this is the japanese version of haunters. the storyis the same but if u do like haunters, you probably gonna like this movie too

Eddie Peng plays the lead in both of them. His character is somehow similar : caring, sweet and funny. It gives off the same vibe and will make you laugh and cry.

some main characters of Princess Pearl are reunited again in Romance in the Rain. it is just lovely to see them acting together and thus the writer of Princess Pearl is also the one who writes RITR. RITR is a story of tragedy, comedy, life struggling, and eternal romance.

Classic Japanese horror! And even if Yotsuya Kaidan is older, it doesn't mean it's not scary!

They are the two halves of the so called "Duel Project": both directors had to film a movie with two characters battling in one setting during the span of a week. One idea developed in two different ways!

These two shows are drama-spinoffs from their respective novels, written by the same author. Furthermore, both female leads are of the same personality and played by the same actress.

They're both based on school/college students and give off a warm vibe. Not to mention the similarity in terms of heartbreak and disease.

Both dramas have the same writer and PD, and also star Lee Jong Suk who can be considered to have the same kind of character : both have been hurt in the past, and are trying to get over it in a way...

Both leads pretend to be the opposite gender.

Coffee Prince is a comedy romance and is very enjoyable to watch. You won't be disappointed :)

Both dramas concentrate on a specific culinary area.
Both teach you a lot about their respective domain.
Both revolve around a master in his field that is forced to accept an unwanted disciple - a headstrong woman, who gives her all to learn.
Both dramas are rather slow and have a certain "Indie" feeling about them.
If you enjoyed one of them, you'd enjoy the other one too.

Same vibe, similar setting with lessons about being true to oneself and some kickass fighting.
They both have male lead who are confused about their future, female lead who strives to be perfect and a guy friend who's timid.

These dramas share the same production team as well as a basis in the novels of Minato Kanae. Each deals with overlapping themes in a different way, though their atmospheres are similar.

Both stories based on the ghosts and dark magic. If you love stories of ghosts and dark magic you'll love them both. :) :)

both movies are an adaption from mangas and in the action / thriller genre
