Both have a very mature storyline centering a grown woman who is having a hard time finding herself. They feature growth and both have their own shining points.

Both dramas revolve around cheating partners. In both dramas, female leads are very powerful.

The First Half of My Life tells the story of an affluent carefree housewife, Luo Zi Jun who is blindsided by her husband's betrayal. Faced with heartbreak, divorce and child custody issues, Luo Zi Jun develops the fortitude and strength to face the struggles of being a single parent as she enters the "real world." This drama depicts the story of a bittersweet yearning of love, understanding, and repentance. In my opinion, the impressive acting, character development, dialogue, and story equal, if not surpass The World of the Married.

-Both have strong female leads who are very competent in their careers
-Both deal with the aftermath of infidelity and getting revenge on a cheating partner, although She Would Never Know seems more focused on romance, where The World of the Married is more dark and focused on the revenge aspect
-Both involve possessive/obsessive male leads
-Both have workplace love interests
