The Penthouse: War in Life is really mysterious like the drama Law School. Just like this drama there is murder not 1 but a few. The plot twists are amazing as well. The dark vibe you get from this will really shake you up. The actors and actresses do an outstanding job with their characters. I was amazed. Definitely recommend it!!!

Both depict the loving relationship between a father and his son, who has autism/Asperger's.

Both are incredibly heartwarming and deal with the death of a loved one, as well as how their family adapts to the loss.

You will see some excellent messages in both about compassion, grief and love as well as some amazing character development and growth.

You will need a box of tissues for both :)

It might seem like a stretch but one of the best things about Hot Stove League is the scripts use of metaphors and symbolism that can be applied to our daily life. Now do bare in mind that Hot Stove League is not a melo-series. But I did see some parallels. Also add to both of these dramas focus on leadership, office politics, corruption, trust, grief and personal responsibilities.

The main male leads remind me of each other in the way they hold themselves. Although the main character in the one does have the ability to express feelings. The settings and the plot stay professional throughout. The leads are also very smart and every move in the plot makes sense for each character.

They both have the rich family settings with secrets about the children's birth/secrets about the family not to be known to the public and both dramas have strong female leads as the main leads

This drama revolves on a family business that cares for people after death as well. It also tell the stories of the those who have left the world and finding out the truth of their last words. It shows how each death is respected and treated and The drama also bring awareness how the business continues to be a much unappreciated business in the Asian society where there is constant discrimination.

(Spoiler) This is a longer series but it has the same friends to lovers type thing. There is also the second male lead which she dates before realizing that they actually love the best friends. The show starts off with the female lead needing a place to stay so she ends up going to her childhood male best friends place where they become roommate. She then dates this super nice guy and her male best friends supports them at first. They also have a love hate friendship ( the main leads)
However it’s a lil more slow paced and needs to watch the second season where it gets good

If you watch both of them you will understand why
I cant spoil you d*mn it! Let's just say that both drama feel very similar. Both the way they handled the plot and the way it was presented.

A realistic game let's fans date their idols with special glasses however there is a dark secret behind this game.

Similarity :
- a tight group of boys who are good friends
- FL lead and ml meet each other in-game and in person
