The Worst of Evil (2023)

Same vibe , 2 cops that infiltrate to a gang and try to hide their identity. Both coming from poor background. Lots of fight scenes.

Luo Xiang, a former narcotics agent, faked his death during an undercover operation. Five years later, he's living under a new name, but needs to pretend to be his old self and once again infiltrate the drug cartel, dealing with his former lover, brothers and enemies, to finally successfully complete the mission and find out who's pulling the strings.

Both deal with undercover crime investigations. Similar gritty and gripping stories. Cruel City was a little less organized with its plot and The Worst of Evil had a better setting/cinematography overall, especially being set in the 90’s. But if you liked one, you will probably enjoy the other.

Si te gusta la acción o el tema de las drogas como los encuentros, la amistad o los engaños, te podría gustar esta otra serie. No son iguales pero si que se pueden llegar a parecer. Los dos también se sitúan en años anteriores en vez de en la actualidad.
La verdad que yo primero empecé a ver Narcosantos y no me arrepiento de haber continuado con The Worst Evil.

Basically if you like dramas about undercover cops infiltrating cruel gangs with damn good action, try it!

Set in Seoul in the 1990s, a former DJ starts selling a new powerful drug nicknamed "Gangnam Crystal" in city nightclubs after mastering a gangster organization. Since the police know little about the origin of such drugs, in order to crack down on this rampant drug trafficking organization, rural police officer Park Jun Mu is assigned to sneak into the organization, only to discover that his wife, Yoo Eui Jung , also a detective, has volunteered to participate in this dangerous mission and seems to have an unspeakable past with the heinous underground drug king. Park Jun Mu in this drug-related mission, not only does he wholeheartedly fight the drug cartel, but also works hard to protect his wife's safety at all times.

Preety similar concept
ML is same for both drama and some of the supporting cast
Action, thriller, crime, mystery
Something related to Gangnam, ganster & all

Both productions have a similar premise where policemen go undercover to catch the drug lords, earning the trust of gangleaders and climbing the ranks rapidly

Both seem to be gritty, almost noiresque stories of police lives. Leads are established and amazing actors, there is a thread of tension throughout each episode (Connection is just beginning but I think it'll be keeping up the pressure).

A former spy hiding his real identity to his wife. Kinda give similar vibes in husband and wife relationship
