Northward and Go Ahead share a similar vibe in their portrayal of family dynamics and the bonds that form when neighbors grow up together. Both series delve into the emotional complexities of relationships within close-knit communities, where characters navigate life’s challenges alongside one another. In Go Ahead, the focus is on a group of friends who become family, dealing with personal struggles and evolving emotionally, while Northward similarly highlights the deep connections between neighbors and the growth they experience as they face life’s ups and downs. Both shows emphasize the importance of familial love, personal development, and the way that shared experiences shape the characters' identities over time.

Almost the same time period in China. Although this is not about the canal life, it's still has that community theme. It's similar to Northward in many respect especially because its about family, neighbours, friendship & love. Their struggles in the fast developing challenges of China at the timdle.
