Both dramas deal about strong independent, cold women, that have one goal and kind of play a double edged sword. At the one hand they can ruin their company, at the other hand they can bring it to success. Both women are accompanied by males that try to help them with achieving their goals.

Both dramas take place in the media world and in both dramas there is a very similar character. While in Big Issue the female lead represents someone cold and goal oriented, Pinocchio has the same character but as the female lead's mother, who is also focused on her goals and thus makes some very immoral decisions. Both dramas focus furthermore on a male character, whose family was destroyed by the media/his job in the media world.

The Guardians isn't about journalist or paparazzi but they have the same point, they told a story about a team who work together, very professional (hacker, cameraman, etc...).
And beside, the female character at first hates the male character very much, she wants to revenge, but then they understand each other and become friends

Both are workplace dramas about journalism, Argon about a news station and Big Issue about magazine journalists.
No romance in either, both centered around the boss-employee relationship between male & female lead.

Feel so similar. Cold Woman/Warm Man, Bad Woman/Good Man. The female character is beautiful, intelligent, badass but evil (but actually deep inside, she is is kindhearted just like SH in Big issues). She loves money and power, she does everything to make a girl work for her. The male lead is warm, kind. They don’t like each other (not really) but then they have to work together. Oh, I forgot, she also has a team to work with her, a bodyguard, a secretary,... I mean it is exactly the same motive with Big issue (but it’s not as good as)

1: fBoth drama are written by the same screenwriter '
Apart from the fact that one is build around politicians and their secrets, and the other about paparazzis and the things they discover, both dramas are extremely similar. From the character similarity of our male leads are nearly identical, both have a trauma from their past and both are at the bottom. Both meet women with a near identical character, and both women play an equal important part. although in Big Issue it is slightly more.
Definitely give the other a try if you like one of them.

Both female leads know more about the male leads than the male leads are aware.
It has so many similarities, apart from the fact that in My Mister we have someone quite broken whereas in Big Issue our female lead managed to rise form that and became someone quite strong.
