Both dramas are similar for their cheating aspect, both FL's are not satisfied with the relationship they have with their husband, thus, looking or accidentally looked at another man that appreciates their value more as a woman. They did not find the "other" man, they just happened to be in the right situation at the right time, and the "other" man caught their attention. The difference is that H has a sad ending, but OTWTTA has a happy ending, though not seen, just implied. And another thing, H is kinda steamy, but OTWTTA is more conservative, I don't know how they did it, but it came out nicely and sweet. H is also sweet and nice, but more sexy in my opinion.

I think that when "On the Way to the Airport" was showing, its competitor drama was this, My Wife is having an affair this week...You know how korean dramas have a trend or a theme at a certain time (like time travel or robots or aliens)...
Anyway, they both have the same theme in a way,..Cheating or looking for other options of already married people...But it was kind of from a different angle for both dramas. In OTWTTA, it was from the angle of the "cheating" spouses itself. In MWIHAATW, it was from the angle of the husband who was faithful and cheated on and the wife that cheated's reasons...but a big point is, the endings were opposite of each other. I don't wanna spoil, but one of them, the original spouses forgave and got back, on the other drama, the "cheating" couple got together. At that time, I watched MWIHAATW, instead of OTWTTA, I mean, just got to pick one "cheating" drama at that time. I was still on my "cutesy" drama phase.

Both deal with a female protagonist's journey of self-discovery through an extramarital affair and its consequences.

The plot of "On the Way..." reminded me a lot of Discovery of Romance. It was in a way, cheating but not cheating... There are both scenes on both dramas where you will feel the thrill of "getting caught". But its more felt on Discovery of Romance.

OTWTTA is similar to DOR in a sense that, they both have very confused female leads. Although the female lead in DOR is confused if she should choose an old love over the new, while in OTWTTA, the female lead is more into holding on to her old love while denying in her mind that this new male in her life is just a friend, but nevertheless, makes her feel better about herself.

Both dramas has a female lead thinking of keeping their current relationships, (husband or boyfriend) but another male came in (or came back) to shake their emotions, thus the drama. Plus in both dramas, you will be hooked by first episodes. They are fast paced and addicting.

The difference would be, in DOR, it is much more thrill of getting caught, but in OTWTTA, its much more calmer and comforting. Also, the husband in OTWTTA has the relationship broken already from the start of the series. While in DOR, the boyfriend is really playing it nice just to work out the relationship.

Similar forbidden love story with the charisma of the same lead actor. OSTs create similar feels as well

Both are a fantastic slice-of-life about a couple maturing through life, separately and together. The chemistry is very strong and depiction of love also felt very real.
