Favorite TROPES: Revenge
Some of the best REVENGE Dramas & Movies! Only adding ones I've personally watched! :) Also on a personal note: I'm weird and usually only love revenge dramas if the ML is the one seeking revenge. I rarely enjoy a revenge drama where the FL is seeking revenge, though there are a few exceptions! ^_^
-
1. O Coração de Sila
Thai Drama - 2019, 27 episodes
IDC what people say about the FL... I will forever be a fan of this revenge drama! :D
-
2. Segredo
Korean Drama - 2013, 16 episodes
If you loved "Secret" do try "Meryem", a Turkish drama. It's basically the same story and so very well done. :)

3. Ondas da vida
Thai Drama - 2017, 15 episodes
legit a classic. still... it was hard to watch at times. the acting is so raw and emotional in this one.

4. Ra Rerng Fai
Thai Drama - 2017, 14 episodes
revenge has never been sexier.... This drama (like most Lakorns) has its flaws, but I can't seem to like it any less. The FL is awesome here and the ML KILLS me with his smirk *slayed*

9. Mai Sin Rai Fai Sawart
Thai Drama - 2015, 16 episodes
Love/Hate relationship with this drama. I hate it and love it equally. I actually understand the ML better than the FL here. Her "reason" putting up with him was supposed to be the backbone of the drama and it... just felt insincere and flat instead. Made no f*n sense. Makes it hard to sympathize with a FL who willingly puts herself in a horrendous situation. :/

-
24. Um Homem Chamado Deus
Korean Drama - 2010, 24 episodes
-
25. Hua Jai Sila
Thai Drama - 2007, 31 episodes
watched this one to compare to the 2019 version, but imho the 2019 version is way superior than this version. The ML is not a great actor here. The acting in general is much more exaggerated as well. I think the worse thing about the older version is that the ML didn't BEGIN with a game plan, wasn't as cold-blooded and methodical as the ML in 2019. That made a HUGE difference for me as to why I prefer the 2019 version. Much better revenge plot.

26. Borisut Bumbut Kaen
Thai Drama - 2009, 15 episodes
#surprised I had this on my not interested list forever due to other comments/reviews but decided to try it anyway out of boredom. Actually REALLY glad I did. I feel like it would have been better at 12 episodes, but I was never bored, so there's that. CRAZY Lakorn but I truly enjoyed it.

27. Roy Lae Sanae Luang
Thai Drama - 2013, 18 episodes
-
28. Itaewon Class
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
-
29. Promessa perigosa
Korean Drama - 2020, 104 episodes
this one I was sooooo hoping would be better. It's okay but had major major issues with pacing and surprising lack of plot. Also the melo is heavy in the melodrama with severely overacting villains.
-
30. Pink Lipstick
Korean Drama - 2010, 149 episodes
one of the better daily (100+ episodes) revenge dramas for sure.
-
31. A Promessa
Korean Drama - 2016, 102 episodes
probably one of the best "daily" style revenge dramas I've ever seen! LOVED.
-
32. Fah Mee Tawan
Thai Drama - 2020, 18 episodes
-
33. Amor de Um Sábio
Japanese Drama - 2016, 4 episodes
oddly enough, this is one of the much more subtle of revenge dramas I've watched. Big age game with FL older and short with only 4 episodes. I don't watch/enjoy a ton of J-Dramas, but when I do, they are usually darker and more thought-provoking like this one.
-
34. O Código da Inveja
Thai Drama - 2020, 17 episodes
really rather enjoyed this one. Female bent on revenge and I loved that part of it!

35. Lucifer
Korean Drama - 2007, 20 episodes

36. Adeus, Sr. Black
Korean Drama - 2016, 20 episodes
