Love Like the Galaxy: Part 1

FL lived away from parents and came back at a certain age
FL entangled with taciturn military figure
FL with a mother who appears to be their biggest adversary
FL is a character who is willing to seek revenge for those who act against her and does it in a smart way

Although the plot is different. The main female leads are in both dramas. And both have a similar vibe when it comes to the leads romance and certain situations.

:- same FL
:- FL grows up to be independent, trying to ensure their survival instead of relying on others. FL is witty, smart and sharp in both the dramas.
:- In both dramas, FL has a difficult childhood. (lived without parents)
:- Revenge plot for ML (family exterminated due to plotting)
:- Misunderstandings between ML and FL leading to angst
However, in The Story of Pearl Girl, the FL is determined to live independently and make her own way into business world while in Love Like the Galaxy, there is no such plotline.

But the FL in both dramas have some sort of similar outlook towards life.
(Note: Love Like the Galaxy has 2nd part too)

Both drama have wonderful balance of drama and comedy, and are more of a serius pieces then a ''comic'' one. The main heroines are a captivating character and we follow theirs stories with a rapid heart. If you looking for a high quality drama with a wonderfull main lead this would be a wonderful choices

These shows share almost no similarities in storyline or genre but they both parody their own genre while also maintaining a great plot of their own and both can make you laugh in the middle of the most serious scenes out of sheer absurdity. Bother are female-driven dramas with complex and interesting characters that have strong convictions and motivations behind all their decisions no matter good or bad. Lots of lessons about family, marriage, and children. Before LLTG I had been struggling to move past the masterpiece that is Sky Castle. People who enjoy clever humor and quality writing will without a doubt enjoy them both.

Both "How Dare You!?" and "Love Like the Galaxy" revolve around historical settings and intriguing family and political dynamics. Both series feature strong and clever female leads who are navigating the complexities of their respective societies, so you’re seeing that same vibe of family intrigue, political maneuvering, and a bit of romance intertwined. It’s kind of like you're following similar themes and tones, just within a different storyline. The male leads in "How Dare You!?" and "Love Like the Galaxy" often serve as steady, strategic figures navigating the same complexities, providing a balance of support and challenge to the female leads.

both have:
- favored general that holds much military power
- the general is feared and considered a dark knight
- arranged marriage by order of the emperor
- unwanted marriage by the FL (and her family)
- emperor favors the general
- hidden political plots

They have very similar style of humor. The heroines/heroes in both stories are very unique and hilarious in their own ways. Yet despite the humor, both stories managed to also be full of drama, intrigue and very heartfelt.

Amazing couples chemistry and historical dramas. Both have battle going on in the background with the main leads fighting to solve their own problems.

it's been a year since FIYS.
While Love like Galaxy seems a farfetched recommendation, i recognised Sun Kai (Xiao Pang) actor playing as a supporting actor to Leo Wu.
Equally funny

Both have a smart female lead who schemes to make her life better. There’s a little crime solving in both. The FLs have multiple suitors and they have significant relationships with the SMLs, not just one sided pining. They have a similar flavor

Proud, independent female with great fighting skills and no-nonsense, direct approach, who has a supporting, loving family. Male lead is elegant and handsome, aparently gentle and educated, but has a hidden secret story and purpose. Palace fighting for power. Male lead confess first ?
