Gender Bending because of family obligations and responsibilities.

Both dramas are similar in reversed kind of way; in Down with love female lead is pretending to be gay and in Personal taste male lead is pretending to be gay. Both dramas have situation where lead is in desperate need of job/housing and that's why they end up pretending being gay because they at first thought they don't like the other lead and it would be totally harmless. Due to this many funny situations occur and leads end up falling in love even though the other lead is still assuming her/his crush is gay.

Both of them have a similar feel. D-Day is a medical drama based on a natural disaster but there's an entire storyline about the firefighters. Love 911 has more comedy but also has its fair share of drama. In both the female lead is a doctors. In D-Day the male lead is a doctor whereas in Love 911 he's a firefighter. Both are satisfying with the romance.

ie uru onna reminds me so much of kaseifu mita because of the demeanor of the main character.
In both stories the women are strong, independent, able to move others hearts, straight faced, and can do anything. Both have mysterious pasts and push others to be better.

Both being series dealing with cold cases and both dramas have the same flavor in the cinematography and the OSTs.

Same female lead. the 'memory loss' thing instead on the female its on the male this time. the going back and forth with 2 guys and the guy who was lost his memory was presumed dead and ofc not. these 2 dramas have quite alot of similarites, stairway to heaven was more of a tearjerker but i cried a hell load watching winter sonata as well...
and u'll never forget ur 1st love~

Both are Chinese BL (Boys Love) themed movies. in both cases the story happens in an ancient setting.

Same Writers.
Same Female lead.
Really Comedic, it makes you laugh so much trust me.
And there are both relatively good dramas.

This movie incorporates similar elements- romance, drama, life, and music.

Similar to Kodoku no Gurume, this drama centralizes around food with a "slice of life."
