Both are about rugby. For those who are unfamiliar with rugby, No Side Game provides more explanation. And you'll get to see a more amazing, mature play in this j-dorama. I guarantee, you'll be stunned by their game play, which The Winning Try pales in comparison. On the plus side, in The Winning Try, you'll get to see pretty guy playing rugby. ?Nevertheless, both are totally worth watching.

The plot of marrying the "brother in law" after older sister died and taking care of the child.
Smart FL
ML general/fighter
Slow burn romance
I think both of these dramas have interesting and original stories.

Light Chaser Rescue is a Chinese drama while Jirisan is a Korean drama (impacting their length). What they have in common is heroic rescuers that kind of make you want to become a rescuer yourself. Light Chaser Rescue is about a volunteer team and has no mystical elements. Jirisan is about forest mountain rangers and it has a ghostly melodramatic feel. Both FL are more cold whereas the ML are more warm, but Jirisan has romance only in the background unlike LCR which has it in the forefront.

Ghost Doctor is entirely comedic. Jirisan is entirely serious and mystical. Both have characters standing between life and death roaming limited areas as essentially ghosts. One lead actor appears in both dramas. While the vibe is entirely different, if you enjoy supernatural elements to emotional development stories that are more about life, some crime solving and a touch of romance in the background, you would enjoy both even though one is a comedy and the other a melodrama.

While Light Shop is more of a thriller with horror elements (nothing too crazy), Jirisan also shares a kind of mystical ghost presence. They also share the ML. Light Shop is about multiple characters and isn't a romance. Jirisan has some romantic elements but is ultimately about solving a strange reoccurring issue on the mountain. Both have melancholy and supernatural elements with deep love and affection.

Both have elements of love intertwined with past trauma. Both female leads are quirky and strange, and have a unique mystical talent (different ones in each drama). Both dramas are a mixture of a sinister past returning to the present yet they maintain a bubbly charming vibe. The male characters are emotionally cautious and closed off due to previous trauma. While both female characters also carry their traumas, they maintain a much more open and positive personality.

Both have a mystical element that ties the couple together with a mutual history that intertwines love and trauma making it bittersweet. Both female leads are quirky and "strange" but still have completely different personalities. Both male leads are emotionally closed off due to past trauma. Link: Eat, Love, Kill is more of a dark comedy whereas See You in My 19th Life is more bubbly.

Both have a mystical element and a bittersweet history of love with trauma and a lingering past. The vibe of Jirisan is much more serious and mystical, but sweetly enough, I am convinced they even filmed a scene in the same location. See You in My 19th Life is much more bubbly and the characters are younger than in Jirisan.

ML’s character reminds me very much of Xu Feng’s demon lord persona. Same vibe, sake pining after the FL, between love and hate, and having a complicated past .

The same interesting, layered, charming, funny, mysterious, tormented, and amazing male lead.
The same great bromance and friendship theme.
The same perfect blend of light and tragic moments, along with engaging mystery to solve.
The same exceptional acting performances, especially from the male lead.
The same amazing OST, and so much more!

Similar high teen vibes, competitions, friend groups etc combined with good plot and great acting
Production is also from the same company which guides more users in seeing the similarities

Duan Xiu Zi met Li Ming Yu for the first time at a wedding. She was stunningly beautiful but with the look of a good girl. She was forced by her family to paint the bride and groom, and Xiu Zi commented: “Boring woman”. But in the blink of an eye, Ming Yu gives him a big surprise! She cold-bloodedly destroyed her painting herself, ruining the bride's wedding. This aroused Xiu Zi's interest, and the two had a one-night stand before Ming Yu disappeared without a trace. Xiu Zi was fascinated and desperate to find her again...
