Korean BL, office romance between new intern and the manager. Super soft and unproblematic, with a happy ending.

Both dramas feature a storyline where a male protagonist assumes a different identity to hide his true identity from the public. The dramas also explore themes of love, mistaken identity, and the challenges faced by celebrities.

Tells the 15-year love story between Zhou Xiao Qi, a long-time swimming student and You Yong Ci, a transfer student. In high school, Zhou Xiao Qi fell in love at first sight with You Yong Ci.

From 1971 to 2001, the love between An Ran and Zhao Yong Yuan stands strong against time. From when they were children with no emotions, they gradually grew into adults with emotions for each other, from friendship to love.

Believing Li Xing is still waiting for her, Qiao Qiao waits patiently for his call. But when Li Xing finally does contact her it’s to invite her to his wedding. Qiao Qiao is flabbergasted and is determined to win her former flame back at any cost—even though the secret that forced them apart lingers. Can their love truly be reignited?

It seems to be similar to the Laws of Attraction because it's like a Enemies to Lovers plus it is also an Action-Romance BL series. I highly recommend it.

- The plot is quite similar
- Only difference is in Somehow 18 ML goes back and in this drama FL goes back to save ML

- The plot is quite similar
- Only difference is in Blue Birthday FL goes back through old photos and in this drama with a clock to save the ML

Both have the theme of some sort of 'Serial Killer Gene' (that in some cases is a 'Genius Gene'), and somewhat explore the ethics using that knowledge

Both are about solving crimes, though Mouse is more about a big overarching case, while Justice in the Dark seems to be broken up into smaller cases that are connected (once it's fully released, this might be different)

Mouse does not have any BL themes, and seems to be more graphic when showing crime scenes

Written by the same writer. Has a very similar story vibe. Makes sure to properly balance humor and heart with the crazy makjang shenanigans.

In these two dramas, a member from police needs the help from a student ( so someone who is not a detective and is supposedly not qualified to participate in an investigation, but he is ). The male lead is really smart in KSNJ5 and can do things that others can't ( mainly in ONHCT). But although they are good at investigating, they are not really smart in studies so others often look down on them.
In both dramas, they do not investigate common cases, mainly in ONHCT because it is a fantastic drama with supernatural elements. Both dramas can be both funny and really serious.
I would say that ONHCT is more serious because it deals with the theme of mourning througout all the drama. Neverthless, it still is a really funny drama even more than KSNJ5 in my opinion.

1.Almost same cast
2.Thriller style violence
3.Inheritance and jealousy
Through its a sequel, there is no link between the stories.
