Falling before Fireworks (2023)

The characters are extremely similar. FL is clever, independent, confident and desperate for marriage while ML is shy, calm, working from home and end up being a househusband after getting married. Both of the couple chemistry are great and their scene are making me kicking in the air. Super fluffy!

ML and FL married early on
Relationship progression after marriage

Heritage & cultural background

FL is a city girl, and is more aggressive than the guy, makes the first move but... :)

ML is a guy living in the countryside. Guy is calm, good with traditional work & hard labor. ML is also not what he seems to be at first glance.

Also, cute pets.
One drama has puppies.
The other has ducks.

FL is a city girl coming to countryside.

ML is a guy living in the countryside.
Both MLs in these dramas are not what they seem at first glance.

Both has great romcom vibes!

Let’s just say both male leads have this high spirit in maintaining cultural heritage. Both live in similar village and both have a strong will to work on the artifacts and love culture…
Both cute anyway^^

Both have similar settings and vibe:
- Both FL is a successful career woman in big city
- Both ML has abandonment issue
- Both ML have a career in small town and live a simple life
- Both FL end up starting their career in small town after being together with ML
- Both are healing drama with village settings

Focuses around preserving Chinese culture--if you like/want to learn more about crafts and history, Hi Producer revolves around that theme. It is not a romance driven drama but when I watched this I thought of Hi Producer's intention to celebrate and preserve Chinese arts and architecture.
