The K2 (2016)

Both drama the male lead are body guard. Female lead was from rich family. Romance occured as time goes

These dramas just give me the same vibe. Both of the male leads have a mysterious past that continues to haunt them. Both dramas have political maneuvering in which the male leads are used as pawns in plays for power. And SADLY both dramas have female leads that have like ZERO personality, are REALLY annoying and basically sabotage a drama that could have been a lot better with a competent, likeable female lead.

Both are action packed dramas with large scale conspiracy behind the scenes. The main protagonists of both dramas are victims of this conspiracy and are out for revenge. Romance is also an important part of both dramas, although maybe a bit more in Iris than in The K2.

both FL holding critical position where they are assassin-ed in K2 FL is political leader's daughter has birth secret which cause her trouble ML ex army man who appointed as her bodyguard during this duty he fall in love with her. the crown princess is story of princess who appointed as the crown princess and her journey cause of her position she is target of assassin so a navy officer appointed as her body guard and in end fall in love

The relationship between Ji Chang Wook and Song Yoon Ah (Madame) in the K2, is very similar to the relationship between Jang Hyuk and Lee Mi Sook in Money Flower. Even though Ji Chang Wook is my favorite actor and while the action in the K2 was great, overall Money Flower is a better drama.

Both Male leads are body guards and female leads are rich girl with some sort of PTSD.

In both dramas, the male main lead is framed for the crime he did not commit and is on the run but later returns to take his revenge on the people who cause his pain .

.A main character that is amazing at fighting and is constantly showing everybody else up

.blood, weapons and tooonnnsss of fighting

.Those moments where people underestimate them, and then get proved wrong extremely quickly

.The kind of rich vibes

.Id say the main difference is that Vincenzo is more mafia while K2 is more spy

.I'd also say that Vincenzo seems more international then K2 in terms of speaking other languages and foreign actors ext...

Both shows feature male leads who are incredible martial artists; confident and capable they plot their revenge and execute it with perfection, dealing with whatever hurdles may come at them. Similar series. Both excellent. Excellent fight choreography in both.

Similarities:
- Trained MC (special forces/trained assassin)
- Action packed
- Revenge theme
- MC is somewhat emotionless until they meet a girl
- Troubled past
- MCs are good at what they do

Dissimilarity
- K2 = romance
- Kill it = friendship
- Kill it handles a dark theme (not reccomeneded for kids/under 15)

I recommend this both drama because , Male lead and Female lead
try to solve problem
In one drama explosion and another student murder/suicide

i am surprised no one recommended Vampire Detective yet since the feels are so similar compared to other recommended dramas here. Yoon San and the vampire lady has the same energy as The K2 and his lady boss. in fact whenever Lee Joon fights off the bad guys, his action skills really reminds me of Ji Chang Wook. Lee Joon is such a hugely underrated action star!
