Best Thriller/Horror K-drama

This is my Favorite Genre, so I listed some of the best drama I have watched so far, most of those are OCN productions (Kings of this Genre<3).

All are tagged as horror, but not necessarily scary (at least for me!). I wrote what I loved or the prominent feature of each drama, so you can choose what to watch according to your own preference :D
