New Life Begins (2022)

They are similar in terms of:
- They're both are in historical setting (to be precise, in kingdoms)
- Female Lead is knowledgable about food and they're known to make such outstanding and revolutionary food/culinary that were praised by other characters in the drama.
- Female Lead is in the situation where they are forced to marry Male Lead
- Female Lead is reluctantly to do skinships with her partner, and her partner doesn't force her to do so.
- Female Lead doesn't know etiquette inside the Palace
- Female Lead is smart (not academically, but more of a street-smart type or witty)
- Male Lead is pretending to be not who they actually is (in Mr. Queen, the King pretended to be dumb and weak, while New Life Begins 6th Prince is pretending to be weak and is trying to lay low on purpose)
- Male Lead chases Female Lead first
- Both dramas are very comedic
- Both dramas are light hearted, not too much melodramatic elements
- Both dramas showcase the life of a man with concubines (in Mr. Queen the FL is a queen, while the concubine is evil side-character, on the other hand, New Life Begins FL is a concubine)


The differences are:
- Mr Queen is a fantasy RomCom drama while New Life Begins is a normal RomCom drama
- Female Lead in Mr Queen is strong headed and badass, on the other hand, New Life Begins Female Lead is more timid
- In Mr. Queen, FL can only rely on her husband and her maid servants, but in New Life Begins, FL is actually making sisterhood bonds with a lot of females - the wives and concubines of the Princes.

Both are focused on the family relationship and all the dynamics between the family members. The lead couple has interesting dynamics and great chemistry.

Although New Life Begins is more light-hearted, both dramas shine a light on the hardships and prejudice women in Ancient China are confronted with.

They take the audience on an enlightening and inspiring journey as these women fight against the patriarchal society to flourish both in business and marriage. We're shown not only the bad marriages but also the good ones, where husband and wife can work together to achieve gender equality, harmony and prosperity.

Two of the best historical dramas, the acting was brilliant and the story is kinda simple in New Life Begins compared to Love like the galaxy but still it has the same impact on me because both dramas were not mainly focused on the ml and fl but showed everyone's story and it was hard for me to complete both of them .

I recommend this both drama because , Male lead and Female lead
try to solve problem
In one drama explosion and another student murder/suicide

_Both involves arrange marriage for the sake of maintaining peace in each nation/region.
_Also involves political or fight for power.

Similarities:
-Both have solid leads that view each other as equals and have equal love towards each other.
-Both ML's have brothers/advisors who have each others backs.
-Very smart and innovative leads.
-Both ML's have secrets they keep from their royal families ie their martial arts skills and high intelligence for the elements of surprise and self preservation.

In both stories you see how the main couple grows towards each other, and how the wife is helping her husband.

Main couple that needs time to warm up to each other. Smart female lead who helps her husband and further family to solve issues.

Set in a historical setting with two cities: a patriach and a matriach. The prince of the patriarchal city is sent to marry the princess of the matriarchal city. Lots of comedy and the couple is very cute.

Both have a similiar (quite rare) vibe of being more humour driven (with a lot of situational comedy) and generally a carefree fun attitude. Also they tinker with established gender roles.

Well both the dramas are about how women are treated unequally and how main characters wants to change the mindset of the family

If you like the main cast and want to see more of them, I recommend watching both! From the same main producer

Both have an unconventional FL entering the palace. The female lead changes the palace and herself as the story progresses.
The reluctance of the leads at the beginning to acknowledge their feelings is similar. Both address the development of love between a husband and wife after they are married.
