If you like the hong kong remake of my lovely liar, you definitely should watch the Korean original drama (imo the Korean ver is better).

Both books written by the same author, Zezeho and feature sapphic story / lesbian characters. Maitree (Stuck With Me) is the lawyer hired by Note.

It has a lower production value but a similar affair plot line. Especially when it comes to the relationship between the leads and the way they are clearly attracted to each other.

Both Flourished Peony and The Story of Pearl girl are set in the Tang Dynasty. Both are business drama one being flower cultivation business and the other being jewellery business. Both have strong female lead.

If u enjoy this and u like Concubine Queen dramas this is the drama for you. Yanxi palace is about a maid who rises to the position of a Queen she competes with a fearsome harem over the Kings Affections the main character is a strong independent badasss she is too clever not ur average female lead. The similarities in these dramas is about the harem the politics and otherwise are very much different

If you became a fan of Yang Zi from Flourished Peony, I definitely recommend you watch one of her famous shows, Ashes of Love. Of course, the main lead is Yang Zi with two other men. EVERYTHING is amazing in Ashes of Love. The acting, the plot, the scenery, the ost, etc. Everyone's acting in that show was absolutely phenomenal especially Yang Zis. If you're a fan of Yang Zi and her acting skills, go try Ashes of Love.

- Both FL have been married before
- Both FL are smart and intelligent, and overcome the (many) difficulties that come their way.
- Both ML are powerful and help the FL

*The Double is a little more focused on revenge, while Flourished Peony is more focused on personal and professional growth, but the dynamics between the leads are similar.

Both are thriller/action romances with a male lead who is absolutely head over heels for the female lead.

The humor mixed with serious cases, but mostly the comedy is similar! In both dramas there is a team that works together. First everyone disliked the new manager, afterwards they start to warm up to him. I recommend both of them if you are looking for a comedy drama!

Both are groundbreaking and iconic thai dramas produced by gmmtv that discuss and tackle a wide variety of topics. They also include action and thriller elements and lgbt characters.
