Both:
- historical fiction (one set in Joseon, the other encompasses late 80s to present time)
- a drama about POWER acquisition, revenge and the seek for truth
- not focused on romance but there are love lines and not everyone was thrilled for that part of the story
- great performance from veteran actors (Kim Hyesoo and Lee Sungmin)

both are:
- korean dating shows
- beach summer setting
- 5 female participants & 4 male participants at the start of the show
- panel reacting like any other show

differs that
- Love Catcher in Bali involves money.
- In Single's Inferno, they have chances to enjoy Paradise (a premium hotel) as long as there the two parties have chosen each other. Besides exposure and fame, these are the monetary equivalent a participant can gain in the show.

- first love got interrupted then fast forward to them as adults
- music as part of their love story
- sign language is featured in both (but more in Silent)
- Kaho getting in between the main couple

Their story revolves around a minor and an older guy living together & having a unique relationship.

Same slice of life but the friendship from the last episode of Kamiki no Satsukyu is not just similar in actors but the way they were interacting each other is similar to the friendship they had in Konto Ga Hajimaru but with Suda Masaki.

Similarities:
- 'The beginning is the beginning of an end, meetings are always accompanied by partings and love like a party will always end at some point. ' This quote is interpreted differently by the two, though.
- earphones
- relationship started out of common interests

Different stories

Different stories.
IHYV has more comedy elements meanwhile SIY has a heavier melancholic atmosphere throughout the drama.

Both:
- gave the same message about revenge
- have a crime that occurred in the past that have been the driving point of the story and how the male and female lead had their connection

similarities
- main characters who have are in a 'closer than friends less than lovers' /'almost lovers' relationship
- one has participated in a dating show

differences
- ML in Love is for Suckers has always been there for the FL and she is the reason why he participated in the show; whilest in Bakayarou no Kiss, he just saw her on TV after she left the ML's hometown (she always transfers school, that's why they had to separate)

Aside from the similar brand of comedy these dramas have, I see a common character in Baek Ma Tan of Gaus Electronics and Shibata Ken of Mr. Nietzsche in the Convenience Store. Both are both new employees who are ineptly hiding their wealthy background. These dramas are both hilarious so I recommend both if you liked the other drama.

Similarities:
- people wanting to dethrone a royalty
- evil Queen Dowager & state councilor
- strong friendship between a royalty and a subject
- less focus on romance
- engaging story line
- excellent performance of the actors

Differences:
- the story

The Crowned Prince (TCC) is that first sageuk that made me interested in watching such dramas. I usually watch sageuk dramas just to pass time but most do not hold a candle to TCC. (BTW I do not consider Alchemy of Souls as a sageuk drama because it has fantasy elements.) Now, after watching the 4 episodes from Under The Umbrella, I would say TCC has competition.

They have completely different stories but the romance in Gaus Electronics kinda remind me of the one in Love & Leashes. In addition, there's this scene and situation from Gaus Electtronics Ep 8 reminiscent of L&L. If you like office romance, you'll probably like both.

20th Century Girl (2CG) and Our Beloved Summer (OBS) is similar such that both have these elements:
- first love
- male leads are best friends both liking the female lead
- high school setting with their adult lives
- love triangle
- filming & broadcast as occupation/passion

Differences:
- length: 2CG is a movie while OBS is a drama
- the plot
