I think the vibes of having celebrity like characters are the same though really different storyline. Still surrounding about idols or celebrities in general.
- Similar female lead (both sassy and unbothered, very rare in dramas to have female leads like this, so if you really like this trope, you would for sure like one of these two dramas)
- Cold woman/Warm man ('Warm man' is more applicable for Doona! I would say, but both have definitely this theme)
- Mental Health
- Overall vibe feels similar with a slightly serious tone

Doona and To My Star are two series I could never get tired of rewatching. Both feature the grumpy x sunshine trope with an idol who's on hiatus due to a controversy. In one, the lead ends up living with him as roommates, and in the other, she lives just one floor below. And the angst with "stop using me because you're bored" trope hits hard in both??
Similar vibe with bold female lead and innocent, cold male lead. Both dramas share a comparable dynamic a strong, confident female lead paired with a reserved, emotionally distant male lead. Surprisingly, I started watching both with low expectations, but they turned out to be absolutely worth it. The chemistry between the leads is top-notch, and the acting is genuinely impressive. The endings felt similar.
Pontifex Rembrary, a character known for his divine powers, gets transported to a new world while fighting a devil. He possesses the body of Woo Yeon Woo, a member of an unpopular idol group, and helps turn the group's fortunes around after a disastrous live performance. With his charisma and divine powers, he becomes popular among fans but faces challenges from his past, contending with strange religious groups and the devil.
Starring Bae Suzy, this Netflix original series is a haunting character study of a top star who simply snaps under pressure. The Core Issue: The story follows a girl who is the most popular member of a mega-hit idol group. Right at the peak of her fame, she suffers a severe psychological breakdown due to overwhelming anxiety, panic disorders, and the claustrophobia of never being allowed to be a normal human being. She abruptly leaves the industry to hide out in a student share-house.
How it handles reality: While a quiet, realistic relationship develops, the show is not a standard romance. It is incredibly heavy. It focuses on the severe PTSD, depression, and identity loss that occurs when a young girl realizes she has spent her entire youth being treated like a product rather than a person. Because Suzy lived that exact life, her performance gives the character an unsettling, deeply grounded realism.

“Beauty Inside” is a celebrity romance drama that really warmed my heart. It tells the story of Han Se Kye (Seo Hyun Jin), a top actress who must spend one week out of each month living in someone else’s body, and Seo Do Jae (Lee Min Ki), a brilliant man who suffers from prosopagnosia, the inability to recognize faces. While trying to overcome the unusual difficult challenges of their own lives, they end up finding each other to share their vulnerable sides with. Throughout the drama, it keeps on driving the question of whether you can love someone only for who they are on the inside and really makes you think.
This drama includes a little bit of everything – comedy, romance, music, friendship, and family. Yoon Tae In (Lee Jun Young) is the leader of the globally popular idol group LUNA who suffers from sleepwalking. In Yoon Joo (Jung In Sun) pretends to be a doctor that can treat his condition and ends up moving in to LUNA’s dorm. If you’re looking for a lighthearted and heartwarming celebrity romance drama that you can watch without much stress, “Let Me Be Your Knight” is perfect for you
