Cruel Love (2007)

Both are melodramas with female lead having a relationship with both brothers with a tragic past and long time spam.

No wonder they have many similarities in the story
they have the same screenwriter
Both are very enjoyable
Bad Love is on the light side, while Phoenix is on the heavier side

One or both leads trying to recover from the wound caused by their past love
Their second chance at love is forbidden by their unfortunate circumstances
Leads from rich families
Great chemistry
ML chases FL first
Both dramas aired around the same time therefore having similar feel and quality

Both have KSW and both are great love stories. However, bad love doesn't have the same hatred. Lol

Hikon as cruel love has cheating, ex-comes back and complicated love relationships,

Spoiler:

Pregnancy/abortion etc

obsessive love at it peak...the male leads are pretty similar plus one of them is a pop star while the other is a rich heir...both females have gone through a lot
