If you want to remember the beginning of Seventeen's career and debut, watch this show ass well. Aired on the same TV station, MBC and the recent documentary they showed some footage from here.

Yeh they are similar bcos Botha are bl stories bt in word of honor due to chinas sensorship policy they changed the bl story to bromance bt we can actualy get every sence of romance in their eyes and about this drama they are doing a great job??? finally got to see a an actual bl in this historical Chinese dress ??? am overwhelmed in joy you know thatt ?

Both have FLs who are starting their own businesses and the shows follow their struggles along with a growing romance. FLs in both are hard working and inspired.

* Soul of a woman is transferred into a male body
* The shows pay attention to main female characters feelings about having different body and to feeling of their romantic partners about it
* Both are romantic comedies with a bit of drama

If you want to see Perth in a teenaged BL role that feels more authentic and less polished, then give his og series a try. His acting has definitely improved since 2018, but the lack of challenge that DR's script provided for both Perth and Chimon means that their performances feel very 'acty' if that makes sense? They're hyperaware of the camera and it shows. I can't recommend Love By Chance for anything else, but Perth and Saint have equivalently good chemi and a more interesting relationship. Just ignore the side couples.

Let have my time to explain why I choose Secret Garden flr the recommendation… For sure most of you might thought of ‘The Shipper’, ‘KinnPorsche’, ‘Only Friends’, and some other series with similar vibes but let’s try to widen the perspective…
All of the ‘Stuntman concept’ and soul ‘traveling’… begins with Secret Garden (at least for me yes…)… We have both the main lead as a stuntman and the partner as this ‘freakin’ rich dude… one exchange soul and here we have Joe’s soul to enter another ‘Joe’… Both are probably pretty much the same till here… we know that the who’s fallin first and who loves even deeper…

If you need a straight drama with similar theme I might recommend this one^^

Both have strong female characters. In both dramas the female lead are also mothers who endure a lot and fight for the sake of their child.

The grandmother in both are similar: Both on the father's side, bullying of the female lead and favouring the grandson.

Even if this series is about parallel universes where he has traveled to a different time to this universe, even though Absolute Zero is a straight time travel story the vibes between Absolute Zero and Memory in the Letter in almost the same.

In both dramas, the main similarity is the transformation of the FLs.
So, the FL in My ID is Gangnam Beauty gets a plastic surgery where as in True Beauty, she doesn't. Both dramas have a Love Triangle..

*SPOILER*
Another similarity is that the FL's best friend in both dramas turn into their enemy causing problems.
Well, another one is just that - even though, knowing the FL's actual face in Gangnam Beauty, he continues to like her and so as in True Beauty, well, similar but she does actually continues with her face without plastic surgery.

IMO, I prefer True Beauty...

Slice of life, an unlikely match and a whole lot of fluff! Perfect to binge and get immersed in the vast enviroments and beauitful cinematography
