Both are short, fluffy rom-coms set in high school.

- FL is shy, not well-known in her class until she gets approached by the ML
- ML has a facade he's presenting to the world but is different inside
- love triangle where both ML and SML fall first for the FL
- pretend relationship (fake dating in BM, fake confession in SSC101)

Both involve:
+ older, more disillusioned FL with a younger, sweet ML
+ ML is head-over-heels in love and devoted
+ both have travel/vacation as a theme
+ terminal illness as a major theme (for the FL in SoaW, for the ML in CHFiL)

Scent of a Woman is a full-length kdrama with more serious, melodrama themes while Can't Help Falling in Love is a Filipino romantic comedy movie with a lighter tone.

Both are light-hearted romcoms with a similar premise and tone.

+ the ML has a weakness to which the FL is his only cure/exception
+ rich/popular ML with a poor/hardworking FL
+ ML falls first and chases first
+ ML is sweet and a bit awkward, not as cold/arrogant as the usual rich MLs

Sm:)e is longer and has more depth. It focuses on the entertainment industry and both leads are actors, while in LMiTD only the SML is an actor while the ML is a CEO businessman.

The two shows have a similar odd premise...
+ one of the leads has a supernatural affliction that makes them transform when they come into contact with another person
+ the other lead's kiss is the "cure" to this affliction, and the transformed lead tries to seek skinship or close contact with them to fix their problem
+ both are fluffy romcoms set partly in the workplace

In AGDtBaD, the FL transforms into a dog after she accidentally kisses the ML. She has to kiss him again to reverse the process.
In LMiTD, the ML transforms into another person when someone touches him for more than 5 seconds. He has to kiss the FL in order to transform back into himself.

Differences:
- AGDtBaD is a full length kdrama while LMiTD is a mini-series cdrama
- ML falls first and chases first in LMiTD, reversed in AGDtBaD

Both are thrillers with romance as a heavy theme.

+ strong, anti-hero MLs with a murderous, vengeful side when provoked
+ warm but headstrong and emotionally intelligent FLs
+ the person who raised the FL (her father in W, older brother in TSHLYE) has a very complicated antagonistic relationship with the ML
+ intense plot, both had me on the edge of my seat at times and gasping

W has a fantasy/transmigration element while TSHLYE leans more into the mystery/crime genre.

Similar in tone and both are easily watchable, light-hearted fantasy historical rom-coms.

In both dramas, one lead needs the other to fall in love so that they can extract an important artifact/substance from their bodies. In TPatW, the ML has to get a pearl from the FL through true love's kiss. In SoL, the FL needs to get a love-dependent fragrance from the ML.

other similarities...
+ human x non-human romance
+ ML falls first and is totally smitten
+ very sweet, devoted, puppy love ML
+ FL is the more dominant one in the relationship, makes the decisions
+ one lead holds the other captive in their home

Similar themes in these dramas, they are both modern era romance melodramas concerning rich people, business inheritance, and family politics. In both:

+ FL is betrayed by the people she trusts most, including her cheating fiance/husband
+ FL is an heiress to a wealthy company
+ ML helps the FL get revenge on the people who wronged her
+ ML is totally smitten, falls first and confesses first
+ The plot is largely about avenging the wrongs against the FL and getting justice
+ FL is often in need of rescue but is also trying to become stronger and defend herself

Forever Love is shorter than PMR and less complicated. PMR has a time travel aspect also.
