O Drama da Minha Vida (2019)

Both are workplace slice of life but their strength isn't in their setting. it's the storytelling that's done so well.
We get to see not only the main cast, but also the stories of surrounding characters. it may be sad or conflicting, but usually ends in a comforting tone. tears, laughter, awws, and warmth.
in this sense, the rollercoaster of emotions every single episode exactly the same. work setting is just the stage; the essence is in the feelings conveyed that result in feel good vibe by the end of each ep.

-Female centered plot
-Friendship is main
- slice of life
- Romance (male characters playing an important role in their lives)

While Be Melodramatic is a clear slice-of-life, but watching Doom At Your Service (DAYS) gives of that slice-of-life vibes with the fantastical elements. Both dramas are calm and have healing nature tho DAYS is more heavy on that and the melodrama aspects.

Both shed light on common issues and expectations women encounter in the course of work that men rarely have to deal with.

Both works make fun about the current drama tropes and are extra meta to watch.
There's also a blend of the fictional and the real worlds in both dramas -- one character in Be Melodramatic is a drama scriptwriter and it's clear her drama is loosely based on her own story.

Both TV dramas are very nice to look at visually. The stylist did a good job of matching the clothing to the character's personality.
Be Melodramatic is more friendship focused even though there is a love interest but it is not the main point of the story.
Both are comedic as well and not too emotional. I found myself laughing most of the time when watching both dramas

Both dramas are presented with quirky internal and external monologues that create similar comedic vibes.

Other similarities:
- Hate to love developments
- Very honest and outspoken main leads
- Falling in love with people they work with
- Strong/supportive friendships
- Healing character development
- Set in a drama-production environment (main leads are actor+lawyer for Love to Hate you, screenwriter+director in Be Melodramatic)

- strong friendships
- multi main characters
- slice of life
- realistic
- heartwarming
- struggles to become an independent adult

The friendship of the main characters in TBMTQYJ reminds me of the main characters of the BM. Although the former's relationship wasn't as deep as the one in BM, all the characters struggle with living life as independent adults.

Multiple strong female leads & Sismances.

Great writing in both, but Angel Destiny has even better writing.

It gave me the same slice-of-life vibe.
You just see the normal life of normal people, who mostly goes through existencial problem, and somehow begin to go over them because they've been helped by their friends.

It's arround the drama/documentary/filming life too.

Both shows are slow-paced, and it doesn't feel rushed or anything. It just... takes the right amount of times.

Both shows have the capacity to make me cry just by seeing one of the characters on the screen

women centric plots
both the dramas provide answers to some of the questions and problems you might face in life

Lee Byung Hun is the screenwriter and director of both, and Ahn Jae Yong is the ML in them. Chicken Nugget makes some amusing references to Be Melodramatic including playing the Shampoo Song (one of the 7+ versions) from it. There is wacky comedy in both though Be Melodramatic has much more serious content as well, Chicken Nugget sticking to the goofy comedy.

They go through changes after the age of 30 years old from 3 friends as main characters fun to watch.

Be Melodramatic is kinda like the 30 year old vr of Age of Youth? friendship, love and life problems..
