Article: Top 10 Blood-Curdling Psychopath Characters In K-Drama

The primary reason we watch K-dramas is for the swoon-worthy romance, but lately, there have been so many excellent thriller dramas that have captured our attention and garnered much more engagement! Although the terrible behavior of each psychopath makes them frightening evildoers, their sinful aura and menacing look make them incredibly alluring. Sometimes, rather than condemning someone for their fault, we even esteem it and make every effort to comprehend who they are as someone. Some psychopaths have left a lasting impression. In addition to a strong storyline and effective directing, the performers bring something unique to the formulae of Korean dramas. The performances of the actors greatly influence the ambiance of the show. Below are the top 10 blood-curdling psychopath characters in K-Drama.

1. Seo Moon Jo (Strangers From Hell) 

In his 2019 series Strangers from hell or Hell Is Other People, actor Lee Dong Wook portrayed the psychotic dentist Seo Moon Jo. He resides with odd neighbors in a spooky dorm. The audience found viewing the show discomfiting because of his frightening murderer persona.

 

2. Jang Jun Woo (Vincenzo) 

The villainous character of Jun Woo, as portrayed by Ok Taecyeon, shocks the audience. In the drama, he displays a split identity in which, in Cha Young's eyes, he is an adorable, carefree, and naive intern. He was, however, doing all the incorrect and unlawful tasks behind everyone else's back. Jun Woo knew what he was doing was sinful but diverted his step-brother into a puppet so he could be held responsible for all mishaps. He is a crazy assassin obsessed with collecting the wristwatches of his victims, and he is anything but a straightforward killer.

 

3. Baek Hee Sung (Flower Of Evil)

Psychopathic serial killer Baek Hee Sung was portrayed by Kim Ji Hoon. He became the most sought-after co-conspirator in a case involving serial killings after emerging from a coma. And Hee Sung immediately begins killing people once more. He exudes calm and collected aura in his persona. He deserves praise for doing such an excellent job in his role. One of the best performers in Korean dramas, Kim Ji Hoon, is renowned for playing psychotic roles to perfection.

 

4. Mo Tae Goo (Voice) 

In just a few minutes, actor Kim Jae Wook, who made a guest cameo in the drama Voice, took over the plot. People began to view him differently because of his perfect portrayal of the cold-blooded, doomed Human Hunter Mo Tae-goo. He made the villain appear admirable, although his character had perpetrated such an awful thing. He was the most fashionable villain ever thanks to his gorgeous fit-in outfit!

 

5. Jeong Seon-Ho (Hello Monster)

Jeong Seon-ho (played by Park Bo-geom) turns to the shady side and holds a knife in the drama Hello Monster? We are always in awe of his acting talent whenever a deadly aura imaged his gorgeous face. Although he is a psychopath in this drama, you start to feel sorry for him and see both the good and the evil in him. He is a clever, dispassionate sociopath and a serial killer with a difficult upbringing.

 

6. Shin Sung Rok (My Love From The Star) 

In his 2013 television series My Love From The Star, actor Shin Sung Rok portrayed the psychotic killer Lee Jae Kyung.

8. Namgoong Min (Girl Who Sees Smells)
