Similar story line With Kazuya as main lead and star cast with Yamashita and Harikita Maki.
A touching story of making a girl who is unpopular and bullied to where everyone excepts her

Both of these dramas star Nakama Yukie as "Saki", and although the stories are quite different they give off a similar feeling. Nakama Yukie is brilliant, and her acting is compelling and terrifying at the same time. These two stories could be the same person, but they could also be not.

Both talk about the corruption and both of main leaders try to "save" the people from that corruption.
Both main men have a sad past story.
Both main woman want to show the true and are really correct.
In City Hunter they use body and brain to make justice and Pinocchio they use brain and just a bit of body.
They are simillares but even very different...

The 'ugly' and clueless girl has to deal with her piteous day to day while she tries to find her own dream. The female lead is also constantly compared to her more beautiful and successful sister/best friend.

Blatantly pimped throughout each episode of this first part of the Cupid Series. The lead female character, Toey's character, Hunsa, loves Sailor Moon (I loved it too---long live Sailor Mercury and Sailor Jupiter).

As we all know. Usagi was a bit slow on the uptake and Darien was a smart hottie, also known as, Tuxedo Mask. Tuxedo Mask was a jerk to Sailor Moon, Darien less so to Usagi. But I mean totally brutalized her with insults. Hard core bullying. So that fits right in to where the storyline was going as far as the relationship dynamic in this story at times.

Darien was very intelligent. I believe he had a scholarship for college, while Usagi was failing---I remember on one test she had a 10%. However, she has a good heart and she cares about people.

As I mentioned previously with Naoki's from Itazura na Kiss --- Usagi and Hunsa are massive crybabies.

The live action was a hit, although I hated it. But the anime's are brilliant.

Highly intelligent man who is extremely disciplined and unapproachable meets a girl who's his complete opposite. She is far from the brightest bulb---actually she's a broken bulb, highly emotional, but sweet and endearing. His IQ is genius level and he is able to memorize things on site. Lead female can't even speak Thai properly.

Much like in Itazura na Kiss the female character seems to embroil the lead male into a series of unfortunate events. All of which he needs to bail both of them out of. Perfect example---they need fresh water-- he ends up creating it out of salt water is similar to when Kotoko burnt the food and Naoki had to make dinner.

If you look at the picture; they made sure the image was reminiscent of ALL the Itazura na Kiss live-action posters ---Toey fits in perfectly, in physical features (if you look at the pic), with majority of the other girls who have revised the role of Kotoko Aihara.

All My Favorites listed in Order:
*Ariel Lin (Personal Fave-Everyone after copied her performance)
*Manaying Sushar (Brilliance--Just Wow!) <-Biggest Resemblance
<------ Toey is now here!
*Reina Visa
*Chuo Genie
*Miki Honoka

**I don't like the Kdrama version so it's not included in anything.

Thai Version - Kiss Me
Original Japanese version - Itazura na Kiss
Taiwanese - It Started With a Kiss (personal best)
Japanese Jdoramas - Itazura na Kiss - extended name (ex. Love in Tokyo
Japanese Movie - Mischievous Kiss
China - Say that You Love Me
etc...over and over and over remake.

Both dramas center around brilliant strategists who use their tactical skills to navigate the political game. The poster image of Si Ma Yi walking the tightrope above the upturned swords is a testament for both dramas. Both have excellent cast members including actress Liu Tao (Ode to Joy's Andy) who actually has main parts in both dramas!

Well, because of the subject of trot music in both of dramas. Joy is known that she sings trot music.

to be honest the humor is very similar, it makes you laugh and it has the hints of BL in it you know though more of them are bromance because the romantic relationship isn't admitted and only used to make us curious for what's next

Both dramas are set in the same time period and with a lot of the same actors. Barbara is an amazing lead actress in both and she just brings this sassy aura to her characters that make both dramas so interesting.

They gave me similar feelings. Although Mondai no.. is a lot more in depth with issues around social construct, they're both about women that aren't afraid to stand for their beliefs and move on with their lives.

The Story is quite similar, she causes his fiance's death, he wants to get revenge, he tries destroying her life, fell in love with her at the end.

Both are revenge themed dramas, Physical abuse, falling in love to the lady and struggling between revenge and love
