Well,,, you might wonder why I choose these drama as a recommendation…

But I would like to point out one thing which is…
Jung Dahee and Hyun Sooah character…
Both are tooooooooooooo similar…
I’d say it might be a ???? (inferiority complex)… which… might be one of social problem (according to what I’ve seen in a lot of drama and series tho)

This type of character might be a subject for research tho… ??

Although not obviously similar, the ML in both of these is a doctor and a criminal, and both shows have you debating the morality of his character. With a partial prison setting, and a partial medical setting, both shows hold a high suspense, psychological tension and interesting premise. I highly recommend both of these.

Kaori Fujimiya is always alone because all of her happy memories, including time spent with her friends, disappear every Monday. Deciding that he wants to be friends with her anyway, Yuuki Hase tries to get close to Kaori each week, wishing that she would one day call him "a friend."

- both have survivors of SA and life after it.
- TFF is more romance centered
-LBTR is darker and more realistic

Competitive elimination structure

Team-based strategic gameplay

High-pressure environment

Psychological tension

Both are fantasy style dramas featuring vampires. I feel the love stories in both and the situations in which the lead woke up were similar. Think of it as MAB but gender roles reversed.

If you’re a fan of the mature, high-achieving "power couple" energy in You Are My Glory, readers insist that Love Me, Love My Voice is a mandatory watch because it captures that same rare, "green flag" devotion but through an even more soothing, sensory lens. While You Are My Glory focuses on the weight of ambitious dreams and professional excellence, Love Me, Love My Voice offers a similarly respectful relationship where the leads are deeply supportive of each other’s unique passions—trading the high-stakes world of aerospace for the melodic beauty of voice acting and traditional music. Both dramas are frequently praised in comments for their lack of toxic tropes and "third-party" drama, making them the perfect pair for anyone who wants to see two successful people fall in love with maturity, grace, and absolute sincerity. Ultimately, watching this show is like experiencing the quiet, domestic happiness of Yu Tu and Qiao Jingjing expanded into a full, music-filled journey, providing the ultimate "healing" escape for your drama watchlist.
