Both have a fun, cartoon-y style. SWBS is def the goofier of the two because of the gangsters, while BIOG is a little darker because of some of the ghost back stories. Both are good if you want something playful.

-Overall very similar vibe
-Both are actually funny, like I-almost-peed-laugh-out-loud-cute-funny
-Guy is chick's boss
-Chick is a badass but gives off a natural vibe of something else (Strong Woman: chick is supa cutesy, Protect the Boss: chick is awkward and cringey but amazing)
-Workplace romance that started from experience with chick kickin' the crap outta some dudes that actually had nothing to do with the workplace and then it does cuz then she's hired and batta-bing batta-boom
-Love triangle-y
-Leading dude is kinda wimpy, but then wants to protect the chick, but then again he's kinda wimpy (he will have his strong moments tho)
-SUCHHH ROM AND SUCH COM (Protect the Boss gets a lot more serious toward the end, whereas even Strong Woman's most dramatic moments had a comedy vibe)
-Lots of powerful quotes
-DANNNNG that chick can speak for herself
-AANND she can hold her own. Yeah that's right male lead, I'm looking at you, that means she's just as fine without you or any man for that matter
-A good female friendship between main character and side character (Protect the Boss has multiple female friendships)
-A funny, awkward butler-y secretary of dude guy
-Guy falls (in love) first

A supernatural cousin to Beautiful Gong-shim where the main character, Bong-soon, finds herself inheriting her ancestor's incredible strength, faces the world with bravery and righteousness and desperate to find a job.

She meets the CEO of the gaming company of her dreams but instead of being offered the job in the planning department, she's being paid a handsome price for being his bodyguard.

1. The actor is cute and is very possessive.
2. It's a cute drama like Stong woman Do Boong Soo, though with a little more tangles.

Leads have super powers, both are based at gaming companies. Both have quirky humor. Both have OTT violence. Watch for Lee Dong Wook.
Recommended by StormDiaboli
Both has a controlling obsessive male lead (even though their characters are different). Both have a female lead that is outgoing, bright, and a act first, think later type mentality. The relationship between the main CP in both is CEO + worker.
Recommended by ZhanShin_Eli
Both are spoofs of the superhero genre with a lead who has a power. Both involve comedic crooks and mobsters as the villains.

Comic book vibes. Main character (ML or FL) has superpower while the other main character is an ordinary human who knows their secret and loves them. Quirky FL and vibe with some darker tones.
Recommended by emeraldarrows
1.The FL is strong in both the dramas.
2.The FL loves the second ML at the start of the drama and finds the ML irksome.
2.The second ML is a police officer and loves the FL.

The lead couple in both these shows have so much chemistry! Min Hyuk (SWDBS) and Tae Woon (School 2017) are perfect boyfriend material.

The shows also have mystery aspects to them.
Recommended by scarletlover1
FL has superpowers, similar to The Atypical Family
There is a romance between her and ML
