Memory of Encaustic Tile (2022)

From the few eps I've watched of memory of encaustic tile:
- main trio of MOET and main trio of go ahead have similar dynamics
- i.e. FL is a troublemaker, SML is her partner in crime, and ML is the smart, responsible one who tries to keep them in line but ultimately joins in anyway
- ML serves as an older brother figure in the beginning (obviously more so in go ahead than in MOET)
- nostalgic, light-hearted high school vibes in the beginning of both dramas
- both dramas follow characters from high school to beyond college
- humor is kind of similar?

Similarities between Memory of Encaustic Tiles and A River Runs Through It:

- Similar Time-line: High School, Gaokao, College Life, Separation and reunion
- Slow Romance development
- Late 20th centaury set up
- Similar vibe , kinda warm and somewhat realistic
- First love feeling
- Both MoET and ARRTI available on YOUKU

Check both of them out!

Leads are neighbours and childhood friends which realise their love for each other when they grow up,both have strong bond between friends and family.

Historic conservation is the underlying theme in these two dramas. In MOET, the leads are neighbours and friends whose parents are conservators but in FRTP, both leads are in the industry..

Family drama about a close knit group of families living in old neighborhoods. They go through life lessons and experiences together.

Same vibes...
Both are slice of life drama where the ml and fl are childhood friends and slowly fall in love while overcoming various obstacles and many of us have faced as new adults. Both celebrate friendship as well.

Similarities
* Slow "slice-of-life" romances
* strong FL and capable supportive ML
* No rushing to get through the plot
* Family and friends important characters

MET is high-school and college ages. MY is stable career.

Both of them have school and both of them were friend and then lover. Both of the story are quite similar. If you like Memory of Encaustic Tile then you should give Our Secret a try.
Enjoy ;)
