Although D.P. is a shorter series than CLOY, it is just as good. CLOY centres around the FL building her relationship with the ML, whereas D.P. showcases the different stories of military defectors with every episode. Both dramas are centred around the military; however, they differ as CLOY focuses on how the FL tries to escape North Korea and D.P. focuses on how South Korea military try to escape for various reasons.

Both shows have the same light-hearted vibe, even though the leads have also faced some difficulties. In addition both shows:

These two are totally different dramas. But, It gives me sort of similar vibes. I think majorly from ML characters. Both MLs are very handsome and charismatic Captains of Special Forces/ Military for their respective countries. They both look cold outside, but actually warm and kind-hearted inside. They both tried their best to protect FLs in any way.
