Be Melodramatic

멜로가 체질 ‧ Drama ‧ 2019
Both are about the professional life and struggles of modern script-writters.

Both have a girl, which talks to a ghost, who was once in love with her and revolve around making peace with him.

Both are workplace slice of life but their strength isn't in their setting. it's the storytelling that's done so well.
We get to see not only the main cast, but also the stories of surrounding characters. it may be sad or conflicting, but usually ends in a comforting tone. tears, laughter, awws, and warmth.
in this sense, the rollercoaster of emotions every single episode exactly the same. work setting is just the stage; the essence is in the feelings conveyed that result in feel good vibe by the end of each ep.

A wonderful slice of life which follows the story of three friends. Definitely not as gloomy as "You and everything else" but just as deep.

While Be Melodramatic is a clear slice-of-life, but watching Doom At Your Service (DAYS) gives of that slice-of-life vibes with the fantastical elements. Both dramas are calm and have healing nature tho DAYS is more heavy on that and the melodrama aspects.

Both shed light on common issues and expectations women encounter in the course of work that men rarely have to deal with.
Recommended by Zoecohen
Both works make fun about the current drama tropes and are extra meta to watch.
There's also a blend of the fictional and the real worlds in both dramas -- one character in Be Melodramatic is a drama scriptwriter and it's clear her drama is loosely based on her own story.

In Both, the Main leads are making movies & dramas.:

(Be Melo - Dramas and Documentary movies
Our Movie - Movies)

Both starring Jeon Yeo Been as a sad tragic character who makes a movie.

Our Movie is a tearjerker.
Be Melodramatic (despite its name) however is not a tearjerker but overall a feelgood slice of life drama-comedy, especially in back half.

Both TV dramas are very nice to look at visually. The stylist did a good job of matching the clothing to the character's personality.
Be Melodramatic is more friendship focused even though there is a love interest but it is not the main point of the story.
Both are comedic as well and not too emotional. I found myself laughing most of the time when watching both dramas

Both dramas are presented with quirky internal and external monologues that create similar comedic vibes.

Other similarities:
- Hate to love developments
- Very honest and outspoken main leads
- Falling in love with people they work with
- Strong/supportive friendships
- Healing character development
- Set in a drama-production environment (main leads are actor+lawyer for Love to Hate you, screenwriter+director in Be Melodramatic)

The friendship of the main characters in TBMTQYJ reminds me of the main characters of the BM. Although the former's relationship wasn't as deep as the one in BM, all the characters struggle with living life as independent adults.

Multiple strong female leads & Sismances.

Great writing in both, but Angel Destiny has even better writing.
