One of the main characters is a a shaman who is "forced" to go to the palace to solve what's haunting the royal family. In both series, the king also plays a prominent role. Both series are focused on a palace drama and also various ghost and other "beings" haunting the palace and its occupants.

Both are horror/thriller dramas where theres loads of action taking place. Both have elements of the supernatural. They give the same vibes in a way with ofc differences in how the story takes it and the overall settings, but the atmosphere is similar which is why i'm recommending them as similar.
Major Differences:
- One is spirits in the Gwi realm and the other is monstrous beings hunting humans in the real world.
- One is historical the other is apocalyptic.
- Palace setting and apartment complex setting.

Golden Kamuy: The Hunt of Prisoners in Hokkaido is the sequel to the first live action film of the Golden Kamuy series, and Golden Kamuy: The Abashiri Prison Raid follows this drama so it should be recommended.
