Well-Intended Love (2019)

In both the dramas, the ML tricks the FL into marriage. ( In Well Intended Love, he did it for he was in love with the FL, In OWGM, he does it for his business). There is also a crazy SFL in both the dramas who is in love with ML from a young age.

Also, the SML is played by the same actor in both the dramas.. who is in love with FL for a long time but never got to confess.

Both FL are tricked into thinking they have a terminal illness. They also fall in love because of this terminal illness. Still the secret around the terminal illness in Well Intended Love is more so earth shattering than the secret around the illness of Love, Now. However keep in mind that this Love, Now is a long drama (72 episodes). If you don't feel up to that I do extremely recommend Well Intended Love which is a great drama. I hope you enjoy both.

It is the prequel of well intended love 2..Same Actors and even same character names ..But the Story is different.
If you enjoyed season 2 then U might also try season 1 .
These are two different stories so U don’t need to watch one season for another you can watch separately.

Both have manipulative CEO who will do anything to get the girl. They both enter a contact relationship.

Both have strong Male leads that seem to drag the female leads along in an undertow of life all the while you can see that they clearly care very much for their partner. Ling Yi Zhou reminds me so much of Xiao Nai with a mix of Feng Teng from "Boss & Me" to the point where I would not have been surprised if Gu Man had written all three dramas. (She didn't.)

Xia Lin is a strong minded lead that seems to be a nice mix from the sweetness of Xue Shan Shan, and the pragmatism of Bei Wei Wei.

You have also two couples to watch in both dramas, though I will state that I like the second couple's relationship better in "Well Intended Love".

A rich guy and a woman sign a relationship contract. The guy is obsessed with the girl and do everything which he thinks it is good for the FL without asking her permission. In the beginning the girl is quite unwillingly but later on...

Both are a contract relationship between the FL who needs something from the ML and the ML who is wealthy. Both marriages grow into true love.

In both the series:
1. there's contract marriage
2. female lead's career is still in process
3.male lead already likes the female lead
4. there's a person to keep a check on the newly wed couple

When I watched IL some of the scenes reminded me of WIL.

For example:
Where the FL gets into the ML’s car thinking it is her Uber or something.
The ML & FL keep their relationship secret
Cold ML/ warm FL

But I liked WIL more than IL. So if you are looking for something more chilled and fluffy Well Intended Love is for you.

Both of these dramas there is a contract marriage story , smart wife & husband too who will love each other & hardly have miss-understanding drifting them apart for long time . Truly Legend of Yunxi my most favorite historical drama of such a them of contract marriage & this new Chinese drama “ Well intended love “ becoming my most favorite modern drama of same genre so far , taking in consideration that I have been watching Asian dramas for 11 years for now..

Both are dramas with a contract marriage between the main couple. Both MLs are extremely possessive CEOs.

the two is about contract marriage of a CEO or president and a poor woman who desperatly needs money

Both has CEO ML also hardworking FL, pretend relationship, marriage without love.........................

*both drama ML cherish FL by helping and providing them comfortable life without knowing FL

*in both FL lead confess their love first without knowing that ML fall first for her and chasing them

*in both drama ML have sister/friend who like him and annoyed by FL relation with ML and make trouble for them
