Our Unwritten Seoul

Both dramas have
#TWINS SWAP PLACES Trope


Ruk Nee Jae Jad Hai is a highly underrated Thai lakorn (because it's thai, if this was a kdrama it would be more popular!)
involving Twins as MLs + FL's romance with the non-gay one, after the twins swap places.
FL is bffs with the Gay twin, and has no idea they swapped (nor that there are twins) lol

ML (the gay one) is an actor + FL a scriptwriter if I remenber correctly or some role in the Ent industry for FL. ML non gay pretends to be the famous actor twin.

FL confused why she's suddenly actractted to her GAY Bff LOL

Both are absolute tearjerkers. Both have imperfect single mothers. Highly recommend if you enjoy complex/strained mother-child relationships and seeing how they ultimately reconcile and understand each other. Both end with legal vengeance (taking down the big bad corporate guys). Slow burn romance.

TWIN SISTERS as Main Characters in both,


Our Unwritten Seoul:
there's a TWINS SWAP PLACES Situation

Sisters-in-Law:
both sisters marry into 2 different families who are rival families of each other.

Both Our Unwritten Seoul and Love All Play touch on themes of repairing family connections. Also, main leads in both, have to deal with heavy personal issues while growing closer together.

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.

Both dramas feature identical twins with different personalities. In this drama(ugly beauty) the younger sister pretends to be the older one for a while (I won't reveal why, that’s the main plot!). In both dramas (as per description of our unknown Seoul) after the switch, both sisters end up finding their true love.

not me is bl but
identical twins
one twin taking revenge for the another
they have different personalities , one is outgoing another is quite
learning about their twin's opposite lifestyle / secrets
in Not me the quite one is the mc

Both are healing dramas with melo_romance
Both have childhood crushes on the boy in the neighbour's house
Both are about bonding btw their siblings and their respective struggles
Even tho their stories are different, they still make you feel similar types of emotions and struggles

Both dramas star Park Bo Young and explore mental health struggles in realistic, empathetic ways. While Our Unwritten Seoul focuses on agoraphobia and workplace trauma, Daily Dose of Sunshine dives into depression, bipolar disorder, and stigma within psychiatric wards. Both show how human connection, kindness, and understanding can bring hope to those who feel trapped.

The stories are very different on the surface, but the core themes appear to be very similar. The kind of response Mirae's character is getting is identical to what Chen Yun Ru got in SOOD. And if you are a mature person with a well functioning brain, you will loathe what certain privileged people have to say about these 2 characters. It will remind you that even in 2025, we still have people that get annoyed at people who are struggling psychologically and look 'depressed' all the time giving 'negative vibes'. SOOD has done an excellent job with Chen Yun Ru's character, and OUS is doing very well with Mirae's character so far. If you need a drama with such complex and highly realistic characters, watch SOOD & OUS.

You might think it is totally different. Indeed, it is not about sisters, it is not set in a work office and the "depressing" vibe that convey messages/quotes is missing.

But it is still about family. You get to see their growth, which is the strength of the show by the way. Like we see the sisters' past and present, choices and events that happened, things that set themp apart and back together. You get to see this in this drama as well.

Our unwritten Seoul also has a strong development between a imperfect mother and her daughters. Here it's about the relationship between a dad and his daughter. Both are really deep relationships. In a sense it tackles the issue of a single dad that is overlooked in South Korea but also around the world.

If our unwritten Seoul tends to be more depressing, this one is more likely about hardships that shape a relationship and strenghten it, in a way it's lighthearted but it doesn't lack any depth.

Like this drama where office bullies are visible misaeng also focus on this concept. How office bully can make one miserable.
