Twenty-Five Twenty-One (2022)

I recommend this both drama because , Male lead and Female lead
try to solve problem
In one drama explosion and another student murder/suicide

- Set in the 90s
- Both talks about first love, youth and friendship
- Both show the past and the present
- Somewhat similar personality of the female leads
- The aesthetic, beautiful cinematography and music are both seen in both
- Twenty Five Twenty One also focuses on sports and journalism and is a TV show.

The female lead has the same personality and character and Bok Joo and the same male lead. They are both sport related and the is a huge friendship theme.

Both Dramas are about Youth , a group of people trying to follow their dreams with a little bit of romance

Both are sports focused romance.Fl is ambitious and is like a prodigy in both. Character focused and slice of life like

They both have settings way back in high school.
They have the same concept of going back to back with present and past.
Both have superior line up of OST.
Chemistry of among the leads are on top.


Spoiler:
main couple had a major fall out in the past

- endings are not similar but other aspects like:
(i) school friendships
(ii) 2FL and 2ML relationship
(iii) one left out friend (fifth wheeler) like guan fang in 25 21
(iv) that one beach / picnic scene
(v) 2FL and FL are great friends

These are both Kim Tae Ri dramas where she is talented in a skill and works her way up to be well known in that particular skill (gukgeuk in Jeongnyeon, fencing in 2521). In both dramas, she has a female rival who seems to have more professional training than her at the beginning of the show. The rivals in both shows initially hate Kim Tae Ri's characters, but Kim Tae Ri's characters and the rivals eventually overcome their differences to form a friendship.

They really have the same vibes.
Female Lead Characters are both Cute and Sassy. They also have the same Genre Friendship,Youth,Romance and Drama.

Reply 1988 is set in 1988 while Twenty Five Twenty One is set in 1998.

The story talks about the same era and kinda the vibe is the same. But totally different genre. 2521 is more friendship and rom com, but Youth of may is more relationship and drama also with a sad ending! We still dont know if 2521 will give us a sad ending or a happy one?!

Firstly, the leading male role is played my Nam Joo-hyuk.
And both the series make us wonder about our dreams.

Time setting was also before '00.
The drama was about girls friendship, family struggle, and romance.
The FL was Bona (Go Yurim's actress) and she was really awesome in this one too!

- Both dramas explore first love and dreams from youth through nonlinear storytelling
- Flashbacks from the 90s with a present day plot
- Notable real world events weaved into the story

If you liked ‘Twenty five twenty one’ then you’re going to like ‘Hometown cha cha cha’ for sure.
• Both the dramas give similar vibes, they’ve same genre
• Both the dramas have healing stories
• Both dramas are like based more on village area
• Both the dramas have a beautiful chemistry and a beautiful love story between ml & fl
• Both the mls are really handsome and you’ll love the fls and you’ll love their characters
• The only difference is hometown cha cha cha has a happy ending
The best thing i loved about both these dramas are how beautifully they portrayed a story with beautiful emotions, both these dramas will give you butterflies, Keep your tissues ready for both the dramas to cry with happy tears.

Both dramas are simillar in terms of genres, with intensive training, the will to continue pursuing dreams despite many obstacles, along with powerful acting and slow burning chemistry that develops over the course of the entire plotline.

Great and memorable, yet remarkably different soundtracks with a mix of international, but universal tones.

The one thing that will be different is the portrayal of the entire cast, due to opposite cultures. Nevertheless unforgettable moments and quotes will be present for sure!
