Both dramas are great makjang, complete with birth secrets, angst, murder plots, and revenge. One difference is Hotel King has more romance, but the revenge plot is still the driving force of the story.

High school students mysteriously isolated/separated from society.
Romance subplots amongst the overarching sci-fi themes.

Both of these dramas are BLs about students coming of age and falling in love. In both of these dramas one of the leads has an abusive father. And both feature a delicious serving of angst. There is even more similarities but those would be a big spoiler, so just watch for yourself ;-)

Both dramas are about reincarnation in multiple lifes and the biggest question is if the protagonists will solve the problem that caused all the reincarnation thing. Another similar thing is that they retain the memories of past lifes.

The difference is that "See you in my 19th life" focus more in the last and current life of protagonist while in "Death's Game" we go through all protagoist's lifes after his main death.

Again this review is for uncut version and the Jack and Joke Special which PLEASE WATCH THE POST CREDIT SCENE OF THE SPECIAL and thank me later! If you're already on a page for a dark series with a toxic relationship then look no further. Because Jack and Joker has it all ! Slow burn enemies to lovers with SCORCHING CHEMISTRY and so much crack jokes you'll be laughing your ass off and then BAWLING because your heart just broke into a million pieces (exactly like Stand in I might add) and Jack though less entitled than Ming, when he gets toxic HE GETS REALLY TOXIC JUST THE WORST both shows are just damn chef's kiss for folks who love stuff like Kinn Porsche. Just a bunch of hot red flags to watch and watch repeatedly until the end of time, because what else are you doing with your life anyway?

Please watch the full 10 episode director's cut for Love Mechanics. Even the og novels are just as messed up the Love Mechanics novel is actually Non Con and not the way it's done here but the director truly kept the hate from Mark's character the same especially that first episode of LM is so messed up but damn good which I love. And their relationship in love mechanics gets just as toxic and then with the good old enemies to lovers trope with cliffies in every episode that will have you watching the next one! There's plenty of toxic behavior towards each other from both sides. Though in both shows gets a little less toxic and then there's some other conflicts instead.
