Both stories follow a small business owner who is somewhat jaded and disillusioned from a recent personal loss. They fall in love with a younger person who brings some hope and joy into their life, but that person is somehow secretly responsible for them potentially going out of business.
GMMTV's two musicals full of original songs where main leads have to keep their relationship secret.
Both take place in all-boy christian school; coming out in a heavily religious atmosphere; questioning your faith in face of homophobia; complicated relationship with a religious mentor figure; one of the leads is a rebel. Also just the vibes are very similar - melancholic, bittersweet, very raw coming-of-age story.
