Same concept. A bureau that specifically handles the relationship between humans and monsters and a newbie who is different from his coworkers.

If you have watched Doctor Foster (the TV series where this drama was adapted from), you wouldn't have made a connection, but this Korean adaptation and SKY Castle both have themes of greed for connections to social elite.

Both also have high ratings in South Korea, and their mystery genre may have been also a big factor contributing into it.

The main characters both are waking up from Acoma and meet the second lead
They both have very funny moments and sad moments . Both of the dramas the main lead have to Adapt to what's happening and What words to say what words not say how many things they've missed #HowToUseAPhone
Both of the dramas are pretty funny and the relationships are pretty cute so I do recommend

these are both very dark films and include complicated love stories, the realism is similar and nothing in these movies is glamorised

The main character: a poor girl who was kicked out by a mean mother. She welcomes a grandmother with dementia, she meets her "arrogant" grandson (not so arrogant in MOO) and you know what follows.
In my opinion, the acting is better in Shining Inheritance but being a family drama gives My Only One a good point. Each character has its own plotline (though everything intertwines somehow) instead of one couple solving everything (SI).
Careful, My Only One is pure makjang while SI emphasizes more on business.

They're both about a rich guy who finds himself in a small town but eventually goes back to his rich lifestyle. Both female leads really like money lol and the forbidden love story in both just tears your heart apart because you're rooting for the main leads to be together so badly.

Akeanan is an outstanding school in all aspects: education, sports… and secrets.

Traffic comes to Akeanan to look for his sister Fah, who disappeared months prior and with neither the police nor the school finding any trace of her. In the course of his investigation, Traffic finds himself in Room 4/6 and meets the outsiders of the class: bad boy Andrew, the quiet Highlight, the strong and powerful Title, friendly and playful Jim Bae, and the academic genius Buntad.

Traffic gets an invitation from their teacher to join this group of boys, the secret shadow society known as Blacklist, dedicated to investigating the mysterious occurrences in their school.

Together, Blacklist will find out not just what happened to Fah but will also slowly uncover the deep dark secrets of Akeanan School

Both have strong chemistry between the two male leads / Bromance

Both are detective based; The sleuth of Ming Dynasty is more investigation and crime solving heavy

Both are adapted from BL novels but without explicit BL
