These dramas are both innocent cohabitation stories, and it's very focused on the main characters and their feelings, which was the best part in my opinion. I often dislike it when dramas try to cram so much into the story that they neglect to develop the main story, the reason why people watch in the first place. There's lots of cute moments in both stories, but they're realistic and not diabetes inducing or forced. I highly recommend them both, and if you liked one, I'm sure you'll like the other! :))
Both shows are written by the same people and have a very similar feeling. They seem cute, innocent and lighthearted on the surface but address problems in society at the same time, especially concerning women’s rights. There are very progressive themes in both shows that you don’t find in most dramas. I highly recommend them both! I promise you won’t regret it :))
Similarities:
-Main female lead is endearing because she takes care of a troubled family.
-Love triangle between main female lead, main male lead and his brother.
-Poor people do cruel things in order to gain power and wealth, only to be unhappy and realize you can't buy happiness.
-Secrets of birth.
-Enjoyable.
Differences:
-Can You Heat My Heart is a makjang melodrama while Stars Falling from the Sky is a slightly melo romcom. The first is serious and heart wrenching while the second is relatively light hearted and funny. They do well in their own genre, though, so they're both worth the watch!

They both have badass male protagonists who fall in love while on a mission. The female protagonists are strong-willed and likable. Yong Pal has less action and more melo, but they're both amazing.
They both have very likeable main characters who capture your heart, and the side characters are well developed. They're both well rounded, and invoke a spectrum of emotions - happiness, tears, laughter, etc. They're both amazing dramas. While they're both long, they're also entertaining from the first episode to the last.
