Episode 1 of “ Drama Special Series Season 3: Sirius (2013)” is similar to “A Christmas Carol” because an identical twin brother gets into trouble trying to help his younger sibling who is being bullied.

Both films star Park Jin Young in a role where he stands up to bullies and tries to protect someone weaker than him.

A mentally impaired person is targeted and mistreated. Institutionalized people are mistreated. Corruption/abuse of power

Juveniles end up in prison and struggle against corruption and fellow prisoners for survival. Bullying and personal vendettas.

Young prisoners are subjected to awful treatment at the hands of their guards and fellow inmates. Stories of juvenile delinquents behind bars.

Ost, wuxia fantastic, sects, demons, travel with friends, magical skills, a man hunted, fights. Wu Xin is The son of the leader of the Demon Sect

They both have a disapproving parent that try to break them up bc they think they’re low and have no class because they are orphan and poor. In SLRP it’s the female lead’s mom. In SRS it’s the male lead mom. A they also have a spy main lead in SRS it’s both FL and ML in SLRP it’s male lead and his friends.

It's similar in genre and the general vibe. About treasures and good vs evil but who's to tell who's actually evil. Jianghu (martial arts wolrds) heroes and sects with treasured techniques. It's also similar in plotline in the beginning with every one after a treasure. Bromance !!

In this drama we also meet young warriors and friends with their magic weapons and on a personal journey. The difference is that here there is a lot of romance and tears between several past lives and new faces for the same characters in new times bringing new secrets to be unraveled together.

Although not quite similar in the actual sense, both female leads wanted to share their cooking and recipes and have people enjoy their food.

It's a complicated revenge plot with two star crossed lovers who fall for each other despite the circumstances against them. A very grey and multilayered ML, and a dynamic FL. Amazing chemistry between them. Along with beautiful cinematography, strong writing, and great music, this drama is iconic.

These 2 BLs are very different in tone, but do share a few key similarities:
Both of these stories take place in the upper grades of high school and have a significant subplot that critiques the education system as not benefiting all of its students.

The leads also have a rather similar dynamic of a flirtatious enemies-to-lovers-esque dynamic between a shy top student and a shameless classmate determined to make his mark. Both couples excel at chemistry that comes from their gazes to each other.

the references they made topnotch
the whole idea of the frienemies is thriving throughout both shows.
in BB they are in opposing facalties and family
and similarly in MSP they have the family opposition and school rivals.
let's not even get started on the ost o. m. g THE OST soo gooddd could listen all day if I could this goes for both the shows.
overall both good shows that should be watched!!!
