Mr. Sunshine (2018)

both are set in the same period, strong female lead, militant

> Both dramas by writer Kim Eun Sook. I'm recommending two shows she did, both of which are of soldiers, but the feeling of the two dramas are quite opposite. DOTS is romcom and Mr Sunshine is more melo.
> Both lead males are soldiers.
> The male lead in DOTS and the female lead in Mr Sunshine are both characters fiercely determined to protect their country
> The second lead couple' actors in DOTS appeared in Mr Sunshine as parents of the female lead.

Both dramas are very different from anything you expect from regular sageuks. They are visually very different and the characters are portrayed in a unique way to sageuks.

Turbulent times. The modern and the old coexisting and clashing. Old ways and old customs are portrayed in a way that make them look strange and exotic.

It gave off the same feels. Both have the idea of fighting against the Japanese occupation. Both have that forbidden love.

Both are historical dramas with strong female leads. You end up loving the main characters as well as the side characters and feel invested in their stories. The pacing in both is fast and you are hooked. Also, SO MUCH BROMANCE.

Another period drama with a strong female lead and a similar male lead. Both plots are very addictive and the cast in both dramas are well known actors or idols.

Both have very brave female leads. Both during war time. Male leads in military or police. Lots of scary and dangerous moment. War is tragedy

Recommendations are more than similarities between 2 dramas..
At 1st glance they share nothing in common but manwol is kinda similar to hina from mr sunshine. They both own a hotel, they have a similar taste in fashion and they are both strong female worriers though hina is slightly more "playful"..
If you loved and missed hina then this is a great drama~
Also both are really aesthetically appealing..

Around the same time period. Features strong fighting women and focuses on patriotism. A lot of conflict between Japan and Korea.

Both revolve around Japanese occupation of different countries, and are based on female leads who are privileged but also want to do something to change the state of affairs in their countries.

both River Where the Moon Rises and Mr. Sunshine are similar in their amazing strong warrior female leads that can fight on their own

It is a Joseon-period historical drama. I would love for this show to be picked up by Netflix so that I could watch it with English subtitles. I love other Korean historical dramas, e.g., Mr. Sunshine, Mr. Queen, The King's Affection, and Rookie Historian! More, please! I am an English-speaking US citizen hooked on South Korean TV shows. I am learning a little bit about the Korean language, culture, and history as I watch.

Same theme - korean independence army fighting against Japan, strong female lead, characters you have to love, packed with action and beautifully shot scenes.

Em ambos os dramas predominam o contexto histórico, cenário de guerra, militarismo, perdas. Em ambos os amantes não ficam juntos e há muitas tragédias.
