The plot is not similar but concept is similar
- ML/FL dies by the villians
- ML/FL gets a second chance
- ML/FL goes 10 years back for planning their perfect revenge on those people who belittle them
- ML/FL transformation from pushover to badass confident as they know the future already about who are on their side & who are hypocrites
- Again My Life is about a Prosecutor whereas Marry My Husband is about a housewife
- I feel its similar to the recent drama Perfect Marriage Revenge but in that only difference is FL went only 1 year back & In Marry My Husband its 10 years back

"Deep Love: Love Again," a Chinese drama, and the Korean drama "Marry My Husband" share notable similarities in their exploration of complex romantic relationships and the themes of love, betrayal, and revenge. Both dramas focus on the emotional turmoil that arises from infidelity and deceit, highlighting the deep psychological scars and the ensuing quest for retribution. The protagonists in each series are strong, resilient women who confront significant personal challenges and navigate through intricate emotional dynamics. These narratives emphasize the intensity of romantic relationships and the profound impact of betrayal, making both dramas compelling in their portrayal of love's darker facets.

Similar the male lead cheats on the female lead with her best friend but MMH has the theme of going back in time.

In both, the ML fell first and hard. The ML in both was deeply in love with FL for a long time before she falls for him. Both are office romances. MLs are introverted and don’t share much but have deep feelings. FLs are livelier although one is darker than the other.

1)Both revenge dramas
2)The glory has much better storyline than marry my husband.
3)Main villains of both dramas get what they deserve and leave you satisfied.
4)The FLs of both dramas are very strong willed and have great personality.
5)The villains of both dramas will get on your neves and make you wish them dead.

Main lady also have a fake best friend who is very much jealous of her life and a shit boyfriend/husband who betray her with the best friend. In both, main lady starts being sweet and kind. Their strength comes with main guy's help. There's no time travelling or an elaborate revenge in Personal Taste but main lady learns (more slowly) to stand for herself.
BUT, however, Personal Taste is from 2010 and some plots didn't age well. If you can overlook it and not watch it with an anachronistic thought, it's a good fun and see Lee Min Ho and Son Ye Jin it's always good. ?

Both dramas show the time travel of the characters in response to a significant betrayal. In "Marry My Husband," the female lead (FL) travels back in time because her husband cheats on her with her most trusted best friend. Similarly, in "Shining for One Thing: The Movie (2023)" the FL travels back in time due to her boyfriend's infidelity with her most trusted best friend.

General Murong Qiu Yu was infatuated with the second prince Li Mo, she aided him in seizing the throne. However, she was betrayed and killed by Li Mo and her sister Murong Xin Er. After being reborn, Qiu Yu found herself back on her wedding night with the seventh prince, Li Jian. Qiuy Y decided to join forces with Li Mo's rival, Li Jian, to ensure that Murong Xin Er and Li Mo face the punishment they deserve...

Both dramas beautifully depict how a woman (or women) takes revenge on men (their husbands) for different reasons. Both the shows uncover great revenge stories which are fun to watch for the audience.

MMH draws upon the long tradition of female wish fulfilment kdramas in particular, it mirrors Scent of a woman heavily

Both FLs discover their husband cheating on them with their friend, are pushed, hit their head, and die/are believed dead. They then get either a second chance at life or new identity and set out for revenge. Both FLs' husbands are unable to have children but the FLs are blamed. There is a man who secretly loves and helps the FLs.

The both dramas show time travel of characters. In twinkling watermelon, ml travels back in time and helps his father while in marry my husband, fl travels into the time.

MMH tried to main 3 things- Revenge, Romance and Extramarital Affairs.

t had a great cause for revenge and a good setup with the time travel..unfortunately carried out by a protagonist who did not look like someone who was on a mission after being cheated on, betrayed and eventually murdered but given a 2nd chance in life to correct things. There was very little conviction in her act. The retaliations and conflicts with the main antagonist felt so flat and almost childish throughout. It was challenging to fully empathize with her character or become emotionally invested in her route to victory because of her attitude. Ultimately ended feeling unsatisfied with her victory. PMY suffered almost every possible misfortune yet had lesser burning desire than BoA who came late into the picture with super overboard reactions for what seemed like relatively smaller reasons. Sums it up really.
