Both of the dramas are about marriage of convenience where main leads fall into love after marriage. Hope you enjoy!

I remembered feeling like their was innocent yet sensual acts between leads that gave out such great chemistry.
Honestly I love a good romance drama that the lead couple takes it to next level…
I don’t necessarily want to see the details but in real life if a couple has that great of a chemistry then it’s only natural to add sex in the equation.
Also both dramas had their leads in a pretend fake love relationship to start with and both ended up falling in love during the process

Shoji Shoko is a 26-years-old beautiful woman who works hard and is admired by everyone. The problem she has is that she’s still a virgin. To change herself, she decides to move into a love-hunting sharehouse called “Love House", and she ends up living with six other people; three guys and three girls. Relationships in the "Love House" become complicated, and Shouko's love life takes an unexpected turn.

Shoujo. Steamy. Romantic. Fluffy. Office drama.

Both are just very fluffy and light romance comedies that will give you butterfly feelings. Leads in both dramas work in the same company so a lot of office drama or tension. And the steaminess is a huge plus!!!

The chemistry and pace of the relationship between the main leads gives the same feeling. But SMH is much better on the fluffiness and it doesn’t have love triangle.

To put it simply the similarity is in

the love after marriage genre

Both feature:
- Female leads that are cute and confident in her own ways.
- Male leads who are forward, capable, major green-flags.
- Office romance with a marriage theme.
- Romantic and intimate moments, appropriate for two people in love!

marriage without love , awkward and causal relation

These are both strangers-to-lovers romance dramas that feature healthy communication, a rather unique relationship dynamic, no true love-triangle, and hardworking leads.

I'm not fully sure why, but I kept getting reminded of cherry magic the whole time I was watching this. I don't know how to describe it but they have very similar vibes.
- two main leads work together
- in an office setting
- a main plot besides plain romance
- acknowledgeable character development
- an overall fluffy feeling
- Both couples basically keep their romance a secret from work (at least marriage honey for beginning episodes)

Summer is a driven HK career woman, who’s dumped by her boyfriend and fired from her job. With little left, she discovers that the Malaysian beach she co-owns with her cousin is desired by a developer for upwards of 4 million US dollars. She travels to Malaysia to sell but discovers that the new co-owner is a beach bum named Mor Mor Cha. Mor Mor Cha refuses to sell, so Summer decides to stay and persuade him into selling the beach.

Both are mini dramas about a contract marriage that becomes true love. Both MLs marry in order to appease their parent or grandparent.

if you like shanai marriage honey then i would recommend rikokatsu because in both drama they couple don't know anything about eachother in shanai they both are workmates but in rikokatsu the male lead is an air rescue wing and female is a fashion magazine. rikokakatsu has multicouple and every couple want divorce ffrom there partner

Both dramas focus on Contract marriage without any previous knowledge of the other party, yet for personal reasons to fulfill the expectations.
The leads fall in love during the contract.
