Tired of the men in her life being lying, married philanderers, Koharu moves away from the city and back home. Once there, she finds her family saddled with debt and no way out. That is until a handsome stranger offers to settle the debt if Koharu agrees to marry him. And if that wasn't crazy enough, he already has two wives!
I got total deja-vu when watching Goong and I was shocked to see no one had made a comparison yet.
- both start out with arranged marriages between two young people
- both dramas have bright & happy fl at the start, paired with possessive and smug male lead.
- FL loses herself as time passes trapped inside the palace, in both dramas at one point it’s due to the ML that they’re trapped
- 2nd male lead in both dramas is persistent and constantly trying to get the fl to run away from the palace and her responsibilities, which gets her in trouble
- both have interesting palace and political drama
- goong is obviously lighter than GBMP but i noticed some parts felt a similar level of high angst and frustration while watching like how the ML has a side girlfriend for the majority of the drama, which then makes the FL untrustworthy when he eventually confesses his feelings later on in both dramas. But also in both he secretly ends up loving the female lead more than the side girlfriend (toxic ik lmao) but FL has no clue
- male lead blames FL a lot especially at the start
- in both FL hates ML for a lot of reasons towards the end
- lack of communication, misunderstandings constantly in both dramas
