Two age gap romances build upon lies and where the younger person has a terminal illness. In The Forbidden Flower the girl is younger, in Gisou Furin the guy. Gisou Furin is more comedic.
Both are about two people who have little to lose and get caught in something bad. The guy appears as a thug and the girl as arrogant.
Two short dramas about a male lead that has attempted suicide multiple times, but who keeps failing. The dramas have a good balance of seriousness and humour, making it a not too heavy but still emotional watch.
Both shows are about a love square, where the leads date someone else even though they are in love with each other. If you love melodramatic trainwrecks, these are the shows for you!
Both shows are about a complicated love story that includes betrayal. Both dramas depend on dialogues and indirect portrayals of love, such as stares and offering help, to progress the story.
In both shows the female lead is in a secret relationship with a player. The player gets jealous once the fl starts hanging out with another guy.
Both shows have a protagonist that is done with life (one more than the other) end up stuck with an extrovert and chaotic person. The stories and direction aren't really similar, but the dark humour and atmosphere in Definitely Not Today reminded me a lot of I Picked Up A Star From The Road.
In both movies the leads deal with a difficult past and are feeling lost together. Unlike Better Days, No Call No Life doesn't involve bullying. In both movies they are on the run.
Both are depressing romances where the female lead has a connection with the past. In both movies there is murder during childhood
Both shows deal with trying to change someone's fate and have a supporting character trying to murder the lead.
Both historical dramas with a similar romance dynamic and characters involved. Both are a good watch if you enjoy the more indirect and rather angsty type of romances.
Two fantasy shows with a very assertive and (man-)crazy female lead. They're not the types to sulk or shy away when dealing with an evil second female lead. Instead they know how to stand up for themselves. The male leads are a bit different in the shows tho, but both are very likeable and not (unnecessarily) mean.
