The most prominent similarity is the setting. This drama is set in the year 1987, immediately evoking a sense of nostalgia for that era. This shared timeline allows both shows to authentically capture the feel of the past, from the fashion and hairstyles to the social atmosphere.
The friendship, community, and romance. In this story, the central characters are immersed in a world of close-knit relationships, where the bonds of friendship are tested and strengthened. The narratives are driven by the evolving romantic connections that form within this backdrop.
Finally, the "BGM" is an excellent detail. The soundtracks enhance the retro vibe, creating a perfect atmosphere that immerses the viewer in the time period. This, combined with the themes of youth, love, and growth, makes watching A Hundred Memories a similar and enjoyable experience to My Perfect Stranger.

While this one seems more lighthearted in a way, Come and Hug me has the same FL lead and its crime heavy. While there is not time travel involved, I think the style and telling of these dramas are similar. Come and Hug Me is a more angsty slow burn however, I think they are pretty similar so if you haven't you could always give this one a try!
