Both are action movies about mafia stories. In both many people are shot/killed. DoA is way more brutal and bloody than Moon Child but parts of the story are alike, because all of the protagonists are fighting their own war against the mafia (yakuza)...

L, an angel who’s endlessly fascinated with the human world, gets into trouble when she unthinkingly saves the life of Han Shi Yeong, a man who was meant to die. To make up for her mistake she must guard him on Earth for one hundred days and keep him safe from Hwan, a death god who is required to collect his soul. Both supernatural beings must contend with the knowledge that whichever one of them fails by the end of the hundred days will be erased from existence, and the longer they stay on Earth the further their powers fade and the more human they become.
