While these two are dramatically different shows the thing they have in common is how they make you feel as a viewer. They both will give you the warm and fuzzies and make you swoon over the incredibly green flag men in them. Both also showcase students and music.
Only Boo features Moo who dreams of becoming an idol but that dream often overshadows anything else including his studies so his mom sends him to a small town to complete his senior year without distractions. There he meets Kang, a kind hearted and generous boy that sells rice and curry. Moo's sweet chase of Kang while Kang pushes Moo to improve himself is the cutest thing to watch and will leave silly little smiles on your face for days.
Twinkling Watermelon is a bit of a fantasy where Eun Gyeol who wants to be a musician and join a band travels back in time to meet his parents at his age. Eun Gyeol is a hearing child to two deaf parents and he finds out that his father did not lose his hearing until his 18th year which is when he travels in time to meet him. SO Eun Gyeol makes this mission to help his dad and prevent the accident that took his hearing. Their interactions with each other and the brotherly love with the band they create will make you giggle constantly. There are two love stories also portrayed but the most of the story is about his relationship with his father and learning and growing himself.
Both give the same kind of vibe and include a great sound track.

Synopsis
The drama tells the story of how an ordinary girl Xia Guo chooses when faced with two different choices, and what happens. The drama is presented in parallel time and space. The different choices of the heroine will lead to different endings.There are the challenges and dilemmas of the big city; but on the other hand, there is the stability and triviality of the small town. In life it is always necessary to make concessions, without fear of loss, and moving forward to embrace that sense of the "extraordinary." If life could have other versions, and the "if" could be experienced, what would it look like? The drama realizes this "if" so that the heroine experiences two lives in parallel. How she will handle those choices is the big question.
"I live elsewhere" (from original title in chinese).

As I watch this, this has a lot of similarities to Twinkling Watermelon. It's about a son who travels back in time and helps his father. The only difference is that in Nanfan Family, he's not trying to help his father avoid an accident, but rather help his father not live a poor life. He also helps his father get together with his mom. The son and young father also have a funny/cute brotherly relationship
twinkling watemelon is more dramatic and affectioning while back to the 90's is more comedic.
the common points are:
son from the future is going back to the 90's era to discover that he meets his young version of father and mother having all the same age
the father of male lead is within a musical band and the male lead will be his best friend, joining him in playing guitar and composing songs.
the male lead will be in a mission to make his father and mother ending up together after meeting a girl who is the female lead having a crush for his father.
the male lead will be working on changing the fate of these characters without feeling he will be falling for the female lead.
the phone booth is the mean to time travel between two different periods of time
the female lead is too a musician and will be ended falling for the male lead in the end of the trip.
