it has a similiar feel. There is humour drama and a mystery to be solved. Although both stories are toatlly different.m PN is about a girl that travels into the past, SM is about a half Thia half Spanish girl that speaks English and doesn't fit it. Both have good endings although PN does has some sadness in it.

Both are about the embittered supernatural being ML who saves the dying FL for his own goals, but in the process changes and falls in love.

Both shows follow the main character whose first love disappears and then shows up again years later. In "Our Dating Sim" the main character's first love disappears and later shows up as a new employee at his office and I think "Jun and Jun" would follow a similar plot based on the synopsis.

Both MLs are wealthy, FLs are from a middle class loving family and the two become involved due to strange circumstances. The MLs start out toxic and cruel and then truly fall in love with the FL and are willing to give up everything for her. The SFLs are the ML's childhood friends and fiancées and a performer (ballerina vs. pianist) who become obsessed with the ML and determined to drive the FL away. Both FLs become pregnant and suffer a miscarriage due to an accident caused by the SFL. There is a SML who is always around the FL and comes to her rescue.

In both dramas, the main couple has a fairly healthy relationship.
Also, the female leads are humans*.

Both shows involve teams that play survival games, mainly capture the flag, but on a much larger scale. Plus, on both shows the contestants' physical ability, tactical skills, and teamwork were tested. The Soldiers is more military focused, but Siren also has a military feel.
