In his Chinese film, "Scent," Park Shi Hoo plays Kang In Joon, a Korean interior designer...who finds love when he meets an innocent Chinese girl...it's directed by Jessy Tseng who directed award-winning art house film Big Blue Lake.

Both are historical mini dramas in which the FL believes the ML killed her father and she hates him. Both leads marry early on in the drama, followed by a lot of angst and misunderstandings.

Both are historical mini dramas with a ton of angst, FL misunderstanding and suspecting the ML, and a tragic ending.

In this BL drama, the main character finds himself transmigrated into a game, where he endeavors to guide the second male lead towards a better path, steering him away from the bad future that awaits him within the game.

I love how natural the scenes look knowing the language difficulty. Mew's performance is amazing, how he reflects every emotion of the character. It was short but it leaves me looking forward to next Monday.

It's also tells the story about main lead helping those who have passed away and doing everything they can to let them leave without regrets

Both: Theme about death. Each episode 1 character dies, episodic format.

Differences: Loss.Time.Life has no main leads, but changes leads every ep,
vs The Midnight Studio also has an overaching storyline with same leads (but also has episodic format/guest stars with own story that ep)

Hina, a student at Nikko High School, goes out one evening with her classmate Beniko. They get split up and Hina ends up in a strange meeting with a man named Ikumi in a game arcade. The next day, Ikumi turns up as the new teacher at her school. Ikumi doesn't seem to recognize Hina but the wheels of fate are slowly moving to reunite them in what is a passionate story of forbidden love.
One of the main underlying themes of this drama is death. Another important theme is the struggle Hina and Ikumi have in trying to realize the difference between love and dependence... or is there a difference?
Not just a remake of the 1993 version; it takes place at the same school, but with different characters and situations.

Both dramas deals with theme of death.

Death's Game has ML dying over and over each ep and TMS has a different guest character dying each ep.

Both good dramas. ??

The female leads are both doctors
The male leads are also doctors
They both go through a bumpy road to see if they like it each other or not
The leads of both shows also meet again in the future.

shujinko reminded me a lot of around 1/4 because it is centered around a group of friends who each have their own storylines but they cross ccasionally . Around 1/4 would be the more mature and adult centered version of shujinko
