When it comes to K-Dramas, heroes light up the screen, whereas villains are the ones who end up leaving a mark on viewers' minds. From being hilarious to cunning, being handsome to giving goosebumps, a negative character is the one to shape a drama. They spice things up and engage the audience, leaving viewers questioning or sympathizing or drooling over them with their bad/handsome looks. And so, we have listed below ten negatives of K- Drama that are evil and grab attention.
1. Flower Of Evil- Baek Hee Sung
Flower of Evil is a crime thriller, and actor Kim Ji Hoon gave a phenomenal performance with the darkest hearts, crazy laughter, creepy looks, and extremely "villainy" expressions. Being in a coma for over half of the drama, he suddenly becomes a nightmare the moment he is awake. Having ultimately no legitimate reason for killing makes him dead creepy. Hee Sung portrays a person who kills to relieve his stress and pressure to succeed in his studies as a high schooler who traps his parents in accounting guilty and taking their help to continue his atrocities which awakens the audience.
2. Strangers From Hell- Seo Moon Jo
A serial killer with an attractive smile charming his victims was a perfect fit for Lee Dong Wook. In Strangers from Hell, he became a charismatic dentist with a deceiving sweet nature who turned into a handsome monster taking pleasure in making bracelets with the teeth of his victim. He gets obsessed with Jong Woo to the extent that he mentally nurtures his animalistic side by training him to kill other residents. Lee Dong Wook drives not only his victims but the entire public insane.
3. Sweet Home- Choi Yoon Jae
Lee Do Hyun, in the character of a child mentor, turned into a monster kidnapping, torturing, and raping children in a manner that the kidnapped children didn't think anything wrong could happen to them. He was so manipulative that even the police defended him. Yoon Jae uses his innocent face to mask his mysterious but cowardly nature, making it easy to feel bad for him when Song Wook tortures and hunts him but had no remorse for his actions while he was dying as he mocks Song Wook for being a murderer and considers himself as a victim when kidnapped.
4. Voice- Mo Tae Goo
A CEO of Sungwun Empress during the day and a sociopath murderer by night, played by Kim Jae Wook, is a petrifying portrayal of a sadist. Both versions of his character were loved by the audience. His hobby of killing people using kettlebells at night is vicious. He was both menacing and bizarre, finding joy in having investigators frustrated for being unable to track him down. But when he gets caught, the smirk that he gives brings chills down the spine. His character left the audience both intrigued and terrified.
5. Itaewon Class - Jang Dae Hee
Yoo Jae-Myung, portrayed as someone who can do anything to bring others down. He keeps his company's illegal activities a secret, believes in power, demands everyone to bow down before him when asking for a favor, and despises the weak. He may first appear to be respectable, but later, we find that he enjoys watching others suffer. He no doubt did justice in portraying the criminal side of his character, as his presence ignites rage in viewers.
6. Penthouse - Joo Dan Tae
Joo Dan Tae became a significant reason for viewers' stress as the thirst for revenge took over him when his family got killed. From being a deceitful and abusive father and husband to a sadist murderer, Oh Joo Wan was just phenomenal. The twist of Baek Jun Ki and Joo Dan Tae pushed the audience to their feet and he even earned the title of "Nation's Trash", which everyone accepted without a doubt.
7. Vincenzo - Jang Jun Woo
OK Taecyeon, a handsome hunk in a negative role, gave Song Joong Ki a hard time. His transformation from a doe-eyed assistant to a monstrous villain was highly recommendable. He started with a naive intern and, in mid-drama, turned into a narcissistic sociopath who skillfully manipulates his subordinates and feels excellent after committing murder. Taecyeon's sharp tongue replies and behavior is heaven to watch, nearly making him walk with the whole drama.
8. My Love From The Star- Lee Jae Kyung
Shin Sung Rok looked extraordinarily handsome and creepy in this role. He did justice to his psychopath role with some serious family issues. Though he looked terrifying, one can still try and sympathize with him. Nobody noticed his disturbing demeanor. He was evil, just for the sake of being evil, which indeed was scary.
9. W: Two Worlds Apart- Oh Seong Mu
Kim Ui Sang impressed everyone with this double-sided creation of a character. A father who created the webtoon world, but his daughter enters it and falls in love with the male lead of the webtoon but ends up falling in a murder trap. Later, Seong Mu starts to resist fate as the story continues to be written by another character, but fails, so he enters the webtoon as a villain. As confusing as it sounds, it will take you to the webtoon world, and you will be thrilled. Though it will lead you to sympathize with Seong Mu's character, the drama is no doubt a fantasy thriller.
10. My Name- Choi Mu Jin
Park Hae Soon has nailed the drug lord character who is hunting for revenge, and only death can stop him. He gains the trust of Ji Woo, who is already in a chase for the same. As reported by Click the City, Park Hae Soon did two months of stunt school training to prepare for action sequences in the show, which were to die for. He is a character to watch.
