Both dramas have a similar plot basis/structure:
A man faced with injustice, seeking revenge on those who hurt himself and his family, utilises a woman (who also experienced tragedy/injustice and is seeking revenge) as the central figure in his ploys to achieve revenge.
Both dramas feature plots intricately designed to systematically bring down the enemy and ultimately get revenge for injustices suffered.
Both male leads work within the justice system Jang Do Han [The Guardians] is a prosecutor and Cha Min Joon [The Goddess of Revenge] is a lawyer.

Both MLs are both morally grey characters who don't mind "playing the bad guy" to get revenge for their loved ones, they both have tragic backstories and has their own little team to help them on their quest for revenge. They both work for the law, although Jang Do Han is a prosecutor while Kang Yo Han is a judge.
Both stories revolves around taking down corrupt officials and politicians, but deep down it's more about getting revenge for their loved ones.

They each deal with solving crimes and busting the bad guys. In both Signal and Lookout (Th Guardians) there are several main characters that work in a team and have very deep, heart-wrenching backstories and goes/focuses on each their individual stories equally in different segments of the drama. Sooji and Haeyoung have strong similarities regarding the crimes that changed and ruined their lives. The villains are especially vile and will make your blood boil in both, LOL.
While Lookout is not as superb as Signal (among my top faves!), I still strongly recommend it because it is good and have paces that will have you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
