Night Has Come (2023)

Both series have the characters get transported into a game of survival and both stories explore the themes of survival, deception, betrayal, and psychological warfare, as the characters face various challenges and dangers in the games.

They both are based off of starting with having some people killed and trying to find the killer before all of them dies

Both are korean thrillers
High school students
Both play dangerous games (even though they're very different)
smart FL

Both go to rather excruciating extents in ‘executing’ participants for a ‘game’. Though epic concepts it’s guilty to find that we find these kind of violent gore kdramas as attractive.

Same "Mafia Game" type drama. Students locked up to play the game. Mystery vibes.

High school students fighting for their lives
minds of 17 year olds used in both the dramas
slight sprinkle of romance
plot is intriguing anyhow
in both .......

give it a watch
and see for yourself ;)

The kdrama and the Japanese movie series are so similar and give the same vibes.

both are about students locked in an isolated area they can't leave with one or more of them being "mafia" or "werewolf" that need to kill a person at night. "Citizens" or "villagers" have to vote out the mafia to win. They also both have a roles similar to police and doctor.
