both fls face similar situations of exhaustion and making rash life decisions all at once. while love next door is a bit more comedic imo, i think both are wonderful shows that resemble each other.

Childhood friends to lovers...exact same dynamic between the leads!! Context is different: into the ring the leads meet again in the same work environment (politics oriented) Love next door focuses more Abt the leads but each their own struggles in work life and personal life but they meet again cz they live in the same neighborhood
the stars in the ceiling just remind me of them, the protagonist having an illness, both female protagonist have mommy issues and their illness is not taking seriously and/bc of their brother that the mom protects, their family in both cases dont know that the female lead is sick.

Dear My Room

7.6 2018

- The female leads in both dramas had similar experiences with their previous jobs, and both of them struggle to find something that they are passionate about in life. - Both of them have a male childhood friend by their side—the male lead from Love Next Door is an architect, and the male lead from Dear My Room works in interior design. - Both dramas are slice-of-life, but Love Next Door has more humorous moments and a lot of bickering between the main leads, while Dear My Room is more of a relaxing/slowburn drama, with the leads having a calmer relationship. - Both dramas have Yun Ji On as second male lead. Don't be reluctant to watch Dear My Room because of its rating. Personally, I loved it and think it's underrated. It may be rated this way because it’s heavy on slice-of-life and interior design, and the romance progresses slowly. However, it's very relaxing and has become one of my comfort dramas.
