My Roommate Is a Detective

民国奇探 ‧ Drama ‧ 2020
Police officer Pang Hong Mei amid the many obstacles created by U.S. and Jiang spy agents, rescued Ji Danyang, a patriotic scientist who returned from the United States from the enemy spy. She accompanied Ji Danyang to Lumen City to participate in the "Water Drop Project". Enemy special forces formulated a sabotage plan codenamed "Operation Rock" and concentrated their forces and tried to destroy the "Water Drop Project." Pang Hongmei and Ji Dan Yang fought a life-and-death battle with enemy agents in Lumen, thwarted the enemy's conspiracy, protected the "Water Drop Project" and finally achieved the expected success. The couple who went through the test of life and death, also realized their dreams and firm ideals.

- both dramas are set in the republic period
- both dramas arguably feature a bromance
- both dramas deal with mysteries

however, Tientsin mystic has supernatural elements in it, and imo the mysteries are more interesting because of that. both dramas have lots of smaller mysteries and a bigger conspiracy behind the events.

Tientsin Mystic is a bit of a darker drama though.

Again both dramas are mystery/detective dramas
One of the main actors in unnatural Fire is the main lead in My roommate is a detective too.
Again... Heavily friendship/bromance focused
Multiple case solving while containing an over arching plotline
Buddy cop duo!

If u (by any chance )want to see it's Chinese version then "My Roommate Is a Detective" has the same plot. It's the exact copy of "Secret Royal Inspector".

set in a similar era. the 2 male leads meet each other and they help each other to solve crimes. has a bromance feel towards the 2 male leads. 1 is an actual detective and the other is just a helper/consultant. they gain popularity through the cases they work.

Both dramas have male leads who work together to tackle corrupt individuals and organisations whilst also revealing their back story and growing friendship. The bond between the two main characters is similar, the storyline is similar, the period is similar.

One is serious n the other is silly, haha.
