Similar in a way that both dramas are about a group of wealthy and powerful people who would do anything to stay in power and get away from their crimes by committing murder, betraying their own, and never ending scheming. Both plot also has those victimized trying to seek revenge against the elite class. Lastly, both dramas are created by the same director and has Shin Sung Rok as a main character.
However, The Last Empress has more cute and comedic scenes and is a family oriented drama compared to Return which is more on the darker side and friendship oriented.

the storylines of both drama are quite different but similar at the same time. Both are about the rich & privileged people who used their privilege and power to step on other people. The characters in both dramas hide murder and their crimes together to save their elite status, also Bong Tae Kyu and Yoon Jung hoon are in both dramas as friends, accomplices or partners in crime. Even characters of Bong Tae Gyu(Lee Kyu Jin) in both dramas are similar(childish & stupid). Anyway both dramas has the same feeling and ambiance.
