Recommendations

Story lines are completely different, but these two dramas just give you the warmest feeling upon finishing them. They both take you on an emotional journey and you can really get to know the characters.

Love with flaws also has a cute LGTBQ+ couple. It also deals with homosexuality with less of a conservative taboo response. One of the brothers is gay and runs a gay bar and no one really blinks an eye. He doesn't give a sh*t what anyone else thinks.

While Doctor John is more serious, I think these two dramas have a similar tone. The romance is similar, and both are sweet and heartwarming dramas about the medical world.

Both are short BL shows with main character(s) associated with gangsters. While red balloon differs in that the main characters are teens for most of the story, and it’s less intense than long time no see, both have very heartwarming and convincing relationships between the main characters, and interesting side characters.

2gether is the prequel of Still 2gether. It tells the beginning of Tine and Wat story from the time Tine asked Sarawat to be his fake-boyfriend until the moment they truly become a real couple.

-In Born Again, the leads become reborn and don't remember their previous lives until later in the show. In Goodbye My Princess, the leads meet but then lose their memories of each other, meet again, and then regain those memories towards the end of the show.
-Due to memory loss/being reborn, the female lead forgets that she hates the male lead (for very justifiable reasons)
-a semi-evil male lead who makes decisions against the wishes of the female lead that end up getting her hurt (physically and/or emotionally). Kinda obsessed with revenge on their family. In Born Again the male lead is also a major creep and (unfortunately) sometimes his actions are portrayed as romantic. But both do majorly bad things that are (or at least, should be) pretty unforgivable.

For the record, I think Goodbye My Princess is way better, but it is also quite different in terms of genre and tone. The other recommendations listed are more similar to Born Again.

Both involving death & supernatural,
with message about how little time we have and that we should spend our time meaningfully and not take life for granted.

49 Days is one big 20 episode story arc with 1 main lead about to maybe die,
while Loss.Time.Life is more easily and quicker to watch stand-alone episodes/anthology series with 1 new person dying each episode, providing beautiful story even if you just watch 1 episode. (Episodes can be watched in whathever order since each episode is 1 separate story with different characters in each episode.)

Two comedies about women who raised their social position and became politicians.

In "The First amendement of Korea", Koh Eun-bi is a prostitute who wants to be a congresswoman in a South Korea Election.

- great action drama with some romance (Healer has more)
- MtM has more funny moments
- similar feelings
- handsome mail leads :-)

A new born girl is placed in a coin operated locker in the subway station. The girl is raised by a mother who is the boss for a loan shark group.

- both the female leads want children since they know their close before they can’t anymore
- both also show the growth between the relationships they make along their journey to become a mother

Both series have characters who are not only handsome but also like to play mobile games. Moreover, Gameboys and TGW have female characters who are good bestfriends to the male leads.

Both consist of four different stories with different characters that arent actually connected but all have one thing in common (in Persona the main characters are all portrayed by IU and in The Table all the stories happen at the same cafe/same table). Also the person who directed and screenwrote The Table also directed and screenwrote one of the stories in Persona.

It’s 1962, and paranoia permeates Greenwood High School. The KMT government is on high alert for anyone who might challenge their rule. Freedom of speech doesn’t exist; surveillance and censorship run rampant.

From the absurd office politics to the hilarious bromance rivalry, these 2 dramas offer great comic relief in the time of need and insightful life lessons when you least expect.

Park Hae Jin (Yeol Chan) and Nam Goong Min (Sung Ryong) play the questionable protagonists that you find shady yet can't help vouching for.

Kim Eung Soo (Man SiK) and Lee Junho (Seo Yool) are your former-villain-now-besties, desperately searching for a second chance at love... oops... bromance.

If you ask for comedy, here it is. If you ask for b-romance, what are you waiting for? If you ask for chemistry, these will teach you the whole periodic table. If you want all of these in one, then quickly dive in.
