Suo Ai San Seng (2023)

Both are Republican Era Love love stories.

Similarities:
Smart and powerful ML
Smart and clever FL
Tons of Chemistry, lots of cute moments and kisses
Scheming SFL
Handsome SML
Lots of plotting

Differences- Fall in Love is a full length series
ML is a little mean in the first couple episodes, but NOTHING compared to the ML in Circle of Love.
It's a super entertaining historical romance. Highly recommended!

Another manhandling, steamy-kiss guilty pleasure drama with sizzling chemistry and a smoking hot leading man who totally steals the show. Weak plot, but still pretty fun.

- Both of the ML has powerful military position.
- Both FL's family, status was ruined.
- Both FL was forced by the ML to become his slave.
- Both ML tortured FL physically and emotionally.
- Both ML's fiance also bullied FL.
- Both ML and FL were lovers in past.
- Both couple slowly fall in love despite their hatred.

Same era and same actress. The vibe of the first episodes are similar. In both stories, the FML lives with a powerful military officer.

Both are Republican Era mini dramas with a love/hate relationship between the leads, one of whom is enacting revenge against the other for something they wrongfully believe they did.

When I saw the preview of Circle of Love, I automatically thought of Provoke. They are in the same time period and are both short series with hot male leads.

Both are Republican Era dramas in which the FL's family is destroyed by either the ML or his family.
