1) Both have a female protagonist whose soul leaves her body and has a 2nd chance at life by a reaper.
2) Both female leads discover secrets they didn't realize at the time of their deaths
3) Both show the horrid side of human nature that is revealed when the female protagonist is seeing it from a different perspective.

They have a similar concept, but in 49 Days, the female lead enters in another body. While IIWY has male & female switch bodies

Both of these series have a lot of similarities, for example both the female leads have a similar relationship with their husbands/ fiance. Because at first their husbands/ fiance cheated on them and both the female leads wanted revenge.
