Celestial Authority Academy (2021)

A famous, talented, and well-loved writer enrolls in the academy in his own right and without taking the entrance exam. Unexpectedly, this good-looking, gifted young man turns out to be a girl, and many men eventually fall for her.

Both shows are about a girl cross-dressing and ending up going to an all male school. She also has several males around her who become friends with her.

It is also the ancient academy based drama where female lead is want to be well educated and to have the same rights as men. She is writer but hides her identity and disguise as men to enter academy. Male lead is the typical rich spoiled kid who is not interested in any politics.

SAME: FL is disguised as male to earn money for her family,
setting = prestigious government school for men where FL stays for stipend given and desire to learn
FL is initially hazed/picked on
FL is exceptional achiever among peers with a strong voice for equality across socioeconomic and gender divides
power struggles within school reflect power struggles occurring within country at large

DIFFER:
country of origin: SS = Korean, CAA = Chinese

overall plot development: SS - fairly unified and coherent
CAA - weaker reflection of plot with numerous inconsistencies: particularly FL life depends on disguise as male yet
FL shrieks whenever she sees shirtless men
FL keeps flowered coin purse even after being told it reveals that she is a woman

similarities
- Both take place in an institute setting
- A girl is interacting with a boy group of 4
- Falls in love with the one she hates the most
- In the beginning hate the group except one guy (that one guy in both dramas are sensible and reserved)
- The ML starts mentally acting mature ones they fall in love with the FL

Differences
- MG is modern while CAA is historical
- In CAA the FL is disguised as a boy
- In MG the group of 4 bully everyone but in CAA the group only bullies the FL
- In MG one of them is a play boy but in CAA one of them is love sick
- In MG one of them is a sportsman while in CAA one them is good in martial arts

They both give off the same vibe overall but I think CAA had a bit more to its story than MG.
Basically all the dramas about BOYS OVER FLOWERS give off a similar vibe to CAA.

Both amazingly outstanding dramas! Very thrilling and keeps you guessing the whole way!
with 2 amazing plots! Definitely have to watch both!

Well, both of the characters are similar both of the main female lead wants to join the school but the school is just for boys.

Both dramas are about a girl cross-dressing and who ends up going to a male-only school.
Both period dramas
