Both dramas address heavy themes while managing to be lighthearted and funny. In Definitely Not Today, there’s a lot of dark humor and two very unusual protagonists who are quite different from each other but end up finding reasons to follow the same path and grow closer.

In Ho Goo's Love, there’s also plenty of humor in a serious situation and two protagonists who are very different from one another. Both dramas feature a strong female lead dealing with trauma and a complicated situation (with a lot of funny moments) that forms the central story of the dramas, alongside a male lead who is soft, clumsy, yet very determined when it comes to supporting the female lead. The difference is that the male lead in Definitely Not Today also has his own traumas, whereas the male lead in Ho Goo's Love does not.

One is a normal length Kdrama (16 episodes of 1 hour) and the other is a short Cdrama (8 episodes of 20 minutes), but both of them are worth it.

- The female leads in both dramas had similar experiences with their previous jobs.
- Both of them have a male childhood friend by their side—the male lead from Love Next Door is an architect, and the male lead from Dear My Room works in interior design.
- Both dramas are slice-of-life, but Love Next Door has more humorous moments and a lot of bickering between the main leads, while Dear My Room is more of a relaxing/slowburn drama, with the leads having a calmer relationship.
- Both dramas have Yun Ji On as one of the mains.

Don't be reluctant to watch Dear My Room because of its rating. Personally, I loved it and think it's underrated. It may be rated this way because it’s heavy on slice-of-life and interior design, and the romance progresses slowly. However, it's very relaxing and has become one of my comfort dramas.
