Both are supernatural dramas with vampire/vampire-like creatures. The protagonist in both dramas transforms into a monster after a traumatic experience. They both also refuse to turn completely into a monster and stay partly human.
A sassy rich lead moves to the country side and falls in love with a friendly, poor person. That person makes the lead change themselves and grow. Both dramas show the rural life and the people living there act like one big family. The shows show the beauty of a simple life.
Both dramas are about a princess who, due to circumstances, have to grow up outside the palace. For sometime in her life, she doesn’t know she’s a princess. She eventually returned to her kingdom and was a very good asset in helping/saving her people. Princess Deokman in Queen Seon Deok uses her wits, Princess Pyeonggang also does it plus she also fights some battles for her people.

> Amazing performances from both leads to the supporting casts, and even a senior actor with a prominent role (Suyang in Princess Man and King Yeongjo in Red Sleeve)
> There are a lot of other historical romance melodramas (you can see from the other recommendations here), but these two dramas are both well made, received high ratings, and great reviews in Korea and abroad.

FM is crazy about ML
ML acts like he doesn't like her back
ML is smarter than her
SML is athletic and popular
both are school dramas that follow their friendships and are low stakes

these dramas both have similar themes to each other
trauma, family and friendship to name the main points
both balance the heaviness of the subject matter with breaks of light-heartedness (more so in IOTNBO) and humour.

Similar vibes. Both romances are between a prince and someone who works in the palace so its a similar dynamic there and comes with similar conflicts.
It's a story between clans just like in noble aspirations and the clans are completely opposite of each other...also due to past Life feuds and grievances the, ml and fl fall in love with each other in their 9th reincarnation . This also a very interesting drama to watch ...i especially like the ml as the efforts he put are really heart touching... although they get many misunderstandings in the way. U will like the chemistry of both the supporting couple as well as the lead couple ..MUST WATCH DRAMA!!

Life of a palace maid getting loved by the prince/king.
Teaches a lot about Joseon's palace life
Romantic Sageuk.
FUN FACT: King in Dong Yi (played by Ji Jin Hee) is the father of the King in Red Sleeve (played by Lee Duk Hwa) i.e. great grandfather of Yi San (played by Lee Jun Ho). All three loved a palace maid.
Red Sleeve is a melodrama, whereas Dong Yi is more... eventful and happier perhaps?
