The FL gets hired by the ML's family to be his caretaker and make him fall in love again. The ML's family is supportive of the FL and hostile of his ex. The main leads have a slow burn hate to love relationship development. ML's ex comes back into the picture as well creating a love triangle.

in girlfriend the male lead is a CEO and the female lead is a poor girl who is trying her best and same goes is rich man the male lead is CEO and the female lead is a poor girl who is trying her best.
in rich man the male lead is trying to find his ex girlfriend but he does not remembers her face because he has a disease because of that disease he cannot remember faces but he is trying to find the girl with some kind of name and that girl is the female lead.
and in girlfriend the male lead is trying to find the girl who saved his while he was drowning in water but he does not remember her face but he is trying to find the girl with the birthmark she had on her right shoulder and by kiss. although i have not watched all the episode of girlfriend but i think the girl that male lead is trying to find is the female lead.

Both have a male lead with seamingly cold personality.. he searched for the person who saved his life (the female lead) for a long period of time (atleast a few years) and seemed like a perfect match for him, but it was deceived from another woman, whom he desired to date, but dumped after suspecting her sham. Then he meets the one for whom he searched for, but because of her strange behaviour suspects she is a paparazzi snooping for scoops about him or another gold-digger, running after him. Both male leads are obsessed with stuff being clean. The main heroine is messier than the male lead. Is sloppy and clumsy. Is poor, while he is rich.
It takes them both time to fall in love as the heroine have to overcome a long-time crush/love of hers.
The main hero chases after the heroine.. not quite realising why and whether he loves her or not.

In both stories, the girl and the CEO starts on a bad foot but eventually got to know each other. The CEOs in both stories try to push an upcoming star in the spotlight as someone tries to push her down. In respect, there's a jealous ex in the background scheming around.

Both of these dramas give me similar vibes and I love both of them. The female leads are quite similar in terms of personality and fashion style. The male leads are both the CEO of a company as well. Both dramas are more of a light-hearted drama about romance-comedy. The most important is that their chemistry is on point! There's more similarities but I can't think of anymore right now.

In both the main hero is in search for the heroine half of his life.. At first then met by an accident. When he suspect he found her.. he treat the heroine well.. Then he think he made a mistake..., but even so.. fall in love with the heroine.
In both the main hero is very cold and stingy with money at the start, but no so much at the end.

- Male lead is CEO/president
- Female lead is an actress
- Same shooting locations (apartment, office, hospital, I may have missed others)

Overall, Girlfriend is a better version of WIL2
