Both take place in the late 1980s and both explore the romance between people who start off as friends. Back to 1989 includes time travel though and is a Taiwanese drama, not a Korean one.

In both the doctors have a complicated childhood. Their childhood influence in their medical careers and personal life.

PS:the surgeries and medical cases are amazing

Whilst watching this show, RH Plus kept coming to mind. The shows seem to have the same feel. Both shows contain supernatural elements but in RH Plus, there's vampires :D

Both dramas have these funny skits at the end/begging of each episode. Delightful girl Choon Hyang has historical skits while the main story is set in modern time and King is not easy has modern skits while having a historical setting for the main story.

the drama is similar in that the actress with the cop is full of baits

both are like a man who plays bodyguard, despite the resistance that falls in love with the main heroine

Both about past lives and how that affected the characters' current lives.

In both dramas, the leads remember their past.

Both have supernatural elements outside of the past life/future life trope.

Both have wonderful OSTs. CT is more artfully done while Legend is more quirky and fun.

Same writer and main lead, while the plots are completely different, they both have similar atmosphere..one sided crush, female lead getting bullied at work, gentle male lead..etc.

Both are mysteries, both female leads have a strong personality and both dramas are rom coms. The chemistry of the main characters is also brilliant.

Same writer, another well written family drama with main lead as "Cinderella/Candy" hard working character with Makjang elements.

They are not exactly the same, but they have similiar vibes.

They are both about the life of young persons, about their hardships and ways to find/achieve their dreams.
While Age of Youth has many different characters with different problems, Fight for my Way mostly surrounds around the main characters.


Both are really enjoyable "youth" dramas!

Both shows have main characters who hate each other but fall in love after they switch bodies. Proud of Love is a lot more quirky than Leh Lub Salub Rarng.

If you're looking for a short two episode drama with the actors of Tae Woon, Soo Ji, and Hee Chan, watch this! It's a super sweet story of a man who literally froze for 37 years and is now in a search for his first love. Super sweet and light!

These two series have lot of parallels.
Gender-bender, straight guy falls for a girl he thinks is a guy, coffee, sworn-brothers, love triangle.

Both dramas involve doctors treating the patients on the sea whereas one is in the korean style and the other in the japanese style.
