Trying to find an old nostalgic Japanese romance movie / music video — bicycle scene in Tokyo and emotional riverside ending

I saw this movie years ago through a dreamy YouTube music video edit and have been trying to find it ever since.

What I remember:

- Japanese romance/drama movie
- Looked older, not modern cinema
- Warm orange/reddish color grading
- Soft grainy nostalgic cinematography
- Setting looked like old Tokyo or an older Japanese city
- Romantic couple (man and woman, probably late 20s/30s)

Important scenes:
- The man rides a bicycle through the city while the woman sits in the front
- Emotional ending near a river/riverside embankment
- They hug and both seem to cry
- I vaguely remember red clothing in some scenes

The music in the edit was dreamy and melancholic with soft female humming vocals, which made the atmosphere feel very emotional and haunting.

If this reminds anyone of a Japanese movie, please tell me. Even partial guesses could help.

I have been trying to find this song/video for a very long time and it genuinely haunts me because of how emotional and beautiful it felt.

I originally saw it on YouTube years ago. I cannot remember the title, artist, or whether it was from a movie, drama, or an actual music video.

What I remember very clearly is the atmosphere.

The song itself was extremely dreamy, melancholic, ambient, and emotional. There were very few actual lyrics. Most of the vocals were soft female humming like:

“hmmmmmm”
“la la la”
very airy and emotional, almost lullaby-like.

It reminded me of artists like Lamp, Ichiko Aoba, or old Japanese indie/ambient music.

The visuals looked cinematic and nostalgic, possibly from an older Japanese romance movie or indie film edit.

Things I remember from the video:

- A man and woman (probably late 20s or early 30s)
- Old Tokyo or an older East Asian city vibe
- Warm reddish/orange color grading
- Soft grainy cinematography
- Slow emotional pacing
- A scene where they ride a bicycle together, with the girl sitting in front
- The woman may have been wearing red clothes
- The ending was very emotional near a river/riverside embankment
- The man comes close to the woman, they hug, and both cry

The entire video felt nostalgic, lonely, intimate, and dreamlike.

It may have been:
- an actual Japanese/Korean music video
- scenes from an old romance movie used in an edit
- a J-drama/K-drama MV
- indie ambient/shoegaze/folk music

I know this is vague, but if this reminds anyone of anything at all, please tell me. Even partial guesses could help a lot.

I’m trying to find a Japanese (or possibly Korean) music video / movie scene I once saw on YouTube.

The song was extremely dreamy and emotional, with very few actual lyrics. Most of it was soft female humming like “hmmmmm” and “la la la,” very ambient and melancholic. The whole vibe felt nostalgic, warm, and dreamlike.

What I remember from the visuals:

- It looked like old Tokyo or an older East Asian city
- A man and woman (probably around late 20s or early 30s)
- There was a scene where both were riding a bicycle together, with the girl sitting in front
- The color grading was warm/reddish/orange
- It felt like an old Japanese romance film or indie music video
- At the end, there was an emotional scene near a river or riverside embankment
- The man came close to the woman, they hugged, and both cried
- I vaguely remember the woman wearing red clothes
- The cinematography felt very soft, grainy, nostalgic, and slow

It may have been:
- an actual music video
- scenes from an old Japanese movie/drama used in an edit
- or a Korean/Japanese indie romance MV

The music reminded me of dreamy Japanese artists like Lamp, Ichiko Aoba, or similar ambient indie music.

Does this ring a bell for anyone?
