FLs are older than MLs. MLs are the sons of wealthy families that run conglomerates. MLs are youthful, childish, fearless. FLs are mature, over thinking, smart.

I think it's worth it to watch both seasons especially in chronological order. You would get your first impressions during the 1st season and get the feel of this unique and thrilling variety show. Although, there are some pacing issues with the first few episodes of season 1, it improved during its run and had a thrilling and great 1st season! Season 2 showed a lot of improvements and became more exciting and entertaining.

Both feature female leads with enormous unnatural strenght. Both female leads still have their femininity while also being powerful. The guys in both have an initial fear of the womans strenght but grow to genuinely love them.

Although not completely similar, both of these dramas feature office settings, love triangles, exes coming back into the lead character's life.

Disguised FLs' identities. Suspicious, paranoid but powerful MLs. Both are kings of their territories. Silly and kind FLs. Both MLs have brothers who are ally/adversary. The brothers of both MLs are in love with FLs. Both MLs lose original wives to some hidden schemes.

I watched Meteor Garden way before I watched The Brightest Star in the Sky, but I couldn’t help but realize the relationships between ML and FL are similar. It starts with a love hate relationship, with the FL actually having feelings for another support character first. Both FL are hard working, while the ML is seen as a spoiled rich boy who is actually a really big soft boy who wants to achieve his own goals. Also, the ML main parent show their disapproval and have a supportive sister.

This really reminds me of Gintama. They even have a crossover in the anime. The story is different but the silliness is very much the same. Hashimoto Kanna starring in both and she did great.

Both stories deal with past trauma that continues to affect the main characters in their present stories.

Where with 'When My Love Blooms' it is about the choices people make and how those choices effect others, 'Just Between Lovers' deals with the unexpected, and how we move on from disaster, pain, and suffering.

Both dramas are slow, but they both offer a glimpse into how people deal with pain. Each episode is well thought out, and soul deep.

They have a similar vibe. They involve:
-action and thrills
-secret organizations
-revenge
-espionage and terrorism
-a hot male lead.

Both shows are based on a group of students solving mysteries and finding criminals. With a lighthearted but suspenseful plot line it makes you want to binge watch all the episodes in one sitting.

Both female leads have similar energy. Both are quite unlucky as well as get into embarassing situations.

+ same female lead
+ also great chemistry
+ FL also has a unique personality
+ Leads work together in the same company / store

Very short drama. LGBT+ romance. Quickie (can be considered movie-length). You don't need to think much. Just enjoy.

Same concept: strong female lead who is determined to be independent and do things her way and the somewhat rich male who chases/loves them. Fashion designer female lead and business man male lead.

I found the first few episodes to be remarkably similar!
They both feature desert scenes where one person saves the other.
Both MLs also hide their true identity and both FLs are princesses.
Both also have a marriage alliance and devoted MLs.
Definitely recommend if you're looking for a drama to fill the gap after Princess Jieyou or Goodbye my princess.
