Yeah, I have watched a lot of unhappy and disturbing Japanese dramas..Take for example I just finished watching Last Friends..Gosh, I thought the hero in Summer Desire was obsessive, but talk about OCD, and extreme abusive relationship..I was drained and spent after watching this one..😡Nah, I believe K dramas are fantasy..I mean there isn't any drama where I felt this depicted real life..maybe some of the family dramas, but that happens in Indian TV series too. Most of the K dramas are unrealistic so I like to watch them b/c hardly that happens to one in real life. J dramas don't usually have a cold billionaire heroes and the truly depict life lessons and depth. But, K dramas that is what there MO is..lol..I like that since I read lots of YA novels on coldhearted billionaires as well. There has to be a hero who is cold and arrogant..I have no problems w/ that even if they are repetitive, I still watch them.Thai dramas can be found on here w/ eng sub. But, if you want to watch revenge/slap dramas be ready for rape scenes in them..They are usually like that, and so if you feel averse to it don't watch it..They never really show the rape scene of course, they just show the hero trying to forcefully have a physical relationship w/ her, and it is mostly b/c he thinks she betrayed or cheated on him.If you are an avid reader, you'll notice that most of these slap/kiss Thai drama are taken from very old Mills and Boons novels. Their heroes remind me of the author Charlotte Lamb's old Harlequin romance. SInce, I have read most of hers, I don't really have a dislike to those kind of scenes. Of course, I wish that not to happen to anyone in real life. But, since it is a drama and the heroine does make the hero grovel, it is okay. But, the newer Thai dramas have fewer of these kind of dramas. The other ones don't interest me that much. And, I had always wished to see those old Mills and Boons novels turn into films/dramas, and Thai dramas provide that to me.Here is the link:http://lakornsworld2.blogspot.com/If you want recommendations i can provide you w/ a list!
