I seriously can't remember Step by Step's plot but I believe they had this age gap trope as well in the series, right?

For sure we have a pretty different series here but I’d like to state that basically both have a similar theme…
1. Wuxia/Xianxia elements in the series
2. Writers as the main lead even though LGEF focused more on the plot inside the novel, while BOTW tries to manage both situations (regulation in both countries are different so this point is understandable)
3. Both series are cute and visually attractive (that’s for sure ??)
Hmm… as for the rest please do find out through the series itself ??

Hmm… both are portraying writers ‘life’ I guess???
That’s the first thing…
Basically, Battle of The Writers shows a relationship between two writers meanwhile Moonlight shows the relationship between a writer and editors (technically it’s PieOzone in BOTW)
This living together trope… we can’t avoid that point…
As for the remaining… I’m not sure,,, both have their own charms ???

Both movies are very different in plot and... basically everything? (I guess both have a focus on music and take place in a school). I still felt like linking them through a recommendation as they feature the same main actor - Shim Hyun-seo. He started acting at a young age, so a lot of his youth is captured in films.
If you liked his portrayal as Yuwol and are curious about what hes been up to lately i suggest watching 404 as it shows a more grown up version. Likewise, if you liked him in 404 and are interested in checking out his previous works or his incredible dancing skills Yuwol seems like a good starting point

Without spoiling too much, both are angsty queer dramas with very similar themes, exploring the nature of love and life in the public eye.
If you enjoyed The East Palace, Revenant has a similar vibe. It has the same eerie supernatural atmosphere, Korean folklore, and ghost-centered mystery, but it's set in modern-day Korea instead of a historical palace. It's darker and more psychological, with a slow-burn story.
this is a chinese version remake..........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Our Sticky Love (2026) and Couple or Trouble (2006) share a remarkably similar central premise. Both stories begin with a woman who loses her memory after an accident and wakes up with no recollection of her identity or past. In each drama, a man steps into her life claiming to have a close relationship with her, setting the stage for a romance built on hidden truths and mistaken identity.
In Our Sticky Love, Go Eun-sae is an ambitious prosecutor who loses her memory while investigating a criminal organization. When she wakes up in a rural clinic, she meets Jang Tae-ha, a former boxing champion turned boxing coach, who tells her that he is her boyfriend. With nowhere else to turn, Eun-sae moves in with him in a countryside village famous for its traditional taffy (“yeot”), where their awkward cohabitation gradually develops into romance.
This setup closely resembles Couple or Trouble, where Anna Jo also loses her memory and ends up living with a man who takes advantage of her condition. In both dramas, the leads are forced to live together despite their differences, creating a mix of comedic misunderstandings, emotional moments, and growing affection. The amnesia, fake relationship, and enemies-to-lovers dynamic are major elements shared by both series.
However, Our Sticky Love adds several unique twists that distinguish it from its predecessor. Tae-ha is not simply an ordinary man—he is trying to leave behind a criminal past after once joining a gang, and his reunion with Eun-sae is deeply personal because she was his first love before the accident. Rather than inventing a relationship from nothing, he builds his lie around a real emotional connection while attempting to protect her from the dangerous people pursuing them. This introduces an underworld mystery alongside the romantic comedy.
The overall tone also differs. While Couple or Trouble is primarily a romantic comedy focused on the changing relationship between its leads, Our Sticky Love blends its lighthearted romance with suspense and crime. Netflix describes it as combining “fish-out-of-water” comedy, nostalgic romance, and noir-style suspense, making it both a feel-good romance and a mystery surrounding Eun-sae’s forgotten past and the gang that threatens both protagonists.
