Very similar restaurant and food theme, there's also romance and characters involved in a love triangle.

"Wok of Love" and "Temperature of Love" are both South Korean television dramas, but they differ in their primary themes and settings.

"Wok of Love" (also known as "Greasy Melo") revolves around the lives of three characters who have experienced failures in their respective careers. The story unfolds in a neighborhood Chinese restaurant, where the characters find solace, friendship, and love amidst the challenges they face.

On the other hand, "Temperature of Love" focuses on the journey of a screenwriter and a chef who initially meet in an online community. The drama explores the ups and downs of their relationship as they navigate the complexities of their careers and personal lives.

While both dramas involve themes of love, relationships, and career struggles, "Wok of Love" places a stronger emphasis on the culinary aspect, set in a Chinese restaurant, whereas "Temperature of Love" delves more into the world of writing and culinary arts with a different narrative structure.

Drama Similarities

While "Wok of Love" and "Temperature of Love" have distinct storylines and settings, there are some general similarities between the two dramas:

Romantic Themes: Both dramas are centered around romantic relationships and explore the challenges, ups, and downs that couples face in their journey towards love.

Career Struggles: The main characters in both dramas experience difficulties and setbacks in their professional lives. Whether it's failures, changes in career paths, or pursuing their passions, the characters navigate challenges related to their work.

Culinary Element: While the culinary aspect is more prominent in "Wok of Love" since it is set in a Chinese restaurant, both dramas incorporate elements of the food industry. In "Temperature of Love," the male lead is a chef, and the drama occasionally explores the culinary world.

Friendship and Supportive Characters: Both dramas feature a cast of supporting characters who play important roles in the lives of the main characters. These characters provide support, friendship, and sometimes comic relief.

Slice-of-Life Elements: Both dramas incorporate elements of slice-of-life storytelling, portraying the daily lives, challenges, and relationships of the characters in a realistic and relatable manner.

It's important to note that while there are some general similarities, the overall plots, character dynamics, and settings are distinct in each drama, providing viewers with unique and different viewing experiences.

Younger male lead which portrays a mature and respectful relationship between adults. This show highlight the effort it takes to maintain a relationship while navigating and balancing career plus friendship.

A capable but unpopular showbiz manager, Kazuko, struggles to groom a younger, new male actor, Ryo, whom she had scouted, into a star. An unmotivated Ryo slowly becomes conscious of the pleasures of acting. Bonds of camaraderie grow, and before long, love gradually blossoms between them.

Both male leads have some kind of relation and position in cooking, DD specialises in Western cuisine and ToF specialises in French cuisine and the female leads have kind of similar roles, DD is a playwright-director whereas ToL is a drama writer. Both male leads and female leads are involved in a cooking show.

Storylines are slightly similar.

In both dramas, the couples almost date before going separate ways and then meet again; one of them is a writer, and in both dramas the writers (one of the main characters) incorporate their lives in their writings; the 2MLs have similar roles (but it's more serious in ToL); they both talk about friendships; slow-burn romances; they are both overlooked dramas.

Temp of Love is a little deeper, more serious and longer, while Ex-Girlfriend Club is more humorous and the problems are on a less serious note.

Similar noona and dongsaeng relationship between the two main leads and a slow burn but fast start romance. Chemistry feels natural between the leads and the male lead seems to much more mature for his age.

These dramas have a similar overall pace. They start with certain events that work as catalysts for the main plot focus, they have significant character developments and they explore questions that relate to love, family/friendships/work/romantic relationships, while characters are still learning about themselves.
The couples have amazing chemistry too!

Both dramas have the same storyline. The leads both separate for a long period of time and get back together.

Love triangle.. in some episodes It recall me about the same feeling I had for Jealousy Incarnate.. the main role is a woman working in the entertainment world

Seo Hyun Jin and Yang Se Jong acted in both dramas. One is a medical romance and the other is a romantic comedy. However, this is the only similarities.

They're the main couple in Temperature of Love but in Romantic Doctor, Seo Hyun Jin was one of the main characters whereas, Yang Se Jong was only a supporting character.
