Consigli

Both dramas are kind of slice of life dramas about young people, challenging the norms of Korean society.

Both shows have step -families that overcome poverty and estrangement. The main couple have to overcome class differences and family disaproval.

A man and a woman are brought together because of their spouses' indiscretions.

if you like cute noona romance, then watch these movie and drama

In Gokusen, Yankumi grand-daughter of Yakuza Family and her greatest dream is become a teacher. In GTO, Onizuka is a reformed biker gang leader who has his sights set on an honorable new ambition: to become the world's greatest teacher...


Both shows follows same formula, similiar genre, comedy, same kind of humor.

They have a lot of similar elements :) The story lines are not very similar but I got a similar vibe from both :) The girl who sees scents was a fantasy drama and You're all surrounded was more action, but they will similar because both dramas have the main character who decided to become a police/detective because someone from their family was murdered. Both have the cutest main leads who work together to solve the murder mystery :)

Both dramas are about PDs and their daily lives both at work and their relationships outside. Both are comedies and you can see some romance between the co-workers.

-same screenwriter and director
-same period drama with epicness aura
-Saki and Toshiko have fairly similar characteristics (delicate, very supportive, but strong willed)
-Kenta Kiritani as supporting character(s)

Secret Garden is about a stuck up rich guy meeting a poor girl who is not very girly and inexplicably falling for her. Coffee Prince brings the same feeling of funny and romance with an easier going hot hot hot male lead and an easier going girl who looks like a guy. In Secret Garden they switch bodies but in Coffee prince there is a gender mix but it is ENCHANTING!!!

just because Hongo Kanata and Takanashi Rin were casted together in both shows.

As major themes: both are funny, heartwarming stories and feature the main characters growing up and becoming more confident adults.

Other similarities include: featuring high school reunions although at different scales; There is definitely an element of who is the daddy/husband mystery in both although for very different reasons; Both have really cute/inventive title cards for each episode and are 16 episodes, so on the shorter side for dramas

Totally not the same, but both are melodramas with bullies, murder, and mysterious pasts in their plots. Both have Kim So Hyun in them, and she's always fun to watch. Truly talented young lady. Missing you is a lot darker and bolder but both are super interesting and hard to put down.

In both the male lead has the kind and gentle character, that women wish their husband would have.

Same kind of feel in both dramas. The female starts of small and weak and gets stronger towards the end. Both are designers.

Both stories are set in the same dynasty as well as the same element of a marriage, adding humorous features and scenes.
