Modern Farmer (2014)

similiarities:

--same writer!
--group of friends who have a dream (music as opposed be a writer, actor, videographer) but have a day job to help make that dream become a reality (cabbage farmers vs. guesthouse
--family = friends
-- the funny!

- Both have a variety of characters of different ages and in different phases of their lives.
- Lots of comedy in both, but also has a slice of life element mixed into it.
- Showcases real life themes like single parenting, not knowing what to do with your life, break-ups, illnesses, cheating, etc.
- Both male leads are airheads, which causes them to be in unfortunate situations.
- The female leads are well known to their surrounding, while it's a different environment for other characters.
- Both dramas take place in a different setting than most other dramas.

The Package, however, is shorter and has better romance between the leads. Modern Farmer has a bromance theme that isn't in The Package.

Both are about a young man go to the mountain or farm area to escape. Both has music genre. People warmed his heart. He was touch and shaped into a different man, a responsible, and sweet loving man

Both are comedy dramas that don't take themselves too seriously (and neither should the viewers!), but not without some genuinely touching moments.

Both have a really similar premise: both are about dudes who used to be popular in the music field and both move from the city to the countryside where they adjust to the different lifestyle and eventually fall in love.

I'm not suggesting these two because they're similar. Not at all. The plot is completely different. But it gives you the same vibe. What I find it similar is that the main actress is a single mom with one kid. They are both funny and worth watching.

It's not because of the stories but impressions that give you these dramas are very much alike. Just normal, simple stories. No melodrama, no ridiculously vicious characters, no disasters that come to main character one after another. Watching these dramas will make you smile and laugh a little, sometimes little sad. Light and bright plots about real life problems.

the plot itself of "top star going to a tiny village full of lovable characters for whatever reason and learning the true meaning of life/ getting back to his roots" is identical

I recommend this both drama because , Male lead and Female lead
try to solve problem
In one drama explosion and another student murder/suicide

Male friends living and working together to succeed in life. Both dramas have normal cozy life which you can relate to. Riders is dealing with many typical Korean and probably many other countries' issues like how to find a good job and partner when there is pressure from parents and money trouble. Dramas about friendship and things in life which are truly important and meaningful. These dramas are not that serious as I made them sound like, there are many funny scenes as well.

Chief Kim and Modern Farmer, both have a big ensemble cast that you can't help but love each and every character! Their main theme is comedy and there's a lot of it (but they don't have the same kind of humor imo)

Leaving the city to live in the countryside, finding oneself, food, hilarious moments, friendship and a dash of a love story.

Actually these two dramas were compared in another place. Both have city people coming to farm as an idea to become rich fast after they inherited the farm from relatives. Characters are somewhat similar, at first annoying bratts but then very warm hearted. Modern Farmer is very humorous while Vineyard Man is a bit more emotional. Good family and community related stories. Vineyard Man has a really good and sweet ending.

Both drama revolve around the topics
Music and rural life, love and finding your path in life. What makes you happy in life?
(Though Modern Farmer is more of a comedy while My Husband Oh Jak Doo is more of a melo)

both have funny characters in addition to the main cuple, they have not the typical story of romance, maybe some love triangle but without becoming awkward to watch.
