I've only seen up to Ep. 6 but the plot is story and characters are quite similar. FL is forced to marry cold rich guy. ML falls in love with FL first. ML tries everything to "control" or deceive FL.

The CEO makes the shy assistant girl pregnant accidentally and decides to enter into a contractual marriage for a year. The CEO already has a girl he loves so he wishes to return to her initially. But in the process of fulfilling their responsibilities towards each other, they fall in love with each other and decides to continue their married life. But uncertainties fall upon and they break up with a misunderstanding. Many years later, they are brought together by fate and go through a lot of heartbreaks and painful past to finally get back together. However, They live a Happily married after life at the end.

-both MLs focus a lot on cleaning
