Înțelepciunea Închisorii (2017)

these 2 dramas also have that "cold blue" dark tones. one is female centered and one is fully male centered, but both are character driven stories

Although the themes are so different,
Both dramas are very unique.
Feels like every episode tells a little story and contributes to the whole big story.
Black comedy.
Every moment is enjoyable, and they are heart-touching; there are moments where you smile so happily.
They both mainly take place in one big closed space.
Quiet dramas with not too much action going on.
Lovable characters.
There is no obvious villain.

Unique setup in both of these dramas where there isnt really a primary "main character". The characters in both of these dramas end up having backstories of their own in a slice of life setting. The only difference would be that Prison Playbook kinda has more of a main character, but hes in the background of a LOT (tens and tens) of other people, which he will soon find out their stories as well

- both shows tells story about prison life/survival and have their characters developing time by time
- the main role from both shows accused guilty of their (too much) self-defense act
- both main roles were initially athletes
- both shows have comedies despite the prison life hardships
- Shark has Ahn Hyun-min character and Prison Playbook has Beobja/Jailbird character which I think both have quite similar entertaining vibes

the context are so different but the writing style and the calm atmosphere are almost identical.
Diary of a Prosecutor are the people who bonds over with the law, while Prison Playbook are the people who bonded by being caught by the law.

similarities despite the differences
- Each episode has a beginning, climax, and a resolution that is why you will not notice that you are at the ending of the drama, but also, you get to know more of the characters and appreciate them more as the episodes unfold.
- chemistry among the main characters and even the supporting characters that make up their office slash/ prison cells.
- mundane everyday thoughts that were beautifully written. monologues and lines that one writes on their diary. It is the everyday, but because by taking record of it, it makes it more memorable.

Both leads end up being convicted as a murderer in prison. Both have people from their past that fight for them. Both, although different, give a very similar vibe off. The only difference is that while "Black Out" seems to follow the story of the male lead being wrongly accused of murder, "Prison Playbook" is with him truly being the murderer.

Both are quite male centric. You can expect for a good bickering and strong brotherhood. Both have similar themes: failures, difficult life, making new friends, moving forward, support each other, fight for a better future. Both dramas remind me of how crucial it is to have a strong support system.
