Male and Female Lead Actor same in My Girl and My Youth. Both was great drama. Litle bit same caracter between Li Tien Yi and Shen Yi.

Similarly has reincarnations of deities and mortals. One immortal remained alive for thousands of years .

Not sure why they decided to change actresses in Ice Fantasy Destiny tho. With the original actress only making a cameo appearance towards the end.

Heesooks and Taesungs relationship kind of reminded me of Flat. Theyre both younger male/older female stories where the guy has been crushing on the girl since high school. Back then it was just a one sided crush but now that the characters are older its starting to become requited. Apart from that theyre both cute short mini dramas that you can find on youtube.

both are feel good/ cute romances between two men that end happily and both are short movies by lgbt focused movie companies that often even like work together.

Both the couple relationships are strong without all the misunderstanding/breakups. Hard to find a enjoyable no cringe worthy drama to watch like these

Because Lee Joon Gi and Moon Chae Won previously starred together in Criminal Minds. And their chemistry is no joke JJANG!

Both raw indie like romance movies, only that in Theater a Love Story" is the male lead that tries to chase his dreams

This is literally the same historical event but retold from another character's POV. The villains become heroes and vice versa. While I love Zhou Xun as Ulanara/Ruyi in RRLP more, she's about the only character who's developed better.
Everyone else (Concubine Ling, Emperor Qianlong, Empress Rongyin, etc) is developed and acted much better. Special mention to Wu Jin Yan as Concubine Ling (here called Wei Ying Luo, because history never recorded her real name) and Nie Yuan as Emperor Qianlong.

both japanese short movies follow high school students who are bored of the small town they live in and their uneventful life. There is a focus on friendship and youth. And so we put goldfish in the pool is way more 'loud' and out there with its editing etc while She's Gone is more quiet (and kinda confusing tbh..)

Well, hyena is about lawyer but it has some similar points. Both drama have the plot that 2 main leads hate each other but then they have to work together to solve crimes. Hyena also have a little bit of romance

Exact same premise but you are just watching how they manage their daily lives in an isolate location. All the activities will be created by themselves. It is set in a forest like area.

Both include book and the characters inside said book. Both include human falling in love with fiction character.

Both have FL fall in love with fictional ML. My Dear Warrior has more supporting cast involvement than in W.

It’s basically a remake except the night of the comet 2 has a happy ending and the plot is different. The only thing similar is the alternate universe concept!

Neglected rich boy has been cared for by his loyal poor bff/protector for ~years, yet when it comes to telling the whole truth about their *real* feelings, they have quite a difficult time getting there. In LA, the rich one returns from an extensive overseas stay & discovers their bff now seems to have eyes for someone else.. & a messy "mostly straight" triangle ensues (& is yet to be resolved years later). In WYEL, things are handled somewhat better, & with a much ~brighter ending, at least. <3
