The difference between 気がすすまない and 不承不承
When I looked up the dictionary, they both have the meaning of "reluctant".

I wonder if the two words are interchangeable. If not, can you give me some examples how are they used differently?

Thanks in advanced.

Answer

不承不承is like it's a thing you are unwilling to do always. 気が進まないis like you are not in the mood of doing something now or today or ....  eg 1　歌うのが苦手けど、周りの人から強く求められて、不承不承と歌った。　eg2 毎日日本語を４時間勉強しているが、今日はあんまり気が進まないので、勉強しなかった。

Answer

Sophia's answer is pretty much correct.  I'd just add that 不承不承 isn't quite as common, and that 気が進まない is usually used as a sentence predicate whereas 不承不承 is used as an adverb.
