Both dramas was set in the main leads' past lives, not so happy one. The story of young people in love.
Female lead was Male lead first love and vice versa.
ML was a genius but did not know how to treat FL better because he was so clueless when it came to love but did not want to look weak for her.
They would be separated but be together again.

That undeniable natural chemistry can not be beaten in both of these dramas. I won't say that story is similar but rather, a good story, friendship, supportive character, and the main similar part is one lead leaving the other to not let the other suffer in longing. Go..just go watch it. Reading here will spoil the fun.
Both are modern day bad boy/good girl romances, where the male and female leads have very little in common from the outside looking in.
Just Between Lovers, however, is a much more haunting and complex story about trauma. How trauma marks and changes you and how you can then be drawn to other people who have also suffered trauma, even if on the surface you are totally different. Also, Just Between Lovers allows the characters to change and grow in a way Lighter & Princess does not.

Li Xun is a cold, calculating computer programming ace who entered college as the top scorer of the national college entrance exams, earning him the admiration of all his classmates. However, he is not interested in participating in your regular college activities with his fellow classmates and has his own plans for his future. This mindset brings him into conflict with many of his batch mates as he often refuses to cooperate with them.
Zhu Yun, meanwhile, is a friendly and innocent young lady who has just begun her college life after doing everything her parents and society expected of her to the best of her ability. When she meets Li Xun, she feels conflicted. She worries that he is a disruptive influence and a possible troublemaker, but still feels somehow drawn to him. Although they seem to butt heads at first, they start to begin cherishing their time together. But when a life-altering incident threatens to separate them – just as romance was starting to brew – their affection is about to undergo the ultimate test!

Li Xun is a cool and calculating computer programming ace who gained special admission to college. To others, he can sometimes seem aloof and distant, but this is mainly down to his worldview: He sees life as one great big computer program, and only feels comfortable when he is in control of what is going on. He knows nothing of love – considering it to be an emotion that may be beyond his understanding.

What you can watch while waiting for "Never-Ending Summer":
"Lighter & Princess"!
Similarities:
- The typical "good girl x bad boy" trope, lol
- Break-up arc
- In both dramas, FL and ML have rather complicated relations with their families
Differences:
- Reversed familial circumstances of FL and ML in both of the dramas (L&P: FL's family is well of, while ML's isn't vs NES: opposite)
(My thoughts are only based on the novel)
