The Moon that Embraces the Sun is also a historical drama just like Night's Watchman. They both have fantasy as their main genre.
They also involve Shamans. The main lead actress are both shamans.
The main actor in both dramas is a royal. In TMTETS he is a king, while he is a prince in the Night's Watchman.
Now that I think about it Il Woo act in both but in the MTETS, he is the older prince, in NW he is the younger prince.
I just kept being reminded of TMTETS while watching this drama =D

both are romantic historical dramas which emphasize a love triangle between a simple woman, the king of the country and the woman's childhood friend/ the king's brother . Also, a thing which I found very similar was the fact that both stories begin with a childhood sequence of the main characters ^^
