I've recently been rewatching FIYS and found myself finding the shows extremely similar. The storyline itself is quite different but it's more about the actual vibe of the show that makes them so attractive.
- both a workplace (FIYS is a gaming show tho)
- side characters very entertaining (ABP ppl who work there and FIYS the other ppl on the zgdx)
- very addictive
+ FIYS is definitely slower paced than ABP but it builds up nicely and don't get bored quick
I rec you sit through abt 6 eps before you try and drop the show, ofc it's not everyone's taste but it's a nice exciting watch :)

In the ultra-competitive world of e-sports, the all-male ZGDX OPL team is second to none. Armies of adoring female fans follow the team wherever it goes. But when one of the team’s star players suffers a hand injury, the tall, handsome, and notoriously hard-to-please ZGDX captain Lu Si Cheng will not be rushed into choosing a replacement.
The petite, lollipop-loving Tong Yao, meanwhile, is a budding amateur gamer – obsessed with OPL. Her skills are exceptional, but she is of the firm belief that in the male-dominated world of pro gaming, love is a big no-no – even though her own ex-boyfriend was a gamer. When the ZGDX team manager learns of her skills, he contacts her, thinking that recruiting her as the scene’s first female player will help score a major PR coup. Lu Si Cheng is dismissive of her initially, but eventually agrees to accept her as a substitute – a move that polarizes the team’s fanbase. But as they start to get to know one another better, could a closer bond begin to form between them?

Falling into your smile is a romantic Chinese drama which shows how a girl is the first to join a professional eSports team which is a male dominated industry. While Rich Man is a Korean drama which shows a romantic development between the CEO of game development company and an office worker. Both of these dramas have idol celebrities as their leads (Rich Man - Suho, EXO; Falling into your smile - Cheng Xiao, WJSN).
It is in my opinion even better than FIYS, mainly recommend this because Xu Kai is in it as well.
His personalities in these dramas are pretty similar though in AMA he's a little more goofy and fun (imo).
Don't want to spoil much but if you like war related dramas or military costume dramas this can be a nice one to watch! Also really like the acting in it.

"My Eternal Star" and "Falling Into Your Smile" are such cute chinese romance dramas.
Both male leads are legendary e-sports celebs (the best in the industry) and has a cold outter personality. In other words, they come off as rude and arrogant at first. ofc, they later start to open up and be soft to the female lead.
Both female leads are hard working and petite. They got that fragile and innocent vibe despite being rough with their friends (and the male lead).
The female lead's bestie also have similar personalities where they are more elegant and classy.
The male laead's friends (which are their team members) are also very similar - Cool and outgoing.
Both stories are taken in modern/current day - modern spaces.
To personally add, I think the production and overall story is on the better side of other chinese dramas. if you like one of these, you'll most likely like the other.

"THE WORLD OF FANTASY" is literally fantastic drama. It has 36 episode. MAIN FEMALE ROLE IS PERFECT. She will be an incredible character after ten episodes. Wait and see.
You might get a little bored in the first chapters, but then you'll want to finish all the chapters in one day. SO DON'T STOP THE DRAMA.
