You might not wanna watch Death Note... or Code Geass... or Overlord, or Attack On Titan. Or Breaking Bad. Ever…
Yes, I understand. And I can say that the first few are VERY stressful. π If you want lighter k-dramas, I recommend My Father Is Strange (hilarious), High Kick, When Life Gives You Tangerines, and Assorted Gems (older drama, still funny though.)
Jung Lucia??? Its been a while since I've seen a proper makjang revenge glow up. Either way I'm here for this…
Ooooh. Very, very grey situation. It also depends how early MS/mystery girl was born, if it was a shorter pregnancy (5 months & below), the baby is definitely dead. But they never specified any of that. Looking forward to seeing the truth...
Some protagonists in k-dramas are villains. Nothing new. Villain protagonists have always existed.
Something like that, but there's actually a few twists on it, I think. I need to watch it fully so I can understand. Also, I feel like I haven't really seen these tropes as main plots in dramas? In a few makjangs or daily dramas with a villain or grey FL, sure. But it's rare.
This is a political thriller, and from what I've read/seen, this FL had a tragic past and it wasn't just about being poor. I don't think she loves the ML either, but they grew up together. Probably abandoned him or betrayed him somehow.
Same! Also is your profile picture the legendary, one and only, makjang villainess ICON SHIN AERI?!
I couldn't really find it anywhere online (it's SUPER hard to find on YouTube as well), so I'll DM you where I found it! I love Yoon Se-Ah, she's so fun to watch! And she kills it in this daily (it came out in 2009, so some scenes show its age lol.) Regardless, I love it.

There's no subs, but I PROMISE it's worth it! (This is how I wanted The Promise to go too lol, I was disappointed at first, but eventually it was worth my time.)
The basic plot is that there's twins: Jung Yu-Hee and Jung Yu-Kyung. (Both played by Kang Seong-Yeon, she does a stellar job from what I've seen so far.) They're separated when Yu-Kyung gets adopted and goes to the US (since she has a heart disease.) Yu-Hee stays in Korea, marries Yoon Sang-Woo (ML... ish?), and goes through a lot with her child because of the evil MIL. Several other characters are intertwined... but no spoilers. This was Lee Chae-Young's breakout hit and it's my first time seeing Yoon Se-Ah play a villain. She's doing an awesome job. The 2nd and 3rd MLs are a bit different too. Even the 3rd FL (Min Seo-Hyun, played by Yoon Se-Ah) is shockingly different with her character arc. Anyways, Yu-Hee disappears and dies, right? Yu-Kyung comes back to Korea, finds out what happened to Yu-Hee, and then decides to take her place for revenge on the villains. Cue corporate drama, love polygons, revenge, and Yu-Kyung playing everyone like they're pawns on a damn chessboard. Legendary.
I HIGHLY recommend this daily drama. 116 episodes, I'm halfway through it... the twists get better and better. And Yu-Kyung is definitely a grey character/FL... and kinda scary lol
Jung Lucia??? Its been a while since I've seen a proper makjang revenge glow up. Either way I'm here for this…
Oh! That sounds awesome!
Yes! I love when the comic relief in a drama is actually funny (which is very rare. It usually feels bizarre and cringy.)
Ha Yoon-Chul too, this show has a lot of Penthouse vibes- wait, so he IS the father?
I'm really excited to rewatch Game of Witches! And I loved Jang Seo-Hee as the FL, once again... I got to predict that she wanted revenge on the evil old chairwoman lol

Exactly! Queen's House definitely gives off some Temptation of Wife vibes (at the moment, I'm obsessed with Wife Returns where there's 2 FLs, both twins. The good twin dies because of the villains, and the rich & cold twin takes her place to get revenge on the villains. And she is RUTHLESS.)
All that screeching she did is why the actress doesn't do daily dramas anymore π "MIN SO-HEEEEEE!!!! YAAAAAA!"

Completely agree with this. Also, are you a teacher by any chance?
Soo-Jung, Ja-Kyung, and Ja-Kyung's parents are some of my faves! I always loved Stella, and I'm so in love with Lucia now lol At least Seri isn't greedy like the rest of the Mins. She's trying to get her money and get out. I respect it. π
I'm getting Kang Ji-Ho vibes from Sun-Jae right now.
Although... Lucia could drug the chairman and pretend to sleep with him... OR do it for real... π
