My Uncanny Destiny (2023)

both FL have a temper and formidable persistence

both decide and help each other

FL disguised as a man

They are always one step ahead on scheming and such

Both are historical dramas with a female emperor who the court thinks is a man and only those close to her know the truth. Both MLs are very devoted and affectionate to the FL.

same premise and feeling. the fl hiding her identity and falling in love while in disguise. although my uncanny destiny solves the issue relatively faster that the heiress and takes a different route they both have many similarities.

Both of these dramas are hilarious, they actually have a similar style of humour! The FL in both is played by Zhang Yue Nan.

- Yan Zi Xian is ML in both dramas,
- comedic moments,
- ML is the emperor,
- FL helps ML with court,
- a little bit of bickering,
- ML is madly in love with FL

Related to the 1st arc
- Yan Zi Xian is the ML in both
- Puppy MLs that are absolutely smitten with FL
- SFL who tries to get in between ML & FL (almost the exact same character ngl)
- Feisty and rather unconventional FLs who don't need saving and can hold their own
- SML trying to ruin ML's life (CL is way more angsty about it)
- Both MLs are high ranking (in MUD he's a king, in CL he's a rich merchant)
- Comedies but CL is more angsty
- Power couple

the same ridiculous 4rth wall breaking historical romance. they both are comedic versions of many palace drama and historical cliches.

- opposing cities;
- great comedy;
- bickering between mains;
- funny servants;
- debates on roles of men and women

- unification of empires/cities;
- ML and FL are city lords/emperor/empress;
- smart and capable FL;
- ML and FL are good in martial arts;
- ML and FL join forces

While completely different in tone (MUD is light and funny, TKA is much darker and heavier) both begin with the king killing the midwives to hide a birth secret and the FL being raised as a male crown prince.

Strong female leads who have to hide their real strength/selves. Cat and mouse cleverness games between leads. Royalty ML who falls first and falls harder. Lots of comedy.

- ML loves FL dearly,
- ML is known to have good looks,
- ML and FL are of noble origin,
- FL is a powerful woman, who is strong in politics and performs traditionally male duties,
- shows what hard desicions an emperor must make

- strong FL;
- ML and FL are rulers;
- bickering relationship;
- similar costumes;
- FL does not know her identity

This was more realization to FL behaviour

Both have strong personalities and are humorous.

Has comedy yet there's still a content.

- Strong FLs that are a force to be reckoned with (smart and brave)
- Both FLs pretend(ed) to be men and behave in unconventional ways (tomboys)
- Both FLs are high ranking individuals (in MUD FL is a ruler while in OMG she's a general)
- Actually funny comedy and quite a lot of it
- MLs are royals/noblemen very focused on their looks (and with a temper)
- Loving ML who supports FL through anything
- Lead couple have a rocky start but end up being a perfectly matched power couple
- Gender role reversal (in MUD it's more subtle than in OMG)
- Sisterhood
- Both FLs have a woman who's in love with her male persona

Oh My General balances comedy with its more serious tone while My Uncanny Destiny is mostly a comedy with some serious moments.
