Both are romantic movies set in a high school that feature love triangles (or more complex shapes in the case of koiboku). Atashi No! is a bit more comedic but both take themselves seriously when needed. Both visually well done in terms of lighting/colour grading/mise en scene. Main male lead is played by a idol boy group member, and Koharu and Mitsuki are played by the same actress <3. Enjoyable acting in both. Highly recommend one if you like the other!
Xu Hong Dou is a woman who has worked in the hotel industry for most of her adult life. She is every inch the big-city woman, but her life hits a sudden bump in the road. Her best female friend has died, sending her life into a tailspin. Her work starts to suffer. Rather than continue to soldier on in the city, she decides to take a break from the fast-paced urban lifestyle in a remote village. She heads out to the village of Yun Miao, near Dali, in Yunnan Province – in search of peace and quiet.
She soon discovers that life in an agricultural village is not quite as idyllic as she had imagined – navigating fields full of animal droppings and mud isn’t something she is used to! But she soon finds a sort of equilibrium. She meets a group of fellow big-city types who have also decided to flee the big city in search of a more tranquil way of life. One of these individuals is named Xie Zhi Yao. Yun Miao is his hometown. He quit a well-paid job to start a tourism business that showcases Yun Miao. Xu Hong Dou soon realizes that she can put her own hotel industry knowledge to good use by helping him. But as they begin to work together, Cupid appears determined to bring them together! Could they find love in this quiet little village?

If you are really obsessed with New Life Begins then I'm sure that you will going to like Perfect Match. I just want to say- just go for it.
Both deal with decisions that center around a brother they take care of. Although the film Brother was more touching in my opinion.
Both are asadoras, of course. I feel like Dondo Hare was going for a similar modern-day, slice-of-life vibe as Sakura, but Sakura was more successful with it. Nevertheless, I think you are likely to like one if you like the other.
The foreign doctor Fan Wen Ning is living anonymously in Taiwan and working illegally. He has been forced to flee his homeland because of a medical dispute, and his sense of humanity has put him at odds with the law. Facing pressure from both criminals and the authorities, a female neurosurgeon reaches out to help him, and their lonely struggle brings their hearts close together.
They both have very similar premises. High School Frenemy focuses more on the relationships and Study Group has momre comedy but they're both fantastic action youth dramas!
Romcoms.
One night stand between strangers leads to pregnancy and engagement/marriage.
Both star actors who had previously worked together before- DK leads were in Beach Boys (1997) together, and FTLY leads were in Successful Story of a Bright Girl (2002) (and have actually done a total of 4 projects together since).

Goong (also known as Princess Hours) is set in a modern-day Korea where the monarchy still exists, with the lead being a crown prince, Lee Shin, who is forced into an arranged marriage with a commoner, Shin Chae-Kyoung.
It's a mix of romance, royal duties, and personal growth.
Similar themes: commoner female lead, 21st century prince male lead, alternate history in Korea

Both bring to light the question of what is a healthy & desirable marriage partner......................
Both are gangster movies with good cinematography, a fair amount of violence and ruthlessness. In both you have revenge, gun fights and difficult choices made by morally gray characters
I'd say there's more depth in the character of Night in Paradise, and

Both stories follow a small business owner who is somewhat jaded and disillusioned from a recent personal loss. They fall in love with a younger person who brings some hope and joy into their life, but that person is somehow secretly responsible for them potentially going out of business.
Both series are incredibly funny with a wonderful pairing of FL/ML. Both have great supporting casts.
My Uncanny Destiny is a very silly slapstick of a comedy.
Les Belles has a lot of great comedic moments and doesn't take itself too seriously but no slapstick.
In My Uncanny Destiny the FL has excellent comedic chops. She has a snarl/wink/click she does all the time that just cracks me up.
In Les Belles the FL is very funny but more subtly. She does have incredible dimples!
In My Uncanny Destiny the ML is Yan Zi Xian my favorite short drama sexy kissing star. He is so darn funny in this too as the hot and clueless male lead! The ML and FL together are chaotic.
In Les Belle the ML is more of the heroic type but still sort of clueless when it comes to the FL. And the 2 of them together are also chaotic and funny.
In My Uncanny Destiny the cast of characters are all over-the-top weird and funny too. This is definitely NOT a serious drama in any way. Angst free! There are lots of breaking the 4th wall bits and a few times you can tell that the actors broke character and just started laughing for real. It looks like they probably had a ton of fun making this series!
Les Belles has a great cast of characters including 2 other couples that have a great chemistry.
Both series don't take each other seriously, which makes them tons of tun!

The FL character changes into different persons (male, female, young, old) due to a certain condition she has, but the ML is able discern she is the same person even though she changes physically. He falls in love with the person that she is regardless the package she comes in.
