Both take place in the 19th century Joseon, when the Japanese invaded Korea. ML is fighting for justice and for the weak and poor, just like they are fighting the system in The Nokdu Flower.

Both male leads have similarities like having similar jobs (doing anything).... suffering from trauma... feeling comfortable with the female lead.

negotiating relationship + love in the "real world", Moon Ga-young at the centre, clashing desires, late capitalism + neoliberalism, the gap between you and me

Note that the director watched Moon Ga-young in a one-act play/drama before casting her and it was almost definitely Dancing the waltz alone.

Both are friends to lovers

Some *SPOILER* Similarities are:

The ML likes the FL First.

FL looks for other options than the ML at first.

The FL is successful and a bit selfish,

The ML is caring and selfless when it comes to the FL

Both have love triangles and exhausting second female lead but the ML only has eyes for the FL
