With a colossal background, the two performers are very compatible and have good chemistry. The story is political, revenge, but also very funny.

- Both star Zhao Lusi as the FL
- In both dramas the ML likes the FL from the very beginning and the FL does not reciprocate (at first)
- The FL is oblivious to the ML's feelings for her despite how obvious he is until he confesses.
- The main leads have a similar type of relationship in relation to how they work together. They are really good at solving problems (criminal investigations) together.
- Main leads have very different personalities but they fit together.
- Both star a strong ML and FL. In WRTW the FL can beat up all her enemies using her physical strength whilst in LLTG she does this by setting traps and being honest.
- Both FL's are looked down on by other people for not following social customs and are often perceived as rude and immoral.
- ML is high ranking, a powerful person everyone looks up to. A person who knows and abides by the rules but will break all of them for the FL.
- Just about every guy falls for the FL in both dramas.
- The ML would do anything for the FL even at the cost of his life.

Female leads family situation in love like the galaxy is similar to female lead in the story of minglan
The young Cheng Shao Shang was left behind because her parents had gone off to fight in the war. In order to protect herself from her scheming aunt, she had to be extra diligent while pretending to be the opposite. However, years of estrangement have made it difficult for them to become family again.
Lacking love her whole life, Cheng Shao Shang is both pragmatic and insecure in choosing a partner for marriage. She encounters three men—the emperor's adopted son Ling Bu Yi, the talented Yuan Shen of Bailu Mountain, and the aristocrat Lou Yao who each have their pros and cons. Although the road to love is bumpy, she never regrets any choice she makes. Through her interactions with Ling Bu Yi, she unintentionally becomes involved in the mystery surrounding his family and his identity. The two grow from their experiences and work together, upholding the righteousness in their hearts to resolve a national crisis.

Never made a recommendation before, but I feel like you would like Under the power if you like the good vibes the leads in love like the galaxy give. We can' t compare budgets, but the story and leads are equally captivating. What made me get over Under the power was love like the galaxy!
ML and FL have similar characters - FL is intelligent, righteous and brave; ML is a soldier/fighter and feels cold/ruthless at the beginning. On top of this, the backdrop is similar - revenge plot, the imperial court and fighting amongst the royal family.
The story is not exactly similar and its a modern drama but the Main couple have similar personalities.
Ling BuYi for some reason reminds me of Ou Chen with his overbearing/controlling methods and making decisions for the FL for her own good. Also his deep almost obsessive love for the FL to the point where he can't live without her and he made sacrifices behind the scene to make her happy.
Chen ShaoShang is also kinda similar to Yin XiaMo, savage, practical and scheming, doesn't consider love as priority as long as she can live a stable life. Treated ML coldly knowing he loves her, at first.
Both care about their loved ones and are vengeful. Both develop throughout the story and learn how to truly love.
Theres 2 adaptations of Summer's Desire, and I think both are worth watching depending on which pair actor/actress you like better.

they are both simillar in the sense that both ml are in military position and both the fls were abandoned by their family for 10 years. both have two ml after the fl but in fall in love the ml and fl work together then fall in love. both are period dramas and both have some sense of comedy. just in this show the fl step mum and sister are evil kinda similar with how fl in lltg had other girls plot evil things after her. overall acting and storyline is great and it is a very underrated show :) check it out
If you liked LLGT then you will definitely like the lighter & princess. Even though they have different genre and plot but chemistry and tension between lead is same. Li Xun and Ling Buyi are very much similar, they both love their FL to the point they can do anything for them but at the same time hide many things from them for their safety. Zhu Yun and Cheng ShaoShang also have many similarities, they are headstrong and can fight with anyone for their love, they both support their partner selflessly. They both have mothers who try to take control of their life and supporting father. SML in both drama are reliable friend for them after separation in drama.
- the leads are both extremely intelligent and the only ones who can outsmart each other.
- the female lead is also the daughter of a famous general in the army and the male lead is a smart and powerful captain in the army.
- the chemistry between the leads is top-notch. they’ll give you all the feels
- the costumes are beautiful and the scenography is captivating. i loved how the used the lights and there’re some beautiful scenes with fireflies and lanterns.
- the OSTs are beautiful and on point.
- the story is captivating, full of plot twists and with no plot holes.
- the mom of LLTG’s FL here acts as the previous crown princess.
- I’d rewatch it over and over again

I suggest watching The Rebel Princess if you enjoyed LLTG.
Both have:
- Cerebral plots
- Good cinematography, set design, OST, costumes, and overall production value
-Serious tension between ML and FL (total power couple)
-Strong, stoic, and feared General (who's a total softy for his woman)
-Small but fiercely intelligent and resourceful FL
-Palace politics (Rebel Princess is more palace politics heavy than LLTG).
