Similar plots. Both plots have revolve around fulfilling their dreams and redemption. Both leads are former juveniles delinquents but want to return to and succeed in a sport they once had passion for before being sent to juvie. There’s romance too.

Both MLs have occupations dealing with the judicial system. They were both influenced greatly by their deceased parent, and were orphaned at a young age. Both have strong values and morals.

Strong FL is here as well. Surrogate father/father figure impacts/influences their beliefs and decisions and an incident involving them influences ML to make a big decision and take action.

Overall environment at school/youth correctional training place is filled with crooked officials.

A lot of fighting, and both protagonists seek revenge.

Endings are similar.

Both dramas are kinda similar as they have the female lead as the ghost and the male lead as the human who can see her.. Both dramas have mystery surrounding the female leads death & supernatural aspects, and both dramas have a mix of romance, comedy,drama

(Used same summary from the Korean drama recommendation summary).

Both dramas are very similar, and have the female lead as the ghost and the male lead as the human who can see her.. Both dramas have mystery & supernatural aspects, and both dramas have a mix of romance and comedy. (I took the words from the person who rec’d Korean version)

MLs are wanting to work for success, and are looked at as the lesser people in society.

FLs have a wealthy background. They’re both really naive and sacrifice their love life for their career.

Second couples have the same vibe.

The fight for justice trope is executed the same way. Villains are brought down from their high and fancy roles/titles. Both male leads have a strong sense of justice and similar circumstances (both were orphaned and their parent(s) were killed by the villains).

Female leads are professional, headstrong, and work alongside the male lead with no second-guessing. Both male leads have a group of friends that help them get the job done.
