The K-drama industry is best known for its romantic feel-good stories, which might quickly drive away anyone who is not interested in seeing people fall in love with each other.

But what if we told you that Korean television is also home to some of the most interesting revenge stories the world has ever seen?

Here are 7 of the best revenge K-dramas for fans of the genre:

All of the dramas on this list have managed to refresh one of the most banal and tiresome plot devices in television history - the revenge story. While Western shows continue to produce basically the same revenge dramas over and over again, Korean writers have managed to easily break out of the conventions of the genre, giving fans quintessentially Korean shows that still feel surprisingly international.

It's no coincidence that some of the shows on this list were co-produced by Netflix and Disney +, as major American producers have long since realized the power of K-drama and have spent the last few years trying to introduce Western audiences to this immensely interesting TV industry.

Even if you hate the K-drama industry, check out at least one of the shows on this list - we are confident that they will change your opinion of Korean television and start your obsession with Asian revenge shows!

Here are all the K-dramas mentioned: King of Pigs, Bloodhounds, Weak Hero Class 1, Taxi Driver, Vigilante, Itaewon Class, Marry My Husband.
