Dramas of Unwanted Female Leads

Oct 14, 2018 05:08 pm

I'm looking for dramas where the female lead is considered unwanted for other reasons such as, being strong, served jail time/criminal, part of a gang, some form of disability (either mental or physical), being a foreigner in wherever the drama takes place, even something smaller like having a scar or burn mark. I'm sure there are other categories I haven't thought of so I'll except all other recommendations as well. I will be making a list of these dramas as I want to start making videos so the more recommendations the better.

My Mister - killed a man (in self-defence)
A Korean Odyssey / Hwayugi - she is widely believed to be cursed / bad luck
Witch's Romance - she has become a mean, workaholic "witch"
She Was Pretty - her looks
Oh My Venus - her weight
Ugly Duckling Series: Perfect Match - a skin condition as a result of an allergic reaction during plastic surgery that affects her for ~ a year
Bring It On, Ghost - she's a ghost / most humans can't see her
The Master's Sun - she can see + is pestered by ghosts and gets very little sleep, which takes a toll on her looks and her behaviour
Another Miss Oh - she is the "other" Oh Hae Yeong - constantly compared to her prettier and more popular classmate / coworker and always coming up short
The Girl Who Sees Scents - after an accident the FL can see scents and one of her eyes changes colour, which is treated like a big deal in this drama for some reason
