Both dramas involves forced marriage. The storyline for these two dramas focuses on uncovering the main villain, prior to that they would alway catch other less important villians. In both dramas, the couples do not like each other at first and thus have a lot of cute fights. In General's Lady, the couple fall in love quicker than The Romance of Hua Rong. For the female lead in General's Lady her goal is to be a wife whom the husband can rely on and confide in whereas in The Romance of Hua Rong, the female lead goal is to be a heroine, but both are considered to be smart and witty. Both male leads are very good in martial arts and always save the female leads from danger. Initially, they may appear cold and heartless, but will reveal to be kind hearted and empathetic.
ML in My Villain Husband resembles ML in General's lady. Also, the personality of both ML's is quite similar and both are generals. Both FL's have strong personality and they know how to stand their ground. The story progression is similar though General's lady has longer episodes so the story is not as rushed as in My Villain Husband.
I am truly enjoying this series. I wish I could watch it all at once and not have to wait. It doesn't hurt that Caesar Wu is so handsome and truly is carrying his part magnificently. He seems to really immerse himself in the part. The FL is also doing a great job. They seem to fit into their roles as if born to it. Great job directing, producing and script writing. The whole staff should be praised. I give a 10 out of 10 in all areas. Keep up the good work. I just put that title because I needed it.
The overall feel of General’s Lady is similar to Maiden Holmes. If you like the fluffy romance with some interesting sub plots like General’s lady had, then you’ll love Maiden Holmes as well. In Maiden Holmes we have the ML whos smitten with the female lead and swears to protect her and that’s very similar to General’s Lady.
