Same BL/murder story plot line, the expositions and play-outs of these are very similar in essence. The more you watch it, the more similarities you find, but I can't say them cause that's mega spoilers.
Both are dark psychological miniseries. The female leads deal with identity issues and the feeling of being trapped. Completely different storylines but very similar atmospheres.
Both productions not only have Joseph Chang (Chang Hsiao Chuan) as ML, they are also quirky (with similar arthouse vibe to them) and bloody.
- both are adaptions from BL novels
- both pairs are inseparable and have amazing chemistry
- both stories partly revolve around finding the missing pieces of a powerful object
- both have one male lead who takes the ''wrong'' path -> Wei Wuxian from The Untamed by practicing demonic cultivation and Wen Kexing from Word of Honor by becoming chief of the ghost valley

Both the dramas revolve around a murder case where all the characters are suspects & have a motive.
One has extraordinary events based on fantasy the other based on quasi-science.
Childhood/youth connection , event triggering mystery/ suspense
Light moments balancing the suspense
Main Character managing life expectancy - pending event
It just feels similar! :)

From the first moment that I started to watch Vincenzo, I thought they had a very similar concept. With the corruption, taking revenge of the dead of a person you love, a big plot twist of who's the villian and a very frustrating love story . However, I think Vincenzo has more comedy otherwise Vagabond, but I am 100% sure that if you enjoyed Vincenzo, you will like Vagabond :)
Similar with Gangs, action and fighting scenes

Both Male Leads are Fake. Suits have a fake lawyer, while Your Honor features a fake Judge. Both ML are competent enough in the Law.
Two taiwanese drama with beautiful journey and breathtaking scenery, kind of slow and slice of life. Two young women who search theirs path in life and finding herself. A healing story.
Both have lawyer couple main leads and involve taking down a big corporation.
Both have similar action scenes and court scenes.
Both have a male lead with a troubled past.
They have a similar tone and sense of humor so if you like one you should try the other

First, to clarify I'll be comparing Let's Fight Ghost with Tokyo Babylon (manga) by CLAMP and its spin-off/live action Tokyo Babylon 1999 because some things what I will point are mostly present on the comic, so I highly recommend reading it!!
So, what is similar? To start, all the issue about doing exorcism. TB's main character is an onmyoji (basically a Japanese medium) who is called/contracted to get rid of spirits, just like in the Thai series.
As in the series, both tries to show us the past of each ghost, the reason behind their death, why they cannot get reincarnated and so on. In the case of Let's Fight Ghost, it is pure comedy basically but in the manga, even if there are touches of humour, it's more tragedy and social commentary.
Another important point, the big parallelism between Dr. Jade and Seishiro Sakurazuka is incredible, I was not expecting that at all. To avoid spoilers, I will only say both are apparently perfect and kind vets who indeed are not what they look being and are related to magical/paranormal stuff. I wonder if there was some kind of inspiration, I'm really speechless.

'HOUSE', 'HANAGATAMI' and 'Labyrinth of Cinema' are the only three features directed by Obayashi that are currently legally available with English subtitles in the West.
‘My Dear Friend’ is a short YouTube gl with a similar school premise and an open ending where's two friends fall in love, but it's tone is pretty much like Jing Chen’s arc in ‘Dear Uranus’ (a bit melancholic).
Both have similar content like brother love. Step brother relationship. Parents remarriage etc things
