-Similar psychological twists. This is mostly where the similarities lie, and why I love these so much... they are what makes the dramas so GOOD!!
-The Light In Your Eyes is much darker, starts off happy.
-Its Okay, That's Love is fluffier, happier and overall much more of a crowd-pleaser, TLIYE is like marmite-you love it, or you hate it.
-Can't remember for TLIYE, but IOTL has a great strong female lead.

They are similar in the fact that they are time travel dramas that utilize a watch as the trigger for time travel. Many more similarities but watching "The Light in Your Eyes" is the key to figuring that out.

both drama hold the same feeling to them showing the passage of time and the importance of the relationships we create during our lives. the light in your eyes tends to be more lighthearted and fun but memory doesnt lose in terms of being heartwarming. Family plays an important role in both drama. And you will probably cry while watching them.

Josee has the same lead actors as the light in your ayes and also has parts where you wonder what is real and what is not. Both deal with disability in one way or another however the light in your ayes is more direct and has an ending that is not up for interpretation.

Son Ho Jun does a great job in the supporting role for The Light in Your Eyes. If you really liked him in Go Back Couple, you might want to watch it as well. TLIYE also deals with time changes and familial relationships.

Despite them being opposite they are both similar, in the light in your eyes the main character’s appearance changes from a 25 year old woman to an elderly woman, In Sumika Sumire she turns from a 65 year old woman into a girl in her early 20’s they are both very similar in the aspect of fantasy and Romance, both have elements of time travel

The first 9 episodes of The Light In Your Eyes are very similar in tone to My Mister. There's a certain destitution and downtrodenness, but at the same time, the show has moments of levity and emphasizes genuine human connections and relationships. The characters in both shows feel real, but they also both feel quite suffocated.

Both dramas are fantasy genres about characters who have ability to manipulate with time. ............
