Similarities
- big families (4 children - 1 oldest son and 3 daughters)
- conflicts of in-laws and marriage life
- mothers are frenemies
- fathers have rough and secret pasts
- ups and downs of marriages (featuring break-ups and reconciliation)
- both fathers I believe have chicken shops
- brother in-laws (established ones) are very cute
- clingy mother in-laws
- battles against miscarriages
Differences
Once Again focuses on love between parents and married couples, specifically married couples, and its ups and downs whereas My Father is Strange seems to focus on the love of parents and the lengths they go through. I also think that Once Again tackles thing quite heartedly and focuses on starting all over again (hence the title) where as My Father is Strange may seem light but in relation to its title, there is a bigger, and deeper plot from the everyday struggles of the family.
Personal opinion:
I personally found myself particularly interested in the third children's lives. Both families' chemistry are insanely amazing but there seems to be more sibling moments on My Father is Strange as I feel like Once Again focuses heavily on married life. Both dramas are very slice-of-life and comedic and I wasn't able to stop watching them once I started.

Have a lot of similarity, mainly in deceiving the bad guys. the difference is that Confidence Man is episodic while Shichinin no Hisho have a main storyline. Nana Ri no Hisho is also a more serious show,

At first one may think that the common ground with these family dramas are just that their stories are child-centered with Shin and Akiko doing the best for Kotaro and Miyuki respectively. If you like Akiko's personality, you probably would like also Kotaro's and vice versa. Both have comedy elements and gives off that warm feeling you often get with good jdramas.
In 3 Will be Free, Tay Tawan plays the son of a mafia boss, much like Gun in Golden Blood. Gun and Tay share a lot of characteristics, they both want OUT of the mafia business and want to just live their lives. Both get targeted by OTHER mafia bosses. In 3 Will Be Free and Golden Blood, both have a second Male lead who is the protective type (Joss in 3 Will be Free and Boat in Golden blood). Both have LGBTQ+ characters. 3 Will Be Free is definitely the Rated R version of Golden Blood.
