Both The Heart Killers (Uncut) and Long Time No See are centered around a hitman based storyline that also includes BL or Gay Romance.

The Heart Killers is a Thai series that involves 2 main couples.
Long Time No See is a South Korean film with just one couple.

- the tone is the same
- gangs and action packed
- the cinematography and visual effect pretty much the same
- betrayal and loss on both sides
- emotionally moving
- Forgotten has more narrative switches
- Forgotten includes redemption arc, while Merciless is kind of leaving you hanging.
Forgotten is a better movie overall, but I think that this duo from Merciless carried the movie well, and definitely is worth it to watch just for their chemistry. Of course, except for the whole plot and vibe that is similar to the Merciless.

An assistant to a TV producer, eager to stay off his bad side, promises to convince her former professor, a famous but reclusive academic, to appear on their show, which helps locate long-lost persons. Who does grey-haired Professor Yun Suk Young want to see again more than anything? The answer to that question lies decades in the past.

1969 was a tumultuous year the world over, and South Korea was no exception. President Park Chung Hee's iron-fisted dictatorship has provoked a backlash among angry students, and trouble is brewing. Suk Yong and his comrades decide that Seoul is getting too tense and embark on a summer retreat in the countryside, where they will help bring a rural village up to date with the modern world.

But Suk Young discovers pretty Seo Jung In, the only local girl who shows no interest in the strikingly handsome student from a well-to-do family - and that, of course, means he's soon falling head over heels for her. Their bumpy courtship, however, is threatened by dark secrets that Jung In hides about her family and their history in the village, secrets that will haunt the pair as the volatile political climate catches up with them

If you enjoyed the Drifting Away, you might find Beyond Evil equally captivating, as both delve into intricate crime investigations and the psychological complexities of their characters.

Both dramas offer a profound exploration of the human psyche against the backdrop of gripping crime stories, making Beyond Evil a compelling watch if you appreciated the narrative style of Drifting Away.

Both are long dramas that include rich family, poor family, older sister taking care of their siblings. Revenge by brothers from their parents car accidents . A very pitiful female lead.

Absolutely. CoN has to do with crime and punishment of the people who have gravely mistreated children, and so does Blind. They both include serial killers. Their themes also seem to overlap greatly, namely victims and perpetrators seem to be everywhere. Then the questions they ask are the same: "Who has the right to judge?" or "At what point is the punishment justified?"

I would say Blind focuses more on the mystery aspect 'who is it'-who is the serial killer; and CoN focuses on the reasons why the people were killed in the first place.

CoN did better job with the story cohesion, overall (they had 32 episodes to do so, while Blind had 16). Blind had a more interesting premise overall, but execution goes to CoN. The cinematography in Blind is gore, bright and punchy, while CoN has had more earthy tones and subdued action scenes. Blind has better villain but actors being quite neutral in performance in CoN perhaps gives the worthy topic the center of the stage. I remember more scenes from Blind (gorgeous visual effects), while the theme and lessons I got more from CoN.

She is betrayed by her fiance and also by her famiy especially her mother and sister. She is ressurected to take reveng on her ex and her sister yet she falls for her sister's fiance and they share a beautfiul romace together. THE GREENEST FLAG TO BE SEEN!!!!

Both dramas highlight resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity. The protagonists of Flourished Peony and Blossom are faced with situations where they need to overcome personal and societal expectations. Whether it’s navigating the power dynamics in a royal setting or managing career and family pressure, both characters show determination in staying true to themselves. They share a focus on character-driven stories, emotional depth, and themes of self-discovery. The main difference lies in their setting—Flourished Peony offers a historical drama filled with political intrigue, while Blossom offers a more contemporary narrative grounded in personal ambition and relationships.

Both are about -
1. Going back to time & setting things right to change the final outcome.
2. Both are Chinese dramas

It has a similar topic (an ensemble cast investigating supernatural mysteries), and the character dynamics are similar. It also deals with supernatural abilities and characters coming to terms with having them.

-Both are fairly slow-moving
-They both deal with police and breaking the law
-In both there is a complex story that unfolds over the course of the show
-The romance takes a back-seat in both with the plot being the main focus

There were many people involved in the case they were investing and everyone in the village was hiding something and were glad someone else went to jail and took the blame.
