Recommendations

-both lgbt focused movies that also shed light on some of the discrimination and prejudices they have to deal with
-one of the main characters is a child
-theyre both sad and emotional, id put some tissues next to me if i were you
-the endings are very similar

Both were filmed by the same director
Both are cute stories (tharntype is more on the rough side though)
Lovely writer gives my tharn type vibes......

I saw both series back-to-back and I'm surprised they aren't recommended more often. Both series not only has the female lead cross-dressing as a male but it also beautifully portrays the complicated thoughts a straight guy goes through when he develops feelings for what he assumes is another guy. (Serious Kudos to the acting and direction in both series)!

[Personally for me, there's something oddly satisfying about what was always forbidden until 10 years ago was actually a common feeling that people experienced for the same sex]

Same main character actress (Seven Tang).
Under the power much much better whereby the male lead aint having multiple wives and concubines and they dont portrait the internal harem fights.

Male main character has powerful position in the imperials court.
Sword and brocade Female lead - soft outside, strong personality in the side.
Girl like me Female lead - hardcore strong personality inside and outside.

They both have a kind of same vibe to them but Full House is much light hearted and more comedy in it.
Its a remake of full house k-drama but is much better.

They have a very similar vibe but full house is much light hearted.
Just a suggestion :- If you watch Full house just hang in their for first few episodes... it will get more engaging.

From the synopsis the two dramas seem similar: the FL loses her boyfriend to a rich girl. Then she meets the rich girl's brother/cousin and he falls in love with her and court her. Lub Luang Jai is okay but there is not much passion between the leads.

Similar premise - MLs in both productions get transported back in time but ML in Don't Touch me, Your Majesty keeps his male body.

this drama has like 1/10th the viewership count to that of Goblin's, but something i consider far superior in story.

honestly, i think people who liked Goblin so much should watch this. truly an amazing drama. no fantasy though, and heavy palace politics that overrides romance. but i feel like this is THE drama that earnestly rewrites the rule for a good, heart-wrenching bromance for me, cry me a fckin river.

truly, could not recommend enough.

rating: 10/10.

it's also based on a true story and mentioned the gwangju uprising and it's also tragic . you should defienetly watch it it's about the south korean movement for democracy and freedom in the point of view of college students

both are really crazy makjangs with crazy plot, adults, rich people and stuff happening around them

Mature protagonists (adults)
Infidelity of partners
Parents behaviour affects their childrens
Greed for connections to social elite, power and money

Just in sense of having related legal cases, male genius lawyer and female assistant. Wacko at Law is obviously better.

About three friends and their (romance) lives.
I Need Romance more adult compared to How to be Thirty but both enjoyable comedies.
