Both are adorable endearing feel good shows where the couples are so sweet that you can get cavities from watching them. Though Louie is always super sweet from beginning to the end and Woo Jin was a kind person when he was young, but a trauma made him hard and avoid others, they both eventually become super sweet BFs. Both couples have great chemistry and both shows leave you feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. They are my two top warm-hearted, light funny romantic comedies. Both female leads are looking for a beloved missing relative and end up finding the male leads instead and they form their own makeshift family.
-In both, male lead had an accident for the succession for a conglomerate.
-After accident, male lead gets picked up by female lead without her knowing of his identity.
-The rich male lead lives a poor life with a poor, hard-working female lead and causes her troubles everyday.
-Most importantly, male lead suffers with amnesia so he forgets about himself and about his identity.
-While living together and even having different background, male and female lead falls in love with each other.

These dramas are both innocent cohabitation stories, and it's very focused on the main characters and their feelings, which was the best part in my opinion. I often dislike it when dramas try to cram so much into the story that they neglect to develop the main story, the reason why people watch in the first place. There's lots of cute moments in both stories, but they're realistic and not diabetes inducing or forced. I highly recommend them both, and if you liked one, I'm sure you'll like the other! :))
Different country but the storyline is actually quite similar! Both leads are rich (hot) heirs but have 'something' that happen to them and their families try to search for them. Both dramas have an ajusshi who wants to prevent the leads from meeting their families. Both dramas have the lead guy fall in love with a country-side girl early in the series. Both series have the leading girl help the lead guy adjust to the new environments. Both dramas have super cute romance/ comedy scenes.
Okay, I admit it, these stories are nothing alike...BUT both have a second ML who's eccentric yet downright adorable!
In Shopping King Louis Cha Joong Won (portrayed by Yoon Sang Hyun) is a stylish, yet gruffy, city bachelor. In My Husband Oh Jak Doo, Eric Cho (portrayed by Jung Sang Hoon) is an insecure US-schooled parvenu who wants to earn prestige for his father's business.
Both actors play these roles with heart and humor and (even if both dramas also have pretty strong first MLs as well) they both often end up stealing the show.
These two second male leads fall in love with their respective dramas' FLs, but even if their feelings remain unrequited they support the women they love. They also begrudgingly form a sort of bromancy relationship with the MLs.
The only reason why I didn't suffer from SLS in neither of these shows is because I didn't want the FLs to steal these two...I mean...they are obviously both mine!
