My Mr. Mermaid (2017)

FL are both reporters who interview sportsmen MLs.
Both met when they were younger.
I can't wait to see how Hello, The Sharpshooter as I really loved My Mr. Mermaid

ML is an Athlete.
FL works in a media company.
Although both the story are not quite similar but both of them are worth watching.

Both have the same comfy vibe with not too dramatic plottwist. The same kind of cringiness and the same kind of pacing but above all, the same kind of friendships. The female lead isn't as sassy like Tang Xue, but she does have some brain and harsh tongue. Yun Duo is more gentle and feminine than Tang Xue, but they have the same kind of sass. Yi Bai is also far more soft heartened than Li Yu Bing, but they are both crazy for only one girl and are willing to do anything for them. They both work hard for their sports career and they both have all their teammates as real brothers. If you like Skate Into Love, you will likely also love My Mr.Mermaid :)

Both are Chinese sports dramas with a similar vibe. My Mr. Mermaid is about a disgraced athlete due to a former scandal while Lighting is about the son of a disgraced athlete. Both male leads are fighting to be #1 and win back their honor. My Mr. Mermaid has a lot more fluff and cute scenes between ML and FL.

-Bromance
-School Setting
-Swimming
-Cute Romance

I feel like A love so beautiful has a similar setting to My Mr.Mermaid. They both have swimming involved . Though A love so beautiful is more focused around the school aspect whereas My Mr.Mermaid is more focused around the swimming aspect

The theme of friendship and rivalry is similar. The ping pong life seems much better in terms of story but romance is a side theme. While in my mr mermaid, romance is more.
Ping pong life focuses on the challenges faced by the players as well as how they overcome it. However my mr mermaid'sstory revolves around the romance and second is the friendship.

In both dramas there is an adorable leading lady and an equally adorable mother of the leading man. The mother goes to great lengths to match make for this couple..
Differences:
Itazura na Kiss' leading man is the typical cliche smart and handsome Jerk. He does NOT want to admit that he likes the girl, even to himself. The leading lady is adorable and sweet. She is not very talented but determined to better herself.
My Mr. Mermaid's leading man is dedicated to his sport but kind and sweet. He seems quite smitten with the leading lady, right away. The leading lady is dedicated to becoming a good reporter, but equally dedicated to being an honest upright person and good friend.

Itazura na Kiss is based on a manga and there were versions made in Taiwan, Korea, Japan, Thailand, and China... I loved them all. However, if you do not like going through all of those episodes, that make it seem like the girl is chasing a guy who is just not that into her, try Kiss Me(the Thai version) first. In that version, it is apparent, very early on that he has a soft spot for her, compared to the rest.

its all about the spirit of sportivity
even in the different kind of sport but u can see all about friendship, love n sport in one frame..
with a lot of hot guys there kekeke

Similarities:
- School
- Involves friendship
- Swimming
- Romance
- Easy going themes
- Swimming competitions
- Deep plots

Both are great dramas and would recommend anyone to watch them. I am not finished with my. mr Mermaid but I can say it going in the right direction so far.

Both sports drama with swimming athletes. Both main leads became friends before lovers. They had great chemistry. Light bubbly easy to watch dramas that give you the same feel-good vibes.

Both of these Chinese dramas, "Sparkle Love" and "My Mr. Mermaid," are about swimming and college. They're both cute and fluffy youth dramas so I think it's nice to watch as a filler drama or if you need to calm your nerves from a previous drama that you've just watched.

Similarly a C drama on sports and romance. Both focusing on swimming and competing. My Mr Mermaid is warmer and has other lovely aspects of friendship, and team spirit.

Almost evrything about both the ML AND FL were similar
- first the FL are both reporther runs to ML and both FL first were trying to interview ML friend which were both popular at that time and meets the ML instead i do wanna say a lot but I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS DRAMA IF YOU LIKE ONE YOU WILL TOTALLY LOVE THE OTHER

If "Go Ahead" talked about how to develop family, then "My Mr. Mermaid" talked about to develop dream. When you have to hold what you are dreaming of. And you cannot lose hope for your dream and your love.

At first glance these two dramas aren't exactly similar but having watched both, there is a similar tone and vibe these shows give off. Though Sweet Combat is about boxing and martial arts and My Mr Mermaid is about swimming, both of these dramas are set during the college years with super cute main couples and a great group of friends though the friend group in My Mr Mermaid feels a bit closer. Sweet Combat also does have a bit more drama cliches (rich female lead with a disapproving grandfather) but overall if you like one, you'll probably like the other.
