My Lethal Man (2023)

Both dramas got that fresh story plot
revenge,romance
enemies to lover
both dramas are really similar to each other
cold ml and smart fl

Both female leads have doppelgängers where the poor female lead swaps identity with rich female character and breaks down cold domineering male lead with their positive and outgoing personality.

they both have completely different stories and all that so if you're like me who doesn't want it to be repetitive but the same genre, i think this is a good one!!

similarity:
protective + lethal ml (in both ml can be quite annoying at first but after awhile they're the best man)
smart + innocent fl (in both fl have the worst time coping with ml and are lost souls who want rest)

supportive / understanding
suspense + mystery + LOTS of plot-twists

HAPPY AND WORTH ENDING FOR BOTH

Both dramas involve the FL pretending to be someone she looks exactly alike (twin sister vs. a stranger), leading to a relationship between her and the ML. Both MLs are initially aggressive, powerful, and overbearing.

Both dramas involve the FL pretending to be someone she looks exactly alike (twin sister vs. a stranger), leading to a relationship between her and the ML.

Both dramas have a similar feel in plot and characters - one of the leads is pretending to be a dead look alike (ML pretending to be his twin vs. FL pretending to be a stranger), and both have an ill relative (mother vs. grandfather). Both MLs are dark, mysterious, and troubled types with a tragic past and a dangerous edge.

Tired of his relentless loan-sharking ways, former-male-host Tsukasa Sudo settles into a new job as a thankless errand boy for a local hostess club.

they feel like old harlequin romance novels and unfortunately not the very good ones. deception to the max, plot all over the place. a bit cringe but you simply can't look away. there are so many wrong things with the main characters. just turn your brain off while watching.

- ML inteligente, dominador, aparentemente frio, protetor e agressivo mas na verdade guarda apenas um coração quente e compassivo.
- FL que evolui de frágil para emocionalmente forte.
- ML leva a FL para viver consigo forcando-a a mostrar ser outra pessoa.
- Cenas de luta

All though both dramas have different plots. But they share some similar ideas.
- FL leads have similar personality.
- ML is intelligent and loving.
- Both leads pretend to be a couple and continue their investigation.
- both leads slowly fall in love.
- Both dramas have gun fighting and action scenes.

Disclaimer: FOE is heavier than MLM in terms of a thriller and suspense. When I started watching FOE, I had to read some spoilers because I couldn't stand being in the dark, but it wasn't necessary for me when I started MLM.

In both dramas FLs are smart, resistant, kind-hearted, understanding and trusting. They are trying to help MLs.
MLs are morally gray, calm, cold and really good at hiding their true identities, past, reasonings and goals.
I couldn't get rid of the felling that ML from MLM is similar to ML from FOE. Something like deja ví, maybe? Their (handsome) looks and personality were kinda familiar, but at the same time I thought these MLs are somehow different.

Also their love and chemistry. In both dramas I saw the love that can overcome everything. Also major 'touch her and you'll see what I'm capable of' vibes from the MLs hahah

I think the biggest differences between these dramas are that there is no doppelganger in FOE and in MLM main leads weren't married.
