I still don’t understand why I can’t get the cool drama box when I copy and paste the links to dramas anymore, but that’s a me problem. :grin:

I recommend the drama “Mouse”, it is one of my favorite dramas. It has an interesting plot and a lot of twists and turns. The ending is surprising.

J’ai adoré aussi (je l’ai regardé 2 fois) ! Mais , lol, je suis fan de Ji Chang Wook donc forcément ! Là je viens de terminer Warrior Baek Dong Soo et c’était génial… Et si pas encore vu, il faut absolument regarder : “If you wish upon me” c’est excellent !

Hi, i just used google to understand. i also watched this drama twice.
i didn’t watch “Warrior Baek Dong Soo” but i watch “if you wish…” & even helped translating it into Arabic & it was a good drama as well.

The following is Healer and Viki is linguistically messing with me once again.

Viki has regular issues with cookies. Years to be more exact. Which is why links pull up previews in random 5-6 main languages on Viki (English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French, Japanese and Chinese).

It’s a lottery really :smiling_face_with_tear:

I didn’t watch too many thrillers over the past months, but the years before there were quite a few and all kinds of them:

Hopefully the dramas you would like to watch have license in your region.

You still have access to Signal? Lucky you! I wanted to add it on the list but it was removed from Viki for me :face_holding_back_tears:

No, access for me either, it had license, then was gone for quite a while then was back for a year I think, I watched it back then, and now it is off limits in my region once again. I wanted to mention it, since I don’t know where you can watch what drama.

My favourites on Viki:

An intense thriller/suspense drama that is great from beginning to end with some really good acting performances.
https://www.viki.com/tv/37073c-flower-of-evil

A great crime/mystery series, not for the faint-hearted. It is based on a book written by the first Korean criminal profiler. It depicts real cases that happened in Korea, it is slow paced and mostly character-driver and it has a dark atmosphere and an award worthy performance by Kim Nam Gil.
https://www.viki.com/tv/38312c-through-the-darkness

One of the most recent additions. Based on a book, this series has amazing cinematography and an interesting mystery. Not for everyone though, since it is pretty slow paced.
https://www.viki.com/tv/39929c-lies-hidden-in-my-garden

Last but not least, my favourite. Beyond evil is a slow paced, character driven drama (so once again, not for everyone) that deals with many different themes like stigma, grief and justice in a very delicate manner. The acting performances by the two main leads are fantastic. Shin Ha Kyun’s performance, especially, is one of the best I have watched. The characters are very interesting and have unique dynamics.

If you get a chance to watch this drama, I’d love to know what you think of it. Also, unlike other polished dramas, this one shows the life we encounter every day. :wink:
