Similar story of a ghost 'borrowing' a person's body. Both the stories have contrasting characters of ghost and the possessed person. If you're looking for comedy, underdog stories, these are for you. While OMG is surrounding a plot around restaurateur, GD surrounds a plot around a hospital. Both Park Bo Young and Kim Beom are worth watching in their roles.
At first those two storylines doesn't seem very much alike, however if you take a look they are pretty similar:
Extremely shy girl gets some kind of help from an entity, who possess their body thus changing their personality and actions completely. However, in Dear Prince it's actually a guy who's the ghost and the story is based on the entertainment industry.

Both series are food centric rom-coms with a similar feel. Whilst Lets Eat is more about the delicious food porn Oh My Ghost is set in a restaurant so there is always food around.
Each series features an unknown food blogger element.
Both of these series also include mystery and darker storylines alongside a cute romance.

These dramas are very different from one another. Country of origin, overall plot, length, feel, etc...all different. But I couldn't help but think of Oh My Ghost when watching Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo.
Both dramas have a character that's stuck in present day when they're not supposed to be there, whether it's because they died and haven't passed into the afterlife yet or because they're from the future.
I won't go into more detail than that, as it gets too spoiler-y, but I definitely saw parallels between Shohei and Shin Sun Ae.

Ichijo Ryoei is the son of the Ichijo family, who founded a large conglomerate. His life is perfect, but one day, he has an accident and falls into a coma. Meanwhile, Morikawa Natsumi gets into a different accident on the same day and at the same time as Ichijo Ryoei. Morikawa Natsumi also falls into a coma due to her accident, but she miraculously wakes up from her coma.
A couple of weeks later, she is discharged from the hospital. Finally, she goes back to her home. What awaits her is Ichijo Ryoei, who is a ghost. He tells her that she owes him her life even though she doesn’t remember why. He tells her that she is the only one he can rely on, and he asks her to do something for him.

The same scriptwriter Yang Hee Seung penned both dramas. Both dramas have wholesome memorable characters and comedy within quirky romance. Oh my ghost has extra elements of ghost mystery and thriller while Weightlifting fairy is more lighthearted and slice of life. Both are enjoyable with solid acting from the cast
Basically becomes the same concept.
The rich guy owns the building that girl works at --> The guy is the top chef of the restaurant that girl works at
The girl is a witch --> The girl is possessed by a ghost
The girl has to kiss the guy for some supernatural reason --> The girl has to "get with" the guy for some supernatural reason
etc.

Oh My Ghost and Heart to Heart do not have similar plots, but they are both enjoyable to watch. The writing and directing along with the acting and chemistry worked well together to produce two wonderfully entertaining dramas. Although the plots are different, the female leads display a lovable awkwardness that subtly influences the charmingly over-confident male leads. Both dramas are definitely on my rewatch list.
