These are both Kim Tae Ri dramas where she is talented in a skill and works her way up to be well known in that particular skill (gukgeuk in Jeongnyeon, fencing in 2521). In both dramas, she has a female rival who seems to have more professional training than her at the beginning of the show. The rivals in both shows initially hate Kim Tae Ri's characters, but Kim Tae Ri's characters and the rivals eventually overcome their differences to form a friendship.

Both are stories of talented women and how they thrive in the mainly female organizations that they joined. In these organizations, they gain friends and rivals. While Jeongnyeon joined the female gukgeuk organization, Jang Geum joined the palace maid/cook female organization and then later on the became one of the female nurses in the palace (Jang Geum gained a best friend and a rival in both her palace maid/cook years as well as her nurse/medicine years).

Both What Comes after Love and Alone/Together depict couples, contrasting their college/young adult idealistic lives in contrast to wondering about their "what ifs" and meeting again as older professionals about 5 years after they break up. The main couples seem to have other people they are either dating/considering dating but they still deeply love each other and thus a meeting 5 years later as career professionals made them question about their life's decisions in the past.

Both shows are about women who dreams to become a great artist/performer. The major differen ce though is that Hwang Ji Ni also focuses on the lovelife of the female lead while living as an artist/performer while Jeong Nyeon doesn't seem to be that way.

Both are historical dramas from the Philippines and both are drama offerings from the same network GMA during the early 2020s. The actors of the four main characters of Maria Clara at Ibarra also all appear in Pulang Araw (though Julie Anne San Jose is just a cameo in the first episode of the latter drama while Dennis Trillo is a villain in the latter drama and only started appearing between episodes 15 and 20). Despite the major differences in their stories, both portray the real life struggles Filipinos face during the time periods each drama portrays and they also both portray the bravery and strength of Filipinos in overcoming their struggles.

=> Both dramas are about strong and capable female leaders
=> Both dramas are set in Goguryeo during the Three Kingdoms Period of Korean history (rarely do we get Goguryeo setting kdramas so this similarity is quite special).
