Suspicious Partner (2017)

Created by the same people. They have the same kind of comedy with both couples working together. Different genres but the same kind of sunshine heroine vs grumpy hero in terms of the romance. There’s a hilarious older man character in both dramas too.

- Fierce first contact between FL and ML
- FL dislikes ML
- Down on her luck female lead
- Cohabitation
- Incidentally forced entanglement
- Gets attached to male lead
- Female lead a strange heroine
- Male lead with a shrouded past
- But difference is idol drama vs lawyer drama, not similar genres, but similar vibe

The female lead is accused of being murderer's daughter. She wants to work in police forces / court in order to set her father free and clear the family's name. The romance is threatened with the past memories of the accident - in which both families had taken part.

Both of these dramas revolve around the characters solving a murder case. In abyss the main characters are reborn with a new appearance to their original bodies. The ML aims to clear his name as the murder suspect of his friend the FL with her help after being a witness at the time of the crime. Similarly, the FL of Suspicious Partner also witnesses a murder which she aims to solve with the help of the ML.

Both dramas try to balance suspense and romance. "You're My Spring" has more focus on romance than suspense.

1. Boss- Employee Relationship
2. Assistant
3. Jealousy
4. Hate to Love
5. Smart FL
And the girl also comes here to learn something from him and both fall in love with each other at last.

They both talk about a mistaken murder suspect and law. Suspicious Partner is not as serious as Remember and SP is more entertaining but Remember is thrilling and intense to watch, in my opinion.

Both star Nam Ji Hyun
Both have cute MLs who have amazing chemistry with NJH
Both involve cohabitation
Both MLs get easily jealous

Can't say the stories are similar at all, but if you like NJH and are looking for a similar chemistry w/ a ML, I would check out Suspicious Partner

Even though both dramas contain different characters and different storylines, I find that the romance between them give off a similar vibe, as well as the main leads.

While Suspicious Partner is much more romance driven, I felt that the atmospheres of the two dramas are very similar. They both balanced a lighthearted feel with the action/crime side of things.
I also felt like the way the main MC's in both dramas started out kinda rocky and then they began to respect and care for each other through their line of work.

-The males leads both have anger issues
-(LITTLE SPOIL) There's a similar scene where the male lead gets jealous while the female lead talk to another man so he throw water to him
-The same type of humour
- sorry for this one but there's also that one annoying ex girlfriend ?
Tho only similarities are the type of romance, it has no murder but the males leads have a traumatic past

Both dramas involve a strong friendship ruined by cheating while forcing them to stay together due to their occupation.

Similarities:
- Both have a serial killer on the loose that takes an interest in the main male lead.

- Both are set in the world of crime.

- Both possess the genres of romance and comedy (and are clearly showing it).

- Both have a romance where the main male lead is above the main girl (careerwise) --> In Suspicious partner she's his employee and in Love me if you dare she's his secretary/assistant.

- Both male leads have an interesting personality and are smart.

- Both male leads have high positions (careerwise).

- Both excel in their field of work (one as a profiler and one as a prosecutor/lawyer).

- Both male leads have experienced trauma in their past and are still suffering from it in the present.

- Both female leads have an interesting personality and are also smart.

- Both deeply engages in a complicated investigation of the serial killer that goes beyond a few episodes.

- Both have complex characters with their own internal battles.

- Both have multiple cases, regarding criminal investigations that have nothing to do with the serial killer but are separate cases.


Differences:
- One is set in the world of the police while the other is set in the world of lawyers.

- One is produced in China while the other in South Korea.

- Suspicious Partner has 40 episodes while Love me if you dare only has 24 episodes.

I dont know why but the vibe reminds me of suspicious partner.

Both have kind of a love hate relationship

The atmosphere and the humor are similar I think.

Youll understand when you watched both of them :P

If you really like the FL lead in Suspicious Partner, like her messy attitude, I would like to recommend Into the Ring because the FL lead here is similar, even more extra. Both of them were fantastic!
