Netflix Dark Thriller K-drama Karma Reaches #2 on the Non-English Show Chart in Second Full Week of Premiere
Last month in March 2025 K-drama land was all about When Life Gives You Tangerines, the Netflix drama that spanned generations and delivered on tears of joy and sadness. Netflix this month went a totally different genre route and early in April premiered Karma, a thriller tale of greed, betrayal, and revenge that interwoven the lives of six people in increasingly dangerous ways. The drama stars a top notch cast of Park Hae Soo, Shin Mina, Lee Hee Joon, Kim Sung Kyun, Kwang Soo, and Gong Seung Yeon is adapted from a Kakao webtoon of the same name. The drama in its second week of airing has hit #2 on the Netflix non-English speaking chart and vaulted over Tangerines which now sits at #3. It’s nice to have another well-received hit on Netflix to binge for anyone who loves this dark genre.
Just finished the Glory, I was a bit lost without something comparable to watch. This may quench my thirst for another one in a dark genre! Thanks for the update. I’ve never been a fan of Shin Mina although she’s a solid actress. The cast are very strong though.
I am a fan of thriller genre and since there is sexy Park Hae Soo too, so this one’s definitely on my watchlist.
