Both are BL Korean dramas about two guys who are attracted to eachother but confused about their feelings. There's a bit of tension and hot and cold between them and they are both very amazing dramas. I needed something to watch while waiting for new episodes of The Eighth Sense to come out and A Shoulder to Cry On really fit the bill!

quite a few similar aspects:
- centred around a sport
- sporty lead and other lead having an antagonistic relationship that transforms into something romantic
- sporty lead stagnating in his skill of that sport until he meets other lead who shows him how to loosen up and improve
- other lead being quite happy and cheeky on the outside but having internal issues that he slowly reveals to the sporty lead

Japanese bl drama which has also a psychological tag. Similar length in number of episodes and duration in general.
- they both concentrate on the crush that one ml has for the other and the feelings that grow and change from there
- My Beautiful Man focuses more on an obsession and admiration kind of aspect
- In My Beautiful Man the love interest acts mean for a longer period of time before realizing his feelings (similar to A Shoulder to Cry On)
- The overall themes and way of progression of the story are fairly similar between the two
