There is only 4 ep out on Netflix as I am writing this, but it is reminding me a lot of Nobunaga no Chef with the well known historical figure being fed food that is new and exciting by French Chefs.
Both chefs use their culinary skills and historic knowledge to make a meaningful meal and most importantly, keep themselves alive. I especially enjoy how the King and Nobunaga react to the meal with respect and genuine awe. I like how they are both smart but when they learn new words and cooking methods the chefs has used, they are eager to learn and understand. I imagine if they weren't foodies, the chefs would not have lasted at all.
Do they both change history? You'll have to watch for yourself.
We'll see how the endings differ but I if you enjoy food and history, you may enjoy Nobunaga no Chef.

I am simplifying it and ignoring the parent's stories, but both focus on supporting a child through her illness and coming closer as a family to do so. While the parentage isn't that complicated in Wonderful Life and after the diagnosis of the daughter Han Shin Bi, the focus shifts from a love story to focus on family. If you want more of an emotional roller coaster, I would say watch Oh My Geum Bi. Both even have Lee Ji Hoon! Both are worth watching and shedding a few tears.
