Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha

갯마을 차차차 ‧ Drama ‧ 2021
Both have settings in the countryside. Similar vibes and slow-burn romance.
Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha has a more comedic tone than Chocolate which is more melodrama.
- FL and ML met when they were kids

Hometown cha cha cha is also a slice of life and deals with a lot of problems that people deal in their daily life similar to when life gives you tangerines.
And also this drama is based in a sea side location which gives similar vibe .

The parent child relationship, orphan child, a parent who lost child all these concepts are explored in both the drama... Both these dramas give healing vibes and nostalgia..... healthy relationship between partners is similar

Both main heroes suffered from depression in their youth (and tried to commit suicide at a certain period of their life)... A friend of them then got into an accident and died (therefor they felt responsible for their death) and visit therapist.

The female lead is being chased by another guy who likes her very much.., but also very much like the main male lead as a friend. Their manly rivalry/friendship bickerings and fights all over the girl are very petty and cute at the same time.

In both the hero and the heroine met at first as children.. and later as adults. All have atleast one missing parent (even if they were later on adopted by the partner of their related-by-blood parent) and that might have caused them some suffering as children.

Mommy!! This lineup is super expected!! The fork in the road of life has two different lives

THEY ARE QUITE SIMILAR AS THEY ARE ALL ABOUT HEALING EACH OTHERS PAIN AND TRAUMA. THEIR RELATIONSHIP IS BUILT ON MUTUAL RESPECT, AND IT HAS BICKERING TO LOVERS' ENERGY TOO.

-Main couple in both dramas were complete opposites and were at odds with each other in the beginning, with the Male Lead secretly holding a crush on the Female Lead.
-Both Male Leads are smart. One being a born genius with high IQ/photographic memory and one is a jack of all trades. Both decide to lay low in life being freelancers and unemployed due to their own reasons.
-Both Female Leads open their own practice to realize their dreams. Both have a strong sense of justice, are honest and straightforward. Once they realized their feelings, they waste no time to confess.
-Once Main Leads officially become couples, they turn into sweet, fuzzy, cheesy and cringey couples where bystanders gets sick of how lovey dovey they are to each other. Which in it itself was hilarious to watch but also give you a warm and happy feelings.

Both are romantic comedy at its finest.

different plot but both positive, (fantastic is also sad at times because of cancer subject, but same time funny), realistic dramas with real characters and relationships.

also, very similar love triangles which becomes lovely bromance - (spoilers:) when I watched HCCC I thought that I've never seen triangle like this with rival men with so healthy relationship, respect and becoming friends, but then I saw same in Fantastic, even sweeter bromance which started after love triangle. In both dramas SML is very good guy who can see when his feelings are unrequited (though in both dramas FL first liked him) and move on, like it would be in real life and healthy relationships, he can be real friend with FL and ML too and ML very much likes him, they form soo lovely bromance.

Set in the country side, both dramas are revolve around adult life. While Homcha is a fluffy slice of life romance comedy, My Liberation Notes is a light gloomy slice of life with dry humours.

Homcha has Hong Banjang, a social butterfly guy who always helps the villagers but actually has a piece of his life that he doesn't share with other people. While My Liberation Notes has Mr. Goo, a mysterious man who doesn't want to involve himself with everyone else.

There are so many common features on the two TV shows:

1. Sweet scenes, lots of
2. Make you fall in love
3. There is no bad guy but just relaxing
4. Feel good and laughing
5. Fate
6. Both male leads have trauma in the past
7. Family and friendship
8. Stories of second leads are also sweet
9. Man leads are very charming
10. Super expensive sport cars (haha)
11. The clothing...
12. (more...)

There are also some minor differences:

1. The storylines of Secretary Kim are much simpler than Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha's.
2. One is in the big city and the other is in a small seaside village.
3. One is with the finance magnate and the other is not.
4. One may make you laugh and cry and the other will only make you laugh.

When I watched hometown cha cha cha this drama reminds me. The male leads have some similarity...It is also in country side...there's also an interaction when they were kids..

* These two are Kim Seon Ho’s representative works
* Beautiful music
* Similar shooting/production technique
* Both are the growth story
* Both feature 'Halmeoni'
* Both may make you cry
* Both feature hand-written diaries/letters
* Poetic
* Remarkable golden words
* (More...)

In addition to the above, someone might treat Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha as Season#2 of Kim Seon Ho's story. There are many fan-made pictures of the 2 TV shows to relate Han Ji-pyeong and Hong Banjang's past. And this situation adds a lot of entertainment.
