Both are darker dramas with psychopaths and aren't afraid to show very violent scenes. They have a lot of focus on mental health and the slow downfall of the characters as they deteriorate mentally and start to go insane.

Both stories are violent but powerful. The plot is not the same but you feel the same sense of desperation and gloom.

actually similar
gives off the same eerie atmosphere and the psycho killer is just as sexy (lee dong wook)
its not the same plot although both of the MC finds their true 'hobby'

Both SFH and Burning are brilliant psychological thrillers. Both MLs aspire to be writers while struggling in society because of their financial status. Moonjo and Ben are seriously brothers from different mothers too ^^

The villain is trying to groom the victim to become another villain. Bloody and grotesque scenes are also similar in both dramas.

It is the people around the protagonists who drive them to madness...in both of them they are made out to be crazy, more so than they are...

SIMILARITIES: (no or really slight spoilers)
- dark concept
- man dragged into dangerous world
- a lot of violence and blood
- morally grey characters and their doings
- fast paced story
- amazing visuals and ost
- portraited torture and sadicstic characters
- Seo Moonjo & Yongwoo relationship can be viewed similar to VegasPete from KP
- Moonjo and Vegas can be considered as similar characters (altough Vegas is more morally grey character, when Moonjo is rather a villian

DIFFERENCES & WHAT TO KNOW
- KP thai drama, SFH korean drama
- KP is definitely lighter than SFH, it contains comedy, which isn't included in SFH
- SFH is more gorey than KP
- SFH isn't exactly a BL (in my opinion there is a strong chemistry + a lot of details that are a bit spicy, but there's no kissing etc. in SFH)
- SFH is a disturbing horror, while KP is more action themed romance

Parasite is based more on moral focus.
These two drama and movie are different sides of the same coin.

If u enjoyed one you'll love the other both have ml that are surrounded by people that seems life threatening and focuses on their unrealiable narrative and psych

Although Ogre is a bit humorous, it's still dark and intriguing. At some point, it gives similar vibes because of the weird neighborhood, creepy neighbors, insane people, and mysterious crimes happening there.

Both have a character that's an outsider arriving at a place that holds secrets. Both are thrillers with mystery and psychological elements. Both have unsettling characters.
Recommended by Eslic
Both are psychological & creepy but pigpen is more dark. The beginning of it will give kinda strangers from hell vibes somewhere. You'll feel those ominous & spooky vibes as you have felt in strangers from hell. & yeah gaslighting stuffs is here too with a bunch of creepy & strange people.
