In both series, ML is a supernatural being, ML & FL knew each other in a past life (and FL learns of her past life), and there is a murder mystery going on that threatens FL’s life. Additionally, FL is an orphan and there is a higher power involved in both series.
The fact that these both aired at the same time was kind of ironic, too.

Another drama that I keep on being reminded of while watching this drama. Same as Strong Woman Dobong Soon, the crime concept is almost the same. Serial killer of women that is traced back up to the present times. And yeah, the fantasy element of the ML being the police assigned to solve the crime in a timelined manner. Like, the ML from the past and present is the same.
Both are romances between a supernatural ML (cupid vs. genie) and a human FL who is missing something that limits her ability to interact with others (lacking emotions vs. lacking a red thread that would let her find love). In both dramas it's revealed later on that the leads knew and loved each other in a past life that ended tragically with the FL's death and they've now lost memories of.
- Both of the female leads are veterinarians
- These dramas are supernatural/fantasy and have a sillier killer investigation plot, which adds a touch of mystery to both dramas.
- Both female leads help in the investigation. Bong Ye Bun (Behind Your Touch, FL) helps the male lead, who works as a detective, with her superpowers. Oh Baek Ryun (My Man is Cupid, FL) is the only witness of the killer that the male lead has been trying to find for years because he had a relationship with one of the victims.
- In the beginning, the relationship between the male leads and the female leads starts with a misunderstanding which was hilarious. You may think these dramas could be heavy because of the mystery but they actually have a nice sense of humour.
The differences:
- Bong Ye Bun ( BYT/FL) had her superpowers from unusual circumstances meanwhile Cheon Sang Hyuk ( MMIC/ ML) is a Cupid for more than 500 years.
- MMIC has a past life plot but BYT is not.
- MMIC has more romance than BYT.
