Queer drama about how food can connect people together. Both drama also featured middle aged men as the cooking enthusiast while their partners love their food. Both drama are comforting and warm slice of life BL.

- Both are BL
- Based on cooking
- Slice of life (plot is mostly based on cooking together and getting closer)
- Talk about choices for the future

There similarities between these dramas are so many! To keep it spoiler free, I'll just stick to the basics. While Mitsuya Sensei revolves around cooking, The Novelist revolves around writing. Both explore the relationships between older men that are creative individuals (a culinary expert and a writer) and the younger men who pursue them, who gets to know them through their respective creative arts (cooking and writing). The only difference is that Mitsuya Sensei is more on the Slice of Life, soft, mellow, easy-going side of things while The Novelist is more on the emotionally heavy side with a tinge of melodrama. But the similarities really similaritied with these two!!

Though they are a bit different, both of them are "Old Man Yaoi" that includes the holy trinity : Gay people, food, and age gap

Soft, mellow LGBTQ+ dramas that revolve around food, cooking, and coming to terms with one's identity and feelings

Both series are about a young adult falling in love with a much older individual and finding the path they want to pursue in life.
