The Romance of Tiger and Rose

This is a bad boy / purehearted girl romance. It is Cute+Fun+Light-hearted, but the actors and director took the production seriously. {Oh, the bad boy. Enjoy him on the screen, but run away IRL girls!} Dylan Wang has to play a woman in a man's body in some scenes. He is superb. The theme song is Spotify-worthy. FL is darling. The villain is slightly overdone, but that's common in Chinese features. The Chinese do excel at inflicting pain in their entertainment, but LBFAD won't rip your heart out, so it is a nice break from more intense dramas.

Same time travel
Male lead is originally was supposed to be with the second fl
Both ost are masterpiece
Fl is cheerful and not annoying and also reasonable

Both are about a modern day FL who enters the world of a historical novel in which the ML will eventually become a villain. She begins changing the story and falls in love with the ML.

Female lead goes to another "dimension", and everything starts from the beginning. Both female leads know what is going to happen and tries to change it. In Legally Romance, FL goes back in time 11 years to when she was still a college student and this time, she tries to fix her life. In the Romance of Tiger and Rose, the FL gets trapped in her script and tries to make her story stay on track. In both dramas, the female leads try to set the male leads up with the second female leads but fails to do so. Both dramas are light and funny.

- opposing cities;
- great comedy;
- bickering between mains;
- funny servants;
- debates on roles of men and women

Both have a modern day lead or leads entering a fictional historical world, and both poke fun at/play with common wuxia tropes.

Hate to Love couple
Bickering couple
Optimistic, bright female lead
Sort of narcissistic prodigy male lead
Similar comedy
Parody of romance tropes
Male lead falls in love first thinking that the female lead liked him due to narcissism

Both are about a modern day FL entering a fictional historical story where she becomes increasingly involved with the villain, derailing the original plot.

In a society where women make decisions and men play a secondary role...................................

Dramas have similar vibe and ending. FL travels from modern time to alternate historical dimension where she is trapped and must achieve certain objectives to return home. She doesn’t expect to fall in love along the way but once she does it changes everything…

Both are dramas with a modern day FL who becomes a character in a historical novel. Both couples hate each other at first.

-the MLs hating each other at first
- both MLs are smart and useful
-they are protecting each other
-slow paced of romance
-the FL is shameless
-the ML fall for FL first
-ML does everything for FL without her knowing
-anti cliche
