- Both racket sports
- both ml go through sports journey of finding one self
- both individual but tennis i think does a better job with act showing more of the team aspect
- both not centered around romace but theres a sliver of it (its more in ping pong then it is in tennis)
They have the exagerated moves n the names for them but i think tennis does a better job of making the exgerations intresting n we understood how good they are more

Diffrence is
- imagine if main lead was yk, like in tennis the guy was rlly talented from the beggining. N doesnt fit in right away with the team due to individualistic views
- also tennis show a better sense of sportsmanship between teams but there are still tention n ppl against one another

Both dramas feature underdog(s), their gradually growing friendships, and their struggle in their quest to rise to the top of their respective fields as professionals. It’s just that one drama is focused on ping pong and the other one is focused on Go.

Both about sport and friendship
Both have similar vibes in how they overcome their own struggles and how they work together to become the best versions of themselves

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.

Both dramas are in the sports genre.
Both dramas focus on sports, discovering the confidence in their skills, learning about team play, fighting for their dreams and success.
"|Hot Stove League" also showcases the management of a team and the work that goes on behind the scene, not only in competitions, but both dramas touch on character dynamics and relationships that help the characters grow (lessons).

Both are current ongoing dramas starring Bai Jing Ting as Male Lead. Totally different dramas, but both are outstanding in their own ways. Bai Jing Ting's characters are totally different too, he slayed in both. If you enjoy Bai Jing Ting in one of these, please try to watch the other one too.

Both have friendship and bromance ,, both have friends fighting then taking care of each other to help each other succeed but I don't want to be brothers with you is more to the family than sports

Similar vibes, in both series there are two MLs, who care and support each other, while also stimulating each others growth, both cover long recovery period, MLs personal growth - physical and psychological.
