A college-aged BL with a plot revolving around a student who works as a fortune teller. Both shows contain leads in their first roles.

Both have FL who
- had a wrongful death
- came back to the past
- goal is revenge
- met ML in the past lofe and somehow cooperated in the current life.

They are both worth watching purely only for vibes and the stunning visuals but honestly what more do you need

The shared rhetoric in this drama is its characterisation. How a character can be made so annoying and hated yet compelling., in a world that’s so merciless it leaves you behind as soon as it’s leeched you dry

A normal girl Xia Guo is faced with a difficult dilemma where the two choices will lead her toward two utterly different lives. Would she choose to live a home-sweet-home life with her boyfriend in her hometown or seize the opportunity to forge a successful career in a metropolitan? Which way would make her life "a little less normal"?

Both dramas are set in Xinjiang. The main characters face challenges and overcoming obstacles to realize their dreams.

They are both based on the same Manhwa.

Both ML making a deal to save their mother - then their mother turning young

both are based on the same real life hwaseong serial murder case, but they explore different phases and perspectives of the story.

Sci-fi thrillers.
Group of people are mysteriously transported into an alternate version of the world they know.
High risk, multi dangerous circumstances.
Slight romance.

Both:
-FL are trying to break free of systems in fictional novels
-ML are 'cold' ceos, PR gets way less romance or screen time with ML
-have the same pacing and quality
-FL are resolute, PR more morally grey and willing
-have 'happy' but not fully 'satisfying' endings
-have unique system settings or features, different than the basics

PR is categorized as Revenge whereas LIH is Comedy

Fantasy and action with Cha Eunwoo starring in both dramas. Eunwoo does some of his best work in the action genre and he is quite versatile too.

they both have two male leads who bond but later realise they have opposite goals.
i think both male leads in both dramas truly cared for each other and empathised on a certain level but couldn’t go against their own beliefs.

This drama is about the sweet, trusting friendship between 2 college girls. Yuko and Setsuko are 2 'trend-obsessed' girls who have no particular purposes in life. They didn't have much in life, except for their wardrobes full of fancy attires and their 'self-proclaimed' beauty. The storyline traces their struggle in life: friendship, love, academics, work, etc.
