Many scenes from Hello, Me! reminded me a lot of Hi Bye, Mama!, especially because the two shows depict a supernatural event that deeply affects the lives of a variety of people. What's more, both of them deal with parting.
the main similarity between the 2 dramas was that they both revolve around one character dying but becoming a ghost to deal with their problems before being able to be reborn.
Both of these shows are miniseries about personal issues that teens face. They both deal with pretty intense topic for the theme and they both deal with them perfectly. The main character is slightly naive and she has a strong group of friends, plus a super supportive boyfriend. I would say 17.3 deals more about sex and It’s Okay deals with more feminist issues.
Although these two seem very different, they actually have the same title with the title referencing the same thing: the mistiness/fogginess/obscurity of human emotions and interactions. Over all, Misty is better written and produced, but here are some other similarities:
- Not fluffy, more melo/dark.
- Complex female lead with layers who seems like she has it all but is actually struggling quite hard, both against the world and herself
- Complex male lead who is very in-love with female lead but strained relationship
- Couple that is essentially married in name and goes through relationship development
- Complicated political/workplace/societal environment with focus on the darkness behind the glamourous life of upper class

I don't really know how to describe it other than same vibe/aesthetic. Like there's a similar colour palette. Beautiful cast, funny moments a love triangle.
both are Ancient detective shows to do with murder cases. they pretty much start the same way investigating cases and solving mysterious deaths. under the power deals more with the political side whereas the detective deals more with the investigation and autopsy part.
similar ancient investigation/ detective costume drama. the two main leads remind me of each other. one is a detective/corner type and the other is more soldier than detective. their roles are switched from maiden holmes to the detective.
both are ancient detective shows. to do with investigations on murder and other such cases. both have one smart, cunning character very good at solving cases and another character that is more soldier than detective. he/she protects/ saves the smart yet cunning detective on more than one occasion.
Both dramas try to balance suspense and romance. "You're My Spring" has more focus on romance than suspense.
both have a strange way of conveying the story. both about consciousness and how easily it can be influenced by others
Both have feel-good vibes, a slow burn storyline and a wonderful ensemble cast. Both make you feel like your stress is being washed away with each episode..

Mature relationships of the leads, plenty of comedy. No cliches or tropes and all misunderstandings are worked out through proper communication. Every couple in YAMH are great friends or mentors to the others. Both series are well rounded and interesting.
Handicapped female lead also being chased by a psychopath for witnessing a murder. The big difference is that the female lead actually has a brain and the rest of the characters (other than the villain of course) were also smart and likable.
Both movies have male leads with light bleached hair. In both cases the male lead stands out from the rest of the classmates around them and in both theres highschool romance.
