Call It Love (2023)

From how FL is a temporary worker to how she communicates with her coworkers, her initial revenge plot against him and how she sees ML to be an actually nice, patient man… tons of similarities. Hope this drama is just as good!!

It was about the lives of 3 siblings and their own personal struggles. Being an introvert, this drama felt too relatable, The characters here are mostly solemn, depressed, and disappointed with the life they live. Still, there's something inspiring about the way their stories evolve and something honest about how imperfect they all were without being too sad. CALL IT LOVE gave me alil bit of MY LIBERATION NOTES VIBES

In both dramas the leads going though the hardship of life and feel loneliness till they meet each other and start healing.

Lonely people trapped in their circumstances, finding love with a spring backdrop define both of these.

The subtlety and intentionality in direction, the framing, and in acting as feelings unfold between the leads feels reminiscent in each.

The FL is also bold and outspoken in comparison to a more subdued and reserved ML in both.

Just gives off the same vibes. Melancholic, slow, soft, healing with a dash of crazy traumatic background

These dramas feel similar in the way the story is told. Both leads find themselves in each others spheres but they don’t get along. ML both drama quiet and reserved and FL problem solving justice warrior type.

Mature themed but very different dramas
call it love has angst and is more melo
but the directing is similar and very slow paced with slow conversations

Same melancholic mood. In both shows it's portrayed how lonely and miserable the leads live/feel on a daily basis until they meet each other.
