Nang Nak is the clearest telling of the Mae Nak legend available. It really will help with understanding Nak Rak Mak Maak Maak if you've seen it first.
If you've seen Nang Nak or the other adaptations, Nak Loves Mak is a sweet riff on the legend.

SIMILARITY
1. both dramas reveal the complex and messiest details of the industry, showing how dark and evil it can be, along with the jealousy, competition, and the way friendships get ruined, like what happened between jae hee and raik.
2. both stories focus on powerful and influential main characters. although the female lead wasn’t powerful at first and struggled her way to the top, the male lead is the richest and most influential of them all, and is extremely obsessed with and protective of the female lead.
3. the main theme in both dramas is mystery, revolving around the death of someone (possibly the heroine—no spoilers), which keeps the story intense and engaging throughout, despite having a happy ending.
4. both dramas have strong soundtracks, but celebrity stands out with its sharp, intense visuals that make the scenes even more gripping and keep you completely hooked.

SIMILARITY
1. the judge from hell is so good and has the same male lead as this drama. kim jae yeong portrayed his character to a T. both dramas are heavier on emotional backstory, with loads of childhood trauma that makes you bawl your eyes out.
2. in this drama, he is a murder suspect, and in that one, he is investigating and trying to find his parents’ killer. he also suspects and stalks the FL because he thinks she is a murderer as well. that drama is similar to this one in both mystery and romance, and the romance there is so good—the chemistry is so hot, it takes time to build up, and he is cute and assertive there too.
3. kang bit na, portrayed by park shin hye, is a total psycho, an absolute nutjob, and she is so crazy you can’t help but love her. she is morally black, similar to how maeng sena here is portrayed as someone who would do anything for money.

Both "We Best Love: No. 1 For You" and "Bad Buddy" are enemies-to-lovers, with main characters knowing each other since they were kids.
The plot looks similar
Both the demon and the gumiho will turn into a human after meeting the leads and both the demon and gumiho is a narcissistic and refuse to become a human
Not sure but I think this couple will also have a past life drama

Very similar in the fact that the male lead was the female lead ex and they both come back to the school as the director

The first half of "Feng Ta" is very similar to "Forever Love", but "Forever Love" commits way more to the role reversal and doesn't do a bait-and-switch, which "Feng Ta" does in the second half.
