Both dramas have quite the dark theme and are slow paced with emphasis on getting to know the characters, their life and emotions rather than action.
Both husbands keep secrets from their wives. "The World of the Married" focuses on the female leads character and how she deals after finding out the truth.

Sakuraba Haruma's childhood friend Inukai Shuji was a cut above him in every way imaginable, living out the glamorous life bestowed upon him. Haruma, an unassuming salaryman, has lived his every day clutching onto his inferiority complex, existing only in Shuji's shadow. One day, Haruma coincidentally meets Shuji's wife, Inukai Reika, who Haruma has always secretly admired since his high school days. With feelings of envy, jealousy, and more, a "secret" is born from Haruma's repetitive days.
Both are affair dramas except for this main reason: THE CHARACTERS ARE TOTAL OPPOSITE. The more you watch them, the more you understand them, the more you reflect about life. Actually, it is not a cheating drama for me. Rather a healing romance drama about four people entangled in a dangerous web just to show people that LIFE IS THIS SWEET. After watching, it will make you ask yourself, "How are you, my sanity? Stop messing my thoughts about life and love." My all-time favorite Korean Drama. No one beat it yet.
Both are about a forbidden love story between a man and a married woman. Both have r rated scenes & recommended if you like secret love affairs type of drama/movie.
