Both used flashbacks that would make you eagerly wait for that specific scene, eagerly wait for what caused it, what was done in order to end up with that kind of event. Both fights for the throne ( therefore both are of royal blood ), thought of strategies. Both male leads love the female leads and the female leads was also once affectionate to the second male lead at first, although in Empress Ki it's much deeper. A secret letter was also involved in both dramas and both female leads were chosen by the deities to have it fall in their hands. ( oooops, I used deities, hahaha, too much saeguk i guess. Haha. )

Based on same king Jungjong and his time period . This drama show us the timeline of same king. This drama shows the same period after the king Jungjong takes his reign and that society . So it is pretty much similar if anybody interested in that king and his lifetime.

"Queen for Seven Days" revolves around the tragic love story of Queen Dan Kyung and King Jung Jong during the Joseon Dynasty, focusing on the challenges they faced due to political strife, betrayal, and tragic circumstances. It's set in historical Korea and portrays the struggles of characters within the monarchy. It's similar to One and Only in the sense that they're both historical dramas.

In both dramas the kings and the princes are in a love triangle with the female leads.

Not as lighthearted but still amazing. Actors = amazing, plot = amazing, OST = amazing. Definitely recommend this saeguk.

Both stories shares a similar story that one can't help noticing a lot of similarities between them, as in the focus on Queen Dangyeong.

Will they meet and love each other again despite the intrigue, their families, and the main lead's desire for revenge? Between love, hate, manipulation and revenge, who will win?

The second female lead, who was in love with Yi Yeok in Queen for 7 Days, reminds me so much of Kim Hwa Gun in Emperor: Owner of the Mask, who was also in love with Crown Prince Lee Sun.
