"Behind your Smile" is a thriller with romantic elements, just like WTPR. The ML in this story is like Baek Sa Eon rather cold and dark. However, he is obsessed with revenge and wants to get back at the FL who is very innocent and naive. Their relationship slowly changes. The drama is mainly carried by Marcus Chang's acting and his amazing chemistry with his co-star.
It has the same rough storyline: a male lead plotting revenge against the female lead’s mother/father and using her to accomplish that, ends up falling in love with her. However, the personalities of the main characters are not at all alike and You complete me is more business/office oriented. Still, if you like that theme, you may want to try watching either of them ;)
In Behind Your Smile Zhao Yiting only sees his revenge, but ends up falling for Lei Xinyu in the process. However, Another Miss Oh Park Do-kyung gets his revenge on his runaway bride, but finds out he is mistaken and has spoiled another woman's wedding. He gets entangled in her life and ends up falling for her.
