- both have 2 seasons with similar vibes, exposing the dark side of korea’s society (bullying in military and school)
- same creative directors and similar OSTs
- not for the weak hearted, gruesome and emotional

firstly... even if you haven't watched better days... it's a great movie.. a masterpiece i am not overrating you can see it has the highest c-movie rating
next.. common things are
- bullying and gangs picking on kids ( in better days it's girls while in whc1 it's boys )
- friendship and love ( love is more prominent in better days like friendship is in whc1 but they are portraiyed as friends only throughout the movie )
- overall theme which is dark showing true personality of non caring system and adults which always don't look both side of the story
- i promise you will love them both give it a try!!

Both are action packed stories with focus on friendship instead of romance.
Weak hero is more focused on relationships and emotions, while maintaining great story telling and action bits while Black Knight focuses more on the main story and the main conflict. Black Knight doesn't develop the characters as much but there's still sense of comraderie and the general feeling of vindication is the same

They are both set in high school and school fights are involved. The cover photo is also very similiar and it actor that acts in both dramas.

Both dramas revolve around troubled youth/high school students and strong and heartwarming bromance. Although the plot itself isn't too similar, the vibes in general (youth & school setting, violence & angst, bromance & mostly male cast) are.

It's not bullying here, but same dark high school vibes.
the girl supplies drugs, and other kids are in this loop they can't get out of and fight for normal lives.

Ayumu passes an entrance exam of a high school with help of Yuko, her best friend, but Yuko fails and blames Ayumu for her failure. Broken heart from the broken friendship, Ayumu shuts her up and gives up making new friends in high school. But Manami, the most popular girl in her class, is more than happy to accept her as her friend, so she starts to enjoy her new life. But when Manami misunderstands that Ayumu is trying to steal her boyfriend, her insidious bullying to Ayumu begins. With nobody to turn to as her mother concerns more about her weak brother, and her teacher has her own problem, she is pushed to the limit of losing herself. (Source: AsianWiki)
