If you have enjoyed A Business Proposal, you must not miss the original Full House (2004). Full House (2004) is considered a pioneer of the Korean rom-com genre and the many rom-com clichés of rich male lead, boss-employee relationship, contract marriage, and bickering couple. Plus see Rain and Song Hye Kyo in their younger days in a boisterous and silly rom-com back in 2004. Also this drama was such a great success in Asia, propelling the Korean Wave and has been remade in other countries including Thailand, the Philippines, China and Taiwan.
- both have a little narcissistic, rich and CEO ML's;
- smart and hardworking FL's;
- ML falls in love first;
- office romance;
it was the firework scenes that matched these two romcoms for me, the only big differences, aside the duration of the dramas, are the time loop thing in SBWRE and the fake relationship in BP.
