Editorials 
Both The Husband and Agent Kim Reactivated center on a kidnapping that spirals into a larger web of drama, conspiracy, and danger. Both feature action, violence, and heart-clenching moments. The key difference is that Agent Kim Reactivated has a broader political focus, bigger players, more action and gore, and occasional comedy, while The Husband revolves around a more focused, contained conspiracy.
Both are gender bender/shape shifting dramas but the premise is different. In MGIAM, the female lead changes into the same man whereas in FYH, the female lead changes into multiple people uncontrollably. FYH is a Chinese historical drama romance whereas MGIAM is a modern Korean romance. MGIAM is also more focused on comedy elements whereas FYH does include comedy, but also has some mystery. Both have romance.
Both are k-dramas that involve the FL changing into a different person. In MGITM, the FL has a family curse where women in her family change into men at any point in their lives for an undetermined time. In MNAD, the FL switches by day and night, stays the same gender, but changes age. Both have elements of comedy, romance, and drama.
Both are Korean variety dating shows, but their concepts are different. BLTS has contestants that have never dated all living in a house together for several days, going on multiple dates until the final pairing. MSR has sets of male and female siblings all live together in one house for several days, also following the same events until the final pairing. Both hold off on mentioning age or background until further in the show. Both use phones to pair up with others, although MSR more so because there’s daily ratings of potential partners.

Both are seasons of Better Late Than Single. You can watch one season without having to watch the other. They have the same concept (people in their 20s and 30s who have never dated interacting and going on dates to hopefully partner up) but a different cast.
Both TW and SGBS feature plots heavily surrounding super hero abilities and have genres that include fantasy, action, comedy and romance. SGBS is more of a romantic comedy first however whereas TW has some romance sprinkled in but the main elements of the show are the group relationships, comedy and action,
Both involve plot surrounding blood types/blood infections generating different categories of humans and are science fiction. Both have possessive MLs and are heavily romance focused. ABO Desire is a BL whereas Affinity is not. Both are shorter dramas.
Both take place in the Joseon Dynasty, include focus on royalty and memory loss. FL has memory loss in MR whereas ML has memory loss in 1DMP. MR also features fantasy elements unlike 1DMP. 1DMP is also more of a lighthearted romcom compared to MR.
Themes of unrequited love and friends into lovers. ML is photographer in both. MTF is a longer form drama with more back and forth compared to S1.
Both explore the legal genre, although BTB is more legal heavy whereas JFH heavily includes fantasy elements. Both feature romance, however, JFH certainly includes more romance and BTB more so hints at it, but I wouldn’t say it’s the main genre of either. JFH is darker, gothic, and more gory. Both focus on one case per episode usually, although JFH is more about punishing each evildoer whereas BTB focuses on defense. Both explore the morally grey areas in life and provoke the audience to think.
Both explore the law from different points of view. Both are labeled as “romances.” BTB certainly has more elements of romance than JVJ and both hint at romance between the main leads, but I wouldn’t call these romances. Both feature a ML and FL who at the start have differing personalities and friction between each other.
