Both revolve around a girl who likes a guy and boy doesn't like her...yet.
However Playful Kiss this concept is stretched longer unlike Heartstrings.

Lee Shin is a university student majoring in modern music. He is the vocalist of the band "The Stupid" and also plays the guitar. He is known for his good looks and his strong passion for music but is in reality a cold person who is uninterested in non-music related things and has no dreams nor plans for the future. Shin initially likes a dance professor at his university, but this all changes when he meets Lee Kyu Won. Lee Kyu Won is a bright and outgoing student who was born into a prestigious family and is majoring in traditional Korean instruments, especially the gayageum. Kyu Won's grandfather, Lee Dong Gun, is one of the top 3 traditional musicians of his age, and his biggest wish is to have his granddaughter trained to become a traditional music prodigy in 10 years' time. Trying to live up to her grandfather's expectations, Kyu Won immerses herself in training and becomes a university student who knows nothing besides traditional music. As Kyu Won's friends are fans of "The Stupid", she was forced to go to the band's concert with them. There, she saw Lee Shin performing live and is immediately captivated by him.
Both drama relate to music and start out with the ML and FL as enemies who eventually become lovers. Whilst so I married an anti-fan has the male lead as an idol artist, heartstrings revolves around a ML who plays in a band and the FL who plays traditional Korean music.
School, bands, music, love :D If you like this in Heartstrings, you'll probably like Shut up: Flower Boy Band :D
Both drama have the people with full of music passion. But they have to deal with some tangled issues about that. Also both drama include a sweet love story.

Both dramas have quirky, silly comedy and the romantic developments between the characters are really funny and clumsy. However, I still consider PK of a higher enjoyment level, as the story is better developed and the characters are even better suited for their roles.
When his boss, Dae Jung, goes missing in a ship accident, the company sends Woo Joo to Osaka to finish his business. On his last day in the city, Woo Joo chases someone looking exactly like Dae Jung to Taisho, an area in Osaka. He ends up losing him, but the sound of a guitar draws Woo Joo to a small bar, Pier 34. Its owner, Snow, somehow reminds him of Dae Jung, and listening to his music brings back memories.
After passing out right there, Woo Joo ends up missing his flight back to Korea. He quits his job on a whim and soon meets Haruna, who is learning how to play the guitar from Snow. Woo Joo decides to stay at Pier 34 until he finds Dae Jung and so begins an unlikely vacation for him.
