Dark themed Romance Dramas (Mainly BL)

I would recommend these dramas if you like a bittersweet romance or like a dark themed romance. It's also dramas that include toxicity, but not all of them. I have not finished all of these. This list is not in any particular order. I try not to write spoilers, but my writing may CONTAIN SPOILERS. So just be wary of that.

    If you like watching toxic relationships with Dominant/Submissive type of trope, but want something that's not too intense. Then I suggest this, but be wary it is a cousin relationship trope. However, if you just imagine that doesn't exist then the story itself is quite interesting. And yes I would say there are scenes considered spicy, but not mega spice.

    If you want to feel intense emotion such as sadness, then I suggest watching this. The OST is beautiful, the storyline is magnificent, but the only downside is that it's a sibling trope. So if you hate that, then don't watch it, but I REALLY suggest putting that aside because the story itself is so good.

    This is another BL, and yes it does have spicy scenes in it. I personally believe it's a good show, like it can really get you immersed into the storyline. Maybe it's because I got emotionally attached to the characters, but I just love how all the characters aren't just npc's. They actually have their own little storylines, also there is a side couple so that's fun.

    If you like revenge driven stuff, then this will be a good watch. That is if you like the male love interest being a crazy. Other then that I do believbe that this series is detailes especiallly with the backstories as to why the characters act the way that they do. I mean i already read the mahwa years back, and didn't expect it to get a live adaption. However I'm happy it did, everything about this series is good from the characters, details and the OST.

    Honestly, Ming is annoying. However, this series does have spicy scenes and the storyline is quite interesting. Especially if you like toxic relationships then you should go and watch this.

    I watched the spicy version, but there is a clean one. However, this series was confusing, but once you get it. The story is actually so interesting and I feel like the spicy scenes are a little bonus.

  • The Prosecutor's Proposal

    Another toxic BL, if you love the enemies to lovers trope with consistent toxcity then i think that you would love this. To me, their realtionship is literally toxic to the end, but both of them just accept it. Also they got that killer's son X victim's son dynamic, which i find really interesting. If you like a REAL enemies to lovers, then this series is built for you. And I'm talking not making up in like two espisodes.

    The story is annoying at the start, but it does gett better. If you like the Dominant/Submissive trope then you'd love this series. If you like Revenged Love, then you'd probably like this too, since they remind me of the main couple. It's not the best, but it still has it's good qaulities.

    I'm yet to finish, but don't be warded off by my low rating. This show is just intense for me, since it's a heavily dark drama. WARNING: SA is involved. This is recommended for those who like heavily dark stuff.
