Both are Republican era dramas with a military backdrop and a suspenseful plot to accompany the romance. Both dramas have main leads that initially come off as being a bit of a playboy/scoundrel before becoming protective of FL, and a more serious (but also ridiculously handsome) second male lead. Both dramas have a strong female cast and supportive cast, including at least one more villainous female character. “Fall in Love” takes place in Shanghai and more directly addresses Western (British) influence while “Arsenal Military Academy” is set elsewhere and focuses more on the conflict with Japan.
Both are Kpop boys idol group survival shows. Both have two parts - first part with a larger pool of possible trainees and second part with a smaller group of finalists.

Differences: Wild Idol includes an outdoor survival component while I-land was all indoors; I-land included global voting while Wild Idol hasn’t yet.
Both shows have a female lead who is older (late 20s/early 30s) who suffer a breakup and then experience a reverse harem situation in which 4 romantic love interests (including the ex) appear. Both have eye candy and a few cringe scenes and focus primarily on finding oneself and new love again.
