Although both movies have drastically different story lines, they both offer an interesting social commentary on gender in a patriarchal Korean society. Both movies have a (slight) feminist undertone as they zoom in on the female experience of daily life and the struggles that come with it. The theme of mental health functions as a red thread in both stories.
The First Half of My Life and A Wife's Credentials are both dramas with mature couples (mid-30s) involving infidelity / betrayal and divorce. In each series, the 'plot' is about how the main characters deal with the break-down in their relationships and how it affects their lives and their children's lives. The background story of AWC exposes the high pressure on mothers/wives of getting their children into first-rate schools, whereas TFHOML shows the impact on relationships of long-hours spent in a high-pressure business environment (management consultancy). Both series are really well acted and produced.

The Female Lead in Love and Redemption has a “Glass” Heart which she cannot feel emotions (can’t love or cry) whereas the Male Lead in Miss Crow with Mr Lizard has a Mechanical Heart which he is unable to feel strong emotions (if not he will increase in heart rate and release electricity from touch or even serious, may lead to his death). Watch to see how both fall in love respectively.

While Collectors is a movie that centers around a heist (rather than swindling per se) it is similar to The Swindlers in the sense that it is about a group of criminals who strive for a common goal: to get rich (and take revenge). This is your typical action-packed (yet fun) watch.
The time travel and forbidden love.....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
