On a Starry Night

星降る夜に ‧ Drama ‧ 2023
Both MLs are deaf and FL learn how communicate with them via sign language. Hoshi Furu Yoru ni is lighter and focused on side characters more than Silent, but both of them are feel good romance drama with no toxicity from the leads.

- about broken and burdened characters who are trying to make peace with the past and move on though they are different issues. ( mental illness vs death of a spouse , fear of intimacy vs professional misconduct).
- the Dr Female Lead with a phobia/fear or hiding some painful past incident.
- the positive and supportive working environment. Bosses in both dramas have similar characters and encourage growth of those around them by encouraging them.
- Drs have different professions though ( Gynecologist vs a Psychiatrist)

The vibe is totally different for each of these but, both feature a disabled person working in a clean-up business. One clean-up business is a bit more criminal than the other.

Takenouchi plays an aquarium employee named Kengo, who seems ordinary at first glance but actually possesses a secret that he would sacrifice everything in order to protect. Meanwhile, Ueto plays Risa, a young woman working in the sex trade in order to pay off her brother's debt, though her situation has led her to contemplate suicide. These two characters, both full of despair, meet each other and end up entering a contract marriage purely for its benefits. However, as they overcome various troubles, their relationship begins turning into true love.

The plot for these dramas are very different, but if you enjoy the change of traditional roles like in Hoshi Furu Yoru ni where the ML does the cooking and cleaning, Watashi no Oyome-kun is highly recommended wherein the main plot revolved around the expectations in gender. Anyway, both are good slice of life dramas with good comedy.

-Same subject matter of working with women at a clinic dealing with reproductive issues.
-Obstetrics and Gynecology
- Difference is from the nurse perspective vs Dr's perspective.

Love story about FL who is blind & ML who is not disable but they found love in each other. They support & understanding each other I really enjoy melodrama romance movie or dramas.

ML in both works for a company that cleans houses for the deceased. In Move to Heaven ML is autistic; in Hoshi Furu Yoru ni the ML is deaf.

Hoshi Furu Yoru ni has more romance and drama.
