Nao Saeki is happy with her life. She has a great job as a stylist and also has a very sincere and loving fiancé, Kazuya Yuki. But one day, her sister Miho gets caught up in an incident overseas in which she is tragically killed. The shock of Miho's sudden death causes her husband Mitsuhiko to lose his memory. As a result of all that has taken place, Nao has to look after Mitsuhiko and his son Yusuke. At first, Nao is just trying to help the two, but living together and watching Mitsuhiko try to start a new life plants the seeds of a "new emotion" within her heart. It doesn't take long for those feelings to turn into love.
What Nao doesn't know is that her colleague Chihiro Tomita has feelings for Kazuya, as her own feelings waver back and forth between her brother-in-law and fiancé. When Mitsuhiko's memory comes back, the realization that he has lost his wife is more than he can bear - causing him great anguish. Later, Kazuya finds out about Nao's feelings for Mitsuhiko and is torn by jealousy. And as the story reaches its final stage, we learn the real reason behind Miho's death.

Similar in the setting. Both are workplace romances featuring bankers. Familiar Wife deals with aspects of marriage and the regret of the ML with great character development throughout. The transformation of characters especially the ML and FL to lovely human beings is the best. On the other hand, You are my Secret deals with one of the greenest flag MLs ever. His love for the FL and their development as a couple was a treat to watch. Highly recommend both of these dramas.

Both the golden spoon and familiar wife are about a guy that hates his life and he blames the people around him
If they were different I'd be happier sort of a thing, one did regret it and we'll see how the other acts

Mizushima Toru is a former literary youth who lives a dull office worker life. One day, he receives an invitation and visits Kaede Inno Flower Shop. The owner, Mochizuki Hayato, is curt and blunt, and suddenly offers three flowers, saying, "choose what you like". Toru chooses one, tears off the petals, and for some reason finds himself in a high school classroom! In a panic, he searched around to find out what was going on, and found a diploma with "March 1, 2013" written on it. "Congratulations on your graduation" is written on the blackboard. What a time leap 10 years ago. The woman who appeared there was Toru's first love, Shindo Kasumi. However, the bitter past cannot be changed, and only regret remains. Hayato said "There are 7 tickets left for fate". With 7 more time leaps, will he be able to redo past regrets and fulfill his first love?!

It is not exactly the same...actually quite different but still gives similar vibes.
Both are second chance romance.
Both leads work in the same office.
Love triangle
Male leads later realize how female leads also had to make so many sacrifices and recognize their faults as well.
Happy Ending
