Both dramas are humour driven with an underlining tinge of seriousness. Other similarities are the MLs fight to maintain power as King and how both FLs end up impersonating the Queen of Joseon. In MQ she wakes up in the body of the queen and tries to live as her while figuring out what is going on, while in TFM, she pretends to be a shaman that is possessed by the late crown princesses.
Both deal with love and grief set in the past. Although, AOS has magic both show deal with spirits. Both have serious notes as well moments of sadness. The shows also has have an action component as well. I am currently watching them both and they have a similar vibe.
Similar setup. ML is royalty and bodyguard is best friend. Bodyguard has marriage with officers daughter that gets botched. She assumes a different identify. She helps the prince while in that identity. Potential die love triangle, shaman elements highlighted. Also - Female lead has Supporters who are interesting characters living outside palace. So far though - Our Blooming Youth seems to have less comedic elements.
Both are essentially about court ladies who try their hardest to protect the king and support his reign.

All the gods will be leaving before the last rain of doomsday. However, an ordinary human girl unexpectedly puts a dent in their plans to retreat thus causing the world to move towards the unknown. Based on the animistic mythology of the Amis tribe, the gods are no longer willing to bless the land that is plagued with environmental issues. One by one, the gods depart the world they once loved. A human girl discovers that the opportunity to reverse her destiny lies within herself and her guardian. Before the final day of judgment, a love story between human and god unfolds.
Both dramas have a similar style of comedy despite being in two different settings. The Forbidden Marriage is set in Joseon while A Business Proposal takes place in modern day.
Both the female leads start by deceiving the male lead into thinking that they are someone else, but end up falling in love with them.
Overall both dramas have a very sweet (and slightly spicy) romance

** This is written before I finish watching TFM
Similarities:
- Both are set in historical time but completely fictional (modern day behaviour)
- Have strong comedy borderline parody
- Somehow heavy on political conspiracy
- FL is kind of reckless sometimes rude in both dramas
- ML is nice and understanding
- Love triangle doesn’t work in both
Differences:
- Revers character hierarchy
- TFM is giving strong SML syndrome
- TFM have better romantic chemistry and swoon moments.
