Both dramas concerned with work culture, disconnection and loneliness inherent in modern society, money and relationships. Slice of life/personal growth/relationship dramas that are built around conversations with friends/family/strangers over food and drink that feel uncomfortable, perhaps far too vulnerable. Thinking through the superficiality of modern life.

- Both dramas show widowed female leads who are also struggling single mothers
- Both the female leads are chased by handsome, rich male leads
- Both dramas have opposition from the male lead's family
- I particularly liked how both dramas didn't have a second lead and there was no extra competition for the female leads heart XD

Same plot. Instead of Freshy Boys you have the Moons and both have lovers who went to high school together. One confesses then one moves away and we have no idea what happens and then they meet in university again seeming not to remember each other.

The couple time travel to their university days while they both have regrets about their choices in the present day.

- Both shows has strong manipulating female lead
- Both about Harem
- Both about female lead raising to power from Lowest rank,

Empress Ki has more action and FL is physically strong.

Similar dynamic between the two main leads.
Prosecutors vs. Lawyers
Both strong female leads
Both with main villain leading on from the shadows as a higher-up
Enemies to "lovers," though I hesitate to use lovers. Slight romance, but its more of a bond beyond words. Definitely respect, or unspoken romance at least.
High action, high stakes. Love the satisfaction from both sides winning their respective cases.
