Both dramas' female leads are weird characters.

In both dramas, the male leads are attorneys. Although they are dorks, they put on a strong exterior for everyone to see.

The male and female leads of both shows cross paths due to fate.

Both are really comical while also dealing with serious situations.

Both a supernatural romance..One woman can see the future in her dreams the other can see how someone dies by touching the black shadow that follows that person. There is more but dont want to put in spoilers.

Both are Kdramas where one of the protagonists has foresight: In Another Miss Oh, the hero has deja-vu (Visions/flashbacks about something that is about to happen in short notice) and in WYWS, the heroine has Prophetic Dreams (Dreams about the near future or distant). Both have romance inside a beautiful plot, great actors and soundtrack.

Both are mystery dramas in which the FL has dreams of the future and tries to change it to save people. Both FLs tragically lost their fathers, and both have a childhood connection to the ML.

Similarities:
- Both use a supernatural way to solve crimes - and uses this element to make matters more interesting other than dragged out.

- Both share some kind of love triangle. (Have only seen until the fourth episode of "While You Were Sleeping" when writing this recommendation, so I could be wrong.)

- Both share some of the same genres. (Including Romance and Supernatural)

Differences:
- While "Who Are You" is set in the world of cobs, "While You Were Sleeping" is set in the world of prosecutors and lawyers.

- In "Who Are You" the main female protagonist can see ghosts/spirits of their victims while in "While You Were Sleeping" they can predict the future through dreams and strive to change them.

Both dramas have main leads that experienced a traumatic event in childhood that led to unforgettable experiences together. (Also both childhood ML is Na De Reum :)). Both dramas have an underlying angst and PTSD -like symptoms among the main characters. Both have a main couple that works through their relationship in a healthy way and support each other. Both dramas have a SML / supportive colleague that creates a trio that takes on the world together ! :) no fantasy element in Radio Romance but the overall mood is similar.

I am sure that if you liked While you were sleeping you will love Extraordinary you.
Both have a love triangle in which the woman discovers first somthing fantastic that later she shares with the men: In While you were sleeping the demale lead can see the future and later the male leads too and in Extraordinary you the female discovers that she is a Manga character and later the male lead also thanks to her and also in both dramas the three main characters look for solutions to the problem and try tu change their fate.

I'am not good at explaining myself but I swear that you will not regret watching the drama.

Jae Chan in this drama certainly reminds me of Nam Sin III in Are You Human Too? I find both male lead characters incredibly charming in the way they relentlessly protect the female leads. Both dramas also have incredible screenwriting so I'm sure you'll enjoy AYHT as much as you enjoy WYWS.

If you liked the mistery/otherworldly/law part in this drama, signal is a very good option for a new drama to watch! It has a very complex a nd deep story that starts with 3 police officers (2 from the present and 1 from the past) that try to solve cold murder cases. It has just a little bit of romance and comedy but it is a very thrilling to watch how different actions change the future ^^

- although one more to fantasy genre and another on revenge side but both still surrounds the law genre
- both gives off the best trio vibes friendship - best teamwork
- male lead gives off pretty similar vibe with one another
- moments of romance between the leads
- the corruption of power
