During Hormones Season 2, one of the storylines tells about how someone creates a fake account on social media to pass themselves off as someone who is really popular at high school in order to feel how is to get affection and popularity. This character feels unwanted, envious and lonely and tried to escape off their problems doing this kind of thing on the Internet.
In The Comments, we found a similar idea. Again, it tries to make the audience see why someone should do something like that and what are the consequences for the victim and culprit.
In regard to general ideas, I shouldn't say the Hormones' trilogy is so focused on bullying/cyberbully as The Comments, but definitely are topics touched, to a greater or lesser extent, in all the seasons, apart from another sensible topics like sex, abortion, drugs, sexuality...
Both are series really worthy to see just because the messages they want to share

By the same director, both stories revolve around the suicide of the fl and the consequent guilt carried by their family and close persons.
Furthermore, both share the depiction of a Brother-Sister Relationship, in which the brother tries to understand and discover the reason behind what his sister did.
Plus, the vibes! Pretty similar in terms of scenarios, wardrobe, little details how the way both take care of including shot of house-made food to give a home-loving feeling to some scenes. I also noticed both series are not set in Bangkok as usual but a more rural city/village, what's refreshing! To sum, it is obvious the director's touch.
About the differences, Happy Birthday has supernatural elements just like the fact the ml can see the ghost of his sister, depicting a storyline about family problems and depression. In contrast, The Comments tries to be realist and raising awareness about problems on social media and cyberbullying.

By the same director and that's shown, both series absolutely give the same vibes. Both stories revolve around school bullying and, specially in The Comments, cyberbullying. Also, it's depicted how that kind of abuse can break emotionally someone in a so deep way to consider even killing themselves.
Both Thai series dealt with issues like cyberbullying, school bullying and social problems that women have to face because of envious 'friends'. In both, the ignored boy who had a crush on her is the only person who truly understands her and supports her.
However, I must advise The Judgement is darker than The Comments (even when all them depict hard themes), since there are some explicit sexual abuse scenes in that one.

Similar plot where one of the two siblings dies and the older of the two searches for the truth behind the suicide. Social networks play their part in the process of psychological destruction of the characters.
Film plays in both series.
Trama simile dove uno dei due fratelli muore e il maggiore dei due cerca la verità dietro il suicidio. I social network fanno la loro parte nel processo di distruzione psicologica dei personaggi.
Film recita in entrambe le serie.
