It is similar that the main characters of both dramas are reputable professionals of law and something will happen that will put a dent on their career. Both also teaches in a law school. The drama will revolve on the their relationship with their student/s although it may include romance in "Why Her?".

These two dramas have a lot in common, such as a law school setting, a conglomerate scandal, a murder mystery, and a strong female lead. Both dramas also have various characters in legal practitioners such as lawyers, prosecutors, judges, paralegals, law students, law professors, and police officers. The difference is that in Why Her, the main female character fights the conglomerates, while in The Empire the main female character is the conglomerate itself.

Both are kind of biography of the leads. In both of the drama, the story revolves around one main case. In case of big mouth, it revolves around seo jaeyeong's paper and in why her, it's an accident and SA case.
In both of the drama, antagonist boils your blood but still dies peacefully.

Both the glory and why her have the same vibe. FL going against a big enemy. And also both have a mismatched age gap imo

Both tackle the situation of a famous lawyer that is forced to take a leave from their jobs after a case doesn't go the way they expected. They both end up being professors too while trying to get their positions back.

Similarities:
- Oh Soo Jae (Why Her?) / Hwang Do hee (Queenmaker): capable women that go above and beyond for the company they work for and are considered the aces of the company.
- Both have revenge//seeking redemption arcs
- The Female leads have a long and complicated history//relationship with their bosses.
- There’s a suicide case that's blamed on the FLs
-They have unexpected turns and bomb truths


Differences:
- Why her? Is a law drama whereas Queenmaker is a political drama.
- Queenmaker has a sisterhood focus Why Her leans a little into noona romance but its main focus is Oh Soo Jae
-Why Her? feels, for me, darker and heavier.

Both fls are one of my favorites. Both rock a bob and more seriously, both dramas are about 2 competent, smart, beautiful women that builded their careers from the ground up but both face the same discrimination and close mindedness of the man centered corruptions
Both also have 2 psycho bosses that do know and acknowledge the fls powers but still can't tolerate a woman in power

The similarities are uncanny

- ML was framed and kicked out of Hospital
- Hospital President gave the position to his son after taking advantage of ML competence
- ML went to jail and surfaces as a lawyer to start a new.
- ML came back to prove himself and take his position back.

Why Her

- FL was kicked out of law firm after a scandal she had nothing to do
- Law firm CEO gave the position to his who is incompetent
- FL was exiled to law school where starts a new

Both have similar genres ( Mystery, Law, Crime, Drama etc.)
Both leads are uncovering a major conspiracy
It seems as one of the lead's mentor is a part of the conspiracy in both shows
