Genres: Mystery, Comedy, Romance, Sci-Fi
Age Gap [Drama Life], Age Gap [Real Life], Opposites Attract,

The two dramas are about time travel
the two dramas involve the complicated family relationship
and love story

One of the best time travel dramas... A different story, especially for fans of the "crime and investigation" genre, with amazing performances by the actors.

In both, the FLs have complicated, troublesome relationships with their mothers. Somehow they both accidentally go back in time to when their mothers are teenagers in high school. They befriend them and try to prevent their mom from falling in love with their dad.

Both MPS and ATCY are Korean dramas with romance, time travel, and mystery. Both attempt to alter the past. Both use a “device” to travel to the past. In ATCY, it’s a mixtape and in MPS, it’s a car. However, in MPS, the characters travel as their current selves, and in ATCY, the characters travel into an alternative version of themselves in the past. Overall, ACY is much more convoluted.

It has got similar themes, back to school, teacher-fake student bond, crime investigation, comedy ,small town setting and obviously the main actress ????

So as you guys know that atypical family is a very distinguished story than others
but I will suggest you to watch my perfect stranger because the story line is not obviously same but they can travel in past and the connection between main lead and female lead is awesome
the stories also very great it is about a serial killer so you guy should give it a watch I think if you like attypical family you might like my perfect stranger also

Zhang Jing Yi is the FL in both. The chemistry is natural. The relationship had depth. However, BEITD does not have a satisfactory ending.

Lots of similar tropes and plot points. Both dramas have an adult attending high school, both dramas include an engaging mystery, and more, just very lazy to name them all.

- Both is a crime-solving drama
- Both genre is mystery
- Both drama about finding a culprit of past case
- Both drama does not make it easy for you to guess the culprit

Differences
- In My Perfect Stranger, mc goes back in past to find the culprit
- In Chimera, mc stays in present but looking for culprit of the past case

Synopsis

The drama tells the story of how an ordinary girl Xia Guo chooses when faced with two different choices, and what happens. The drama is presented in parallel time and space. The different choices of the heroine will lead to different endings.There are the challenges and dilemmas of the big city; but on the other hand, there is the stability and triviality of the small town. In life it is always necessary to make concessions, without fear of loss, and moving forward to embrace that sense of the "extraordinary." If life could have other versions, and the "if" could be experienced, what would it look like? The drama realizes this "if" so that the heroine experiences two lives in parallel. How she will handle those choices is the big question.

"I live elsewhere" (from original title in chinese).
