Mirror: Twin Cities (2022)

- both male protagonists which are Li Yifeng and Ren JiaRen are Merman
- both need to experience love and hate love stories and overcome many obstacles to be together.
- both are big IP drama work adapted from a novel.
- the plot is related to the sea, mermaids, etc...
- both are love story based on merman and immortality
Totally recommended and plus i love the actor LI Yifeng

Both shows have similarities. In order to make a change the characters are forced to gain power in a short amount of time. Dark energy is the key to save the day. In addition, the adventures and character developments take a similar turn.

Strong Female Lead, Mystery, Love Triangle, Many buties, Very interesing plot, Famous actors and actrees

Must watch drama if u liked watching mirror tale of twin cities

- ML are related dragons who help to solve crisis for their tripe. they fall in love a long the way.
- uhm, the ending

This is similar to mirror twin cities and I hop both of these dramas will air sometime next year so I think both of these will be great dramas to watch

Mirror a tale of twin cities is a fantasy drama which gives all kinds of emotions to us.This drama also portays an unrequited love and it's pain in an interesting way.

They are both set in a fantasy world and are costume dramas. There are complicated family backgrounds/lineages and its a very similar vibe/feeling. Also! It just so happens that the FL of Twin Cities starred in this drama as well (as a second FL of sorts).

Similarities:
Both shows are romance fantasy/xianxia with aquatic demons (slightly different takes on it) and include the tension & cooperation between different ‘races/tribes’

both have slight love-triangles but the SMLs are mostly silently pining.
ML & SML have a grudging cooperation and evolving friendship, not just over shared love interest but also due to being leaders.

In both couples they are trying to protect their partners and instead are ready to sacrifice themselves
(this includes hiding things from their partners, I just mention it because I know some viewers are sensitive to this and don’t want to watch shows like that, but it’s not unusual for self-sacrificial xianxia plots ^^)


differences:
besides storyline differences, Mirror: a Tale of Twin Cities has slower storytelling and the couple is more on a ‘grown-up & introverted’ vibe while Song Of The Moon main couple is more ‘extroverted & youthful’

Each drama has their weak points, but I still overall enjoyed both and personally appreciate that the ‘love-triangles’ are more handled as ‘grudging & a bit awkward friendships’ between MLs & SMLs :)

Both dramas are Fantasy or Xianxia dramas. The stories involve immortal people and war among different clans.
