Similarly a C drama on sports and romance. Both focusing on swimming and competing. My Mr Mermaid is warmer and has other lovely aspects of friendship, and team spirit.

The same scriptwriter Yang Hee Seung penned both dramas. Both dramas have wholesome memorable characters and comedy within quirky romance. Oh my ghost has extra elements of ghost mystery and thriller while Weightlifting fairy is more lighthearted and slice of life. Both are enjoyable with solid acting from the cast

Both historical drama with good blend of lightness and serious/sombre scenes. Has a main girl and many visually pretty/handsome guys. Overall it gives the same vibe but different plot.

Helmed by the same director. The focus is on a strong heroine who has brains and beauty but started off in a poor social position. Using her intelligence and cunning both heroines outwit their rivals and rise steadily within the palace to a position of power. They are realistic but never cruel.

Both these romcoms have a female lead whose different, quirky and bizzare. Oh Hae Young is perhaps more impulsive. Both females find themselves blurting amuzing embarassing things or situations. Both males are closed off and cold, seldom smile and even socially inept. Jo Se Ho in lucky romance is also bit nerdy and has an additional dimension in his character that really draws you in. Both become unwillingly drawn to the female lead and behave out of character.
Both dramas have poor first episode but gets better. The good acting and interactions compels you to follow their story.
