There are two versions of the 2015 21.5” iMacs the Non-Retina and the Retina 4K display version:

iMac 21.5" LCD Display Panel - Non-Retina - Apple P/N 661-02989 - LG Display: LM215WF3 (SD)(D5)

iMac 21.5" LCD Display Panel - Retina 4K - Apple P/N 661-02990 - LG Display: LM215UH1 (SD)(A1)

Now let’s look at the 2017 versions which likewise have two versions!:

iMac 21.5" LCD Display Panel - Non-Retina - Apple P/N 661-07321

iMac 21.5" LCD Display Panel - Retina 4K - Apple P/N 661-07322 - LG Display: LM215UH (SD)(B1)

From all indications the displays are not compatible either way.
