Two films with almost identical plot points.
Both are crime thrillers set in Southeast Asia that rely on unexpected plot twists to keep viewers engaged.
Justice, family protection, and the blurred line between right and wrong are central to both films.

Hidden Blade (2023) and Harbin (2024) offer a similar mix of historical espionage, political intrigue, and high-stakes deception. While Harbin follows Korean independence operatives in the early 1900s, Hidden Blade unfolds during World War II in Republican era China. Both films feature spies navigating shifting allegiances under colonial rule.
Like Hidden Blade, Harbin embraces a noir aesthetic—moody lighting, shadowy figures, and a constant sense of tension. Woo Min-ho delivers the same level of visual richness and period authenticity, blending stylish cinematography with brutal realism. Both films are anchored by strong lead performances—Tony Leung and Wang Yibo in Hidden Blade, Hyun Bin in Harbin—adding depth to their morally complex characters.
Though independent stories set in different countries and eras, Harbin almost feels like a natural prequel to Hidden Blade, tracing the legacy of resistance and espionage in East Asia.

Both have a transmigrated FL that is relatively intelligent and falls for the supposed "bad guy" of the original story that they inevitably change.

BLs based on pop bands where some of the members have to choose between love or being an idol and realize their dreams.
***NON-PLOT SPECIFIC CONNECTION SPOILER ALERT***
Both of these series are productions of Taiwan. There is an interesting moment in the final episode (episode 12) of Be Loved In House: I Do when Aaron Lai’s character has a literal run in with Wayne Song. Wayne’s character speaks some words of wisdom and then as Aaron character leaves, Wayne’s character tries to remember where he recognizes him from. Swimming in High School. A cameo and nod to Swimming Battle where they both were in the cast as support characters.

All about, love and sacrifices for family, loved ones and friends that evil can never ever understand love.
STTS is about a girl who enters a fictional world and learns to navigate. She has the power to freeze the world because she entered through her TV. Therefore she can freeze the world using her remote. Very comedic and less romantic but hard to let go once you finish.
DP is a romance about an author who enters her novel. She has to fix her BE from inside the book and must navigate the dangerous waters. She has no golden finger aside from her memories of the book and character settings. She uses her knowledge to solve multiple cases and gain the trust of the characters.
They both include a girl going into a fictional world. They have the enemies to lovers troupe and a fml that is very bright, infectious and a bit nosy. They tend to eavesdrop a lot and try to avoid death while in the world.
There is a huge difference though. DP is a wuxia drama, so no immortals but there is qinggong. STTS is a xianxia drama so there is immortals and demons.

Another show that encapsulates loneliness. The show thoughtfully presents a main character, an introvert, who travels to work and back each day. Slowly, she comes out of her shell and engages with the world around her.
Slice of life. A young woman in a transient time in her life. We follow her day to day life as she heals and reconnects with her childhood. She creates delicious, seasonal, nostalgic recipes. A healing story.
Both of them have main characters that rely on each other heavily. The vibes and atmosphere are also quite similar and both have a heaviness as well as a soft angsty vibe.
