Thirty But Seventeen is currently the only drama I have ever felt that closely resembles Because This Is My First Life. There was even a instrumental cover of BTIMFL ost on one of the earlier episodes of Thirty But Seventeen that is absolutely delightful to hear :)

- both are incredibly comedic (though psychopath diary has some darker twists and turns)
- Office Life
- depicts the relationship between subordinates and managers/chairman (superiors) at the office
- romance is not a major element of the script
