Meet the close friends Shen Yue, Wang Jing Xuan, Wu Yu Heng and Zhou Yan Chen.

They meet doing filming of "The Comic Bang" and has stayed close friends since.

"Joyful Grown Ups" are coming out of Shen Yue's vlogs.

We follow a group of friends, who's mission is to create happy moment in our daily lifes. They love to laugh a lot, when they are together, but they can also talk about deeper issues.

While A Love Never Lost deals with more fictional characters and Awakening Age is a biopic, both series deal with political thought and factions in early 20th century China. Both series do a great job of showing traditional China encountering modernity and struggling with it. Also, a number of the revolutionaries mentioned in A Love Never Lost appear in Awakening Age-showing how they progressed following the Xinhai Revolution.

Both are female centric dramas, in both dramas the female lead is strong physically and emotionally , they can use material arts to fight for their country and both are smart and wild yet both are calm and cunning in a different way.

Both have the lead character time travelling/body swap theme, consciousness of the actual person and the person from the future.

Both films are about historical wars inspired by real events and old tales. They involve two great main female character – who by cunning and courage – saves their nation from hostile foreign forces. Willing to sacrifice themselves, they're selflessly fighting for what's important; to achieve lasting peace and to protect their country, and beloved people.

We have a Female Lead in the army and a lot of military battles and wars and palace intrigues.
Both have strong and independent female lead.

The struggles of women in the inner chambers are as treacherous as men's fights on the battlefield.

Same script, different adaptations. Both pairings have good chemistry.
I think there might be two more short dramas addapter from same script

Nogizaka under Construction (2015) was a continuation/new iteration of Nogizakatte Doko (2011-2015) with similar MC and cast (members of idol group Nogizaka46)

- Feminine MLs that crossdress on occasion
- Insecure and softspoken FL (more realistic in KnDwN than in Kuragehime)
- Confident and carefree ML
- ML bringing FL out of her shell
- Themes of finding oneself and being true to oneself
- Instant friendship between ML and FL
- Love triangle situation (two men vying for FL)
- Both are adapted from Josei mangas

Main difference is that KnDwN is more focused on romance rather than friendship and it's lacking in the sismance present in Kuragehime.

Intelligent, suspenseful, twist-filled dramas about corruption. Characters that are smart and pursue their self-interest, instead of doing things for plot reasons. Richly-detailed stories with great casts.

If you are into a vampire story during Republican era…
Same plot device of fragile young woman who is the redemption of older blase male vampire .
