For the first few episode of "Shining for One thing" , i was reminded of "Orange". The parallel universe and the death are the main component of the two stories. But, the whole plot is different. The first one is more romantic and mysterious. While the second one is more serious and mellow because of the mental health topic inside.

The realistic parts, the healing vibe, the mental health topic that was brought by the story. We could find them in these two dramas. That's why i was enchanted by them.

Going through the adulthood period is not easy. Every person is dealing with their own problem. Some people, because of some risk factors, need to endure more hardship. But, form those two dramas, i find hopes. The girls' friendship is a precious component there.

Note: The second one has more comedic scenes

The main similarity is that both deals with the confusion and accepting the feelings the MCs have for each other . And the cinematography is pleasant and artistic in both the series. The overall setting takes place in a quite place with tons of natural beauty. It's definitely a roller coaster of emotions.

Both shows are bl and have a male lead who's colour blind, they see the world in various shades of black, white and grey.

In both drama female lead is afraid of male lead (boss) without knowing the true personality of him which lead to funny incounters

A group of three girlfriends going through the ups and downs of life together. Both dramas show that having girlfriends is a bond of sisterhood where together, you can get through the toughest points of your life.

1) Male protagonists (Lan Ling Prince/PoLL and Wei Wu Xian/TU) wear a mask each.
2) Protagonists in both dramas (Yang Xue Wu/PoLL and Wei Wu Xian/TU) share the same sunny, cheerful, inventive disposition with a courageous, righteous and resolute heart to protect the weak and also loved ones. Perhaps so similar that there are actually two similar scenes: https://mydramalist.com/profile/whatever_weus/feeds/kDb5RFJ
3) Relationships (kinships, friendships) between the characters in both dramas touched me - tissues may come in handy at a number of points in the dramas

6) Beautiful and meaningful OSTs

Note for TU: TU while adopted from a bl novel, portrayed the male leads as confidants with strong brotherhood, and only bits of queer subtle for the experienced bl enthusiasts, in respect to the original bl novel. Chinese censorship has transcended the bl novel into a critical series showcasing Chinese culture, music, sceneries, costumes, intriguing plot on the protagonist’s ordeals going against society, using unorthodox methods to fight evil and help the weak.

The leads of the two stories are similar in their own ways, a morally gray male and a strong willed female. They both also has a older male father figure that the female lead butts heads with but ulimately respect each other. They both infuse romance, law, tragedy and comedy into a wonderful series.
