The ones I saw and liked so far are:
- Misty
- The Good Wife
- Mistress
- Are you Human Too?
- Mask
- Descendants of the sun
- W

Has anyone mentioned “The Concubine”, a Korean historical movie 2012 it’s a kinda triangle passion with deceives, I think it was well done. I can’t remember where I watched it, but it was a legal channel…

I enjoyed reading the different suggestions. I was also looking for more serious dramas, and this thread kind of helped me out.
Here are some ‘mature’ dramas (mature in that they aren’t too childish):
Mask (she enters a ‘contract’ marriage and has to act as her doppelganger, but the tone of the story is dark and threatening for most of the show)
Sandglass (a 1995 drama; this drama follows the lives of a gangster, a prosecuter, and the daughter of a casino owner who are friends. It explores the politics of the era. Ending was executed well)
Prison Playbook (a comedy in a prison cell that also includes serious life issues)
White Christmas (somewhat of a psychological thriller…if I say anymore, I will spoil the story line)
How to Meet the Perfect Neighbor (the ML character change through the show is gold)
Number Six (I didn’t like this one, but it is definitely on the mature side)
Beautiful Mind (a medical drama about a doctor who cannot sympathize with his patients)

City Hunter maybe ? I remember really enjoying it 
there is some romance but it is not the main plot at all The moon that embraces the sun was also very good (there is romance but in a realistic way)

I’ve watched quite a lot of kdramas, and if you’re looking for some mature ones I would recommend It’s Okay That’s Love and SKY Castle. There’s also a J- drama called Kakafukaka that was mature language and is rated 17+ on Viki. Hope these help!

Because this is my First Life ( Title screwy , IKR ? ) is about as ‘mature’ as it gets, lot’s of eye raising moments as it highlights issues with a) sexual assault , b) wife-beating c) marital rape d) sexual harassment f) equality issues . g) same sex attraction …in one sentence , everything effed up about being a woman in Korea …the real Korea …but it is a good show

y’know, I really thought VIKI was for more a mature audience, but mostly all I see is the highschool to college groups,
oh I know there are other dramas with older people. but look, theres a bunch of “older” folk like me watching these dramas, why can’t they produce some thing for us?
mysteries, yes, scifi yes, time travel yes and more! even the office scene is not good either. and why do we have to go through with someone getting back at someone for something. a lot of the dramas mentioned were good too
and I see this is a couple of years old, and its still like it was then, and most of them aren’t on here now

I wish Viki would renew the license for City Hunter because it is not available in the States right now.

I have watched those three , awesome
Just Between Lovers is a great choice. The plot is serious and realistic, and it’s much more ‘mature’ than most kdramas out there. I just finished it and thought it was very well done. Give it a try!

?? Maybe because middle aged people are already married for the most part and not doing the new romance stuff. They are doing the ‘World of the Married’ adultery and revenge stuff.

This is a sweet romantic love story with a mature couple/met when they were young and story will go back to younger years. Great Ending!
