There are nine actors of Joy of Life that are also in My Heroic Husband, if you want to watch a similar cast.
Both are modern dramas about entrepreneurs working together to expand their online clothing businesses. Johnny Huang stars in both. Love Designer has an early start to romance that quickly gets to the passionate stages with strong chemistry and maturity between the lead characters.
These two series dealt with the coming-of-age of the main characters with an excellent script and cinematography. Aside from this, both series also show great production quality aside from the natural chemistry of the leads.
Just like in Song of Glory...The two leads are always helping each other with a case most if not all of which are related to the palace in some way.
It always gives the same vibes as Song of Glory just a little lighter than the former but still contains a lot of mysteries and intrigue with the leads inadvertently solving them.
Also, they too end up married as well due to circumstances.

the hero in both series act like a traitor and both stories are about fighting agains Japanese but with different background (Korean and Chinese).
Both Search: WWW and Birthcare Center are comedies and female centered dramas from TvN. Both have different story but I believe that you'll love Search: WWW if you liked Birtcare Center.
Be careful! It contains spoilers
In both dramas:
(main similarities)
- FL hides her identity by pretending to be a boy
- ML quickly realizes FL is a girl (in AMA in 5 Episode, in MUG in 3 Episode). He helps her hide her secret without telling her he already knows she is a girl. He is her secret knight
- FL and ML go to university/academy together, they have to train hard to stay there. They also live together in the dorm as roomates
- It's from hate - to friendship - to love - kind of story
- ML is rich and well-known and incredibly handsome (my personal opinion)
- ML is very persistent to get FL. He doesn't care what other people will think about him being in a relationship with another "man" (it's even more impressive in AMA - the action of the drama takes place in the early of XX century in military academy)
- ML is cute, smart, cunning, cheeky, confident, but when he falls in love he would do anything for FL. His personality, however, doesn't change, even at the end - he is still adorable, he shows his love, but he doesn't become "a henpecked man" :)
- FL has a female friend whom she knew before the drama started
- FL and ML are friends. ML confesses/realizes his feelings first
- Besides ML another FL's male friend discovers her secret and falls in love with her (in AMA I would say it is even love triangle)
- ML has a female admirer, who wants to be with him
- ML quickly falls for FL but teases her a lot. He is jealous of other men
- There is a group of friends to which FL and ML belong
- ML's parent does not consent to his relationship (in MUG later his mother approves)
- Most characters find out about FL's identity at the end - in AMA in Episode 44, in MUG in Episode 23
- Similar shots/scenes appear: sit-ups scene, washing ML's stuff, dancing scene, rescue scene, winter scenery
- The chemistry between the main couple is great
- Besides main couple there are many other interesting characters
- FL and ML have their happy end :)
(main differences)
- AMA is much longer - 48 Episodes, MUG - 24 Episodes
- The topic in MUG is quite light. AMA is about the war (mostly second part), so it's heavier. In AMA there are some deaths, so I remember I cried a bit
- There are more kisses in MUG (mostly peck kisses but still), whereas in AMA you have to search it on youtube to see deleted scenes containing peck kisses
- In MUG there are lots of absurd accidents (typical for most cdramas)
- If you want to see MOSTLY cute romance - AMA is not for you, while MUG is perfect :)
- In AMA ML learns that FL is a woman because he sees her as a woman, in MUG due to accident
- In AMA ML helps FL a lot more than ML in MUG, he is her protector almost from the beginning, and she doesn't even know about some things he does for her
- In AMA FL and ML become a couple in (probably, it's not clear) Episode 41, in MUG in Episode 22. In AMA FL realizes her feelings really late, in MUG much earlier
- In AMA ML confesses his feelings in Episode 31, in MUG in Episode 20, but for us - viewers - it is clear MLs falls for FLs almost at the beginning
- In AMA FL finds out that ML knows about her identity in Episode 14, in MUG really late - bacause in Episode 20
- Genre: AMA is comedy/romance/action/historical drama (action takes place in the XX century), MUG - comedy/romance drama (action takes place nowadays)
Overall, I enjoyed both. However, MUG is more to watch for fun, for lazy Saturday and Sunday, while AMA is more, I would say, ambitious, demanding. It depends what you prefer to see :)
My scores:
AMA 9/10
MUG 8,5/10
Wow, that was long. I hope it'll be helpful for somebody :)

Something About 1%, is more of a "contract engagement" and not a "contract marriage" like Love In Time.
Something About 1% has the same premise though, the partners falling in love while in a "fake" relationship like Love In Time. Same explosive chemistry. Same hot kisses. You gotta watch them both to believe it.

A sweet love story with a boss and employee. The ML falls in love with the FL only and rejects other women. With the FL, he is warm, happy, and amused whereas with the others he is cold and unapproachable. The FL is a sweet and naive girl who is lost in thinking and imagining things. The ML also chases after the FL.
If you are interested in stories of powerful and protective moms, then Angry Mom might be a nice one to watch after Mother, although Angry Mom definitely has more obvious elements of romance, and focuses on different issues such as bullying, but plotlines related emotional abuse from parents also arise
Both - About business, strong female lead, romance, girl power, amazing leads
They both are similar bc they take down the bad guys they about are rly good.

They are totally different plots but have a supernatural powers in both.
Both have a crimes and action themes and love triangle.
Strong women do bong soon is more comedic, the female inherited from her mother a superpower strength.
I hear your voice is more serious, the male lead began to be able to read minds after his father was killed.

The main cast in both consists of girls from mnl48 and you can finsd both subbed on the mnl48 youtube channel. They also have a friendship, unrequited love and moving on element and are very short and easy to watch. The stories itself arent exactly similar though and 2020 Vision is alot better just objectively.
Both are comedic short movies by the same director for the same campaign. Both follow high school girls who have a crush on a guy called Sarawut. Theyre really funny and enjoyable.
Both are coming-of-age stories and deal with first love and the journey of discovering yourself and your own desires. If you like shows which focus on friendship, this might be a good one. In Araburu Kisetsu no Otomedomo yo the characters are of course younger but I think it actually touches some really interesting topics in an unexpected way.
