My Name

A lot of similar elements between two dramas such as revange, mafia, police, undercover etc. Both dramas are very dark.

Somewhat different but main MC's give off a similar vibe. Both of them train/are killers by nature and are on a revenge plot.

In both series FL LEARNS AND TRAIN TO TAKE REVENGE AGAINST ORGANIZATIONS THAT LED TO THEIR PARENTS DEATH ALTHOUGH CHOCOLATE LEAD IS EXTRA SPECIAL I HOPE that a lot of people enjoy this. This movie is a hidden gem. Nd I am telling you all the action scenes are real the stunt cast actually got hurt during shoots nd had lots of injuries but all the effort paid off

Both movie involve revenge. Strong main lead. Lots of brutality. To find the hard truth. Strategy and plot to get to the bottom of the ugly truth

If you liked the glory part 2 then my name is a must watch for you, it has the same plot of Revenge where the main lead is a women who is seeking revenge from some big people

Both had:
-similar vibes
-bullying
-murder
-protective male lead
-independent FL
-harsh topic

Differences:

My Name:
-K-drama
-Fl was a part of a gang
-FL was a double agent (police officer/gang member)
-ML was a detective
-Adult life

Better Days:
-Criminals
-More of high school
- A lot more romance

Undercover cop, revenge for parent killer, strong female lead, male lead fell for her, martial art, fight, touch of romance,

delve into themes of revenge, fate, and complex human relationships, offering thrilling narratives that keep viewers engaged.

Similarities:
- Same Actress: Han So Hee
- Parent's Death
- Both South Korean Dramas
- Both lean into crime,and danger
- They focus on betrayal, loyalty, identity and survival
- Have a dark, gritty atmosphere
- Involve themes of loss, survival, and emotional pain
- Crime/Thriller elements
- Both give off a serious, mature tone rather than romance/comedy vibes


Different:
- Project Y is a movie, and My Name is an 8 episode drama
- My Name is darker and more physically intense
- Project Y appears more emotional and psychological
- My Name feels more like a revenge-action story
- My Name mostly follows one person’s journey
-Project Y is expected to focus more on multiple female leads together
- My Name has a long series format with gradual development
- Project Y seems more focused on crime, survival and relationships between characters

Similar in terms or the whole villian concept, and theme. But, Kill it is pretty much exactly similar. But, both of the ones I have recommended have better character development.

Directors of both dramas are same, so the ones who loved the directing style of Extracurricular, will like this too.

- Associations with mafia
- Death of father trope that becomes their somewhat motivation
- Both fathers being murdered on their bday
- Finding out who (revenge)
- Bullied at school
- Complicated romance

So, not entirely the same. Scratch that completely not the same. However, it gives me the same vibes. I don't know why. There's a little comedy, but it's also very serious at times. Plot twists from what I remember were insane. Anyway, I would mostly just watch this if you really liked the partnership between two cops. It's also a tad romantic, or extremely romantic can't really remember, so if you're not into romance this is just a warning to you.

Both of them offer intense storylines that delve into the complexities of youth, crime, and retribution.

Both main lead were trained by gang leader.
They were both at their lowest point, after training, they were asked to be policemen, as a mold or spy…
