A drama about healing, change, friendship and family bonding. HCCC is a really sweet nd peaceful drama to watch when you are in a bad mood or need some change from action/thriller/crime dramas. This drama also has amazing cinematography and a beautiful scenery. Great chemistry between the actors and a beautiful romance!!

They are both psychological dramas in which the ML holds back his feelings to protect everyone around him. The difference is that one's about a psychopath serial killer father and the other is about a antisocial personality author.

both female leads are "uncaring" of the social norms and they say and do things that seem "weird" to other people.

IONTBO is definitely a much more romance based show and Flower of Evil focuses more on the crime/thriller aspect (as of ep 6). Both shows have dark characters with ambiguous morality and motivations. Childhood trauma/violence and its role in influencing adult behavior also plays a major role in both shows.

-They are very different in multiple ways as the genre is different though both of them are romance, but they are similar in how the female lead acts, she reminds me of Ko Moon Young and watch this drama to find out how the female lead seems!

EDIT: Both are childhood friends/like have childhood encounters. : )

-both about mental health
-ML lead always loses his temper around FL lead
-enemies to lovers
-cute relationship
-Mad for each other is more comedic but still has touching moments
-ML lead gets the female lead out of trouble often
-Live close to each other
-hang around each other often
-cute scene and good kissing

Both were discussing about mental illness and the setting is the same.
Also the presentation of what's going on in one patient's mind is similar.

>>Both the leads have childhood traumas who later get along
>>Both male leads have a crush on female leads during their childhood
>>Both dramas are set in countryside

I don't know why but the psychological aspect with the peter pan syndrome reminds me "its okay to not be okay" I also draw attention to the visuals of this drama which has a magical side although "darker" than « THE SOUND OF MAGIC »

Focus on Mental Health: Both works explore characters grappling with mental health issues, such as trauma and grief.

Both set in predominantly psychiatric hospitals or clinics, and one of the leads being a nurse.
Episodic format with each episode often exploring a different mental health/psychiatric condition.
Both address societal stigma of mental health conditions

Pra quem gosta do Kim Soohyun, assistir It's Okay to Not Be Okay é extremamente necessário. Mas minha recomendação não é só por conta do ator, é também porque, do mesmo jeito de Queen of Tears, os personagens são muito bem desenvolvidos e até parecido com o Hyunwoo e a Haein: um homem bobão tentando ser maduro e uma mulher girlboss. Sem falar que também enxergo muitas semelhanças entre as dinâmicas dos casais principais.

No mais, IOTNBO é o meu drama favorito e a conexão que eu sinto com os personagens é muito profunda. Vale muito a pena!
