Nirvana in Fire

Both ML are highly intellectual and both are hiding their identities while working for the court trying to resolve their tragic past of being framed for rebellion. The vibe is also similar as is the ending.

Both are breathtaking dramas with excellent acting, direction and scenery. Both should be required viewing for drama addicts - hehehehe.

Both have many political schemes. smart protagonists and you always crave for more eps!

In Nirvana in Fire, the protagonist succeeds in every situation while in Royal Nirvana, the main character fails a lot and you suffer more when you watch it.

Both are excellent in their own ways :)

same kind of illness
secret idenaty
both mc's are very intelligent
same kind of subtle romance

For the richness of the characters here indeed the characters are also quite consistent, so you viewer, stay well focused haha

the intrigue is quite complex but thank god we do not get lost, on the contrary we are sucking

and the budget is crazy and it shows! a regale ocular one like the other!

Huang Jin Tai is basically a very simplified version of Nirvana in Fire. If you enjoyed loyaty between the two leads and the revenge plot for the unfortunate army, you'll enjoy Nirvana in Fire.

At first, it seems like the shows have little in common. The Myth is a time traveling-adventure-comedy drama and Nirvana in Fire is a historical-political-war-revenge drama plot. Although both portrayed by Hu Ge, the respective leads appear very different, Yi Xiao Chuan (The Myth) is a childish troublemaker from modern-day with a penchant for womanizing, while Mei Chang Su/Su Zhe (Nirvana in Fire) is the mature, elegant gentleman strategist. At first, I thought the Myth was only a time-traveling Hu Ge comedy that didn't take itself too seriously. Then, Yi Xiao Chuan's character started to change. As Xiao Chuan's role in the drama changes and he starts to be involved in the court and the battlefield, the drama becomes a lot more like Nirvana in Fire. There's political intrigue, battles, strategy, and inventive plots. I'm at episode 38 right now and just raised my score from a 7.0 to an 8.5. If you liked Hu Ge in Nirvana in Fire, give The Myth a gracious chance. You may be surprised.

ok, it's only 6 ep on Sword Snow Stride and I might edit this later, but for now : I enjoy this serie as much as I enjoyed Nirvana in Fire (and that's a huge compliment as NIF is my fav chinese drama of all time haha)

The mood is heavier and more "realistic" in NIF and the story isn't the same, but in both series you have solid plots, built stones after stones,and it's a real pleasure for the brain.
Characters are slowly appearing and they all are promising.

Revenge plot galore, great productions, great acting (personally like Nirvana in Fire a bit more because it felt more cohesive and Hu Ge was an amazing actor... however, same can be said for luo jin in The Princess Wei Young)
The romance in nirvana in fire is more toned down than in WeiYoung. Both are highly recommended if you like smart heroes/heroines, political drama, and revenge

Similar storylines and plot. They both have power struggle, political intrigue, and swon brothers. Cinematography and setting are also quite similar.

Both deliver a complete story - solid actors/cast - LONG - tactical/strategic power players - survival - revenge - LOVE.

Same as Nirvana in Fire, Draw the Line also about justice and morality. Both dramas were acted by Jin Dong too, this make me relate these 2 dramas.

In NIF, Mei Chang Su was almost a single fighter to bring the justice for his father and troops, in DTL, the cases are from famous real cases and the judges are the fighters to bring justice in our nowadays society.

Just as NIF, DTL has countless life lessons we will regret if we miss them out. They makes us rethink and open our mind in unexpected ways by understanding both sides (defendant and plaintiff) dilemmas.

These two dramas are gems and become one of few valuable dramas to watch in our short lifetime.

Both shows are about the fight for succession of the throne after a relatively stable time! They have incredible political twists and turns & no one is really who they appear to be. The chessboard is literally constantly changing with each event. While NiF is a longer palace drama and features slower & hidden political machinations for the throne, Queen Woo jampacks most of that fight in just 8 episodes.
