The thing that ties these two shows together is the love triangle aspect. In both shows, you have the ML and FL establish a deep bond when they were children, but they get separated.

Once they grow up, one of the leads (FL in SU and ML in SWP) tries to find their childhood love and reconnect. However, instead of meeting them honestly, the other main lead (ML in SU and FL in SWP) asks someone else (2ML in SU and 2FL in SWP) to "pretend to be them" and meet with the now successful lead (FL in SU and ML in SWP).

However, unintendedly, the second lead ends up developing feelings for the main lead, extending the lie while giving room for the main leads to fall in love with each other.

Both shows feature a character who is a zombie. Not only do they need to learn to control their instinct to eat, but they do not remember why, how or who killed them.

In ZD the ML is the zombie, while in AKO the 2FL is the zombie. They each end up finding a close friend who helps them through their ordeal.

In both shows:

> The Male Leads are't human. In Black he's a grim reaper and in TOTNT he's a fox.
> The Male Leads are constantly protecting the Female Leads, more so when they develop feelings towards them.

Having said that, Black is a lot darker than TOTNT.

The shows are quite different, but they do touch upon various similar themes:
> The Female Leads are ambitious and persistent. They don't only dream big, but they show they have the skills to ground those dreams and make them a reality. They are also undervalued by others and judged harshly for their backgrounds, but they show they don't care what others think as they walk to the sound of their own drums.
> The Male Leads are shown to be good at what they do, but they lack the tooth to make it big on their own, which is where the FL comes in. They end up trusting and almost following the Female Lead as they go forward.
> They both culminate in becoming partners in their own company.
> The relationship between the leads also begins with a lie. In Hyena, the FL lies to the ML and pretends to be someone she's not. Whereas in Start Up, the ML lies to the FL and pretends to be someone he's not.
> There are more than two strong female leads within the show who are strong, independent and actively involved in the plot.
