ML tempted to dark side

Aug 1, 2020 03:41 pm

Please could someone recommend a drama (can be Thai, Chinese, Korean) with the following traits:

- Has to have romance between the ML and FL

- ML is tempted to the dark side. For example if ML’s family is evil and trying to get him to join like in Kularb Gror Petch or FL/SFL is evil and tries to persuade him to the evil side etc.

I love this sort of trope as well although I haven't seen a lot of it. Best example I can think of is Lupin no Musume. Guy doesn't become evil but he does end up abandoning quite a bit of his police principals because of his thief girlfriend. Basically a guy from a police family dates a girl from a thief family but he doesn't know about her thief identity.

The romance is also adorable. It's Japanese though which you didn't mention..

Goodbye My Romance
Moon Lovers
My Country: The New Age - co-ML does a lot of evil things because of his terrible father; romance isn't a strong point in this one, but it has great friendship/bromance
Flower of Evil - currently airing/brand new sounds like something similar?

I think most dramas have the ML turning dark due to revenge, but fall in love with FL against their better judgment. Different from what you're looking for, but maybe you would be interested?
