My Liberation Notes

Another show that encapsulates loneliness. The show thoughtfully presents a main character, an introvert, who travels to work and back each day. Slowly, she comes out of her shell and engages with the world around her.

- Similar offbeat vibe.
- Workplace happenings and how the characters deal with them.
- Contemplative about life; what it is, why it tires you out, how you can choose to live it in order to survive.
- Interesting dialogue but also lots of needed silence.

Similarities:
both have that quiet and soothing vibe.
long and interesting dialogue and perspectives from the characters
has a lot of silence or natural sound in the background

Both JTBC dramas are directed by Kim Seok Yoon. Both dramas involve sibling and parent relationships, romance, the struggles of daily life, and finding happiness and meaning.

Both are slice of life and have a certain melo feel to it and i am pretty sure anyone who liked my liberation notes will like navillera

first of all! the amazingly deep dialogues and theories about life from each character perspective that really sticks with you.
-slow paced with gruadually blooming romance
-deals with problems about family as well as survival in today's world
according to me both the dramas give a very comforting theme where instead of pining over any kind of villanizm and waiting for a typical hero-villain knockout, u just sit back and relax while watching it. your mind is stimulated in a very deep way which makes u internally satisfied
it has heart touching dialogues and carry a similar slice of life theme

Set in Sanpo Village where more people leave than remain, the three Yeom siblings, Chang Hee, Mi Jung, and Ki Jung, wish to escape from a life rife with uncertainty.

A mysterious man, Mr. Goo, moves into their neighbourhood. He is a drunkard with the look of someone with many burdens and secrets. His cautious personality and preference for keeping to himself make him the subject of gossip. Mi Jung, the youngest and most timid Yeom sibling, decides to approach him.

fl lead with mental health issues, and ml basically worships her, he loves her like breathing but the first frost is even more, he can not live without her

Obviously, both have Lee Min Ki in it. Although BTIMFL is more preppy and happy, they both are in the slice of life genre, showing the events in the mundane lives of normal people. They both discuss certain topics that are quite relatable to the public, like insecurities, societal pressures, relationships and their fragility, workplace toxicity, and just the overall hardships of being a broke young adult with nothing to your name.

My Liberation Notes and Our Unwritten Souls are both slowburn stories where nothing crazy happens at first, but they hit you emotionally. They’re about people who feel lost, tired of their boring lives, and are just trying to find a reason to keep going. Both have deep, relatable quotes about life that stay with you. It’s not loud or dramatic—it’s quiet, real, and honest. You slowly watch the characters grow and try to understand themselves. If you’ve ever felt stuck or unsure about life, these stories will feel very real to you.

There are several reasons I find Resident Playbook similar to My Liberation Notes.

First it’s about life, and the main character seems tired of work, and tired of many things. She’s nonchalant and looks aloof on the exterior. But we see their development.

And the drama shows us the lives of several people, and how they deal with what comes in their way. The siblings in MLN and the first year residents in RP.

Then we have a heart-stealing ML on the side who seems a bit older than the rest. Looks-wise they are both the not your flower-boy looking ML and that’s refreshing, but character wise they are different.

The FL approaches and makes moves on the ML first, and the relationship is a beautiful slow-burn that compliments the drama episodes. But never too much.

With different themes, in both cases the whole drama is a very relatable life scenario, but RP is a lot brighter.

Takenouchi plays an aquarium employee named Kengo, who seems ordinary at first glance but actually possesses a secret that he would sacrifice everything in order to protect. Meanwhile, Ueto plays Risa, a young woman working in the sex trade in order to pay off her brother's debt, though her situation has led her to contemplate suicide. These two characters, both full of despair, meet each other and end up entering a contract marriage purely for its benefits. However, as they overcome various troubles, their relationship begins turning into true love

- vulnerable and mature conversations ( inner \ with others)
- Son Seok Koo and Lee El are acting in both dramas
- both stories show the effect of the person's background (family, society values, living in a city or countryside) on their behavior.

both dramas have multiple couples
kinda slow burn romance
Kim Ji Won is sorta the female lead in both series
both dramas are really well made ,
casting perfection and excellent script

One thing that kept me watching both dramas are Male lead character. If you're looking for same kind of male lead character then both the drama has one. Both gives similar "no fucks given vibe"!!
