-In Born Again, the leads become reborn and don't remember their previous lives until later in the show. In Goodbye My Princess, the leads meet but then lose their memories of each other, meet again, and then regain those memories towards the end of the show.
-Due to memory loss/being reborn, the female lead forgets that she hates the male lead (for very justifiable reasons)
-a semi-evil male lead who makes decisions against the wishes of the female lead that end up getting her hurt (physically and/or emotionally). Kinda obsessed with revenge on their family. In Born Again the male lead is also a major creep and (unfortunately) sometimes his actions are portrayed as romantic. But both do majorly bad things that are (or at least, should be) pretty unforgivable.
For the record, I think Goodbye My Princess is way better, but it is also quite different in terms of genre and tone. The other recommendations listed are more similar to Born Again.
Born Again (2020)
Similars
Both shows have similar premise - three people whose unfortunate fate is so entangled that it continues to their next life.
Tree of heaven gave me born again vibe: a sad love story, both male leads are broken and both love the girl to death (one sided love at first)
- Os dois tem vidas passadas como um dos principais temas;
- Born Again preferiu ir para o lado dramático tragédia, mas aqui mesmo dramático há muitos tons de comédia.
A TV series centered around the unfolding relationship between free and unpredictable yet dangerous Kim Moo Young, who is called a "monster". He is the first assistant in a Korean beer brewery who becomes a suspect when a woman's suicide turns out to be murder. His life begins to change when he meets a kind, warm advertising designer named Yoo Jin Kang, who wishes to be Moo Young's safe haven. She bears as many emotional scars as him. Yoo Jin Kang also has a brother, a homicide detective named Yoo Jin Gook, with 27 years of job experience. He strives to "reveal" who Moo Young really is and attempts to keep his sister, Jin Kang, away from Moo Young, with whom she begins to know
Jang Ki Yong's past life character in Born Again is similar to Kim Nam Gil's character in Island:
Both are creepy serial killer Male Leads who despite it all, are oddly charming pitiable and full of angst and pain type of characters and in both the female lead shares his pain
Similarities between these two dramas so far include: Jang Ki Yong, a forbidden romance, and serial killing.
Similar in the fact that FL has a great relationship with 1 ML & a second ML, who is so obsessed, thinks stalking is protecting....I guess it is all in how you stalk.....
The story line and the genre is completely different. But there are aspects that are similar. For example the reincarnation aspect. Both are used in both dramas.
In both shows:
> A psychopath hides in plain sight. He has learned to read emotions since he doesn't have feelings.
> Said Psychopath falls in love with the FL and tries to understand her (empathize).
> Psychopath was raised in a disfunctional family and has a difficult relationship with his dad.
> FL is earnest, though a bit useless.
> There is a love triangle.
> Both deal with an aspect of crime.
Differences:
> Beautiful Mind is more character driven whereas Born Again is more plot driven.
> There is more romance in BA but it's built via a cop-out (fate). Whereas in BM the romance isn't the focus, but that and the relationship between the main leads is better built.
> BA focuses on crime from the prosecutor/forensic perspective. Whereas BM focuses on a hospital and a possible crime committed there.
Both Male Leads make you wonder of how dark they actually are. There always seems enough room to still think the best of them, keeping you guessing throughout most of "Born again". Will see how it is going in the currently airing "Flower of Evil".
Let’s just say both are having this ‘time slip’ thingy and the repetitive events. I remember the soul also ‘possess’ another ‘body’ and all those tragedy happening.
(I’m not good at explaining)
Another twisted and not very well outlined plotlines or storylines ... both have weak female leads , who lead on their counterparts and just twisted and messy all around.
Though Voice doesn't have much (or any at all) romantic based plot, Born Again gave me similar vibes that Voice gave me, mainly due to the detective running after the serial killer/main murderer plot. In terms of "special" abilities, Voice has the main character being able to hear tiny sounds whereas Born Again has the three main characters reincarnated (without their memories at first).
Será que depois que morremos tudo acaba ou apenas é o começo? Esses dois dramas abordam reencarnação e expiação dos pecados de uma forma bem envolvente, você vai encontrar também bastante suspense e ação, as histórias são complexas ,vidas são entrelaçadas e problemas e segredos são desenterrados , garanto que irá te entreter afinal são ótimos shows.
