Undercover Miss Hong

The names of the dramas are similar.
In both the older leads go undercover to high school to uncover a secret!

This drama gives a similar vibe, both leads are undercover.. and things get messy when the female lead meets her ex as her boss. The guy gets suspicious, while she pretends not to know him. Fun, tense, and addictive.

Both of the titles are set in 1997, during the korea financial crisis. Also they both explore the themes of office work, illegal business, company struggles and how to save the said company. The characters that make up the office team in both of the dramas bring enough comedy, companionship and entertainment to the viewer in a very similiar way. Each of them presents a very aesthetic lookout on the era where the story takes place, leaving the viewer wishing they can go back in time and experience it themselves. Lastly, the main themes of the story in the dramas is not the romance, but the office work, strategy, friendship and problem solving.

Albert and Miss Hong reminded me of the lawyer and FL in graceful family. Similar taking down business family con with female villains reminding me a lot of each other.

I think it is made the same guy who done this kdrama and both of this kdramas are so funny.
Just one thing though i wish ahn hyo seop or kim sejeong had a cameo for this kdrama.

Infiltração em trabalho!! (Grupo parecido com o de LID)

Infiltration at work!! (Group similar to LID's)

I think this has the same theme has each other.the both had corruption and really bad people in these two kdramas. One is a lawyer and one is money person.

A con artist and an unusually empathetic lawyer become partners while investigating a murder case. The heroine is extremely intelligent and frequently uses disguises and deception to gather information.

It's less workplace-focused than Miss Hong, but it has that same feeling of "the protagonist is always three steps ahead while everyone else is trying to figure out what's happening." It also mixes mystery with humor.


Why you'll like it:
? Smart female lead
? Deception & disguises
? Investigation
? Comedy
? Mystery
? Great character chemistry

Both dramas set in the pre-2000s era, in which Aema is set in 1980s while Undercover Miss Hong is set in 1990s. Both dramas present female characters working in male-dominated industries.

Both are uplifting workplace rom-coms where a resilient female lead enters a quirky corporate team (webtoon editors / financial regulators), blending office humor, coworker bonds, and light romance with career triumphs.

Both cover undercover plot to reveal bad people.
Both have revenge plot but the taxi driver takes more cases while this just cover one big case.
Miss hong is more women centric than the taxi driver.
Both also don't focus to romance and just solving crimes.

Classic workplace comedy where a protagonist goes undercover as a rookie to dismantle company corruption.
