It is similar in the way that they are both about family a long running drama, where you follow both the older and younger generation. Family constellation and love and relationship.

Both are family dramas, both soap operas in their feel, but more over they both make you root for the characters stories and their growth. You get invested into the drama. BMDF is a bit intimidating because of the high eps volume but once you get into it it’s addictive! I LOVED the series OA and was cheering for characters and after about 20eps into BMDF I really felt the same way! I’m sure you won’t be disappointed with either watch as long as you don’t mind the length. Both were very good family dynamics drama shows.

Once Again and Smile You are pretty similar to each other since both of the dramas falls under the issue of having problems with their In-laws. Thus having to see both families get intertwined together. We get to see how each family struggle and grow at the same time in accepting each of the family members strange antics.

Both dramas have heartwarming stories that will surely portray what it means to be a family.

Once Again and Five Enough both explore non-nuclear family structures, heartbreak and difficult family relationships after divorce endearingly. Five Enough was probably a bit more realistic (laying out the difficulties of being in a single-parent household, particularly in regards to raising children and catering to in-laws at the same time). Once Again is slightly more comedic and focuses on personal development in heavy circumstances like divorce instead.

If you like sentimental, touching moments as well as light-hearted, family-appropriate humour, you will love these two.

Both of these shows are focused very heavily on families and how they affect us, both balance comedy, romance and drama amazingly and their characters are both written beautifully. While Once Again can deal with more heavy issues (but not too heavy) these two shows will make you feel happier for having seen the characters and your own self reflected back from the characters.

Although they are different in terms of the length and genre, both shows falls in marriage. In Once Again, there are a lot of couples that were divorced but the main couple's cause of their fallout is similar to the main couple in VIP. I highly recommend both!

Both dramas features a divorced couple falling in love again!
It is a fmaily drama with comedy and romance, both dramas have innocent romance!
Recommended by DeobiMars
Other than sharing Lee Sang Yi in both shows, both shows focus on the people's relationships.

Natural, easy going, not much dramatic filled moments.

Slice of life dramas with romance, and filled with colorful supporting cast.

Both share cold and aloof female leads, who both share trauma that makes them that way. Both take a while to thaw out their pain to be happier in the end.

The famioy drama, the dynamics. The sibling rivalry. When the twin gets replaced with the fake one because the real one doesnt mind. Reminded me a lot of Centimeter when the FL gets treated badly by dad.

Both dads believe they are doing the best thing. I dont know. Once Again is prob more intense and multidimensional. The lead couple dont get together but in centimetre after eo20 they stick together like glue

Not sure about the similarities however Once Again really is a great drama full of different topics and elements based on relationships, family every slice of life that you could think of. An overwhelming sense to agree or disagree with the characters honestly a fat rewatch.
