VOTE: Top 30 dramas with horrible endings

Okay, so I am back with another list, you can just call me the queen of list.

Before voting, please read what's written in this description. Please do not vote for dramas just because at the end of that drama the female and male lead characters did not end up together. I think for most dramas a horrible ending would be for the female and male leads to end up together after what transpired throughout the drama. Below is an example of two dramas in which the ending was great, although the two leads did not end up together (MAJOR SPOILER ALERT):

  • Good Bye, My Princess "I don't think a toxic character like the male lead deserved to have had everything go his way. He murdered the female lead family, lied to her, stalked her, threatened her, slapped her, in a rage of jealousy killed her teacher, and tried to kill her best friend. How could their relationship ever recover if they ended up together?"
  • The Rise of Phoenixes "Realistically, there's no way that the female lead would have wanted to be the new emperor's, empress, with everything that happened. I would never want to marry someone whose immediate family killed my mother, and brothers. It wouldn't have been the same romance and love as it was in the beginning because too much happened."
