both are light hearted office romcoms
in both cases, the MC has a double secret life featuring a nerdy hobby ( her private life's FL Stans a Kpop idol, My Dearest nemesis's ML is an otaku and a metal head )
in both cases, ML is the mean boss of the hardworking but strongheaded FL
Both editing styles are similar with special fantasy worlds to depict their hobbies

Both have Kim Jaewook as one of the main leads where their character is a PRO at their particular field. Also both use a filming style of having hyper stylized scenes, often where a character is imaging things/day dreaming. Antique is a little bit darker in theme/topic but both have light hearted moments and have characters who learn to open up to others and trust a bit, especially when it comes to confronting their past and their traumas. OH! and they are both fairly LGTBQ+ positive. In Antique there is a gay main character and in Her Private Life there is a situation in which a character is misunderstood as being in a gay relationship and the main character is supportive about it and even though they laugh about it later its never looked down on!
Both have:
- 2 lovers after 1 girl (typical but common)
- Male leads are the boss and rich
- ML and FL clash and discover they will be working together
- FL as an anonymous blogger & ML knows their true identity but FL doesn’t know ML knows (hope that makes sense Lol)
- Photography/artistic focus pertinent to the main career/job displayed in drama
- Typical office cast but FUNNIER office cast in Home Magazine

Someday is about four different people's story about love.
Hana Yamaguchi was a successful young cartoonist in Japan. Abandoned by her parents and brought up by her grandma, she was cold and aloof and did not believe in love which to her was only a simple biological response. When the elderly neighbourhood street sweeper died, she discovered the affection between him and her neighbour which lasted 60 years. Hana could not understand this kind of love, so she decided to trace her neighbour's footstep to Korea when she disappeared with her lover's ashes.
Go Jin Pyo was a doctor who was a comic book fan of Hana. He was overjoyed in meeting Hana and believed that he was in love for the first time in his life. He decided to help Hana in fulfilling her wish to look for her neighbour and enlisted the help of a private eye, Lee Seok Man.Lee was the sole survivor of a car accident whereby his parents and brother were killed. He carried a lot of guilt towards the parents of the other victim and did his best to help out even at the expense of owing money to the loan sharks.
Hye Young was a PD of animation projects and a close friend of Jin Pyo. she didn't realize that she was in love with him till Hana appeared.
In bringing her neighbour's love story to fruition and published in print, the process changed the lives and outlook on love for these four people.
