It's about girl who has a low self esteem because of her look and decides to change her appearance to get a boy she likes.

They are similar because female lead became beautiful but everything has some price. So if you like one then you might like the other.

An overweighted housewife makes a transformation (through weight-loss) as one of her steps to get revenge on her unfaithful husband.
Dramas about her taking revenge on him.

ML is an actor but not too popular anymore & broke so he rent a room in FL house.
FL is a nerdy geeky/otaku girl who like to imagine & day dreaming about romance with her favorite manga/comic book character. Remind me of Rainie Yang & Jiro Wang drama....& still 1 of my favorite drama....If you like this genre this is a must watch romance comedy drama....

Bullied at school because of her plain and dull appearance, Reina stops attending classes. However, a fateful encounter with makeup dramatically changes her life—after starting from zero, learning techniques, and putting in hard work, she undergoes a complete transformation into a goddess who turns heads wherever she goes! She planns to start a perfect new life at her new school! …Or so she thought. By sheer coincidence, her "top secret" is discovered by Kanda Shun—a cool, mysterious classmate with the top grades in their year. In exchange for keeping her secret, he forces her into an unexpected master-servant relationship!? As Reina grows closer to Shun, another classmate, Haruka Igarashi—who shares a certain "past" with Shun—also starts to take an interest in her.

The premise is quite similar. Get Karl tells the story of a man who wants to get back with his girlfriend so he has a make-over and becomes successful.

It made me think of the situation Ki Tae's mother had to go through and probably many other ahjummas around South Korea. While Sa Geum Ran is at the age where she can still change her life..there are many pitiful women around the world who lost their courage and live in pointless marriages because they're too afraid or have no other opportunities to start anew. With age come the problems..and it becomes harder to let go.

In both series the main lead is an eccentric immature man, both are romantic-comedies that involve a violent woman, both have the main female act all innocent when it comes to relationships.

Similar concepts. BOAB follows a woman in fulfilling her wish to become beautiful through plastic surgery.

Did you ever had that "ah, they're so twisted that they're perfect for each other" feeling while watching a couple?..if not, you'll have it watching both series.

In Rooftop Prince the evil woman is so good at playing her role that she convinces you to hate her with all your guts and pity her craziness, all at the same time. She gets you at the point where you love to hate her. Same goes with Gyo Chae Yeon, with the difference that she isn't as humane as Se Na.

In both dramas the male lead is played by Joo Sang Wook. Both deal about a female lead that learned form a disappointment that changed her life and works now together with the male lead to either get revenge, as it is the case in Birth of a Beauty, or to help the male lead, like it is the case in Touch. Both dramas have a very similar feeling and a similar relationship between the leads.
