Awaken (2020)

Both dramas have as their story a group of people who conduct human experiments. In both dramas people escaped their facility and developed superpowers. In Luca and in Awake those children, which were experimented on, hold the key to the success for this experiment and are therefore wanted and hunted.
Truly it feels like the exact same story just different characters.

Both dramas are crime solving and thriller, mystery , suspense, action. The main lead of the drama is detective. the male lead in both dramas seems to have dark past and have something to hide. Both dramas have many twists, turns and surprises.

Bpth series has little bit same kind of backstory. The male lead has same actor
Namkoong Min. Both series has much shooting scenes etc. if you like series where a lot of different scenes happen like shooting scenes ect you need to wath both of these. i recommend much. (sorry i you dont understand what i try to say because i suck at english)

Circle and Awaken both similar when it comes on experimenting on human believing that it's an answer for humankind problems. Circle is about erasing PTSD completely (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) because PTSD is a kind of mental illness that won't be cure but can be control while Awaken has making an experiment for immortality that is impossible for humankind.
It also has investigation and mystery.

Both Awaken and Blind are mystery thrillers and give same vibes.
Awaken had some superhuman abilities if I remember accurately.
If you liked Awaken , you would try Blind, there is a good chance you would like this series as well.

Both main characters of these dramas have similar abilities, especially the FL of Family Matters and the ML of Awaken. Those two characters can manipulate someone's mind yet they also have a difference. Anyhow, both dramas interestingly awaken your curiosity about their family matters.

i have yet to watch Awaken fully but here's what i can see from the summary/some of the reviews!

- forgotten tragedies
- serial murders (both shows have them set around 30-35 years after the first killings)
- FBI (both shows have MCs that are on loan from the FBI/both are women)
- emotional MLs
- psychology (i see the tag on Awaken and i'm not quite sure where it will come in but in Chimera one of the MLs is a brain surgeon/former army veteran trained in [redacted] while one of the FLs is a criminal profiler—didn't quite give me Memorist vibes in the latter but it was there)
- hinted romance (Awaken seems to be more out in the open while Chimera is more subtle and slightly more complicated, ig?)

if you think all of this is for you, give Chimera a try! you might like it more than me <333
