- the action scenes are very good and well executed
- both have main characters who are fighters
- both have a wholesome and strong bromance where they'd risk everything for each other
- both have 8 episodes and are well paced, binge worthy
- crime and corruption storylines
- overall vibes are similar too

It literally have the same vibe (and same Ikuta Toma!), two Cops trying to make justice in their own way, a hidden group inside that hunts high lvl criminals, hopefully Daimajin also will be as amazing as Ouroboros!

They are both about making changes in the past to have a better life in the future.
I liked how both series explored how one choice can drastically effect other peoples lives.
I thought the chemistry between lead actors was better in BMF,
I did like 609 Bedtime Story but it did have some confusing parts in it,

-both are adapted from novels written by the same author.
-both dramas are xianxia
-the lead couple starts by bickering then become friends and then fall in love
-both have adorable couples and characters
-both can be hilarious
-both have a heart touching story
-lighthearted

Both have the common themes of love and riding public transport together every day. Both are short and sweet.

The two dramas have a firefighter male lead. The leads of both shows also meet again in the future.
However, in one drama the leads were together but separated because of family. For the other one, the male lead rescues the female lead and they meet again.

Both dramas have a firefighter male lead. The female leads got saved by the male lead in the past and the leads meet again in the present.

Both dramas are set in modern times during youthful school years of the main cgaracter's lives. They share a common theme of slice of life and romance.

Closer to you is focused on building relationship with someone you really regret not talking much to.
The male lead chases the female lead and we get to hear his inner-monologue of regrets and hope.

When I Fly Towards You is focused on the present experience and going through the years together.
The female lead chases the male lead and mainly we see her perspective in this drama.

They both talk about the experience of a youth and share a plot of overcoming difficulties and differences together.

(Really recommend checking the other drama out if you liked this drama. The main reason is because its set in school setting and focus on slice of life.)

Both dramas have a complicated relationship between the two leads. The leads are powerful and even stronger when they work together. Both male leads appear cold to people who don't know them but unconditionally love the female lead and will do anything to protect her. The female lead is devoted to protecting the male lead and suffer a lot for it. The plots involve evil royalty and political scheming. Both dramas are serious but not tragedies.

Both kdrama has gynecologist male doctor. And I am looking forward to Lee Minho playing that type of character.

Both kdrama has different genre. HP is doctor slice of life type kdrama. And Ask the stars (when stars gossip) is space genre.

This drama is similar because it has something to do with spiritual Rome and afterlife type of events. It’s similar and different at the same time in it’s own way!!

Office setting. Boss- subordinate relationship. Tho rakdiao is a sitcom but it had a different take on BL. The character development and the chemistry between the main leads are off charts. But you have to bear with the first few eps to get used to comical and nonsensical behavior of side characters.

The series will take place in a Chinese restaurant. Chef Seo Poong, a chef who goes from being a star chef one day to the cook at a failing neighborhood Chinese restaurant the next. Dan Sae Woo, meaning “sweet shrimp”, lives a life of privilege and leisure—she accepted no gifts on her wedding day because her father gave her a check for 300 million won, and she enjoys horseback riding and fencing. Her greatest moment in life happens to coincide with a random bowl of jajangmyun, which leads her to undergo a big change and begin a new life.
