In Dugu the family was persecuted while in Weiyoung a marshal from the Chiyun clan was driven by greed and turned her entire families clan into a bloodbath. Which forced her to survive on her own. Like Dugu who is independent and strong, Weiyoung is the same, she is able to avoid all the enemies evil plans to harm against her. Dugu's husband is a warrior who aims to rise as emperor, while Weiyoung's Tuoba Jun doesn't care about royal politics, but targeted by the emperor's sons. After these two meet, she is able to gain wisdom, and was finally able to find peace for her family while finding love at the same time

In both dramas lead actor is Tiffany Tang, who acts a serious but easy going/fun loving person. The dramas' story are similar because main character (acted by a Tiffany Tang) uses someone else's name to go to a family either to find someone or take revenge. Both drama are really strict to the point but with a twist of Tiffany Tang's character's humor. Which allows both dramas to be suspenseful in a good way. Tiffany Tang's historical dramas takes creativity and romance to another level.

Both have good leading character female leads . Also revolves around both leads love triangle but end up making sacrifices for the nation. They are yet similar but different at the same time and have a very different story line. Where The Princess Wei Young revolves around mainly 1 dynasty where as Princess Jieyou revolves around alliances with neighboring countries/dynasties .

The romance of the these two dramas are really similar; enemies fall in love with the same girl. Both female leads are smart and can help the male leads become the next king.

Although it’s been a while since I’ve watched both of these dramas, I remember both of them giving me similar vibes and plots.
- The lead couple are both strong and smart.
- Girl starts off by denial and hatred towards the male lead.
- Their chemistry is amazing!
- Both have a similar yet different ending (I liked Legend of Fu Yao’s ending better).
- I can’t remember everything, but you will definitely like this Legend of Fu Yao if you liked The Princess Weiyoung.

They are both period dramas with lovely misunderstandings and heartbreaks that will make you cry and afterwards you will be wandering around to find a drama to replace this one!

In the late Joseon dynasty, counterfeits were circulating around. Detective Ahn of Left Security Station and a passionate newcomer, Nam Sun, try to trace the source of the counterfeiting. They chase the Secretary of National Security and his man 'Sad Eye' as suspects. A predestined battle between the best woman detective in Joseon, Nam Sun, and a mysterious assassin 'Sad Eye' is unfolded. A magnificent, chivalric film that showcases Lee's style

Great love plays the first role here. In every drama of this type we also have unheard-of accidents, betrayals, lies, pain and suffering. To deal with this, the main characters sometimes have to sacrifice something more than just themselves, but also others. Will they manage to find real love? Both series strive to fulfill this prophecy.

This are similar because they both are in the historical time of China as well they both are plan around the royal court. Also they show that the main female character as a strong person. As well that the main male character where a part of the royal court . Also there love story is very similar in different ways .

The plot is quite similar. It is about a girl who was a princess, but her family was betrayed and defamed. She acquires the identity of someone else and makes her way into the palace to try and clear the name of her people. She meets the crown prince and falls in love with him. They go through many trials to be together. While there is no cross dressing it might be a drama many who like Love in the Moonlight would enjoy.

Three sisters fight for royalty, power and pride.
Eldest sister wanted the Queen's throne.
Second eldest wanted someone that loves the main female lead.
Youngest is studious, willing to stand her ground.
