A League of Nobleman

君子盟 ‧ Drama ‧ 2023
ALON is a bromance while TWD has a het couple, but both shows focus on the investigations with a friend group/found family.

Both shows have a similar vibe, mystic elements mixed with detective work.
Both include a major case conspiracy.
In both shows the group tries to clear someone's name.
could list more, but don't want to give spoilers ^^

Difference: ALON ML is a scholar trying to join the justice system & Sherlock type & hinted neurodivergent; while TWD ML is at the beginning a more daredevil constable & capable fighter (but unable to fight for large parts of the show).

During the Lantern Festival, Princess Huai Si mysteriously dies at a banquet. Li Pei Yi, the chief guard, and Xiao Huai Jin, the Lingtai Lang, are tasked with the investigation, uncovering that the princess was the murderer. Betrayed and wronged, she avenged herself by punishing her betrayer and the daughter of a powerful family before jumping off the Penglai Terrace to escape her marriage fate.

Li Pei Yi and Xiao Huai Jin then uncover a series of strange cases in the inner court, exploring the fate of women in the Tang Dynasty harem. In the process, Li Pei Yi unravels the truth behind a ten-year-old murder and exposes a conspiracy involving the right prime minister and a concubine.

Another ancient investigative team led by two male detectives and a eunuch. The eunuch is a grey character very much like one of the two leads.

Unlikely friends solve mysteries together. There's bromance (MLC wins this one), interesting stories, hidden tribes and sorcery, the works. Good atmosphere, personal plot linking the MLs, good support cast in both cases.

Eight hundred years ago, Xie Lian was the Crown Prince of the Xianle kingdom, beloved by the citizens. He ascended to the Heavens at a young age of 17; however, due to unfortunate circumstances, he was quickly banished back to the mortal realm. Years later, he ascends again–only to be banished again a few minutes after his ascension.

Obsessive ML characters, a common theme of wanting justice (in different ways), both are period/costume mystery/judicial dramas, not a lot of predictible romance (of any type), good side-kicks to the main characters.

Also, great casts in both dramas, and very good production values.

Both are historical/mysteries dramas featuring bromances where the leads are often on opposite sides.

While different time periods, both are historical/mystery dramas with a similar vibe, and interesting cases. One lead is trying to resolve the tragic death of someone close to him, and the other is an orphan with a master.

The Imperial Coroner is another ancient investigative team. It is more of an ensemble cast but the way the cases are solved are procedurals, which is similar to League of Nobleman.
Recommended by PeachBlossomGoddess
- Revenge
- Murder mystery
- Young bailiff and friends try to solve the case
- More realistic about people and common life than "A league of Nobleman" (which is rare)
- Well-paced and intelligent plot, highest quality production values
- Revenge is justice?

The title says it all. It also has two male leads although only one is the detective and the other is the muscle.
Recommended by PeachBlossomGoddess
Both dramas relate to crimes investigation by detective male leads. They are both in the same dynasty as well.
