• I don't think it's Korean netizens I saw the article it wasn't published by a Korean newspaper or publisher or anything like that it's more a gossip site than anything they publish trash takes on Asian entertainment as a whole in general

• My comment didn't get posted the first time so I'm going to post it again sorry if it gets double posted but I don't think it's fair to call it Korean netizens complaining I saw the article and it's published by this trash gossip site that likes to stir up rumors about Asian entertainment all the time. I haven't seen it reposted anywhere else.

• Lol I'm with C-netz on this one. Plus Zeng Shunxi was just a cameo, his screen time wasn't even for an episode. By these pictures, it seems like he was a 2ML, nope he wasn't. LiXian's character is the only one that could be said is similar but even that is pretty different, he was no Chief, yes everyone's go-to man in the village but he came back to invest in his town. His and Chief Kim's story was completely different, no tragedy involved for Xie Zhi yao. Also, the reason for both FLs to go to a small town is very different. I don't know why I'm even giving explanations because these are two completely different dramas. HomeCha3 was actually a stronger script whereas Meet Yourself had the best couple I have seen in a while.MY was much more about the ensemble cast living in the homestay. HomeCha was about the villagers. But yeah there is no comparison because they are not even similar.

• As someone who has seen both dramas can truly say they are nothing alike in fact Meet Yourself is a million times better than HomeCha which is just a generic romcom. Meet Yourself is both insightful and healing with one of the best male leads ever written. HomeCha was another typical kdrama after the first half but Meet Yourself was about self discovery and growth with an ensemble cast who each had their own journey and scare to heal from. The friendship of the three female characters was one of the best parts of the drama along with the couple. Knetz are reaching with their comparisons. There is no 2ML in this drama and that guy was just a cameo he barely had any screentime and was not a romantic rival. If anything people should watch Meet Yourself over HomeCha if you want a sweet healing drama set in a quiet picturesque countryside.

  • Totally agree

  • @Yenz Absolutely and totally agree with you! Both are different dramas and I also think Meet Yourself is a much better one. Meet Yourself is not a romcom but a healing story and in my POV, a much better made drama, with a strong and consistent theme, script and storyline. I felt healed just watching it, both the amazing sceneries and the character/ relationship developments.

    Someone above said the article was by a gossip tabloid, so maybe it's just someone trying to create fire out of nothing...

    • *some gossip media trying to create fire out of nothing...

• How are they so similar? FL goes to town because her BBF died and it was their dream to travel to ML's town. She ends up living as if we all wished we were lol. ML goes back to help his town. They fall in love. Its not THAT similar.

• This is my first time hearing about this and I can't seem to understand where the similarities are. The only similarities I can think of is that they both have small village settings.

• Sorry for HTCC fans but Meet Yourself is not like a remake/copycat/plagiarized version of the Korean drama. In my opinion, MY is way better than HTCC. HTCC was like a venue to show how KSH can easily cry.

  Anyway. I would also suggest and recommend that people should watch MY. It's a nice, healing drama. Wish to visit Yunnan in the future ❤️

• Not the same drama at all. Not remotely the same unless the K-netizens want to put on a copyright on all travel dramas which is the only both dramas have in common. Have watched both and I have to say Meet Yourself is the superior drama, has more depth and deals with more realistic issues. K-netizens are just making a great deal of noise over nothing.

• I've been a long-time Kdramas fan and I don't follow Cdramas that often. However I have to agree with everyone here, there's nothing similar between the two dramas, and Meet Yourself is way better than HTCCC.
  The series offers depth, calming atmosphere, healing moments, beautiful scenes, a healthy and mature couple. 'HTCCC' was only good in the first half and eventually lost its steam in the later half. I was so disappointed with 'HTCCC' that I felt it's unfair that people fail to recognize the sheer brilliance of Meet Yourself. While both dramas have their merits, 'Meet Yourself' stands out for its sincerity, whereas HTCCC falls short in this regard.

  • 👍

• Lmao it must be someone jealous of Meet Yourself buying this article, they’re nothing alike. The only similar things about them is they shoot it in village lol
