| Designated Survivor: 60 Days / int_237404cc | comment |
Ironic Echo: Han Na-gyeong tells Seo Ji-won that "an Agent's devotion is not a virtue, but a duty". He later says it back to her when she feels guilty about her refusal to back down having resulted in her boss being framed for murder and her friend losing his job. Seo adds that it's such a cliché it should be carved in stone. A couple scenes later, Oh tells Kim that people shouldn't carve their proverbs about quiet devotion into stone when they can't live up to it. | |

Related in the Adaptation | |
| Designated Survivor: 60 Days / int_24067bb9 | comment |
Related in the Adaptation: Inverted. Rather than going the route of having Si-wan, Leo's equivalent, be President Park's biological son who just happened to be conceived right after the First Lady's break-up with her ex, Choi had a son with her ex-husband and lived as a single mother when they met. | |

Book Ends: The series begins with Park getting fired from his post in the Blue House and becoming substitute President later that day, and ends with his associates quitting their new jobs because working for him has raised their standards, and asking him to run for President with them as staff. | |

Eagleland | |
| Designated Survivor: 60 Days / int_7a265daa | comment |
Eagleland: General Brown, the commander of United States Forces Korea, is a Type 3; while he's very gung-ho about attacking North Korea, and can be abrasive at times, he's fully willing to listen to reason, and no one can really blame him for how he feels (North Korea being the initial primary suspect in the attack). | |

Fatal Family Photo | |
| Designated Survivor: 60 Days / int_8560c16f | comment |
Fatal Family Photo: Subverted. Much like the original, when Major Jang tells Acting President Park that Sergeant Lee's wife is about to give birth and that Sergeant Jo is newlywed, you think they're doomed. But the one who ends up dying is Major Jang. | |

Ascended Extra | |
| Designated Survivor: 60 Days / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra: Sort of. In the original, the president is an entirely posthumous character, whose only real appearance is the few seconds we see on the TV before the attack. While still mostly posthumous, President Yang is considerably more fleshed out, with him personally firing Mu-jin (Kirkman was dismissed by the Chief of Staff on the president's instruction), and appearing in multiple flashbacks. | |

Dies Differently in Adaptation: The death of Jason Attwood's son was a case of You Have Outlived Your Usefulness, but Jae-min's death was clearly an accident. | |

Adaptational Wimp | |
| Designated Survivor: 60 Days / int_d500b978 | comment |
Adaptational Wimp: Compared to Tom Kirkman, Mu-jin has it a bit worse; Tom lost his job because he refused to play the political game, but Mu-jin lost the job because a diplomatic exchange with America went wrong; said exchange going south was more or less solely Mu-jin's fault. | |

Adaptational Context Change | |
| Designated Survivor: 60 Days / int_f33ff01c | comment |
Adaptational Context Change: Obviously, being set in Korea, this adaptation changes things that don't have a direct equivalent in American politics, or are more relevant in Korean matters of state, such as Oh being made Minister of Defense instead of Vice President, seeing as South Korea doesn't have Vice Presidents, or the people being targeted being Northern refugees instead of Muslims. In the third season of the original show, one of the issues dealt with was Kirkman promising his transgender sister-in-law to promote trans rights and failing. Instead, Mu-jin promises to legalize gay marriage in South Korea. He makes the promise to a lesbian actress he is not related to. | |
