Similarities:
- Both stories have a very similar feel to them, involving family, friendship and revenge.
- Both MLs fathers left a big impression and set an example to ML, and they were both wronged by the people in power. But in Rebel ML's father is more present during the story.
- Both dramas have a theme of brotherhood, brothers in arms who fight for ML and are ride or die for him.
- Both MLs have very strong loving relationships with their biological siblings.
- Both dramas include a person the ML deeply cares about that sides with the opposing team. But in My Country this is more of a main issue with the 2ML while in Rebel this is more a side thing with 2FL.
- Both include an evil parental figure that despises the ML and his family and are responsible for a lot of MLs' horrible situation.
- Both stories include a conflicted gray character that has inner struggle whether to join ML's cause or not. But in My Country this character is the 2ML, Sun Ho and in Rebel this character is a side character, Mori. In some ways Sun Ho is a what if Mori was a lead instead of a side character? Also Sun Ho has a deep complicated loving friendship with ML whereas Mori's relationship with ML revolves around mututal respect and understanding of their respective situations.
Main Differences:
- Plot.
- Struggling bromance. In My Country the main driving force of the story is the broken bromance between Hwi and Sun Ho. The main driving bromance in Rebel almost never wavers.
-My Country is more tragic, The Rebel still has its fair share of tragic elements but it's way lighter.
- My Country's characters live more in the gray area. You can see they're more complicated and suffer through their decisions to take the less terrible option. In Rebel things are more straightforward (black and white). While characters are flawed and well written, you can always tell who is on the right side and who is on the wrong side.

Both gives similar mystery vibes with misty environment, great actors and suspenseful story line. One must find the truth about death of loved ones.
The synopsis is literally same as the kdrama "A Gentleman's Dignity". Where there are 4 friends. FL likes ML leads friend. Another friend falls in love with friend's sister in that too and not to forget ML helps FL in crisis situations.
Both stories focus around women seeking revenge for crimes committed against them in the past. Also, Yoo Sun is in both of them, though her role is more major in Eve. Eve has more romance and the main character is keeping more secrets, while Queen of Masks is a more a story about a tangled friend group where everyone has their own lies and love stories going on but is not exactly romantic.
Both dramas have a woman out to get her daughter back from her shady ex, and teaming up with women that were originally her enemy in order to do so. Additionally, they both just have a lot of morally gray/complicated female characters. Queen of Masks is darker than Mine, while Mine has a more polished veneer and perhaps a more optimistic outlook overall.
