This is the original version that this drama is based off of. The original is a Chinese webdrama featuring Hu Yi Tian as Jiang Chen (resident cold male lead) and Shen Yue as Chen Xiao Xi (resident naive female lead).

Love triangle at school. If you like that, check out this movie. They both have the same vibe, at least for me. Hope this helps.

'My Youth' (or 'Wait, My Youth') has a similar dynamic between the two leads, with the ML initially aloof and somewhat antagonistic toward the FL. The FL does not chase after him, though, but instead is attracted to another boy, who happens to be the ML's best friend.

It's the ML who slowly comes around to realizing that he was wrong when he once admonished her by saying he could never like a girl like her.

The story follows them through high school and college and into young adulthood, and has a definitive HEA.

FM is crazy about ML
ML acts like he doesn't like her back
ML is smarter than her
SML is athletic and popular

both are school dramas that follow their friendships and are low stakes

It is original Taiwan version of "a love so beautiful" with same drama outline and plots.
Male lead with super high IQ and handsome tall look
Female lead with low IQ and cute shorty look and chases the ML since beginning of drama
Second ML with athletic skill and so prominent one sided love to FL
FL has lovely and funny classmates
Both ML and FL are childhood friends and vaguely care each other in many ways

The only difference is ML in TW version has a rich family background while ML in Chinese and Korean version has broken family background..

i feel they are both lighthearted school romances that makes you wish you could be in love. its not too heavy to were youre arguing with people about it, but its not too light to the point to where its boring.
Recommended by zazi
school setting
first love
friendships
bromance
FL falling hopelessly and shamelessly in love with ML
i find the korean version of a love so beautiful to be more similiar with when i fly towards you
Recommended by Nimrah Laroush Bhatti
as they both are high school dramas. Also, it has a similar plot of a handsome guy and an ordinary girl.

- Same Male Actor (Kim Yo Han)
- Multiple leads
- Friendship
- First ML & FL have a childhood connection
- School themed (High school)
- Similar feel in a way

"School 2021" is a serious type of drama with sorts of twists while "A Love So Beautiful" is a more free, upbeat, and bubbly school drama.
