Gritty, great acting, edgy topics and characters. The knockout focuses more on the psychological and societal aspects of the criminal world.

Both have " married " leads from earlier in the drama. There is a difference in the actual marriage but they are seen as married.

The MLs in Time of Fever grew up together and develop feelings for each other in high school. They eventually separate when one of the ML goes off to college in Seoul. The continuation of their story picks up in the sequel, Unintentional Love Story.

Our Dating Sim starts very similarly. One of the MLs believes he has an unrequited love. They separate when high school ends and they meet again as adults, in the workplace.

- One of the leads ghosts the other (in TMS2, they were together before one leaves whilst in ODS, the lead confessed and left)
- the leads passionately pursue the other
- TMS2 is a bit darker whilst ODS is lighter but the chemistry of the leads in both shows is very natural

- both leads meet after a long time
- one of the leads return back to their hometown after a successful work life
- in both shows, there is a side couple involving a single parent
- There is a close relationship shown between the child of the single parent and the new partner

Leads are both abused since a child and was helped by someone who actually has their own hidden struggles. Both also experience an abusive relationship. I kept thinking how this had the same formula as Wandering but a toned down version which leaves you with the warmth of a found family. Wandering on the other hand had a more solid plot but everything stays in the dark—it all just gets heavier. If you're the type who like movies that deal with serious topics that's got top notch actors and a seasoned director, you might want to try Wandering.

- In both one of the partners ghosts the other
- in both one of the leads is passionate in pursuing the other
- both delve into deeper topics like mental health issues
- both have angst
