Second season more love cutness and great if you want to see what happens next!
sequel 2 it started with a kiss and i thought nothing could've topped off ISWAK but apparently TKA exceeded all my expectations!!
if you cried, laughed and fell inlove on the It Started with a Kiss, you MUST watch the sequel They Kiss Again! It will double what you have experienced at the first drama!!!
ISWAK is a legend for this kind of genre. School and one-sided love chase of a girl to a boy who is out of her league. But as they say...opposite attracts!

This is the original Taiwanese version. There's more back story and there's a second part!
Similar plot..in both series the main leads end up living together because of some circumstances ; one of them can't stand the other one; both series start with "a letter of love", both girls are naive when it comes to love, etc.
the main females like the male main and slowly change his heart. Joe Cheng is the main lead for both dramas. Xia Ya and Danson were in Summer x Summer and ISWAK2.
Similar setting, FL is madly in love with ML and chases after him... ...........................................................................................................................

Both dramas show young love, where one of the leads has an unrequited love for the other since they were students Their love is not mutual at first, however, as the story goes, they open up and start loving each other both show school days and dramas too
taiwanese version~~ it's the same history with little changes. i think it's more funny too haha~~
The main couple end up under the same roof. Both of the main leads have great chemistry. It is light, cute & sweet.
Similarity: Both FL are dumb & Super cute Both ML are smart & handsome They both are high school classmates ML taught lectures to FL who is poor at classwork and FL finally got better a lot... Both FL have a crush on ML Both ML like FL but rarely express his feeling Both ML always treat FL as a stupid one and it makes the drama quite funny Both finally got married & happy ever after

The storyline and romance does take time to develop. They both have amazing character development from the male leads. I also feel (in my opinion) that the relationship and character developments were natural and organic. They actually interact with one another more than once! Both female leads are naive at times, but over time you can't help but love them. We also can see both male lead's emotions throughout the series (how they feel with not only the female lead, but how they feel in certain situations).
Both drama has the same men leader Joe Cheng. Female lead are very funny and unlucky but at the end they can get their love.
It has the same story, it's another live action of the same manga.
