Both drama set on Jeju Island exploring themes of love , life's trails and human connection and highlighting the complexities of life and relationships .

Iam not saying here both dramas are exact copies of each other but If you love WLGYT then I'm pretty sure you gonna love Our Blues

Similar vibes
Genration gap
Female centric
90's vibes
Mother and daughter relationship
But in WLGYT there's no suspense who will be the husband..they showed Park Bo Gum is the husband in the future..they are happily married

This drama has a very similar vibe to 18 Again!
- parents (referring to ML & FL) were madly in love with each other when they were younger
- narrate the stories of both the parents' and children's lives/generation
- young adult parents, so they struggled in raising their children (young dad having to be the breadwinner and young mom taking care of the children)
- parents gave up their dreams for love (and later, for their child)
- parents would do anything to protect their children and give them the best of everything to their ability
- ultimately, both are happily married

ROOP is also set around 50s. Both shows portray the life of people in that era. ROOP can be said to be even more realistic, since it features serious mainstream drama actors who look exactly like how someone living in those times would look given all the hardships they faced. If you liked WLGYT for it's slice of life and realistic elements and love to watch realistic shows, then you would love ROOP.

The effort and sacrifices of the parents in rising their children. The relationship between parents and child.

- drama genre
- same vibe
- the IU acting and even some of her clothes in WLGT remindes my mister
- sadness/life problems
- charachter development
- poor female lead

Come from same writer and even the title is long and start with "With" lol. But seriously, both of series depicts on parenthood especially motherhood. The other similarity is the male lead is so whipped with their female lead. If you want feel the same feeling and same comedy style, you have tho watch this one. The acting, line up cast, maybe you will find one or two same actor in both drama.

San?r?m bilmiyorum, sadece iki dizideki çiftlerden de ayn? hissiyat? ald?m. Ve benzer diziler olacaklar?na inan?yorum.

Young childhood friends growing up in the same community and become lovers? From the trailer alone of When Life Gives You Tangerines, I recognize the same sea scene from Welcome to Samdalri. I don't really know the plot yet, but they definitely have the same vibessss

The love in both dramas especially in the past was pure and the parents in both dramas did everything for their kids to make them live amazing and wonderful life

It will make you sob too!! Their love never fades or dies! Ultimate tear jerkers. The idea of what love looks like, or how love should be .., the closest portrayal of what a green flag love looks or should look like, are shown in these dramas.

Both dramas offer rich narratives that explore women's experiences, personal growth, and complex relationships, providing engaging storytelling similar to "Two Women."

In 2023, 92-year-old Park Yeong Han, once a revered detective known as the "Columbo of Korea," visits Jongnam Police Station to check on his grandson, Park Jun Seo, a rookie cop. The story shifts to Park Yeong Han's early years in 1958, where he earned fame as a crimefighter in Gyeonggi Province. After transferring to Seoul's Jongnam station, he confronts a powerful gang controlled by political connections and corruption. Undeterred, he uses his wit and experience to uncover smuggling operations and confront the systemic issues plaguing the police force.
