The main actors are the same. Both are full of political intrigue and plot twists, with similar main characters who are smart and humorous. On the outside, they look weak and unreliable, but they are actually very skilled chess players.

Happy Ending is an incredible psychological thriller drama, which, at the time of writing this reccomendation, has only released a pilot trailer. Jeff Satur is the producer, music director, and one of the main actors. The trailer gives just a glimspe into the story, showing the premise of novel Reader 'Anawin' (played by Barcode) meeting Damon (Jeff) who is the angtagonist of a novel he read. The synopsis reminded me of Omniscient Reader novel, so I wanted to check it out. It's releasing sometime in 2026, and has a good premise.

My Chef in Crime gives off sort of Hannibal vibes. Jeff plays the role of a chef who used to be a forensic scientist. After his rival chef is killed in a brutal murder, he ends up working together with the detective on the case in order to clear his name. The Pilot only came out a while ago, but the cinematography looks incredible.

I want to reccomend one show to any watcher of the other, since they both have Jeff Satur as a main actor, and because the trailers gave off similar vibes. Lookinng forward to watching both.
