I only made this connection when I wrote my review for ShuKe & TaoHua:
Both have a strong character base and very slow character development.
They also have a similar length so hang tight LOL.
I know there are many differences in the storyline, don't come at me. But if you appreciated a handful of multi-dimensional characters, then you might enjoy the recommendation (disclaimer: FL of Shuke & TaoHua is pretty 1-D at first).
Also, I really appreciate these dramas covering the typical Asian family dynamic: there may be some seemingly toxic behavior going on but ultimately, family is the strongest bond. You can disagree with that statement but that's how it really be for some people.

I've only watched a part of First Love It's you, its giving me You Are So Sweet vibes. FLIY is VERY short though.
- both in the dubbing industry
- ML has "hidden identity"
- FL admires ML's hidden identity
- pretty light romance

I guess Daddi Tang really likes playing those childhood secret admirer roles.
Similarities:
- Were childhood friends
- FL moved back home then ran into ML
- FL gets hired at ML workplace as a worker that is not in the same field (accountant for software company and lawyer for hospital)
- FL has strong sense of justice/motivation
- ML is a bit cold and has many admirers but is sweet to FL

- ML and FL had childhood past
- FL has a rare disease
- ML has liked FL before
- FL was hurt by ML in school (has to do with stages)
- FL has a distinct, strong moral compass/personality
- ML is owner of FL house and lives with her (later in the story)
- both are very cute, with some drama about business competition (LIS is a bit more intense)

- ML is CEO of architecture firm and is on the colder side
- FL is assistant more on the bubbly side (but not dumb)
- ML has broken relationship with SML
- ML and FL meet through an accident

-There is a female that likes ML for a long time, is business partner, tries to sabotage relationship of FL & ML
-CEO & secretary relationship, more bubbly FL
-SML is "friends" with CEO and likes FL (at least in the beginning)
- You Are So Sweet is waaaaay more light hearted

- FL has strong family background but choses to abandon it
-FL starts working for ML
-both are comedies, although I found Royal Sister Returns to be more comedic (maybe partially bc of good chemistry)
- There is a past connecting the ML and FL and their families
-Sm:)e has a more light hearted ending

-FL is independent, smart, down to earth
-FL & ML have history (different types but still)
-has moments of comedy and more serious parts too (although WDL has more heavy parts)
-there is a kind of childish FSL

- Contracted/arranged marriage
- Slowly started liking each other
- Woman is independent/quite successful/not poor
- Is a bit involved in the acting industry

- Boss-employee relationship
- FL tries to quit job
- ML and FL has some previous history (although its different)

WBIL is more light-hearted

- FL works for competing company
- Both ML are competing CEOs interested in FL
- FL is interested in design/fashion

But Love Designer has more mature FL.
General storyline is different.
