Dramas with talented leads who both are recognised or "popular" in their field

Recommendation Request

I'm looking for a drama with leads who are incredibly talented and professional in their professions/career. This is not restricted to Kdramas, I'm open to anything really. Mostly looking for modern dramas, I'm not a huge fan of historic dramas. I would also preferably like to avoid anything with messy breakups/love triangles, but I am fine if it isn't something incredibly present within the plot. I'm a really big fan of things that are a bit fluffy and show the life of the characters after they get together, but it's not a must.

Things that I've liked similar to this is King the Land where both main leads were extremely talented in their careers and well recognised, You are my Glory, or the Cdrama Ski into Love where the ML was a professional skier and the FL was a professional manga artist. Other things I've liked are Marry my Husband and Perfect Marriage Revenge (I've watched a lot of the other dramas similar to them but I wasn't too hyped about them. One thing I've noticed is that this trope is a lot more prevalent in Cdramas, so feel free to recommend some of them!

I have already watched: Perfect Marriage Revenge, True Beauty, My ID is Gangnam Beauty, Mr Queen, Business Proposal, Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, King the Land, Reply Series, and Twinkling Watermelon.

Non-Kdramas that I've enjoyed: Skate into Love, Ski into Love, Falling into your Smile, You are My Glory, Put your Head on My Shoulder, The First Frost, WIFTY, Hidden Love
