First I would like to mention that the merciless is a movie. But it is one of the most thrilling movies i have ever seen.

As well as Im Siwan has been playing his role in Strangers from hell as good or even better he played the MC in the Merciless. It is a dark and complex role. The movie too has overall a dark theme but the plot is quite different from Strangers from Hell.

Give it a try, I swear you shall not be dissapointed.

Both are quite dark featuring prison, gangsters, violence and death. They both also contain a surprising plot twist and ending. I personally believe that someone who liked Bad Guys will also like The Merciless.

Both are made by Nam Dae Joong - screenwriter and director, both have a unique sense of humor, in both playes Kim Dong Young, both have a bittersweet taste.

-Both FLs are forced to marry a man who is not their husband who also treats her badly at the beginning.
-The ML starts off having "affairs" with other women and being a playboy.
-The FL both try and elope with their first love but are abandoned in the process which taints their name and only the ML is willing to marry them.
-Both have problems in the husband side of the family

Differences:
-BATC has more talk/focus about revolution, justice and freedom of the female sex
-ML in SIF loves the FL whereas the ML in BATC only married the FL because of revenge
-BATC has a happier ending

- Same kind of dark love where the FL is forced to marry a man she doesn't love
-Two MLs
-Sacrifice of romance for freedom and justice
-Same kind of era
BATC is more darker and adult and borders more of those revenge thai lakorns but has a happier ending

Search: WWW in my view was a little bit influenced by the classic and original fantasy story of "Goblin" with some elements more tied to the background scenes of the story life, like rain, nature itself and the intense feelings that surrounded the story as a whole with strong and versatile characters.

The big difference is that it's centered on a more modern scale where women from the search engine industry with strong careers and personalities challenge themselves to fight against prejudice, injustice and eventually the corrupt society itself!

Moo Jin Hyeok (Voice) and Kim Young Goon (WATCHER) are literally similar male protagonists who use their position in the police force to find the real culprit who killed their loved one to be able to avenge their death. Both are OCN broadcasts, so you are sure to go in for a thrilling ride!

Nirvana in Fire and Money Flower are revenge dramas in which the plot is controlled by the main leads under the guise of an alternate identity. They are both highly intelligent so they rarely make any mistakes and control almost everyone around them like chess pieces.

Remember my xiao Gege feilu (leo si) - Nirvana in fire -he always takes care of Mei cangsu (huge). I think bis charater, same like wenning who always takes care of Wei wuxian. Both of these role-players lose their power, making their guard always take of him. And iya about bromance. Mei changsu with wangkai. Untamed u can seee Wang Yibooooo. Baby boys . Hahaha. This drama is not about romance girl and boy, but u cant stop watching until end. And u Will be replay again... more and more... (The untamed.2?) Haaha

Both female leads fooled into marrying a dimwit husband unwillingly and the husband returned back to normal later on.

It's the sequel

But the cast has not been confirmed yet but let's pray that everyone returns for this one

The two dramas are about undercover police work in the drug world. In both dramas a woman the main character loves gets killed and the main character goes undercover to find her murderer.

If you like The Tale of Nokdu, I think you'd also like 100 Days My Prince! Both have:
- strong female lead with tragic pasts
- male leads trying to figure out who they really are
- a morally ambiguous king
- group of supportive friends/family!!!!
- comedy! romance! history! drama!
- amazing chemistry between the two leads

Don't let the rating average steer you away from giving The Third Charm a chance, read the reviews that are in favour of it first. Go Back Couple uses time travel as a tool to fix the couple's broken relationship (I find this a bit corny), while The Third Charm is a beautiful love story that progresses in a linear 12-year flow. The Third Charm has a more mixed and controversial reception since it started as a rom-com and progressed more as a melo. However, it's a really outstanding slice-of-life that makes you appreciate the complexities of being in a relationship.

• both dramas have the same fluffy romcom feeling.
• both storylines are a bit slow.
• also the female leads are kinda similar
