Both shows are binge-worthy, short dramas! They are both full of metaphors and small details that you will appreciate upon rewatching :)

Themewise: Both leads in this drama have illegal secrets that they constantly trying to hide. They both underwent downward arcs throughout the story (their mental health and confidence are better at the start, then decline towards the end). So, if you like one, you better try the other to get a similar sensation.

In my opinion, Extracurricular has a faster pacing and the final is more epic. Anna has better fashion and scenery.

*Bonus: Both shows feature burning cars!

both centered around juvenile crimes and netflix kr original

juvenile justice revolves around the judge, there are several cases (different on each episodes), and its a slow-burn drama

extracurricular revolves around the perpetrator, the story more fast-paced

Would definitely recommend Extracurricular if you liked Death’s Game. This is a dark drama, with a questionable protagonist/antihero. Similarly there is a surprise ending.

Both shows center around struggling youth who decide to earn money illegally. While Hope or Dope 2's main lead is a female, Extracurricular is centered around a young man.

Here’s my plan may not be as dark as Extracurricular but both dramas are similar in the sense that they are both about teens who live alone and carry out illegal activities to make a living.

Although it's not a school drama, the leads in these dramas are super similiar. They both have to do illegal things to earn money, they have no parents in their life/ have a parent who treats them horribly, they have to keep secrets from the people around them, and they are both really smart. Both of these dramas have dark undertones and smart female characters
