the male and female leads in both the dramas are good in studying. They have to stay apart due to some family circumstances and meet each other later in the university.

Similarities:
-A small group of people band together to bring an end to evil and learn truths about the past and themselves.
-Great martial arts skills.
-Very smart/slightly cheesy ML's in both.
-Both groups solve mysteries and get to the bottom of things.
-Comedy is ever present in both.

In both dramas, there are supernatural abilities involved. These are the baseline for bothdramas.

Moving is placed in modern times
Alchemy of Souls is placed in fictional historical times

The two dramas include the actress Go Yoon Jung however Alchemy of Souls doesn't have much screen time for her yet until the 2nd season.

Both are supernatural and have a compelling plot that causes series of chained reactions.

A difference is that Mirror of the Witch is based around 1 supernatural while Moving is based around 3 supernaturals.

Ones more romantic and another one is more slice of life/detective kind.

It's about a teenager who is gifted and is trying to fit into the everyday life of a teen. it has romance, action and suspense. They both have adults who are trying to protect their wards from people who want to harm them.

The comedy of BFtB is also as fun in Wulin Heroes--so if you are seeking more fun and less angst driven dramas like Til the End of the Moon or Longest Promise, check it out.

It is a Joseon-period historical drama. I would love for this show to be picked up by Netflix so that I could watch it with English subtitles. I love other Korean historical dramas, e.g., Mr. Sunshine, Mr. Queen, The King's Affection, and Rookie Historian! More, please! I am an English-speaking US citizen hooked on South Korean TV shows. I am learning a little bit about the Korean language, culture, and history as I watch.

- mains deeply love each other,
- leads travel in time trying to save each other,
- one of them dies at some point and the other one tries to save them

Queer crew, queer story, queer characters who have messy lives. Aof and Jojo wrote Gay OK Bangkok and Jojo directed it. It's a realistic story while OF is more entertainment, but we can have both.

They both have a similar vibe, specifically guys doing random slice of life stuff and humorous things happen.

Both contain case-solving, humor, and heartfelt moments, and a grand arc that spans the entire season.

BoT is a modern, supernatural investigative procedural that pushes along the main character arc at a brisk pace. It matches the quality and style of some of the best Hollywood procedural shows in mixing side-splitting absurdist humor, astute social commentary, and heartfelt moments. The show replaces bromance with a more team camaraderie and realistic romance between ML and FL. The engaging and consequential cases and grand story arc culminates in an exciting finale.

The biggest issue is the poor subtitle quality limits the accessibility as much of the hilarity and context of the show may be bungled by subpar translation. Though fluent Chinese speakers will likely enjoy this quirky hidden gem.

Same main two leads of both dramas
Same friendship between them
Both dramas are wuxia drama
Both dramas are unique because Cheng Yi is the main lead of them

Both have a likeable gang of characters solving cases.

Young blood's cases are more engaging and consequential whereas MLC's feel more like props. MLC is a higher budget production, though YB is arguably better in most areas such as plot, characterization, and acting.

For non-native speakers, MLC may be more accessible and an easier breezier watch.

Wuxia adventure light in theme and propelled forward by likeable characters and bromance.

BoY has more differentiated fighting styles, but also a heavier reliance on CGI. MLC has more compelling characters and more interesting plot, a more grownup version to BoY's youthful energy.
