It's Okay to Not Be Okay

Both are considered healing dramas as the main character struggles to get over their past and regrets through their blooming love for each other and matured.

Similar in these aspects:

- Both have that otherworldly feel to it
- Mystical-like storytelling element
- Dark and based on fairy tales
- Intimidating and powerful female leads
- Hidden past

similar dynamic , the 2 main leads both have something wrong with them and they work together to get better and heal each other along the way

- both are healing dramas.
- the chemistry of the leads are on point.
- both dramas take place in a hospital (in iontbo a psychic hospital and in chococlate a hospice).
- the dramas take place by the sea.

Both feature female protagonists who are blessed with everything, including a great body, smarts, ability to sympathize with others, patience, ability to react quickly, and stamina.

there's no age gap in IOTNBO but in both dramas:
- the FL is rich (and has a great wardrobe) + has been sheltered (personalities differ though)
- FL pursues ML first and relentlessly chases after him
- has a ML who has things holding him back from starting a relationship with FL (in TFF its age gap and his responsibility as an adult, in IOTNBO its his responsibilities and her personality).
- both have great chemistry between leads
other than that plot varies wildly, but I think it's a good rec to keep in mind if you run out of directly similar ones.

Both have a mentally challenge child at home. Fully functioning, smart and genius in someway but mentally struggle in another way. Both have a very committed family member unconditional love

Both dramas are psychological rom-com and the main theme is mostly related to female leads. Both dramas have wonderful leads and a nice romance.

- Both dramas MASTERFULLY portray mental health issues
- Both dramas MLs have complex brotherly relationships which is beautifully portrayed and is so touching
- Brotherhood is a strong part of both dramas
- Both ML s work in healthcare settings
- Both MLs are very hot xD I mean it's Lee Dong Wook and Kim Soo Hyun <3
- Both are top-notch psychological mysteries

Feel are the same, healing love
And the guy are cold but warm
Female like the guy but also excell at her job

- Um dos principais tem algum problema psiquiátrico e de certa forma mostram um tipo de obsessão pelo outro;

- Em ambos um dos protagonistas trabalham direta ou indiretamente com a psiquiatria;

- Também tem o fato de que os protagonistas se conhecem antes em certa parte da vida.

Dramas sensíveis e poéticos, com protagonistas emocionalmente quebrados e jornadas de autoconhecimento. A vibe é lenta, melancólica e extremamente reflexiva.
