Both feature a conflict between the best friends as a major plot point.

Both have strong bromances.

Although they differ greatly in genre and plot, they both have similarities:

- Both feature the developing friendship between two high school boys, and how they go from strangers to inseparable

- In both, one of the boys is stoic, strong and lazy in their studies while the other is very studious, intelligent and physically weaker. The dynamics of their friendship are similar, where they take time to warm up to each other, with circumstance pushing them closer.

- Both feature bouts of hand-to-hand combat, though WHC is a lot more violent and has way more fights than ONHCT, which is more of a supernatural genre.

- Both have emotional plots!!

- Both end in a similar way :(

Both are sequel series that feature a plot-driven continuation of the original work, which is more character-driven.

both feature a teen/young adult who was previously timid and bullied, trying to live their lives normally after committing a life-altering act of violence that has hardened them into numb, unfeeling people with soft spots for those they care about

both lead characters are extremely weak at first, yet refuse to back down, either using their perseverance or intelligence to battle against stronger opponents despite their physical disadvantages

both feature the main characters getting caught up with a larger organisation, and personally attacked by the leaders of said organisation, whom they must battle with using hand-to-hand combat

both are tales of the underdog who only fight to protect the people and friends they love

Both focus on weak and timid teenage boys who experience bullying at school, which pushes them to learn how to fight back. As they grow in their fighting skills, they also mature and develop in personality, making new friends and enemies along the way. Both become underdogs and work hard to get stronger and better.

RB focuses more on MMA and structured competition, while Boyhood features street boxing, but both include a lot of satisfying ass whooping.

Both revolve around a codependent relationship between a senior and a junior in their respective fields of art (HER is literary while Double is performance art) as the junior eventually eclipses the senior in skill.

Both codependent relationships feature a popular, extroverted senior and a shy but talented junior and are hinted to be romantic but 'interrupted' by an outside influence - from there, the story differs.

Both have similar themes but are still very different in execution (Double >>>)

Both revolve around a skilled swordsman/woman known to be the best and have their own fighting style.

Both leads want to let go of their past, keep their identity a secret and live a normal life but end up getting involved in the drama to protect the ones around them.

MLC is a bit more light-hearted, comedic and revolves around solving mysteries while RoA has more action, swordplay and martial arts - but both have similar premises

both are supernatural-themed, snappy, fast-paced and have similar styles of dead-pan humour.

both have leads who can communicate with the dead to resolve their last wishes and find out the backstory of their death (in the movie, its only 1 ghost whereas the show has many).

they both begin as comedies that progress wonderfully into sentimental stories that hit you hard (u may cry lmao)

both are bromance-heavy Taiwanese productions and if you like one, you'll defs like the other.

Both dramas seemingly begin as cute little romances that go on to deal with heavy topics such as grief and acceptance on matters such as terminal illness and death. Both shows do so in a beautiful, emotional way, evoking plenty of sincerity.

Both relationships are between boys who don't really get along at first but have an insane attraction drawing them together anyways. They experience a first love that is pure and genuine but intruded upon by serious plot advancements.

Both are sweet and will make you shed a few tears.
