The female leads from both dramas lose their memories.
Both are costume/historical setting dramas/not modern setting.

In terms of plot these are not similar in any way, but I feel like they bring the same vibes and the chemistry is amazing in both. LBFAD is the only other fantasy C-drama I have watched and thoroughly loved so I highly recommend.
Can't think of any similarity; however, if you like good quality sci-fi with confusing and unique plot Kairos is #1.
Both dramas are essentially 2020s reimaginings of "old" romcom tropes from 2010s and both dramas execute use of these tropes well.
In both stories male CEO decides to enter a contract relationship with troublemaking female lead just to please his beloved grandfather (and essentially inherit the grandfathers company). The grandfather is in both dramas a goofy guy who knows more than he shows.
Both female leads are hardworking independent girls skilled in their own thing but sometimes helpless in male leads rich world of ritchy ritches.
Both drama have elements of slapstick comedy and animated way of expressing comedy.
The difference is in framing of the story - in TSOPMC, the female lead (joseon lady) time-travels from Joseon era into current time thus not being aware of modern customs; in ABP, the female lead is employee in ml's company and disguises as someone else to contract date the male lead.

Both of them have supernatural powers and uses them to conquer something. The protagonists has flashback of their past too.
Main adult female character is tough and can fight, and befriends a high schooler. This movie is a lot more on the lighter side, but the the main character has a similar vibe to the MC in Brave Citizen.

Law, investigation, and court focused
The lead character is seen as a person who has no mercy and very cold.
Another lead character is highly empathetic.
Most of the time their teamwork is on focus.
Very serious and dark vibes.

The premise of both the stories is similar, The mother coming to a new city to look for suitable husbands for her daughters... Both series belonging to comedy and family genre.
Historical bromance drama set in the same era. A lot of espionage and deception. Rich guy asked their childhood friend to stay in their mansion. Childhood friend is a spy. And it involves the Japanese occupation.
While Takane no Hana-san is not a gay romance, it is aslo a romance (and comedy). In Takane no Hana-san, Takamine Hana has a huge crush on Yowaki Tsuyoshi and acts in an eccentric way (as if fangirling over him). She hides this side of herself from Yowaki Tsuyoshi, much like Akafuji Yuichiro hides his from Aoyanagi Hajime in BL Drama no Shuen ni Narimashita: Crank Up Hen.
The two male leads in BL Drama no Shuen ni Narimashita: Crank Up Hen work together which provides us with plenty of funny interactions between the two as this secret is trying to remain as such. Same with Takane no Hana-san, though the female lead and her love interest are superior and subordinate instead of co-workers of an equal level.
Both dramas star Ogoe Yuki if anyone is interested in this actor. He has a more prominent role in Takane no Hana-san as the female lead's love interest.
