Both dramas are centered around the friendship of group of seemingly very different women. They share their hardships and happy days, they fight and then they make up but most importantly, they always have each others' back.
Both dramas sometimes contain similar story tropes but as main leads are in different age groups, these tropes get solved somewhat differently.

Both dramas have quite short episodes (WLDN 30 minutes, AOY 45 minutes per episode)

Age of Youth is about 5 flatmates in their early 20s. The drama is about their everyday life, college struggles and first loves. Each main lead represents some basic stereotype (there is girly girl, innocent shy girl, sexy minx, serious hardworking girl, free-spirited girl). The drama is more slice-of-life centered.

Work Later, Drink now is about 3 friends in their early 30s who drink together every day. They are somewhat losers - one of them is pretty but very stupid, one of them is a bit of a weirdo, the last one falls in love with pitiful men when shes drunk. The drama is more focused on ridiculous comedy and it is more adult oriented.

- romance
- both explore multiple relationships
- all couples are connected in some way
- mellow (more than blue is more emotional)

=> The female lead uses her brother's identity to pretend to be a man (though their reasons are different)
=> The 6 main characters plus the villainous royal relative plus the real brother in King's Affection can be compared to the four main characters plus 2 important additional female character plus villain student plus real brother in Sungkyunkwan:
= King's Affection vs Sungkyunkwan Scandal
= Dami/Yeon Seon/Fake Lee Hwi = Kim Yoon Hee/Fake Kim Yoon Shik --> main female pretending to be a man
= Jung Ji Woon = Lee Seon Joon --> male lead, falls in love with female pretending to be a man
= Lee Hyun = Moon Jae Shin --> second male lead who knows main is a girl for a long time but hides his feelings
* Lee Hyun = Gu Yong Ha --> Lee Hyun of King's Affection can also be compared to Sungkyunkwan Scandal's Gu Yong Ha,
both are among the three male leads but neither is the first male lead nor the warrior/action guy
= Kim Ga On = Gu Yong Ha --> third male lead, neither seems to have serious feelings to the female lead, has an air of
mystery to their characters
* Kim Ga On = Moon Jae Shin --> Kim Ga On of King's Affection can also be compared to Sungkyunkwan Scandal's Moon
Jae Shin because both are the warrior/action guys among the male leads
= Shin So Eun = Ha Hyo Eun --> both are female characters that may seem to have a link/affection to the male lead
= No Ha Kyung = Cho Sun --> both are women that will fall in love with their respective main female leads, thinking they are
men
= Evil royal relative (can't remember the name) = Ha In Soo --> villains that are against the main female leads
= Real Lee Hwi = Real Kim Yoon Shik --> real owners of female leads' identities.

Both are unsolved mysteries of the murders of the main characters’ parents during their childhood, with unexpected twists.

Both webdramas are about the kpop universe but also talks about the k-entertainment world and how sneaky it can be. The two main female leads have doppelgangers and switch positions.

A drama about healing, change, friendship and family bonding. HCCC is a really sweet nd peaceful drama to watch when you are in a bad mood or need some change from action/thriller/crime dramas. This drama also has amazing cinematography and a beautiful scenery. Great chemistry between the actors and a beautiful romance!!

-Creditor and debtor relationship. In Man in Love the social class of both is much more marginalized
-Deals with inter generational debt
-Death of father
-Male lead chases female lead first
-Soft hearted male lead
-Dali and Cocky Prince is much more light and whimsical compared to Man in Love which is more gritty and melodramatic

Both dramas involve around an idol boy group and also have an element of who-is-who confusion going on... just in quite a different way.

Both dramas include the hash and the sweet of the life of idol trainees and the chemistry between the group members. Debut contains an extra element of fantasy but in the core it's an idol drama.
