Your Honor (2024)

A public official, a Judge in this case, discovered his son committed a crime and hid it while believing it was only a mistake. When the truth of the matter is, his son did plan the crime and led his father to believe otherwise.

A public official discovered that their child/children was involved in a crime. Out of their love for them and against the oath they took, they decided to hide the truth.

Both star Son Hyun Joo and feature a strained father-son (or father figure) type relationship that results in crime and tragedy.

Both shows share the same screenwriter ..... both equally engaging with tour de force casts members

Both shows feature morally complex characters who make difficult choices in the face of impossible situations. The protagonists are not inherently good or bad, but rather driven by a mix of good intentions and self-preservation.

Both shows create a tense and suspenseful atmosphere, keeping the audience on the edge of their seats as the plot twists and turns.

Kvodo/Your Honor and its Korean remake, much like A Normal Family, based loosely on Herman Koch's novel The Dinner, dive into family feuds entangled in criminal affairs. Each story portrays the lengths parents will go to protect their children, blurring moral lines in the process. These dramas masterfully explore the consequences of loyalty and deception when faced with impossible choices. For fans of tense, morally complex narratives where family bonds clash with the law, these are solid recommendations that deliver gripping, real-world stakes.

Both stories involve fathers doing immoral things to protect their sons who areinvolved in a crime.
