the strong bonding of the leads make me think of love O2O. they gives off the same feeling i felt during watching the love O2O couple. . they share the same mutual understanding and trust and shows us a healthy mature relationship.
they never sway by second leads whatsoever .
their relationship never felt treaten cause they were so sure about who they love and they shows at each chances they get.. shares the awsome chemistry.
*male lead falls for the girl first
*male lead act like a shield and protect the girl from her problems

Although this two dramas have very different premise, they have a lot in common.
- for starters they both meet on campus and the romance starts there
- secondly both leads have an activity they enjoy which brings them together and even closer, in the case of love o2o, it video game but in a good way, it's treasure hunting.
- in both drama, both leads have a group of very fun, very interesting, very loyal friends who are always there for them wether it's to educate them about romance or just tease them about it.
- in both drama, although the female lead has an admiration for the male lead for longer, it's the male lead who starts having romantic feelings first and who goes after the girl first indirectly by talking online wether it be with the game characters or online chatting and she kinda falls for the online character before she realizes who he is and then he goes after her in person too.
- in both, the male lead is smart, and athletic and is the most sort after guy in school, they also both play basket ball and are from an influential family. Either professors/writers/archeologist/historian or politician.
-in both cases, the male lead tries to make a name for himself away from his parents although in a good way, the parents are not supportive while the parents in love o2o let do what he wants.
- both female leads aren't ditzy and helpless but are very intelligent, very good in the activity they share with the male lead, independent, and can stand up for themselves and for those they love often pulling the male leads and his friend into their shenanigans,
I bet I could find more similarities but I m going to stop here, but I would advice to watch both dramas if you haven't because they re both interesting.

Considering how similar the main couples are in these two dramas. I'm surprised it's not even recommended. The genre is completely different. Memory Lost is a detective drama. The elite detective team vs. a team of criminal masterminds.
But I think Memory Lost amends the main weakness of Love O2O. The lack of chemistry. Xiao Nai is more often creepy than charismatic. Bei Wei Wei rarely shows any emotion other than blushing. While handling of plot, side characters etc. is awesome. A romance drama is incomplete if you can't feel the chemistry between the leads.
On the other hand while Han Chen is pretty possessive like Xiao Nai it comes off as more lovey dovey rather than creepy. Acting of Bai Xin Ji is leagues better than acting of Bei Wei Wei. And you can feel the chemistry between leads almost immediately.
Comparing the two in Memory Lost you get a way better OTP and a more exiting plot, with good twists, in Love O2O you get excellent side characters and realistic geek environment (Unlike some infamous shows).

- there is a romance in the game where they meet
(However, there is also romance outside the game)
- the focus is on the romance between the female lead and the male lead (mostly outside game)
- the male lead in Love 020 makes video games (much like her crush in Love & the Emperor)
In Love 020, more of the story takes place in present time, but it has the same sweetness between the characters. This is the drama series and there is also a movie version. The series can be found on viki.com: https://www.viki.com/tv/36373c-love-o2o
