You may not see the similarities at the beginning but especially as you near to finish He is Psychometric the two dramas are quite similar.

- both main characters are united by an unfortunate past.
- Many shocking plot twists.

If you enjoyed Pinocchio, give He is Psychometric a shot. :)

- both main male lead separated from their brother
- both main male lead are looking the truth from their past
- both main male lead's brother committed murder
- both female main lead are always on main male lead's side through thick and thin.

- only their type of work are not the same

The female lead is a reporter. Cute couple, happy ending…. Heartwarming, roller coaster drama, tough young woman.. romantic..

I mean they both highlight how media can be used to manipulate the audience. Similar past incidences on how a life has been destroyed by the media due to reckless reporting due to pressure from the higherups.

This is also a lee jong suk drama.The story is much more compelling and competitive.. U will race with the time. Like in W here also the growing romance between the two leads r very much cooler. Also the ending is much more adorable which I felt a little lack in W... Pinocchio really amazing media drama....

Both dramas deal around a murder and journalists going to no ends to talk about it. Both dramas are about a journalist that try to uncover that murder. The question comes up in both drama on how far journalism is allowed to go.

Characters of both dramas found, that every blade has two edges and every thing has two sides and what you give to other people, it can return to you in bad or good meaning. P is for wider audience then PB IMHO.

Both are thrillers and have mystery.
In both a person will be wrongfully accused.
The main couples are both cute and have good chemistry.
They both have a dash of comedy but have serious scenes as well.

The way CITT flows is very similar to that of Pinocchio. I feel it is more story based, gears more on the plot than the romance, where as CITT is more focused on the romance. But both dramas gave me a similar vibe. Not to mention both benefit from attractive main characters ;P

Two people end up working together who live together and have known each other throughout their lives. In both dramas one of the characters has feelings for the other for a very long time. Both couples end up working in the same firm but keep it a secret that they know each other. Both couples develop a relationship and keep also that a secret. Both dramas take place in the media/publishing world.
The biggest difference is that "Pinocchio" has as an additional topic a crime-case while "Romance is a Bonus Book" only focuses on the slice-of-life topic.

Both dramas take place in the media world and in both dramas there is a very similar character. While in Big Issue the female lead represents someone cold and goal oriented, Pinocchio has the same character but as the female lead's mother, who is also focused on her goals and thus makes some very immoral decisions. Both dramas focus furthermore on a male character, whose family was destroyed by the media/his job in the media world.
