Not a Murder Story (2024)

Both dramas are Taiwanese crime/thriller dramas with Liu Guan Ting in a main role. Although he plays in "Not a murder story" a failed actor and in "Trinity of Shadows" a police man, he portrays very similar roles in both dramas, where his character goes through a difficult time, gets involved with a murder case that is related to him and ends up doing questionable actions.
The only difference is that his character is a better planer in "Trinity of Shadows" compare to his role in "Not a Murder Story".

Both of these series have very complex and intelligent writing in terms of framing suspicion. They'll have the viewer convinced of who the killer is based on what they've plainly laid out for us, only to then shock us and turn us on a new path towards someone else- again and again.

Both 2024 Taiwanese dramas combine thriller elements with main characters feeling haunted by their life circumstances even before the bodies start racking up.
