The King of Pigs (2022)

I have not seen the drama yet, but looking at the plot and how it's about revenge, I do think that king of pigs is similar to The Glory. They are both about middle age main lead who, unable to forget their past, decide to follow the path of vengeance by any means. They infiltrate their bullies lives so that they also can know what it's like to live in hell.

- Both set in high school
- there are bunch of bullying and school violence.
- both of them are damn dark
The only difference is that The King Of Pigs has the older self of the kids while here it's just the teens.

similar in terms of getting justice to right a wrong but TKOP has a mofre brutal side in terms of telling the story

Both dramas deal with kids and with how they are not always so innocent. Both dramas are psychologically violent and they make a good use of the plot twists to portray that violence. Both dramas also pay attention to the social and family situations of the kids and how it plays a part in shaping who they are. And finally, both dramas are unpredictable and features complex characters that are far from being the typical heroes.

Both have high school violence and bullying
Fighting in like every episode
Will definitely both make you cry
Both about 3 friends going through school
You can see the development and the destruction of their friendships

Both drama are about psycho killer and detective solving his cases
Both drama have psychological trauma and brutal cases

Both deal with extreme cases of bullying that lead to tragic outcomes.

The main lead also has to confront his own demons.

They are both dark and have a shocking touch of reality.

Extreme bullying and victims taking their revenge in a specific way that is in both dramas similar. Both dramas also have the theme of mentally unstable people and both dramas are filled with twists and surprises.

Both dramas are about a crime that is connected to someone on the police force.
In both dramas the officers know the suspected culprit well, are estranged from them and are now involved in their cases. Both keep secrets from their colleagues and both dramas have the subject of poverty, abuse, suicide and bullying.

- both shows like to switch between past and present to gradually reveal the events that led to the current situation and to uncover the mysteries related to it (the use of sepia/yellow filter is also similar)
- the past is full of dark events; Nine is a time travel show so it also lets us experience how life of some characters can change if those events play out a little different

King of Pigs is consistently heavy from the start until the end, Nine takes like 1-2 episodes to start showing its true colors and the further it goes, the better it gets.

Both treats about kids being mistreated.
Both are revenge drama.
Both are police investigation.
Both are dark, hard to watch.

- both shows like to switch between past and present to gradually reveal the events that led to the current situation and to uncover the mysteries related to it (the use of sepia/yellow filter is also similar)
- there is a lot of injustice happening around the main characters and it's very difficult if not impossible to deal with it
- both shows are consistently dark throughout all of their episodes

I'm pretty confident a fan of one will like the other.

There are a few thriller dramas that play the angst and tension well
Dark, hunting and captivating dramas that rely on two roles playing off of each other

In both dramas, the Male and Female Lead suffered from trauma which led them to get their revenge on their attackers. Also both leads kill their first victims the same way.
