These two have so much in common!
One thing that stood out to me was how we see the retro story of the past heroes come into the story. So, while this story is about our young heroes, it really ends up getting told through reliving and uncovering the past stories of the previous generation. This is totally how Word of Honor tells its story too.
Also, I felt that the storyboarding feels very similar.
Also, the main leads are, one from the demon sect and one from the righteous sect. The story also has a similar unfolding of uncovering the righteous sects' secrets and in turn seeing the demon sect in a different light. There is a same theme produced through the making the characters and viewers look at what is good and what is evil - it isn't about what sect you are in but the individuals intentions and actions. Can our MLs face dispelling prejudice from both sides and find a harmonious solution?
Both dramas also deal with zombie armies!

•FML has great fighting skills ( in POJ I really love how she fights with her butcher knife)
•Family members had to die for schemes(in GTG FML's aunt had to die )
•ML has a hidden identity (has a very high position and respected, feared by all)
•Political schemes, strategies, war (In GTG war between sects and demons, among the sects)
•They get apart thinking they won't meet again
Though it's not similar, but in POJ , The side couple has a very toxic, sadistic love-hate relationship (Qi min and Yu Qian Qian) though I hate forced painful torturous relationship, but they did a great job. Yu Qian Qian's hatred towards Qi min, and Qi min's obsession towards Yu Qian Qian has added some nice spices in this drama.
The storyline of POJ is very great. I couldn't skip even a minute, I had to watch every minute of this drama because it's very addictive.
If you like strong FML and ML, great fighting, wuxia plot with journey to save the country and family, work together with friends to solve problems, and you don't mind a slow burning love then POJ is for you. 100% recommended. A must watch.
And if you love fantasy, ML chasing FML storyline with friendship, family love and protect everyone, then GTG is for you.
