Kdramas & Cdramas With Obsessive or Psycho Second Male Leads
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE dramas with obsessive or villainous or psycho SML, so here is a list of such dramas. I have also written some description of the SML and how much I loved their character (based on their level of obsession or villainous acts). with my view about the SMLs in them. (In no particular order. )
SPOILER ALERT: THIS LIST CONTAINS MAJOR AND MINOR SPOILERS. THERE WILL BE NO MORE WARNINGS.
-
1. Ashes of Love
Chinese Drama - 2018, 63 episodes
SPOILERS AHEAD:
At first it seems like he slowly descends into villainy but later I realised he was very manipulative even from the beginning. He seems nice but turns into a villain as the drama progresses. Female lead was not the only reason he went to the dark side, but she was a huge part of it.
Also, the actor who plays the SML is SO DAMN GORGEOUS AND GREAT WITH ACTING! There is a scene in it in which he shows so many different emotions in a single scene, without saying a single word.
Absolutely loved his character'S obsession 5/5

2. Encantadora, Choon Hyang
Korean Drama - 2005, 17 episodes
SML is an ahjusshi, older than FML. He is a powerful man, and is willing to do anything to keep FML by his side, he is that obsessed.
I rate his obsession 4/5
-
3. Cruel Romance
Chinese Drama - 2015, 40 episodes
SML is a total villain, and his obsession with the female lead is pretty unhealthy and he seems unhinged at times. He had no redemption qualities.
I rate it 3.5 out of 5 though, because of some reasons.
-
4. O Conto de Nokdu
Korean Drama - 2019, 32 episodes
SML here is also a total villain. Yet he loves the FML. I use the word 'love' instead of 'obsession', because I really believe he did love her. He was not obsessed to the point of keeping her by his side even without her consent. But he was a villain, a heartless baddie who only had a heart for the female lead.

SML doesn't admit that he likes the FML but he does a lot of bad things under the guise of 'righteousness'. It's apparent he is doing it because he likes the FML. He was actually really unlikeable.
