binged it like crazy and finished it recently. It has an amazing and hooking plot and outstanding cast playing. The structure of the drama showing one episode dedicated to each secondary character is also captivating. It is a time loop story. I recommend everybody to try this show.
A student enters in a time loop minutes before a bus explosion and she has to help the cops to prevent the accident in order to get out of a loop. It is a chinese production. Thriller, mystery. - u/perua4 in a Reddit discussion thread 8/27/23

24. Some Day or One Day
Taiwanese Drama - 2019, 13 episodes
One travels back to Recent past. It is an intense love story with a dream ML.
A girl whose beloved boyfriend died in an accident travels to the past to meet a guy who was identical to him.
I consider this drama a masterpiece and in consequence I find it the best time travel drama I have ever watched. Emotionally rich, it is surely one of my 2 favorite dramas ever, (where I cannot find which one wins). But be prepared to cry a river (it is not a rom-com) and be completely shaked by this touching and incredible plot with lots of twists. You must go on until the last instant of the drama to understand the ending.There is also an extra scene for the ending on Viki and YouTube that might be watched.
It is true that one important key factor that turns Someday Or One Day into a masterpiece is the plot perfectly sewn, and then this will be kept. If we create a label "Zero Misunderstanding", this drama certainly would be the winner from the modern rom-coms in mandarin, even if in the beginning I felt a little uncomfortable with FL being so stubborn. The story keeps going better and better. - u/perua4 in a Reddit discussion thread 8/27/23
