This drama is also Doctor Cha the FL goes back to same college as her son after divorce at age of 38-year-old.
Similar in terms of achieving lost dreams. A women after suffering in life, restart her life, by finishing college and getting a job while struggling in love, life and family.
Navillera, is uncannily similar to this series, as it talks about lost dream, struggle and pressure faced by society, for a crime you were never a culprit of.

These show have a similar premise of a FL having to give up enrolling into university because of life circumstances, leaving the ML alone after highschool and meeting him up again many years later. The plots do get developed differently though.
In both dramas:
- in highschool the ML had a crush on the FL even if he never confessed;
- ML and FL lose contact after highschool and met much later on;
- ML has now a successful career;
- FL had a promising future when in highschool, but she couldn't pursue her dreams and is now in an unhappy situation;
- ML is quite childish and petty, but genuinely wants the FL to grow into her full potential
Differences:
- ML/FL relationship in highschool is a rivarly in Hello Again! and frienship in Twenty Again;
- in Hello Again! the FL has to give up university due to some family debts. In Twenty Again the FL needs to leave before graduation due to getting pregnant;
- the time jump from highschool to present day is of 10 years in Hello Again! and 20 years in Twenty Again;
- in Twenty Again, the FL is married and has a grown son. Her husband complains about her not being educated enough and wants a divorce, which propels her to enroll in the same university where the ML now teaches;
- in Twenty Again the ML is bitter towards the FL once they meet again due to his first love being completely crushed by her marrying another guy. In Hello Again! the ML is warmer and more supporting towards the FL right away;
- in Hello Again! we have more of an workplace setting, while in Twenty Again we see more of the university life.

The guy's character frequently offers his help and care for the girl. Both drama was so heartwarming. The guy feels sad for the girl for her misfortune, and tries to make her days better. Both possesses slice of life kind of drama which are relatable.
The romance and comedy is just fantastic.
I would rewatch these two!

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.
Both dramas deal with the female lead growing into herself/finding herself. Also, in both, the female leads have to deal with a hostile working/school atmosphere, are faced with being older than everyone else and have family that doesn't support her dream.
The male leads in both are sweet and funny, not like the usual jerk leads. Finally, both dramas are light and funny, with a lot of heartwarming moments.

In both shows...
1) Female lead missed out on her youth (though for very different reasons).
2) Female lead tries to figure out her place in the world and, as such, go through an identity crisis.
3) A situation forced the female lead to give up on her dream. For Twenty Again it was dancing, for Thirty but Seventeen it's playing the violin.
4) Female lead still have a "high schooler" personality, though it's more natural in Thirty But Seventeen than in Twenty again.
5) Female lead met the Male lead when they were young (highschool).
6) Female lead was Male lead's first love.
7) Male leads are both emotionally stunted.
8) Both series are lighthearted but so far Thirty but Seventeen's story is superior.
