The similarities... Damn it i wont spoil you but you will definitely feel more about the second main leads. They are honestly the show stealers. Though the main couples are ok the sls is real. Especially all that doomed love theme about them...

Ghosts, intrigues, a bit of thriller and trying to unveil a past incident in order for our mcs to finally move on. Though all this if you focus in the ghost part of Oh My Ghostess(leave out the romance part).

I might spoil you so lets just say that both drama have similar elements and moods. Both drama are about love and acceptance. Both drama show the struggle that comes along with being yourself and love the person you love in a world that doesn't seem to accept you. Though Ototo no Otto focuses more on family and Make your Days Count is a romance drama, they both show love in all its glory and pain.

Peppermint Candy shares the same structure and tone as Cities of Last Things. In the Korean film, major events in Korean history influenced his central character’s tortured soul.

In both drama our fl falls in love first but does so without knowing a very important detail that the ml knows and hides from her until things escalate. Although the secrets arent similar they both have to do with a third person and their involvement with both of our mcs. Family is also an important presence in both drama as is the fact that our ml has an issue that has to do with his brain.

In Ash is Purest white, film director Jia Zhangke uses the same narrative technique : going backwards in time to the most important moments of main female protagonist.

Showbiz, secrets and our ml didn't really like our fl in the beginning but they got together after dealing with lots of rumours and troubles. Also the fl has to deal with a bad reputation at first and the ml has a medical condition.

If you want to see another film that uses the same technique -a film that moves back in time in a triptych of pivotal days- but sequentially you can watch Jia Zhangke's Mountains may depart.

Both drama are office romances that revolve around an older woman and a younger man. There is some business related issues along with some questions that one asks as they grow up and start working. Both drama dont try to portray perfect characters but they show them as regular people, sometimes as a coward or a bit problematic in some incidents.

- They are both Bl series where the mains at first hate each other but then the other develop a crush on the other lead.
- Both have that secret crush thing but it comes up pretty quickly and Tharn and Bbom both tell Type and Jin that they like them.

> Both are historical or at least have some historical parts
> Themes of reincarnation are present in both shows
> A murder mystery is central to the plot
> The supporting characters, especially the underlings of the lead guys, are very funny and are really great parts of both shows.

Both contain a family oriented plot.
There are many similarities in the two dramas e.g. the plot lines, drama length etc.

=> Shin Min Ah is so good in playing these cute mystical beings in an almost "impossible romance"
=> The chemistry between both leads are amazing
=> Male leads started out as somehow full of themselves but later grows as a character due to Shin Min Ah's character
=> One notable difference is there is no annoying rival female in Arang and the Magistrate, so you can watch Arang if you don't like those kind of characters.

In Both dramas the wife leaves the husband and marries the richer guy. In LA the child goes with the mother so does here.

Both dramas are heartless made to feel NTR feel. LA is extremee in that regard but AF is also running up to that.

In both dramas the left out husband is healed back to happiness by his second wife.

First of all, these dramas are not similar. Like AT ALL!

Then why am I recommending this?!

Well, while I was watching YAMS, there came a scene (I don't remember which) with the main couple and I suddenly thought of a scene from SWWW. Did I mention that they're not similar at all? I was confused and google it, and voila! They apparently have the same director.

Both the dramas have great ost that fit the scenes perfectly, and the romance between the main couples are captured beautifully. SWWW is a very good series in itself. So you should definitely check it out, atleast for the beautiful direction if for nothing else!
