A bubbly simple romantic story between an author and his editor.
Why would I put this up on recommendation list if it doesn't have any similarity to the plot of YYXH.
Well the reason being, if you haven't have enough of male lead and female lead's chemistry, check out their modern drama!
- the ml, fl and sml are same actors in both the stories.
- it is a sweet romance story with healing elements (venturing into relation between parents and child, and relation between two former work partners), so if you need a light romcom watch with healing genre!
- the drama doesn't follow the typical misunderstanding plots, though some of the actions of the main leads can be childish and funny, they handle their relation very maturely, not allowing any misunderstanding, so misunderstanding troupe haters, voila, you have a recommendation on your list.

Both leads work together in some entertainment field and dislike each other immediately. Neither knows that they are online confidents and friends. Both MLs find out the FLs' identity first and keep it a secret for a while.

Moonlight is another drama that talks about the relationship between a rookie editor and a best-selling author. ML is an author and FL an editor.

It's the same type of love story (editor x author), but this has a sexual side to it. It's a nice show to watch when you're bored and it doesn't take that long to watch. It takes about 3 hours to finish.

- ML has an ego, always says mean things but is actually sweet
- ML is well-known and praised in his industry
- FL is a newcomer but tries her best and is good at her job
- FL is sweet and understanding but will not compromise
- ML and FL work together and start living together
- There is some sabotage in the workplace and there is a major competing company
- ML and FL originally had a misunderstanding
- ML quite obviously starts liking FL first (at least from the viewer's POV)

Now that I think of it the vibes (esp of the main cp) are really the same for both...can't believe I only now realized. You will definitely like the other if you liked this drama. LIS is on my top 5 of 2020 and Moonlight is on my top 5 of 2021. Second CP is completely opposite though.

Both have a sweet FL trying to make it in a new career path and circumstances that lead to cohabitation with the ML.
Recommended by Hagichan
Both MLs are popular authors, both have an online connection with the FLs, both MLs find out the true identity of FLs first and keep it to themselves. MLs fall in love first, while FL likes somebody else. There's plenty of friendly bantering in both relationships. Both are sweet dramas.

Similarities:
- author-editor relationship (in SITT FL is copy editor)
- FL is bubbly and passionate
- ML is egotistic
- ML has broken relationship with father and father is a great writer

Differences:
- SITT is much more dark, slower paced, focused on character development
- SITT ML is more immature (although ML in Moonlight isn't very mature either)

How do I put this... these dramas give of similar vibes. When you're watching one you think, "This seems like the other.."

- Both have a popular/famous ML who falls for their assistant. In Moonlight it's his editor, and in Assistant of Superstar it's his assistant/tutor.
- Both MLs fall for the FL quite quickly, which causes many jealousy scenes to occur.
- The similarity between the ML's in these shows is uncanny. They are so cute and childish once they fall for the FL.
- Both the ML's save the FL from distress
- In both, the leads end up living with the MLs and they don't want them to leave. (super cute)

The vibes between these shows are so alike. If you like one, you might like the other as well, definitely recommend.

similarities:
- ML and FL are online friends (even though Double Love is through a game while Moonlight is through a forum/chat)
- ML knows FL identity before FL knows ML identity
- FL admires ML's bestfriend
- FL is just starting off (and excelling) in the industry while ML is famous in the same industry
- FL respects the ML's identity in the industry
- ML does not have a positive relationship with parents

differences:
- different industry (movie/acting industry vs publishing industry)
-FL personalities are pretty different (Double Love FL is fire-y , Moonlight FL is bubbly). Both are stubborn and full of passion, but it's different.
- Double Love has a really nice brother-sister dynamic
- Moonlight ML's best friend has deep-love/complicated-history second CP storyline
- Moonlight has business sabotage as major part of storyline
