These both bring out all the feels, my top two all time favorite dramas. They both feel incredibly nostalgic and transport you fully into another life. I felt like I was falling in love, laughing, hanging out alonside them.

The FL grows up in a privileged background, ML grows up without his parents.
- FL's mom does not like the ML for a mistake that the ML made as a child.
ML was both tall and handsome.
FL was cute and charming.

Both dramas are about a seemingly normal man who is thrust into a paranormal world.
Both dramas have a mad sense of humour and crazy characters.
Both dramas have a tough FL who teaches the ML how to be a tough man.

First episode of RCAQF reminded of Louyang. It has many similarities than one could imagine. Just check it out if you really like this drama.

Well, someone already recommended season 1 but he/she didn't recommended this one.
Both seasons are fantastic

- Both dramas have 3 MLs and one is a child (teenager in Tengu's Kitchen), one is his older brother and the last one is an office worker how comes to meet them every weekend
- Both dramas are mostly set in the countyside
- Both dramas are focused on cooking and eating together
- In both dramas the two older MLs help the child/teen to grow more indipendent.

There's not much in common between these two shows but I will say there is one key detail that makes them similar...

In Secret Garden,
the second lead, Choi Woo Young (also known as 'OSKA'), has a difficult relationship with the second female lead, Yoon Seul, after she overhears him dismissively telling a mutual friend—who happens to be interested in her—that she was just a fling and meant nothing significant. This deeply upset her, prompting her to break up with him and take a long trip to work on herself. Upon her return, she sought revenge by making herself an unavoidable presence in his life, serving as a constant reminder that he wasn’t the only one affected by their breakup. Her actions eventually drove him to make reckless decisions.

In When the Phone Rings,
the leads Baek Sa Eon and Hong Hui Ju are two married strangers, who happen to be put in a hostage situation over the phone. Baek Sa Eon response leaves Hong Hui Ju devastated and disappointed. Right then and there she decides to seek an opportunity for revenge. She impersonates her kidnapper by calling him through the phone the kidnapper used. She seeks an opportunity to make him miserable for not caring enough for her on the day of the kidnapping. While seeking freedom from her marriage she is given the chance to speak out her bottled-up feelings.

These stories are not the case of a usual misunderstanding in dramas but a case of miscommunication of feelings.

It has the exact same dynamic the angry one falling in love later on but being too dramatic to open up about it

Both FLs had a past connection to the ML when he was a child, she then dies and is reborn. Years later the FLs reunite with the ML who is now an adult and have never forgotten her, as well as the family they left behind in their past life.

Both are love stories between a police officer and a Doctor. They both meet during an accident involving dismantling a bomb. the only difference is the couple in Love Song in Winter were once lovers

Very similar with the palace and political conflicts. Both the male and female lead characters are or become righteous and influential with strong moral compasses. Both female leads may seem weak at first but they quickly change and become strong, quick thinking, decisive, and upright women. Both men show loyalty and bravery.

If you enjoy a well constructed plot and characters you can really root for; not just the leads but also many of the people surrounding them; then you will love both these series.

Found family trope in both
Small village
Introverted male leads
Struggling female leads
Overcoming challenges
Female leads finding themselves
Beautiful side character stories
