Both FLs are mermaids who come ashore and fall in love with the reincarnation of the ML who they were in love with in ancient times.

Time travel. Both strong male lead. Was a high rank profession at some point. Sweet cute, roller coaster journey.

The story line and the genre is completely different. But there are aspects that are similar. For example the reincarnation aspect. Both are used in both dramas.
Recommended by Drama Freak
While in itself being quite different ( Mermaid mystery vs. BL drama) they both share a plot of reincarnation and rediscovering the past memories and the hidden conspiracies around their past selves. I really love both of them a lot and rewatched them several times. If you are looking for something fresh and fluffy, check them out!

Although the premise of both are different. The dynamics and situations are quite similar.
-The FL’s in both dramas are very naive and their personalities are quite the same. They don’t understand the human world and tend to act very strange and out of place.
-Both FL’s are away from their normal home
- The ML’s try to act annoyed at the FL’s but very protective over them.
-The FL’s are both very clingy
-Supernatural elements
- human and non human relationship
-living together
-FL’s both kinda change the ML’s
-FL’s are both hilarious in this and very outgoing.

Both have a practical, just trying to make a living , a bit of a con artist/unscrupulous ML and an eccentric, whimsical always sticking her foot in it FL.

Conspiracy elements, and family elements overlap as well.

Legend of the Blue Sea is a bit more even in tone and a wee bit more of a fantasy element . . .

Eu comparativo ao amor de beluga pelo ser humano, tem um ser humano apaixonado por uma sereia.
As duas tramas são bem parecidas sendo que Mar Azul fala sobre problemas entre a escolha de ficar com o ser humano e ser uma sereia ou Tritão.

Both ML are con artists
MFC is way much more fun! If you like dramas with con artists, MFC is true hidden germ, worthy to enjoy and laugh a lot :o)

Plots of both stories are really similar. Both are about unfortunate love in Joeson era that repeats again in our time to have happy ending. There is a little of fantasy also: mysterious time travelling in Rooftop Prince, and mermaids in Legend of the Blue Sea. Main characters have troubles adapting to modern world. And after all both series have charming love story.

Their both comedy's and romances <3 They both show love between human and mermaid's. Comedy moments were awesome, and romantic moments were alluring.

Both shows have Shin Hye Sun though LOTBS was before SHS became a lead actress. Both shows are time travel fantasy romances where good eventually triumph over evil.
Recommended by DLKDramaFan
Both are dramas that involve a pair of lovers whose story ended tragically in history. Now they are reincarnated and reunited in present day, but one has a completely different personality.
Recommended by emeraldarrows
Both are about the relationship between a human and a mermaid/merman who they end up living with.
