On the Way to the Airport

공항 가는 길 ‧ Drama ‧ 2016
Both dramas are similar for their cheating aspect, both FL's are not satisfied with the relationship they have with their husband, thus, looking or accidentally looked at another man that appreciates their value more as a woman. They did not find the "other" man, they just happened to be in the right situation at the right time, and the "other" man caught their attention. The difference is that H has a sad ending, but OTWTTA has a happy ending, though not seen, just implied. And another thing, H is kinda steamy, but OTWTTA is more conservative, I don't know how they did it, but it came out nicely and sweet. H is also sweet and nice, but more sexy in my opinion.

Older Leads Romance in both (40s +) that makes you swoon.

Don't be put off by the "cheating" in Way To Airport, I was skeptical at 1st too, but the lead's husbnd and wife are both awful people, one cheates on her first with her bff, the other does something horrible involving his child....

A bit similar plot about younger ML & older FL who attracted to each other but FL already married but FL & ML had an affair. If you like this kind of genre is a must watch drama. Yamapii is an eye candy for sure.

If you can't get over Lee Sang Yoon just yet, watch On the Way to the Airport, after watching Twenty Again, or vice versa.

Anyway, both dramas are similar because:
1.) Both female leads are wives, with a child and the husbands do not love them anymore. Either they are on the verge of breaking up, or sort of broke up already, not just legalizing the divorce yet.
2.) Both husbands of the FL's have another woman already. They are having an affair with someone else.
3.) Both wives find "friendship" with a male friend...who helps them a lot
4.) Both dramas are discovering yourself and shining again after coming from rock bottom,aka, divorce...

There are a lot of differences too, but just watch both of them. Or if you have watched either of them, you will want to watch the other drama. Believe me...and male lead, Lee Sang Yoon is so adorable on both dramas...you won't have withdrawal syndrome from him if you watch both dramas one after the other...
