Both True Beauty and Namib explore how harsh Korean idol industry is. Idol industry in True Beauty is a side story but overall affects the characterization of both male leads. However, idol industry in Namib the center of the whole drama.
We need Han Seojun and Yoo Jinwoo (I mean Goo Jasung and Hong Siwoo, both are from 18 again kdrama) to have a collaboration please

In both dramas one of leads has issues with hearing, though plots and genre are different.
See your love - Taiwanese BL, with one of MLs using sign language and completely death.
Namib - SML (son of FL) lost hearing and barely can hear, being surrounded by family and ML, who protects him as a brother

If we're recommending Ryeoun shows, then Adult Trainee ep 3-5 is a must watch. Completely different character but amazing chemistry.
Namib is a much more vulnerable drama where his character is really at the mercy of other toxic individuals. Meanwhile Adult Trainee, a lot of his problems are self-inflicted from being a teenage boy.

Both shows have a similar starting point in terms of plot: FL is older, married and an experienced manager in showbiz who picks the ML and guides them into becoming a star. Bijo to Danshi is about the hard work and challenges involved in this journey and how the FL manages her personal life alongside all of it. There is also a hint of romance, but it's not the main plot.
Ryeoun seems playing similar character, like dealing with deaf character and musical aspiration. His interaction with his mom at this drama reminds me of his interaction with his dad in Twinkling Watermelon. His interaction with the other Jinwoo reminds me of his interaction with Yoon Chungah. But the most important is Ryeoun always have great chemistry with his fellow casts either male or female. However, Namib, along with Twinkling Watermelon and 18 Again shows Ryeoun's strong bromance chemistry with his fellow male actor
Yoon Sang-hyun and Ryeoun were playing as father and son in 18 Again, this drama serves as their reunion.
Yoon Sang-hyun's characters in both dramas have anger issues and communication issues toward their own wives to the point their marriages are crumbling.
Both of Yoon Sang-hyun's onscreen sons in Namib (Shim Jinwoo) and 18 Again (Hong Siwoo - coincidentally was Ryeoun's character) has a lot of similarities like grew into timid boys with lack of confidence, seeing their parents fought every day, being bullied at school until other guys (Hong Daeyoung - whose older version was portrayed by Yoon Sang-hyun but the one who protected was Lee Do-hyun, the younger version but under name of Go Woo-young ; Yoo Jinwoo - portrayed by Ryeoun) protects them from their own bullies.

Very similar concept, both dramas have an experienced idol manger who gets betrayed by the company they helped build. In entertainer the ML makes a band whilst the FL in Namib has only one individual talent so far. The ML in entertainer also has a romantic interest (the manager of the new group he's making). Both the leads mentor a struggling young trainee into becoming a star, the entertainer also has a lot more bromance
