Both are 2019 romantic comedy dramas with cute romance and boss-secretary relationship. They have similar vibe so if you like this type of drama you will probably love both.

Both are office Romance-Comedy dramas that involve a cold-hearted boss and a passionate worker secretary.

They are not that similar on the history, but they have a quite similar feel on my opinion. The huge acting skills and chemistry between the leads also made them look a like to me.

Cute accomplices vibes.
CEO ML.
Steamy kisses.
Funny scenes.
Almost -always-on-suit-ML

- rich male lead and passionate female lead relationship

- fake relationship turned into an everlasting one

Donovan is an American model in search of a woman he's lost touch with. Pam is a kindergarten teacher. When her grandfather becomes sick, Pam learns he'll need to undergo an expensive operation. In order to raise the funds, Pam takes a job working for Palee Modeling where she's assigned to work as a manager and personal interpreter for Donovan. She's soon wrapped up in both his work and personal affairs.

Both dramas center around an office romance where the participants are completely different people. The balance between work and private life begins to disappear and we get a view behind the main characters. Also we got humor and a bizarre boss in both dramas.

similar concept of main female pretending to be someone she is not. however, where secret life is more comedic/romcom, cheongdamdong alice is a melodrama

the all high and mighty boss who experienced sadness at a tender age and engraved it in his heart was able to come out of it and decide to enjoy life to its fullest

both have the same vibe, although the stories are not similar... due to ML's disability, he conveys a certain naivety just like SKL's ML
