Same leads both dramas are pretty interesting and good ?
Chinese shared universe
The novel is written by the same author... and I feel like both lean into a soft, emotional romance style with a bit mature love line.
And the visuals of both are great even though When I meet the moon isn't released yet
It is a must try if y'all like The first frost

City girl encounters countryside man. She knows nothing about small towns but on this journey she discovers new habits and mostly herself.
Bread of Happiness (Japanese movie):
Young married couple Rie and Nao move from Tokyo to Tsukiura in Hokkaido Prefecture to start a bakery restaurant named Mani. Nao bakes bread and his wife Rie makes food that complements the bread. Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, the customers leave in a happy state.
Tales of the Floating World (Chinese drama):
Thousands of years ago, a little demoness on a tree fell in love with the God of Water. After a tragic and disappointing love story with him, she lived alone in the present world and became the owner of a dessert shop called “Everlasting.” She brews a tea known as “Floating Life,” and many strange customers come to her shop.
Each guest, after drinking the tea, tells a story—a tale of love, hatred, and heartbreaking passion among demons: a handsome demon boy who falls in love with a fish, a magical fox who protects a prophetic flower, a golden lion roaring at the sky to save his beloved, and a midnight butterfly warrior burdened by a strange past who slays demons…
Every customer who visits the dessert shop has a story. And like the “Floating Life” tea, each story blends bitterness and sweetness after countless twists and turns.
The tree demoness listens quietly to their tales. Yet she herself is still searching for her own path in life. Her journey involves Zi Miao, Jiu Gui, Ao Qi, the fat man, and the thin man… In the end, where will they all go?
Similarities:
- both stories set in a cozy shop (in "bread of happiness" they sell bread, in "tales of the floating world" they sell dessert).
- both dramas revolve around multiple different stories, all belonging to those who visit their shop.
Differences:
- In "Bread of Happiness", the people who own the bakery are already a happy couple so we don't see their story progress much.
- In "Tales of the Floating World", the female lead has her own story where we get to see her find her own path in life.

She is a city girl. He is a country boy. She needs him but they are so different from another. Can they make it work?
Escaping Seoul for the countryside. Immersion with small town villagers and their amusing habits. Culture choc, humour and love story.
Cabbage your life is more on the comedy side also the two stories put a focus on the beautiful Korean countryside. Nice opportunities to discover small town villagers and different lifestyle far from Seoul.
Healing journey far from the city. Two females leave the big city to reconnect with themselves, learning about another life style.
2 stories about starting over from the city to the countryside, learning to slowdown and rethink about priorities in life.
Both are adaptations of Chai Jidan, with similar themes and dynamics. But 'Revenged Love' is a step up from 'Advance Bravely' because it isn't censored the way 'Advance Bravely' was with a visibly higher budget.
So if you were upset 'Advance Bravely' was made into a bromance due to sensorship, you will definitely enjoy the more polished and mature explicitly romantic 'Revenged Love'.

In My Sweet Mobster, a CEO/ ex gangster falls for a struggling entertainer. In My Royal Nemesis, a monstrous chaebol falls for a Joseon villainess transported into the body of a struggling actress. Both situations lead to hilarious consequences.
