Almost the same story line, normal girl meets and does something significant for her boss. She asks for nothing in return which causes her to catch the bosses attention and things proceed from there. There are even identical situations in these dramas. Main differences are the best friend and the female lead has a secret she's hiding from the male lead!

Main leads have met before, male lead does something nice/significant but only the female lead remembers/knows.

So I don't give away any spoilers I'll be as vague as possible:

The feuding male characters are similar in both dramas.

Male lead has a hot temper, is controlling and he has a jealousy issue.

There are probably more but I'll leave them alone =)

- They both depict physical changes made by the mains and tells the story of how their lives change
- Both set in the work place
- Both male leads are the females' bosses/manager
- She was Pretty's transformation was from attractive to unattractive (even though she wasn't really in my opinion, I thought she was so cute!!) While diamond lover was the other way around

Female lead is not only the same actress, but the characters are suuuuuuper similar! Cheerful, optimistic, etc etc.

Supporting female is also similar: Rude and obnoxious model/actress who become likable.

Both female leads undergo plastic surgery and a major appearance change. Diamond lover is more workplace/adult drama. As where Gangnam beauty is more college drama relating to image and status.

Due to her larger size, Mi Duo has always lacked confidence as her appearance has always caused her to face difficulties in her daily life. She falls in love at first sight when she sees Xiao Liang, a jewelry company president. However, seeing how there is no way they would ever match in appearance, she doesn't engage in a pursuit. A car accident forces her to go under surgery, one of which is cosmetic surgery. After the surgery, she has transformed into an ideal image of herself. Now with more confidence, Mi Duo successfully lands a job at Xiao Liang's company. She goes through success and failure in work, experiencing life very different from what she had been used to. With her friend, Lei Yi Ming, a surgeon, supporting her every step of the way, she begins to realize that appearances are just surface-level qualities and that there are more important things to strive for on the inside.

Romantic comedy love story between Korean man & Chinese woman. Rain was in a movie too with Crystal Liu Yi Fei called Love or Money. A must watch intercountry romance drama.
