Both Male Leads were picked up from the snow.
Both Female Leads require the ML to marry into their family.
Both Male Leads had a hidden identity and temporarily lived with the FL.
Both Female Leads are Strong in Character and take charge of the well-being of their Family.
Difference is:
Pursuit of Jade: The premise of the FL being the head of the family was somehow overshadowed by the upbringing and his rank in the military and court; even if at the end he chose to still stay married into her family. It is more romantic in a traditional sense.
Glory: Format is similiarly-paced like a vertical drama (director used to work on vertical drama). Many hints and details can be missed in the first viewing. Great rewatch value. The FL is a matriarch of a business family (tea industry). She, being a domineering CEO, him being a green tea cat; results in a great push-and-pull dynamic during their courting period. The drama asks the viewer to see a world that is flipped (it makes more sense in the first half if we imagine a reversed harem) while challenging the notion of blindly following tradition over following values. The last arc contrasts their world that serves as a comparison to glimpse at how people are shaped by different types of families. If you want to see a true strong FL that is more similarly-mirrored to modern strong women, then this would be your cup of tea!
