As you can see "import", "# aaaa" string is little similar.

Unfortunately, you'll need to add another color scheme and then set up your profiles to use that color scheme.
Like this:

{
    // all my settings ...
    "schemes": [
        {
            "name": "CatCatCatDog's Theme",
            // "white", red, black, blue, ...
        }
    ],
    // more settings
    "profiles": [ { . . .
        "colorScheme": "CatCatCatDog's Theme",
    } ],
}

I think, this is not colorScheme setting problem.
I changed Windows terminal command color, such as blue color.
But, If i open Python file with vim, 'import' string is not change.
I think, this is bug something. I tried many time, but, i can't changed color.

I have looked closer. It appears that vim is using its own color scheme. This is a thing that text-mode applications are allowed to do. You will want to look at your vim settings.
