Both dramas have similar story. In both dramas woman is dying and man wants to spend the rest of the days with her make every day count.
Both story is build because the main character have an illness....Except in Scent of a Woman her cancer was for real...
Both dramas deal with the female lead having to deal with their respective diseases which may or may not result in their death in the end and having to deal with the love that develops during their time of illness at the same time. Also both are tearjerkers and if you easily cry at heart-wrenching scenes in movies, then I would also recommend that you have a Kleenex box hand just in case.
The stories are similar. However the only difference is that in scent of a woman its about the female lead and in goodbye dear wife its about the male lead!
Both are beautifully made dramas (on all aspects - story, acting, directing) and both are tear jerkers.
Story is so captivating!!! You keep screaming at your computer and yearning for more! Not to mention the eye candy!
It's also about disease. The main character of Scent of a Woman have such a short time to live and she tries to enjoy her life as much as she can while it is possible.
They're both dramas about workaholic female leads who took no time for themselves until they were told they have a limited amount of time left to live.
Both are about a girl with a terminal disease. Maybe for different ages but they're both still really good tear-jerkers.
The story may sound different but I think they have the same concept (rich man falling in love with a poor woman and everyone is against them). They are both SUPER ROMANTIC dramas and the main couples share an amazing chemistry!! In these two dramas you will find nothing but romance, romance and again romance (those are two of the best K drama couples that I've seen) plus both dramas have a crazy jealous fiancé and a love triangle. The only difference is that in LIP the girl isn't sick.
