Adaption: Meaning both dramas/movies come from the same written material; novel, manga, or webtoon.
Compilation: Used to refer to dramas/movies that are part of the same series but the plot is not related at all, or in the case of behind the scene specials, talk specials, or recap. The main dramas/movies should use "Original Story".
Original Story: Use to refer to the main dramas/movies in case of a Compilation or Remake.

Prequel: A story containing events that precede those of an existing work (A prior season or film).
Remake: A drama/movie that is based on an earlier product and tells the same, or a very similar, story. (Not to be used between dramas or movies adapted from the same written material; novel, manga, or webtoon).
Sequel: A work that continues the story or develops the theme of an earlier one (The next season of a drama or part 2 of a movie).
Side Story: A self-contained story featuring the main characters that run parallel to the main narrative but is never completely separate from it.
Spin-off: Taking the supporting characters from one drama/movie and make them the main characters in a new drama/movie.
