Família Graciosa (2019)

Another drama about a dysfunctional chaebol family and the lengths they are willing to go in order to gain7keep the power; lying, stealing, corruption, murder! Everything is very dramatically underlined by a sweeping score!! Magnificent! Another makjang, murder mystery, revenge, deep secrets drama! So much fun to watch!

Just like in Graceful Family in Adamas there is an evil rich chaebol family that runs a conglomerate and has a very similar secret unscupulous corporate division to cover up their crimes and clean up their messes without any regard to the law. In Graceful Family it was called TOP, in Adamas - Team A.

Both dramas revolve around revenge theme against the rich and powerful for what they believe in. The protagonists both have to use their wits to not fall into the antagonists' control and traps, while trying to convince people of their intentions and gaining allies. Both dramas contains much suspense although Doctor Prisoner may be a bit darker than Graceful Family.

If your looking for a badass female lead then GF is what you're looking for, the business side of the show and a family trying to take over a comapny gives huge GF vibes.

Similarities:
- Romance
- Chaebol
- Family feud
- Smart/badass FMC and MC
- Great plot
- Slight comedy

Disimilarities:
- Nothing to do with North Korea
- Less romance in GF
- GF is focused on the MC trying to take over the company

Both are from the chaebol community. Both dramas have a similar genre: family drama, crime, mystery, and a bit of romance.
But in Graceful family, the daughter in law was the one murdered.

Both have the following: Dark and mysterious plot but with a mixture of comedy, bad ass and smart women, twisted families, strategies, and incredibly classy OST. You will want to know each and every character in the story, will love and hate them, and also understand them for what they stand for and how they ended up the way they are. Highly recommended.

Similarities between dramas:
- Both dramas tell a story about FL plotting revenge to a powerful family and will do whatever it takes for the revenge to be successful.
- Both FL are pretty, rich and smart (might I say badass).
- Both FL's parents were murdered (Eve: dad, Graceful Family: mom)
- Both dramas portrayed how rich and powerful families are full of scandals.
- Both FL have a "sidekick" to help plotting the revenge. (Eve: her fake mom, and Graceful Family: a lawyer)
- Both FL have rough childhoods.

rich person doing crimes, other rich person uncovers them.
they also just give of the same rich people problems plot

Mystery Thriller created by the same pair of writer/director. One of the leads is a law practitioner. Leads join forces to unveil secrets behind the death of someone dear.

Similar yet different dramas but it does revolves# around the chaebol family and their lives. However in Queen of Tears, the lead are already married. When watching Queen of Tears' family dinner part in the show, it just reminds me of graceful family.

Graceful Family is way shorter than Unfamiliar Family. And while Unfamiliar Family is all about suspense and is a slow-burn, Graceful Family is all about angst and a rushed romance. This may also be attributed to the fact that Unfamiliar Family is 100+ eps while Graceful Family is only 16.
The plots of these two is totally different, however, they have one subplot that makes them similar.
!! SPOILERS AHEAD!!
!!DO NOT READ IF YOU DO NOT WANT SPOILERS!!
!!YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!
In Unfamiliar Family, the eldest daughter gets a divorce because she finds out that her husband is gay. This discovery destroys bother her and her husband and they struggle with their separation and coming to terms with his true identity.
Graceful Family has the same plotline. The eldest son of the family is a transgender (so he's actually a female who likes males). When the wife finds out, the two divorce.
Bother of these subplots also have the similarity of the wife desperately trying for children but her husband not cooperating.

i found this dramas very similar although graceful family was quite better. they are both about very rich families, conspiracies, being untouchable, cult like groups, daughter in the family exiled or treated unfairly, daughter meeting a helper/guy that becomes a support system. AND most of all the villans, both dramas have the kind of villan you hate to love or love to hate. they were very good at being evil but somehow they got my sympathy. in both dramas the villlan had an unexplainable fondness with the male lead. graceful family is better because the leads have better chemistry and there was no forced/cringe romance like in the k2.

Makjang and obnoxiously rich families, and female leads who try to navigate and find the culprits to unjustly murders.

Both searching for what really happened about a crime, in the past and in the present. Lot's of suspicion and little clues throughout. Teamwork of a detective and wife, and a attorney and heiress.

Similarity
* Both dramas have leads parent framed by rich family
* Both drama has the reward of punishing the Antagonist in the last few episodes
