Tien, a Chinese-Thai business tycoon and his wife, Liu had four sons – Traipob, Traitep, Traipoom , and Traiwit. Tien had planned his sons’ lives from what they should study to whom they should be married to without caring about their willingness.

Traitep got married with Ruengrin and Traipoom got married with Wallapa, while Traipob who was very religious, chose to stay single.

Both IU dramas.

Both dramas with a FL romance with a prince and palace intrigue going on in the background.

In Moon Lovers, the FL is trying to avoid palace intrigues, while in Perfect Crown she's driving herself there.

Both beautifully directed and acted. Great chemistry between the leads.

Both showa have the same plot, were two childhood friends who lost contact meet again with turn apareances and financial status. Even with different formats it's nice to watch.

Arrogant Superior plus different class woman. All wrapped up in a glossy and shiny package with grand overtones.

I think these two are similar in many ways. While Signal is focused on walkie-talkie communication between the years, Twelve Letters focused on communicating through writing letters and sending them through a mailbox, but both are communicating with the future to solve the past. What's different is that Signal is more heavy on investigation and detective things, but TL is more romantic.
