The same events and time period, but one is a drama and the other a documentary. Both are very difficult to watch, but important and moving.

Similar love triangle. Many misunderstandings between the main couple.

Also in part 2 of the first season of Unique Lady, the FL agrees to go away with the SML, just like in ATWIL, but ends up returning to the ML after discovering he was wounded protecting her.

If you enjoy watching a bl with dark themes such as violence and suspense, then you would enjoy these two! Must watch bl's if that's your cup of tea.

The overall tone of My Secret Love seems to match that of the BL storyline in Kiss Me Again (the prequel to the Dark Blue Kiss BL). In addition, they are both Enemies-To-Lovers college dramas involving a more studious lead.

Enemies-to-Lovers involving the school's lead hazer/pranker. SOTUS is the blueprint for this plot that My Secret Love appears to make allusions to.

A quirky FL from the present day ends up in the body of a different girl in the past and has to live her life (dealing with a fiancée, etc.). Both have a fluffy, fun feel with a few serious moments.

Under the Skin and Medical Examiner Dr. Qin are crime dramas with a ML who is a specialist in their field. The main characters of both share some nice bromance and friendship throughout their case solving.

Our society is full of inequalities and high school is when you start to understand it very well: Girl A is prettier than you, guy B is better at sports, maybe because he inherited the right genes,, C's family provides him/her with all kinds of things you can only dream, D is smarter and will go to best colleges soon, ...
Or maybe you're that A, B, C, D, ... but in any case, at that age, we feel all the differences very well, in one way or another.

The well-made movie, 'Around the Edge of the Stand' has a simple message: All these differences don't matter much if you follow your caring adults' wise words & just positively keep trying (Ganbare!) without showing jealousy or any negative feelings. You'll find happiness, sooner or later.

Now if you like the movie's message, just as a challenge, I'd recommend 'All about Lily Chou Chou', a movie with the opposite message, such that if we consider the former a piece of propaganda, 'All about Lily Chou Chou' will be counterpropaganda!

And this was my coolest movie recommendation, maybe the coolest movie recommendation of all time:)
