If you enjoy wuxia-setting mystery bromances, look no further. Mysterious Lotus Casebook has more emphasis on the bromance while Ancient Detective has more focused mysteries, but both are visually stunning and thoughtful shows with fleshed out casts and enjoyable writing.

Both are colorful, quirky, and surrealist ensemble comedies directed by P'Jojo Tichakorn that were released around the same time and hold similiar messages about redemption, sex positivity, and the necessity of community for survival under late-stage capitalism.

A similar premise takes opposing turns in these two 2023 releases of poor women each finding themselves in possession of an illegal fortune.

P'Jojo has always been explicitly clear in his love of 90s gangster movies, and his directorial addition to the Midnight Series (a series he proposed to begin with) is no different. Dirty Laundry is less dark and more of a comedy, but the inspiration is clear enough to make it an homage.

If you enjoyed Dirty Laundry and want to get a better sense of the genre that inspired it, look no further; and if you wanted a happier ending for 6ixtynin9, then Jojo Tichakorn is the man for the job.

These are different adaptations of the same story so if you like one you may enjoy seeing what was changed and what remained the same for the other.

The gritty crime element, the star-crossed opposites-attract romance, the body count along the way...

Also, if you want to see Organ in more shows, I have to recommend checking both of these out. She's a brilliant actress that steals every scene in which she appears.

The same screenwriters worked on both shows and it's pretty obvious. Both shows have simple premises that are cleverly written.

Same director, similar set up and premise, better executed. If you like NLMG you will love 3WBF and if you dislike NLMG then 3WBF will deliver on everything you are disappointed about in NLMG.

Edit: Jojo Tichakorn the director also confirmed that these two dramas take place in the same universe! There was supposed to be a crossover in NLMG where Shin became a cameo mentor to Neungdiao but it was eventually scrapped for time.
