She Was Pretty (2015)

Xia Le Di was an arrogant, self-absorbed socialite before her father's bankruptcy left her penniless. She believed that it happened because his competitor stole "Mona Lisa," a revolutionary makeup technology that his company developed. She vowed to get it back. She went undercover at JEALOUS, the rival company, working as an assistant to Chang Yu Jie, the heartless operation manager/lead makeup artist. While she focused her investigation on him, her romantic interest wandered to his charming half-brother Chang Shao Feng. But unbeknownst to her, the half-brother was the real culprit behind the theft.

Pretty similar office rom-com dramas. They have the overlapping "mean boss" and the awkward but lovable main female lead. Both very enjoyable!

With the same main actress, the two stories similarities are mainly in the main character, all bubly and a little idiotic but full of enthousiasm !
In bith of theses dramas, the woman add trouble finding a job before settling down thanks to a good offer and then thanks to theses jobs, meet a man.
Both of theses stories talk about what happen in the past that made the main characters who they are now and we can see relationship developping with the importance of the past behind them.
Even tough the relationships and how the are growing up on each other is different both dramas have the same feeling~

Unattractive & ugly FL a high school girl transform into a charming & pretty girl when she met ML a popular & handsome boy in her school. She ask him for a help to make her pretty but in one condition she can't fall in love with him. Based on a manga/comic book.

While the plots of She Was Pretty and Marriage, Not Dating are totally different, both shows give off a similar vibe. They're both rom-coms where the male lead is adamant about not falling for the female lead but slowly ends up doing so. The female leads in both shows are lower in status (than the male lead), and a little eccentric and over the top at times but, without meaning to, end up capturing the attention of the male leads. The chemistry between all of the characters in both shows is good as well.

The story is about a girl who think herself is not attractive when she's a child & growing up & she's struggling to become pretty. She was trying to her best to reach the heart of the guy she like. The story of a low self esteem girl until she become self confident.

1. Office Romance
2. Both ML have some sort of trauma
3. Cold/Aloof ML
4. Romantic comedy genre
5. Devoted ML to FL
6. ML (Park Seo Joon) of SWP actually acted in OG WWSK as the ML (Korean Version)
7. Both SML have some secret author element
And SWP is a really fun, light, hearted watch - really enjoyed it.

Both have female leads who have huge lies that started out of insecurity and miscommunication. They both have you urging to find out the end of the story.

ML is an actor but not too popular anymore & broke so he rent a room in FL house.
FL is a nerdy geeky/otaku girl who like to imagine & day dreaming about romance with her favorite manga/comic book character. Remind me of Rainie Yang & Jiro Wang drama....& still 1 of my favorite drama....If you like this genre this is a must watch romance comedy drama....

Similar story plot. The FL try to help him to build self confindent for the ML until he was success. It is a cute & light love story.

1) Pak Seo Joon is in both.
2) Pak Seo Joon's character's personality is a bit like Siwon's personality in She Was Pretty (hilarious and a childish..in a good way!)
3) In both of the stories, the main characters are working in a office for a magazine & there is a boss/employee romantic relationship going on.
4) Both are fast-paced and make you laugh a lot!

In short, if you like SWP, I think you'd like WR :)!

A guy who was a jerk turns into a loveable guy! ^_^
Fluffy Romance (Kinda)

*both main male character is the female character's boss

*both have a complicated love triangle

*both have comedy and light

*both female character despise main male character at first

*The two drama gave out similiar atmosphere

The female lead is similar just that for this she wasn't that pretty from the start..both female leads were really nice to the male lead which was also fat when young but turned super handsome and model like later...the guy then finds the girl and you know what happens...the girl had a makeover too...but then there is a slight twist in the end
