Both drama relate to music and start out with the ML and FL as enemies who eventually become lovers. Whilst so I married an anti-fan has the male lead as an idol artist, heartstrings revolves around a ML who plays in a band and the FL who plays traditional Korean music.

Both have similar or I'll say the same stories as drama is a remake of the movie having even same name

Lee Shin is a university student majoring in modern music. He is the vocalist of the band "The Stupid" and also plays the guitar. He is known for his good looks and his strong passion for music but is in reality a cold person who is uninterested in non-music related things and has no dreams nor plans for the future. Shin initially likes a dance professor at his university, but this all changes when he meets Lee Kyu Won. Lee Kyu Won is a bright and outgoing student who was born into a prestigious family and is majoring in traditional Korean instruments, especially the gayageum. Kyu Won's grandfather, Lee Dong Gun, is one of the top 3 traditional musicians of his age, and his biggest wish is to have his granddaughter trained to become a traditional music prodigy in 10 years' time. Trying to live up to her grandfather's expectations, Kyu Won immerses herself in training and becomes a university student who knows nothing besides traditional music. As Kyu Won's friends are fans of "The Stupid", she was forced to go to the band's concert with them. There, she saw Lee Shin performing live and is immediately captivated by him.

Hoo Joon is a top star and Geun Young is a magazine reporter who both attend a club’s opening night. There, Young witnesses Joon's violent behavior and accidentally vomits on him. Young loses her job and is convinced that Joon has to be behind her firing. She retaliates by demonstrating in front of Joon’s management office, where her picketing eventually garners some media attention and the anti-fan label.

if you liked the second couple (ep 3 - 5) in adult trainee. then you will definitely enjoy "so i married an anti-fan"

This drama shows the life of a kpop idol with male lead, which is similar to this drama(the heavenly idol) his struggles/success and failures and change in the relation with an anti fan to becoming her life partner -- this sweet romcom and heavenly idol both showing us the life of a kpop idol

- male leads are idols
- female leads are writers SIAAF the female lead became writer at the end while in FH the female lead was a writer from the beginning
- male lead and female lead had conflicts but later fell in love
- both have nice houses

Well, the stories are completely different. But they have the same director, and there's a similar feel here and there. Though SIMAAF seems much better (it's still airing as I'm writing this XD). If you just want a lighthearted rom-com, give MSR a try. Personally, I liked it very much.

- both couples shoot a reality show
- ml and fl hate eachother in the start
- love grows between them
If you enjoyed so i married an antifan you'll definitely like our beloved summer
