Both start out on the ice hockey rink with guys who have been scarred through life and have built up walls of distrust towards women. Both men in these dramas make bets with their teammates on who they can seduce next. Their victims are pure-hearted, unsuspecting young women who they inevitably begin falling for little by little. Both couples must overcome various obstacles and periods of separation to test their true love for each other. "Pride" is more teammate focused while "Autumn's Concerto" is more family drama based.
Begin Again has a different start - the girl is rich, and starts a contract marriage with the guy, while Autumns Concerto follows two late teens where he is the rich boy. Something happens and both couples separate but meet again after a few years. The story that follows afterwards is very very similar to each drama, due to spoilers I cannot reveal more.
But if you like one you might also enjoy the other drama.
