A love so beautiful (ALSB) is simply an uplifting show! You can't help but smile.
It's a show with lots of couple time.
ALSB is funny, super sweet, cute, and simply adorable. The genius boy is still cold but supportive in his own way. A common characteristic amongst high IQ individuals is lower empathy... but in ALSB the main male lead has family reasons for not having a higher EQ.
There are so many remakes, adaptations, and versions of the original Itazura Na Kiss-- and I thought the Thai version was the best-- until I I saw ALSB now in Feb 2018. The Thai version is sweeter than the original (2/3 Japanese, 1 Korean, and 2 Taiwanese versions) but it still pretty much follows the original melodramatic storyline.

A much sweeter, beautiful, and fun version of girl in love with and chasing after super smart boy. Story covers their lives as high schoolers, college students, and young working professionals.

Both stories show younger men falling in love with older women. He is "forced" to pursue her for deceitful reasons in the Last Cinderella, yet ends up growing more mature and responsible. In Baby-Faced, the younger male lead sincerely helps the female character grow professionally.
Both shows are noona love stories. OML is about a super star who learns to be a better man as he leans to love and take care of his child. BT&SC is about a neglected and rebellious high schooler becoming a better man thanks to his love for his teacher.
Both rom coms are about a younger man falling for an older woman. In Baby Faced Beauty, the story is more about her professional growth-- whereas Oh My Lady is more about the male lead's personal growth.
Gender bending. There are 4 versions of this show-- from Taiwan (Hana Kimi 2006), Japan (Hana Kimi 2007), China (Runaway Sweetheart 2011-12), and Korea (To the beautiful you 2012).

Both stories are about younger men falling for older women. In OML, lead actress works for and "with" him. In KWKY, leads are office co-workers. There are no major annoying love triangles or super mean/evil characters in both shows.
It is the same plot. This Korean version is the best out the three shows (Korean, Taiwanese, and Japanese). By best I mean-- it's a "romantic" "comedy" and if you have not watched any version-- the Korean one is the funniest one. The Taiwanese one is sweet too because of Jiro Wang. The Japanese version is too abbreviated, not allowing enough time for all funny moments.
