Both are love stories with similar love interests; all 4 of the men are very passionate about what they want to do for a living. One man from each series are younger men actively trying to make their dream come true while the other love interest are older men who've been doing with their dream job for years already.

If you are open to a bigger younger-man/older-woman age gap, I highly recommend Last Cinderella.

A love story affair with a bit different storyline & plot with mature sexual content but both is worth watching drama. If you like mature love affairs story I definitely recommend this drama.

Both male leads are playboys who like to seduce and play around without any emotions attached; and they also have complicated relationships with their fathers. They also have a female "best friend" or step-sister with whom they make plans together.

Saito looks great here

It's romantic, but riddled with the heartwringing conflict that makes you yearn for a happy ending (I hope we get one). The actress playing the romantic female lead (the destined one) is very good.
the story is about Kasumi (Tomoyo Harada) is divorced and lives with her high school student aged son. She supports her family by delivering laundry. One day, she meets Yuri (Takumi Saito). Yuri is a customer of the laundry delivery service. He is a popular designer, known for his designs of cafes and furniture. Yuri talks to Kasumi without restraint. At first, Kasumi is cautious around him, but she becomes attracted to him.

Both have themes with an older woman and a younger man, where the younger man helps the woman loosen up and experience true caring. Both are quite cute relationships with honesty and caring. Both the young men MLs are happy go lucky and slightly immature in some aspects, but emotionally mature. Both FLs are "uptight" in various ways, and in positions of slight power (CEO for Encounter, and a manager of a salon for Last Cinderella) at least compared to the ML

Both are noona romances. Where older women date younger men and realize they can find love in unexpected places. There are also 2 male leads who seem suitable for our heroine.
There are also other stories surrounding the main couple. The storylines of a few of the secondary characters are also similar.
