Birth of a Beauty (2014)

They are similar because female lead became beautiful but everything has some price. So if you like one then you might like the other.

An overweighted housewife makes a transformation (through weight-loss) as one of her steps to get revenge on her unfaithful husband.
Dramas about her taking revenge on him.

ML is an actor but not too popular anymore & broke so he rent a room in FL house.
FL is a nerdy geeky/otaku girl who like to imagine & day dreaming about romance with her favorite manga/comic book character. Remind me of Rainie Yang & Jiro Wang drama....& still 1 of my favorite drama....If you like this genre this is a must watch romance comedy drama....

The main lead makes a complete makeover to revenge against the ones betraying them in the first place... complicated family and love matters are common in both. Temptation of an Angel is more tactical in the planning, while Birth of Beauty uses humor more

Changing a woman, making her more lovable to those around her. In both the result is made to make someone jealous.

The premise is quite similar. Get Karl tells the story of a man who wants to get back with his girlfriend so he has a make-over and becomes successful.

It made me think of the situation Ki Tae's mother had to go through and probably many other ahjummas around South Korea. While Sa Geum Ran is at the age where she can still change her life..there are many pitiful women around the world who lost their courage and live in pointless marriages because they're too afraid or have no other opportunities to start anew. With age come the problems..and it becomes harder to let go.

In both series the main lead is an eccentric immature man, both are romantic-comedies that involve a violent woman, both have the main female act all innocent when it comes to relationships.

Similar concepts. BOAB follows a woman in fulfilling her wish to become beautiful through plastic surgery.

Did you ever had that "ah, they're so twisted that they're perfect for each other" feeling while watching a couple?..if not, you'll have it watching both series.

In Rooftop Prince the evil woman is so good at playing her role that she convinces you to hate her with all your guts and pity her craziness, all at the same time. She gets you at the point where you love to hate her. Same goes with Gyo Chae Yeon, with the difference that she isn't as humane as Se Na.

In both dramas the male lead is played by Joo Sang Wook. Both deal about a female lead that learned form a disappointment that changed her life and works now together with the male lead to either get revenge, as it is the case in Birth of a Beauty, or to help the male lead, like it is the case in Touch. Both dramas have a very similar feeling and a similar relationship between the leads.

Serinuma Kae is a chubby high school girl who loves BL manga. One day her beloved character dies, and the girl falls into depression. For a long time, she cannot even eat, which leads to significant weight loss. But to her own surprise, the updated Serinuma becomes very popular at school, and she immediately has four handsome admirers at once.

It has a similar vibe.
Both of the main female lead go through being mistreated when they were "ugly" (I don't think they were ugly but you know).
Main lead slowly fall in love with the female lead.

> Both main female leads get left
> Both main female leads take the help of the male leads to get back their husband/boyfriend.
> Both main leads live together while working on this plan.
> Both main leads fall in love with each other instead.

very similar plot lines and premise, if you like one you’ll definitely like the other! great watches. :)
