These two dramas have in common is that the male leads are both top math instructors at an academy. The difference is, in Crazy Love, the male actor is involved with his secretary, while in Crash Course in Romance, the male actor is involved with one of his students' parents.

Both include:

- similar comedy styles
- non-biological mother and daughter relationship
- Sweet romance
- Ahjumma style main lead

not sure yet but similar feel, pastel colours clash with bright colours, noona romance, comebacks for renowned actresses,..

Both shows deal with scandal in the education system. This is even more scandalous than un Crash Course in romance as they show actual cheating in favor of the kids at school.

They both show parents perverting the system so that their children get better treatment

There is romance between teenagers as well as between adults.

- FL is a single mother and business owner
- ML is a well-known persona within the town
- Small town setting with a murder mystery side plot
- Generally lighthearted and comedic tone containing heartwarming central theme of family

the main plot is different. but, the subplot about "special preparation class" reminds me of sky castle. and bang sua character is the walmart version of kang yeseo lol

In an interview after Once Again, Yang Hee Seung refers to A Wife's Credentials as her life drama. Both dramas are interested in the endlessly competitive nature of entrance exams and the warlike private education industry.

Both MLs are incredibly smart and excel at what they do. FLs are bright and cheerful people. MLs have a close friend or relative that would do anything for them. The supporting characters are also very fun to watch in both series.

both dramas take place with teachers/instructors as the main characters while one is a romance and the other is more of a slice of life i think that they are similar enough character wise that the same audience might enjoy them both

Same plot. Popular but snobby teacher (male lead) at a special training center fall in love with female lead who is one of the newer teachers.

When I was watching CCIR, I couldn't help but get reminded of He Is Psychometric! Both of them are a perfect balance of romcom and mystery/thriller, there aren't a lot of shows like this, but I've figured that it's quickly becoming one of my favourite genres.

HIP however is a bit more fantasy oriented since the male lead has a superpower, but the whole "big city mystery" vibe is quite similar in both shows.

If you enjoyed CCIR, you are sure to enjoy HIP and vice versa!
