What's Wrong with Secretary Kim (2018)

An overpowered couple where both are equally powerful. The heroine is not a damsel in distress in either of the series. In addition, the couple has an amazing chemistry that most of us dream of.

1. Both the female leads have humble beginnings who are trying to sustain themselves on their own as well as are providing for their families simultaneously.
2. The leads in both the drama have childhood connections.
3. Workplace romance where the male leads are in a professionally superior position and are still trying to support the female leads both financially and emotionally as much as they can.
4. The sub plots of other coworkers comes off as equally impactful and touching as the main storyline.

Both ML only realize they like FL when she quits her job and try to win her over from then on.

Both ML are CEOs and FL are their employee (in IMLY she is a screenwriter and WWWSK she is, obviosly, a secretary).

cute office romance where the ML is powerful and rich but the FL stands her ground and is strong in her own way

Both have:
- Rich ML who’s the boss
- Mean male lead who will eventually soften up with Female Lead
- FUNNY office co-workers / supporting cast

Different:
- FL in Home Magazine is stranger to ML in the beginning
- FL in Secretary Kim has known Male Lead for years so they have a better foundation

- lovers being forced apart is always going to hurt
- the feelings more intense. Hence, they don’t even need steamy kisses to sell this romance drama.
- tend to be sweet and far more innocent

>In both dramas the male lead is portrayed by Park Seo Joon , in which he is a cold CEO
> Both dramas are romantic and have beautifully developed characters
>Actors have lovely chemistry
> If you enjoy Rom- Com this is definitely a must watch drama
> Has more witty and adult humor and does not rely on slap stick as much
> Definitely a more grown up / adult drama
> Portrays a very wholesome and somewhat realistic relationship

A comfort drama for me that is filled with lovable and memorable characters and a well written story.

I believe that the overall atmosphere and mood is similar, along with the plot. Both dramas also follow the rich man and poor girl cliché and there is no villain.

Same writer and director. Besides the fantasy elements in gumiho both dramas are structured very similarly and have the same kind of humor.

C-drama where FL works for the ML who is a CEO. They had a relationship in the past and they reconnect over the course of the episodes and fall back in love. Not as funny as What's Wrong with Secretary Kim.

The comedy reminds me of Strong Woman and it has the same kind of ridiculous moments that would never happen in real life, but are super hilarious to watch. The two shows are cheesy, but incredibly funny and entertaining. They both have the employee and boss relationship that ends up as a romance. There is a nice love triangle and those fun sound effects as well. They are both comedy and romance with some mystery. Not to mention, there's a rich male lead!

Gyun Woo is a college student, more interested in picking up girls, drinking with his buddies and avoiding his nagging mother whenever possible. While riding the subway, a drunken girl then changes his fate forever. She's nearly unconscious on the train and vomits on an older guy. She then leans over to Gyun Woo and everybody assumes she is his girlfriend! Gyun Woo soon finds himself in a relationship he didn't ask for, but soon unable to forget this sassy girl.

These two may first seem like an unlikely Recommendation but I found them eerily alike ~
The feeling you get while watching both series is the SAME! Sounds weird but it's true, my Mom felt the same too. Not because Park Min Young is the main lead in both series but because of the MOOD, the direction, the character development, the excitement of what happens next, the sometimes unrealistic scenes, the fluffiness despite the seriousness, the mystery of the character's past, and so much more. The feeling you will get as a viewer is the same.
I even cross-checked to see if the directors or writers were the same or not because I was constantly remembering WWWSK while watching Healer.

Both are a romantic comedy about an arrogant boss in denial of his feelings for his worker. Both have these bosses face the reality of her wanting to have a life and to date other men and both have a childhood connection between the ML and FL.

Both MLs are highly placed chaebol heirs sharing the a kidnapping incident at a young age. Both have nightmares about that incident even as adults and have very hard time letting go.The FLs of both dramas were also part of their traumatic childhood experience.
