Hahaha! I see what you mean. I don't think they look that similar, but I definitely see the resembles because they have similar features. I'm currently watching Patrick in Someday or One Day. I'm going to try to finish this before this one airs.

I watched up to episode 5 so far and it's actually not that bad. I like that the drama tries to explain the time travels which is different from some dramas I've seen that doesn't explain anything (ahem TDOBY). Youning in 2019 is communicating with Wenxi in 2006 to change the fate of Youning's life. It's all to save his grandpa, who suffers from dementia and raised him. I'm at the part where it doesn't matter how Wenxi and Youning change the course the events, his grandpa ends up dying. The time jump is doing pretty well, I have no problems following along to everything. I do wished that Patrick was able to use his real voice but I get it (he's Taiwanese so they dubbed him). 

 

Also, this BTS on the kiss scene.
