Both are nostalgic, bittersweet dramas revolving around the lives of the families that live in a neighborhood, following the kids from high school to working life. Both have a love triangle where the "endgame" ML is introduced more like the SML, with the FL having a long term crush or friendship with the other ML. Both of the couples get together in the final episode after years of him having a one-sided crush on the FL.
Both dramas have a warm feel, a school setting, and an enemies/frenemies to lovers relationship between the main couple. FL likes someone else who only sees her as a friend. The ML in both seemingly picks on the FL who is annoyed by him, but when he starts to fall for her he falls hard and must try to get her to see him as more than a friend.
