Both are set in a fantasy world. FL is similar to the FL of Ashes of Love. Both are low ranking fairies and are bullied by other fairies. A lot of the same fantasy elements are also present in Ashes of Love. ML are pretty different though
There is some dialogue in Nice flight that talks about how the skies are connected for airplane flying and it automatically reminded me of Soratobu with the iconic skies connected line. Both dramas are also about aircrafts and include similar themes.
Both dramas discuss the unsung heroes of their respective workplaces. Unsung cinderella has no romance while Nice Flight likely has romance. Both are very heartwarming dramas.
Both shows have a dark fairytale vibe. It’s Okay is a bit more emotional and deals with mental health issues. The comedy is also a little darker and there’s no real magic in It’s Okay. The romance is pretty central in both surrounded by the slow reveal of the leads’ past.
I really liked the magical elements of Jinxed at First and was trying to think of other shows that had this level of magic. The only one that came to mind is Hotel del Luna. Both have good world building and the scale of the show and story feels really big and powerful, like any good fairytale. Hotel del Luna also has a romance, but it’s not as central to the story. The vibe of these shows is pretty similar.
Both are heartbreaking stories involving FLs that try to distance themselves from the ML who they love but know they won't be able to stay with because of terminal illness.

Differences:
- Bad buddy is fast-paced, while Rak Diao is quite slow-burn
- Bad buddy: University Setting, Rak Diao: Office Setting (indicator for the characters' age range in the series)

Female leads in both dramas are Plain Jane. Their "strict and stylish" female bosses would later change them into Stylish Jane.
