Even if the historical setting is different, both deal with politics, espionage and medical stuff. Different Dreams is about the Korean independence, while Doctor Stranger is about the relationship between North Korea and South Korea.

Same director, same feel (at least for the first episodes of DS). One has a medical-spy plot with political implications, whereas the other concentrates on the political-spy part.

Both involve North and South Korea in conflict. Although there's no monarchy setting, it's very similar that involves melodramatic moments and a deep set conspiracy-kind of theme.

They both have Genius Doctors in it who are working to find someone they loved in the past. I think Doctor Stranger is a little better than Cross both in acting and plot. Definitely check it out if you haven't seen it already. Oh and Lee Jong Suk is in it, so theres that.

The two are similar in their consistent intensity, action, and impossible situations. Doctor Stranger is also nother Lee Jong Suk starring drama, and is also a medical drama, though the medical aspect is much more prevalent than in W.

The plots both involve Surgeons (althougn not heart but instead the brain) and North Korea.

- both the main characters are good at what they do
- both the main characters loved someone they grew up with
- both main characters lives were screwed with by people they knew
- both main charaters were seperated from the ones they loved
- both main characters fathers are dead

A character comes « back to life » and lives near their loved one without him/her knowing it is actually his/her loved one (does it make sense?)

Both deals with north korean spies. And in both dramas the female lead has two options: either deceive her boyfriend and continue as a spy, either betray her boss and fight against the side she was.
