Flower of Evil

One night, Amemura Shinsuke, a bartender at a Nishi Azabu bar in Tokyo, is attacked by a male stranger and loses a part of his memories. However, he soon learns that he caused the death of a woman called Kishinaka Minae in a traffic accident one and a half years ago. And the man who came to attack him and later committed suicide, was her husband Reiji. For some reason, Shinsuke is frequently advised by the people around him that it is better not to recall bad things. He begins to have misgivings about the truth of the accident. Then when Shinsuke returns to the bar on one rainy night, Ruriko, a woman in mourning clothes and of unwordly beauty, shows up all of a sudden. From the time of her appearance, Shinsuke descends into a world of madness and anguish. Does she truly exist or is she a figment of imagination conjured by a guilty conscience?

both male leads are suspisious and female lead tryies to find everything out. both male leads familys have tregic past.

The background is a detective story plus thriller, the MCs are kind of cold and unapproachable by most people, they both deal with an almost Impostor's Syndrome situation over and over again (except they don't doubt themselves, just don't fit in, for reasons).

There's quite a bit of similarity between the endings of the two dramas, too (can't tell more in order not to spoil them.)

Also, the acting is through the roof - you've seen the male leads together (Lee Joon Gi and Jung Kyung Ho) in another rather good drama, Time Between Dog and Wolf, and they nailed it there, too.

Main character also uses someone else identity due to complicated family issues.
She then falls in love and starts a relationship while hiding her true identity.
Mask is more about the lies and betrayal between the couple, their relationship is more complicated and not as stable as in Flower of Evil.

University student, Takatsuki Minato, likes things to be clean and in order while her stepbrother, Takatsuki Toru, is a bit of a player. One day, while cosplaying as a high-school student in a fashionable district in Tokyo, Minato accidentally bumps into Toru and quickly lies about her identity. To her surprise, Toru appears to take an interest in her alternate identity, Mina, and asks her out. Thinking that she might be able to cure Toru out of his playboy ways, Minato continues to disguise herself as Mina but will she be able to keep up the charade when she starts developing feelings for Toru?

die serie ist änlich . er gibt vor jemand zu sein was er nicht ist und spielt gut . bisschen zeitreise is dabei das hat mich gestört aber sonst recht cool

SIMILARITIES
• Both follow a married couple with a child (both are daughters)
• Both couples both struggle with their relationship at one point
• Someone in the family is kidnapped (/held hostage) at some point
• The stakes are pretty high in both dramas - you will feel tense watching both dramas
• Both are mystery and thriller - crimes that take place in present time are related to characters' past, so there's multiple mysteries to an extent

DIFFERENCES
• Flower of Evil follows a morally grey character ML who has been through a lot but still wants to do everything he can to protect his family. Whereas in My Family, the ML is basically an absent father who doesn't pay attention to his wife or daughter.

Both have the same general plot and similar scenes, with the M L hiding his past from the FL who is his wife and in law enforcement, as all the while she begins to suspect him of being a murderer. SOY shifts the setting to ancient China, while FOE is modern day South Korea.

Both shows make me experience similar suspense, angst and thrilling moments. Both are fast-paced in terms of dropping clues and relations among different characters, building a great momentum in each episode to keep me curious on what's next.

Same screenwriter. If you like the family fluff/drama part in Flower of Evil, I think you'll like I Introduce My Father too.
