This is, by far, my one of the closest recommendations for WIFTY:
- The male lead is a green flag, always helping the female lead.
- The girl develops feelings for the guy first, but he falls even harder.
- It follows their journey from high school to college.
- The setting is shot beside the ocean, providing a calming atmosphere.
- The OSTs are nice.
- The names of the main male lead and second lead are mixed up.
- It features a slow burn love story.
However, it lacks:
- The strong friendship dynamic present in WIFTY. Most of the female lead's friends are girls, and they don't show much bonding between them.
- The inclusion of family life in the end.
- Unlike WIFTY, they face major problems in their careers and love lives.
- There are love triangles.
- It lacks proper kissing scenes. (because the FL is too young when they shoot this)
- It is quite long with 32 episodes.
If you've finished all of the recommended dramas, there's nothing wrong with giving this one a try. Maybe it will be to your taste after all.

Similarities:
- High school coming of age drama with themes such as first love, studying, exploring family issues
- Follows a gang of friends who grow and enjoy life together while being students
- Friends that go on trips together (ex: beach trip and going on little getaways)
- FL (cheongah and zaizai) fall for ML first, and are generally very quiet and shy in front of ML, and ML develops feelings for FL later
- Slow burn romance plots pretty much all throughout both shows, including in both main and side couples
Differences:
- Twinkling Watermelon has time travel involved, and heavy focus on music, and includes non-hearing characters
- When I Fly Towards you follows the characters from high school to after high school and is more focused on the development of romance and friendship between the main characters, while Twinkling Watermelon is highly centered around the ML's relationship with his parents, as well as his friendships he fosters after time traveling.
