For me both the drama and the movie had the same vibes..
Maybe its the sadness to it, or the music and female singers
And both are set during the period of Japanese occupation of Korea
I would recommend to watch both of them

It occured in the same era where Joseon is fighting for their liberation from the Japanese occupation. There you can see the iconic Carpe Diem where they frequent to. Both main characters have the nationalism in them, though in Chicago it is much strongly shown. Both male leads fights with their pens through writing literatures.
Both are practically movies (THOD is mini series but has movie vibe). in both:
***Infidelity and love between people who are married/engaged.
***Tragic / forbidden love
***century ago time period (approximately)
***main plot is love/romance but also very well shown "war time" (in one Japanese occupation, in another Vietnam war)
***some dark vibe but also beautiful and great cinematography.
***amazing chemistry between leads.
***sexual relationship (though it's more shown in "obsessed" which is 18+ with amazing sex scenes)
***Both have POV from the ones who cheat and those relationships aren't shown as "bad thing", but both dramas also show what damage can this cause for them and people around them.

The diary tells the story of K and Cream, two orphans who journey through life and share experiences in sadness and joy together. However, K is diagnosed with fatal leukemia cancer. Knowing that Cream's biggest fear is to be left alone, K keeps the fact that he has terminal cancer a secret.

Both leads are expressing their fight for independence through various literary forms.
Both are set during the Japanese occupation in Korea.
In THoD, the romance is highlight between the leads, but in DJ, the friendship between the leads are much more showed.
Both are sad and based on true stories. (As it is indicated on the tags)
