Both are historical dramas in which the couple marries at the beginning - one of them is happy for the marriage and the other very unhappy. Despite being seemingly very mismatched the two end up complimenting each other's strengths and weaknesses and fall in love.

Another recent Jin Yong adaptation with great martial arts, good casting, a plot about foreign invaders and different sects fighting one another.

This might seem a bit far-fetched, but this Korean movie also deals with issues about good governance and the difficult choices officials were faced with. For history buffs!

Both are historical shows with complex plots, smart main characters, and a great attention to detail.

Both series are BL romantic comedy fluff of a similar type, even though the plot, actors, and everything else are different.
I don't really like either series, but I can see how others might enjoy it. Both feature a somewhat neurotic lead character and a more confident love interest, but rather than being shy about a secret crush, the lead in Wedding Plan is being pursued by the groom-to-be of the wedding he has been hired to plan. The bride-to-be actually encourages the groom to pursue the wedding planner, and in any case, she already has her own girl friend.
It is an odd situation that the already neurotic lead character isn't mentally prepared for (not that most anyone would be). Also the love interest teases the lead by sort of acting like an ass hole. I am slightly exaggerating the similarities here because the series are different, but it has the same vibe as Secret Crush.

It is genuinely amusing, but a little bit less flamboyant than Secret Crush, but regardless, neither series interested me. Wedding Plan isn't for me, but rather for someone that liked Secret Crush.

If you like to lovely liar you will also like I hear voice. In my lovely Liars she can only hears you when you tell the lie but in I hear your voice he hears everything which you think in the mind.

- Healing , cute and comforting series, with a solid couple, even the viewers are despairing to see them so cautious!!
- Story well written, intelligent, full of wisdom.
- Slow paced to fit the rhythm of life of the inhabitants.
- Magnificent landscapes, magnificent images... Makes you want to go to Dali (Yunnan):)
- Extraordinary actors: grand-mother, aunts, children, roommates,... => very endearing.
- the OSTs are fitting, beautiful... Perfect.

Both tell the story of a childhood-formed deep connection. In both, the MC's grow up with their friend in their mind - living in a world of their own. And learning to establish their connection, as they grow, in a healthy way for them and for their surroundings.

Both movies were written and directed by the same person, besides that on the surface they dont look like they have much in common. However, both movies discuss themes of love, both have sad elements and in both theres an age gap between the characters.

Two men become attracted to eachother, they face up and downs.
Both are japanese movies in which the central couple has an age gap too and the theme of family is relevant in both.

Two men, one of them being a sex worker, start a romantic relationship hide it in front of the parents of one of them though. However, his partner comes over to eat alot and he forms a bond with the guys mum.
Still, theyre met with tragedy.

Both are japanese movies that have lgbtq themes. They follow a gay adult man as he develops a strong bond/relationship to another person. However, things dont go smoothly, tragedy hits and he instead tries to connect with the family of the man he loves.
