I know that both stories are quite different, but I am recommending Tree with Deep Roots for Arthdal fans and vice versa because they have the same writers.
>Both dramas have:
== more twist and turns and character revelations (whether it is an additional character or something about a character is revealed
== Song Joong Ki's high class acting --> though he's only in the first 4 episodes + episode 9 in Tree with Deep Roots, it is worth watching if you want to see his good acting skills. Even if you started both shows for him, you will find yourselves also immersed on other characters as well the actors that portray them (whether it is an older version of Joong Ki's character, a mysterious swordsman, a mysterious guy with a mask, or even the villains)
== I think it's noteworthy that the shows also put importance in education and literacy. Like how the wahans or the poor Joseon people were taken advantaged because they were seen as less "educated"

Very, very different. But I know that most Song Joong Ki fans became fans through this drama and might see him as a mediocre actor if he fails to succeed after DOTS, thus I am recommending a drama he did before DOTS which shows his capability as an actor.
The drama I'm showing is "Tree with Deep Roots". It is one of the first dramas where Song Joong Ki shows great acting. He appears on Episodes 1-4 + episode 8 or 9 (can't remember which of episode 8 or 9 he appeared). You can see how versatile his acting is.
I am not downplaying the other actors either. Han Suk Kyu is also someone who gave a really great performance as the adult version of the King Sejong played by Song Joong Ki. Jang Hyuk and Shin Se Kyung also gave great performances. The plot, while being only a fictional version of how Hangul is made, is a very plausible possibility on how Hangul is actually made. The characters are compelling.
The very few similarities they have is that, the many of the main characters, whether the possibility of being together with their loves is high or not, have rarely backed down on their principles and are always focusing on serving the people that they serve (except perhaps Jang Hyuk's character in the first few episodes of Tree with Deep Roots)
