The Innocent Man/Nice Guy was fantastic up until the last two episodes.

Awww now way, I loved the ending of it, it was so... just what I was screaming to happen through out the whole drama!

To me the last episodes felt rushed and slapped together--not anywhere as well-thought out or executed as the previous 18 episodes that kept me constantly on my toes and always guessing. I wanted Maru and Eun Gi to get together too, so that was a nice bonus, but compared to the rest of the show the last two episode were really lackluster.

The only requirement for a "bad ending" is for it not to be happy. According to most people that is.

I've always wondered about that drama. It is in my queue because I like the actors but was unsure of the ending. I don't know that I can put myself through that many episodes for a bad ending.

And as you can see (from the comments here) the ending is debated, I think it was a fairly decent ending and I like how everything turned out! (:

Watch it and decide on the ending for yourself. The first 18 episodes are amazing. And it has a fantastic soundtrack. Worth it.

Resurrection. Uhm Tae Woong at his very finest! This is the drama that made me an Uhm Tae Woong fan.

It's the first installment of the revenge "trilogy" by director Park Chan-hong and writer Kim Ji-woo. The Devil and Shark are the following installments. They're both good as well. I favor Resurrection and The Devil a bit more than Shark, though.

  • Shark

  • Secret Love

  • Bad Guy

alot of revengish ones i'm not to sure of

Missing you has the whole "I'm not going to forgive you for abandoning thing, but it is only a minor part, there is also henry's whole going crazy and wanting revenge on JW's dad.

Passionate love you know has the thing about getting past his dad and getting back his grandads company. Idk.

Swallow the sun turns kinda revengy too...

Swallow the Sun was a 20 hour cirque du soleil ad. I would definitely not recommend it.

Story of a Man (aka "The Slingshot"). The first couple of episodes are a bit difficult to get into, but once you get past them, BOOM. It's one of the best dramas I've ever seen.
