Do you any good k-drama with dark and revenge theme 

  • Secret | full disclosure, I dropped it because it was getting too cruel for my taste. This one is dark and gritty. 
  • Cruel City
  • Come and Hug Me | it's the antagonist taking revenge.
  • Voice

Much lighter revenge dramas:

  • Lawless Attorney 
  • Healer | you will need to suspend your disbelief on this one. Plot is a bit messy, but it's entertaining. 
  • City Hunter | starts out good, but sizzles out and drags towards the end. 
  • Mask | it's the antagonist taking revenge. 
  • Pinocchio 

Money Flower
