There's a similar feel of nostalgia and of being young; both romances start off as friends and cover a long period of time - both deal with suffering and loss and both take place partially in school and partially in adult life.

Both also have a FL who has to work very hard to achieve her goals (although the goals are quite different).

Both dramas focus on the personal growth and emotional journeys of young characters. They explore the challenges and experiences of youth, such as love, friendship, and self-discovery.

Romance plays a central role in both stories. The leads and second leads navigate the complexities of first love, misunderstandings, and the deepening of relationships as they mature.

Slice of Life: Both capture everyday moments and the beauty of ordinary life, focusing on the small yet significant events that shape the characters' lives.

the male and female leads in both the dramas are good in studying. They have to stay apart due to some family circumstances and meet each other later in the university.

Both of the dramas are based on youth.
Here are some of the similarities i found:-
1- Both the leads couldn't stand each other at first but later on fell in love when they started interacting more.
2- The male lead in both the dramas is a genius.
3- Both the dramas follow their journey from high school to college and then finally both the leads recognised their feelings for each other.
4- Both the dramas are cute and fluffy.

FL and ML become the deskmates, where everybody else admires the ML. It gets difficult for the FL to make him notice her.

In both series the Mother of ML appreciates and help FL as she comes into their house. They see them as their daughter in law.

ML and FL's parents are best friends and they both get to live together for a while

ML ignores FL because of misunderstanding, lateron confess their love.

The second lead guy does a lot for FL and makes sure that she fall for him and chose him but in both series they never succeeds

FL giveup and ML realizes their mistake.

In both series ML is super intelligent and share his knowledge with others, also tutors the FL. That's how they get brilliant marks in their exams.

FLs get admission into the same university as they wanna stay closer to the MLs. Whereas in both dramas the Female leads fail the admission test for university, studies one more year to get selected into the same uni.

both youth dramas about long term friends who liked each other in high school but fell apart for some reason. years later, they reunite and consummate their love.
Recommended by lelet
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 ;)

Both dramas are coming of age stories with everything that entails : high school drama, first love, strict parents...
Main difference is in Our Secret we get to see the life & the actual romance of the characters after high school, university, work...

Both are romances in a school setting. The main couple are deskmates, with the MLs very smart and good students who help the FL who is worse at her studies. Both progress from school to adulthood.
