Mirror: A Tale of Twin Cities

- both male protagonists which are Li Yifeng and Ren JiaRen are Merman
- both need to experience love and hate love stories and overcome many obstacles to be together.
- both are big IP drama work adapted from a novel.
- the plot is related to the sea, mermaids, etc...
- both are love story based on merman and immortality
Totally recommended and plus i love the actor LI Yifeng

Both shows have similarities. In order to make a change the characters are forced to gain power in a short amount of time. Dark energy is the key to save the day. In addition, the adventures and character developments take a similar turn.

Strong Female Lead, Mystery, Love Triangle, Many buties, Very interesing plot, Famous actors and actrees

This is similar to mirror twin cities and I hop both of these dramas will air sometime next year so I think both of these will be great dramas to watch

Mirror a tale of twin cities is a fantasy drama which gives all kinds of emotions to us.This drama also portays an unrequited love and it's pain in an interesting way.

They are both set in a fantasy world and are costume dramas. There are complicated family backgrounds/lineages and its a very similar vibe/feeling. Also! It just so happens that the FL of Twin Cities starred in this drama as well (as a second FL of sorts).

Similarities:
Both shows are romance fantasy/xianxia with aquatic demons (slightly different takes on it) and include the tension & cooperation between different ‘races/tribes’

both have slight love-triangles but the SMLs are mostly silently pining.
ML & SML have a grudging cooperation and evolving friendship, not just over shared love interest but also due to being leaders.

In both couples FL & ML are trying to protect their partner and instead are ready to sacrifice themselves
(this includes hiding things from their partner, I just mention it because I know some viewers are sensitive to this and don’t want to watch shows like that, but it’s not unusual for self-sacrificial xianxia plots ^^)


differences:
besides storyline differences, Mirror: a Tale of Twin Cities has slower storytelling and the couple is more on a ‘grown-up & introverted’ vibe while Song Of The Moon main couple is more ‘extroverted & youthful’

Each drama has their weak points, but I still overall enjoyed both and personally appreciate that the ‘love-triangles’ are more handled as ‘grudging & a bit awkward friendships’ between MLs & SMLs :)

Both dramas are Fantasy or Xianxia dramas. The stories involve immortal people and war among different clans.
