Both of them follow life during the korean war between soilders and citizens/kids.
Both use a creative outlet ,
Swing kids uses tap dancing.
A melody to remember uses singing, choir.
Both also don't use romance to overshadow the story.
Theres a lot more similarities but not many i can give away without spoilers but both movies are amazing and worth a watch.

Two movies that involve children without parents, abused and used. In both movies there is a person that tries to protect them.

- Both are 2 of the most beautiful, touching war movies you will ever come across!
- Both movies are masterfully created with top-notch acting. (The acting in Tae Guk Gi is insanely good I've never seen any better in any other movie honestly)
- Strong and heartfelt sibling relationships in both. In Tae Guk Gi, there are 2 brothers who deeply care for eachother instead of a brother and a sister.

Both have themes of children (orphans) learning to survive in a war-torn country. A Melody to remember offers a bit more in story than Boys Don't Cry.
