Same script writer. In Story of Kunning Palace the Female Lead also tries to change her fate while running from the male lead to avoid a repeat of their previous disastrous ending.

The CDrama is a historical fantasy, while the KDama is a modern fantasy based in a high school. In the KDrama FML behaves like the main character, who is rich, and has a cold fiance/bf who doesn't like her. She has a heart condition so she faints a lot and can die any time. One day FML finds out that she is a book character, but not the main character, she's one of the support roles, who's used to connect the real ML and FML. Her fiance/bf isn't the ML in it either. Days go on, and she has to follow the set script until one day she notices someone who is not even a support but a background character who doesn't talk or interact with anyone. She takes an interest in him... And the real story starts.
From the trailer of the CDrama, they seem pretty similar in terms of concept. But what is unique is the setting and how will the characters be portrayed.

Here i am again with another recommendation but hear me out
AALS is not have the same humour the trailer of ADWAD has... but it definitely worth watching
The similarities:-
?one of the leads enters the novel's world, but in AALS the ml enters the biography of a real villainous queen in his world
?in ADWAD, the fl fights for her life. In AALS, the ml fights for fl's life and her future reputation

?Big Spoiler:- AALS is quite heartbreaking, if you watch the first episode; you will know their ending. So, prepare your tears and tissues.

- In both of this drama is based on a script book where fate is chosen.
- Each character has to play their chosen role. Even if they don't want to they are forced.
- In "Fortnite Writer" the FL is vicious villain, opposite of "A Dream Within a Dream". But female lead try her best to change her role.
- Both ML is also cold and has villain vibes.
