- Song Joong Ki is the male lead in both
- Song Joong Ki has a younger sister who he takes care of on his own in both because her parents abandoned her.
- Both melodramas, although my youth is a melodrama in the chill way and the innocent man is more like a makjang melodrama.
SPOILERS AHEAD:
- Song Joong Ki is terminally ill in both (and it's revealed in the second half of the drama in both)
- Both have poorly written ending that have you wondering what on earth you just watched. After a time skip, Song Joong Ki is saved from his illness with no explaination whatsoever and reunites with the FL in a confusing fever-dream like way in both.
