they both have a similar dark crime vibe. ML and FL also have similar chemistry, i.e. FL really understands ML and they have a deep connection (she gets close to him while others can't).

The plots aren’t similar…but both dramas has a smart lead that has a certain disability that society often perceive as incapable of emotional involvement especially in a romantic way.
In both shows the thought of ‘maybe it is’ & ‘maybe its not’ did pop in my head with their relationship but it certainly didn’t stop me from hoping & cheering for it.
Both are also excellent dramas in their own right & highly worth the watch.

There are many similarities in terms of plot points and even the framing of shots. So much so that it’s clear that the makers of FOE had been influenced by MOAM. Giving examples would be giving spoilers. So I’ll just mention one. A car accident shown repeatedly as a flashback. Each time it’s shown, it reveals new information.
