So this is a pretty obviously recommendation being made by the same mangaka and such but there are quite a few more similarities other than the obvious. First both are about waiting for this one person to be reincarnated, in NG Life our main is waiting for his one lover and in Yona the dragons were waiting for the King to be reincarnated. They also had aspects of drama and each moment makes you want to read more. Finally they may be set in different places but I can assure you that if you enjoyed one then the other should be the next on your list XD

Both are seriously awesome shoujo series by the same author, with a similar historical feel and feels in general.

Both series have the main characters remembering parts of their past life and a few characters have changed genders since reincarnating.  Both main characters have recreated their historical romance. 'Third wheel' character trys to prevent any permenant attachment between main characters for the sake of one of them.
