Both feature Michelle Yeoh as a calm swordswoman who absolutely kicks ass and has a sweet romance full of yearning and longing.
Both are excellent wuxia films that revolve around an item that everybody wants to claim and is fighting over: In CTHD, it's a sword while in RoA, it's a buddhist's corpse.
They are both insanely cool and a must watch if you like action, wuxia and romance together.

Both are similar in that one of the male leads leaves his office job due to workplace-abuse and learns to enjoy life a little more with the help of the free-spirited male lead.
To Each His Own focusses more on workplace abuse and handles serious topics such as suicide while Restart is light-hearted in comparison and focusses on the relationship between the male leads.
Both are exceptional and if you like one, you're likely to enjoy the other.

Although both dramas have a different story and plot, they have three very big similarities.
The first one is that both shows depict a non-toxic gay relationship in a respectful way with no fetishisation.
The second similarity is that within this gay relationship, one of them is confident in their sexuality and is not afraid to hide it whereas the other is a bit more self-conscious and does not feel as if they are ready to be 'out' in public.
This then leads to the third similarity, where the couple navigates through societal issues to better understand one another.
Both are great and if you love one, you'll most likely enjoy the other :)

Both are incredible Japanese dramas that focus on a gay couple in the most sweetest and wholesome way possible.
The biggest similarity is the fact that both dramas have no toxic tropes at all and are instead realistic and respectful in their depiction of a gay couple in Japanese society. The couple isn't fetishised at all and can be seen as positive representatives in normalising LGBTQ+ content.
The biggest difference would be that Cherry Magic focusses on the couple falling in love while KNT depicts the couple's everyday life living together.

Both series involve 2 male leads who try and save a bankrupt/corrupt company,
The biggest difference would be that in Chief Kim, the male leads go from enemies to friends while in A2A, they remain friends all throughout. Chief Kim also has a more comedic tone while A2A is straight business and finance.
Both have a great story about business and finance, as well as a good bromance.

Both have two male leads who have a (somewhat) close relationship but are opposites when it comes to their morals. One character is more involved with the underworld while the other character is a righteous police officer, meaning they butt heads frequently but still work well together.
Both dramas have that same gritty feel to them and are focussed on crime.

Similarities:
- Both focus on an office romance between two men
- Both have lots of comedy in them and have a similar style of exaggerated anime-style humour (facial expressions, over-expressive acting etc.)
However, Cherry Magic focuses more on the development of a serious relationship while Same Difference just focusses on outlandish humour.

The biggest similarity between the two shows is the dynamic between the two leads, who are police officers tasked to work together and solve cases. One of the officers is very serious and has a mysterious history whereas the other is more outgoing and 'fun'.
In both shows, the two leads are reluctant to work together but over time, become very close and work well together.
The biggest difference in the shows is that MIU404 is more comedic and wholesome than OS, which is grittier and deals with more serious crimes.
Both are good watches if you are looking for a crime-solving duo that has good chemistry.

Both shows feature a main trio consisting of two males and one female, all of whom are friends.
Both share the similarity of the two main male leads starting off on the wrong foot and then later becoming extremely close friends with lots of bromance. Both are originally based off of novels (Drama King based on a BL novel while XL is heavy bromance)
XL is darker and more serious than The Drama King, which is instead lighter and more comedic. XL is for an older audience while The Drama King is for younger audiences, but both have the same general feel to it, one is just more serious than the other.
In both shows, the female lead is a maid of the rich male lead and is completely faithful to him.
