Recommandations

Both are written by Lee Kyung Hee and both have outstanding script! In both female protagonist has her own recipe for living to be good, generous, kind and sacrificial. Both drama present real life.

In both the main theme is love and death and deep questions about life. They are deeply sad and touching dramas. Both are written by Lee Kyung Hee.

at the end of episode 10 in CLOY the main character from Secretly Greatly named Bang Dong Gyu is featured. If anyone wants more on his background then watch his own movie.

The ML is from another planet and has lived for thousands of years searching for their long lost love. The FL is a re-incarnation of their lover in modern times and is completely oblivious to this fact.

Many things are similar
-Accidentally reached another land
-ML is in army
-Pretend relationship
-Power struggle
-Great chemistry between FL and ML

The story is ALMOST identical. In both a child suddenly appears, the parent-child combo takes a journey somewhere while getting attached to one another. There is also an illness in both. I highly recommend watching ...the one you haven't yet seen?

Tho it's not romantic, but the deep relationship between the leads is portrayed especially beautiful and unique, a bit ill-mannered, but kindest at heart, the two main female leads from both drama have both gone through a lot and matured a lot. they both are very reticent and choose to use the very fewest words required to express themselves.

One thing about both drama I APPRECIATE SO MUCH and CHERISHED IT while watching are the long Silent Moments where all you're exposed to hear is the ambient sound and heavy breathing (silent gazes in Lipstick).


I totally recommend BOTH!
Even tho they aren't anything alike in term of character development and story. My mister is a family drama while Lipstick is friendship. but they both are totally a HUMAN DRAMA.

-FL may as well be Peng xiao ran
-both about royalty (is this a spoiler lol)
-bittersweet ending (or just bitter it depends)
-ML assumed 2 identities
-FL sacrifice
-arranged marriage

They are both from the same screenwriter (Lee Kyung Hee), maybe that's why you can see some similarities. They are both melodramas.

Both of the these dramas share well crafted scripts and well executed plots twists. Well integrated humor permeates thoughout both dramas. No useless episodes that drag or stupid secrets that go on forever. Enjoyable!

I highly recommend these two series!
> both relate to school
> there is bullying in both series
> emotionally strong main characters
> in the series, the main goal is to change people for the better
> both deal with the human psyche

****POSSIBLE SPOILERS****





Both female leads undergo plastic surgery in order to make a new beginning in their life and get out of an unhappy marriage and the person in charge/helping them for the transformation is the male lead and romance interest.

Both are about FL guiding a young man through show business and in the process fall in love as they discover more about themselves.

Both are about the movie industry, with a noona romance between a young boy and an older woman who shows him what kind of person he wants to become. My dear boy is more about movie directors, and NKNK is about actors and managers.
