It is also about people trying to play a game that they seemingly have no control over but they have to use their minds to make it out alive, or with more money.
Both have similar filming style and visualization techniques. Both present a group of people randomly brought together and forced to play a game with their lives at stake. Greater powers operate behind the scenes.
Both are about out smarting your opponent to survive. While Me & 23 slaves is a bit closer to the horror genre they were both very enjoyable. They also both consist of a male and female lead and have very colorful sub characters.
LIAR GAME (jdrama) has a story with similar themes that center around random characters' participation in a dangerous game. They both involve money and debts, acts of betrayal and greed, etc.
"The Genius" is a korean variety show in which celebrities who are known for their wit compete in tasks that are very similar to the ones in "Liar Game".
Both are about logical thinking, formed aliances and betrayals.
Even though one is a movie & the other a drama plus their genres are nothing alike, they both feature a very warm-hearted FL that is perceived as stupid.
Both contains psychology, the different characters and scenario are interesting which brights up the story.
Even though the both story is kind of different,in some ways they are some what similar (:
