Memorist

Both MCs have a psychic ability. In both shows, the MCs are able to look through memories of other people through touching them. Both MCs work in a police base setting and use their powers in order to get closer to the case. While in Memorist, everyone accepts the fact the MC is a psychic but in Children of a lesser god, it is not the case. The MC struggles to convince people that her powers are legitimate and it becomes one of her struggles throughout the show. Another difference is that in memorist the MC can look through all memories but in Children of a lesser god the MC can only look through the moments before of the victims death.

Both dramas are thriller with a lot of mystery and very strange events.
They tell the story of an unusual cop (male lead character) partnering with a profiler/criminal psychology specialist (female lead character) in the pursuit of a serial killer.
The lead characters have their own personal struggle rooted in their childhood.
They are broadcasted by TvN
However, the male lead character in memorist has super powers but the one in awaken has just great detective skills.

- ML is a celebrity detective (in FXC because he's an elite, in Memorist because of his superpower)
- Reckless and cocky MLs who ultimately do really care about their jobs
- Strong and cold FLs that don't like the ML and keep him in check
- Both MLs work under FL (in Memorist she's a criminal profiler, in FXC she's the chief detective)
- Fun team dynamics
